The Congress needs to strike a balance: occupy the pole position in the campaign while ensuring that the INDIA bloc does not begin to look like a platform for a single party or leader. ✍️@fewcan

Another historic and joyous milestone for Project Cheetah! 🐆❤️
KJP21, a 32-month-old Indian-born female cheetah, has given birth to five healthy cubs in Kuno National Park today.
KJP21 is the third Indian-born female cheetah to give birth, after Mukhi and KGP12—an important milestone in the emergence of the next generation of India’s cheetah population.
With the arrival of these five cubs, the cheetah population in India has reached 60, including 41 Indian-born cheetahs.
Importantly, these cubs also mark the beginning of the Botswanan lineage in India, as their father is a Botswanan male cheetah—adding a new genetic lineage to India’s growing cheetah population.
Another generation born on Indian soil, adding yet another beautiful chapter to the remarkable story of cheetah reintroduction in India.
Heartfelt congratulations to the veterinarians, field staff, managers and everyone associated with Project Cheetah, whose dedication, commitment and tireless efforts have made these moments possible.
Welcome to the world, little ones 🐆

The proposed visit of the Joint Parliamentary Committee examining the 'One Nation, One Election' Bills to the Supreme Court has raised questions about the separation of powers between Parliament and the judiciary.
While parliamentary committees have interacted with sitting Judges in the past, the Opposition has objected to Judges being consulted on the merits or constitutional validity of a Bill that could later come before the Supreme Court.
