Congress party’s Kargil Councillor Zakir Hussain who in a phone call with his aide had berated the Indian Army and called for breaking Ladakh in 1000 pieces was arrested on Friday by the Ladakh police. In the leaked audio clip, the Congress leader can be heard saying how the Chinese ‘outsmarted Indian Army’ and came into Galwan. He goes on to say how the Chinese army came 135 kms inside Indian territory. When the person on the other end asks how many men would have died, Zakir says that he won’t be able to tell an exact figure but says that “many died”. He says that he there must be around 200-300 people who must have been hurt. He also says that the Chinese hands moves faster than the bullets and that the Chinese were only hurt but none of their soldiers died. Zakir Hussain says that China should just take away half of the area of Ladakh

“You know what will happen next?… Ladakh will break down into 1000 pieces. Then we will bring back Article 370.” Congress leader Zakir Hussain says.

He further adds “China’s foreign minister claims that he will free Ladakh soon from India and Kashmir will be sold to Pakistan”.

Ladakh MP Jamyand Tsering Namgyal had shared the audio clip on his Twitter timeline. He asked why action has not been taken against Zakir Hussain under Section 19 Ladakh Autonomous Hill Development Council Act 1997.

He questioned the Chairman of LAHDC Feroz Ahmed Khan for not expelling Zakir from his councillor seat.

The Ladakh MP slammed the Congress party terming it the ‘Real face of traitor & anti-national ideology’

The police have arrested Zakir Hussain and an FIR has been lodged. Meanwhile the Congress has distanced itself from Zakir Hussain’s remarks and said that it is private conversation between two individuals which the party has nothing to do with. The BJP has called for slapping of sedition charges against the Congress leader.

New study on solar flares by researchers

By using Flemish supercomputers and a new combination of physical models a new study was carried out on solar flares. Plasma astrophysicists at KU Leaven have created the first self-consistent simulation of the physical processes that occur during the solar flare.

Solar flares are explosion on the surface of the Sun that releases an enormous amount of energy, equivalent to a trillion ‘Little Boy’ atom bombs exploding at the same time. Solar flares can disable radio connections and power stations on Earth in extreme cases. However, they are also at the base of stunning space weather phenomena. For example, Northern Lights, are linked to the solar flare where the photons from the light of the sun interact with earth’s magnetic field to produce stunning coloured rays.

We already know about physical processes taking place during solar flare due to satellites and telescopes. The textbook illustrations of solar flares provide a 2D representation that was so far not confirmed. The latest research has been able to confirm these illustration. Researchers at KU Leaven are now able to create such a simulation. Wenzi Ruan, as part of his doctoral research, worked on the simulation with his team of Professor Rony Keppens at the Department of Plasma Astrophysics. The researchers used the computational power of Flemish supercomputers as well as a new combination of physical models in which the microscopic effects of accelerated charged particles were taken into account in a macroscopic model.

“We converted the results of the numerical simulation into virtual observations of a solar flare.” Said Professor Rony Keppens.

“He pleaded China to help him win re-election” : Ex National Security advisor responds to Trump’s tweets about his memoir

John Bolton, an ex-National Security Advisor to the US government, in an interview responded to President Trump’s train of tweets that had extensively criticised about his memoir, “The Room Where It Happened”. Trump called Bolton a “sick puppy” and a “wacko” on Twitter and said his new memoir — set to be released next week — is “a compilation of lies and made up stories.”

Responding to these comments, Bolton said “I think it’s unbecoming of the Office of President. I think it degrades the political civil discourse in our country and [I’m] just not going to respond to him.” He added that the President wasn’t worried about people from other nations reading his book but his own. He further went on to say that this was the same man who “pleaded China’s Xi Jinping to help him win 2020’s re-election”. Many of the allegations are based on private conversations and are impossible to verify. The Trump administration has pushed back against Mr. Bolton, with the president saying the book was “made up of lies and fake stories”.

The new work – The Room Where It Happened – is due to go on sale on 23 June. In it, John Bolton paints a picture of a president whose decision-making was dominated by a desire to win the presidency again.

Former BJP MLA Pabubha Manek has tried to attack Ram Katha preacher Morari Bapu, at a temple in Dwarka. It was reported that Manek was triggered by Bapu’s comments on Lord Krishna. This took place on Thursday at the Dwarkadhish temple.

According to sources, Manek had reached the VIP portion of the temple when Bapu had been addressing Poonam Maadam, a BJP MLA for Jamnagar. When the latter was about to address the media, Manek ambushed the gathering. However, Poonam intervened and took Manek away before he could harm Morari Bapu.

This incident was caught on various TV cameras and has gone viral ever since. However, Manek claimed later that he had no intention to attack the spiritual leader and that his body language was misunderstood. According to Manek, Morari Bapu recently said in a statement that Lord Krishna failed to establish Dharma in his own city of Dwarka. He had later tendered an apology.

Notably, Bapu had gone to Dwarka to apologise for his controversial remarks against Lord Krishna that he had made in 2017. In order to keep with people’s sentiments, Morari had agreed to visit the Devbhoomi Dwarka temple to pay obeisance to the deity, in the presence of MLAs like Poonam Maadam.
