MUMBAI: Speaking at the Shahar Banaras event organised by News Nation Network, Union Minister of Human Resource Development Mr. Ramesh Pokhriyal 'Nishank' said that the Modi government would not allow 'hooliganism' in the educational campuses in the country.
Union Minister Prahlad Singh Patel was another present as the guest at the event. The conclave was organised to mark and celebrate the spirit of Varanasi city.
Speaking at the event, Pokhriyal said there were some elements who were trying to destroy the atmosphere of learning at our education campuses. However, these elements will not be allowed to prosper. He said parents spend a lot to send their wards to the best possible educational institutes. The Union Minister assured these parents that he will make sure the dreams of such students are not disrupted due to some 'anarchic' elements.
Pokhriyal also said that the new education policy is promoting learning, science, research and innovation. This will start to bear fruits in next few years.
Speaking at the event organised at Taj Ganges, Minister of State (Independent Charge) Culture and Tourism Prahlad Singh Patel said that Modi government will develop Ayodhya on the model Kashi Vishwanath. Talking about the ongoing anti-CAA protests in Delhi, the Minister said that people behind violence will not be spared.
Thanking the event sponsors Abhay Ojha, President- Sales & Marketing added, “We truly appreciate the generous support of our partners for making our event Shahar Banaras as successful as it was”

CNN-News18 to host Fury in the Gulf conclave on West Asia crisis
Three-hour summit to unpack geopolitical fallout and impact on India
MUMBAI: CNN-News18 is set to host a special three-hour broadcast, Fury in the Gulf – War Conclave, on April 7, aiming to decode the escalating West Asia crisis and its far-reaching implications for India.
Scheduled from 4:00 PM to 7:00 PM, the conclave comes at a time when tensions between Iran and the United States are reshaping global geopolitics and triggering economic uncertainty. With India’s deep energy ties, trade links and large diaspora in the Gulf, the developments carry significant domestic relevance.
Built around the theme ‘Conflict, Consequences, and The Future,’ the programme will feature six curated sessions combining one-on-one interviews and panel discussions. The focus is to cut through the clutter and offer viewers a clearer understanding of the fast-evolving situation.
Key sessions include ‘Diplomacy in Times of War’ featuring Shashi Tharoor, and ‘World After the Iran Conflict’ with voices such as Ram Madhav, Reuven Azar, representatives from the European Union and the Iranian Deputy Envoy. Another session titled ‘Another Dunkirk?’ will bring together K. J. S. Dhillon and Jitin Prasada among others.
CNN-News18 editorial affairs director Rahul Shivshankar said, “In times of war, clarity becomes the most powerful tool. Fury in the Gulf – War Conclave brings together credible voices to address the questions and confusion that arise amid an overwhelming influx of information.”
He added that the initiative is aimed at delivering “facts, perspective, and insight” at a time when misinformation can easily cloud public understanding.
Echoing the sentiment, CNN-News18 CEO– English and business news Smriti Mehra said the conflict marks a defining global moment, with consequences that extend well beyond the region. She noted that the conclave seeks to present the crisis with “depth, nuance and responsibility” so audiences can better grasp its real-world impact.
As geopolitical tensions continue to dominate headlines, the conclave positions itself as an attempt to bring order to the noise, offering viewers a structured, insight-led look at a complex and rapidly shifting global situation.
