At SCO meet, Rajnath Singh cites Op Sindoor to warn against state-sponsored terrorism

New Delhi, Apr 28: Operation Sindoor demonstrated India's firm resolve that error epicentres are no longer immune to justifiable punishment, Defence Minister Rajnath Singh said on Tuesday, in remarks widely seen as a warning to Pakistan over cross-border terrorism. In an address at a conclave of Shanghai Cooperation Organisation (SCO) in Bishkek, Singh also called on the influential grouping to not lose sight of state-sponsored cross-border terrorism and that there should not be any place for any double standards in combating the menace. Delving into ongoing conflicts and geopolitical upheavals, Singh said that the eal test of power is not in using it against the poor and the weak, but to use it in the interest of those who are unable to defend themselves. There is a need to focus on global consensus where co-existence, co-habitation and compassion take precedence over chaos, competition and conflict, he said. The defence minister emphasised that the SCO should not hesitate in seeking appropriate action against those who abet, shelter and provide safe havens to terrorists. We must not lose sight of state-sponsored cross-border terrorism which attacks the very sovereignty of a nation state. There is no place for any double standards and SCO should not hesitate in seeking appropriate action against those who abet, shelter and provide safe havens to terrorists, he said. Singh strongly pitched for a unified front to tackle the evils of terrorism, separatism and extremism. By tackling terrorism, separatism, and extremism without exception, we (can) transform regional security from a challenge into a cornerstone for peace and prosperity, he said in presence of defence ministers from China, Russia and other member states of the grouping. The defence minister described terrorism as the the most serious threat to the emerging world order and noted that counter-terror cooperation has been a foundational principle of the SCO. On April 22, we remembered the victims of the heinous terrorist attack in Pahalgam. The carnage in Pahalgam shook the entire humanity, he said. During Operation Sindoor, we demonstrated our firm resolve that terrorism epicentres are no longer immune to justifiable punishment, he added. Singh also recalled the declaration unveiled at last year's SCO summit in Chinese city of Tianjin saying it brought out firm and collective stance against terrorism. It was a testimony to our zero-tolerance outlook towards terrorism and its perpetrators, which was endorsed by this esteemed forum. But the real test of our collective credibility remains in consistency, he said. We must not forget that terrorism has no nationality and no theology. No grievance, real or supposed, can become an excuse for terrorism and humanitarian loss, he said. The defence minister highlighted the significant role being played by the SCO's Regional Anti-Terrorist Structure and referred to the joint statement of the Heads of State on 'Countering Radicalisation leading to Terrorism, Separatism and Extremism' that was issued during India's chairmanship of the grouping. He further stated that in view of the present global uncertainties, the SCO holds a pivotal role. Do we need a new world order or a world which is more orderly? We need an order where every citizen of this world is treated with dignity and respect. We need an order where differences do not become disputes and disputes don't precede disasters, he said. The real crisis today is not of a non-existent order but a tendency to question the established rule-based world order. We must focus on a global consensus where co-existence, co-habitation and compassion take precedence over chaos, competition and conflict, he said. Singh noted that it is the responsibility of SCO to ensure regional as well as global peace and stability. We should continue to follow the path of dialogue and diplomacy and not of unrelenting force. We should not allow it to become an era of violence and war, but an era of peace and prosperity, he said. Let me recall the message of Mahatma Gandhi that an eye for an eye makes everyone blind and before every action, we must remember how that action can make a difference to the life of a poor and needy, he said. As people responsible for defence and security, we have the responsibility to uphold this spirit of brotherhood and harmony. The real test of power is not in using it against the poor and the weak, but to use it in the interest of those who are unable to defend themselves, he stated. Singh highlighted India's belief that SCO possesses the requisite strength and resolve to significantly contribute towards peace and stability. The ancient Indian philosophy of 'Vasudhaiva Kutumbakam' embodies this sense of togetherness, overcoming all differences of race and religion, he said. The defence minister also reiterated India's commitment to contribute constructively to the implementation of the SCO's mandate, advocating that greater cooperation and mutual trust among member states based on equality, mutual respect and deeper understanding can make this organisation a beacon of hope and peace. During the meeting, Singh along with his counterparts from other member countries, discussed ways to deal with the challenge of terrorism and radicalisation. The SCO members emphasised the symbolic significance of 2026, which marks the 25th anniversary of the founding of the organisation and how its role is becoming more important than ever due to growing unpredictability and uncertainty, according to the defence ministry. Singh landed in the capital city of Kyrgyzstan on Monday. The SCO, comprising India, China, Russia, Pakistan, Kazakhstan, Kyrgyzstan, Tajikistan, Uzbekistan, Iran and Belarus, is an influential economic and security bloc that has emerged as one of the largest transregional international organisations. It was founded at a summit in Shanghai in 2001 by the presidents of Russia, China, the Kyrgyz Republic, Kazakhstan, Tajikistan and Uzbekistan. Pakistan became its permanent member along with India in 2017. Iran joined the grouping in 2023 and Belarus in 2024.

