Borders may change from Kutch to Ladakh if Balochistan, Sindh and others rise against Pakistan: Indresh Kumar

Shimla (Himachal Pradesh) [India], June 16 (ANI): Rashtriya Swayamsevak Sangh (RSS) senior leader Indresh Kumar on Sunday suggested a potential shift in the India-Pakistan border.
Speaking in Shimla, Kumar hinted at a possible change in the boundary, extending 100-150 kilometres into Pakistan. Regions like Pakistan-occupied Kashmir (PoK), Sindh, Balochistan, and Gilgit-Baltistan could potentially merge with India or seek independence.
Addressing the media in Shimla after concluding a four-day visit to Kinnaur, Lahaul, and Spiti, Kumar said, 'One thing should be waited for. It is possible that the border of India-Pakistan changes and goes 100-150 Km deep into Pakistan, shifting from the Rann of Kutchh and Ladakh. There might be Pakistan on one side and PoK, including Sindh, Balochistan, Pakhtunistan and Gilgit-Baltistan, on the other side. They will all fight against Pakistan for independence and a merger with India...'
According to Kumar, these regions may merge with India or seek independence. PoK reportedly wants to join India, Balochistan seeks complete independence, and Sindh considers both options.
'If tomorrow Pakistan-occupied Kashmir (PoK), Gilgit, Balochistan, Sindh and others rise against Islamabad, the borders will shift. The war will not remain on the current border; it will move inside Pakistan,' he said.
Kumar claimed this vision aligns with the desires of the Indian government, public, and army, potentially leading to a significant geopolitical shift.
'Kumar claims this vision aligns with the desires of the Indian government, public, and army, potentially leading to a significant geopolitical shift,' said the senior RSS leader.
Kumar suggested that Pakistan, China, and the US fear India's potential to bring about such changes, which could reshape the regional landscape.
'Pakistan, China, and America fear that India might bring about such conditions one day... I have given you multiple hints at once. This is the desire of the government, the public, the Indian army and this area as well. The Punjabi Pakistan that will be left also rejects today's ruling system. PoK wants a merger with India, Balochistan wants complete independence, Pakhtunistan is not clear,... and Sindh is for independence as well as a merger with India...,' he said.
Kumar accused China of executing a long-term strategy to wipe out Buddhist and Himalayan ethnic identities.
'After occupying Tibet and Kailash Mansarovar, China is now targeting the Buddhist population in the Himalayan region. It has already begun crossbreeding campaigns in Tibet and might expand them into Indian Himalayan regions,' he said.
He warned that India has already demonstrated its resolve by targeting terrorist infrastructure in Pakistan and responding to Chinese provocations.
'India has destroyed terror training centres, airbases, and launchpads operated by Pakistan with Chinese support. This shows that India won't spare anyone who promotes terrorism. Message has been clearly given through Operation Sindoor,' Kumar said.
'China never imagined India would retaliate with such precision. But we did, and they are rattled,' he added.
He also raised concerns about minor incursions and symbolic acts by Chinese forces in the border areas of Himachal Pradesh.
'They sometimes enter with two or four people and write 'China Zindabad' on rocks to create claims. These actions are part of a larger design to assert presence,' he said.
On the issue of religious conversions, Kumar emphasised that conversion changes identity, causes social disruption, and must not be treated lightly.
'When someone converts to Islam or Christianity, their name, culture, and identity are altered. This leads to a break in the community fabric. Conversion can never be a universal law. It is degeneration of humanity, not progress,' Kumar added.
'Everyone should feel proud of their own religion. No one should impose one's prayer practices or devalue another's tradition,' he said.
Citing the Pahalgam attack, he condemned attempts to associate any religion with terrorism, but at the same time raised questions about those doing such an action.
'Terror has no religion. A terrorist is a devil, not a follower of any faith. Those who justify terrorism or perform funeral rites for terrorists must introspect,' he said.
On the caste-based census, he said the NDA supports it not for political benefit, but to uplift the backwards sections of society.
'Opposition parties demand a caste census to divide society and win votes. NDA supports it in bringing equal development beyond caste lines,' he said.
He also blamed historical Congress policies, especially under Jawaharlal Nehru, for India's territorial losses.
'Tibet, Kailash Mansarovar, and 36,000 sq km of Aksai Chin were lost because Nehru surrendered to China. He took the Kashmir issue to the UN and allowed PoK to exist,' he added.
Regarding Bangladesh and Rohingya migrants, he said that those who claim for Islamic Brotherhood have never dared to give asylum to people of Bangladesh.
'India has sheltered two crore Bangladeshis and lakhs of Rohingyas. Not a single Islamic country took them in. If the Muslim Brotherhood is real, why don't Turkey, Iran, or Afghanistan accept them?' he asked.
'Operation Sindoor and the targeting of terror bases showed that India is not weak. From Ladakh to Rann of Kutch, the dynamics of the border may change. The message is clear. India will not tolerate terrorism, be it from Pakistan or supported by China,' he added further.
Kumar also visited the tribal belts of Himachal Pradesh for four days to engage in dialogue on issues of national security, communal harmony, and border integrity. (ANI)

