The BJP MLA from Uttar Pradesh's Ballia, whose aide allegedly gunned down a man in presence of sub-divisional magistrate and circle officer, has come out in defence of the accused, claiming that he opened fire in self-defence. Congress leader Rahul Gandhi on Friday attacked the BJP-led NDA government over the International Monetary Fund’s projection of India’s gross domestic product. The Supreme Court on Friday dismissed a plea seeking imposition of President’s rule in Maharashtra.
