The Congress Party has launched a sharp attack on the BJP-led central government over its proposed Transgender Persons Amendment Bill, describing it as a “regressive” move that undermines the constitutional rights of transgender persons in India. In a strongly worded statement, the party alleged that the bill seeks to strip transgender individuals of their right to self-identify, a principle upheld by the NALSA v. Union of India judgment of the Supreme Court of India. According to Congress, this move directly contradicts legal protections granted by the apex court. The party further claimed that the bill disregards India’s long-standing cultural diversity by erasing the unique identities of various transgender communities across the country. It also raised concerns over provisions that allegedly require transgender individuals to undergo medical examinations by official boards, calling the process “dehumanising and invasive.” Pic/X Additionally, Congress criticised the inclusion of criminal penalties and surveillance mechanisms in the proposed legislation, arguing that such measures lack adequate safeguards and could lead to misuse and further marginalisation of an already vulnerable community. A key point of contention for the party is the alleged lack of consultation with members of the transgender community before drafting the bill. Congress leaders stated that the legislation appears to stigmatise rather than empower transgender persons. The party emphasised that the Indian Constitution guarantees every citizen the right to life, liberty, dignity, and identity. It accused the BJP government of violating these fundamental principles and disregarding India’s historical legacy of recognising and respecting transgender communities. The Congress Party has with certainity opposed the bill and called for a more inclusive and consultative approach that safeguards the rights and dignity of transgender individuals.
24 March,2026 06:38 PM IST | Mumbai | mid-day online correspondentIn a significant boost to India’s energy logistics amid escalating geopolitical tensions, two Indian LPG carriers — Jag Vasant and Pine Gas — have successfully transited the strategically vital Strait of Hormuz and are now en route to Indian ports. The vessels, carrying a combined cargo of over 92,600 metric tonnes of liquefied petroleum gas (LPG), mark a crucial movement as global shipping faces disruptions due to the ongoing West Asia conflict. Safe Passage Through a High-Risk Maritime Corridor The successful transit of Jag Vasant and Pine Gas comes at a time when the Strait of Hormuz, a critical global energy chokepoint, has been under heightened security concerns. The narrow passage, situated between Iran and Oman, is a key route for transporting crude oil, gas, and fertilisers worldwide. Despite the volatile situation, both vessels managed to navigate the corridor safely, demonstrating the effectiveness of coordinated maritime operations and security measures. Indian Crew Ensures Smooth Navigation The two carriers had 33 and 27 Indian seafarers onboard, respectively, who played a crucial role in ensuring the safe passage of the ships through the sensitive region. Their journey highlights the resilience and expertise of Indian maritime personnel operating under challenging conditions. Following their transit, the vessels are expected to reach Indian shores between March 26 and 28, strengthening domestic LPG supplies. Part of Larger Effort to Secure Stranded Vessels According to government officials, the two tankers were among 22 Indian-flagged vessels that had been stranded in the Persian Gulf due to the escalation of conflict in West Asia. Rajesh Kumar Sinha, Special Secretary at the Ministry of Ports, Shipping and Waterways, stated that the government is working continuously to ensure safe passage for all Indian vessels and crew members in the region. He emphasised that the safety and well-being of Indian seafarers remain the top priority until all stranded ships are successfully evacuated. Previous LPG Shipments Already Reached India The latest development follows the earlier safe arrival of LPG carriers MT Shivalik and MT Nanda Devi, which together transported approximately 92,700 tonnes of LPG to India — roughly equivalent to a day’s cooking gas consumption in the country. These movements indicate a steady resumption of energy supply chains despite ongoing disruptions. PM Modi Reassures on Energy Security The successful transit comes alongside assurances from Prime Minister Narendra Modi, who recently stated in the Rajya Sabha that India has adequate crude oil reserves and strong arrangements for continuous supply. He highlighted the government’s efforts to diversify energy imports and expand strategic petroleum reserves, ensuring that India remains resilient in the face of global uncertainties. Tensions Continue to Impact Global Energy Markets The safe passage of these vessels is particularly notable given recent warnings from Iran regarding restrictions on ships linked to adversarial nations in the Strait of Hormuz. As the West Asia conflict continues to impact global trade routes and energy markets, India’s focus remains on securing vital supplies and safeguarding its maritime interests. With more vessels expected to follow, authorities are maintaining close coordination to ensure uninterrupted energy flows and the safety of Indian crews operating in high-risk zones.

