Every student's life precious, protection must be ensured: Rahul Gandhi
The Congress on Sunday attacked the Modi government after a building housing a boys' PG collapsed in southwest Delhi's Satya Niketan area, with Rahul Gandhi asserting that every student's life is precious and their protection must be ensured under all circumstances. The five-storey building collapsed this afternoon, leaving one dead and several people trapped under the debris, officials said. The area is close to the heart of Delhi University's South Campus and has congested lanes lined with student hostels and eateries. In a post on X in Hindi, Gandhi said, The news of the building collapse in Satya Niketan, Delhi, is extremely heartbreaking and alarming. Reports indicate that several people are trapped under the debris, including many students from Delhi University. My appeal is that NDRF, Delhi Fire Service, and all rescue teams reach every single student by making every possible effort, ensuring that the injured receive the best possible immediate treatment, so that no effor

The goal is to avoid giving fear complete authority over important choices.
Afghanistan Foreign Minister, UNHCR representative discuss Afghan refugees' return
Kabul, Sep 6 (IANS) Afghanistan's Foreign Minister Amir Khan Muttaqi held a meeting with the United Nations High Commissioner for Refugees (UNHCR) representative in Afghanistan, Arafat Jamal, discussing the return of Afghan refugees and measures taken to provide them support and assistance after they arrive in the Islamic nation, local media reported on Sunday. During the meeting, Muttaqi and Jamal discussed strengthening cooperation and coordination between the Taliban-led government and the UNHCR to improve conditions for Afghan returnees, according to the statement released by Afghanistan's Ministry of Foreign Affairs, Afghanistan-based Ariana News reported. Both sides also discussed the need to coordinate the efforts of relevant countries and international organisations involved in or interested in supporting the return and reintegration of Afghan refugees. The meeting between Afghanistan's Foreign Minister and UNHCR representative comes at a time when international agencies have been reporting a rise in the deportation of Afghan refugees from neighbouring nations while emphasising the need for their dignified and safe return. Earlier in the day, Taliban Deputy Spokesman Hamdullah Fitrat shared a daily operational report from the High Commission for Addressing Returnees' Issues, where he mentioned that 201 Afghan families, comprising 1,002 individuals, returned from Pakistan and Iran on Saturday. In a report shared on social media platform X, Fitrat detailed that 105 families, comprising 571 people, returned to Afghanistan through the Torkham crossing. As many as five families, comprising 30 individuals, returned to Afghanistan through the Spin Boldak crossing and a total of 81 families, comprising 353 individuals, returned to the country through the Silk Bridge crossing in Nimroz province. According to the report, 10 families, comprising 48 individuals, returned to Afghanistan through the Islam Qala crossing. The report said that 121 families, comprising 692 individuals, were relocated to various provinces of Afghanistan. In the report, Fitrat said that assistance was provided to 132 families while 114 families were given SIM cards. On June 20, Amnesty International urged the international community to stop unlawful expulsion of Afghan refugees and called for protecting their needs as per international human rights law. Afghan refugees face arbitrary arrests and family separations in host nations and face human rights violations when they return to Afghanistan, the rights group said. Millions of Afghan refugees are being expelled across the globe, and that number keeps climbing day by day. In host countries, they are facing arbitrary arrests and family separations; upon return, they are facing human rights violations amidst one of the most severe humanitarian crisis in the world, Amnesty International said in a post on X. The unlawful expulsions of Afghan people must stop, and people with international protection needs must be safeguarded as per international human rights law, it added.

