Actress Ranya Rao and her co-accused Tarun Raju were granted default bail by a Bengaluru court after the DRI failed to file a chargesheet in a gold smuggling case . However, Ranya remains in custody under a separate preventive detention law for repeat offenders.
In a major move, Pakistan promoted its army chief General Asim Munir to Field Marshal following India's precision strikes under Operation Sindoor. This elevation mirrors a rare military honour not bestowed since Ayub Khan in 1959.
Indian markets dropped sharply, with Nifty50 falling below 24,700 points amid weak global cues and profit-booking. Experts cited delays in the India-US trade deal and foreign investor withdrawals as key factors.