New Delhi condemns Mali terror attacks, defence minister Sadio Camara's killing

New Delhi, Apr 28: New Delhi has strongly condemned the terrorist attacks in Mali that killed Defence Minister Sadio Camara and several others in a wave of coordinated violence across the country. In a statement, Ministry of External Affairs (MEA) said it strongly condemns the terrorist attacks in Mali targeting multiple locations, extending condolences to the victims families and expressing solidarity with the government and people of Mali. It also conveyed sincere condolences on the demise of General Sadio Camara, reaffirming Indias commitment to combating terrorism in all its forms. Camara was killed in an apparent suicide truck bombing that targeted his residence near the capital Bamako. Government officials said a vehicle laden with explosives rammed into his home, triggering a massive blast. He reportedly engaged the attackers before succumbing to injuries in hospital. The attack also killed members of his family and caused significant damage to nearby structures, including a mosque. The assault is part of a broader surge in violence, with jihadist groups linked to al-Qaeda and the Islamic State, along with separatist factions, launching coordinated strikes across multiple regions including Gao, Kidal and Mopti. Reports said Malis junta leader Assimi Gota was moved to a secure location after his residence was also targeted. Meanwhile, clashes continued in the north, where separatist groups claimed advances. The attacks mark one of the most intense escalations of violence in recent years in Mali, which has long grappled with insurgencies and instability in the Sahel region.

IPL 2026: 'If I Get The Chance, I Will Be 100 Percent Ready,' Says GT Keeper-batter Anuj Rawat

