BJP and allies to retain Tripura, Meghalaya and Nagaland

  It's important to remember that exit polls are not always accurate, and the actual election results could differ from what the exit polls predict. However, if these exit polls are correct, it would be a significant development for the BJP and its allies in the northeast region of India. Winning in Tripura and Nagaland, and increasing its share of seats in Meghalaya, would give the BJP greater political influence and representation in the region.

Winning only one seat in Nagaland would also be a disappointment for the party. However, it's important to wait for the actual election results before drawing any definitive conclusions.

Russia offers joint development of Amur-1650-like submarine with 80% localization for India's Project 75

Russia is offering to jointly develop a non-nuclear submarine with India based on the Russian Amur-1650 submarine. This offer comes after Russia stated that it would not be bidding for India's P-75I diesel submarine project. The proposal includes a localization level of up to 80%. India issued an RFP to five foreign contenders, including Russia, in 2021 for the development of diesel-electric submarines under the P-75I project. The offer from Russia to jointly develop a submarine with India based on the Amur-1650 could be an alternative solution for India's P-75I project. It remains to be seen how India will respond to Russia's proposal and whether it will affect India's plans for the P-75I project. It is also unclear what the terms and conditions of the joint development agreement between Russia and India would be if it were to go forward. It seems that the P-75I project's future is uncertain after most foreign manufacturers, including Rus...
