They waited, waited, waited and then decided not to wait anymore. A group of villagers in Uttar Pradesh's Ghazipur district, tired of waiting for local representatives to fulfill their promises to get a bridge built, have taken matters into their own hands. An 108-ft bridge, paid for by the villagers, is now coming up on the Magai river. The villagers have been pooling money to arrange the required funds of nearly Rs 1 crore. They said they have repeatedly raised their demand for the bridge, but have only received promises. The foundation stone for the bridge was laid in February last year and work is now in full swing. Administrative questions, however, remain. The bridge is being constructed without the administration's permission and in that case, a big question is how accountability would be fixed if there is an accident later. Local resident Rajesh Singh Yadav, who has worked with the village headman, said the bridge's construction is halfway done. "From Indepen...

Kerala 's ruling Left front and the main opposition, the Congress, have united to celebrate actor Mohanlal's new movie, ' L2: Empuraan ', which they say "exposes the Sangh agenda". The movie - the second part of the planned 'Lucifer' trilogy and which refers, indirectly, to the 2002 Gujarat riots and examines the misuse of central investigative agencies - premiered Thursday, and grossed Rs 22 crore in one day, the most ever by any Malayalam film in the state. But, away from the theatres, there was opening day drama after right-wing groups targeted the movie, with one calling it "anti-Hindu" and another "an overt Hindu-bashing propaganda film". However, the Left and Congress, unlikely allies, pushed back, praising the portrayal of "villainous" right-wing politics. The Congress' Kerala youth unit chief and the Palakkad MLA Rahul Mamkoottathil praised ' Empuraan ' as a "pan-Indian film" and said the h...

After massive searches during the last four days, firing exchanges started again on Thursday between the joint forces and the terrorists in Jammu and Kashmir's Kathua district. Officials said, "Contact has been re-established with militants in the forest area of Sufain under Police Station Rajbagh in Kathua.

Jailed MP from Jammu and Kashmir, Engineer Rashid, attended the Parliament session amid heavy police security today after getting leave from the Delhi High Court to attend the ongoing budget session.

India on Tuesday slammed Pakistan for its "repeated references" to Jammu and Kashmir at a United Nations debate on peacekeeping reforms. Speaking at the Security Council, India's Permanent Representative to the UN, Ambassador Parvathaneni Harish, said the remarks were "unwarranted" and reiterated that the region "was, is, and will always be an integral part of India." "India is compelled to note that the delegate of Pakistan has yet again resorted to unwarranted remarks on the Indian union territory of Jammu and Kashmir. Such repeated references neither validate their illegal claims nor justify their state-sponsored cross-border terrorism," Mr Harish said. He advised Pakistan not to try to "divert" the attention of the forum to drive its "parochial and divisive agenda".

The injustice done by the West at the UN over Kashmir was highlighted at The Raisina Dialogue - a global multilateral conference held in New Delhi each year. External Affairs Minister S Jaishankar did not mince his words as he showed how the United Nations had faltered in its understanding and approach to the issue.

Speaking about Kashmir at the forum today, Mr Jaishankar highlighted the selective approach and application of global rules on issues pertaining to sovereignty and territorial integrity. As he raised concerns over historical injusti...
