Peoples welfare must guide Centre-TN ties: BJP leader
Digital Desk | Chennai, Oct 12 (IANS) Peoples welfare must guide relations between the Centre and Tamil Nadu, BJP leader Vanathi Srinivasan said on Monday, calling for political differences to be set aside when pursuing projects essential to the states development. In a post on X, the former president of the BJPs national womens wing said governments could differ in their policies and political alliances, but their engagement should be anchored in public welfare and the states progress. Her remarks followed Prime Minister Narendra Modis participation in government programmes in Chennai on Sunday, where development initiatives for Tamil Nadu and the states infrastructure requirements came into focus. Vanathi said the events demonstrated the importance the Union government attached to development projects in Tamil Nadu. They also highlighted PM Modis concern for the state and the Centres contribution to implementing projects intended to support its growth, she said. She welcomed Chief Minister C. Joseph Vijays presentation of Tamil Nadus infrastructure needs before the Prime Minister, describing his decision to outline the states requirements during his speech a positive step. The Chief Ministers requests included Metro rail projects for Madurai and Coimbatore, alongside four-lane road projects and other major infrastructure works, according to her post. Vanathi said advancing such proposals required cooperation across political divides. Governments should give proper consideration to peoples needs and work towards meeting them, rather than allowing differences in political positions to determine the course of development, she said. Her comments placed both the Centres role in supporting Tamil Nadu and the state governments responsibility to articulate its requirements within the same framework of cooperation for public benefit. The BJP leader said the need of the hour was to take forward projects necessary for the states development while ensuring that public demands received appropriate attention and were fulfilled. She stressed that differences over policies or alliances should coexist with cooperation on development. The relationship between the two governments, she said, should ultimately be judged by its contribution to peoples welfare and Tamil Nadus progress, with the states essential infrastructure needs receiving priority in their engagement.

'Don't be afraid': Rahul Gandhi invites people to join Opposition parties march to SC tomorrow
Digital Desk | New Delhi, Oct 11 (IANS) Leader of the Opposition in the Lok Sabha, Rahul Gandhi, on Sunday released a video on social media inviting people to join the opposition parties march on Monday to the Supreme Court to give a memorandum against the SIR of electoral rolls and EVMs to the Chief Justice of India, Surya Kant. We will submit a memorandum to the Chief Justice on behalf of the nation, demanding an end to vote chori, halting of SIR and the resignation of Gyanesh Kumar, said Gandhi in the video. Dont be afraid. We will march together, with love, brotherhood and patriotism. Tomorrow, all of India will march to the Supreme Court, he said, adding that they will demand the removal of Chief Election Commissioner Gyanesh Kumar. Yesterday, the nation's youth came out in Delhi to peacefully protest. They came with love in their hearts, not hatred or anger. They were beaten, both by cops and BJP goons. This is not the India we want. Tomorrow, we will march to the Supreme Court as Indians, united beyond party, gender, caste, community and state, he said. Youth, all opposition parties, civil society groups, all those who believe in democracy and stand by the Constitution of India, will walk with us, the Congress leader said. Gandhi said, We will submit a memorandum to the Chief Justice (India) on behalf of the nation, demanding an end to vote chori, halting of SIR and the resignation of Gyanesh Kumar. He said, Narendra Modi, Amit Shah, Ajit Doval and Mohan Bhagwat cannot silence India's voice. These cowards cannot intimidate us. They will have to step aside, he said. Earlier, Congress President Mallikarjun Kharge said that opposition leaders would meet the Chief Justice of India (CJI) to apprise him of their concerns, alleging that Prime Minister Narendra Modi and Home Minister Amit Shah were creating an atmosphere of chaos in the country. Kharge said he had written a letter seeking an appointment with the CJI, adding that the Leader of the Opposition in the Lok Sabha, Rahul Gandhi, had also written to him. The party has sought time between 4 p.m. and 5 p.m. for the meeting. Tomorrow, we are also going to meet the Chief Justice of India. I have written a letter, and Rahul has also written a letter. We have sought a time between 4 and 5 p.m. Now, let us see. We will also apprise him. We cannot demand anything from him. We will only request him with folded hands. These are the things that should be kept in mind, he said. Alleging that the government was creating an atmosphere of fear ahead of the announced youth agitation, the Congress chief questioned the deployment of a large number of security personnel.

