INDIA Alliance: Akhilesh Yadav lashes out at Congress over seat-sharing

There seems to be a rift in the INDIA alliance as Samajwadi Party Chief Akhilesh Yadav on October 19 lashed out at Congress for not sharing seats for the Madhya Pradesh assembly elections and said that he would not have trusted the Congress if he had known that Congress leaders would betray them. “The state chief has no authority. He was not there in the meeting held at Patna, Mumbai. What does he know about the INDIA alliance? These people from Congress are involved with the BJP. If I had known that the alliance is not on the state level then I would not have sent SP leaders to Digvijaya Singh...I would not have trusted them if I had known that people from Congress would betray us...,” said Akhilesh Yadav. Notably, the Samajwadi Party has released its second list of candidates for the upcoming Madhya Pradesh assembly polls on October 18. The party has declared the names of a total of 22 candidates in the second list.

Israel-Palestine conflict: BJP backs Israel, Congress stands with Palestine

Israel-Palestine conflict: BJP backs Israel, Congress stands with Palestine

A day after condemning the “brutal attack” on Israel by the Palestinian militant group Hamas, Congress on October 09 extended its support for Palestinians. Congress Working Committee called for an “immediate cease-fire” between Israeli forces and Hamas militant group. The resolution passed by Congress supported the rights of the Palestinian people. However, Prime Minister Narendra Modi extended his solidarity with Israel at this difficult hour. Congress leader Rashid Alvi raised his concern over PM Modi’s stand with Israel. Earlier on Oct 09, Congress appeared cautious and avoided questioning the Govt on its stand in relation to the fresh conflict. Meanwhile, BJP leader Rajyavardhan Singh Rathore cornered Congress and said that problem with Congress is that it moves apart from the country’s ideas. According to Israeli local media cited by The Times of Israel, the death toll in Israel has jumped to 800. According to the Israeli government, over 2,400 people have been injured as well, according to Hebrew media reports.
