KOLKATA: Bengal CM Suvendu Adhikari on Wednesday announced the enforcement of the Citizenship Amendment Act (CAA) in the state and said illegal immigrants not covered under the Act will be arrested and handed over to the BSF for deportation. “The Act is being enforced in the state from today… BSF will get in touch with BDR (Bangladesh Rifles, now known as Border Guard Bangladesh) and deport them,” Adhikari said after a meeting with BSF officers at Nabanna. . Hindus, Sikhs, Buddhists, Jains, Parsis and Christians who entered India till Dec 31, 2024, to flee religious persecution in Bangladesh, Pakistan and Afghanistan can apply for citizenship under CAA, as per the Central govt notification issued in Sept last year. Members of the six communities can stay in India legally even without valid passports. The home ministry had in May 2025 issued fresh guidelines regarding the identification and deportation of illegal immigrants from Bangladesh. It also set up two empowered committees to process applications for citizenship. “The central govt sent a notification to the state govt on May 14, 2025, asking them to hand over illegal immigrants to BSF. The earlier govt opposed granting of citizenship under the Act and also did not enforce the order,” the CM said.About the AuthorRohit KhannaRohit Khanna covers sectors like government finance, economy, industry and issues related to financial crime.End of ArticleFollow Us On Social MediaVideos’India Won’t Tolerate Any Form Of Nuclear Blackmail’: Rajnath Singh In South KoreaWho Is Ryan Williams?

India and South Korea on Wednesday signed two memorandums of understanding (MoUs) related to self-propelled air defence systems and directed energy weapon systems (that include high-power microwaves and laser beams) during defence minister Rajnath Singh’s visit to Seoul, a defence source told TOI. “Both future-oriented projects have a strong make-in-India focus,” the source said. Two agreements between India’s L&T and South Korea’s Hanwa Co Ltd were signed. The pacts are expected to facilitate enhanced collaboration between defence industries of both countries and promote technology cooperation and capacity building, according to a ministry statement. Hanwha and L&T had earlier tied up to provide the Indian Army with 100 K9 Vajra-T 155mm tracked self-propelled howitzers under a 2017 contract. Later, an additional order for 100 more howitzers was finalised. Rajnath and minister of national defence for South Korea, Ahn Gyu-back, held bilateral discussions, reviewed defence cooperation and discussed ways to further expand collaboration. Both sides acknowledged the growing convergence between India’s Act East Policy and South Korea’s regional strategic vision, reiterating their commitment to strengthening defence ties in line with the shared objectives of maintaining a free, open, inclusive and rule-based Indo-Pacific.End of ArticleFollow Us On Social MediaVideos’India Won’t Tolerate Any Form Of Nuclear Blackmail’: Rajnath Singh In South KoreaWho Is Ryan Williams?

NEW DELHI: Even as challenges to several provisions of PMLA are pending review before a three-judge bench of Supreme Court, the Patna high court on Monday reiterated the powers conferred on Enforcement Directorate under the Act, and said the central agency was not bound to share ECIR (enforcement case information report) with an accused as it was not a statutory document and neither was it equivalent to an FIR registered by the police reports Pradeep Thakur. While dismissing a writ petition seeking to quash an ECIR registered by ED, Justice Arun Kumar Jha of Patna HC said, “If ECIR is an internal document of the department, no question arises of quashing the same as the said document is akin to a private document created for initiation of a proceeding, and it may be so that no proceeding might be initiated pursuant to the said document and the proceeding may even be dropped. Therefore, a person, as a matter of right, cannot claim quashing of the ECIR.”. The court said that unless the predicate offence itself was quashed, ECIR proceedings would ordinarily survive. The HC rejected the importation of ‘Miranda Rights’ of the US into PMLA and accepted ED’s submission that Miranda warnings had no legal force in India and they could not be grafted into Section 50, adding that Indian statutory safeguards were sufficient. Any protection under self-incrimination is not allowed under PMLA. “Miranda Rights have no legal force in the Indian legal system as our system has incorporated these rights by way of various statutory provisions. In absence of incorporation of these principles under the PMLA, these rights could not be granted in Section 50 of the PMLA,” the ED said. Miranda Rights are legal protections in the US that require police to inform suspects of their constitutional rights before custodial interrogation.End of ArticleFollow Us On Social MediaVideos’India Won’t Tolerate Any Form Of Nuclear Blackmail’: Rajnath Singh In South KoreaWho Is Ryan Williams?

