Kishor’s yatra, which started from West Champaran district on 2 October 2022, completed one year Monday. Theme of his speeches has been development all through.
Former poll strategist, currently on padyatra in Bihar, says parties & leaders sitting together won’t make a difference without 'unity in thought' and a narrative they can take to public.

India-Russia JV is also racing to deliver 7,000 more AK-203 assault rifles by 15 Aug. These are currently being made with 50% indigenisation and this will surge to 100% by 31 December.
