F-35 Is Fantastic, But Not For Us: Why Abhijit Iyer-Mitra Doesn't Trust Trump With Kill A Switch
Should India buy Americas F-35 stealth fighter? Defence analyst Abhijeet Iyer-Mitra delivers a blunt answer: Absolutely not. In a candid conversation with Meghna Deka on Defence HQ, he explains why the F-35s extraordinary technology may come with extraordinary dependence. From American-controlled upgrades and weapons to intelligence-sharing restrictions and satellite targeting, India could find itself locked into Washingtons ecosystem. Abhijeet warns that 6070 percent of the aircrafts capabilities may remain unusable if it cannot connect with Indias French, Russian and Israeli systems. He also examines the F-35 experience of Turkey and the UAE, the strategic reliability of France, the limitations of Russias Su-57, the crisis of Tejas deliveries and the case for private-sector defence production. His final verdict is clear: the most expensive thing India can buy is dependence.#f35 #f35fighter #indianairforce #defencehq #abhijeetiyermit ra #defenceanalysis #rafale #tejas #su57 #strategicautonomy #defenceprocurement #indiandefence #militarytechnology #fighterjets #indiausrelations
'WHOS THIS B*TCH? Trump Vs Taylor Swift ERUPTS On TikTok; POTUS Tells MAGA Crowd - I AM NUMBER 1
Donald Trump claims he is more popular than Taylor Swift on TikTok! Speaking at a campaign rally in Bullhead City, Arizona, the US president claimed he ranked number one on the platform while the global pop superstar ranked 19th. But publicly available follower figures tell a very different story.According to Social Blade, Taylor Swift had approximately 33.4 million TikTok followers, compared with around 17 million for Trump's account. Trump also claimed he had generated $10 billion for the United States through TikTok, but provided no evidence to support the figure. He previously made a similar claim in July, saying Swift ranked 11th.

'MERZ YOU FAILED': AfD Chief Explodes In Parliament; Chancellor GRILLED Over Ukraine War Aid
German Chancellor Friedrich Merz faced a heated showdown in parliament as he defended billions of euros in military aid for Ukraine and Germanys rising defence spending. Merz insisted that not a single euro spent on Ukraine is being taken away from Germanys social welfare or education budgets, pushing back against growing criticism of his governments spending priorities.Merz also defended increased investment in Germanys security, arguing that defence spending is essential to protecting the countrys economy, society and democratic institutions. Germany has provided or earmarked around 57.6 billion in military assistance to Ukraine since February 2022, according to government figures published in 2026. Berlin also recently announced a support package worth more than 1.3 billion, including interceptor drones and energy assistance.
Administrative Reform Or Regime Control? The Hidden Cost Of Munirs Plan To 'Split Up' Pakistan
Pakistan could be on the verge of a historic map makeover. Army chief Field Marshal Asim Munir has proposed breaking up the nations four traditional provinces into 12 to 15 smaller administrative regionsor even up to 160 smaller zones. While official arguments centre around improving governance and local public services for 240 million citizens, critics warn of a massive underlying shift in power.In this video, we break down how dismantling these provincial strongholds could crush civilian political dynasties like the Sharifs and Bhuttos, give Islamabad greater control over resource-rich regions like Balochistan, and consolidate the military establishment's grip on the country. Is this genuine reform, or a high-stakes power grab?
Elon's Starlink 'Blocks' Ukraine Troops, Zelensky Weeps; India's Security Concern Proven Right
Elon Musk says India is blocking competition and wants Starlink cleared now. But Ukraine has shown why New Delhi insists on security clearance first. Ukrainian officials say Starlink restricted its military satellite service, Starshield, without any warning, capping terminal speeds at about 100 mph. They say the cap disrupted combat missions, including long-range strike drones and interceptors used against Russian Shahed attack drones. President Zelenskyy warned that people were killed and more will die. Kyiv links the timing to Donald Trumps pressure on Ukraine and his understanding with Vladimir Putin, while SpaceX may call it a technical or contractual call. Musk calls Delhis caution protectionism. Delhi calls it prudence. So what happens when Starlink sits inside Indias critical communications? We break down control, data and strategic dependence, plus Indias checklist: Indian gateways, local data, lawful interception and geo-fencing. Watch and subscribe for sharp geopolitics.

