  • MP Ravi Kishan accused CM Yogi Adityanath of targeting him with bulldozer warnings; Gurugram police locked homes of undocumented migrants, driving about 1,000 residents to leave.
  • Enforcement Directorate raids on over three dozen locations linked to Anil Ambani triggered a fresh 5% lower circuit on Reliance Power shares as the money-laundering probe expanded.