24 March,2026 06:18 PM IST | New Delhi | mid-day online correspondentHarish Rana, the first person in India to be allowed passive euthanasia, passed away on Tuesday at AIIMS-Delhi after more than 13 years in coma, sources said. As reported by news agency PTI, the 31-year-old, who has been in a coma since 2013, was shifted from his Ghaziabad home to the palliative care unit at Dr BR Ambedkar Institute Rotary Cancer Hospital at the All India Institute of Medical Sciences on March 14. Three days before that, the Supreme Court, while passing a landmark judgment on March 11, allowed passive euthanasia for Harish. Harish was a BTech student at the Panjab University who fell from a fourth-floor balcony in 2013 and suffered severe head injuries. Since then, he had been in a coma, with artificial nutrition support and occasional oxygen support. His nutritional support was gradually withdrawn after he was admitted to the hospital. Earlier on March 11, a bench of Justices JB Pardiwala and KV Viswanathan directed AIIMS-Delhi to grant admission in palliative care to Rana so that the medical treatment can be withdrawn. The family of the man, in their plea to the Supreme Court had said that allowing withdrawal of artificial life support will restore his dignity after years of irreversible suffering.The Supreme Court had directed AIIMS-Delhi to ensure that life support is withdrawn with a tailored plan so that dignity is maintained. Moreover, a specialised medical team headed by Dr Seema Mishra, professor and head of the department of anaesthesia and palliative medicine, was constituted to implement the process, the first ever in India. The team comprised doctors from departments of neurosurgery, onco-anaesthesia and palliative medicine, and psychiatry. What is Passive euthanasia? Passive euthanasia is the intentional act of letting a patient die by withholding or withdrawing life support or the treatment necessary to keep him alive. Ghaziabad native Harish Rana suffered head injuries after falling from the fourth floor of his paying guest accommodation in 2013 and has been in a coma for over a decade. (With inputs from PTI)
24 March,2026 05:18 PM IST | New Delhi | mid-day online correspondentPrime Minister Narendra Modi on Tuesday urged the state governments to recognise that, regardless of the severity of the crisis, it is "our collective responsibility" to sustain India's rapid growth. He stated that this moment also presents a significant opportunity for state governments and serves as a "major test for Team India", reported IANS. Briefing the Rajya Sabha on the evolving situation in West Asia, the Prime Minister said, "In the coming times, this crisis will pose a major test for our country. To overcome this challenge, the cooperation of all states is essential. Therefore, through this House, I wish to make an appeal to all state governments." Highlighting the disproportionate impact of crises on weaker sections, he added, "During crises, the poor, labourers, and migrant workers are the most affected. Therefore, it must be ensured that the benefits of the PM Garib Kalyan Anna Yojana reach them on time. Proactive steps should be taken to address the difficulties of migrant workers. It would be very helpful if state governments set up special systems to monitor such situations." PM Modi highlights concern of black marketing; urges states to be alert According to IANS, Prime Minister also flagged concerns over black marketing and hoarding, urging states to remain alert and act swiftly on any complaints related to such practices. Calling for a unified approach, he emphasised the need for collective action under the spirit of "Team India" to sustain economic growth and navigate global uncertainty. "I would like to make one more request to all state governments. No matter how big the crisis, it is our collective responsibility to maintain India's rapid growth. For this, we must continue to take all necessary steps and implement reforms swiftly. This is also a great opportunity for state governments -- and it is a major test for Team India," he said, reported IANS. Recalling the country's response during the Covid pandemic, PM Modi said the Centre and states had together demonstrated an "excellent model of crisis management". PM Modi urges the state and central government to work as a team "Despite having governments of different political parties, testing, vaccination, and the supply of essential items were ensured through the efforts of Team India. We must continue to work with that same spirit. With the combined efforts of all state governments and the central government, the country will effectively face this serious global crisis," he said. As per IANS, the present crisis is distinct and evolving, the Prime Minister noted, "This crisis is different, and its solutions are also being devised differently. We must face every challenge with patience, restraint, and a calm mind. As we are witnessing, the situation regarding this war is changing every moment." He also urged citizens to remain "prepared for potential challenges" ahead, warning that the repercussions of the conflict could be prolonged. "There is a strong possibility that the adverse effects of this war may persist for a long time. However, I assure the people of the country -- the government is vigilant, alert, and with full seriousness, it is formulating strategies and taking every decision. The welfare of the people is paramount for us. This is our identity, this is our strength," he added, reported IANS. (Inputs from IANS)
