'Full confidence in security': Israel after Netanyahu defers India visit; new dates soon
New Delhi: Israeli Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu’s office issued a statement on Tuesday reaffirming "full confidence" in India's security under Prime Minister Narendra Modi, following media reports suggesting that Netanyahu's planned visit to India had been postponed due to security concerns.
The clarification came after media reports emerged claiming that Netanyahu’s visit was deferred in the wake of the November 10 car blast near Delhi’s Red Fort.
"Israel’s bond with India and between Prime Minister Netanyahu and Prime Minister @narendramodi is very strong. The PM has full confidence in India’s security under PM Modi, and teams are already coordinating a new visit date," read a post by Prime Minister of Israel's official X handle.
Netanyahu had been expected to visit India before the end of the year, according to Israeli outlet i24 News Hebrew. His office has confirmed that discussions are ongoing to finalise a new date for the visit.

Mangaluru: Teacher booked for allegedly beating student in school
Vittla (Dakshina Kannada): A case has been registered at the Vittla Police Station against a school teacher on charges of seriously assaulting a student with a cane at an English-medium school in Idkidu village here near Vittla in Dakshina Kannada district.
According to the complaint, the student, who attends the school regularly, had gone to school as usual. Around 2 pm, the child’s parents received a call from the school office stating that their child had allegedly disturbed other students. The school informed them that when the teacher scolded the student over the issue, the child became frightened and urinated, and the parents were asked to come and take the child home.
The parents reportedly told the school staff that no one was at home at the time and requested that the child be sent home in an autorickshaw.
After returning home, the student told the parents that a teacher identified as Istikaar had beaten him severely on the hand with a cane. The child also said that he urinated out of fear while the assault was taking place.
When the parents contacted the teacher over the phone to question him about the incident, he allegedly responded in a dismissive manner.
Following this, the parents lodged complaints with the Vittla Police Station and the Child Development Project Office, seeking justice and strict action against the teacher for allegedly assaulting the child without any valid reason.
Police have registered a case against the teacher and have taken up further investigation.
