            Assassination of head of Hezbollah may spread the war in middle east<\/span><\/strong><\/h3>\n

            \u2022\tIn summary, Ismail Haniyeh, a prominent Hamas leader, was killed in an air strike in Tehran, which Iran and Hamas attribute to Israel.
            \n\u2022\tThis assassination, which occurred shortly after Haniyeh attended a high-profile event in Iran, is expected to escalate tensions, with Iran\u2019s supreme leader vowing retaliation against Israel.
            \n\u2022\tThe killing could also jeopardize ongoing ceasefire negotiations and hostage deals related to the Gaza conflict. Israel has not yet commented on the strike, but the situation remains highly volatile, with the potential for further regional conflict.<\/p>\n

            Delhi High court on freebie culture of Delhi government<\/span><\/strong><\/h3>\n

            \u2022\tThe Delhi High Court has criticized the Delhi government’s “freebie culture” for contributing to the financial strain on the Municipal Corporation of Delhi (MCD), which has left it unable to properly maintain or upgrade city infrastructure.
            \n\u2022\tThis situation was highlighted during a hearing related to the drowning of three Civil Services aspirants in a coaching center’s basement, which the court linked to broader issues of mismanagement and neglect.
            \n\u2022\tThe court condemned both the MCD for its failure to address infrastructure issues and the police for their inadequate investigation into the incident. It also noted the lack of a functioning MCD Standing Committee, which has hampered the MCD\u2019s ability to manage and sanction significant projects.
            \n\u2022\tThe court has summoned key officials to address these concerns and emphasized the need for accountability and better oversight.<\/p>\n

            \u2022\tIn conclusion, a recent survey of coaching institutes in Patna, prompted by the drowning incident at Rau\u2019s IAS Study Circle in New Delhi, has uncovered multiple violations of safety regulations, including at the Khan GS Research Centre operated by Faizal Khan, known as “Khan Sir.”
            \n\u2022\tThe inspection revealed issues such as non-compliance with fire safety measures, lack of proper exit passages, and exceeding space limits.
            \n\u2022\tAs a result, the Khan GS Research Centre has been temporarily closed. The authorities are issuing notices to the violating institutes and have outlined penalties for non-compliance under the Bihar Coaching Institute (Control & Regulation) Act, 2010.
            \n\u2022\tThe survey will continue, with further inspections planned to ensure all coaching centres adhere to safety regulations and provide a secure environment for students.<\/p>\n
