Meeting held at Congress Chief Kharge's residence was attended by Rahul, Sonia, SP chief Akhilesh Yadav, NCP (Sharadchandra Pawar)'s Sharad Pawar & AAP's Raghav Chadha, among many others.
Following an INDIA bloc meeting, a joint statement read out by Kharge suggested that back-channel talks may continue with TDP & JD(U), which have emerged as kingmakers.
Three outcomes follow from the results: Indian politics has returned to its pattern of coalitions, the BJP under Narendra Modi looks beatable and the Congress has revived.
As of 9.45 pm, the NDA had been declared a winner on 240 seats, with the BJP accounting for 240. The INDIA bloc secured victory in 233 seats. Of these, the Congress got 99.
The last time this matter flared up was when Delhi Chief Minister Rekha Gupta, in a very similar directive in April, called for the relocation of stray dogs in the capital.
Finance ministry says the proposed revamp will focus on structural reforms, rate rationalisation & ease of living, & will be deliberated upon in the coming weeks.
The project is meant to be a ‘protective shield that will keep expanding’, the PM said. It is on the lines of the ‘Golden Dome’ announced by Trump, it is learnt.
Now that both IAF and PAF have made formal claims of having shot down the other’s aircraft in the 87-hour war in May, we can ask a larger question: do such numbers really matter?
