Bengal CM Mamata Banerjee corrects historical wrong, renames theatre after 19th century actor

IndiaTimes Monday, 30 December 2024
Bengal CM Mamata Banerjee announced the renaming of Kolkata's Star Theatre to Binodini Theatre to honor actress Binodini Dasi, who was marginalized due to her origins. The current Star Theatre, built in 1887, will reflect this change. This move addresses a historical injustice and celebrates Binodini's significant contributions to Bengali theatre.

BREAKING: Trump Caught Lying? India REFUSES to Stop Buying Russian Oil |Modi Defies U.S Pressure [Video]

BREAKING: Trump Caught Lying? India REFUSES to Stop Buying Russian Oil |Modi Defies U.S Pressure

Trump’s recent claim that India halted oil imports from Russia is falling apart, as multiple reports confirm continued shipments. Despite global pressure, New Delhi says its energy security comes first. Russian oil now accounts for over 30% of India’s crude imports—up from just 1% pre-Ukraine war. Experts say India’s stance is strategic, not political. While the U.S. and EU push for reduced reliance on Moscow, India plays neutral, securing discounted supplies to support its 1.4 billion citizens and shield its economy. #IndiaRussia #RussianOil #TrumpClaim #ModiVisit #OilImports #IndiaEnergy #EnergySecurity #Geopolitics #CrudeOil #DiscountedOil #IndiaNeutral #GlobalEnergy #StrategicPolicy #ModiGovt #OilStrategy #USIndiaTensions #EuropeBuysOil #MoscowOil #OilPolitics #EnergyDeals #IndiaNews #BreakingNews #IndiaFirst #ForeignPolicy #TrumpVsFacts #RussiaIndiaTrade #GlobalPressure #ModiSpeech #EnergyIndependence #IndiaOilImports #FactCheckTrump Also Read IndiGo Bans Passenger Who Slapped Co-Flier Mid-Air on Mumbai-Kolkata Flight :: https://www.oneindia.com/india/indigo-bans-passenger-who-slapped-co-flier-mid-air-on-mumbai-kolkata-flight-011-7819001.html?ref=DMDesc Samantha Ruth Prabhu-Raj Nidimoru Are Engaged?
