Donald Trump Makes U-Turn on Ceasefire Claim, Says India and Pakistan Decided to Avoid War
In a striking reversal, US President Donald Trump has publicly credited Indian PM Narendra Modi and Pakistan Army Chief General Asim Munir for stepping back from the brink of war during the recent India-Pakistan military escalation. This comes days after Trump hosted Munir for a private lunch at the White House, where he praised both leaders as 'very smart people' for choosing peace over a potential nuclear confrontation. This diplomatic shift follows a 35-minute call between Trump and Modi, where the Indian PM firmly clarified that the ceasefire after Operation Sindoor was achieved via military channels — without any third-party mediation. Foreign Secretary Vikram Misri reiterated India's long-standing policy of rejecting external involvement in Indo-Pak issues.#pm#modi #trump #asimmunir #operationsindoor #indiapakistan #ceasefire #nuclearwar #g7summit #pmmodi #uspakistan #toi #toibharat #bharat #breakingnews #indianews

Los Angeles Dodgers spark outrage after blocking Donald Trump-backed ICE agents from stadium access (Image via Getty) On June 19, a daring action thrust the Los Angeles Dodgers into the national limelight as they barred federal ICE agents, associated with a Trump endorsed immigration enforcement effort, from Dodger Stadium. The impromptu showdown elicited a wave of responses online and among activists in the streets of Los Angeles. What happened in front of the stadium and why are some fans cheering the action? Los Angeles Dodgers refuse entry to ICE agents at Dodger Stadium on June 19 On June 19, 2025, early morning, a fleet of unmarked vans carrying ICE agents linked to Donald Trump 's administration pulled up near Dodger Stadium. The agents sought permission to access the parking lots but were told 'no' by the Dodgers organization. Within minutes, dozens of protestors who oppose immigration raids gathered outside the gates in response. While ICE later denied being there, the Department of Homeland Security (DHS) clarified the vehicles belonged to Customs and Border Protection (CBP) and were not on enforcement duty. The Dodgers president Stan Kasten confirmed the team's stance on X (formerly Twitter), stating the request was official and the team denied access. by Taboola by Taboola Sponsored Links Sponsored Links Promoted Links Promoted Links You May Like Seniors Born 1941-1979 Receive 55 Benefits This Month if They Ask WalletJump Learn More Undo Los Angeles police then facilitated a safe departure for agents amid the crowd presence.

Left stages protest in Ballari condemning attacks on Palestine and Iran
On the occasion of National Communal Harmony Day, various Left parties staged a protest in front of the Deputy Commissioner's office in Ballari, condemning the 'imperialist aggression' against Palestine and Iran. The demonstration strongly denounced the alleged massacre being carried out by Israel in Gaza with the support of the United States, as well as the recent bombing of Iran. Protesters urged the Indian government to oppose the war-mongering policies of the United States and Israel and to adopt an unequivocal anti-war stance. Addressing the gathering, district secretary of SUCI(C) S. Radhakrishna Upadhya said that creating conflict zones across the globe to sell arms and increase profits is the business model of American capitalists. 'U.S. President Donald Trump represents these capitalist interests. Facing an economic crisis, the United States seeks revival through artificial means like war. To counter this war-hungry agenda of America, Israel and other imperialist nations, global anti-war and workers movements must be intensified to push back against imperialist designs,' he said. CPI(M) district secretary Satyababu stated that Israel, emboldened by U.S. support, has been conducting barbaric bombing campaigns on Gaza for the past two years, violating ceasefire agreements. 'Schools, hospitals, and mosques have been targeted and over 55,000 Palestinian civilians, including a large number of women and children, have been killed. Now, it has launched airstrikes on Iran, killing several 'key figures',' he said. Veteran trade union leader T.G. Vitthal remarked that the BJP-led Union government aligned itself with the interests of the U.S. and Israel, thereby undermining India's anti-imperialist legacy rooted in the freedom movement. Many labour leaders, including Pramod, A. Devadas, Chandra Kumari, Guru Murthy, Somashekhar Gowda, Shanta, Nagarathna and Hanumappa, participated in the agitation.

Delhi Court Allows Extradition Of Man For Trial In Rape Case In Scotland
New Delhi: A Delhi Court has allowed the extradition of a fugitive to stand trial in Scotland for sexual assault, rape and communicating indecently. Additional Chief Judicial Magistrate Pranav Joshi was hearing the matter over the Centre's December 2024 order appointing and requesting the court to inquire into the extradition request by determining whether a prima facie case was made out against the fugitive criminal (FC) Naijil Paul. In an order dated June 9, the court said, "Union of India is requested to extradite the FC Naijil Paul to the Government of the United Kingdom of Great Britain and Northern Ireland for standing trial of the indictment charges against the FC before the High Court of Judiciary at Glasgow, Scotland through diplomatic channel." Till formalities of extradition were complete, Paul would remain in Tihar prison, it added. To avoid criminal prosecution in the UK, Paul fled to India but was arrested from Kochi in Kerala and brought to the national capital. According to the Centre's order, the United Kingdom government submitted a request for Paul's extradition, who was "wanted to stand trial in connection with the offences allegedly committed in Scotland" for sexual assault, communicating indecently among other offences. "Similar conduct under Indian laws amount to offence under Section 63 (rape), Section 74 (sexual assault), Section 75 (sexual harassment), Section 79 (word, gesture to act to outrage the modesty of a woman) of the Bhartiya Nyaya Sanhita which are punishable with more than one year imprisonment," it said.
