New Delhi/Guwahati, April 15, 2026 — In a significant development, the Supreme Court on Wednesday stayed the one-week transit anticipatory bail granted by the Telangana High Court to Congress leader and AICC Media & Publicity Department Chairman Pawan Khera in connection with an FIR registered by Assam Police. A bench comprising Justices J.K. Maheshwari and Atul S. Chandurkar expressed surprise at the Telangana High Court’s order, citing concerns over territorial jurisdiction, alleged forum shopping, and a discrepancy in documents submitted by Khera — specifically, an Aadhaar card where the front side showed his details while the back indicated his wife’s address in Hyderabad. The...
Iranian diplomatic missions worldwide have turned to sharp, humorous social media posts to counter U.S. President Donald Trump’s rhetoric, with the latest viral example coming from the Iranian Embassy in Ghana. The official X account @IRAN_GHANA posted a satirical “application” to Italy after Prime Minister Giorgia Meloni defended Pope Leo XIV against Trump’s criticism of the pontiff’s peace appeals amid ongoing Iran-related tensions. The post mocks Trump as the “Commander in Grief” while highlighting cultural ties between Iran and Italy. The full text reads: “Dear Italy, Your PM just defended Pope and lost an ally in Washington — the Commander in Grief, yet the most ‘powerfool...
Guwahati/New Delhi: The political controversy surrounding alleged overseas assets linked to Himanta Biswa Sarma’s family has deepened, with fresh claims by Congress leader Pawan Khera adding a new layer to an already heated pre-election dispute. The latest escalation follows earlier allegations—first reported in regional media—that questioned the possible existence of foreign properties and undisclosed assets linked to the Chief Minister’s wife, Riniki Bhuyan Sarma. The issue has since snowballed into a major political flashpoint ahead of the Assam Assembly elections. In his most recent statements, Khera claimed that “more information has come to light,” suggesting additional details...
Press Emblem Campaign (PEC), the global media safety and rights body, expresses concern over sealing of the office of United News of India (UNI, one of the country’s oldest news agencies) in New Delhi on Friday and urged the concerned parties to reconsider the decision. According to the local media outlets, the closing down of the UNI office raised serious concerns over press freedom in the largest democracy on Earth. It was also reported that some staff members on duty were forcibly evicted and even female journalists faced manhandling by a team of Delhi police personnel. The action was taken following an order from Delhi high court as it upheld the cancellation of the land allotment to...
The Jamiat Ulama-i-Hind has filed a petition in the Supreme Court challenging recent remarks allegedly made by Assam Chief Minister Himanta Biswa Sarma, in which he used the term “Miya” while referring to Muslims. The plea, filed by Jamiat president Maulana Mahmood Madani, contends that the term “Miya” is commonly used in Assam as a derogatory reference to Muslims. It argues that when such language is employed by a person holding a high constitutional office, it cannot be dismissed as political rhetoric or protected speech. According to the petition, such remarks amount to a “deliberate attempt to spread hatred, create hostility, and stigmatise an entire community.” A press statement...
A press conference at the Constitution Club here to release the report “People’s Tribunal on Assam: Evictions, Detentions, and the Right to Belong” was briefly disrupted on Tuesday when members of Hindu Sena and a group from Muzaffarnagar entered the venue shouting slogans.

He accused authorities of disregarding the rule of law and facilitating forced evictions of Bengali Muslims. Bhushan asserted that the evicted lands were being transferred to corporate entities like the Adani Group and Patanjali, and warned that...
