Apni Party Calls for Unified Push on Statehood

RK News Service Srinagar, June 9: Apni Party on Tuesday called for a united political approach to seek the restoration of statehood and other constitutional rights of Jammu and Kashmir, urging all stakeholders to set aside differences and engage with the Centre through a coordinated strategy. Addressing a press conference at the party headquarters in Srinagar, Apni Party President Syed Mohammad Altaf Bukhari said the partys Political Affairs Committee had recently reviewed the prevailing political situation and discussed the issue of restoring statehood to Jammu and Kashmir. Bukhari said the demand for statehood and constitutional rights should not be reduced to a party-specific agenda, asserting that it requires collective efforts by all political stakeholders. Let all stakeholders come together to identify and prioritise the issues, formulate a roadmap and then engage with the Centre in a coordinated and constructive manner, he said. Drawing parallels with Ladakh and Kargil, Bukhari said leaders there had set aside their differences to pursue common demands before New Delhi and stressed that political parties in Jammu and Kashmir should adopt a similar approach. He reiterated that the Apni Party believes meaningful progress on J&Ks issues can be achieved through dialogue and engagement with the Centre rather than confrontation. The Apni Party chief said the restoration of statehood remains the partys top priority, but added that other constitutional rights and guarantees that were withdrawn after August 5, 2019, also need to be restored. He specifically referred to the merger of the J&K IAS and KAS cadres with AGMUT and said such issues should also be taken up with the Centre. Bukhari further urged the Union Government to initiate dialogue with the people of Jammu and Kashmir, particularly the youth, recalling assurances made by the Prime Minister and the Union Home Minister. Highlighting public concerns, he said unemployment among educated youth, corruption and the plight of prisoners deserving clemency remain major challenges that require urgent attention. He added that Apni Party would support any collective initiative aimed at raising genuine public issues with the Centre, irrespective of which political party leads the effort.

Ruhullah Backs NCs Statehood Protest, Seeks Art 370 Restoration

It should not only be a day-long photo-ops only but sustained process Abid Bashir Srinagar, June 9: Senior National Conference leader and partys Srinagar Member of Parliament Aga Syed Ruhullah Mehdi on Tuesday said that he would join the National Conferences proposed protest at Delhis Jantar Mantar for the restoration of statehood on the first day of Parliaments Monsoon session. He, however, asserted that his demand would go beyond restoration of statehood and focus on the return of Article 370. The statement comes days after the National Conference announced that it would stage a protest demonstration at Jantar Mantar in New Delhi on the opening day of Parliaments upcoming Monsoon Session, seeking restoration of full statehood to Jammu and Kashmir. While extending support to the protest call, said the political struggle of Jammu and Kashmir cannot remain limited to the issue of statehood alone. I will join the protest for sure, but my demand will be restoration of Article 370, not just statehood, Ruhullah told reporters here. It shouldnt be a mere day long photo ops but a sustained process. The National Conference had recently announced plans to hold a demonstration at Jantar Mantar in New Delhi during the first day of Parliaments Monsoon Session, with party leaders stating that restoration of statehood remains a commitment repeatedly made by the Union Government. Senior NC leaders have said the protest is aimed at reminding the Centre about promises made regarding the restoration of democratic and constitutional rights to the people of Jammu and Kashmir. Ruhullahs statement, however, has added a sharper political dimension to the proposed protest by bringing the issue into the centre of public discourse. The Srinagar MP has consistently maintained that the political aspirations of the people of Jammu and Kashmir are linked not merely to administrative restoration, but also to constitutional guarantees and democratic rights that existed prior to August 2019. The proposed protest in Delhi is expected to witness participation from Chief Minister Omar Abdullah, senior National Conference leaders, MPs, legislators and party workers and could emerge as one of the biggest political mobilisations by the party outside Jammu and Kashmir in recent years. The Monsoon Session protest also comes at a time when political activity in Jammu and Kashmir has intensified, with regional parties increasingly sharpening their positions on issues related to statehood, constitutional safeguards and representation. With Ruhullah publicly backing the protest while simultaneously broadening its political message, the forthcoming demonstration at Jantar Mantar is likely to draw national political attention and revive debate around the larger constitutional questions surrounding Jammu and Kashmir.

