‘Encourages conversions’: BJP slams Mamata government’s stand on OBC list; calls it ‘dangerous precedent’
Wednesday, 11 June 2025 () The Bharatiya Janata Party (BJP) has accused West Bengal's Mamata Banerjee government of promoting religious conversions by granting OBC status to Christian converts. BJP alleges the state's OBC list favors Muslims, increasing their representation significantly since 2010. This move, according to BJP, is a blatant appeasement tactic for vote-bank politics, disregarding a Supreme Court ruling against religion-based reservations.

Zohrán Mamdani has delivered a stunning upset in New York City politics, defeating former Governor Andrew Cuomo to win the Democratic mayoral primary. The 33-year-old state assembly member and democratic socialist becomes the first Muslim and the first Indian-American ever nominated by a major party for mayor of New York City.

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? Watch the full story.

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.

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.”

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.

Between 2010 and 2020, the world’s population grew—and so did most major religious groups. Christianity remains the largest religion at 2.3 billion, but its global share fell to 28.8% as more people left the faith, especially in Western nations. Islam experienced the fastest growth, adding 347 million to reach 2 billion globally, fueled by high fertility rates and youthful populations. Meanwhile, the religiously unaffiliated rose to 24.2%, driven by secular trends in countries like China, the U.S., and Japan. Demographic shifts suggest Islam could match Christianity by mid-century.

Senate narrowly rejected an amendment to fund Planned Parenthood, with a 49–51 vote. Demonstrators rallied in cities like Anaheim, California, demanding Congress defund the program. Pro-life advocate Lila Rose urged mass support for ending Medicaid funding. Meanwhile, Sen. Patty Murray criticized the bill, which could block reimbursement for cancer screenings and other non-abortion services. A recent Supreme Court ruling has empowered states to cut off Medicaid to Planned Parenthood, potentially closing 200 clinics and affecting millions of low-income Americans.

In a 6–3 decision, the U.S. Supreme Court handed Donald Trump a major judicial win, curbing federal judges’ power to issue nationwide injunctions that block presidential policies. Trump celebrated the ruling as a “monumental victory” for the Constitution, potentially clearing the path for sweeping policy moves, including controversial immigration actions. Liberal Justice Sonia Sotomayor slammed the decision as a threat to the rule of law, warning it could erode judicial checks. While Trump’s birthright citizenship order remains blocked, the new ruling shifts the legal battlefield dramatically in his favor.