Anuj Rawat: Left-handed wicketkeeper-batter Anuj Rawat is yet to get game time in IPL 2026, but the Gujarat Titans wicketkeeper-batter insists he is 100 percent ready whenever hes called to play an IPL game for the 2022 champions and credited the franchise's rigorous training culture for keeping him sharp. With GT sitting on eight points and fifth place in the second half of the season, Rawat said the mood inside the camp is anything but subdued. As you can see, we have eight points and we are almost halfway through the season. So, I think the atmosphere of the team and the way we are going with two points recently, I can see a lot of positivity, Rawat told IANS in an exclusive conversation on Tuesday. The call for Rawat being retained by GT support staff led by head coach Ashish Nehra brought immediate reassurance and the happiness of being in the same side for the IPL instead of the possibility of making a fresh start elsewhere. There was no specific message like that, but there was a conversation that we will retain you. As soon as our sir's call and message came, he said that we are retaining you ahead of the auction. So, this was the only conversation. Definitely, I was very happy because you will represent that franchise again with which you have already been with for a season. So, I think that thing helps a lot because if you go to a new franchise, then you have to come back to a new setup. Everything in it - the coaching staff is different, the environment is different. If you are being retained for the same franchise, then there are a lot of things that are in your favour, he elaborated. Delhi-based Rawat, who has 318 runs in 24 IPL games, reserved particular praise for the culture in GT, which stands in contrast with his previous stints in the tournament. I think when I was in the last franchise, I was in a different room. So, the atmosphere of a dressing room is very much similar. But the GT dressing room environment is very friendly and this is the thing that makes GT different from other franchises, he said. One notable thread of continuity from his Rajasthan Royals days has been his association with veteran wicketkeeper-batter Jos Buttler, who now turns out alongside him at GT. I was with him when I was in Rajasthan and now I got a chance to play alongside him in GT. So, our bonding from the time at Rajasthan is still very similar. Our bond is very good. You get to learn a lot of things when you practice with him and do wicket keeping drills. He is a legend and there are definitely some small things that you learn from him, Rawat said. On the challenge of staying match-ready without regular game time, Rawat acknowledged the mental and physical discipline it demands. I think this is the most difficult thing if you are not playing and you are in a team setup. But I think this is also a specialty of a cricketer - if you are not playing, how do you aim to be complete in your preparation, as whenever you get a chance, you have to be 100 percent ready. So, I think it is very important as a cricketer that if you are not getting a chance, you still have to be 100 percent ready and be involved in that setup and aim to be 100 percent ready in your preparation, he said. Rawat also reflected on the transition between IPL and domestic cricket, where the real shift is in intensity. There is not much difference when one goes to domestic cricket after an IPL season. There is a slight difference, but then there is a little more pressure. The atmosphere and pressure that we talk about in cricket, a little bit of difference remains, he said. He further stated GT's training methods had raised his overall game and shaped his approach to playing domestic cricket as well. On the field, I felt a very vast difference when I came to GT. One thing is that you have to prepare a lot here. In the time I have played in all the franchises, all the practice sessions and preparations here are conducted a lot more and are done little differently too. So, I think that reflects in your off-season as well. After that, when you go for the domestic season, I realized this time that the extensive preparation I went through at GT has been very helpful, Rawat said. He further stated GT's training methods had raised his overall game and shaped his approach to playing domestic cricket as well. On the field, I felt a very vast difference when I came to GT. One thing is that you have to prepare a lot here. In the time I have played in all the franchises, all the practice sessions and preparations here are conducted a lot more and are done little differently too. Also Read: Live Cricket Score I think as a cricketer, I am 100 percent ready. But it is very important that your team keeps winning, as that will be the most important factor in the competition.

M3M Foundation's 'Dance for Dignity' Becomes a Celebration of Human Spirit at Delhi

