Uttarakhand: Kali river crosses danger mark in Pithoragarh, alert issued

Punjab’s special Assembly session witnessed intense political drama as the AAP government moved a confidence motion to prove its majority. While 89 AAP MLAs were present, BJP boycotted the session and Congress staged a walkout after heated exchanges. Tensions escalated when Congress demanded breath analyser and dope tests for all MLAs, even entering the Speaker’s office to press the demand. Meanwhile, BJP held a parallel “People’s Assembly” outside. The developments highlight deepening political friction in the state, with protests, disruptions, and counter-allegations overshadowing legislative proceedings and turning the trust vote into a full-blown political showdown.
