Thursday, 15 May 2025 In Uttar Pradesh's Bundelkhand, farmers in Jalaun have successfully revived the 81km-long Noon river, which had dried up due to encroachments and poor rainfall. This community-led effort, praised by PM Modi, involved voluntary labor to restore the river's drainage basin. The revival is expected to benefit over 15,350 farmers by providing a crucial irrigation source.

India has reportedly declined a U.S. offer to buy F-35 stealth fighter jets, according to Bloomberg. The offer was made by President Trump during Prime Minister Modi’s visit to Washington in February. Instead of purchasing American jets, India is prioritizing joint defense manufacturing initiatives and has shown greater interest in the Russian Su-57, especially after its debut at Aero India.
The Indian Ministry of External Affairs downplayed Bloomberg’s report, confirming no formal talks on the F-35 have taken place yet. Meanwhile, the U.S. has slapped 25% tariffs on Indian imports due to a failed trade deal, escalating tensions. Trump also announced India would face a penalty over its continued defense ties with Russia. This deepening rift could impact U.S.-India defense cooperation and reshape future arms procurement.
