New Delhi, Dec 12: Union Health Minister Dr. Harsh Vardhan attended the 'Cancer Awareness Program' organised by the Centre for Indian studies-Kuwait via video conferencing on Friday and said there exists great scope for both countries to increase collaboration in the field of health and medicine.

Vardhan tweeted, Indian diaspora has been the torchbearer of humanitarian principles propagating our long-held belief - 'Whole World is One Family.'

"I was pleased to address members of our diaspora in Kuwait at the 'Cancer Awareness Program' organised by the Centre for Indian studies-Kuwait, via VC," he added.

"I appreciated the organisers for their noble endeavours which resonate with preachings of our ancient scriptures, the Upanishads, about a world free of illness with peace and prosperity prevailing all around," Vardhan tweeted.

Under the dynamic leadership of Prime Minister Narendra Modi, India has further strengthened its deep-rooted ties with Kuwait, the Union Health Minister stated.

"There is great scope for both countries to increase collaboration in the field of health and medicine," Vardhan tweeted.

Will end Karnataka leadership confusion after talks with top leaders: Kharge

News Network

November 27,2025

Congress president Mallikarjun Kharge on Thursday announced that he will convene a high-level meeting in New Delhi with senior leaders — including Rahul Gandhi, Karnataka Chief Minister Siddaramaiah and Deputy Chief Minister D.K. Shivakumar — to resolve the escalating leadership turmoil in Karnataka and “put an end to the confusion.”

Kharge said the discussions would focus on the way forward for the ruling party, as rumours of a possible leadership change continue to swirl. The speculation has intensified after the Congress government crossed the halfway mark of its five-year term on November 20, reviving talk of an alleged 2023 “power-sharing agreement” between Siddaramaiah and Shivakumar.

“After reaching Delhi, I will call three or four important leaders and hold discussions. Once we talk, we will decide how to move ahead and end this confusion,” Kharge told reporters in Bengaluru, according to PTI.

When asked specifically about calling Siddaramaiah and Shivakumar to Delhi, he responded: “Certainly, we should call them. We will discuss with them and settle the issue.”

He confirmed that Rahul Gandhi, the Chief Minister, the Deputy Chief Minister and other senior members would be part of the deliberations. “After discussing with everyone, a decision will be made,” he said.

Meanwhile, Siddaramaiah held a separate strategy meeting at his Bengaluru residence with ministers and leaders seen as his close confidants, including G. Parameshwara, Satish Jarkiholi, H.C. Mahadevappa, K. Venkatesh and K.N. Rajanna.
Signalling calm, the Chief Minister told reporters, “Will go to Delhi if the high command calls.”

Shivakumar echoed a similar stance, saying he too would head to the national capital if summoned by the party leadership.
