Prashant Kishor SLAMS Raj Thackeray For Anti-Bihari Remark, Dares BJP-Congress Over Language Silence [Video]

Prashant Kishor SLAMS Raj Thackeray For Anti-Bihari Remark, Dares BJP-Congress Over Language Silence

Prashant Kishor has launched a blistering attack on Maharashtra Navnirman Sena (MNS) chief Raj Thackeray after his controversial “slap those who don’t speak Marathi” remark. Calling Thackeray a “lumpen element” hiding in Mumbai while targeting poor migrants, Kishor slammed both BJP and Congress for their deafening silence on the issue. In a scathing rebuttal, Kishor reminded Thackeray that Maharashtra doesn’t belong to his father and warned against making heroes out of violent politics. Kishor also exposed the political convenience behind this rhetoric — just ahead of the BMC elections. He demanded Tejashwi Yadav and opposition leaders break their silence and stand up for Hindi-speaking migrants. The issue is rapidly snowb@lling into a national flashpoint on regional identity, governance, and electoral desperation. #PrashantKishor #RajThackeray #LanguageRow #BMC2025 #MNS #HindiSpeakers #BJP #Congress #TejashwiYadav #ShivSena #UddhavThackeray #MarathiPolitics #BihariMigrants #MumbaiPolitics #RegionalismDebate #PoliticalViolence #Elections2025 #MigrantRights #IndiaPolitics #PKSlamsRaj Also Read Bihar Assembly Elections 2025: Prashant Kishor Promises Rs 2000 To Every Senior Citizen :: https://www.oneindia.com/india/bihar-assembly-elections-2025-prashant-kishor-promises-rs-2000-to-every-senior-citizen-7787469.html?ref=DMDesc Spend One Night In Village: Prashant Kishor Challenges Rahul Gandhi's Commitment To Bihar :: https://www.oneindia.com/india/spend-one-night-in-village-prashant-kishor-challenges-rahul-gandhis-commitment-to-bihar-011-7783959.html?ref=DMDesc Prashant Kishor's Jan Suraaj Party Gets 'School Bag' Election Symbol :: https://www.oneindia.com/india/prashant-kishors-jan-suraaj-party-gets-school-bag-symbol-election-symbol-7783181.html?ref=DMDesc ~HT.410~ED.420~GR.124~

Can Pope Leo Xiv Lose US Citizenship After Becoming Vatican’s American-Born Head Of State?US-Vatican [Video]

Can Pope Leo Xiv Lose US Citizenship After Becoming Vatican’s American-Born Head Of State?US-Vatican

Pope Leo XIV, born Robert Prevost in Chicago, has become the first U.S.-born pontiff and now leads both the Holy See and Vatican City. His dual role as an American citizen and a foreign head of state raises legal and constitutional questions. While U.S. law allows for “active review” of such cases, experts say Leo’s citizenship is unlikely to be revoked unless he explicitly renounces it. The Vatican is a sovereign nation, and Leo holds dual citizenship with Peru as well. The U.S. State Department declined comment on his status. #PopeLeoXIV #VaticanCity #USCitizenship #RobertPrevost #AmericanPope #HolySee #CatholicChurch #PapalElection #DualCitizenship #VaticanNews #USLaw #CitizenshipReview #PopeAndPolitics #ChurchAndState #PeterSpiro #PapalHistory #PeruCitizenship #ConstitutionalLaw #USStateDepartment #InternationalLaw ~HT.410~ED.102~GR.122~

Canada Wildfire Breaking: Worst Wildfire Crisis Forces 33,000 to Flee; 2 Killed as Smoke Chokes U.S

Canada is facing a wildfire catastrophe of historic proportions. Blazes sweeping across Manitoba, Saskatchewan, and Alberta have forced over 33,000 people to flee their homes, marking one of the largest evacuations in the country’s history. In Manitoba, two civilians were tragically killed—marking the first such deaths in recent memory—while dozens of wildfires burned out of control across the region. With states of emergency declared, the Canadian Armed Forces have been deployed to assist evacuations, including Indigenous communities directly threatened by the flames. #CanadaWildfire #SaskatchewanFires #ManitobaEmergency #LaRongeWildfire #ForestFiresCanada #WildfireCanada #CanadaFires #WildfireCrisis #CanadaEvacuation #CanadaSmoke #WildfireNews #CanadaBurning #BreakingWildfireNews #CanadaUnderFire #WildfireEmergency

King Charles Visits Canada in Rebuke of Trump’s Annexation Talk | Throne Speech Expected to Shock US

King Charles has returned to Canada amid rising tensions between Prime Minister Mark Carney and U.S. President Donald Trump, who recently renewed calls to annex Canada as the 51st state. Charles was welcomed with crowds and ceremony in Ottawa, where he will open Canada’s new legislature and deliver a sovereignty-focused throne speech. As Trump’s aggressive trade tariffs strain relations, the King’s visit is seen as a symbolic stance for Canada’s constitutional independence. The royal visit includes meetings with Indigenous leaders, military honors, and public engagements across Ottawa. #KingCharles #Canada #MarkCarney #Trump #RoyalVisit #Ottawa #CanadianSovereignty #ThroneSpeech #BritishMonarch #USCanadaRelations #AnnexationTalk #ConstitutionalMonarchy #IndigenousLeaders #TrumpVsCarney #RoyalNews #GlobalPolitics #TrumpTariffs #TradeTensions #Canada51stState #RoyalFamily #ThroneAddress #CanadaPolitics #BreakingNews #StreetHockey #MilitaryHonors #QueenCamilla #TreePlanting #FarmersMarket #UKCanada #RoyalSymbolism Also Read Meet Anita Anand, Canada's New Foreign Minister With Indian Origin :: https://www.oneindia.com/international/who-is-anita-anand-canadas-new-foreign-minister-with-indian-origin-4152791.html?ref=DMDesc Trump and Carney Face Off in Oval Office Over Trade War and Tariffs :: https://www.oneindia.com/international/trump-carney-faceoff-oval-office-trade-war-011-4145443.html?ref=DMDesc Jagmeet Singh Steps Down After NDP's Worst-Ever Show In Canadian Polls :: https://www.oneindia.com/international/jagmeet-singh-steps-down-after-ndps-worst-ever-show-in-canadian-polls-4138151.html?ref=DMDesc