24 March,2026 04:53 PM IST | New Delhi | mid-day online correspondentNCP (SP) Working President and MP Supriya Sule on Tuesday termed the alleged manhandling of Maharashtra Minister Shambhuraj Desai during the election of the Satara Zilla Parishad president and vice president as an “unfortunate” and “tragic” incident for the state. “It has nothing to do with the police themselves. Instead, it is the strength of the 'invisible power' lurking behind the police that forced them to act. The police would not do something like this on their own. This incident is a tragedy for Maharashtra,” she said during a press conference, reported IANS. Sule said she will write a letter to the Chief Minister on this issue. She also discussed the issue with senior BJP leaders on Monday after reports surfaced in Delhi newspapers. She described the Satara incident as the "murder of democracy", asserting that the country must run according to the Constitution of Dr Babasaheb Ambedkar. She reiterated that the police were merely instruments of an external force. "The Maharashtra police would never behave this way unless compelled by the power standing behind them," she said. Sule demands inquiry after alleged assault on Shambhuraj Desai, Makrand Patil in Maharashtra According to IANS, Sule clarified that this isn't a simple matter of "Big Brother" vs "Little Brother." She emphasised that if such "hooliganism" is allowed in a democracy, it must be fought with full strength. She warned that if it happened in Satara today, it could happen in ten other places tomorrow. She has already gathered details from Makrand Patil and plans to call Shambhuraj Desai personally. "If ministers Shambhuraj Desai and Makrand Patil were manhandled, there must be an inquiry. Both are Cabinet Ministers. Shockingly, the very government you are a part of is the one manhandling you. Panduranga (God), what days are we witnessing in Maharashtra? And that too against their own ally parties?" she asked. The Satara incident has sparked nationwide discussion. Reports suggest that Guardian Minister Shambhuraj Desai was allegedly assaulted on the street by BJP ministers. In response, MLAs from the Shiv Sena (Shinde faction) protested on the steps of the Legislature. Sule described Shambhuraj Desai's statements in the Legislature yesterday as "shocking", reported IANS. She concluded by calling for a transparent investigation. "If the 'younger brother' (ally) is being manhandled like this, we all need to engage in soul-searching. This country will not run on anyone’s whims; it will run on the Constitution. I have full faith that the Maharashtra police would not do this unless forced by that invisible power." (Inputs from IANS)

24 March,2026 03:58 PM IST | Indore | mid-day online correspondentPrime Minister Narendra Modi on Tuesday assured Parliament that India has sufficient crude oil reserves and robust mechanisms in place to ensure uninterrupted energy supply, even as the ongoing West Asia conflict continues to disrupt global markets, reported news agency ANI. Addressing the Rajya Sabha, the Prime Minister emphasised that the government has taken proactive steps over the past decade to strengthen the country’s energy security and reduce vulnerability to global disruptions, reported ANI. Strategic Petroleum Reserves Expanded Significantly PM Modi highlighted that India’s strategic petroleum reserves have been expanded to over 53 lakh metric tonnes in the last 11 years, with plans underway to increase the capacity further to more than 65 lakh metric tonnes, reported ANI. He also pointed out that India’s refining capacity has seen substantial growth, enabling the country to process larger volumes of crude oil domestically and maintain supply stability during global uncertainties. Strait of Hormuz Disruption Raises Global Concerns The Prime Minister acknowledged that disruptions in the Strait of Hormuz — one of the world’s most critical trade routes — have impacted global transportation of crude oil, gas, and fertilisers. Despite these challenges, PM Modi said India has been actively working to secure supplies from multiple sources. He noted that in recent days, several shipments of crude oil and LPG from different countries have successfully reached India, reported ANI. Diversification of Energy Imports Strengthens Resilience Underscoring the importance of diversification, PM Modi said India has expanded its energy import network from 27 countries to 41 countries over the past decade. This strategy aims to reduce dependence on any single supplier and enhance resilience against geopolitical risks. “Our effort is to ensure that oil and gas supplies reach India from wherever possible,” he said, adding that diversification has already shown positive results in maintaining steady supplies, reported ANI. Focus on Domestic Gas Distribution The government is also prioritising the expansion of domestic gas infrastructure, including piped natural gas (PNG) and LPG connections. PM Modi noted that significant progress has been made in the last decade, with further acceleration in recent years to ensure wider access to clean energy for households, reported ANI. Measures to Minimise Impact of Global Crisis The Prime Minister acknowledged that the ongoing conflict has shaken global economies and could have long-term repercussions. However, he assured that India is taking continuous steps to minimise the impact on its economy and citizens. He expressed confidence that the country’s preparedness and policy measures would help it navigate the crisis effectively. Fertiliser Supply Secured for Farmers Addressing concerns related to agriculture, PM Modi said the government has made adequate arrangements to ensure sufficient availability of fertilisers for farmers ahead of the upcoming sowing season, reported ANI. He stressed that efforts are being made to shield farmers from the adverse effects of global disruptions and ensure that agricultural productivity remains unaffected. (With inputs from ANI)
