Due to deteriorating character of society, people nowadays are not ready to stand for truth, the Supreme Court has observed as it asked the Maharashtra government why it was relying on a large number of witnesses for oral testimony.

The Ministry of External Affairs (MEA) refuted Rahul Gandhi’s allegation that External Affairs Minister S Jaishankar alerted Pakistan before Operation Sindoor. MEA clarified that Pakistan was warned at the early phase after the operation’s commencement, countering the misrepresentation of facts.

Shashi Tharoor’s inclusion in the Operation Sindoor outreach program has sparked controversy, with the Congress party distancing itself from his pro-government stance on the India-Pakistan issue. Despite Congress suggesting other names, the government chose Tharoor to lead the delegation. In the recent past, Tharoor’s unflinching support for the government during the India-Pakistan standoff has raised eyebrows within his party.
