New Delhi, Aug 11: Popular Front of India Chairman E Abubacker expressed disappointment over the affidavit filed by Uttar Pradesh Shia Waqf Board which supported building temple at the site where Babri Masjid was demolished.

It should be suspected that Sangh Pawriwar is pressurizing corrupt individuals in the Muslim community to destroy Babri Masjid cause and the fight for justice. Some individuals holding key positions of the UP ShiaWaqf Board have come up with the affidavit so that they can win the favour of the ruling BJP, which has already restarted polarizing campaigns in the name of Rama Janmabhoomi. But in doing so, UP Shia Waqf Board has betrayed Indian Muslim community and their decades-long battle for justice for Babri in return for petty personal gains.

By the said affidavit, the board has practically chosen to side with those who demolished the centuries-old Babri Masjid in 1992 leaving a permanent scar in the face of secular democratic India. These individuals who sold out their integrity do not have any support left in the Muslim community, whether they are of Sunni, Shia or any other sects.

At the same time, the affidavit does not have any legal significance to the case since the board has not been part of the case. As become evident from the statement of Subramanian Swamy, it only caters to the ongoing Hindutwapropaganda.

Commenting on Subramanian Swami’s response, Chairman said“unlike what Swami believes, this is not a ‘God sent’solution but a Satan sent conspiracy.Indian Muslims will continue their legal battle at any cost until justice is done to Babri Majsid”.

An Indian Air Force (IAF) Tejas fighter jet crashed on Friday, November 21, afternoon during its aerial demonstration at the Dubai Air Show, plunging to the ground at around 2:10 pm local time while performing a manoeuvre before thousands of spectators.

The IAF confirmed the incident, stating that a Tejas aircraft participating in the show had crashed and that further details were being gathered. An Air Force spokesperson said more information would be shared after initial assessments.

The crash sent thick black smoke billowing into the sky near the airport, causing panic among visitors, including families and children who had gathered to watch the display. Authorities have not yet confirmed whether the pilot managed to eject before the aircraft went down. Emergency response teams rushed to the scene, and officials have not released information on casualties or damage so far.

The Tejas is a 4.5-generation, multi-role fighter aircraft developed indigenously by Hindustan Aeronautics Limited (HAL). Designed for versatility, it is capable of offensive air support, close combat, ground attack missions and maritime operations. The aircraft family includes single-seat fighters and twin-seat trainers for both the Air Force and Navy.

HAL describes the latest version, the LCA Mk1A, as the most advanced in the series, featuring an AESA radar, an upgraded electronic warfare suite with radar-warning and self-protection jamming, smart multifunction displays, a digital map generator, a combined interrogator–transponder system and a modern radio altimeter. These enhancements significantly improve the aircraft’s combat capability and survivability.

Further updates from IAF and UAE authorities are awaited.
