Indian garment exporters face Trump’s 50% tariff shock| Oneindia Ground Report

Indian garment exporters are facing a major tariff shock as the Trump administration imposes a steep 50 percent duty on Indian exports. The move directly impacts garment exporters, shoe manufacturers, and leather industries that heavily rely on the US market. With Indian garment exporters already working on razor-thin margins, this tariff threatens millions of jobs and billions in trade revenues. Competitors like Vietnam and Bangladesh could benefit, while Indian garment exporters brace for losses. The Modi government is expected to step in with relief measures as Indian garment exporters explore new markets and diversification strategies.

Pragya Thakur, 6 Others Walk Free in Malegaon Blast Case—After Shah's ‘No Hindu...Terrorist' Remark

Seventeen years after the deadly 2008 Malegaon blast rocked Maharashtra, a special NIA court in Mumbai has acquitted all seven accused — including BJP MP Pragya Singh Thakur and Lt Col Prasad Purohit — citing lack of concrete evidence. The judgment came just one day after Union Home Minister Amit Shah told the Rajya Sabha that "no Hindu can ever be a terrorist." The court emphasized that terrorism has no religion and that justice cannot be based on public perception or moral bias. This landmark verdict reignites debates on communal narratives, judicial process, and political influence in terror trials. #MalegaonBlast #PragyaThakur #AmitShah #HinduTerror #CourtVerdict #BreakingNews #IndiaPolitics #NIA #JudicialSystem #TerrorismDebate #CommunalPolitics #JusticeInIndia Also Read 2008 Malegaon Blast: Here Is The Timeline of The Case :: https://www.oneindia.com/india/2008-malegaon-blast-here-is-the-timeline-of-the-case-7816633.html?ref=DMDesc Pragya Thakur Makes Bhopal Girl Watch ‘The Kerala Story’, She Elopes With Muslim Days Later :: https://www.oneindia.com/india/pragya-thakur-makes-bhopal-girl-watch-the-kerala-story-she-elopes-with-muslim-days-later-3570005.html?ref=DMDesc BJP MP Pragya Thakur booked in Karnataka over 'keep your knives sharp' remark :: https://www.oneindia.com/india/bjp-mp-pragya-thakur-booked-in-karnataka-over-keep-your-knives-sharp-remark-3505152.html?ref=DMDesc ~HT.178~PR.274~GR.125~ED.346~

Thailand-Cambodia War | Why a cluster of Hindu Temples is the flashpoint b/w 2 Buddhist Neighbours? [Video]

Thailand-Cambodia War | Why a cluster of Hindu Temples is the flashpoint b/w 2 Buddhist Neighbours?

The Thailand-Cambodia border has erupted into deadly violence, with over 130,000 civilians displaced and at least 16 killed as military clashes intensify near the ancient temple cluster of Preah Vihear and Ta Muen Thom. The historic dispute—rooted in colonial-era maps and a 1962 ICJ ruling—has turned the Emerald Triangle into a modern warzone. With F-16s deployed and artillery pounding civilian areas, both nations refuse to de-escalate, risking a broader Southeast Asian war amid rising nationalist fervor and global concern. #Thailand #Cambodia #PreahVihear #TempleWar #BorderConflict #EmeraldTriangle #SoutheastAsia #ICJ #UNESCO #TaMuenThom #BreakingNews #ColonialDispute #HistoricTemple #MilitaryClashes #ArtilleryStrike #HeritageInDanger #ModernWarzone #F16Jets #Nationalism #DisplacementCrisis #GlobalWarning #WarThreat #CambodiaThailandWar #DangrekMountains #CulturalConflict #TempleTerritory #RefugeeCrisis #BorderWar #ICJRuling #TempleTensions Also Read Who Is Wilawan Emsawat?