Ravi Reclaimed: Shaping Punjabs Past & Redefining Its Future

The countless stories which Ravi has been carrying through times of yore cannot be appropriated by a mere 78 years of conflict narrative between India and Pakistan COLONEL SATISH SINGH LALOTRA For centuries, the river Ravi has flowed through the heart of Punjabs history, culture and civilisation. Revered in ancient texts, celebrated in folklore, and crucial to the agricultural prosperity of the region, Ravi has been much more than a watercourse. Flowing through myriad names, the kind of which most of Indians may not be even aware of, viz., Vedic Parushni, Puranic Irvati, Greek Hydraotes, river Ravi is one such water body of our sub-continent which is arguably the most talked about, referred as well as venerated that meets its more than equal in the form of the Indus. It is not for nothing that the ubiquitous phrase- Heth Vage Ravi Darya or Below flows the river Ravi became the sine qua non in most of the songs and stories of Punjab, both past and contemporary. Most of the contemporary writers and poets of the Punjabi language in India lament that Punjabis have always written poetry and even prose around their rivers that have been left back in Pakistan. Whereas Pakistan, on the other hand, thinks most of Punjabs rivers have been left back in India. This is true more so in the case of the river Ravi, unlike other rivers of the Indus basin. With 23rd April 2026 having gone past, reminding all of us of the completion of more than one year of the holding in abeyance of the IWT ( Indus Water Treaty) in the wake of the infamous Pahalgam attack by Pakistan-based terrorists, it is time to cast a glance at one of the major river systems of this IWT ( Ravi) from an altogether different perspective. That of a water system which has bound both warring nations (India & Pakistan), ranging from livelihood, customs, culture, poetry and literature with each other for aeons. Unlike other rivers of the Indus basin, the Ravi is fed more by monsoon than by glaciers. Though having a modest yield, Ravis impact on the ecology and on human societies has been deep and nothing short of being stupendous. It would be worth each drop of water of the river Ravi to undertake a short ethnographical view of this water system on the eve of the first year of its scrapping( though temporarily) of the IWT by India that will enable the readers of this column of mine to understand its connection with its people, on both sides of the Radcliff line. Those who worship it, fear it, and on whose banks in 1929 the clarion call for the independence of India ( Poorna swaraj) was given by the first PM, Nehru, Ravi still rules the mental firmament of this sub-continent as no other river system. The precursor to this write-up of mine stemmed from my recent train journey ( Rajdhani Express) while coming back from my home town Jammu to Delhi and crossing the river Ravi that has been the traditional boundary between the erstwhile state of J&K and Punjab for centuries. The sight of still damaged Madhopur barrage on this river, wrought by last years torrential rains in August 2025, jolted me back to the stark realities of todays geopolitical situation as it confronts our sub-continent. The fact that the Pakistani side of Punjab was as badly affected by this rivers raging waves last monsoon as was the Indian side needs no elaboration. That river Ravi stood at the crossroads of all major historical events of this sub-continent dating back to the Indus valley civilisation circa 3300-2800 BC, so central that the first phase of Harappan urban development has been aptly named as Ravi phase is in itself a statement that needs no further elucidation. The fact that even the British placed this water body in the 1846 Treaty of Amritsar as a vital geographical and political boundary to define the newly formed borders of the Dogra princely state of J&K under its suzerainty, marking the regions official transition from Sikh rule to Dogra ownership, underscores Ravis relevance across myriad time lines. As if this was not enough, astounding discoveries talk of rosewood and deodar logs floating down the river 5000 years ago. Fish caught in its paleo channels forming an important part of the diet and surprisingly advanced urban development adapting to floods rather than merely fighting them, Ravi has much to offer to its admirers, cutting across myriad time lines. The fall of urban Harappa is also traced to the decisive avulsion of the river away from the settlement. As river Parushni in Rigveda, circa 1500 BC, Ravis banks were the battleground for Dashrajna or the war of the Ten kings. Indira, the lord of the free-flowing rivers, is described as crossing the woolly foam of Parushni. And even today, Gaddi shepherds set off on their long remembered migratory routes with woolly sheep along this river. Somewhere around the 5th century BC, ancient grammarian Yaska recorded that the Parushni of the Rig-Veda is same as Iravati. It is Iravati that is found in Ramayana and Mahabharata, where Sita found refuge in its forested banks. Yaksa saysThey call it Iravati as Parushni; a mountain river with a sinuous path. In the headwater forests deep in the valleys of Himachal Pradesh are found the conifer trees going by the name Rei, and hence the name of Ravi. In the 4th century BC, Alexander of Macedonia sailed the Ravi several times, forded it and, as was his habit, drove the native tribes to a bloody battle. The Greeks recorded the river as Hydraotis or Hyarotis at that time. If one goes further upstream in Himachal Pradesh, the headwaters of the Ravi were always the lifeline of the relatively isolated Chamba kingdom. The river system connected high mountain passes and fierce deities with the capitals of Bharmour and Chamba. The ancient Manimahesh Kailash yatra still traces its origins from this

