Iranian Researcher Takes Editorial Role at International Publishing House
An Iranian agricultural researcher has been appointed editor-in-chief at the international scientific publisher Pandawa Institute, marking a new step in cross-border academic collaboration.
Hamed Kioumarsi, a researcher at Iran’s Agricultural Research, Education and Extension Organization (AREEO), has assumed the role of editor-in-chief at Pandawa Publishing, an academic publisher based in Indonesia that produces scholarly journals and books and hosts international conferences.
Speaking about the appointment, Kioumarsi said the role reflects the increasingly international nature of academic work. “Modern science depends on international collaboration,” he explained. “Editorial work goes beyond overseeing journals; it involves fostering communication and exchange among researchers from diverse regions and scholarly traditions.”
Pandawa Institute works with authors and reviewers from multiple countries and publishes research indexed in international databases such as Scopus and CrossRef. Kioumarsi indicated that this diversity was a decisive factor in his acceptance of the position, noting his interest in contributing to a platform that integrates perspectives from both established and emerging research communities.

“SIR” - Special Intensive Revision.
Why was the SIR process not done before the 2024 Lok Sabha elections?
Why were decisions regarding the SIR process taken only after the 2024 Lok Sabha elections?
If so many voters are ineligible to vote in the state elections, then these ineligible voters were present at the time of the Lok Sabha elections and must have voted.
So, which political party benefited from such a large number of ineligible voters in the 2024 Lok Sabha elections?
If a candidate from that time won the 2024 Lok Sabha elections with these ineligible voters, is their candidacy legal or illegal?

Bihar Election Results & Exit Polls 2025 : Record Turnout in Bihar and Exit Polls FAKE?
The 2025 Bihar Assembly Elections have concluded, and the results will be declared on November 14, 2025. Many political parties made numerous false and baseless promises to entice voters to vote for them. The election campaign was as seriously received by the public as it was politically dramatized.
Political parties made many ridiculous promises that could never be fully realized, examples of which are still available to the public today in the form of various issues. Such statements include: lie, get used to lying repeatedly, and keep lying until the public ousts you from power, because what's wrong with lying?

https://youtu.be/63k0Qgvef7U?si=beFCH9djwlTED_ps
In the Bihar Legislative Assembly election campaign, people can expect false promises, misleading news, fabricated information, propaganda, and much more. What do you expect?
The Bihar Assembly Elections 2025 will be held in two phases. The first phase will be held on Thursday, November 6, 2025, for 121 seats, and the second phase will be held on Tuesday, November 11, 2025, for 122 seats. The results of Bihar assembly elections will be declared on Friday, November 14, 2025. The total number of assembly seats in Bihar is 243, including 38 for Scheduled Castes, 2 for Scheduled Tribes, and 203 for the general category. Many political parties are trying to woo the people of Bihar to vote for them.
A new political party has entered the fray in this election: The "Jan Suraj Party," a new political party that claims to uplift marginalized communities and be their voice. However, this is merely a claim; promises and work never materialize, as such claims are repeated election after election in Indian politics.