'Ilhan Omar goes back to Somalia': Trump torches Congresswoman in fiery rant | MN Somali fraud
Digital Desk | New Delhi, Oct 15 (IANS) The Bharatiya Janata Party (BJP) on Thursday hit out at Lok Sabha Leader of Opposition (LoP) Rahul Gandhi, saying that India is unfortunate to have an anarchic individual as the LoP after the Supreme Court issued a notice seeking response in connection with the protest and sloganeering on its premises on October 12. Addressing a press conference, BJP national spokesperson Gaurav Bhatia accused the Congress of disrespecting the Constitution, the judiciary and the dignity of women police personnel. Everyone knows the kind of Leader of the Opposition Rahul Gandhi is. The people of the country also believe that it is unfortunate for India to have such an anarchic, immature, irresponsible individual, who is ignorant of the Constitution, serving as the Leader of the Opposition, he remarked. Maintaining that the Constitution grants citizens the fundamental right to protest, Gaurav Bhatia asked: However, does the right to protest extend beyond its constitutional limits and become a license for hooliganism and sloganeering, whether on public roads, public spaces, or within the premises of the Supreme Court itself? Referring to the INDIA bloc's protest march on October 12, the BJP spokesperson said: Attempting to turn the sacred premises of the Supreme Court, the temple of justice, into a protest site and using mob pressure to intimidate the Judiciary is something only an anarchic and irresponsible person like Rahul Gandhi could do. He noted that the Supreme Court has issued a notice to Congress, Rahul Gandhi and other INDIA bloc leaders on a petition against march towards the apex court and a now-deleted X post against Chief Justice of India (CJI) Surya Kant. Referring to the recent deleted social media post by the Kerala Congress, the BJP leader said: Such threats and such a mindset have emerged at the behest of Rahul Gandhi. Once the social media post gained widespread attention, the Congress party, true to its habit of causing damage first and then running away from responsibility, deleted the post. Gaurav Bhatia referred to the SC's notice over misconduct and indecent behaviour towards women police personnel during the protests, saying: Whenever the Congress talks about patriarchy, those claiming to be concerned about the dignity of women must answer whether Rahul Gandhi also has the right to violate the dignity of a woman police officer by touching her inappropriately? Accusing the Congress of adopting double standards, the BJP spokesperson said: On the one hand, it worships women in the form of goddesses during Navratri, while on the other hand, it plays with the dignity of women and allows uniformed women personnel to be touched inappropriately. Such conduct can only come from an irresponsible Leader of the Opposition, known merely by his surname, Rahul Gandhi, and his anti-Constitution party. Underlining that preventing any police officer, whether male or female, from discharging their official duty is an offence under the penal laws of our country, Gaurav Bhatia said: This is not just Rahul Gandhi's problem; it reflects a mindset that believes, 'We are the Gandhi family and therefore we are above the law.' Concern for women's dignity arises only when the women belong to the Gandhi family. He claimed that the visuals clearly show Congress MP Priyanka Gandhi Vadra hitting, elbowing, and pushing a woman police officer. Thereafter, she (Priyanka Gandhi Vadra) retreats into her Z-plus security cover and escapes accountability, he remarked.

Punjab youngster Jagsher Singh Khangurra is a former under-17 national champion and Asian medallist in his age-group. He came into prominence with a medal in the under-15 nationals two years back and has since gone from strength to strength, turning his casual interest in the game into a passion and a possible career option. After getting initial training at an academy in Bahadurgarh and then at the Uday Pawar Academy in Mumbai, Jagsher Singh has been associated with the Centre of Excellence in Bangalore under former national coach Vimal Kumar for the last two years.

