Lashkar's chief Hafiz right hand Qaiser killed in Karachi

Karanchi, (Agencies) In a significant blow to the Lashkar-e-Taiba (LeT) terrorist organization, Mufti Qaiser, often referred to as the right-hand man of LeT's chief Hafiz Saeed, was killed in Karachi. The operation took place as a part of ongoing efforts by Pakistani security forces to combat terrorism and extremism in the region.

Mufti Qaiser, a prominent figure within LeT, played a crucial role in the organization's activities and was closely associated with Hafiz Saeed, who has been linked to numerous acts of terrorism, including the 26/11 Mumbai attacks.

The operation that led to Qaiser's demise occurred in Karachi, a city that has witnessed its share of violence and terrorism-related incidents in the past. Security forces acted swiftly and decisively to neutralize the threat posed by Qaiser, who was considered a high-value target.

While Mufti Qaiser's death marks a significant success in the fight against terrorism, it also serves as a reminder of the challenges that persist in the region. Pakistani authorities remain committed to eradicating terrorist elements and maintaining stability and security.

The details surrounding the operation and the circumstances of Qaiser's death are expected to be thoroughly investigated, shedding light on potential leads and connections within the extremist network. The operation underscores the determination of Pakistani security forces to eliminate individuals who pose a threat to peace and security in the region.

This development will likely have a substantial impact on the LeT's operations and hierarchy, as Qaiser's role was pivotal within the organization. Authorities will continue their efforts to dismantle terrorist networks and ensure the safety and security of the region's residents.

India’s Highway Dream Is Costing Us a Fortune — And Nobody Is Asking Why?

There is a photograph that the Ministry of Road Transport and Highways loves to circulate. A freshly laid six-lane expressway stretches into a golden horizon. Smooth asphalt. Clean white markings. The kind of road that makes you believe, for a brief and generous moment, that India has arrived. Minister Nitin Gadkari has built an entire political identity around such photographs — and to be fair, he has earned some of it. When I began my career as a cost engineer on national highway projects in 2010

Temperature soared across the entire European continent in the latter half of June and early July. France, the Netherland and Belgium recorded 3700 excess human deaths and authorities warned that these numbers are preliminary and may even rise. People above 50 years of age accounted for larger proportion of the deaths. Several deaths are reported due to persons drowning in water bodies; those who did not know swimming also jumped in deep water to beat the heat and perished. Experts have found that the current heat waves in Europe is worst recorded in its history.

Revisiting Religious History In India: Temples, Myths, and the Politics of Memory

The contemporary struggle over religious monuments in India cannot be understood without revisiting the deeper historical questions that underlie it: the nature of “Hinduism” in the past, the evolution of temple architecture, the role of Buddhism under state patronage, and the present-day politicisation of Islamic-period monuments. Taken together, these questions reveal not only a contested past but also a deliberate project of mythmaking in the present, designed to forge a unified religious-national identity by cultivating hostility toward Muslims.
