'Salute On Behalf Of My Father…': Hafiz Saeed's Son Addresses 'Anti-India' Rally In Pakistan
Last Updated:
Top intelligence sources said the presence of Pakistani politicians alongside Talha Saeed shows the country's institutional support of terrorism
A video of UN-proscribed terrorist Talha Saeed – son of 26/11 Mumbai attacks mastermind Hafiz Saeed – has emerged in which he is purportedly inciting violence against India, during a public rally at Lahore in the presence of Pakistani politicians on stage.
The video clip from the rally, which was held on Wednesday (May 28), shows Talha Saeed welcoming the speaker of the Punjab assembly, Malik Ahmad Khan, on stage along with other politicians. Posters of Field Marshal Asim Munir can also be spotted, alongside those of Hafiz Saeed.
According to top intelligence sources, this shows Pakistan's institutional support of terrorism. Under the guise of appreciating 'Operation Bunyan al-Marsus', when Pakistan tested its nuclear weapons, all the extremists are back together on the same stage.
The intelligence sources told CNN-News18 that the presence of Talha shows that the extremists are celebrating the Pakistan Army under state sponsorship. He also named key Lashkar-e-Taiba operative Saifullah Khalid during the rally.

Complaint Filed Against Vijay Deverakonda For Derogatory Remarks Against Tribals
Mumbai: Tollywood heartthrob Vijay Deverakonda has landed in a legal soup after a complaint was filed against him under the Scheduled Castes and Scheduled Tribes (Prevention of Atrocities) Act by the Raidurgam police. VD allegedly made derogatory remarks against the tribal communities during a pre-release event of Suriya starrer "Retro" last month. Talking about the unfortunate Pahalgham attack, Vijay was heard saying during the event, 'The solution to what is happening in Kashmir is also to educate them (terrorists) and ensure they don't get brainwashed. What will they achieve? Kashmir belongs to India, and Kashmiris are ours. India doesn't even need to attack Pakistan because Pakistanis themselves are fed up with their government and will attack them if this continues. Asalu 500 years back tribals kokkutunnatu, veelu buddi lekunda, minimum common sense lekunda chese panulu.' (They behave like tribals did 500 years ago, fighting without common sense). These remarks were considered to be derogatory towards tribals by the tribal organizations. A section of the FIR read, "Film Actor Shri Vijay Deverakonda, who participated in the pre-release event of the movie 'Retro' starring Hero Surya, made comments that hurt the sentiments of the tribals and seriously insulted them. He insulted their tribal community by saying that they had beaten them 500 years ago without any intelligence and without minimum common sense. Moreover, he made comments comparing them to Pakistani terrorists. These comments, perceived as racially offensive, were broadcast across multiple media platforms. The statement went viral through the Sithara Entertainment YouTube Channel, which has 8.63 lakh subscribers and over 99,000 video views for the specific video [YouTube link: 'https/ si-8q-bRrdnr995bkjF' It further said "The remarks were viewed as a serious insult to the self-respect and dignity of the tribal community. Therefore, the complainant requested to take necessary action against Shri Vijay Devarakonda as per law." Vijay is yet to react to the complaint.

None should think they can speak as they like: CM Pinarayi Vijayan
THIRUVANANTHAPURAM: Apparently disapproving of CPM state secretary M V Govindan's bypoll-eve remarks related to CPM's association with the RSS at the time of Emergency, Chief Minister Pinarayi Vijayan issued a stern warning against loose talk in front of the mike. The strong words from the party's most senior politburo member came at a review meeting on Sunday, with CPM state committee and district secretariat members in attendance, ahead of the local body elections. The reprimand came at the end of his speech. 'No one should think they can say anything as they like in the next six months,' Pinarayi said while looking back at Govindan who was seated on the dais. However, speaking after the chief minister, Govindan never mentioned the criticism. Pinarayi also reminded the party leaders that CPM's stand against religious extremism has been accepted widely by the people. 'There is no need to cover up our open objection against parties like Jamaat-e-Islami, SDPI and the banned Popular Front of India. We have taken that stand withstanding much pressure. And it has been widely received, with acceptance from within the Muslim community. A section of the Muslim League has also objected to the UDF-Jamaat-e-Islami association. The CPM had openly declared that we don't want the extremist force's vote. Likewise, the Hindutva forces have also strengthened their activities. They have been carrying out their work around temples and believers. We should not view it as trivial,' he said. The chief minister also said that, in certain local bodies, there had been flaws on the part of officials and the ruling council. 'The LDF has a favourable situation politically. Hence, we should use it in favour of the LDF,' he added. Govindan, who presented the organisational report, pointed out that party workers have to visit houses and form committees at ward levels.
