Bangladesh is observed Genocide Day yesterday in
solemn remembrance of the victims of the brutal military crackdown carried
out by Pakistani forces on the night of March 25, 1971, under the codename
Operation Searchlight. The day marks one of the darkest chapters in the
country’s history, when unarmed Bengalis – including students, teachers and
civilians – were killed across the then East Pakistan, particularly in Dhaka,
triggering widespread atrocities during the Liberation War. |
INDIA: (GOI, SWARAJYA, VISHWAMITRA, HINDU POST, INDIA TODAY).

No
permission required for INDIA, to sail
through Strait of Hormuz, says govt official:
Indian vessels are sailing through the Strait of Hormuz without needing
permission. A government official confirmed this freedom of navigation. Several
Indian LPG tankers have successfully crossed the war-hit zone. More ships are
preparing to transit. This ensures vital supplies reach India. The movement is
crucial for the country's energy needs.
The
Government urged citizens to stop
believing in rumors and avoid panic buying of LPG, Petrol etc. Delhi Minister
Manjinder Singh Sirsa has assured the
state Assembly that there is no shortage of LPG cylinders in the national
capital. Why Other states are not clarifying??
The
Union Cabinet approved the launch and implementation of the Regional
Connectivity Scheme – Modified UDAN for a period of ten years from 2026-27 to
2035-36 with a total outlay of 28,840 crore rupees.
The
Gujarat government has digitized around 20 high-demand public services as part

governance, with a focus on seamless citizen-government interaction.
Minister
for Coal and Mines G Kishan Reddy today called for accelerated exploration of
critical minerals to achieve self-reliance and strengthen India’s economic

IRAN WAR: 24/03/2026.
OIL
CRISIS HAS GRIPPED THE WORLD. Some AIR LINES enhanced Airfare. Some countries
have rationed liquid fuel. Some country prioritizes LPG,& CNG/PNG for
domestic use only. UN chief sounds alarm on consequences of prolonged Hormuz
closure.
The
Trump administration is releasing oil from the US Strategic Petroleum Reserve
as Iran’s closure of the Strait of Hormuz continues.
Through
Pakistan, USA sent its 15-point conditions for TRUCE.
An
Iranian diplomatic source described the US’s 15-point plan as “extremely
maximalist and unreasonable“, while Foreign Minister Abbas Araghchi said no
negotiations were taking place between Tehran and Washington.
Iran
has set an extremely high bar for ceasefire negotiations. The IRGC’s demands
include the closure of all U.S. bases in the Gulf, reparations for strikes on
Iran, a Hormuz transit fee arrangement, an end to strikes on Hezbollah, the
lifting of all sanctions, and the preservation of its missile program. A U.S.
official called the demands “ridiculous and unrealistic.” The two sides are not
in direct contact—messages are passing through Arab intermediaries. SOURCE: ‘IT
IS NOON N ISRAEL’—E-daily.
The
Iranian Navy issued a direct and pointed warning to the United States,
asserting that the aircraft carrier USS Abraham Lincoln is under constant
surveillance. Iranian Navy Commander Rear Admiral Shahram Irani stated that the
vessel would be targeted by the Army Navy should it navigate within the
operational range of Iran's sophisticated missile systems.
A
Missile struck the premises of Iran’s Bushehr Nuclear Power Plant last evening,
the second such incident in just over a week, amid escalating regional
hostilities. According to officials,
there was no damage to the nuclear reactor itself and no injuries to staff, and
the plant continues to operate normally with radiation levels stable.
The
White House warned that the US will “hit Iran harder than before” if Iran fails
to accept “the reality of the current moment”.
Several
Gulf countries and Jordan called on Iraq to stop attacks from its territory by
pro-Iran groups.
The
US has ordered the deployment of 2,500 troops from the 82nd Airborne Division
to the Middle East.
That’s
in addition to two Marine Expeditionary Units already en route from opposite
sides of the Pacific:
The
Tripoli Amphibious Ready Group moving in from Japan.
The
Boxer Amphibious Ready Group en route from San Diego.
Combined,
the backup troops will add between 6,000 and 7,000 marines and sailors to the
about 50,000 already positioned in the Middle East.
The
US deployments are among the largest since the Iraq war in 2003, when the US
sent 160,000 soldiers.
While
no ground operation has been ordered yet, the scale and composition of forces,
combined with public statements from US officials, suggest at least three
scenarios may be under consideration:
1.0
Seizing Kharg Island,
2.0
Clearing Iran’s coastline to reopen,
and control the Strait of Hormuz, and,
3.0
In the most consequential scenario,
securing Iran’s nuclear material.
I
think USA has no option but to set BOOTS on soil to keep its image as
superpower intact. And it happens the
sooner, the better. Break Iran, create a
KURDISTAN, and set an ARMY POST there. Force a Regime change in IRAN.
Hezbollah
claims conducted attacks on Israeli forces in southern Lebanon.
United
Nations Human Rights Council, UNHRC strongly condemned Iranian attacks
targeting several Gulf countries in the region, calling on Tehran to provide
full and immediate compensation to those affected.
