Two more suspects got locked up in that political murder case. A Dhaka court sent Civion Dew and Sanjay Chisim to jail after police finished interrogating them, alleging they helped the main suspect, Foysal Karim Masud, flee to India after the killing of Sharif Osman Hadi. Hadi, an independent candidate for Dhaka-8 and a spokesperson for the group Inqilab Moncho, was shot by motorcycle assailants while riding a rickshaw in the city's Bijoynagar area.
The case was originally filed for attempted murder by the group's member secretary, Abdullah Al Zaber, at Paltan Model Police Station. It was upgraded to a full murder charge after Hadi died from his injuries. The two accused had previously been granted two separate rounds of remand by...
The election commission just redrew some district maps right after setting the voting date. Election officials changed the boundaries for four parliamentary seats in Pabna and Faridpur, specifically Pabna-1, Pabna-2, Faridpur-2, and Faridpur-4, following a high court order. Their public relations director confirmed the move, noting a formal gazette was published with the new lines.
Under this revision, Pabna-1 now covers all of Santhia Upazila plus a chunk of Bera Upazila, including its municipality and four union areas. Pabna-2 gets the rest of Bera Upazila, along with Sujanagar Upazila. In Faridpur, the second constituency will contain only Nagarkanda and Saltha upazilas, while the fourth constituency will gain Bhanga, Charbhadrasan...
A major political figure finally visited a war memorial after years abroad. BNP Acting Chairman Tarique Rahman paid respects to Liberation War martyrs at the National Memorial in Savar, arriving in a secured bus late at night. He had just returned to Bangladesh after seventeen years of exile in London, drawing a large crowd of party supporters to the site. Security forces, including police, detectives, RAB, and BGB, were deployed along the Dhaka-Aricha Highway and around the memorial for his protection.
Because he arrived after sunset, a delegation of senior BNP leaders placed wreaths at the altar on his behalf earlier in the evening. Before heading to Savar, Tarique Rahman's convoy first stopped at the Sher-e-Bangla Nagar mausoleum in...
The current Rajasthan boss just unloaded on his predecessor over the Aravalli mountains. Chief Minister Bhajan Lal Sharma slammed former CM Ashok Gehlot and the Congress party, accusing them of plundering the region's stones and sand. He questioned who altered the Aravalli's official definition years ago and how many mining leases were approved under their watch, vowing no further tampering with the range.
Sharma called Congress leaders rumormongers, linking their past criticism of the Citizenship Amendment Act to what he sees as their current falsehoods about the constitution and state intelligence. He asserted no infiltrators would be permitted to remain. Taking a personal dig, he labeled Gehlot a fading Twitter master whose...
A religious figure is sounding the alarm about Hindu persecution in Bangladesh. Dhirendra Krishna Shastri, the chief of Bageshwar Dham, often called Bageshwar Baba, condemned recent mob attacks during a press conference in Raipur, Chhattisgarh, where he is holding a multi-day religious event. He specifically mentioned the lynching of a man named Amrit Mandal in Rajbari district and the earlier killing of Dipu Chandra Das, calling the situation dire for the minority community there.
Shastri argued that Hindu identity in Bangladesh faces grave danger, suggesting people could be forced to convert or worse if no action is taken. He made a direct appeal for Hindu unity across India and pushed the Indian government to step in. His proposed...
That one state in India keeps winning the startup game. Gujarat is getting called a top innovation hub, largely thanks to government action like their Student Startup and Innovation Policy and its main engine, i-Hub Gujarat in Ahmedabad.

Their modern campus currently helps hundreds of young companies with incubation space and expert advice. This whole system scored Gujarat national awards for its startup infrastructure, ranking it best in the country in a key...
Christians in Bangladesh are seriously scared right now. A string of attacks in Dhaka, including crude bombs tossed at Holy Rosary Church and St. Mary's Cathedral, plus threats from a group called Tauhidee Muslim Janata against Notre Dame College and Holy Cross College, have everyone on edge before Christmas. Authorities have posted police at churches for the holidays because of this.
A local priest named Joyanto S. Gomes told reporters that a real climate of fear exists, made worse by a bigger trend of mob violence across the country. Churches are reacting by setting up security committees and installing CCTV cameras. The broader minority situation looks bad too, with a rights group tracking a sharp increase in mob lynchings this...
Independent politician Temba Mliswa slammed ZANU-PF spokesperson Chris Mutsvangwa, accusing him of petty personal feuds with businessman Kuda Tagwirei instead of focusing on bigger issues.
Mliswa said Mutsvangwa's attacks are an embarrassment, driven by personal ambition. He defended local tycoons who fund the party, arguing ZANU-PF might not be in power without them, comparing it to other African nations not criticizing their own business leaders. He claimed even Mutsvangwa owes his position to these figures, and said the government should enable success, not gatekeep it.
He shifted focus to Chinese investments, specifically calling the Manhize steel project a heist. Mliswa alleged the real money goes to China despite the project's...
