The day's dominant editorial focus was the escalation of protests in Pakistan-occupied Kashmir (PoK), where anti-Pakistan demonstrations intensified after 600 arrests, with one killed as security forces opened fire. Multiple outlets led with this story from early morning, covering calls for India's support and a mega Sunday protest. Earlier, the Ram Mandir donation theft scandal continued to generate headlines, with RSS chief Mohan Bhagwat backing Dattatreya Hosabale's remarks and the VHP urging police to question opposition leaders. International coverage centered on the aftermath of Khamenei's funeral, with Iran hitting back at Trump's threats and angry slogans against Trump at the funeral. Trump's statement that 'Netanyahu knows who the boss is' also drew attention. By evening, Mumbai faced rain havoc with schools shut, flights hit, and a chawl collapse killing six.
