In a fiery rebuttal, Delhi BJP chief Virender Sachdeva declared on Thursday that Arvind Kejriwal, the Aam Aadmi Party supremo and ex-Delhi CM, cannot escape the clutches of justice in the explosive Delhi excise policy scam. Sachdeva ripped into Kejriwal for his cryptic X post proclaiming ‘Satyamev Jayate’ after a Delhi court rejected two ED pleas concerning his failure to appear for interrogation. The post, Sachdeva argued, falsely implies complete vindication in the liquor graft case, when in reality, the court only invalidated the specific summons as procedurally flawed. Far from being cleared, Kejriwal is squarely in the dock as…

His family reports no communication since, leaving them in limbo without charges or custody details. In Kharan, post-attack crackdowns led to the seizure of Owais Ahmad Kambohani from Baloch Abad during a vehicle checkpoint. Three others…
Two years post the momentous pran pratishtha of Ayodhya’s Ram Mandir, Shiv Sena’s Sanjay Nirupam didn’t mince words on Thursday, calling out top leaders for their deliberate absence from the sacred site. This monumental achievement, born from prolonged court fights and public movements, fills the hearts of India’s Hindu majority with pride. But Nirupam lambasted those ‘religious’ figures dodging visits due to vote bank anxieties, terming it a sorry spectacle. ‘India cherishes secularism, respecting all religions equally,’ Nirupam affirmed. ‘But ignoring the majority’s devotion is not just wrong—it’s insulting.’ His comments highlight a growing rift in political posturing around faith-based…
