26/11 prosecutor, former foreign secretary, 2 others nominated to Rajya Sabha
Sunday, 13 July 2025 () President Droupadi Murmu nominated lawyer Ujjwal Nikam, retired diplomat Harsh Vardhan Shringla, RSS worker C Sadanandan Master, and historian Meenakshi Jain to the Rajya Sabha, filling vacancies that had been pending for nearly a year. Prime Minister Narendra Modi praised their contributions, highlighting Nikam's legal expertise, Shringla's diplomatic service, Master's resilience, and Jain's work in preserving cultural heritage.
Amid a flurry of high-level meetings involving PM Modi, President Murmu, and Home Minister Amit Shah, speculation over the restoration of Jammu & Kashmir’s statehood is back in the spotlight. Former CM Omar Abdullah added fuel to the fire by calling the momentum a “gut feeling,” even as he denied meeting any central leaders. The renewed political chatter comes ahead of the August 5 anniversary of Article 370's revocation. While local leaders continue demanding statehood, the Centre has yet to announce a clear timeline.
