Games that Aam Admi Party (AAP) chief and Delhi Chief Minister Arvind Kejriwal plays to strike hard bargains has been the hallmark of his politics since he entered active politics in 2013 and now he continues to follow his time tested tactics when he declared that he would walk out of the opposition parties meeting in Patna on June 23.  

Kejriwal knows that the AAP can only prosper and expand at the cost of the Congress as has been the case in Delhi and Punjab where it has been able to come to power in the last 10 years.  

The CPI on Saturday hit out at the government over the party not being invited to an all-party meeting on the situation in Manipur, saying it "exposes the callous attitude" of the home minister.

Leaders of various parties, including the BJP and the Congress, attended the all-party meeting convened by Union Home Minister Amit Shah on Saturday to discuss the prevailing situation in Manipur, where nearly 120 people have lost their lives and more than 3,000 have been injured in ethnic violence since May 3.

Congress leader Ajay Maken on Sunday accused Delhi Chief Minister Arvind Kejriwal of being with the Bharatiya Janata Party (BJP). Questioning proclamations of opposition unity by the AAP national convenor, Maken said they are nothing but a calculated move to "curry favour" with the BJP.

"Be assured, your deeds have not gone unnoticed. Your massive corruption and utilization of these ill-gotten funds to sabotage Congress in Goa, Gujarat, Punjab, Himachal, Uttarakhand, and Assam, just to help the BJP, won't be forgotten," he said in a tweet.

Aam Aadmi Party (AAP) leader and Delhi Minister Sourabh Bharadwaj on Sunday invoked "Mohabbat ki Dukan" to reach out to Congress leader Rahul Gandhi amid the ongoing tussle between the two opposition parties over the Centres Ordinance seeking to diminish Arvind Kejriwal governments powers.

"I always see that Rahul Gandhi talks about love and says that Bharatiya Janata Party spreads hate. So if Rahul Gandhi is running 'Mohabbat ki Dukan', then whosoever reaches out to him, can get that love," he said.

India is set to join the Artemis Accords and Indian Space Research Organisation (ISRO) will join hands with NASA to send a joint mission to the International Space Station (ISS), the White House said on Thursday (June 22).

“On space, we will be able to announce that India is signing the Artemis Accords, which advance a common vision for space exploration for the benefit of all humankind,” a senior administration official said hours before the meeting between Prime Minister Narendra Modi and President Joe Biden in the Oval Office. The official was quoted by Press Trust of India.
