IndiGo Granted Final Three-Month Extension to Operate Two Turkish Airlines Aircraft

India’s Economy Surges: Q4 GDP Growth Hits 7.4%, Outperforms Expectations

Quarterly Upswing Signals Robust Economic Momentum India’s economy delivered a pleasant surprise with its fourth quarter GDP numbers, registering a growth rate of 7.4% for the January–March period of FY 2024–25, surpassing most market forecasts.

Annual GDP Growth Slows, Still Steady at 6.5% Despite the Q4 acceleration, India's full-year GDP growth for FY 2024–25 stood at…

Rajnath Singh Aboard INS Vikrant: India’s Bold Naval Message to Pakistan

Silent Service, Powerful Impact During Operation Sindoor, India’s Navy is often referred to as the “silent service.” It demonstrated quiet yet formidable strength. The Navy effectively neutralized threats without firing a shot. The Defence Minister, speaking aboard INS Vikrant, praised the force’s silent restraint. He noted its capability to keep Pakistan’s military on alert without direct confrontation. He warned, however, that if provoked again, the opening salvo might very well come from the Indian Navy. Pakistan Must Read the Signs The Minister issued a stern message to Islamabad: the era of tolerating terrorism emanating from Pakistan’s soil is over. Any…

Shashi Tharoor Defends India’s Counterterrorism Strike, Questions Stance of Colombia

Congress MP Shashi Tharoor, part of a seven-member all-party delegation currently visiting Colombia, voiced “disappointment.” This was over the South American nation’s statement expressing condolences for casualties in Pakistan. These casualties followed India’s counterterrorism response "Operation Sindoor". Tharoor firmly reiterated that India was exercising its sovereign right to self-defence in response to a deadly terrorist attack. India’s Stand: A Right to Defend, Not Attack Responding to media queries in Bogotá, Colombia Tharoor stressed a concern. He stated that Colombia’s gesture failed to acknowledge the victims of terrorism. It appeared to blur the line between aggressor and defender. “There can be…

Return Without Roadmap: Kashmiri Pandits Demand Justice, Not Symbolism

Conversations around the return of Kashmiri Pandits to the Valley are gaining momentum under initiatives like "Aalav." Members of the community and civil society are raising urgent, foundational questions. These questions remain unanswered. Symbolic efforts, they argue, are not a substitute for structured, sustainable plans for return, resettlement, and justice. Where Will the Pandits Live? A primary concern is the status of ancestral homes. Many of these homes have reportedly been encroached upon, destroyed, or sold under distress. Without a clear legal roadmap for reclaiming lost properties, the prospect of permanent resettlement appears murky. Are there any designated locations for…