New Delhi, Sep 6 (IANS) New Delhi Municipal Council's (NDMC) Vice President Kuljeet Singh Chahal on Sunday planted trees in collaboration with the Central Government Employees Residential Welfare Association in Raja Bazaar area, marking the 40th successive Sunday under the Ek Ped Maa Ke Naam campaign. Taking inspiration from Prime Minister Narendra Modi's Ek Ped Maa Ke Naam campaign, local residents planted trees in honour of their mothers at Multi-Storey Flats Type-4 in DIZ Area's Sector-4 at Raja Bazaar, an official statement said. Addressing residents, Residential Welfare Association (RWA) officials, children, women and NDMC employees, Chahal said that this campaign, which has been ongoing for 40 consecutive Sundays, is proof that environmental protection is no longer just a government effort but is becoming a sustained campaign involving public participation. He added that planting a tree is only the beginning, the real responsibility lies in keeping it alive and growing it into a strong tree. Plants require regular watering, proper care, and protection. Therefore, the message of 'Ek Ped Maa Ke Naam' should not be limited to planting a tree but should be transformed into a resolution to plant a tree, protect it, and make it a tree, Chahal said. He added that every tree planted in the name of a mother symbolises both an emotional connection and our responsibility to the environment. A tree planted today can provide shade, clean air, greenery, and a better environment in the years to come, he said, appealing to local residents not to consider the trees planted around them merely as a tree planting activity but to take responsibility for them and contribute to their development. Those present on the occasion included RWA President Dharamveer, General Secretary Manoj Bansal, Treasurer Surendra, senior members Vaibhav Bajaj, Sudhanshu Pandey, Sanjay Kumar Mishra and Krishna Kumar, among others, from the Residential Welfare Association. During the event, local residents and officials of the Residential Welfare Association also raised various civic issues and demands related to the area with Chahal. The Residential Welfare Association requested that Multi-Storey Flats Type-4 in DIZ Area's Sector-4 at Raja Bazaar at Gol Market in New Delhi, be excluded from the redevelopment project. The Residential Welfare Association officials said that the building was newly constructed in 2017 and is currently in good condition, the statement said. In addition, issues related to the cleanliness, maintenance, and other civic amenities of the area's parks were also raised with the NDMC Vice President . Chahal directed officials to inspect local issues and ensure timely necessary action. He said that regular communication with the Residential Welfare Association and local residents helps understand the actual needs of the area and makes addressing civic issues more effective. Officials and employees from the New Delhi Municipal Council's Civil, Electricity, Health, and Horticulture departments were present at the event.

CPI-M's Tarigami questions Centres normalcy claims, calls for restoration of people's rights
Jammu, Sep 6: Senior CPI(M) leader Mohd Yousuf Tarigami on Sunday called for the restoration of the rights of people of Jammu and Kashmir, asserting that undermining their political and constitutional rights would neither serve the interests of the country nor help establish lasting peace. He also questioned the Centres claims of normalcy in the Union territory, saying the government must explain why members of the Kashmiri Pandit community are once again receiving threats from terrorists despite repeated assertions that peace has returned to the region. Talking to reporters on the sidelines of a function organized here to pay homage to party's General Secretary Sitaram Yechury ahead of his second death anniversary on September 12, Tarigami criticised the BJP over recent protests in Jammu and Srinagar. The BJP is also protesting, as is the National Conference (for statehood). But tell me, I myself could not understand what exactly the BJP is protesting about. As far as the BJP is concerned, they have the Government of India with them, and even the government here is effectively in their handsthe administration and officials here, the Kulgam MLA said. He asked whom the BJP could hold responsible for issues relating to governance and public order. So, whom are they going to complain to? Whom are they going to hold responsible? What exactly are they trying to say? he said. Tarigami also criticised the manner in which Jammu and Kashmir had been reorganised and called for restoration of what he described as the regions rights. The people cannot be misled for too long. Times are changing, both in Kashmir and here in Jammu, he said. Referring to the legislature, he alleged that it had been rendered powerless by the Centre. We