Ranveer Brar: Food is the glue that binds people, establishes a society
Digital Desk | Mumbai, Oct 11 (IANS) Celebrity Chef Ranveer Brar, who is receiving a lot of good response to his quiz show Yess Chef, has shared that food is the primal bond that binds people, and helps in establishing societies and cultures. The celebrity chef and actor spoke with IANS in the Andheri West area of Mumbai during the promotions of his new streaming show Yess Chef, and said the bonds created by food are incomparable. He told IANS, The original bond is food. 2 friends can sit on a song and discuss a painting. But when two friends sit together and eat together, there is no comparison to that bond. So, food is the original glue. And it connects two people, family, community, society, and country which makes it very powerful. And I feel very lucky to be in such a business, that even if you don't want to, people get connected to you, he added. Earlier, Ranveer had shared advice to ensure food safety in homes, and said that the best way to get quality products on kitchen platforms or dining tables is to shop from local markets. He earlier told IANS, I believe that first of all, do your own shopping from local markets. That is very important if we talk about freshness. All of us have stopped going to the vegetable market. The 10-minute apps have changed the culture of shopping from vegetable markets. When you see fresh vegetables on the whole cart, you understand the value of fresh food. Even if you get a small packet of cabbage, you don't enjoy it. I think we should continue. Last minute apps are fine in an emergency, but it is very important to go to the market and buy fresh vegetables. Secondly, if we talk about freshness, I feel that if we make as much food as we want, then there will be less things in the refrigerator. And if there are less things in the refrigerator, then there will be less tension in the mind that we have to use leftover food. So, the refrigerator is equivalent to the tension in the mind, he added.

Delhi, New York, Madrid, Valencia, Buenos Aires, Paris and Jerusalem have all witnessed protests driven by very different grievances from elections and housing to jobs, schools, immigration enforcement and military conscription.These are not one movement, one ideology or one political camp. But look beneath the individual flashpoints and a broader pattern emerges: economic insecurity, frustration with institutions and a growing feeling that decisions affecting everyday lives are being made without public consent.So why are people taking to the streets at almost the same time? And what connects protests that, politically, have almost nothing in common?
American citizen among at least 12 people killed in blast at Saudi Arabia airport
King Khalid International Airport in Riyadh, Saudi Arabia on September 19, 2026. - AFP/Getty Images At least 12 people were killed and hundreds wounded on Saturday when Yemens Houthi militants struck an airport in Saudi Arabias capital, as the Iran-backed group escalated its campaign against the kingdom. It was the third strike on the international hub this week, and the deadliest attack against the major US ally in more than a decade. The attack on Riyadhs King Khalid International Airport killed four Saudi citizens, two Bangladeshi residents, and one resident each from the US, Egypt, Jordan, Syria, Palestine, and Sudan, the kingdoms civil aviation body said Sunday, adding that 309 people were wounded. One traveler told Reuters news agency they saw something fly across the sky outside before part of the ceiling near a departure gate collapsed. Another recalled hearing an explosion before seeing several people lying wounded on the ground. All flights were diverted from the city, home to roughly 8 million people, and airport operations were temporarily halted, Reuters said, citing the Saudi civil aviation authority. At least 627 flights were cancelled on Sunday and the airport is expected to remain closed until 9 p.m. local time, according to flight-tracking website Flightradar24. An eyewitness video released by Reuters showed large boards and debris strewn across the terminal floor, with people moving through a dust-filled hall. The US, UK, Spain and Canada are among countries warning their citizens against using the airport. Saturdays incident has exposed vulnerabilities in the kingdoms defense capabilities as it wages an air campaign in support of Yemens internationally recognized government, which is fighting the Houthis on the ground. After the blast, the head of the Houthi media office said the group had shut down the airport in a post on X. The group also warned airliners against using Saudi airspace, declaring it a zone of military operations after Yemen launched an offensive against the group on Monday. Saudi Arabias Coalition Joint Forces Command confirmed the Houthis were behind the attack, which struck the airports passenger terminal and killed both passengers and staff. US President Donald Trump said Saturday