Chilling murder of Suvendu Adhikari's aide: A pre-planned political murder?

The West Bengal Assembly has been dissolved by the Governor, ending Mamata Banerjee's tenure and establishing an interim administration. This political transition coincides with the assassination of Chandranath Rath, a close aide to BJP leader Suvendu Adhikari, who was shot at point-blank range in Kolkata. The BJP alleges a targeted political revenge killing by the Trinamool Congress, while the TMC denies involvement and seeks a CBI investigation. A Special Investigation Team is currently tracking the assailants. In international news, a Chinese military court has issued suspended death sentences to two former defense ministers for bribery and corruption. Additionally, the broadcast marks the first anniversary of Operation Sindoor, India's retaliatory military strike against terror camps in Muridke and Bahawalpur following the Pahalgam attack. Former military officials discuss the strategic shift in India's defense policy and the subsequent ceasefire.