Cockroach Janta Party: The Questions Its Leadership Cannot Escape

For a movement that seeks to shape public opinion on a national scale, scrutiny is not unfair. It is unavoidable MANZOOR BHAT The Image CJP Wants India to See Over the past few months, the Cockroach Janta Party (CJP) has rapidly transformed from a little-known social media phenomenon into a movement that commands national attention. Through carefully crafted messaging and an aggressive online presence, it has projected itself as an independent platform representing ordinary Indians against an unresponsive political establishment. To its supporters, CJP is the voice of the common citizen. To its critics, however, the movement raises questions that become more difficult to ignore with every passing day. The debate surrounding CJP is no longer about its slogans or its social media campaigns. The real debate is about the people behind the movement, the political networks surrounding them, and whether the image being presented to the public reflects the full reality. As with every political movement that rises rapidly and claims to represent millions, the most important place to begin is not with what it says, but with who is leading it. The Man Behind the Movement At the centre of CJP stands its founder, Abhijeet Dipke. For a movement that presents itself as an independent citizens initiative, Dipkes political background has become a subject of increasing scrutiny. Public reports and archived material have linked him to the Aam Aadmi Partys social media ecosystem, while old posts attributed to him reportedly show him expressing gratitude towards senior AAP leader Manish Sisodia and reaffirming his commitment to the party. Dipke has maintained that he stepped away from active political involvement after moving to the United States for higher studies. However, that explanation has done little to silence questions. In an age where political campaigns, digital operations, and narrative-building are increasingly conducted online, physical distance means very little. Critics, therefore argue that the more relevant question is not whether Dipke left India, but whether he truly left the political ecosystem he had been associated with. On their own, such associations are not evidence of wrongdoing. India is a democracy, and political participation is a legitimate right. However, the issue is not whether Dipke once had political affiliations. The issue is whether the public is being given the complete picture. When a movement presents itself as a fresh alternative to conventional politics while being led by individuals with documented political histories, questions naturally arise about how independent that movement truly is. This is where the story begins to move beyond personalities and towards patterns. The Faces Around the Movement The questions surrounding CJP do not end with its founder. If anything, they become even more interesting when one examines the individuals the movement recently appointed as its public faces. When CJP announced Ashutosh Ranka, Vijeta Dahiya, and Saurav Das as official spokespersons, the decision immediately attracted attention because each of them carried baggage from the same political ecosystem that CJP insists it stands apart from. Among the three, Ashutosh Rankas links are perhaps the most direct. Ranka previously served as both a national spokesperson and state spokesperson for the Aam Aadmi Party in Rajasthan. For years, he represented the party in public debates, authored opinion pieces defending its positions, and regularly appeared in television discussions as one of AAPs recognised voices. His presence within CJP, therefore, raises an obvious question. If the movement is genuinely detached from traditional party structures, why are former party spokespersons occupying such visible positions within its leadership? Vijeta Dahiya presents a different but equally interesting case. While he was never formally enrolled as an AAP office- bearer, his public record reflects extensive support for the party and its campaigns. He actively promoted AAP during previous elections and became associated with a broader digital ecosystem that frequently aligned itself with opposition narratives. Dahiya is also known for his work as a researcher and scriptwriter for Dhruv Rathee, a prominent political commentator who has publicly expressed support for AAP on multiple occasions. The third spokesperson, Saurav Das, further complicates the picture. While not an official AAP functionary, Das built a reputation through activism, investigative reporting, and commentary that often intersected with issues involving senior AAP leadership. His name gained wider attention during legal controversies related to reporting and social media commentary surrounding the Delhi excise policy case. Critics have long argued that his work frequently aligned with narratives favourable to the party and its leadership. Viewed individually, each of these backgrounds can be explained away as a coincidence. Yet politics is not usually analysed through isolated coincidences. It is analysed through recurring patterns. When a movement that claims to be independent repeatedly places individuals with links, sympathies, or professional histories connected to the same political ecosystem at the centre of its public operations, scepticism becomes inevitable. The question is no longer about a single individual. It becomes a question about the ecosystem from which the movement has emerged. A Familiar Political Playbook Indian politics has witnessed this model before. More than a decade ago, the anti-corruption movement led by Anna Hazare captured the imagination of millions. It began as a citizens movement that claimed to stand above political parties and ideological divisions. Yet over time, that movement evolved into the Aam Aadmi Party, one of the most successful political experiments in modern Indian history. The lesson from that period was simple. Public anger can be transformed into political capital. Many critics see echoes of that strategy in the rise of CJP. Once again, a movement has emerged claiming to represent ordinary citizens against a flawed system. Once again, social media serves as the primary engine of mobilisation. Once again, anti-establishment messaging forms the core of its public identity. The similarities do not automatically prove coordination or control. But they are significant enough to invite scrutiny. Political movements are rarely judged solely by what they claim to be. They are judged by their methods, their leadership, and the broader context in which they emerge. This broader context makes the

