05:52My colleague Shivani Sharma is now joining us with more details on this.
05:56Shivani, the issue of Pehelgam terror attack was discussed in the BRICS summit with the BRICS nation strongly condemning the terror attack.
06:05In fact, Prime Minister Modi also sending out a strong message that those who are funding terrorism must be dealt in the harshest terms.
06:12See, Anjali, this was a unison joint statement and the BRICS members, they have condemned the Pehelgam attack.

06:26And the Prime Minister has made it very clear that India will continue for its approach of zero tolerance against terrorism.

07:11All these countries, they have shown solidarity with India.
07:14They've condemned the terror attacks in Pehelgam.
07:17And India has once again kept its stand very clear that it will keep the zero tolerance against terror approach continue.
07:25And it will fight against terror.
07:27All the nations should take this issue seriously.
07:31All right, Shivani, thank you for getting us those details.
07:35And for that context, with that, we're now shifting focus.
07:37We are getting some breaking news.
07:46Pakistan terror comes back to haunt it.
07:49Now, terrorists openly threaten Pakistan.
07:52Mullah Military Alliance goes after its own Hafiz Saeed's son, Blackpail's Bilawal Bhutto.
07:58Bilawal had offered terror extradition to India.
08:01And now he's been openly threatened by the jihadi groups in Pakistan.
08:062611 plotter's son terror blackpail to Bilawal Bhutto.
08:11Now, remember, Bilawal Bhutto had asserted that his country had no objection to extradite terrorists like Hafiz Saeed and Masuda Sir to India as a confidence-building measure.
08:20But after that, a row has erupted in Pakistan with Pakistan terror groups now openly threatening its own leaders.
08:29Mullah Military Alliance goes after its own Hafiz Saeed's son has blackmailed Bilawal Bhutto.
08:35And this comes after Bilawal Bhutto offered terrorist extradition to India.
08:40Now, he is being openly threatened by the jihadi groups.
08:43Now, remember, the political party PMML also condemned the remark that was made by Bilawal Bhutto, who was the former foreign minister of Pakistan.
08:51And now, in the latest, he is also receiving threats from the jihadi groups in Pakistan.
08:58Now, Hafiz Saeed's son has openly threatened Bilawal Bhutto for his statement.
09:03Hafiz Saeed's son has been handed by the jihadi group.
09:33we do this harm and we will fight and we will fight against it.
09:43My colleague, Erwin Dujar is now joining us with more details.
09:48Erwin Bilal Bhutto's extradition report has been opened with many
09:56Haafiz Sajid's sonate's sonate's father, he also has a confidence and a sense of self-examination of his team.
10:08Yes, this is true.
10:10This video was in 30 seconds in this recording in this video.
10:16This video has not just been forced, but just opened challenge.
10:19I am going to tell you that Hafiz Sajid is a US designated terrorist, not only Hafiz Sajid, but also his daughter Tallahah Sajid.
10:26And this is the way that he is confident and confident, he is going to be established in Pakistan.
10:39Now the time of the day, the situation of the U.S. was made of the situation in India, that if that's India is concerned, that Hafiz Sajid, Ms. Ajahar, would have been deporting.
11:01उसके बाद लश्करे तोईबा जो आतंकी संगठन है उसमें काफी ज्यादा गुसा है और अब उसका बेटा सीधे सीधे नसरोप अपने पिता जो आतंकी हाफिसईद है उसको इसके बचाव में दलीले दे रहा है बलकि वो यह साब साब कहे रहा है कि बिलावल भुटो के इस
11:31or if the people who are not able to live in the country because Pakistan army has made the military alliance in the country and the people who are not able to live in India.
11:49So this is not possible. But Bilawal Bhutto is facing a lot of backlash and in fact open threats from his own country after he made the extradition offer to India.
12:14Now, weeks after India's Operation Sindhu, Pakistan's former Foreign Minister Bilawal Bhutto Zardari said that Islamabad would be open to extraditing individuals of concern like Masood Azhar and Hafiz Saeed.
12:26More on this in our next report.
12:35Pakistan battered by India. Terror hubs and key military installations destroyed.
12:41The terrorist state unable to face India's Pehlgaam attack payback. It begged for a ceasefire and here is more proof that Pakistan is facing multiple thrashing from India.
12:55Pakistan's former Foreign Minister Bilawal Bhutto Zardari revealed that Islamabad is open to extraditing terror masterminds like Masood Azhar and Hafiz Saeed who topped India's most wanted list.
