Education Minister, Home Minister should take responsibility for instigating Hijab row: Siddaramaiah
Bengaluru: Former Karnataka Chief Minister Siddaramaiah on Tuesday called on the state’s Education Minister and Home Minister to take complete responsibility for instigating the Hijab row.
He added that it was unfortunate that those responsible for resolving the issues are instigating students to make it worse.
Siddaramaiah made a series of tweets and slammed the BJP government in the state for letting the situation go out of control while it could’ve been resolved harmoniously at the local level. He also said the situation was concerning and the schools and colleges in the state were turning into battlefields.
Stating that the BJP politicized the issue and was now clueless about how to bring the situation into control, Siddaramaiah demanded the intervention of CM Bommai and said he should declare holidays to all the schools and colleges where the conflict has been raised, keeping the security of the students in mind.

US rules out use of nuclear weapons against Iran
Washington DC: The White House has reportedly ruled out the use of nuclear weapons against Iran, even as uncertainty continues over ongoing peace negotiations and a deadline set by US President Donald Trump approaches.
Issues bout a possible escalation had increased after US Vice President JD Vance said that the United States has “tools in our toolkit that we so far haven’t decided to use” in dealing with Iran.
His remarks came amid rising tensions and ahead of a deadline linked to peace efforts.
The situation has attracted attention as Trump warned Iran that its “whole civilization will die tonight tonight” if an agreement is not reached by Tuesday at 8 pm.
This statement led to speculation about the possibility of extreme military measures, including a nuclear strike.
Following Vance’s comments, the White House issued a clarification distancing itself from such interpretations. In a post on X, it said, "Literally nothing @VP said here 'implies' this, you absolute buffoons." In a later statement, it added that “only the president knows” what action will be taken regarding Iran.
