Waqf Act amended to neutralise changes made by Congress for 'appeasement': PM Modi

IndiaTimes Tuesday, 8 April 2025
PM Modi defended the Waqf Act amendments, stating they rectify UPA's appeasement policies that favored fundamentalists and land grabbers, contributing to India's Partition. He asserted the 2013 changes prioritized land mafia interests over the Constitution, hindering justice for victims. The new law aims to protect common Muslims, with Parliament passing it after extensive debate and public consultation.

“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~

'Dumb Fomer Presidents Failed!: JD Vance Defends Trump’s Iran Strikes | Iran-Israel Conflict

U.S. Vice President JD Vance has sparked global backlash by justifying President Trump’s strikes on Iran, declaring past leaders were “dumb” and lacked vision. “This war is justified,” Vance claimed, as Tehran reels from coordinated U.S.-Israel attacks. His remarks come amid widespread condemnation from China, Russia, and the Muslim world. Critics call the statement a green light for unprovoked warfare. With Tehran vowing retaliation, Vance’s blunt rhetoric adds fuel to an already volatile situation, while painting the U.S. escalation as necessary and “smart.” #JDVanceSpeech #TrumpIranWar #IranConflict #USIranEscalation #MiddleEastWar #IranRetaliation #ProIranCoverage#TehranUnderAttack #SmartWarComment #VanceIranJustification #USIsraelAlliance #GlobalBacklash #IranStrikesBack #DumbPresidentsRemark #TrumpMiddleEast #IranRights #IranianSovereignty #AntiWarMovement #TehranCrisis #VicePresidentVance #IranCondemnsUS

Pak BETRAYS ‘Brother’ Iran | ‘No Such Commitment’ | Pak on Iran’s ‘tit-fot’tat’ nuclear attack claim

Pakistan has denied claims that it would launch a nuclear strike on Israel if Iran were attacked. Defence Minister Khawaja Asif clarified that Pakistan’s nuclear capability is strictly for national defense—not for hegemonic agendas. This comes after Iranian official Mohsen Rezaei claimed Islamabad had promised nuclear retaliation on Iran’s behalf. While Pakistan maintains strategic ties with Iran and urges Muslim unity against Israel, it has clearly distanced itself from any nuclear involvement, warning the West of Israel’s unchecked nuclear might. #Pakistan #Iran #IsraelIranWar #NuclearStrike #MiddleEastCrisis #KhawajaAsif #MohsenRezaei #PakistanIranTies #IsraelTensions #StrategicDenial #NuclearPolicy #GlobalSecurity #BreakingNews #MuslimUnity #IsraelStrikes #NuclearDeterrence #PakDefence #IsraelConflict #Tehran #Islamabad #MiddleEastNews #Geopolitics #IranPakistan #NuclearThreat #PakRebutsIran #IsraelWar #PakistaniPolitics Also Read Khawaja Asif: Pakistan Made ‘No Such Commitment’ To Iran On Israel Nuclear Strike :: https://www.oneindia.com/international/khawaja-asif-pakistan-made-no-such-commitment-to-iran-on-israel-nuclear-strike-4183025.html?ref=DMDesc Iran: Pakistan Will Launch Nuclear Attack If Israel Strikes With Nukes :: https://www.oneindia.com/international/iran-pakistan-will-launch-nuclear-attack-if-israel-strikes-with-nukes-4182787.html?ref=DMDesc Missiles In The Sky, Music On The Roof: Viral Videos Show Beirut Partying Amid Israel-Iran Strikes :: https://www.oneindia.com/international/missiles-in-the-sky-music-on-the-roof-viral-videos-show-beirut-partying-amid-israel-iran-strikes-4182745.html?ref=DMDesc ~HT.410~ED.103~GR.124~

IRAN STRIKES BACK: Parliament CUTS TIES With IAEA Over US-Israel 'Spying' |Khamenei Declares Victory

Iran's Parliament has voted to suspend cooperation with the International Atomic Energy Agency, branding it a "spy tool" of Western powers. The IRGC’s Sepah News confirmed the vote amid fiery debates and nationalistic sloganeering. Iranian leaders accuse the IAEA of siding with the U.S. and Israel, endangering national sovereignty. Supreme Leader Khamenei declared a "decisive victory" over Western pressure, while Russia’s Foreign Minister warned the IAEA to maintain neutrality. As Tehran escalates its stance, tensions over nuclear transparency and geopolitical influence deepen. #Iran #IAEA #IranParliament #NuclearTensions #Khamenei #IranAttack #TelAvivUnderAttack #IranIsraelConflict #IranStrikesHaifa #HaifaPort #MissileStrike #TelAvivExplosions #IsraelIranWar #IronDome #IDF #MiddleEastCrisis #TehranRetaliation #AyatollahKhamenei #IsraelDefense #TelAvivMissiles #IranMissileStrike #IsraelUnderFire #TelAvivSkyline #MilitaryTensions #IDFHeadquarters #IsraelVsIran #BreakingNews Also Read Iran's Khamenei Warns Against Future US Attacks After Ceasefire Agreement :: https://www.oneindia.com/international/irans-khamenei-warns-against-future-us-attacks-011-7784453.html?ref=DMDesc Iran's Guardian Council Approves Bill To Suspend Cooperation With IAEA :: https://www.oneindia.com/international/irans-guardian-council-approves-bill-to-suspend-cooperation-with-iaea-7784177.html?ref=DMDesc Mystery Shrouds Over Supreme Leader Khamenei’s Whereabouts As Iran Faces Military Crisis :: https://www.oneindia.com/international/mystery-shrouds-over-supreme-leader-khamenei-s-whereabouts-as-iran-faces-military-crisis-7783667.html?ref=DMDesc ~HT.318~ED.346~GR.122~

Iran CONFIRMS Nuclear Sites ‘Badly Damaged’ By US Strikes, Vows Revenge | Ends IAEA Cooperation

Iran on Wednesday admitted that U.S. and Israeli strikes caused severe damage to its nuclear facilities, validating President Trump’s claim of “complete obliteration.” Foreign Ministry spokesperson Esmail Baghaei confirmed “significant damage” while refusing to share specifics. In retaliation, Iran’s Parliament fast-tracked a bill suspending cooperation with the IAEA. Despite destruction, Iran vowed to continue its nuclear program. #IranNuclearStrikes #TrumpOnIran #IranIsraelWar #USIranConflict #IAEA #BunkerBusterBombs #NuclearSitesHit #TrumpObliterationClaim #FordowAttack #IranRetaliation #MiddleEastWar #IranParliamentBill #NoMoreIAEA #IranEnrichment #NuclearCrisis #IranMissileStrikes #TehranOnAlert #TrumpNATOStatement #IranUSCeasefire #RafaelGrossi Also Read Iranian Citizens Contemplate Future After 12-Day War and US-Brokered Ceasefire :: https://www.oneindia.com/international/12-day-war-ceasefire-iran-future-concerns-011-7783479.html?ref=DMDesc Middle East Conflict Reveals Significant Changes in Global Energy Supply Dynamics :: https://www.oneindia.com/international/middle-east-conflict-global-energy-supply-changes-011-7783469.html?ref=DMDesc Battered Iran Faces Uncertain Future After Conflict with Israel Amidst Economic Turmoil :: https://www.oneindia.com/international/battered-iran-faces-uncertain-future-after-war-with-israel-011-7783467.html?ref=DMDesc ~HT.318~ED.102~PR.152~GR.122~