13:08The fact is generation after generation, India and Pakistan have been trapped in conflict historically over Kashmir, more recently over terrorism.
13:19The cases that we're having difficulty in prosecuting these individuals are the ones that are of interest to India and there's a reason for that.
13:26It's because India is refusing to comply with certain basic elements that require those convictions to take place.
13:33If India is willing to be cooperative in that process, I'm sure there will be no hurdle in extraditing any individual of concern.
13:40I'm sure there will be no trouble in this situation.
13:42After this, terrorists Hafiz Saeed's son, Talha Saeed, lashed out at Bhutto for bowing down to India.
13:50Even Imran Khan's party PTI rained fire on Bhutto and called him an immature political child.
14:08Bilawal Bhutto's remarks come just days after Defence Minister Rajnaath Singh issued a stern warning.
14:27But can Pakistan be trusted?
14:55Or is it just a ploy to lower pressure, especially as India has launched multi-front strikes at Pakistan?
15:02Pakistan is facing water scarcity after India's suspended Indus Water Treaty.
15:08Trade with India has also been stopped by the Modi government.
15:12And terror funding watchdog FATF has put Pakistan under scrutiny over terror financing.
15:19Pakistan is facing the heat and Bhutto's statement is the proof.
15:25But can Pakistan government really crush its terror nursery?
15:29Lashkar-supported political party PMML has opposed Bilawal Bhutto Zardari's recent statement on handing over person of concerns to India.
15:40PMML is led by Hafiz Saeed's son, Talha.
15:44Pakistan has maintained that Hafiz Saeed is in government's custody and Masood Azhar may have fled Pakistan.
15:54Can the terrorist state be trusted to deliver India's top enemies, Masood Azhar, Hafiz Saeed, Daoud Ibrahim, Chhota Shaqeel and Tiger Memon?
16:03Or is it just a ploy to hoodwink like always?

19:50And my colleague Rohit Singh is now joining us with more details on this.
19:56Rohit, help us understand what exactly happened, how exactly this unfolded,
20:00the stone pelting by the violent mob who was a part of the Muharrab march.
20:07Well, see, it was the Tazia Jaloos which was being taken out by the Muslim community in Katihar.
20:14And late in the evening at around 4.30, 5 o'clock, when the entire procession,
20:19Tazia Jaloos was passing from an area where there was a Mahavir Mandir.
20:25That is when the situation went out of hand because what it is being alleged that the people from the Muslim community,
20:31they pelted a stone at the temple and which infuriated the other side.
20:36And that is why then from the other side also some stone pelting took place.
20:41So there was a clash that broke out between the two communities.
20:45And later on, there were several vehicles in that area that were also vandalized.
20:49And the situation went completely out of hand.
20:52And later, the police had to reach the spot.
20:55The administration has to reach the spot to contain the situation and to control it.
21:00And it was late at night by which the situation was brought under control.
21:06But massive tension prevailed the entire evening yesterday in Katihar during the Muharram procession that was taken out by the Muslim community.
21:16And now the administration, the police are trying to identify the antisocial elements who were part of that procession,
21:24which pelted stone at the Mahavir temple and which infuriated the other side.
21:29And trying to find them, locate them and also arrest them right now.
21:34But the situation now has been brought under control.
21:37And the peace is back in Katihar at this point of time.
21:41But yesterday, it seemed that the entire area had turned into a battlefield literally.
21:47Right. Also, Rohit, how many people are said to have been injured during this chaos and the outbreak that happened in Katihar between two communities?
21:56And also, what action has been taken by the police so far to restore the law and order situation?
22:03Well, see, the priority of the local administration initially was to bring the situation under control.
22:10So, therefore, heavy police deployment was put in place immediately after the incident took place.
22:15And later on, several police personnel were also called from the adjoining districts like Purnia, Kristanganj, and Arya.
22:23And then by night, there was a heavy police deployment that took place after which the situation was brought under control.
22:29What we are learning is that about a dozen people from both sides have been injured in this entire case.
22:36But now, the police priority, the administration's priority is to identify the anti-social elements who were part of that procession and to nab them.
22:46And based on the CCTV footages that have been placed in that area because of the Muharram Jaloos, the police is working to identify them and also nab them.
22:56But right at present, the situation has now been brought under control in Katihar.
23:01Rohit, also, was there not adequate security and police deployment at that moment, knowing that it was Muharram Day?
23:10Well, see, there was a police deployment, but the number of people who were part of the procession outnumbered the police presence on the ground.