hope that the legislature will be restored to its rightful position. The legislature has been rendered powerlesswho has made it powerless? The Government of India has done so, he said. He called for restoration of the rights of the people of Jammu and Kashmir, saying the move was essential for the regions future. The rights granted to the people of Jammu and Kashmir by the Constitution and the Constituent Assembly should be restored. That is where our security lies, and that is where our future lies as well...This is a question of the rights of Jammu. It is also a question of the rights of Kashmir. Therefore, weakening the people of Jammu and Kashmir does not serve the interests of the country. It will not help establish lasting peace, he said. Tarigami also raised questions over land and employment protections that existed during the rule of last Dogra ruler Maharaja Hari Singh, asking who subsequently changed those laws. I would like the BJP, and the BJP government, to answer this before the people of Jammu. The CPI(M) leader sought accountability over the fresh threats held out to Kashmiri pandits. They say the situation has improved and there is peace everywhere. This is what they say in Parliament and elsewhere. Then why is it happening again that a communitya minority community, which has already suffered immenselyis once again facing threats? He said the government must explain who was behind such incidents and what steps were being taken against them. The government needs to be held accountable on this issue. It must take the people into confidence and explain what is happening, which forces are behind such threats, and what the government is doing or intends to do to deal with those forces, Tarigami said. Paying homage to Yechury, he said the struggle associated with his leadership would continue, particularly for the rights of workers, farmers, youth, students and women. Tarigami also appealed to the people of Jammu, Kashmir and Ladakh to maintain their bonds despite the political changes and divisions in the region. On youth issues, the CPI(M) leader criticised the Centre over employment and the handling of student protests, referring to demonstrations at Delhi's Jantar Mantar in July. Until our young people protested at Jantar Mantar, faced lathis and sent to jail, the government did not listen, he said. Tarigami also criticised the governments economic policies, alleging that public assets were being privatised at the expense of ordinary citizens. Your airlines and airports are being sold, ports are being sold, power plants are being sold. Who is doing this? he asked. Questioning whether such policies served the wider public interest, he said, Is this being done for the benefit of the people of India? Or is it being done to increase the profits of a handful of large corporates?

UN-backed proposed world map must depict J&K, Ladakh as per India's official map: MEA
New Delhi, Sep 6: India on Sunday said a UN-initiated proposed world map must depict Union Territories of Jammu and Kashmir and Ladakh in accordance with the country's official map, and any inaccurate or misleading representation will be unacceptable. New Delhi's assertion came two days after it voted in favour of a UN General Assembly resolution aimed at correcting the world map to promote a more accurate representation of continental landmasses. The resolution titled Correct the Map: Rebalancing Global Cartographic Representation and Promoting Equitable Representation of the World's Regions, Particularly Africa was adopted on September 4. External Affairs Ministry spokesperson Randhir Jaiswal said India highlighted that the resolution does not constitute endorsement of any specific map, projection or depiction of national boundaries. India voted in favour of the resolution and also made an explanation of vote stressing on the underlying principle of promoting equal - area cartographic representation, he said. Jaiswal was responding to a media query on the issue. India's sovereign territory, including the Union Territories of Jammu and Kashmir and Ladakh, must be depicted in accordance with India's official map. Any inaccurate or misleading depiction is unacceptable, he said. Our position on India's sovereignty and territorial integrity is clear, consistent and non-negotiable, he noted. Jaiswal said the purpose of the UN resolution is o encourage the use of equal-area map projections that preserve the relative sizes of continental landmasses. The resolution neither adopts nor authenticates any particular world map, nor does it address political cartography, including international boundaries, disputed territories or place names, he said. The resolution, sponsored by Togo, received 164 votes in favour, with abstentions from Estonia, Georgia, Lithuania, Moldova, Serbia and Ukraine, and a lone vote against from the United States.
