Assam Police have arrested eight individuals, including Md Aminul Islam, an MLA from the All India United Democratic Front (AIUDF), following comments perceived as supportive of Pakistan after a recent terror attack in Pahalgam, Jammu and Kashmir. Chief Minister Himanta Biswa Sarma announced the arrests, stating that Assam will not tolerate any support for Pakistan in the wake of such attacks. The crackdown, which included six arrests on Friday and two on Thursday, targeted individuals who made social media posts deemed inflammatory. Islam's remarks suggested that recent attacks were government conspiracies, prompting police action under multiple charges. AIUDF chief Badruddin Ajmal has distanced the party from Islam’s statements, emphasizing a united front against terrorism and affirming that such acts defame Islam. Islam has been remanded to police custody for four days following his court appearance.

Speaking to reporters, Goyal emphasized that such violence will not diminish India's resilience and asserted that the nation’s growing global prominence is unsettling certain forces. He expressed confidence that the conviction of the Indian people would lead to a revival of tourism in Kashmir and ensure the continuation of the Amarnath Yatra. Goyal also addressed concerns regarding Pakistani nationals overstaying their visas, asserting that they must leave India. He affirmed that the government is committed to eradicating terrorism, likening it to ongoing efforts against naxalism, and declared that Kashmir's progress will not be hindered by such attacks. In response to the tragedy, India has initiated diplomatic measures, including the suspension of the Indus Water Treaty with Pakistan.
Published: Apr 26 2025, 8 pmeznews.inNEW DELHI: Following the deadly Pahalgam terror attacks that claimed 26 lives, RSS chief Mohan Bhagwat emphasized the duality of India's values, highlighting that while non-violence is a core tenet, there is also a necessity to confront "oppressors and hooligans." Speaking at the launch of 'The Hindu Manifesto' in New Delhi, Bhagwat referenced the mythological figure Ravan, asserting that his defeat was for his own benefit rather than malice. He reiterated that while non-violence is integral to Indian ethos, there are circumstances where action is required, citing the Bhagavad Gita's lesson that Arjun was compelled to fight against those whose development could only be achieved through confrontation. Bhagwat concluded that while non-violence aims to inspire change in others, some individuals may resist transformation and perpetuate disorder, necessitating a response to protect society.
Published: Apr 26 2025, 8 pmeznews.inThe Ministry of Information and Broadcasting in India has issued an advisory urging media outlets to avoid live coverage of military operations and security force movements, citing national security concerns. The directive applies to news agencies, digital platforms, and social media users, stressing the importance of responsible reporting. The Ministry highlighted that real-time dissemination of sensitive information could compromise missions and endanger personnel, referencing past incidents like the Kargil conflict and the 26/11 Mumbai attacks as examples of the risks posed by unrestricted media coverage. It reiterated the legal obligations under Rule 6(1)(p) of the Cable Television Networks (Amendment) Rules, 2021, which limits live reporting of anti-terrorist operations to designated government briefings. The advisory warns that violations could lead to strict legal repercussions, reinforcing the media's role in safeguarding national security.
Published: Apr 26 2025, 6 pmeznews.inThe 22 April 2025 terrorist attack in Pahalgam, attributed to Pakistan-sponsored groups, represents a troubling escalation in violence aimed at undermining India's stability in Kashmir. This brutal assault, which specifically targeted Hindu male tourists, is seen as an attempt to reignite separatist sentiments and disrupt the socio-economic progress fostered by the Indian government. The incident coincides with a period of heightened diplomatic engagement and tourism in the region, suggesting a strategic recalibration by Pakistan's intelligence services. In response, India’s Cabinet Committee on Security has suspended the Indus Waters Treaty, a significant diplomatic measure aimed at asserting control over water resources while maintaining a mature stance rather than immediate military retaliation. Enhanced vigilance and proactive counter-terrorism operations are essential to prevent further incursions, alongside efforts to reshape the international narrative around Pakistan's support for terrorism. The focus remains on fostering stability and unity within Kashmir's diverse communities.