Now, it has a ring to it that could launch a thousand toffee ads. PM Narendra Modi landed in Italy early Wednesday, greeted his counterpart Georgia Meloni and, much to the delight of the political paparazzi, handed her a packet of ‘Melody’. Curiously, the name of the Parle toffee rhymed with what the internet has been calling the bonhomie between the two premiers for three years. The 12-second video of the ‘chocolaty’ exchange between PM Modi and Meloni crossed 10 crore views within hours. “PM Modi brought us a gift — a very, very good toffee: Melody,” Meloni said as Modi raised the packet before both broke into a hearty, knowing laugh. “Thank you for the gift,” she later posted on X. The ‘Melodi’ tag has been arecurring fixture of online trends whenever the two have met. It got something close to an official endorsement when Meloni used it as a hashtag on a selfie with PM Modi, posted during the COP28 meeting in the UAE in December 2023. The PM’s toffee diplomacy in Rome had the opposition back home in a flap. Lok Sabha LoP Rahul Gandhi said the PM was “busy handing out candies in Italy” while “an economic storm is raging over the country”. “Farmers, youth, women labourers and small traders are all in tears — the PM is laughing and making reels, while the BJP folks are clapping along. This isn’t leadership, it’s a farce,” he said. Congress president Mallikarjun Kharge, too, took a swipe at the PM. “Modiji wants the public to enjoy the ‘melody’ of speeches while surviving the ‘misery’ of his govt’s loot!” he said, citing domestic LPG prices that he said had spiked 121%. “Every aspect of the economy is suffering, but Modiji continues his PR, lecturing citizens to shoulder the burden of this grave economic storm,” Kharge alleged. Union commerce and industry minister Piyush Goyal had his own take on the toffee discourse, albeit without referring to either Melody the sweet or Melodi the pair. “India’s TOFFEE TALE would surely be melody to the ears! Exports have grown nearly 166% since 2013-14,” he wrote on X. Later, responding to Rahul’s criticism of Modi’s choice of gift for the Italian PM, Goyal wondered why he had so much “hate” for India and Indian products. “India has become a trusted destination for the world through its ‘made in India’ and ‘local goes global’ initiatives but Congress can find only problems in every Indian achievement,” he said, alleging that Rahul couldn’t stomach the country’s “rising stature under PM Modi’s governance”. The Prime Minister was in Italy on the last leg of his five-country nation visit. Meloni hosted him for dinner and accompanied him on a tour of the Colosseum.End of ArticleFollow Us On Social MediaVideos’India Won’t Tolerate Any Form Of Nuclear Blackmail’: Rajnath Singh In South KoreaWho Is Ryan Williams?

The Centre has provided ‘Y’ category armed security cover to senior TMC neta and Lok Sabha MP Kakoli Ghosh Dastidar, with protection deployed from May 19, an official said in New Delhi on Wednesday. The ministry of home affairs extended the security cover by CISF – a central armed police force primarily tasked with safeguarding critical infrastructure and providing security to high-risk individuals – to Dastidar following an intelligence bureau security assessment report. Under ‘Y’ category, the protectee is typically assigned a team of armed personnel for round-the-clock security. Sources said the decision to provide security to Dastidar, who represents the Barasat constituency, was taken following a review of her threat profile. Officials indicated the security cover would be subject to periodic review. agenciesEnd of ArticleFollow Us On Social MediaVideos’India Won’t Tolerate Any Form Of Nuclear Blackmail’: Rajnath Singh In South KoreaWho Is Ryan Williams?

