Vietnam BrahMos deal already signed, Indonesia pact in final stages

Published by Parlour News

Defence Secretary Rajesh Kumar Singh said on Saturday that a BrahMos missile deal with Vietnam had already been signed, while a similar pact involving Indonesia was in the final stages. The values of the Vietnam and Indonesia deals have not been officially disclosed yet. (AFP/File) Singh is in Singapore to attend the Shangri-La Dialogue, and his comments were in response to a question on potential buyers of the missile system. “My understanding is that with both Indonesia and with Vietnam, the deal is in the final stages that in fact, for Vietnam, I understand that it has already been signed, probably not publicly announced, but it’s already been signed,” Singh said. The Philippines, which signed a contract worth nearly USD 375 million in 2022, was the first foreign buyer of the BrahMos missile system from India. Indonesia said in March that it had entered into an agreement with India to procure the BrahMos missile system.

Sena (UBT) stages protest on Samruddhi Expressway demanding better onion prices

Published by Webster

Workers of the Shiv Sena (UBT) on Monday staged a “chakka jam” (road blockade) agitation on the Samruddhi Expressway in Maharashtra`s Chhatrapati Sambhajinagar to protest the low onion procurement rates. The agitation, which took place around 10 am at the Jambargaon interchange in Vaijapur tehsil, saw protesters burning tyres on the expressway, blocking the traffic, an official said. Speaking to reporters, Sena (UBT) leader Ambadas Danve, who led the protest, said, “The authorities did not grant permission for our agitation. But we are here to support onion farmers. We want the government to procure the crop at a good rate, and that is our only demand from the agitation.” He claimed that onions were being procured at 25 to 50 paisa per kg, which is unfair to farmers. “Onion cultivators are committing suicide. While the Central government has announced a procurement rate of Rs 12.35 per kg, no one is purchasing the produce at this rate,” Danve alleged. The police later detained Danve and the agitators and took them to Vaijapur police station, clearing the …

‘They need to maximise Bumrah’s impact by using him at key stages’: Faf du Plessis’ advice to Mumbai Indians | Cricket News

Published by Webster

3 min readApr 13, 2026 04:43 PM IST Former South Africa skipper Faf du Plessis suggested that Mumbai Indians have to let go of their over reliance on pacer Jasprit Bumrah, urging them to use the seamer at key stages of the match. Mumbai Indians, who started with a win against the Kolkata Knight Riders, are yet to win any of their other three matches with Bumrah failing to open his account in all the 4 matches. “When you look at that bowling attack, especially in high-scoring games of 250 or more, you have to assess what the rest of the attack is conceding beyond Bumrah’s four overs, which are usually very economical. That’s where Mumbai Indians need to find answers,” du Plessis told Star Sports. “They need to maximise Bumrah’s impact by using him at key stages, but it doesn’t get any easier with strong batting line-ups continuing to dominate. They will need to sit down and reassess their approach, particularly in the Powerplay, whether that involves tactical changes or bringing in different personnel,” …

In a recent interaction, Sanju revealed that when he wasn’t getting into the team in the initial stages, it left him broken. “I was too desperate knowing that my dream is so near. But was the team still trying some combinations? So, is Sanju there or not there? So, that kind of feeling played in my mind at that time. I was absolutely broken because my dream was to win the World Cup and I am not even in the XI. So, actually I was gone away for 5-6 days and I started rebuilding myself. Started preparing myself knowing you never know what the game want to give back to you,” he said during the India Today …
