New Zealand Parliament Erupts Over Haka Protest Against ‘Racist’ Bill | 3 Maori MP's SUSPENDED

New Zealand’s Parliament suspended three opposition lawmakers, Rawiri Waititi, Debbie Ngarewa-Packer, and Hana-Rawhiti Maipi-Clarke, over their haka performance in protest of a controversial bill. The bill, supported by the conservative government, sparked backlash from the Māori community, with critics claiming it represented an anti-Māori agenda. This protest, the most severe disciplinary action against lawmakers in New Zealand’s history, signals a growing debate over Māori culture’s role in public life and the nation’s push for Indigenous rights. #NewZealand #Māori #Haka #Parliament #IndigenousRights #RawiriWaititi #DebbieNgarewaPacker #HanaRawhitiMaipiClarke #TePātiMāori #MāoriCulture #GovernmentProtest #MāoriProtest #PoliticalDebate #CulturalProtest #ControversialBill #MāoriInParliament #IndigenousVoices #PoliticalSuspension #NewZealandPolitics #ParliamentaryProtest #ConservativeGovernment #IndigenousRightsDebate #PublicLife #MāoriRepresentation #GovernmentAgenda #OppositionProtest #CulturalIdentity #PoliticalDiscipline #TePātiMāoriProtest #MāoriTensions Also Read New Zealand Lawmaker Confronts Deepfake Abuse With Bold AI Demonstration In Parliament :: https://www.oneindia.com/international/new-zealand-mp-stuns-parliament-with-ai-generated-nude-image-to-expose-deepfake-abuse-4172979.html?ref=DMDesc New Zealand Immigration Minister Slammed For Comparing Indian Emails To 'Spams': 'I Never Respond To Them' :: https://www.oneindia.com/international/new-zealand-immigration-minister-slammed-for-comparing-indian-emails-to-spams-i-never-respond-to-4164093.html?ref=DMDesc 6.8-Magnitude Earthquake Jolts New Zealand’s Riverton Coast, No Tsunami Alert :: https://www.oneindia.com/international/6-8-magnitude-earthquake-jolts-new-zealand-s-riverton-coast-no-tsunami-alert-4104235.html?ref=DMDesc ~HT.336~GR.125~

Waqf Amendment Bill: Necessary Reform for Transparency & Inclusivity | Strengthening India’s Future

The Waqf Amendment Bill, 2025, is a crucial reform that brings transparency, accountability, and inclusivity to the management of Waqf assets in India. This reform aims to ensure that Waqf land and resources are used for the public good, preventing misuse and corruption while empowering marginalized communities, particularly Pasmanda Muslims. The Bill’s provisions include digitizing Waqf assets, providing public access, and including non-Muslim members in Waqf Boards to ensure broader representation. Despite protests and misinformation, the government’s goal is clear: to create a more efficient, transparent, and inclusive system that benefits all of India. #WaqfAmendment #IndiaReform #Transparency #Inclusivity #WaqfBill #ModiGovernment #Empowerment #IndianPolitics #WaqfReform #SocialJustice #Bharat #PublicGood #PasmandaMuslims #Corruption #LandReform #SecularIndia

Muslim Ban 2.0? Trump’s 2025 Travel Ban Ditches the Protests - But Raises Bigger Questions [Video]

Muslim Ban 2.0? Trump’s 2025 Travel Ban Ditches the Protests - But Raises Bigger Questions

Donald Trump’s controversial travel ban is back - this time broader, more strategic, and without an expiration date. Dubbed by critics as "Muslim Ban 2.0," the 2025 version expands beyond Muslim-majority countries, citing visa overstay rates and political instability. Unlike the explosive protests seen in 2017, this round has sparked quieter concern but deeper legal and ethical questions. As the list of restricted nations grows, so do fears about religious profiling, global diplomacy, and the long-term impact on America’s immigrant identity. #TrumpTravelBan #MuslimBan #TravelBan2025 #TrumpBanReturns #USVisaBan #MuslimTravelBan #DonaldTrumpBan #BanControversy #ImmigrationBan #TrumpPolicy2025 #NoEntryBan #VisaRestrictions #TrumpMuslimBan #NewTravelBan #TrumpVsImmigrants Also Read US Issues Travel Ban For Khyber Pakhtunkhwa: Serena Hotel Peshawar Flagged As High-Risk :: https://www.oneindia.com/international/us-issues-travel-ban-for-khyber-pakhtunkhwa-serena-hotel-peshawar-flagged-as-high-risk-4000413.html?ref=DMDesc UN Security Council Lifts Travel Ban On Taliban Officials For Hajj Pilgrimage :: https://www.oneindia.com/international/un-security-council-lifts-travel-ban-on-taliban-officials-for-hajj-pilgrimage-3846327.html?ref=DMDesc Sri Lanka crisis: SC bars ex PM Mahinda Rajapaksa, Basil from leaving country until July 28 :: https://www.oneindia.com/international/sc-imposes-travel-ban-on-mahinda-rajapaksa-basil-3434186.html?ref=DMDesc ~PR.152~HT.336~GR.125~