23:19And that is why the situation went out of hand.
23:22And as I told you, since the people who were present as part of the procession outnumbered the police personnel,
23:28that is why for almost about an hour or two, they went on a complete rampage.
23:34They pelt a stone at the Mahavi temple, pelt a stone at the people,
23:37after which vehicles were also vandalized.
23:42Several vehicles were completely damaged.
23:44And late at night, the people from the other community, they also, as a mark of protest,
23:49they were burning tires on the road in several parts of Katihar.
23:53So, the situation was completely out of control for about two or two, three hours yesterday evening.
23:59But later on, heavy police deployment, reinforcement was sent.
24:02And as I told you, several police teams from the adjoining districts were also called in,
24:06after which the situation was brought under control.
24:10And late at night, the Tajiyah Julus was also asked by the Muslim community to finish the procession peacefully.
24:18And now, the situation in Katihar has been brought under control.
24:23Back to you.
24:24Alright, Rohit, do stay with us.
24:26We're getting some more breaking news from the state of Bihar itself.
24:29And now, this is regarding Bihar political war over Muharram.
24:41Now, Lalu Yadav and Ravi Devi pray at Muharram March at home.
24:45Meanwhile, BJP fires appeasement tribe at Lalu clan,
24:49saying that Lalu Yadav had attacked the Mahakum,
24:52but is now praying, is now having prayers at Muharram March at home.
24:58And now, Nitish Kumar's JDU and Chirag Paswan's LJP has slammed Lalu Yadav's appeasement.
25:28They're working on Buran-cha-tari therein.
25:29But now I do not have challenge this,
25:32that mhmuk, Prophet and Mahakum,
25:34they have no work for any Muslim-owned man,
25:35who now has no work for any Muslim-owned people to be done before.
25:39They have done the work for them,
25:41but they have not helped the thing to be done with us.
25:43They have been the Muslim-ownedans and his Muslim-owned man,
25:45and his Muslim-owned people to be treated before the Muslim-owned man.
25:48These people are only for their own family,
25:51and for their own people to use the same members,
25:52and they do not be for their own people.
25:54the
26:21So,
26:25so,
26:25so,
26:26so,
26:27so,
26:29so,
26:33so,
26:42And my colleague Rohit Singh continues to stay with us.
27:09Rohit, on one hand, Lalu Yadav had attacked Mahakum, calling it useless and also calling out the mismanagement.
27:15On the other hand, we are seeing the rituals of Muharram being performed at his residence.
27:22So now the BJP, the LJP and also Nitish Kumar's JDU is calling it appeasement politics by the Lalu Yadav family.
27:31Well, yes, and that's not without a reason that the opposition or the BJP is attacking Lalu family.
27:38Because as you rightly pointed out during the Mahakum, Lalu himself called it, he called it useless, and now yesterday when the Tazia procession was going to take place and all the people entered Lalu's residence,
27:55we saw that the Lalu family was praying at the Tazia, and the pictures went viral on the social media.
28:02So that gave enough ammunition to the BJP and the JDU and other NDA leaders to attack Lalu Prasad.
28:08That on one hand, you call Hindu events like Mahakum as Haltu and useless, and on the other hand, it's the Muslim appeasement, which is on display, where they are praying at the Tazia.
28:21And the NDA leaders are claiming that it's because of the elections that are just around the corner.
28:27And Lalu Yadav wants to ensure that his core vote bank, that is the Muslims and the Yadav, stay intact and vote for him.
28:37And that is why we are seeing that Muslim appeasement was at display as the opposition leaders are claiming and hitting out at Lalu.
28:45They are also claiming that Lalu only believes in taking vote of the Muslim community, but in the past also and presently also has never done anything for the betterment and upliftment of the Muslim community.
28:58Back to you.
28:59Right. Rohit, do stay with us.
29:00Now, RJD Chief Lalu Prasad Yadav, who had earlier labelled the Mahakumbh as useless,
29:07and we're now being joined by RJD's Mrityunjay Tiwari on the broadcast.
29:16Mr. Tiwari, we are seeing that on one hand, Lalu Yadav's family slammed the Mahakumbh, saying that it is useless and saying that there's a lot of mismanagement.
29:26But on the other hand, the same family is now performing rituals of Muharram at their own residence.
29:33What message is the RJD trying to send out?
29:35Look, the message clear is that this Hindustan will go from its own, and the Ganga Jamni Tahajib will be willing to harm someone to harm someone, so this is not a solution.
