‘WON’T SCRAP MY CAR’—Delhi Fuel Ban on 62 Lakh Vehicles Paused | Protests Explode Over EOL Policy [Video]

‘WON’T SCRAP MY CAR’—Delhi Fuel Ban on 62 Lakh Vehicles Paused | Protests Explode Over EOL Policy

Public outrage has forced the Delhi government to pause its controversial plan to deny fuel to over 62 lakh "End of Life" vehicles — including cars, bikes, trucks, and even vintage automobiles. The now-on-hold EOL policy targeted petrol vehicles older than 15 years and diesel ones older than 10, with fuel stations set to use number plate recognition to block refueling. But after massive backlash from citizens — especially those with well-maintained older vehicles and valid pollution certificates — the government is rethinking its move. Environment Minister Manjinder Singh Sirsa cited “technological challenges” and announced a shift in focus: targeting poorly-maintained vehicles instead of penalizing all old ones. #DelhiFuelBan #EndOfLifeVehicles #EOLPolicy #DelhiPollution #OldCarBan #FuelBanRollback #DelhiGovt #AirPollution #VehicleScrappage #PUCC #EnvironmentalPolicy #PublicOutcry #AutoNews #VehicleBan #DelhiNews #ManjinderSinghSirsa #BreakingNews ~HT.318~

“He looks terrible like”—Trump Blasts India-born 'Socialist Muslim' Zohran Mamdani | NYC Mayrol Poll

Donald Trump has launched a scathing personal attack on Zohran Mamdani — the 33-year-old Indian-origin socialist who just won New York City's Democratic mayoral primary. Calling him a "100% communist lunatic" with a "grating voice" and “terrible looks,” Trump didn't hold back. The president also lashed out at progressive Democrats like AOC and Chuck Schumer for backing Mamdani, warning that NYC is "falling to socialism." Who is Zohran Mamdani? Can a Marxist win New York? And why is Trump going nuclear over this primary upset?

Muslim World to DITCH Iran when World War III begins? Muslim World League CONDEMNS strikes on Qatar [Video]

Muslim World to DITCH Iran when World War III begins? Muslim World League CONDEMNS strikes on Qatar

The Muslim World League has strongly condemned Iran’s strikes on U.S. bases in Qatar, calling them a blatant violation of Islamic values. This rare rebuke underscores Iran’s deepening isolation within the Muslim world amid its war against the U.S. and Israel. No Islamic nation has come to Iran’s aid—militarily or diplomatically. Long criticized for its expansionist policies and use of proxies, Iran now finds itself increasingly abandoned as regional powers step back, signaling a collapse of strategic tolerance. #IranIsolated #MuslimWorldLeague #IranStrikesQatar #MiddleEastCrisis #IranUSConflict #IranIsraelWar #MWLCondemnsIran #IslamicWorldResponse #ProxyWarFailure #TehranAlone #RegionalRealignment #NoSupportForIran #GulfSecurity #MiddleEastTensions #Hezbollah #Houthis #IranianAggression #QatarAttack #USBaseAttack #IranExpansionism #IslamicUnity #Geopolitics #AyatollahRegime #TehranMissteps #BreakingNews ~ED.194~HT.408~GR.124~