he plans to speak with Saudi Crown Prince Mohammed bin Salman following the attack. Theyre able to defend. The Saudis are good fighters. But I think the attack was a terrible thing, Trump said when asked whether Saudi Arabia could defend itself against the Houthis. People gather outside a metro station on the road to King Khalid International Airport in Riyadh, Saudi Arabia, on October 10, 2026. - AP People gather outside a metro station on the road to King Khalid International Airport in Riyadh, Saudi Arabia, on October 10, 2026. - AP Asked outside the White House whether Washington planned to join Saudi strikes on the Houthis, a militia aligned with US foe Iran, Trump told reporters: We may. Were going to look at it. We just found out about the recent attack, so well make a decision. We move very quickly. US Secretary of State Marco Rubio confirmed a US citizen was among those killed and condemned the attacks as showing a blatant disregard for innocent civilian life, in a post on X. Wounded people, including some in critical condition, were rushed to hospitals Saturday by ambulance and helicopter, people familiar with the matter told Reuters. Two previous attacks at the airport this week killed four people and caused heavy damage to a Saudi commercial plane, Reuters said. UN Special Envoy for Yemen Hans Grundberg called the attacks a grave escalation which pose a serious threat to regional security, in a post on X. United Nations Secretary-General Antnio Guterres condemned the latest strike and said attacks on civilians and civilian infrastructure are a violation of international law, also writing on X. unknown content item - The civil war in Yemen flared up once again this summer and significantly intensified last month, after years of relative calm. Saudi Arabia has for 11 years tried to contain the conflict on its southern border through military force and diplomacy first waging war with the Houthis, then pursuing peace talks with them and restoring diplomatic talks with their backer, Tehran. Despite the efforts, a series of miscalculations has left Riyadh exposed to further conflict in Yemen, experts say. Saudi Arabia ended its longstanding partnership with the UAE late last year over its backing of a rival force in Yemen, misjudged Trumps willingness to back it if it needed support, and struggled to organize disintegrated armed factions fighting the Houthis. Now, Riyadh is trying to regain its footing by supporting its Yemeni partners in yet another campaign against the Houthis, an operation named Yemens Dawn.

Rejected by people in Bengal, Mamata Banerjee in Delhi to keep herself relevant: Dilip Ghosh
Digital Desk | Kolkata, Oct 11 (IANS) After being rejected by the people of West Bengal, former Chief Minister Mamata Banerjee is currently in New Delhi with a herculean attempt to keep herself relevant in national politics, said state Panchayat Affairs and Rural Development Minister and BJPs former national vice-president, Dilip Ghosh, on Sunday. Ghosh, also the BJPs former state president, ridiculed her, claiming she would now go to neighbouring Bangladesh and join any movement there to keep herself more relevant. She and her party, Trinamool Congress, have been completely rejected by the people of West Bengal. The combined vote share of the two factions of Trinamool Congress in the recently concluded bypolls to two Assembly constituencies in West Bengal has been less than three per cent. Trinamool Congress is non-existent in West Bengal. So, she has gone to New Delhi to keep herself relevant in the media. She should now go to neighbouring Bangladesh and join any movement there to keep herself more relevant. But still her party will never benefit, said Ghosh while speaking to the media persons. Ghosh also launched a scathing attack against the Cockroach Janata Party (CJP)s ongoing protest in New Delhi over the demand for the resignation of the Chief Election Commissioner (CEC), Gyanesh Kumar, which Mamata Banerjee has been supporting. There is foreign funding behind this movement. A conspiracy by the anti-national forces is behind this movement. The government has done the right thing in taking action in the larger interest of the country and its people, said Ghosh. Ghosh is not the first state BJP leader from West Bengal to ridicule Mamata Banerjee over her eagerness to be a part of the CJP movement. On Saturday, BJPs current state president in West Bengal and the partys Rajya Sabha member, Samik Bhattacharya, without directly naming Congress and the Trinamool Congress faction led by Mamata Banerjee, said that a half-dead political force had joined hands with a dead force to stay relevant over the CJP movement. On the occasion of Mahalaya today, the former West Bengal Chief Minister has gone to New Delhi instead of staying in the state. We want her to stay here during this festivity time and visit various puja pandals. We want to see her doing that. Where have all the big Trinamool Congress leaders gone? Bhattacharya asked on Saturday.