29:50The question was that Adhani Lalu Prasad Yadav didn't have to raise the issue.
29:54That's why Adhani Lalu Prasad Yadav has said that this is not a solution, it's not a solution, it's a solution.
30:09And wherever you are talking about it, wherever you need to know that Adhani Lalu Prasad Yadav had been doing the same, it is a solution.
30:24Thank you very much.
30:39Thank you very much.
31:09The USP is not able to understand the USP.
31:25The USP is not able to do anything wrong with this.
31:30This is a Bihar.
31:31Why are the people who are in the face of the USP?
31:34What do you want to do?
31:35The people who are working on the war,
31:37the people who are working on the war,
31:39Mrityajasvij Adav jiye ne to kalamb baata, naukari baati.
31:43Mrityajasvij Adav jiye ne maha kumbh me dupki bhi nahi li, maha kumbh ko bura bhala bhi bola, useless bola in fact.
31:55Lekin دوسرے طرف جو ہم دیکھ رہے ہیں visuals میں, ان کے خود کے گھر پہ محرم کے جو rituals ہے وہ perform کیے جا رہے ہیں, محرم منائے جا رہے ہیں.

35:32And the cops now suspect the role of three people in this murder.
35:36And two spotters helped shooter kill Gopal Khemka.
35:40This is what is being claimed by the police.
35:49A full-blown war has now erupted over the electoral role revision process in Bihar.
35:54Dejasvi Yadav's RJD has approached the top court,
35:57challenging the Election Commission order on revision of the electoral roles in the state.
36:02RJD has alleged that the role revision process is hasty
36:05and that the move will take away voters' right in an already document deficit state.
36:10RJD's plea is that the latest among a chorus of political voices from the opposition
36:15criticising the Election Commission's order to conduct the exercise in the poll-bound state.
36:20Now, TMC has also taken the poll panel to the court.
36:23TMC MP Mahua Mohitra has alleged that the exercise is illegal
36:27and is a move to defeat democracy with the help of democratic tools.
36:31She has also alleged that the Election Commission is BJP's arm
36:35and that West Bengal is its next target.
36:38Amid confusion and rumours, the poll panel has also issued a clarification
36:41saying that the process is being conducted
36:43as per special intensive revision instructions dated June 24, 2025
36:48and that there is no change in the instructions.

38:25Petitioners to mention matters for urgent hearing.
38:28Now, the Association for Democratic Reforms and Mahmah Mohitwa are likely to mention
38:33and seek urgent hearing in the Supreme Court.
38:36The battery of senior lawyers is likely to appear as multiple PILs have been filed against
38:41the special revision of electoral roles before the Bihar election.
38:46Now, PILs have sought stay on revision, setting aside the Election Commission's order.
38:51Please have also sought stay on any future orders of Election Commission for similar revision exercise.
38:58So that's the latest that's coming in that the Association for Democratic Reforms
39:02and Mahmah Mohitwa are likely to mention and seek urgent hearing on the electoral revision issue
39:08in the Supreme Court.
39:10A battery of senior lawyers are likely to appear as multiple PILs have been filed against special
39:15revision of electoral roles before the Bihar elections.

39:32It's BRICS vs. Donald Trump once again.
39:39In Rio de Janeiro, Brazil, the BRICS summit is taking place, which was attended by Prime Minister Modi.
39:45During the summit, BRICS leaders attacked Donald Trump, saying that Trump's tariffs might shake the world's economy.
39:52They also claimed that Trump's bill is also inconsistent with the international laws.
39:56They said that Trump's tariffs may distort trade.
40:00Trump has hit back at BRICS and reiterated the warning of a hike in tariffs.
40:04Trump says any country that pursues anti-American policies will face an additional tariff of 10 percent.
40:11Remember, in February, Trump made a similar attack on BRICS, claiming that tariffs would be hiked if they tried to undermine the dollar.
40:18How about BRICS?
40:22You know, the BRICS states are like six of them, and they were trying to destroy our dollar.
40:26They were going to say, you know, they wanted to create a new currency.
40:29They probably wanted to use the yuan in China.
40:31They wanted to use the yuan.
40:34And Biden said, well, this is a tough situation.
40:36There's not much we can do about that.
40:38We can't help that.
40:39I said, well, we can help it.
40:40So when I came in, the first thing I said is, any BRICS state that even mentions the destruction of the dollar will be charged a 150 percent tariff.
