New Delhi, Nov 4 (IANS) Defence Minister Rajnath Singh on Wednesday asserted that the future of the Indo-Pacific region will not be determined solely by technology, but by how "wisely" nations use it and the level of "trust" they build in each other. Addressing a special session of the Indo-Pacific Regional Dialogue (IPRD)-2026, Rajnath Singh noted that oceans have never been distant or unfamiliar to India. "For centuries, Indian sailors have traversed these maritime routes, carrying not only goods but also knowledge, culture, and human connections. This is one of the key reasons why India has consistently contributed responsibly to a free, open, and rules-based international order," he said while adding that India's maritime responsibilities extend beyond its national coastline, and the country remains committed to supporting an open, inclusive, and rules-based maritime system. According to the Defence Minister, the global maritime security environment is currently under strain due to "deliberate disruptions" to trade. Custom Ad: Multiplex "Freedom of navigation along sea routes is being openly challenged, and narrow maritime passages are increasingly being used as strategic tools. This growing instability at sea poses a serious challenge to the broader international order," he said. Moreover, he stressed that the answer to every disruption cannot be a retreat from globalisation, nor should there be attempts to close maritime spaces that have played a crucial role in advancing human progress. "Instead, the goal should be to make interdependence more secure through diversified supply chains." Rajnath Singh further said that as India advances toward becoming a developed nation by 2047, the maritime sector will play a key role in national transformation. "India's ambitions go beyond expanding trade or strengthening naval capabilities; the country seeks to develop a comprehensive maritime ecosystem," he added. Noting that human capabilities are undergoing remarkable change, he highlighted that Artificial intelligence (AI) is transforming the way data is analysed. "Autonomous systems are expanding possibilities in surveillance and operations. Advanced sensors are enhancing ocean-monitoring capabilities. Progress in materials science, biotechnology, and data analytics is opening new avenues for research and application. These developments will have far-reaching implications for maritime security and economic activity," the Defence Minister said. However, he stated that technology alone cannot provide all the answers. "The future of the Indo-Pacific will also depend on how wisely countries use technology and how much trust they build through cooperation," Rajnath Singh said while stressing that the world is at a critical juncture where aspirations for collaboration must be quickly translated into joint technological and operational efforts. He cautioned that technology should not become another source of inequality among nations. "The Indo-Pacific region includes countries with significant differences in technological and economic capabilities. While some nations possess advanced research facilities, others are still developing the institutional and human-resource capacities needed to participate fully in this transformation. If the benefits of technological progress remain limited to a few countries, the region will not be able to achieve the collective resilience it requires," he stated. Recalling that Prime Minister Narendra Modi announced the Indo-Pacific Oceans Initiative (IPOI) in 2019, Rajnath Singh mentioned that the initiative provides a practical framework for advancing maritime cooperation across seven interconnected areas. "The Indo-Pacific Regional Dialogue contributes to this broader effort by bringing together stakeholders and communities from different sectors to discuss specific challenges and explore practical solutions. This connection between national priorities, regional cooperation, and tangible outcomes is crucial," he said. He added that India's 'Maritime Amrit Kaal Vision 2047' offers a comprehensive roadmap for this transformation and places strong emphasis on technology, innovation, research, education, and skill development. Rajnath Singh concluded by saying that for India, contributing to a peaceful, secure, and prosperous maritime region through cooperation, strong partnerships, and collective efforts in the Indo-Pacific remains a key priority. --IANS cg/uk

Madurai, Nov 4 (IANS) In a significant development in the sensational custodial death case of temple security guard B. Ajith Kumar, the Madurai bench of the Madras High Court on Wednesday rejected petitions filed by four police personnel challenging their judicial remand and ordered the trial court to conclude proceedings within nine months. The court order comes amid continuing scrutiny of the investigation into the death of the 29-year-old security guard, who allegedly suffered fatal injuries during police questioning in June 2025. The case had triggered widespread outrage over custodial violence and prompted the Tamil Nadu government to hand over the investigation to the Central Bureau of Investigation (CBI). Justice Murugan dismissed the petitions filed by former Manamadurai Deputy Superintendent of Police N. Shanmugasundaram, former Thiruppuvanam Inspector S.P. Ramesh Kumar, Special Sub-Inspector S. Sivakumar and Head Constable G. Ilayaraja. Custom Ad: Multiplex The four officers had challenged the September 16 order of the Additional District and Sessions Court in Madurai, which remanded them in judicial custody after framing charges against 10 police personnel, including murder under Section 103(1) of the Bharatiya Nyaya Sanhita. The petitioners said that they had consistently appeared before the trial court, cooperated with investigators and previously secured judicial protection against arrest. They added that their subsequent remand was unjustified. However, counsel representing Ajith Kumar's family opposed their release, raising concerns that the accused might influence witnesses and interfere with the trial. Ajith Kumar, employed at the Madapuram Badrakali Amman Temple, died on June 28, 2025, after being detained by a special police team investigating an alleged jewellery theft. The CBI filed its initial chargesheet against six police personnel on August 20, 2025, followed by a supplementary chargesheet on December 12, naming four additional officers. The trial court had cited allegations that the officers fabricated police records, altered General Diary entries and destroyed mobile phones to suppress evidence. Investigators also alleged that Shanmugasundaram attempted to negotiate a compromise with the victim's parents through local political intermediaries. The prosecution also raised concerns over the withdrawal of police protection provided to Ajith Kumar's brother Naveen Kumar, a crucial witness. After considering submissions from both sides, the High Court upheld the remand, clearing the way for the trial to proceed under a nine-month deadline. --IANS aal/khz
