The day's editorial focus shifted from the US-Iran peace deal to domestic political upheavals. In the morning, only 3 of 9 Shiv Sena (UBT) MPs attended a key parliamentary meeting, confirming a split as 6 rebels moved toward the Shinde faction. By afternoon, cross-voting in the Jharkhand Rajya Sabha election handed the NDA-backed candidate a win, dealing a blow to the Congress-led INDIA bloc. The US-Iran deal continued to draw coverage, with details of the 14-point MoU, Hormuz reopening, and Trump's threats of bombing if violated. Telegram's temporary ban ahead of NEET retest was challenged in court, with the Centre labeling it a 'dark web' for terror. Karnataka MLC results later showed Congress winning 5 of 7 seats, a boost for CM Shivakumar.