For two extraordinary days in New Delhi, dance became more than movement it became confidence, courage, and hope. Under the banner of Dance for Dignity, powered by M3M Foundation in collaboration with RDX Dance Championship Season 4, the stage at OP Jindal Auditorium transformed into a platform where stories of perseverance found their voice and talent found its rightful recognition. What unfolded over these two days was not merely a dance championship it was a celebration of human spirit. M3M Foundation's Dance for Dignity Grand Finale Winners with Kamlesh Patel and Aishwarya Mahajan, President and Trustee, M3M Foundation Participants traveled from across the country from the cultural lanes of Kolkata, the temple town of Mathura, the energetic streets of Chandigarh, and many other regions bringing with them years of silent practice, unspoken dreams, and unwavering belief. For many, this was their first time performing on a national stage; for others, it was a moment they had waited for their entire lives. One of the most unforgettable moments came when Jyoti Gupta, a 58-year-old participant in the Super Mom category, stepped onto the stage with determination in her eyes. Her performance was not just about rhythm it was about reclaiming confidence, proving that age is never a limitation to passion. When she was announced as the winner of the Super Mom category, the applause carried a deeper meaning it celebrated courage, persistence, and dignity. Another powerful story emerged from a group of dancers from Chandigarh, who once practiced on open streets and local grounds with limited resources. Standing under national lights, performing before an audience that recognized their effort, their journey symbolized the true purpose of Dance for Dignity creating opportunities where none existed before. Across two vibrant days, over 100 participants performed in categories including Solo Junior, Classical, Solo Senior, Duet, Group, and Super Mom, presenting a breathtaking range of dance forms from graceful classical expressions to high-energy freestyle and synchronized group acts. Young children discovering their confidence shared the stage with adults rediscovering their dreams, proving that dance connects generations and strengthens belief. At the heart of this celebration stood Kamlesh Patel, whose journey embodies the spirit of resilience that defines Dance for Dignity. Known for his association with iconic platforms such as Dance India Dance and Boogie Woogie, and honored with prestigious recognitions including the Presidents Award, his presence reminded participants that determination can transform limitations into strength and dreams into reality. Guiding the competition was an accomplished panel of judges including Kamlesh Patel, Arjun Chouhan, Deepika Soni, Kaushal Pradhan, Vaibhav Ghuge, and Piyush Chauhan, whose mentorship encouraged performers to push boundaries and believe in their creative potential. Adding to the spirit of celebration were spectacular showcase performances that energized the audience. A breathtaking gymnastics performance by Lakshay Scholars, known for their appearance on Americas Got Talent, showcased discipline and precision, while an electrifying performance by internationally acclaimed Zumba instructor Ms. Ana filled the auditorium with energy and enthusiasm. The championship also celebrated excellence across categories, with inspiring winners emerging as symbols of perseverance and dedication. Among them were Poppim Smiley in the Solo Junior category, Manvi Sharma in the Classical category, Gautam Pathak in the Solo Senior category, White Collar Crew in the Group category, and Jyoti Gupta, whose victory in the Super Mom category stood as a moment of inspiration for audiences and participants alike. Beyond the stage, Dance for Dignity reflected the deeper social vision of M3M Foundation to empower individuals, nurture confidence, and provide platforms that transform hidden talent into recognized potential. By creating opportunities for performers from diverse backgrounds, the Foundation continues to champion inclusion and ensure that talent is celebrated with dignity, regardless of age, geography, or circumstance. Reflecting on the success of the initiative, Dr. Payal Kanodia, Chairperson and Trustee, M3M Foundation , said," Dance for Dignity is about believing in people and giving them the confidence to step forward. Every performance we witnessed carried a journey of courage and determination. At M3M Foundation, our commitment goes beyond the stage we continue to support these talented individuals and create opportunities that help them grow with dignity and self-belief. " As the final applause echoed through the auditorium, one truth stood clear Dance for Dignity is not just an event; it is a movement of hope, confidence, and transformation. Because sometimes, a single stage does more than showcase talent it restores belief, builds confidence, and gives dreams the dignity they deserve. About M3M Foundation M3M Foundation is the philanthropic arm of the M3M Group, working across education, health, livelihoods, sports, and environment. With a reach across 22 states and over 1,300 villages, the Foundation has positively impacted more than 5 million lives, driven by a vision of inclusive, sustainable, and transformative nation-building.

IPL 2026: 'Lot Of Players Complete Their Quota And Leave, But Bhuvi Is Not Like That,' Says Chawla

Royal Challengers Bengaluru: Former India leg-spinner Piyush Chawla lauded Bhuvneshwar Kumar for his relentless work ethic and commitment, stating that the senior pacers belief in quantity over quality practice played a key role in his match-winning performance for Royal Challengers Bengaluru (RCB) against Delhi Capitals (DC) on Monday. Chawla highlighted the ongoing debate around workload management and modern training methods, praising Bhuvneshwar Kumar for his intelligent and disciplined practice routine, which consistently translates into strong performances on the field. People talk about workload management and quality practice. I understand that after playing so many years, you know where to bowl. But still, you have to go out there and bowl the number of balls you want. I am not a big believer in only quality practice because I believe in quantity, and thats what Bhuvi also does. Whenever he goes to the nets, he makes sure he bowls eight to ten overs and gets that rhythm back. Thats what makes him a better bowler, Chawla told ESPNcricinfo. Chawla believes that Bhuvneshwars dedication to put in long hours in training and maintaining intensity across tournaments continues to set him apart from many peers. The good thing about Bhuvi is that he puts in a lot of effort. He makes sure that whatever games he is playing, he is playing with full intensity. I have seen a lot of players who come to domestic cricket, just complete their quota and leave, but he is not like that, he said. Chawla further emphasised that Bhuvneshwars commitment extends beyond international and IPL duties, pointing to his participation in domestic competitions. If he has come for a particular tournament, he stays there for the whole tournament. When he goes to the UP League as well, he plays all the matches. Its not a small tournament, its almost 25 to 30 days. Chawla further emphasised that Bhuvneshwars commitment extends beyond international and IPL duties, pointing to his participation in domestic competitions.

