Lakshmi Parvathi has alleged that the law and order situation in Andhra Pradesh has deteriorated under the coalition government, claiming that people across all sections are facing increasing hardship. Addressing the media at the party’s central office in Tadepalli on Thursday (July 9, 2026), she accused the TDP-led NDA government of misusing the police machinery to target political opponents. She alleged that those questioning the government were being falsely implicated in criminal cases, while ruling party leaders and workers escaped action despite serious allegations against them. Ms. Parvathi claimed the police had become a political tool to suppress dissent, alleging that fabricated evidence was being used to book critics under serious charges and send them to judicial remand. Referring to the recent incident in Anantapur, as well as the cases of Gade Sai Krishna, Kranti Kumar, Gangamma, Tiruputamma and Kalavati, she said these reflected the declining law and order situation in the State.

NHIDCL sets December target for completion of less trouble-prone highway to Manipur capital

NHIDCL sets December target for completion of less trouble-prone highway to Manipur capital

Published by Parlour News

National Highway-37 becomes almost unnavigable during the rainy season every year, but it has proved to be a safer option than NH-2 whenever Manipur is on the boil. | Photo Credit: – In peacetime, Manipur prefers to travel or transport goods on National Highway-2, a lifeline that connects its capital Imphal to the rest of the country through Nagaland to the north. During periods of conflict, however, the State reluctantly falls back on the other lifeline—the more arduous National Highway-37, connecting Imphal and Assam’s Silchar to the southwest via the interstate border town of Jiribam. NH-37 becomes almost unnavigable during the rainy season every year, but it has been a safer option than NH-2 whenever Manipur is on the boil. Inevitably, NH-37 gained strategic importance after the Kuki-Meitei ethnic conflict that erupted in May 2023, followed by the Kuki-Naga hostility, which led to indefinite blockades along the hilly stretch of NH-2. The State’s fate, partly tied to the condition of its highways, is expected to change after December 2026, the target set by the National …

Once a target of racist chants, Mexico’s Quiñones is now hero-worshipped

Once a target of racist chants, Mexico’s Quiñones is now hero-worshipped

Published by Webster

5 min readJul 1, 2026 11:34 AM IST The delirious Azteca crowd chanted “Quiñones, Quiñones…” They showered beer and flung cardboard sombreros at their newfound object of affection, Julian Quiñones. The forward, drenching in the adulation after putting Mexico in front before setting up the second in the Ecuador rout, asked them to amplify the volume. The chant must have been music to his ears, for two years ago, the Mexican city of Guadalajara had shouted his name too, but with racial slurs prefixed. He is a Colombian by birth, his parents of Afro-Colombian ancestry. He became a naturalised Mexican citizen in 2023. But the past clung on like an invisible sword. He knows he has to prove that he is Mexican every time he steps onto the field; he knows he will be judged by his race and origins when he fails. So, he simply ensures that he gives little chance for them to dig up his past. He scored the first goal of the World Cup, a devilish strike against South Africa; in …
