Jalandhar: In preparation for the municipal body elections , Punjab AAP president Aman Arora held a meeting with party leaders in Jalandhar on Saturday. The meeting was attended by Punjab AAP working president Amansher Singh Sherry Kalsi, cabinet minister Kuldeep Dhaliwal, minister Mohinder Bhagat, former minister Inderbir Singh Nijjar, MLA Ajay Gupta and others. Arora said detailed discussions on municipal corporations were held, announcing that AAP would begin accepting applications from Sunday. He stressed that party workers would be given first preference in ticket allocation. “If individuals from other parties join AAP and have a clean image, they may be considered, but majority of tickets will be given to those associated with the party. We have a robust, dedicated cadre of active workers across the state, and they will be considered first,” he said. An official notification has mentioned that the elections to five municipal corporations, including Amritsar, Phagwara, Patiala, Jalandhar and Ludhiana and 42 municipal councils and nagar panchayats, would be held by the end of Dec but no specific date was given. ‘Jakhar MSP remark absurd’ Aman Arora responded sharply to Punjab BJP president Sunil Jakhar’s statement on MSP, saying that Jakhar is a senior and experienced leader who should refrain from making absurd remarks. “If he has any evidence of such irregularities, he should present it. The Punjab govt will take immediate action." Arora clarified that Punjab govt had no direct role in MSP payments.

Punjab byelections: AAP wins Dera Baba Nanak, Congress credits gangsters Gurdeep Singh Randhawa of AAP won the Dera Baba Nanak byelection, defeating Congress's Jatinder Kaur Randhawa by 5,699 votes. The win prompted accusations from Congress of AAP's association with gangsters. Previously held by Jatinder's husband, the seat saw significant voter support for Randhawa, who celebrated his victory as a triumph over nepotism and arrogance. Born on Constitution Day, AAP is a party of people: Kejriwal Aam Aadmi Party (AAP) leader Arvind Kejriwal highlighted the party's dedication to honest governance and the importance of its 'jhadu' symbol on AAP's 13th Foundation Day. Reflecting on their journey since 2012, Kejriwal emphasized the party's resilience against political challenges and underscored their commitment to the Constitution and serving the common people.
Iran on Tuesday denounced what it termed Israel's "brazen admission" of having killed former Hamas chief Ismail Haniyeh in Tehran earlier this year, accusing the country of having carried out a "heinous crime" and defending its missile-strike response. "This brazen admission marks the first time the Israeli regime has openly confessed to its responsibility for this heinous crime," said Iran's ambassador to the United Nations Amir Saeid Iravani in a letter addressed to the UN secretary-general. On Monday, Israel's defense minister Israel Katz acknowledged his country was responsible for the killing, the first time an official admission had been made. Haniyeh, who was seen as leading Hamas's negotiation efforts for a ceasefire in Gaza, was killed in a guesthouse in Tehran on July 31, reportedly by an explosive device that had been placed by Israeli operatives weeks before. Until Monday, Israel had never admitted to killing Haniyeh, but Iran and Hamas had attributed the Hamas political leader's death to the nation. In October, Iran said it fired 200 missiles at Israel, an apparent response to the killing. Israel said most of the projectiles were intercepted either by its own air defenses or by allies' air forces. On Tuesday, Iranian UN Ambassador Iravani termed Israel's killing of Haniyeh a "heinous terrorist act," adding that Katz's statement showed Iran was justified in striking Israel in retaliation. "It also reaffirms the legitimacy and legality of Iran's defensive response on 1 October 2024, as well as Iran's consistent position that the occupying and terrorist regime of Israel remains the most serious threat to regional and international peace and security." On September 27, Israel killed Hezbollah chief Hassan Nasrallah in a Beirut bombing, which was followed by the killing of Haniyeh's successor Yahya Sinwar on October 16 in Gaza. Israeli officials say Sinwar masterminded the October 7, 2023, attack by Hamas on Israel, which sparked the ongoing war in the Gaza Strip, which has killed tens of thousands and reduced much of the Palestinian territory to rubble.

On December 2nd, Skoda will open the order books for the sub-4m SUV and reveal the full costs for the Kylaq. A 10.1-inch touchscreen, an 8-inch digital driver's display, heated and ventilated front seats, automatic air conditioning, and a wireless phone charger are just a few of the many features that the Kylaq offers. Six airbags, electronic stability control (ESC), and a rear parking camera are all part of its safety package. The Kylaq, which has a 1-liter turbo-petrol engine producing 115 PS, is available from Skoda with a 6-speed manual or 6-speed torque converter automatic gearbox. The launch date is December 2. 5. Hyundai Creta EV We think Hyundai may begin releasing teasers for the electric SUV (and perhaps even show it) around December, given that the company has announced the Creta EV will ship in January 2025. The all-electric Creta will resemble its ICE (internal combustion engine) cousin in appearance, according to earlier spy photos, although it will probably have certain EV-specific modifications. Hyundai has not yet revealed information on the electric motor and battery pack of the Creta EV. Nonetheless, we anticipate that it will come with a variety of battery pack configurations with a stated range of more than 400 kilometers.
