Rumblings within the Congress have grown over the last year. Congress leaders are constantly in clash over the party's political decline.

The Congress Working Committee members assembled for an online meeting today and one of the main agenda was deciding the leadership of the 135-year-old outfit.

This comes after some senior Congress leaders wrote a letter to Sonia Gandhi, asking for some "structural reforms" and a full-time, effective leadership.

Parts of Rajasthan, Gujarat, Madhya Pradesh and Maharashtra's Vidarbha region are set to experience an increased rainfall activity over the weekend.

According to the India Meteorological Department (IMD), the well-marked low pressure area currently lies over east Madhya Pradesh and adjoining north Chhattisgarh, and is very likely to move nearly westwards across west Madhya Pradesh during the next 3-4 days.

Under the combined influence of these meteorological conditions, widespread rainfall with isolated heavy to very heavy falls are very likely over Gujarat and its neighbouring central Indian states until Sunday, August 23.

In view of this prediction, the IMD has placed the entire state—the Gujarat region as well as the Saurashtra & Kutch subdivision—under orange alert on both Saturday and Sunday, urging its residents to ‘be prepared’ for rough weather conditions. However, the advisory level may very well rise to a red warning, which instructs people to ‘take action’ and protect themselves from the downpour.

Within the state, the districts of Aravalli, Mahisagar, Surendranagar, and the UT of Diu have been placed under red warning on Saturday, while Ahmedabad, Banaskantha, Mehsana, Sabarkantha, Gandhinagar, Kheda, Panchmahal, and Dohad will be under orange alert.

Prime Minister Narendra Modi laid the foundation stone for the Ram temple yesterday.

The path for the construction of a Ram temple in Ayodhya was cleared by the Supreme Court in November 2019, but this is an issue that was on top of RSS-BJP's agenda during the 1980s.

The Rashtirya Swayamsevak Sangh (RSS), the Vishwa Hindu Parishad, the BJP, the Bajrang Dal and associated outfits pooled in their organisational strength to make the Ram Janmabhoomi movement a socio-political campaign.

Here are a few RSS-BJP-VHP leaders, religious leaders and other common names associated with the movement.

The announcement was not taken very seriously until Kim Kardashian confirmed the news by retweeting with an American flag.

West’s decision to run is something of a late registration. He would have to register as an independent in several states to make his way to the ballot.
