The Aam Aadmi Party (AAP) alleged today that the Election Commission conducted a raid at the Delhi residence of Punjab Chief Minister Bhagwant Mann. This claim followed an incident where the Delhi Police seized a private vehicle with a Punjab government sticker and registration near Punjab Bhawan.

The vehicle reportedly contained liquor, Rs 10 lakh in cash, and AAP election materials, leading the Delhi Police to register a case.

AAP denied any connection to the vehicle, stating it neither belongs to nor is rented by the Punjab government, calling the incident a “planted stunt.”

However, media reports indicate the Election Commission has refuted AAP’s claims of conducting a raid at the Chief Minister’s residence.

Alberta government to introduce back-to-work law for striking teachers

The Alberta government is preparing to introduce emergency legislation that would end the province-wide teachers’ strike and require educators to return to their classrooms. Premier Danielle Smith said the strike, which began on October 6, has disrupted students’ learning for too long and must be resolved through government action if no last-minute agreement is reached. The government’s plan would compel thousands of striking teachers to resume work immediately. Negotiations between the province and the Alberta Teachers’ Association have stalled over wage increases and classroom condit

Canada expected to lose measles-free status after year-long outbreak

Canada is set to lose its international recognition as a country free of endemic measles, following a year-long outbreak that began in New Brunswick and spread across several provinces.

That changed last fall, when domestic spread continued beyond 12 months — a key threshold used by the World Health Organization to determine endemic status. Since October 2024, more than 5,000 people across Canada have
