The Sudarshan S-400 air defence missile system demonstrated significant effectiveness in a recent Indian Air Force exercise, successfully 'shooting down' 80% of a simulated enemy fighter aircraft package while compelling the remainder to abort their missions. Conducted in a designated theatre with real aircraft, the exercise aimed to showcase the full integration of the S-400 system, now named after the legendary Sudarshan chakra of Lord Krishna. The Indian Air Force has fully integrated three squadrons of the system, with two additional squadrons expected by 2026, following an over ₹35,000 crore deal with Russia. The Indian Defence Acquisition Council has also approved the procurement of the Indian Long Range Surface Air Missile System under Project Kusha, enhancing the country's air defence capabilities amid increasing military deployments by China along the Line of Actual Control. sources

Court Protects Married Couples Seeking Live-In Relationships

The Punjab and Haryana High Court has ruled against providing protection to married individuals seeking live-in relationships, stating that such actions could encourage "wrongdoers" and promote bigamy. Justice Sandeep Moudgil highlighted that these relationships can tarnish family reputations and infringe upon the dignity and honor of parents. The decision arose from petitions by a couple, both of whom are already married, with the woman having divorced her husband. The court emphasized that recognizing their relationship as legitimate would unjustly affect the man's spouse and children. It reiterated the importance of marriage as a socially significant institution that carries moral and legal obligations, asserting that allowing such petitions undermines familial integrity and societal values. The court acknowledged the cultural shift towards modern lifestyles, including live-in arrangements, but maintained that traditional marriage remains a cornerstone of Indian society. sources

Understanding Documented Dreamers and Their Deportation Risks

Nearly 250,000 children of legal immigrants in the U.S., particularly among Indian-Americans, are facing deportation risks after turning 21 and "aging out" of their temporary dependent status. Known as "documented dreamers," these individuals entered the U.S. with their parents on temporary work visas but lose their eligibility for permanent residency if they do not secure it before reaching this age. Currently, over 1.2 million Indians are in various employment-based green card categories, awaiting approval. Unlike undocumented immigrants, documented dreamers are excluded from protections under the Deferred Action for Childhood Arrivals (DACA) program, which requires recipients to have no lawful status as of June 15, 2012. The Biden administration has faced criticism for not addressing this issue, with a bipartisan group of lawmakers urging immediate action to protect these individuals amid lengthy green card backlogs. sources

Mamata Banerjee Alleges Mic Muted; Centre Responds

West Bengal Chief Minister Mamata Banerjee has accused the Centre of "political discrimination" during a NITI Aayog meeting in Delhi, where she was the sole representative from a non-BJP state, following a boycott by other leaders from the INDIA bloc. After leaving the meeting in protest, Banerjee claimed her microphone was muted, limiting her speaking time to just five minutes, while others spoke for longer. She expressed frustration over the perceived inequity and insisted on addressing grievances related to Bengal's treatment in the Union Budget. However, the Centre refuted her claims, stating that her microphone was not muted and that the time limit was simply reached without any indication. The boycott was initiated by Tamil Nadu's Chief Minister MK Stalin and supported by leaders from Congress-ruled states and other opposition parties, citing unfair treatment in budget allocations. sources

UK Airport Incident: The West Must Reflect on Its Values

A recent video from Manchester Airport showing a young Asian boy being assaulted by police has sparked protests and reignited discussions on systemic racism within British law enforcement. Reports indicate that the violence was provoked after three Greater Manchester police officers were allegedly attacked, resulting in one officer sustaining a broken nose. While one officer has been suspended, the incident has drawn little national outrage, with critics highlighting a double standard in how such events are perceived depending on the nationality of the police involved. Akhmed Yakoob, the boy’s lawyer, condemned the actions as indicative of police brutality against BAME individuals. This incident echoes broader concerns about racism and discrimination in UK institutions, including the Metropolitan Police, which has been criticized for institutional racism in a recent review. Activists argue that despite some legislative progress, a fundamental change in mindset is essential to address these entrenched issues. sources