Chouhan noted that the approval of road projects worth nearly 8,000 crore for Jammu & Kashmir within a single year is a historic achievement. He assured that as construction progresses on the sanctioned roads, the Central Government will continue to take positive decisions on the remaining required routes. He emphasized that the objective is not merely road construction but connecting every village, habitation, and remote settlement to the mainstream of development, as roads bring schools, hospitals, markets, and opportunities closer to people. Focusing on womens empowerment, the Union Minister stated that a Mother Sanction exceeding 4,568.23 crore has been released under DAY-NRLM for women Self-Help Groups across 24 States and Union Territories. Addressing the women of Jammu & Kashmir, he said the goal is not limited to creating 'Lakhpati Didis' but to transform them into stronger and more empowered entrepreneurs. During the programme, Shri Shivraj Singh Chouhan and Shri Omar Abdullah also felicitated Lakhpati Didis. On agriculture and farmers issues, Shri Chouhan specifically referred to the challenges of small landholdings, difficult terrain, and weather-related risks in Jammu & Kashmir. He said the Central Government stands firmly with the region through the Holistic Agriculture Development Programme and will undertake concrete measures such as promoting clean planting material of improved varieties, establishing high-quality nurseries, and advancing scientific crop diversification. He announced that a team of scientists from the Indian Council of Agricultural Research will be deputed to Jammu & Kashmir to study its climate, soil, water resources, and agricultural potential, and to prepare a comprehensive roadmap. Highlighting integrated farming as an effective model for enhancing farmers income, Shri Chouhan said that instead of relying solely on grains, fruits, or vegetables, farmers can significantly increase their earnings by integrating allied activities such as animal husbandry, fisheries, sheep and goat rearing, beekeeping, and other enterprises. He added that the Central Government will work closely with the Jammu & Kashmir Government to design an integrated programme that makes agriculture more profitable, sustainable, and employment-oriented. In his address, Chief Minister Shri Omar Abdullah warmly welcomed Union Minister Shri Shivraj Singh Chouhan, describing him as a true friend and well-wisher of Jammu & Kashmir. He said, I wholeheartedly welcome Shri Shivraj Singh Chouhan to Srinagar and express my gratitude. You have repeatedly demonstrated that you are a true friend and well-wisher of the people of Jammu & Kashmir. The affection you have earned as Mama is well-deserved and suits you. We have accepted you with the same warmth and trust. You have spared no effort in strengthening our relationship. Your support and commitment towards the development of Jammu & Kashmir are truly commendable. Shri Omar Abdullah further stated that over the past one and a half years, Shri Chouhan has consistently shown sensitivity towards the needs of Jammu & Kashmir. Calling the 8,000 crore approval extraordinary, he said that such a large sanction in a single phase is significant, and the State Government will ensure speedy implementation on the ground. The Chief Minister emphasized that given Jammu & Kashmirs geographical terrain, scattered population, and challenges of hilly regions, road connectivity is transformative. He noted that earlier phases of PMGSY have already connected remote areas to schools, hospitals, markets, and essential services, and Phase-IV is crucial to link the remaining habitations. He assured that the State Government will work with full seriousness in implementing the approved projects, utilizing central assistance and shared contributions effectively, to bring tangible improvements in the lives of rural communities, farmers, horticulturists, and women associated with Self-Help Groups.
