Speculation is growing over the political future of former Tamil Nadu BJP chief K Annamalai amid reports that he may be planning a new youth focused people’s movement in the state. The initiative is being described by political sources as a grassroots platform aimed at engaging young voters and building a wider volunteer base. This comes at a time when his role within the state BJP has seen major changes, including his removal as state unit chief and absence from direct electoral responsibilities. However, there is no official confirmation from Annamalai or the BJP regarding any such move or a possible exit from the party. Political observers suggest the developments point to a broader recalibration within the NDA in Tamil Nadu, where alliance dynamics with the AIADMK have shaped leadership roles and campaign strategy.

Is Iran preparing for a new phase of drone warfare against the United States? Iranian media reports claim that the Islamic Revolutionary Guard Corps has successfully tested an advanced non-kinetic counter-drone system capable of intercepting and disrupting multiple UAVs without using explosives.

The development has renewed attention on Iran’s long-standing efforts to study and reverse-engineer foreign drone technology.
