BJP's Ravneet Bittu Escalates 'One Family One Ticket' Row Against Congress

A political controversy over the 'One Family One Ticket' policy has gained momentum in Punjab, with BJP leader Ravneet Bittu targeting the Congress party over the issue. The dispute has further deepened the internal tensions within the Punjab Congress, bringing the rivalry between state chief Amrinder Singh Raja Warring and senior leader Sukhjinder Singh Randhawa into sharper focus. Bittu's remarks have added an inter-party dimension to what was already a contentious intra-party debate. The row centers on the practice of allotting election tickets to multiple members of the same political family, a long-standing point of contention in Indian politics.

Moroccan Migrants in Spain's Ceuta Protest, Demand Asylum After Mass Border Crossing

Thousands of Moroccan migrants are staging protests in Ceuta, a Spanish territory bordering Morocco, demanding asylum. The demonstrators are among an estimated 5,000 to 8,000 migrants still present in Ceuta following a large-scale border crossing roughly two weeks prior. The mass crossing saw over 72,000 people surge into the small enclave, which has a local population of only around 80,000. The protesting migrants have expressed their strong refusal to be returned to Morocco, with some declaring they would rather die than go back. The situation has placed significant pressure on Spanish authorities to address the migrants' asylum claims.
