A heated controversy erupted when Pintu Mahadev, a BJP spokesperson, allegedly threatened that “Rahul Gandhi will be shot in the chest” during a televised debate. In response, Congress demanded urgent intervention from Home Minister Amit Shah, labeling the threat “cold, calculated and chilling” and warning that inaction would amount to normalizing violence against political opponents. Karnataka CM Siddaramaiah also expressed shock and questioned the silence of top leadership over the remark. #DeathThreat #PoliticalViolence #RahulGandhi #Congress #BJP #HomeMinistry #FreeSpeech #SafetyOfLeaders #Democracy #Accountability
Dominion Voting Systems has reached a confidential settlement with Rudy Giuliani, resolving a $1.3 billion defamation lawsuit filed in January 2021. The lawsuit stemmed from Giuliani's repeated false claims that Dominion's voting machines rigged the 2020 U.S. presidential election in favor of Joe Biden. These allegations, widely disseminated through media appearances and legislative hearings, severely damaged Dominion's reputation and led to threats against election officials. The terms of the settlement remain undisclosed, and both parties have agreed to permanently dismiss the case. This settlement is part of a series of legal actions taken by Dominion against individuals and media outlets who propagated baseless election fraud claims. Notably, Fox News settled for $787.5 million in 2023, and Newsmax agreed to pay $67 million earlier this year. Giuliani's legal troubles have escalated, including being disbarred in New York and Washington, D.C., and facing a $148 million defamation judgment involving Georgia election workers. He has also been ordered to pay $1.36 million in legal fees. #RudyGiuliani #DefamationLawsuit #ElectionIntegrity #LegalSettlement #MediaAccountability #ElectionMisinformation #JusticeSystem #Accountability #ElectionFraudClaims
In Leh, the Leh Apex Body (LAB)—one of the principal local organizations in Ladakh—acknowledged that during the recent protest for statehood or greater autonomy, “some youngsters went out of control.” At the same time, LAB strongly alleged that police fired on protesters without warning, causing casualties and injuries. They rejected claims of external instigation or foreign hand in the unrest, and have demanded a judicial inquiry into the circumstances of the firing. According to LAB, many of the injured bore bullet and pellet wounds in the upper body region, suggesting the firing was indiscriminate and without adequate crowd control measures such as warnings or less-lethal response first. LAB leaders also emphasized that while some protest actions may have escalated, the use of lethal force cannot be justified without accountability. On the government and security side, the Ladakh Police Chief has defended the firing, saying that the police used “self-defence” given the scale of unrest and threat posed, arguing that the situation endangered the entire Leh area. He contended that police had no choice given the violence, stone-pelting, arson, and threat to personnel and property. #LadakhViolence #LehProtests #LABStatement #PoliceFiring #JudicialInquiry #StatehoodDemand #SixthSchedule #CivilRights #SelfDefenceClaim #Accountability