As Indians leave Israel, Odia student decides to stay back

1 2 Rourkela: In the midst of escalating tensions between Israel and Iran, compounded by the US' recent bombing of nuclear sites in Iran, an Odia student has taken the decision to stay back in Israel even as other Indians are returning home. Despite the Indian govt's efforts to evacuate its nationals from the conflict zone, Taranga Dehury, a 29-year-old post-doctoral researcher at the Hebrew University of Jerusalem, has opted to stay back, hoping the situation will stabilise soon. He cited a decrease in the frequency of missile strikes on Israel as a reason for his decision. "I have been hearing the sound of sirens for incoming missiles, drones and rockets. But they are not in our area," Dehury told TOI from Israel. A resident of Maranda village in Angul district, he has been conducting post-doctoral research at the university's Institute of Chemistry since March this year. The Indian Embassy in Israel initiated an evacuation operation on Sunday, but Dehury has chosen not to register for the process. "The places particularly affected, like Tel Aviv, Central and North Israel, are about 60km from my university campus. by Taboola by Taboola Sponsored Links Sponsored Links Promoted Links Promoted Links You May Like Write Better, Work Smarter With This Desktop App Grammarly Install Now Undo The frequency of missile strikes on these places has decreased over the last three days," said Dehury, who remains focused on his studies. "I am expecting the situation to improve soon. Although the operation to evacuate Indians was started by the Indian govt, I decided not to leave," he explained. "If it becomes necessary to leave for safety reasons, I will decide at that time." The recent escalation in the Israel-Iran conflict has significantly disrupted daily life in the region. The Hebrew University, along with other institutions, had temporarily closed doors before reopening last Thursday. But following the US bombing of Iranian nuclear sites on Sunday, Israel's Home Front Command issued new guidelines, restricting activities to essential services and suspending educational activities and gatherings. Like Dehury, Satyaranjan Biswal, another student from Odisha studying at the Hebrew University, has apparently decided to stay back in Israel. But despite repeated attempts, he could not be contacted.

Akhilesh: Storing poll data must, will oppose EC move

Lucknow: Stressing that it is important to store election data, Samajwadi Party national president Akhilesh Yadav on Sunday said that the decision of the Election Commission to destroy the video footage of the election process after 45 days could have been taken "under pressure from the BJP". "We will oppose the EC's decision. If the question is where to store the data, there are CCTV cameras installed in most houses and shops in the country. Data is stored even in homes and shops," Akhilesh said. "This govt claims that the biggest data centres in the country are being built in Uttar Pradesh . The state govt is announcing special packages for data centre owners. When such big data centres are being built, how can there be no space to store election data," he asked. "It is important that the election data is stored and remains safe. It appears that the Election Commission is taking such a decision under pressure from the BJP," Yadav said. In an apparent reference to Kundarki bypolls, he said that the CCTV footage showed policemen in civic dress coming out after voting. "They say privacy is being violated. This is not about privacy. This is a mafia act by the police to loot votes.

On Indians stranded abroad, the SP chief said, "Some people from Uttar Pradesh have gone on a tour. I spoke to them. They said 2,500-3,000 people are stranded, and India is not helping. Flights are returning empty, but there is no one to bring them back. Since June 19, none from this group could return. They demand that the govt and the opposition should look into their issue." "I appeal to the govt to arrange special flights and resort to special diplomatic methods to bring back Indian nationals stranded in other countries," Yadav said.

India debunks claims that US used Indian airspace to strike against Iran

India on Sunday dismissed as "fake" claims by certain social media handles that the US fighter jets used Indian airspace to launch strikes against Iran. The US bombed three nuclear sites in Iran overnight, with President Donald Trump warning of additional strikes if Iran retaliates. 'Several social media accounts have claimed that Indian Airspace was used by the United States to launch aircrafts against Iran during Operation #MidnightHammer. This claim is FAKE,' PIB Fact Check said in a post on X. 'Indian Airspace was NOT used by the United States during Operation #MidnightHammer,' said the fact check unit of the Press Information Bureau that functions under the Ministry of Information and Broadcasting. It said that the Joint Chiefs of Staff Chair Gen. Dan Caine had explained the route used by US aircraft during a press briefing.
