Mamata finds support amid rift in Oppn bloc

RJD CHIEF AND FORMER BIHAR CHIEF MINISTER, LALU PRASAD DISMISSED THE CONGRESS'S OBJECTION TO BANERJEE
PATNA: Two key constituents of the Indian National Developmental Inclusive Alliance (INDIA) backed West Bengal chief minister Mamata Banerjee on Tuesday to head the Opposition coalition, adding to the growing call for a shake-up within the bloc that did well in the Lok Sabha polls but has flagged since.
Earlier in the day, LoP Rahul Gandhi told a group of party lawmakers not to pay attention to what second-rung leaders of the INDIA group parties are saying and said that the Congress is capable of handling the issues in the alliance.
Rashtriya Janata Dal (RJD) chief and former Bihar chief minister, Lalu Prasad dismissed the Congress's objection to Banerjee and Shiv Sena (Uddhav Balasaheb Thackeray) parliamentarian Sanjay Raut indicated that his party was open to discussing the idea.
"The Congress's objection on West Bengal chief minister proposing to head the INDIA bloc has no meaning. It cannot do anything," Prasad said in Patna. Asked specifically whether the command of the INDIA bloc should be given to Banerjee, Prasad replied in the affirmative. "She should be given the charge of leading the bloc," he said.
Raut indicated that his party was open to discussing if someone outside the Congress wanted to lead the bloc. "All constituents of the alliance are willing to have a discussion on the issue," he told reporters, while reacting to Prasad's comment.

Private sector can help address urban flooding
The torrential rains across India this monsoon once again exposed the deep vulnerabilities of its cities. Similar scenes of rain-wrought havoc played out across many cities, including metropolitan Kolkata, Delhi, Mumbai, and Bengaluru. Urban centres that power India’s economy are now routinely drowning under their own weight — victims of poor planning and climate complacency. With climate-crisis-induced extreme rainfall events projected to surge by 43% by 2030, urban flooding is no longer an aberration — it's chronic crisis demanding urgent and systemic action. According to a 2025 World Bank report, India suffers average annual flood-related losses of nearly $4 billion, a figure expected to rise sharply as climate risks escalate and cities expand without adequate planning.
