Mysuru Dasara inauguration row: BJP says Banu Mushtaq's 'faith uncertain'; minister hits back
Monday, 25 August 2025 () Karnataka's decision to have Banu Mushtaq inaugurate Mysuru Dasara has sparked controversy, with BJP leaders questioning the appropriateness of someone with uncertain faith leading a Hindu religious ceremony.

Seventeen years after the deadly 2008 Malegaon blast rocked Maharashtra, a special NIA court in Mumbai has acquitted all seven accused — including BJP MP Pragya Singh Thakur and Lt Col Prasad Purohit — citing lack of concrete evidence. The judgment came just one day after Union Home Minister Amit Shah told the Rajya Sabha that "no Hindu can ever be a terrorist." The court emphasized that terrorism has no religion and that justice cannot be based on public perception or moral bias. This landmark verdict reignites debates on communal narratives, judicial process, and political influence in terror trials.
