VIDEO | Hyderabad: On PM Modi’s appeal to purchase less gold, AIMIM chief Asaduddin Owaisi (@asadowaisi) says, “The government wants the state to keep gold reserves and use dollars for trade. In 1991, India had moved 47 tonnes of gold to London because of a balance of payments crisis. Now, in 2026, the same India is airlifting gold back from London. When we have foreign exchange reserves of USD 691 billion and are such a strong bullion-holding country, why are we facing difficulties? After these developments, the Prime Minister’s statement is quite shocking. The BJP government is hiding the real condition of the country and the economy. India transferred 104 tonnes of gold from the Bank of England and the Bank for International Settlements during the second half of 2025. These are the realities. Now the people of the country are being asked to face hardship, but the Prime Minister is linking it with patriotism. How can this be justified? During the elections, the government spoke very confidently and even reduced excise duty, but now the burden is going to fall on the people.” (Full video available on PTI Videos - ptivideos.com)

VIDEO | Hyderabad: On PM Modi’s speech in Hyderabad, AIMIM chief Asaduddin Owaisi says, “In what has now become known as the famous Hyderabad speech, the Prime Minister made several significant remarks. Just six days after elections in various states, he revealed all these things. The question is: was the Prime Minister asking for votes during the elections without telling people that after the polls, petrol, diesel and aviation fuel prices would rise? And now he is presenting this as patriotism, saying that a true patriot is someone who tolerates all these hardships.” He added, “Another issue is the ‘gold paradox.’ In March 2026, 77 per cent of the RBI’s total gold reserves were held domestically, whereas in 2023 it was only 38 per cent. So if buying gold is supposedly dangerous, as suggested in the Prime Minister’s Hyderabad speech, then why is the RBI itself buying so much gold? People buy gold for their daughters and families, while the RBI is continuously increasing its gold reserves. Nobody can deny that. In fact, the RBI is doing the exact opposite of what the Prime Minister advised. The question is: what exactly is this ‘safe answer plan’?” (Full video available on PTI Videos - ptivideos.com)

VIDEO | Hyderabad: On the cancellation of the NEET exam, AIMIM MP Asaduddin Owaisi says, “What happened to the law passed in Parliament under which you said strict action would be taken against those involved in paper leaks? Then how did the paper leak happen? And where is the Prime Minister’s ‘Mann Ki Baat’ now? He had told students not to take tension. What answer will he give them now? In ‘Mann Ki Baat,’ he told children not to worry. But what about those students who have been preparing for the last two years, whose parents spent lakhs of rupees on coaching centres? What must they be going through? Those poor students who dream of qualifying NEET. The BJP and the Prime Minister will have to answer.” (Full video available on PTI Videos - ptivideos.com) #Hyderabad