Saudi authorities say attack on Riyadh airport killed 12 people and wounded over 300
Cairo, Oct 11: Saudi authorities say an attack on Riyadh airport killed 12 people and wounded over 300 more. According to a statement by Saudi authorities, the dead included four Saudi citizens, two Bangladeshi nationals, and one each from Palestine, the United States, Egypt, Jordan, Syria and Sudan. It said some of those injured were in critical condition. The international airport in Saudi Arabia's capital, Riyadh, was attacked again Saturday as the kingdom faces an extraordinary series of assaults in the new front in the Iran war. President Donald Trump said he was evaluating whether the US should join Saudi strikes against the Tehran-backed Houthi rebels in neighboring Yemen. The Houthis claimed attacks earlier in the week on King Khalid International Airport that killed three Saudis, including a pilot. On Saturday, a missile struck a complex housing terminals 3 and 4 for domestic flights and many people were wounded, a regional official said, speaking on condition of anonymity because they weren't authorized to speak to the media. We may. We're going to look at it, Trump said of intervening. We just found out about the recent attack. So we'll make a decision. We move very quickly. The surge in attacks, including against other Saudi airports, military facilities and oil infrastructure, has come in the week since a Saudi-led coalition launched a major military offensive against the Houthis. There was no immediate statement from the rebels, who earlier Saturday accused Saudi Arabia of striking Sanaa International Airport in the Houthi-held Yemeni capital. Riyadh airport operations have been suspended Saudi civil aviation authorities said airport operations were suspended and the extent of injuries and damage was being assessed. An official notice to aviators said the suspension was through midnight. The airport had a heavy police presence, with all entrances blocked, and lights around the complex were dimmed. Flights diverted elsewhere, the Flightradar24 tracker said. Countries including the United States, Britain, Germany, Australia and Canada warned citizens to avoid the airport. The attacks on Saudi Arabia, the world's top oil exporter, have rattled markets and the region. And yet the Saudi energy ministry hours after the latest one was still promoting a major international energy conference set to begin in Riyadh on Sunday. Fighting in Yemen between the Houthis and Saudi-backed Yemeni government forces has escalated, with the Saudi-led coalition providing air support for government forces attempting to reverse recent Houthi gains along the Red Sea. Those gains gave the rebels better surveillance of shipping on a corridor that is a crucial alternative to the Strait of Hormuz, where Iran has been attacking ships. Though the Houthis have told the AP and others they are only targeting Saudi shipping as part of a blockade in retaliation for one imposed on them, concerns about wider attacks persist. The Houthis previously attacked other ships after the war in Gaza began, calling it solidarity with Palestinians. A U.S. bombing campaign sharply limited that. Saudi Arabia has run low on interceptors, officials say Saudi Arabia is running low on missile interceptors and has asked France, Britain, Pakistan and Egypt to deploy air defense support to the region, regional officials told the AP last month, with one noting that the US has seen its own stock dwindle during the war with Iran. Officials have said US assistance has included intelligence sharing, target identification and planning for the latest offensive against the Houthis. On Saturday, Saudi Arabia said its foreign minister and Omani counterpart spoke by phone about the importance of supporting diplomatic solutions to de-escalate tensions in the region. Oman, which lies across the Strait of Hormuz from Iran, has played a mediator role at times in the region. Meanwhile, Saudi authorities warned the public this week that filming, publishing or sharing information related to countering missiles and drones and their impact sites exposes you to legal liability. Flight disruptions are growing The Houthis this week warned global airlines for the last time about the potential consequences of operating in Saudi airspace, which they described as a theater for their military operations. At least 291 flights at the Riyadh airport had been canceled over the past 24 hours, according to flight-tracking site FlightAware. Before the latest attack, Air India, FlyDubai, Lufthansa Group and Pakistan International Airlines were among airlines suspending flights to and from Riyadh and other Saudi airports for varying periods. The European Union Aviation Safety Agency had expanded its guidance on Saudi airspace, noting the Houthis' ability to strike targets deeper inside the kingdom, including Riyadh, and a greater focus on aviation infrastructure. The missile and drone attacks and interception efforts create an increased risk of misidentification of civil aircraft, it said.