NEW DELHI: Food and Agriculture Organisation (FAO) on Wednesday conferred on PM Narendra Modi the Agricola Medal, its highest honour, in recognition of his govt’s landmark schemes to enhance agricultural productivity, bolster food security and further farmers’ welfare, besides his overall commitment to public welfare. Receiving the award in Rome from the specialised UN agency that leads international efforts to defeat hunger and improve food security, PM Modi said it reflected India’s unwavering commitment to food security and sustainable development, and was an honour for the country’s farmers and others working in the sector. FAO director general Qu Dongyu lauded the “exceptional leadership and vision of the Prime Minister in advancing the country’s efforts to transform India’s agricultural landscape through farmer-centric, innovative and path-breaking initiatives”. He also highlighted his govt’s financial inclusion initiatives, the world’s largest food-based social safety net covering 800 million people since the Covid pandemic, direct income support to more than 110 million farmers, national efforts to advance regenerative and natural farming and global efforts to promote nutrient-rich millets, including through the International Year of Millets in partnership with FAO. The honour is bound to add to PM Modi’s political muscle in countering the opposition, which has accused him of crony capitalism, saying this has happened at the expense of farmers and the working class. Since taking office in 2014, Modi govt has come up with several schemes, including annual cash assistance of Rs 6,000 for farmers and crop insurance, to help the farm sector. However, Congress and other opposition parties have accused him of working for big corporate houses and not doing enough for farmers. They have cited his govt’s enactment of farm reform laws, withdrawn later due to protests by a section of farmers, as one example in this context.End of ArticleFollow Us On Social MediaVideos’India Won’t Tolerate Any Form Of Nuclear Blackmail’: Rajnath Singh In South KoreaWho Is Ryan Williams?

NEW DELHI: The Delhi HC on Wednesday remarked that the “censor board should have some guidelines” related to spy movies, after a PIL filed by a serving Sashastra Seema Bal (SSB) personnel flagged concerns over Ranveer Singh-starrer ‘Dhurandhar: The Revenge’ revealing tactical and sensitive information on the country’s intelligence and defence operations, and sought framing of a ‘spy movies protocol’. “The concerns raised by the petitioner need to be considered and addressed appropriately,” a bench of Chief Justice D K Upadhyaya and Justice Tejas Karia said, adding although films are meant for entertainment, they do have an impact. The bench disposed of the PIL with a direction to the I&B ministry and Central Board of Film Certification (CBFC) “to consider the entire writ petition as representation of the petitioner and take an appropriate decision on the issues raised”. It asked the authorities to communicate their decision on the representation, and if any corrective measures are taken, to the petitioner. The PIL contended that the film violated the Official Secrets Act as it showed tactical operations, sensitive locations and agents in “depth”, and some scenes even revealed information that is not in the interest of the country’s security. The petitioner further argued that actions and characters modelled after high-ranking officials and martyred servicemen are so explicit in the film that it is not in the country’s best interest, and even certain successful military operations are recalled in the movie. The petitioner also objected to the movie using “classified protocols” in certain scenes and depicting “deep cover identities”. He claimed that the movie has “directly compromised the safety of our on-field undercover agents” and led to local authorities in Karachi being on “spy alert”. The PIL sought framing of a protocol to prevent the showcasing of methods of the country’s agents, and revocation of the certification granted to the movie.About the AuthorAbhinav GargAs legal editor for Delhi, Abhinav Garg handles coverage of courts and connected legal challenges shaping the capital.

NAGPUR: A 19-year-old newlywed Nagpur woman, who was allegedly tortured for dowry and subjected to sexual harassment by her brother-in-law, was strangled to death last Friday by her in-laws, who claimed it as a fatal heart attack, reports Soumitra Bose. The plot unraveled after her body was exhumed last Sunday for autopsy, which revealed compression marks on the neck and signs of asphyxia, pointing to strangulation. The woman’s parents had performed her last rites at a graveyard in Amravati city, where they resided.