India's balance of payments posts USD 45.4 billion surplus in August: RBI
India's overall balance of payments (BoP) recorded a surplus of USD 45.4 billion in August 2026, compared with a deficit of USD 5.6 billion in the same month last year, supported by a sharp rise in foreign currency inflows, particularly non-resident Indian (NRI) deposits, according to data released by the Reserve Bank of India (RBI) on Thursday. The sharp improvement comes even as India's current account remained in deficit, highlighting the role of foreign capital inflows in strengthening the country's external financial position. According to the data, the overall BoP surplus rose from USD 20.8 billion in July 2026 to USD 45.4 billion in August. A major contributor was the sharp increase in banking capital inflows, which reached USD 64.7 billion in August, compared with an outflow of USD 4.7 billion in August 2025. Within this category, net NRI deposits rose sharply to USD 83 billion during August, against USD 1 billion in the corresponding month last year. The increase in foreign cu...

Pakistani student's suicide proof of system that allows exploitation of educational ambitions
Digital Desk | Islamabad, Oct 15 (IANS) The death of a young student of the International Islamic University Islamabad (IIUI) - reportedly by committing suicide after she discovered that the admission and scholarship she believed she had secured were fake - is an indictment of a system that allows unscrupulous individuals to exploit the educational ambitions of young Pakistanis with seemingly little fear of being caught or punished, a report has detailed. The young Pakistani woman who earned a gold medal and dreamed of studying at Harvard University died as her goal of studying at Harvard University was allegedly exploited by people who promised her that she will get admission and a scholarship in exchange for money. She paid Pakistani Rupees (PKR) 9.3 million through a scheme involving fake university documents, according to the Federal Investigation Agency (FIA), a report in leading Pakistani daily 'The Friday Times' mentioned. Laiba Aijaz, a student of the International Islamic University Islamabad (IIUI), reportedly died by suicide after discovering that the admission and scholarship she believed she had secured were fake. It is a heartbreaking tragedy. But it is also an indictment of a system that allows unscrupulous individuals to exploit the educational ambitions of young Pakistanis with seemingly little fear of being caught or punished. And unless something changes, Laiba will not be the last student whose dreams are shattered by this flourishing industry of deception, Karachi-based journalist Omar Quraishi wrote in The Friday Times. Education consultants and visa consultants in Pakistan promise students that they will get admission in prestigious universities abroad, scholarships, student visas and guaranteed immigration. Some of these consultants provide legitimate services but the industry also includes individuals who prey on desperation, ambition and ignorance of foreign admissions procedures. According to the report, the lack of effective oversight in Pakistan implies that anyone can present themselves as an educational consultant, advertise their services on social media and start collecting money from unsuspecting students and their families. The FIR registered by the FIA on October 10 stated that two people - Muhammad Nauman and Fatima Sarwar, also identified as Aiza, allegedly obtained PKR 9.3 million from Laiba Aijaz after they promised her that they would arrange a US visa and university scholarship for her. According to the FIR, PKR 2.9 million were transferred through the bank account while the remaining payment was made in cash. Investigators allege that these individuals had provided Laiba Aijaz fake scholarship letters, fee payment receipts and university admission offers. The FIR also mentioned the subsequent death of Laiba Aijaz. However, the FIA has not mentioned the cause of her death.
EC announces Special Summary Revision of voters' list in 17 states amid SIR row
While a Summary Revision focuses on new eligibles and routine corrections, SIR goes far deeper, involving statewide house-to-house verification, detailed scrutiny of entries, and large-scale data audits. For instance, under a Summary Revision, a voter who has shifted homes must file a form to update their address. Under SIR, the Booth Level Officer visits that address, confirms whether the voter still lives there, checks if anyone new has become eligible, and updates the roll based on physical verification rather than waiting for the voter to initiate the change.