Samson T20I: Former Indian cricketer Robin Singh pointed out that the Vaibhav Sooryavanshi-Sanju Samson debate in T20Is presents the Indian team with healthy competition, one that will not allow the other to slip up with their performances. With Sooryavanshi graduating to the senior level following setting the IPL stage and U19 cricket to fire, the Indian T20I team has found itself in a selection headache of choosing between the fiery teenager Sooryavanshi and experienced Samson at the top of the order with Abhishek Sharma. Former all-rounder Robin Singh highlighted that a youngster should be given a long run, but as others have also done well, he might have to wait for his chances. It is a question of giving people a good run. You don't want to give a youngster just one game or two games, and then you make him sit on a bench. I think those days are gone. It's important to also let him understand what international cricket is, Robin told IANS. Sooryavanshi has enough and more talent. So, you know, even if he has to sit on a bench and wait it out, it's okay. But the others have done very well. So, you know, it's good to have competition. It's good to have people beating down your neck so that you don't slip up with your performances, he added. Sooryavanshi has been part of India's T20I teams from the away Ireland series onwards but has played in eight of the 18 matches since then. He made his debut during the second T20I of the five-match series in England as India took a tough call of dropping Samson after only three failures despite his stellar T20 World Cup 2026. Samson was back in the reckoning after being rested for the Zimbabwe T20I series and has kept the opening slot, especially in the home T20Is. India also tried playing both Sooryavanshi and Samson during the Asian Games in Japan but had only one pacer and a plethora of spin-bowling all-rounders in the playing XI as spinners were getting help there. Sooryavanshi has been part of India's T20I teams from the away Ireland series onwards but has played in eight of the 18 matches since then. He made his debut during the second T20I of the five-match series in England as India took a tough call of dropping Samson after only three failures despite his stellar T20 World Cup 2026.

People Underrate Shai Hope A Lot, Has Special Skill In Shutting Out Noise: Roston Chase
JSCA International Stadium: West Indies off-spin bowling all-rounder Roston Chase believes skipper Shai Hope does not get enough credit for evolving his batting and commended him for having the special skill of shutting out the noise after his unbeaten century inspired the visitors to a record chase against India in the second T20I on Friday night. An in-form Hope hammered an unbeaten 102 off just 45 balls as the West Indies chased down India's imposing 249/5 with six wickets in hand to level the five match series 1-1 at the JSCA International Stadium. Hope had previously led the West Indies chase down 353 by hitting an unbeaten 162 in the third ODI against India in New Chandigarh last week. I think about Shai Hope, people underrate him a lot. But Shai Hope is a guy that he can blank out a lot of noise and just focus on what he has to do and I think that's his special skill. Because when everything seems to be going wrong, he's still out there giving his best and performing for the team, Chase said to reporters at the conclusion of the game. He also dismissed the criticism that Hope bats too slowly or plays for personal milestones and described him as an exemplary professional who works tirelessly behind the scenes. Everyone knows he's great in 50-over cricket and still sometimes people don't give him the credit. They always say he either bats too slow or he bats for himself. He puts in the hard work and he's the ultimate professional. He tries to tick every box and do the right things all the time. He also revealed about the efforts Hope makes in the gym, which helped transform from a slow starter into a power-hitter. He's done a lot of gym work to make himself stronger in terms of hitting the ball over the ropes. He also practises a lot of range hitting to get in those strong positions. Speaking about the mammoth 120-run partnership between Hope and Sherfane Rutherford (84 off 37 balls), Chase said, To chase 250 in any conditions, any ball in attack, I think that was a tremendous effort. I think it's a record chase for us. It was just a great feeling and it came out in the celebration. On his own bowling, which saw him pick 3-24, with his scalps being Abhishek Sharma, Ishan Kishan and Shivam Dube, Chase revealed that he changed his tactic after Sanju Samson smashed his first delivery for four. I told myself probably the wicket is a bit too good to be using the wicket consistently. So I thought I had to mix up in terms of using the wicket and then going for the yorkers as well. On his own bowling, which saw him pick 3-24, with his scalps being Abhishek Sharma, Ishan Kishan and Shivam Dube, Chase revealed that he changed his tactic after Sanju Samson smashed his first delivery for four.