24 March,2026 03:49 PM IST | New Delhi | mid-day online correspondentA district court in Goa's Mapusa on Tuesday granted bail to Ajay Gupta, co-owner of the Birch by Romeo Lane nightclub, where a devastating fire in December last year claimed 25 lives, reported the ANI. Gupta had been arrested in New Delhi over three months ago before securing bail, his counsel confirmed. The tragic blaze occurred on December 6 at the nightclub in Goa, resulting in 25 fatalities and leaving several others injured. The incident triggered widespread outrage and prompted a detailed investigation into safety lapses, according to the ANI. Co-owners and Allegations Gupta co-owns the establishment along with Gaurav Luthra and Saurabh Luthra. According to the police, on December 7, within hours of the deadly blaze, Saurabh and Gaurav Luthra boarded a flight from Delhi to Phuket in Thailand from where they were later brought back to India by the authorities. Authorities initiated criminal proceedings against the owners, citing alleged negligence and violations of mandatory fire safety norms. According to police, a fireworks event was conducted at the venue without adequate fire safety equipment. It was also alleged that the premises lacked proper emergency exits on key floors, despite organisers being aware of the risks, as per the ANI. The case The ANI reported, the Goa Police registered a case on December 7 at the Arpora-Anjuna police station in North Goa. Charges were filed under multiple sections of the Bharatiya Nyaya Sanhita (BNS), including provisions related to negligence, endangering life, and acts carried out with common intention. In January, the Goa government dismissed Roshan Redkar and Raghuvir Bagkar from service, citing “persistent negligence” in connection with the incident. The Directorate of Panchayats, relying on findings from a magisterial inquiry, stated that irregularities at the premises were either overlooked or tacitly approved during official meetings. Irregularities in club operations The inquiry report revealed that the Birch establishment initially operated from a temporary structure and was later converted into a nightclub without the necessary approvals, including a conversion sanad and sanctioned building plans, according to the ANI. The officials had earlier described the lapses as a serious breach of public trust, raising concerns over accountability among those responsible for oversight. (with ANI inputs)
24 March,2026 03:47 PM IST | Panaji | mid-day online correspondentPrime Minister Narendra Modi on Tuesday called for a unified global push for peace and dialogue amid the ongoing West Asia conflict, warning of its serious impact on energy supplies, trade routes, and the safety of Indian citizens abroad, reported news agency ANI. Addressing the Rajya Sabha, the Prime Minister emphasised that the conflict, now in its fourth week, has triggered widespread economic and humanitarian concerns. Conflict Disrupts Energy Supplies and Trade Routes PM Modi highlighted that the war has led to a significant disruption in global energy markets, directly affecting India’s supply of essential fuels such as petrol, diesel, gas, and fertilisers, reported ANI. He noted that key maritime routes, particularly the Strait of Hormuz, have been severely impacted, with several ships stranded due to escalating tensions. This disruption has raised concerns for India’s trade and supply chains, given the region’s strategic importance. Safety of Indians in Gulf a Top Priority The Prime Minister stressed that the safety of Indian nationals remains the government’s foremost priority. He pointed out that nearly one crore Indians live and work across Gulf countries, making the situation particularly sensitive. He also expressed concern over Indian crew members aboard stranded ships in the conflict zone, underlining the risks faced by citizens both on land and at sea. Large-Scale Evacuation Efforts Underway Providing details of government action, PM Modi said that more than 3,75,000 Indians have been safely evacuated since the conflict began. This includes over 1,000 citizens brought back from Iran, many of whom were students pursuing medical education, reported ANI. He assured that the government is working with urgency and sensitivity to ensure the safe return and well-being of all affected individuals. India Engages Key Global and Regional Players The Prime Minister revealed that he has held multiple rounds of discussions with leaders from countries across West Asia, as well as with global powers including the United States. He said India remains in continuous contact with Gulf nations, Iran, and Israel to monitor developments and facilitate safe passage for Indian ships and citizens, reported ANI. PM Modi reiterated that India is actively pursuing diplomatic channels to address the crisis and reduce tensions in the region. Call for United Global Voice for Peace Emphasising the need for collective action, PM Modi urged that a strong and unified message advocating peace and dialogue should emerge from India’s Parliament and resonate globally, reported ANI. He stated that any threat to human life in the ongoing conflict is unacceptable and called on all sides to seek a peaceful resolution at the earliest. Escalating Tensions Impact Global Stability The conflict escalated following the killing of Iran’s Supreme Leader, Ayatollah Ali Khamenei, in joint military strikes by the United States and Israel on February 28. In response, Iran launched retaliatory attacks targeting assets linked to both countries across the Gulf region. These developments have disrupted international shipping lanes, destabilised energy markets, and created uncertainty in the global economy. Diplomatic Signals Emerge Amid Crisis Amid the ongoing tensions, reports suggest that backchannel diplomatic efforts may be underway. According to international media, Iran’s leadership has shown willingness to engage in negotiations with the United States, raising hopes for a potential de-escalation. As the situation continues to evolve, India’s focus remains on safeguarding its citizens, stabilising supply chains, and advocating for peace through sustained diplomatic engagement.

