National news headlines in English for school assembly

  1. Intense discussions are in progress regarding Narendra Modi’s anticipated third term. BJP leaders Amit Shah and Rajnath Singh held a meeting at the president JP Nadda’s residence in Delhi. All BJP MPs and CMs have been summoned to Delhi for a meeting at 10:30 am on Friday. Prime Minister Narendra Modi has submitted his resignation to President Droupadi Murmu and is expected to take the oath for his third term, likely on Sunday, June 9 after receiving assurances of support from coalition partners. Wednesday was marked by significant negotiations and key meetings held by the Congress-led INDIA alliance and the BJP-led NDA, as no single party secured a clear mandate to form the government independently.
  2. Delhi Water Minister Atishi on Thursday hailed the Supreme Court’s order directing Himachal Pradesh to release surplus water to the national capital, calling it a victory for the city’s residents. The Supreme Court instructed the Himachal Pradesh government to release 137 cusecs of surplus water to Delhi, which is currently facing a water crisis.
  3. India ranked lower than 150 countries in terms of women’s representation in parliament, according to data from IPU-Parline, a global database on national parliaments. In the 2024 Lok Sabha elections, 74 women MPs were elected, making up 13.6 per cent of the total members in parliament.
  4. With 99 seats in the Lok Sabha following a strong performance by the INDIA bloc in the general elections, the Congress party is now eligible to claim the position of Leader of the Opposition in parliament. Consequently, there is increasing demand for Rahul Gandhi to assume this prestigious role. Rahul Gandhi, who resigned as Congress president following the party’s defeat in the 2019 Lok Sabha elections, is being credited by the party for its remarkable comeback in 2024.
  5. The Bharatiya Janata Party (BJP) is poised to form its third consecutive government at the Centre, with Prime Minister Narendra Modi expected to take the oath for his third term on June 8. However, with 240 seats in the 543-member House, the party fell short of achieving a hat-trick of single-party majorities for JP Nadda’s leadership. The BJP would have secured 272 seats with an additional 609,639 votes. These votes are distributed across 32 seats in various states and Union territories, where BJP candidates lost to the winners.

South Korea, India, the United States, Japan, and the European Union (EU) have allied to collaborate on building a resilient supply chain in the biopharmaceutical sector, according to the South Korean presidential office in Seoul on Thursday. The inaugural meeting of the Biopharmaceutical Alliance took place in San Diego during the Bio International Convention 2024, the world’s largest biopharmaceutical exhibition. The event saw participation from government officials and representatives from bio and pharmaceutical companies from the member countries, as reported by South Korea’s Yonhap news agency.
  5. Millions are at risk of heat stroke as the Haj pilgrimage coincides with Mecca’s hottest month, with elderly pilgrims and those with chronic illnesses being the most vulnerable. This month, millions of Muslims will undertake the Haj pilgrimage, but the scorching temperatures in Mecca have raised concerns about a potential surge in heat-related illnesses among the pilgrims. Haj typically attracts over two million Muslims from around the globe. This year, the pilgrimage is scheduled to take place from June 14 to June 19. During this period, temperatures in Mecca can soar above 50 degrees Celsius, posing a significant health risk to pilgrims, especially older adults and those with pre-existing health conditions.