Samajwadi Party spokesperson Ashutosh Verma said the call issued by the CJP had drawn interest from people across different parts of the country. One thing is clear: People from across the country, not just North India but also South, East and West India, want to join the Cockroach Janata Partys call. Why do they want to come? Because they are convinced that electoral malpractice has taken place through the Election Commission, with Gyanesh Kumars name being used as a front, Verma said. Telangana Jana Samithi (TJS) chief and MLC, M. Kodandaram also criticised the security arrangements and the reported suspension of Internet services amid the planned demonstration. Today, on October 10, the Cockroach Janata Party has issued a special call to reach Jantar Mantar to protest against the Election Commission of India. They are also demanding the resignation of Chief Election Commissioner Gyanesh Kumar. However, heavy security forces have been deployed, and Internet services have been suspended, preventing people from reaching the Jantar Mantar area. I think this is a very big mistake, he said. Congress leader Husain Dalwai also questioned the measures taken amid the protest, linking the demonstration to concerns over alleged irregularities in the SIR process. These actions are wrong. People are protesting because of irregularities in the SIR process, which has deprived 13 crore people of their right to participate in elections. This is completely wrong, Dalwai said. The leaders remarks came as the CJPs call for a protest against the Election Commission and its demand for Chief Election Commissioner Gyanesh Kumars resignation brought electoral processes and the right to dissent into focus.

Pradhan participated in the drive alongside the Sambalpur District Collector, Deputy Inspector General (DIG), Superintendent of Police, Sambalpur Municipal Corporation Commissioner and members of various voluntary organisations. Speaking on the occasion, Pradhan said cleanliness was a form of service and stressed the importance of making it an integral part of daily life. Cleanliness is service. This is a very important campaign. Today, in Sambalpur district, more than 500 urban areas and over 100,000 volunteers and sanitation workers are engaged in cleaning work. This is a sign of cleanliness, a way of living a disciplined life, and we should adopt it, he said. Pradhan also expressed concern over the extensive use of single-use plastic in Sambalpur, warning that it posed a serious threat to the environment. He said that harming the environment ultimately meant harming human society and property, underlining the need for collective responsibility in protecting the surroundings. Emphasising the importance of individual efforts, Pradhan said maintaining cleanliness at home should extend to neighbouring areas and public spaces. He urged people to adopt responsible habits and contribute to keeping their surroundings clean. The initiative aims to strengthen public awareness about sanitation, discourage the use of single-use plastic and promote community participation in cleanliness activities across Sambalpur district. The campaign also seeks to encourage citizens to adopt cleanliness as a regular practice rather than limiting it to special drives and official initiatives.

India demands Pakistan end human rights violations in PoK, suppressing people's revolt
Digital Desk | United Nations, Oct 10 (IANS) India has demanded that Pakistan stop the military's human rights violations in the part of Kashmir it illegally occupies, where the people have risen in revolt against it. In the last few months, the Pakistani armed forces and their proxies have killed dozens of innocent civilians who were agitating for their basic rights and freedoms and basic necessities, BJP MP Mahima Kumari Mewar said here on Friday. We call upon Pakistan to stop the grave and ongoing human rights violations in the areas illegally occupied by it, where the population is in open revolt against Pakistan, its military occupation, repression, brutality, and illegal exploitation of resources, she said at the General Assembly's Fourth Committee that deals with decolonisation. She delivered the tough message, exercising the right of reply to Pakistan's Acting Permanent Representative Usman Jadoon's attempt to draw Kashmir into the debate. A country like Pakistan, with an established record of military dictatorship, sham elections, incarceration of popular elected leaders, religious extremism, and sponsoring terrorism as an instrument of state policy, should, in future, refrain from preaching homilies of this sort at this platform, Mewar said. Jammu and Kashmir is and always remains an integral and inalienable part of India, she declared. More than 90 people have been killed by Islamabad's security forces, which brutally put down Kashmiris' protests that began against Pakistan sending outsiders there to manipulate the elections. The people's anger over the exploitation of its natural resources, the worsening living conditions, and the rising prices boiled over and a civil society coalition, Jammu Kashmir Joint Awami Action Committee (JAAC), has led the broader protests. Mewar represents Rajasthan's Rajsamand constituency in the Lok Sabha and is among the MPs in India's delegation to the General Assembly. Earlier, delivering India's statement at the committee, she reaffirmed that India would work tirelessly to achieve the goal of decolonisation. The fight against colonisation has been arduous and although more than 80 countries have been able to break free of the shackles of colonialism, the decolonisation process, however, remains unfinished, she said. Seventeen non-self-governing territories remain on the agenda of the Fourth Committee, and a pragmatic approach will lead to their decolonisation and the fulfilment of the legitimate wishes of the people there, she said. The UN's list of the non-self-governing territories includes the Falkland Islands or Malvinas, which are claimed by Argentina, over which there were heated exchanges between Britain, which holds them, and Argentina and its supporters.