'Oppn leaders, students detained only to protect one man, Gyanesh Kumar': CJP's Dipke
Digital Desk | New Delhi, Oct 15 (IANS) Cockroach Janta Party (CJP) founder Abhijeet Dipke on Thursday attacked the BJP-led government, at the Centre saying that the police crackdown on October 10 protests was only intended to save one man, Chief Election Commissioner (CEC) Gyanesh Kumar. Addressing a press conference here, Dipke said: Since the media report claiming differences within the poll panel was published, the government has been using all its system and machinery to protect Gyanesh Kumar. All student organisations and youths are fighting out on the streets of Delhi for the past few days. They are being dragged on roads, just to save one man, Gyanesh Kumar. He pointed that even Opposition leaders were not spared. Even the LoP (Rahul Gandhi), former Chief Ministers Mamata Banerjee, Arvind Kejriwal and Pinarayi Vijayan were all detained, just to protect Gyanesh Kumar, he added. Referring to the crackdown on the CJP-led protests on October 10, Dipke said: Probably it was the first time in the country that Railways were shut down, again only for Gyanesh Kumar. Not satisfied with shutting down the Railways, they shut down the Metro and closed Metro stations across Delhi. For whom? For Gyanesh Kumar. Still not satisfied, they called in forces from Jammu and Kashmir. If all this was not all, the government is now waging war against their own countrymen, he remarked. Referring to CJP leaders Saurav Das and Ashutosh Ranka's judicial custody, he said: You have even called unfurling the Tricolour a violation of law. Just for Gyanesh Kumar? You have brought Delhi to a standstill, turned the city into a border, like the India-Pakistan border. You have called in all the forces to Delhi...All this for one Gyanesh Kumar? Why is Gyanesh Kumar so important to Narendra Modi? If he is not helping the (BJP) to win elections, why is Narendra Modi providing him with so much protection? The CJP chief further remarked: 'One nation, one election' is just a slogan, the real intention is one nation, one party...If you want to detain student leaders, activists and Opposition leaders like this, declare an official emergency, what are you afraid of? Dipke reiterated his call for 'Tiranga Assembly' urging people to gather at the Central Park in New Delhi's Connaught Place at 5 p.m. tomorrow, to wave the Tricolour in protest against the arrest of his party's co-conveners Saurav Das and Ashutosh Ranka. He requested all political parties, civil society members, labour and famer unions to join the gathering, leaving aside their respective political inclinations. We have to come together to save our democracy. If our vote is protected only then democracy will be saved. Ashutosh and Saurav have been jailed for waving the Tricolour. Waving the National Flag cannot be a crime. Nothing is more important than the Tricolour, and Gyanesh Kumar is surely not, Abhijeet Dipke asserted. The press conference was also addressed by AISA National President Neha Bora, JNUSU former President Aishe Ghosh, senior advocate Prashant Bhushan, actor Prakash Raj and others.

Digital Desk | Mumbai, Oct 15 (IANS) Bollywood actress Sharvari, who is gearing up for the release of her upcoming film Yeh Prem Mol Liya, has said that the song 'Jhumka Patola' from the film gave her the opportunity to explore her love for dance in a way she hadn't before as she was under the aegis of Sooraj R. Barjatya whose songs have defined the soundscape in Hindi cinema of the 90s. The actress said that Sooraj Barjatya's approach goes beyond choreography, with every movement and expression rooted in the story. Talking about the same, she said in a statement, I've always loved dancing, but with Sooraj sir, a song is so deeply woven into the narrative that you can't look at it as just a dance performance. While shooting 'Jhumka Patola', he would walk me through what the moment meant for my character and share stories from the songs he has made over the years, and I tried to carry that into every step and expression. The actress has made a strong impression with her energetic dance performances in Bollywood, particularly with chartbusters like Taras from Munjya and Holiyaan from Vedaa. In Taras, her first major solo dance number, Sharvari showcased her screen presence, confident moves and ability to carry a vibrant, contemporary Bollywood track. The song received attention for its catchy beats and her performance. She further mentioned, Dance has its own language, and sometimes a song can say what a scene simply cannot. There's a reason certain songs stay with us for years, they become inseparable from the characters and moments we remember. 'Jhumka Patola' let me explore my love for dance in a way I hadn't before, and after the warmth the title track 'Yeh Prem Mol Liya' has received, I can't wait for audiences to experience it. 'Yeh Prem Mol Liya' is set to release in cinemas on November 27, 2026.