40:50And we don't want your goods.
40:52We don't want to partake.
40:53And the BRICS states just broke up.
40:54I don't know what the hell happened to them.
40:56We haven't heard from the BRICS states lately.
41:00U.S. President Donald Trump has signed tariff letters to 12 countries, serving them with take-it or leave-it offers.
41:07Amid a global trade war, Trump had suspended tariffs over 10 percent for 90 days to allow time for deal negotiations.
41:14The new tariff letters will be given today at 9.30 p.m.
41:18A deal with India has also not yet come together.
41:22And sources have told India today that India and U.S. have completed trade talks and are positive about the outcome.
41:28Now, as per sources, the deal will help India's labor-intensive sectors and be fair towards agriculture and dairy sectors that have long remained amongst India's concerns.
41:37And ahead of the deadline, Trump has said that 12 letters with different tariff rates are set to go out on Monday, that is today.
41:45But he declined to name the countries involved.
41:48Till date, the U.S. only finalized agreements with the U.K. and Vietnam and an interim truce was reached with China.
41:56But U.S. talks with major trading partners such as Japan and the European Union have not yielded a breakthrough so far.
42:26We've made deals also, so we're going to have a combination of letters and some deals have been made.
42:32But they go into effect on August 1st.
42:35Tariffs go into effect August 1st.
42:37But the president is setting the rates and the deals right now.
42:41And we're now getting some breaking news.

45:51Big boost for Modi government's One Nation, One Pole push.
45:55Ex-CGI's crucial backing for the One Nation, One Pole.
45:59Justice Chandrachur backs simultaneous polls in the nation.
46:04He says that the ex-CGI says that One Nation, One Pole is constitutional
46:09and that EC can't have sweeping powers.
46:13So that's a big boost for the Modi government's One Nation, One Pole push.
46:18Now, ex-Chief Justice of India, Chandrachur, has now backed the One Nation, One Pole,
46:25saying that it is constitutional and that the Election Commission can't have sweeping powers.
46:34So the Modi government's One Nation, One Pole has got a strong backing from the ex-Chief Justice of India,
46:41Chandrachur, saying that the One Nation, One Pole is constitutional.
46:46And in fact, he has also said that the poll body, the Election Commission, can't have sweeping powers.
46:52And he has clearly backed the idea of simultaneous polls in the country.
46:57Remember, the BJP, the NDA government has been backing the idea of One Nation, One Pole,
47:02where simultaneous polls should be conducted across the country.
47:05They cite that this would save a lot of funds that are spent during the campaigning,
47:14during several elections that are held across the nation, across the year.
47:19And my colleague Piyush Mishra is now joining us with more details.
47:22Piyush, big and strong backing from ex-CGI Chandrachur,
47:27saying that the One Nation, One Pole is in fact constitutional
47:30and that there should be simultaneous polls in the country.
47:33Well, certainly, that's what we are now hearing,
47:37that former Chief President of India,
47:39and they have now conveyed their views to the Parliamentary Committee on this bill.
47:43They have said that Sanitian polls have endorsed the constitutionality of the One Nation, One election,
47:49but they have also raised the concerns over the various aspects,
47:53which also includes the power given to the Election Commission,
47:56and they have also offered multiple submissions.
47:59Remember that the former CJI, D.Y. Chandrachur,
48:01who are also part of this entire group,
48:04has submitted his opinion to the JPC,
48:07where he has dismissed the opposition system
48:09that synchronization of local polls and state assembly polls
48:13violates the constitutional basic structure.
48:16And he has also said that the constitution never mandated
48:19holding the national and state elections.
48:21It was also a big win for the government's move.
48:24At the same time, a few concerns have been raised by the group of former CJI.
48:29But that's the way, there are lots of reportable parties like D.Y.C. and Congress are going to speak on this.
48:34But at the same time, it is also important to understand that CJI,
48:37Randin Gogoi, in the questioning of sweeping powers,
48:41said that the powers would have been granted to Election Commission
48:45in the proposed constitutional law
48:47without laying down any guidance of the accord of discussion.
48:50This is somewhere a big concern,
48:52which has also been raised before the parliamentary panel.
48:56We have to see how the political parties are going to look into the concerns
48:58with the same days.
49:00And at the same time,
49:01the kind of proposals they have extended to one nation
49:03is one for this concern.
49:04All right, Piyush, thank you so much for getting us all those details
49:07and for that context.
49:12Well, with that, it's a wrap on this bulletin.