24 March,2026 03:30 PM IST | New Delhi | mid-day online correspondentBihar Chief Minister Nitish Kumar has been re-elected unopposed as the National President of the Janata Dal United (JD(U)), reaffirming his grip over the party’s leadership ahead of key political developments. No Contest as Nitish Kumar Secures Fourth Term With no other nominations filed, Nitish Kumar was elected unopposed after the withdrawal deadline concluded on Tuesday. This marks his fourth term as the party’s national president. The nomination process had earlier seen JD(U) Working President Sanjay Kumar Jha and several senior leaders backing Kumar’s candidature by filing his nomination papers at the party’s New Delhi office on March 19. The deadline for filing nominations was March 22, and in the absence of any challengers, the scheduled election on March 27 became unnecessary. Leadership Timeline of JD(U) The JD(U), formed in 2003 with the involvement of George Fernandes, initially had him as its first National President. He was later succeeded by Sharad Yadav, who led the party for several terms before internal differences led to a leadership shift. Nitish Kumar first assumed the presidency in 2016 after Sharad Yadav’s exit. He was re-elected in 2019 but stepped down in 2020, appointing RCP Singh as his successor. Subsequently, Rajiv Ranjan Singh took over the role in 2021. However, ahead of the 2024 Lok Sabha elections, Nitish Kumar reassumed the party’s top position on December 29, 2023. Leadership Continuity Seen as Strategic Move With his latest unopposed election, Nitish Kumar is expected to continue as JD(U) president until 2029. Political observers view this as a strategic move aimed at ensuring organisational stability and consolidating leadership within the party during a crucial political phase. Despite formally taking over the presidency years after the party’s formation, Nitish Kumar has long been regarded as the central figure in JD(U)’s decision-making and political direction. Emerging Role of Nishant Kumar In a significant development, Nitish Kumar’s son, Nishant Kumar, has recently joined the party. He is expected to play a more active role in organisational affairs, sparking discussions about generational transition within the JD(U). Recent Political Developments Nitish Kumar was also recently elected to the Rajya Sabha, further strengthening his position in national politics. His continued leadership of JD(U) is likely to play a key role in shaping the party’s strategy in the coming years. As Bihar and national politics evolve, Nitish Kumar’s reappointment signals continuity, control, and a focus on maintaining the party’s influence in an increasingly competitive political landscape.

24 March,2026 03:13 PM IST | Patna | mid-day online correspondentThe government has called an all-party meeting on the West Asia crisis on Wednesday, sources said. This comes after Prime Minister Narendra Modi's address to Parliament on the West Asia situation. The prime minister on Monday said the difficult global conditions caused by the West Asia conflict are likely to persist for a long time and called upon the nation to remain prepared and united, just as it had stood together during the COVID-19 pandemic. In a statement in the Lok Sabha, Modi addressed concerns related to the impact on fuel, fertilisers, national security and other areas in India as well as on its nationals residing in the West Asia region, detailing steps taken by the government to ensure that "ordinary families face as little trouble as possible". He said a unanimous voice on this crisis should go out to the world from India's Parliament. Reaffirming India's unwavering commitment to humanity and peace, the prime minister said dialogue and diplomacy remain the only path to resolution and every Indian effort is directed at de-escalation and cessation of hostilities. The Congress attacked Modi for not condemning the continued US-Israeli air strikes on Iran. It slammed his statement in the Lok Sabha on the West Asia crisis, calling it "a master class in self-boasts, cowardice and partisan dialogue-baazi". In his remarks, the prime minister had said West Asia is important to India as nearly one crore Indians live and work in the Gulf countries. A high number of Indian crew members work in commercial ships that sail in these seas. "Due to these varied reasons, India's concerns are naturally greater. Therefore, it is essential that a unanimous and united voice from India's Parliament on this crisis reaches the world," he had said.
