**New Delhi, July 21, 2025** – India is closely following developments in Bangladesh after a devastating air force jet crash at Milestone School and College in Dhaka earlier today. The crash of the Bangladesh Air Force F-7 BGI jet resulted in the tragic deaths of at least 19 people, the majority of whom were children, and left over 70 injured. A national day of mourning has been declared in Bangladesh.
Meanwhile, back in India, Prime Minister Narendra Modi inaugurated the Monsoon Session of Parliament with celebratory remarks, touting achievements like Operation Sindoor and advancements in national defence and space programs. However, the session quickly devolved into disarray, with the Lok Sabha adjourned amid fierce opposition protests regarding the recent Pahalgam terror attack and other pressing issues. Despite the turbulence in the Lok Sabha, the Rajya Sabha managed to pass significant legislation, including the Bills of Lading Bill, 2025.
The nation also mourns the passing of veteran CPI(M) leader and former Kerala Chief Minister V.S. Achuthanandan at the age of 101. A founding member of the party, Achuthanandan was widely respected for his unwavering anti-corruption stance and commitment to leftist ideals.
