Bantwala: Cong-BJP leaders engage in fracas
Indira Canteen inauguration
Bantwala, Dec 9: The inaugural programme of Indira Canteen has become an issue of tug of war between Congress and BJP leaders on Sunday.
BJP leaders complained to the police through tahsildar to avoid former minister B Ramanath Rai from inaugurating the Indira Canteen and Congress leaders questioned this. This has led to the fracas between Congress and BJP leaders.
As Ramanath Rai attended the inaugural programme, MP Nalin Kumar Kateel, MLA Rajesh Naik were absent from canteen inauguration programme. The Congress workers shouted slogans in favour of Rahul Gandhi, while BJP leaders raised slogans in favour of Modi.

Indian opposition condemns Khamenei killing; Modi government yet to comment
New Delhi: The Indian National Congress has condemned the joint US-Israel strikes that reportedly killed Iran’s Supreme Leader Ayatollah Ali Khamenei on Saturday.
In a statement, the Congress said it “unequivocally condemns the targeted assassination” of the Iranian leader, describing it as “in a military strike carried out without a formal declaration of war.”
The party termed the development a serious escalation and raised concerns over the implications for regional stability.
Meanwhile, the Government of India has not issued any formal statement specifically on Khamenei’s reported killing so far.
On Saturday, the Narendra Modi government had expressed concern over the escalating tensions in the Middle East, as the United States, Israel and Iran exchanged missile strikes. However, it stopped short of directly commenting on the reports regarding the Iranian leader’s death.
India has traditionally maintained working relations with the Islamic Republic of Iran, alongside its ties with the United States and Israel. Further official reaction from New Delhi is awaited.
