Sharmista needs to understand and accept the reality that congress is biting dust and party is dissimated and congress as a party stole common citizens rights and finances. Majority of congressmen are thieves worser than the British empire. Congress had only one ideology i e providing misinformation or no information .

What you do comes back really fast. I read somewhere that when Rajiv Gandhi died Sonia Gandhi was not interested in coming into politics and from that reluctant, disinterested her to becoming party president, that too longest serving one and not only that creating conditions and environment, basically strategising moves passing on the control of the party to her son does not actually fall in line with her initial days claims of her disinterest in politics. For Pronob Mukherjee he should have known that his loyalty is with the party and not with xyz family or sir name. What he did to get Sonia Gandhi into as President was not needed atall and that was certainly blunder in history of Congress in ruining it. His greed probably. Also in Sonia Gandhi there is no sense of gratitude towards the man who was responsible for getting widow homemaker who has no prior experience in politics to take up top post of party. She never made him the PM. I am sure back then without Gandhi Congress would have survived, there were so many illustrious and capable leaders to carry on.

Central African Republic Gold Mine Landslide Kills At Least 100, Rescue Operations Underway

Published

WION

A major mining tragedy has struck the Central African Republic, where a landslide at the Zamboy gold mining site has killed at least 100 people.

The mining site is located around 50 kilometres from the town of Bambari, where hundreds of artisanal miners reportedly work. A section of the open-pit mining area collapsed, burying people in its path.

Survivors have been taken to hospitals, while search and recovery operations continue. Authorities say the exact number of people inside the mine when the accident occurred remains unknown.

The local public prosecutor said the landslide may have been triggered by the collapse of several underground tunnels where miners were operating. A judicial inquiry has been opened into the disaster.

Small-scale and informal mining remains widespread in parts of Africa, despite regulations and safety concerns. Unemployment and the search for livelihoods continue to push workers toward abandoned or unsafe mining sites.

Karnataka is witnessing a statewide bandh over the Cauvery water-sharing dispute with Tamil Nadu, with security measures heightened across the state.

Protesters in several parts of Karnataka are opposing the release of Cauvery water to Tamil Nadu, while stressing that they want the state’s own drinking water and irrigation requirements to be prioritised. In Koppal, protesters adopted an unusual form of demonstration by offering roses to lorry drivers heading towards Tamil Nadu.

Protest groups are also demanding long-term measures to strengthen Karnataka’s water security, including faster implementation of the Mekedatu project.

More than 50 members of pro-Kannada organisations were reportedly arrested during protests. Meanwhile, operations at Kempegowda International Airport remained normal despite the bandh.
