What I said was wrong. India didn’t agree to stopping import of oil from Russia anytime. Also it vigorously protested 50 percent tariff imposition. I was trying to make a limited counterpoint to d other panelist. But factually incorrect. My apologies.
"There are separate areas for upper and lower castes. We can't enter the temple." "Once, we had to wash our own plates and also pay for the food at a hotel in my village. Imagine how hellhole India is for Dalits. This is the reality of so-called progressive state.
Delhi: BJP MP Swati Maliwal says, "I have told you that I am leaving the Aam Aadmi Party because of Arvind Kejriwal’s corruption, hooliganism, and habit of lying. He has completely taken control of the party. For the past two years, I have tried. The incident with me happened two years ago, and even then I could have joined the Bharatiya Janata Party, but I did not. I thought I would stay in my party and try to improve it..."

"I have left AAP, joined BJP. I sacrificed everything for Kejriwal since 2006, left my job. I was brutally beaten by his goons at his house, they put pressure on me. AAP did not allow me to speak in Parliament." - BJP MP Swati Maliwal
#WATCH | Delhi: Rajya Sabha MP Raghav Chadha says, "Another important point is that today, Sheesh Mahal Part Two has come in Delhi. Some pictures of it have surfaced. If there was one major reason for the Aam Aadmi Party's loss in the Delhi elections, the Sheesh Mahal was one of the main reasons for the party's defeat. But today, not even a year has passed since the Delhi elections ended, and Sheesh Mahal Part Two has come. I wonder how the few remaining good workers of the Aam Aadmi Party will respond when people in the streets and localities ask them questions about Sheesh Mahal. The Aam Aadmi Party should introspect and think about it."
The new NITI Aayog team includes two Bengali stalwarts, senior economist Dr. Ashok Lahiri as Vice Chairperson and eminent scientist Dr. Gobardhan Das as Member. With this, Bengal once again finds two of its distinguished sons in the top echelons of Indian policymaking, marking another milestone in Bengal’s rich legacy of contributions to scholarship and nation-building. 1. At the helm of affairs Steering the nation towards Prime Minister Narendra Modi’s vision of Viksit Bharat will be NITI Aayog Vice Chairperson Dr. Ashok Lahiri. Among India’s most experienced economists, with a career spanning over four decades, Dr. Lahiri has served in several key roles across the policy spectrum, from Chief Economic Adviser to Member of the Finance Commission, and with global institutions such as the Asian Development Bank, World Bank, and the IMF. An alumnus of the Delhi School of Economics and Presidency University, Dr. Lahiri is a proud Kolkatan and a leading Bengali bhadralok luminary who has consistently championed Bengal’s development and progress. 2. A distinguished scientific mind NITI Aayog Member Dr. Gobardhan Das is a celebrated molecular science professor, specializing in immunology, infectious diseases, and cell biology, with a scientific career spanning nearly three decades. Dr. Das is internationally recognized for his research on the pathogenesis of tuberculosis. Having led cutting-edge research across leading global institutions, including Yale University and Houston Methodist Hospital in the United States, as well as the University of KwaZulu-Natal and the National Research Foundation in South Africa, he chose to return to serve the motherland. An alumnus of Visva-Bharati University, Dr. Das went on to become a professor at JNU and is currently serving as the Director of IISER Bhopal. His professional excellence and global achievements are made even more inspiring by his personal journey of overcoming immense adversity. Born to Hindu Dalit refugees from Bangladesh who fled persecution, Dr. Das grew up in extremely challenging conditions in Bengal. With his father a poor farmer, he often studied under street lamps. He also endured the tragic loss of 17 family members in riots in West Bengal. His unwavering commitment to nation-building, despite these hardships, stands today as a powerful source of inspiration for countless people across Bengal and the nation.
#WATCH | Kolkata, West Bengal: Prime Minister Narendra Modi says, "The name of Jadavpur University used to be respected all over the world. The foundation of this campus was built on nationalism. But today, look at the situation here... Threats are being issued inside the campus. Anti-national stuff is being scribbled on the walls. Students are forced to protest on the streets instead of studying. We don't want chaos here; we want an academic environment. We don't want threats here; we want dialogue. A government that cannot save its biggest educational institution, how will it save the future of Bengal's youth?..."