Published: Apr 26 2025, 6 pmeznews.inUnion Minister Hardeep Singh Puri sharply criticized Pakistan Peoples Party (PPP) chief Bilawal Bhutto-Zardari's inflammatory remarks regarding India's suspension of the Indus Waters Treaty (IWT) following the recent Pahalgam terror attack. At a rally in Sukkur, Bhutto-Zardari claimed, "The Indus is ours and will remain ours," prompting Puri to dismiss his comments and assert that Pakistan, which he labeled a "rogue state," would face consequences for its actions. The April 22 attack, which killed 26 people, is believed to involve the Pakistan-based terror group Lashkar-e-Taiba. In retaliation for India's treaty suspension, Pakistan halted the Simla Agreement and trade activities, warning that any diversion of water would be seen as an "act of war." Pakistan Prime Minister Shehbaz Sharif expressed willingness for a neutral investigation into the attack, urging an end to the ongoing blame game between the two nations.
Published: Apr 26 2025, 4 pmeznews.inRajasthan's Shaitan Singh, who got engaged to Kesar Kanwar from Pakistan's Sindh province four years ago, faces a setback as his wedding plans are disrupted by the sudden closure of the Attari border. Singh and his family, prepared to travel to Amarkot city for the ceremony on April 30, were denied passage after India ordered the border's shutdown in response to a recent terror attack in Pahalgam, Jammu and Kashmir, which claimed 26 lives. Despite having secured visas just months ago, Singh expressed disappointment, noting the emotional toll on both families involved. The wedding, arranged through traditional ties within the Sodha Rajput community, highlights cross-border familial connections. With Singh’s visa valid until May 12, there remains a faint hope that the border might reopen in time for the marriage, as tensions between India and Pakistan escalate following the attack and subsequent diplomatic downgrades.
Published: Apr 26 2025, 3 pmeznews.inSeema Haider, who gained attention in 2023 for crossing into India from Pakistan to marry her Indian partner, Sachin Meena, is now facing potential deportation following the Indian government's suspension of visa services for Pakistani nationals in response to a recent terror attack in Pahalgam. Haider, who entered India illegally with her four children, has publicly appealed to Prime Minister Narendra Modi and Uttar Pradesh Chief Minister Yogi Adityanath to allow her to remain in India, stating, "I was Pakistan's daughter, but now I'm India's daughter-in-law." Her lawyer argues that she should be exempt from the visa suspension, claiming her citizenship is now tied to her Indian husband, with whom she has a daughter, Bharti Meena. The Indian government has instructed all Pakistani nationals in the country to leave before their visas expire, heightening Haider's fears of deportation.
Published: Apr 26 2025, 1 pmeznews.inA recent review by seismologists at Los Alamos National Laboratory indicates that some earthquakes may be misidentified as clandestine underground nuclear tests. Led by Joshua Carmichael and published in the *Bulletin of the Seismological Society of America*, the study highlights the difficulty in distinguishing between natural seismic events and nuclear explosions due to their similar seismic signals. Advanced detection techniques, which analyze the ratio of compressional (P) waves to shear (S) waves, have improved differentiation, yet the study reveals that overlapping waveforms can significantly hinder detection. For instance, a buried explosion's detection rate drops from 97% to 37% when masked by an earthquake occurring nearby. The findings raise concerns about underestimating low-magnitude seismicity, particularly in regions with active seismicity like North Korea, where increased seismic activity near test sites has been observed. Overall, the research suggests a need for reevaluation of how seismic data is interpreted in the context of nuclear test monitoring.
Published: Apr 26 2025, 12 pmeznews.inAdil Ahmed Thoker, a key figure in the April 22 Pahalgam massacre that resulted in 26 deaths, is believed to have returned to India after spending six years in Pakistan. Originally from Gurre village in Anantnag, Thoker left India in 2018 on a student visa, reportedly showing signs of radicalization prior to his departure. During his time in Pakistan, he underwent training with the terrorist group Lashkar-e-Taiba (LeT). Thoker re-entered India in October 2024, crossing the Line of Control with a group that included Pakistani national Hashim Musa, another suspect in the attack. On the day of the massacre, Thoker and his accomplices targeted tourists in Baisaran, asking victims about their religion before opening fire. Thoker has since been named one of the principal suspects, with authorities offering a reward for information leading to his capture. Security forces are actively searching for him and his associates.
