Today at Diljit Dosanjh’s electrifying #Dilluminati concert in Guwahati, something extraordinary happened. Amidst the music and lights, Diljit paused, and in that silence, he spoke volumes. He paid a heartfelt tribute to former PM Dr. Manmohan Singh, calling him a symbol of simplicity and grace, even while holding one of the most powerful positions in the country. Diljit didn’t stop there he drew a sharp contrast, comparing today’s political fights in Lok Sabha to nursery school quarrels. The crowd erupted not just in applause but in reflection. It wasn’t just a concert. It was a moment. #DiljitDosanjh #ManmohanSingh #LeadershipMatters #DilluminatiTour

More than a dozen students fainted in Golaghat during the Independence Day programme as Minister Ajanta Neog’s speech reportedly stretched beyond an hour. Two students are reportedly in ICU. A question for the minister and the administration: Was the lengthy speech more important than the health and safety of young students standing in the heat? Who will take responsibility for the lack of preparedness at a government event? Himanta Biswa Sarma Chief Minister Assam #Independenceday

URGENT: Journalist Detained for Doing His Job! Our journalist Dilwar Hussain Majumder has been detained, and his mobile phone seized under mysterious circumstances. When we inquired, authorities failed to provide a case number or a valid reason for his detention. What happened? Today, Dilwar went to cover the APEX Bank recruitment scam and a ₹20.3 crore forgery allegation. When he tried to interview Managing Director Dambaru Saikia, the MD can be seen in the video, calling him upstairs to his office. According to Dilwar, inside the office, he was pressured to withdraw the protest —a demand he rightfully refused, stating that he is only a journalist covering the truth. Immediately after, as he stepped out, he received a call from Panbazar Thana. Upon arrival, he was detained. Why is a journalist being detained for doing his job? Is investigative journalism now a crime? Is this an open attack on press freedom? This is nothing but a blatant assault on the Fourth Pillar of Democracy. We demand his immediate release and a clear explanation from the authorities! #ReleaseDilwarMajumder #PressFreedomUnderThreat Assam Police Chief Minister Assam Hardi Singh

Manipur today..... real peace in Manipur depends on addressing the root causes—disarmament of armed groups, trust-building between communities, and a long-term political solution. Without these, it may only be a band-aid solution. What do you think?#ManipurConflict #Manipur_Violence #ManipurCrisis
