R-Day parade this year to have more cultural elements, says defence secretary
Tuesday, 21 January 2025 The Republic Day parade in New Delhi will feature a blend of military and cultural elements, showcasing the new Pralay missile. Indonesian President Prabowo Subianto will be the chief guest, and around 10,000 special invitees will ensure wider societal participation. However, the Tejas jets and Dhruv helicopters will not be part of the fly-past due to grounding issues.
French President Emmanuel Macron arrived in Indonesia with First Lady Brigitte following the viral ‘slap-gate’ moment in Vietnam, which he downplayed as playful “horsing around.” The visit marks the 75th anniversary of France-Indonesia diplomatic ties. Macron was welcomed with a grand military parade and met President Prabowo Subianto to discuss deepening cooperation in defense, energy, and digitization. Talks reportedly include Indonesia’s interest in procuring French-made Rafale fighter jets and Scorpene submarines as strategic ties between the two nations grow stronger.

India has refused to endorse the SCO's strong condemnation of Israel’s military strikes on Iran, signalling a diplomatic divergence within the Eurasian bloc. While China, Russia, and others denounced Israel’s actions, New Delhi maintained a neutral stance—underscoring its strategic balancing act between Iran and Israel. As India deepens its defence ties with Israel and economic interests with Iran, experts say New Delhi is trying to avoid choosing sides amid Trump’s sanctions, escalating tensions, and looming global instability.

A limestone quarry in Indonesia’s West Java province collapsed on Friday, killing at least 13 people and injuring a dozen others. Authorities fear more may still be buried under the rubble. The rescue mission, involving excavators and volunteers, was halted due to unstable soil and will resume Saturday. Governor Dedi Mulyadi ordered the permanent closure of this and four similar unsafe mining sites. This is the quarry’s second collapse this year, highlighting growing concerns over mining safety in the Southeast Asian archipelago.
