A heated argument was witnessed between Congress MP Charanjit Channi from Punjab and BJP minister Ravneet Singh Bittu during the discussion on the budget in the Lok Sabha today.

Channi-Amritpal Singh was raising the issue of NSA imposed on him without naming him, he said that the MP elected by 2 lakh people has been kept in jail by imposing NSA, which is an undeclared emergency in the country.

Meanwhile, he told Ravneet Bittu that your grandfather former Chief Minister Beant Singh was martyred but he died on the day you left the Congress.

Ravneet Bittu got angry at this and stood up in the House and said, 'My grandfather was martyred not for Congress but for the country.'

On the issue of NSA raised by Channi, Bittu said that it is not on the farmers, but on those who want to divide the country and Punjab.

Man found not criminally responsible in 2023 Vancouver Chinatown festival stabbings

A B.C. Supreme Court judge has ruled that a man who stabbed three people during a Vancouver Chinatown festival in 2023 is not criminally responsible due to a mental disorder. Justice Eric Gottardi delivered the decision Friday, saying the law does not convict people for acts committed while they are mentally ill. The ruling concerns 67-year-old Blair Donnelly, whose trial heard he believed he was acting under divine instruction when he carried out the attack last September. Court testimony showed Donnelly had asked the Holy Spirit for a sign not to proceed, but said he “wanted to obey God”

Statistics Canada delays trade data release as U.S. government shutdown halts information flow

Statistics Canada says it is postponing the release of Canada’s international trade figures due to a lack of data from the United States, where a government shutdown has disrupted operations at the U.S. Census Bureau. The federal agency said it normally depends on U.S. import data to calculate Canadian export volumes but has not received updated information since the shutdown began in early October over a budget standoff in Congress. As a result, trade statistics for September, originally scheduled for publication on November 4, will be delayed. Statistics Canada said it will not be able to
