Rahul Gandhi To Hold Meeting With Telangana Leaders In Delhi Today

New Delhi: Congress leader Rahul Gandhi will meet party leaders of Telangana today in the evening and discuss the political situation prevailing along with brainstorming on the Assembly elections scheduled next year in the state, said the sources.

Discussion over the paddy procurement issue will also be on the top agenda of the meeting.

The meeting with the senior leaders of the party will take place at Rahul Gandhi’s residence.

This is Rahul Gandhi’s second meeting with the Telangana party leaders in the last seven days. The meeting comes at a time when state Chief Minister K Chandrashekhar Rao is nourishing his national ambitions and calling on the parties to form a non-BJP and non-Congress alliance for the 2024 Lok Sabha polls.

Notably, in the last Assembly elections in 2018 in Telangana, Congress had an alliance with the Telugu Desam Party, however, could not stop the return of the Telangana Rashtra Samithi’s KCR government.

Earlier last month, Telangana Congress chief Revanth Reddy dismissed possibilities of forging an alliance with the TRS party and said the grand old party will form an alliance with any party but KCR’s as “he is not trustworthy”.

“Congress would not forge an alliance with KCR and his party TRS at any cost because he is not trustworthy. We have seen him in 2004, 2009, 2014 and 2019. We can trust any other leader or party, but not KCR and TRS,” Mr Reddy told news agency ANI.

Imran Khan No Longer Prime Minister, Says Pakistan Government In Notification

Tejas Joshi

Islamabad: In a notification issued on late Sunday, the Pakistan government stated that Imran Khan no longer holds the position of prime minister.  

Signed by Additional Secretary Eazaz A. Dar, the notification read: “Consequent upon dissolution of the National Assembly by the President of Pakistan, in terms of Article 58(1) read with Article 48(1) of the Constitution of the Islamic Republic of Pakistan… Mr Imran Ahmad Khan Niazi ceased to hold the Office of the Prime Minister of Pakistan, with immediate effect.”

Imran Khan, after this notification, will not be eligible to issue any order in the country.

The Pakistani National Assembly today witnessed unprecedented chaos as Deputy Speaker rejected the No-confidence motion against Khan citing ‘national security’. Khan, on the other hand, asked the President to dissolve assemblies and announce fresh polls. 

The opposition, protesting inside the parliament, said it will go to the supreme court against the “unconstitutional” process. According to reports, the apex court of Pakistan has taken a suo motu cognizance of the Sunday’s happenings in Pakistan parliament. 

This notification by the Pakistani government is yet another twist in the political slugfest which began after the opposition moved a no-confidence motion against Imran Khan. Khan, in a desperate attempt to save power, has blamed ‘foreign hand’ behind the conspiracy to oust him.