India's Satwik-Chirag Conquer China Masters

'Happy to break jinx, huge title boost before Asiad': Satwik-Chirag reflect on China Masters win
Shenzhen, Sep 6 (IANS) India's star shuttlers Satwiksairaj Rankireddy and Chirag Shetty reflected on their impressive victory in the China Masters doubles, calling it an end to a jinx and a huge boost before the Asian Games 2026. Satwik and Chirag, who missed a BWF World Championship medal in New Delhi last month, defeated the Chinese pair of He Ji Ting and Ren Xiang Yu in a thrilling three-game outing 11-21, 21-13 and 21-17. The Indian duo came close to winning the Chinese title twice previously but got their hands on the crown in the third attempt, as they reflected on their previous two misses. Playing here is always good. We have played (here) always coming back from injury. I think in 2024, after Olympics, we played here; we played the semis. Then last year we played; we weren't in good shape, and we played finals. I think this also like after coming back from injury, I think this has been a tournament that gave us a lot of confidence, Satwik told reporters after the win. Satwik and Chirag have been on the court for three games for the majority of the tournament. They made a comeback after losing the first game in the final and went on to win the title. I think today we held our nerve. We didn't do mistakes. So that was a positive from today's match, and we are just sticking to the game plan. We made a game plan before coming. We wanted to do that. So I think that has worked today, and we are really happy we kind of broke the jinx. Second title in 2026. We are really happy, he added. The Indians lacked the usual aggression in the first game and had to be pumped up by the coach at the sidelines as they mounted a comeback in the second and third games. Yeah, in the first game I think it wasn't lacking (aggression), but I think we were not playing the right strokes. We were playing a style which favoured them. And when we play a style which favours them, they come all guns blazing. You don't really find any space to play against them because they are extremely fast and furious. So in the second game when we started, we wanted to be aggressive, but mindfully aggressive. And that's what he was telling, Chirag said. Satwik unleashed his serving skills in the third game and won five points in a row to win the match. I think it's very rare I get five points in my service. It's always Chirag who takes the game. But I think again, I think in the quarterfinals when we played with Kim Astrup and Anders Skaarup Rasmussen, I think that match gave confidence. It was a similar scenario, 17 all, we were down. I was serving then. I have practised more in the service because I was injured. When I was injured, I was also doing a lot of serves. So I think that has helped me in the last two tournaments, Satwik said. The two will take the confidence from the China Masters into the Asian Games, which kick off on September 19. Obviously, going into the Asian Games, winning a title definitely gives a huge boost that, yes, what we are working for is in the right direction. But yeah, I think we'll go back home, push ourselves to the limit, train for the next 10 days and go all guns blazing at the Asian Games, Chirag said.

Beijing, Sep 6 (IANS) The Shanghai Cooperation Organisation (SCO) Summit held in Kyrgyzstan's Bishkek from August 31-September 1 has showcased China's delicate diplomatic choreography and its preference for ambiguity over confrontation. Chinese President Xi Jinping's decision to avoid meeting with Iranian counterpart Masoud Pezeshkian at the SCO Summit showcases how China is supporting Iran to preserve strategic ties but not so visibly to protect its interests in the Gulf and beyond, a report has detailed. No official statement released by China regarding the brief exchange between Xi Jinping and Masoud Pezeshkian suggests that Beijing is not ready to allow Iran's grievances to dominate the summit agenda and wants to keep the SCO's consensus broad and symbolic while avoiding making commitments that could affect its global balancing act, according to a report in European Times. China imports energy supplies from Iran at discounted prices and gets access to Middle East partners. However, by openly embracing Iran, China could get involved in further confrontation with the US, as the ties between the two nations have remained strained over trade, technology and Taiwan, according to the European Times report. China has also maintained economic ties with the UAE and Saudi Arabia, and a visible tilt towards Iran could impact these relationships. By holding a brief and undocumented conversation with Masoud Pezeshkian at the SCO Summit, Xi Jinping indicates support for Iran without linking China with Tehran's confrontational posture. Chinas economic footprint in the Gulf has expanded dramatically. The UAE is a hub for Chinese logistics and finance, while Saudi Arabia is a cornerstone of Beijings energy security. Both states view Iran with suspicion, and Beijing knows that overt alignment with Tehran could undermine its credibility as a neutral partner. Thus, Chinas silence in Bishkek was not indecisionit was strategy, Khedroob Thondup, the nephew of the 14th Dalai Lama, wrote in the European Times report. Recently, Xi Jinping visited Kyrgyzstan's Bishkek, where he attended the SCO Summit and held bilateral talks with Kyrgyzstan President Sadyr Zhaparov, Mongolian President Khurelsukh Ukhnaa, Russian President Vladimir Putin and Uzbekistan President Shavkat Mirziyoyev. Xi Jinping also attended the SCO Plus Meeting in Bishkek.