Bucketlistt Raises INR 1.07 Crore in Pre Seed Funding to Build India's Experiences Infrastructure

Bucketlistt, a curated experiences marketplace, has raised INR 1.07 crore in a pre seed angel funding round at a post money valuation of INR 10.07 crore, as it looks to organize and digitize Indias fragmented experiences and tourism market. The round saw participation from a group of angel investors including Arvind Choudhar, Aenik Shah, Kartik Khatri, and Yash Mehta. L-R Divyam Shah, CA Nitant Desai, CA Shubham Makhecha Founded by CA Shubham Makhecha (AIR 36), CA Nitant Desai, and Divyam Shah, Bucketlistt is building a curated marketplace for verified experiences across India, ranging from bungee jumping and river rafting to spiritual and immersive local experiences. Alongside its consumer facing platform, the company has also launched OkGhumo, an ERP and CRM platform designed specifically for experience and activity operators to manage bookings, operations, and finances. The company will use the fresh capital to strengthen its technology stack, expand its operator network across key destinations, accelerate customer acquisition, and build out its team. Indias experience tourism market is estimated at USD 45 billion, driven by rising disposable incomes and growing consumer demand for experiential travel. Despite the size of the opportunity, the sector remains highly fragmented, with travelers often relying on unorganized operators or generic online travel platforms that lack specialization and trust. Bucketlistt is positioning itself as a trusted, technology first platform focused on curated and verified experiences. Rishikesh, offering experiences such as skydiving, hot air balloon rides, ziplines, giant swings, rafting, camping, and front row access to the Ganga Aarti . As part of its expansion plans, Bucketlistt is preparing to launch in destinations including Manali, Bir, and Jaipur, while broadening its portfolio beyond adventure experiences to include curated cultural and spiritual offerings such as Dinner with the King of Rajwada, VIP Darshan at the Ujjain Mahakal Aarti, and authentic Feni making experiences in Goa. According to the company, every operator listed on the platform is vetted directly by its founding team before onboarding. Its recently launched SaaS platform, OkGhumo, is aimed at solving the operational inefficiencies faced by experienced businesses. The platform has already onboarded three vendors collectively representing over INR 40 crore in annual business volume. Adventure travel in India has long lacked trust, standardization, and digital infrastructure. Consumers often struggle to find reliable, verified operators, while vendors continue to manage their businesses through fragmented systems. We are building both sides of that infrastructure by creating a trusted discovery and booking platform for travelers, while equipping operators with purpose built software to run and scale their businesses more efficiently. This funding gives us the foundation to deepen our presence in existing markets and expand into new adventure hubs across India, said Shubham Makhecha, Co founder of Bucketlistt. Bucketlistt was founded by a team with backgrounds in finance, operations, and technology, with deep personal involvement in the experiences ecosystem. Co founder Shubham Makhecha is also a certified paragliding pilot and trek leader who has guided more than 3,000 participants across India. Indias adventure tourism ecosystem is large but still significantly underserved by organized, technology led players , said Yash Mehta, Angel Investor and Founder, Joyspoon . What stood out to us was Bucketlistts dual platform approach, building a trusted consumer marketplace while also embedding itself deeply into the operator ecosystem through OkGhumo. The founders have demonstrated strong execution in a short period, and we believe they are well positioned to help formalize and scale this category . Looking ahead, Bucketlistt plans to launch a consumer mobile app, introduce loyalty and dynamic pricing features, expand to additional destinations across India, and further develop OkGhumos product capabilities, including future integrations and AI powered booking infrastructure. About Bucketlistt Bucketlistt is an online curated marketplace for experiences, enabling customers to discover and book a wide variety of unique experiences across India. From skydiving in Delhi and attending the Ujjain Mahakal Aarti to exclusive cultural experiences such as dining with the King of Rajwada, the platform is designed to make experiential travel more accessible, trusted, and seamless for modern travelers. Built on a technology first approach, Bucketlistt carefully curates and verifies every experience and operator listed on the platform to ensure quality, safety, and reliability. Beyond its consumer marketplace, the company is also building digital infrastructure for experience providers through OkGhumo, its ERP and CRM platform designed to help operators manage bookings, operations, and finances efficiently. Founded in 2025, Bucketlistt is building toward becoming Indias trusted platform for discovering and booking memorable experiences across adventure, culture, spirituality, and lifestyle categories.