#ImportantNews: Within days of 7 AAP Rajya Sabha MPs from Punjab shifting allegiance to the BJP, at least 3 politically sensitive matters connected to some of them came up before the Punjab and Haryana High Court, specifically, Chief Justice Sheel Nagu. I’ve found that in two of these three cases, the High Court’s own listing process did not follow the ordinary roster. For instance: 1. In Sandeep Pathak’s case: The case concerned Pathak who approached the High Court apprehending coercive action by the Punjab government. During the hearing, the State said no coercive action would be taken without intimating the Court, but the written order records it as no coercive action without “prior permission” of the Court. The issue of maintainability was also not decided. Interestingly, the High Court’s own March 2026 notified roster shows that the MP/MLA criminal matters are before Justice Tribhuvan Dahiya’s bench. However, this matter was listed before Chief Justice Nagu through a special administrative order. And a sweeping relief was granted. 2. In Rajinder Gupta’s case: Gupta’s petition seeking security cover was somehow specifically listed before Chief Justice Nagu, even though similar matters were pending before Justice Jagmohan Bansal’s bench who also holds the roster. The Main case is CWP 12075-2026. The High Court's order itself notes that the Ministry of Home Affairs had already provided security cover to Gupta in Punjab and Delhi yet the case was listed before a different bench for reasons unknown. 3. In the Trident case: The third case is CWP-13613-2026, Trident Limited vs State of Punjab and Anr. This matter concerned a raid conducted on 30 April 2026 by officers of the Punjab Pollution Control Board. Trident, whose Chairman Emeritus is Rajinder Gupta, sought protection from coercive steps and also sought a direction that the seized samples be sent to a Central Testing Laboratory outside Punjab. Although the roster originally remains with the Chief Justice's bench, the bench went out of the way to grant a relief by observing in the order that Trident’s apprehension that the raid stemmed from political vendetta appeared “reasonably palpable”. The Court ultimately directed that the Pollution Control Board could take coercive steps only after giving Trident 30 days to rectify minor deficiencies, even though the Water Rules only allow a 15-day notice period! And this, after the bench itself took note of the Pollution Control Board’s objection that Trident had an alternative remedy before the National Green Tribunal. The bench also referred to Rule 32(6) of the Punjab Water Rules, under which prior hearing can be dispensed with where grave environmental injury is likely! The Larger Issue Take these three cases together. Three matters connected to AAP-to-BJP defectors reached the Chief Justice within a short span. At least two belonged before other roster benches. The matters were specially listed before Chief Justice Nagu by a Special Administrative Order. And in all three cases, the Court granted some form of protective relief, even sweeping in Pathak’s case which a opposition leader can only dream of getting. The concern is not simply about the outcome of these cases. It is about the route by which they reached the Chief Justice, and the absence of a TRANSPARENT explanation for why these cases were so special that ordinary roster allocation did not apply! The Chief Justice is the master of the roster, sure. But precisely because that power determines which judge hears which case, it carries a duty of VISIBLE neutrality. In politically sensitive matters, especially those involving recent defections from one party to another, even the appearance of selective listing can raise serious institutional questions. The Pathak-Kejriwal Comparison This is the most important part. Just compare Sandeep Pathak’s case before a High Court of a non-BJP state with Arvind Kejriwal’s case before the High Court of a BJP state, and you will see how different yardsticks apply in each. In Pathak’s case, the designated roster judge for MP/MLA criminal matters very much existed. Yet, Chief Justice Nagu issued a special administrative order to list the matter before himself and then granted Pathak sweeping protection by converting prior intimation into a mandatory judicial pre-clearance before any action could be taken. But in Kejriwal’s case before the Delhi High Court, the opposite happens. Despite serious and well-documented concerns of conflict of interest, bias, and unusual judicial attachment to the CBI appeal matter, the Chief Justice remains silent. The case is not withdrawn from that judge. It is not placed before a fresh bench. The larger context too is hard to ignore. The Supreme Court’s INACTION and DELAY in the AAP vs LG constitutional crisis in Delhi and MVA government toppling in Maharashtra, and its ACTIVE intervention in Bengal’s SIR case, have produced political consequences that have greatly benefited the political fortunes of the same side. Recently, CJI Surya Kant raised the sensitive issue of Punjab’s drug menace, observing that the “big fish” are not being caught by the State government. Punjab goes to polls in a matter of months. So can the timing be treated as accidental? Each of these instances, viewed separately, may be explained away with a shrug. But look at them together, and a deeply disturbing pattern emerges. It is this pattern---of SELECTIVE urgency, SELECTIVE silence, SELECTIVE roster control, and SELECTIVE intervention that corrodes public faith in the judiciary’s neutrality. Unfortunately, soon, citizens will begin to notice the growing weaponisation of the judiciary.

#WATCH | मुंबई: महाराष्ट्र के मंत्री नितेश राणे ने कहा, "AIMIM एक आतंकवादी संगठन है। ओसामा बिन लादेन और असदुद्दीन ओवैसी में कुछ फर्क नहीं है। जो काम ओसामा बिन लादेन अल-कायदा के माध्यम से करता था, वही अब असदुद्दीन ओवैसी AIMIM के माध्यम से कर रहा है...उनका ऐसा कौन सा बड़ा काम है, जो उन्होंने चुनकर आने के बाद किया है?...उनके घोषणा पत्र में एक ही चीज लिखी है कि हम जिहाद करेंगे...जैसे हमने PFI को बैन किया है, उसी तरह AIMIM को भी बैन कर देना चाहिए..."
