 The American President Trump executed the startling claim on Thursday while reiterating his offer to mediate between India and China on what he called a "big conflict" continuing between the two nations.

Now Trump has exposed that what he told to the Indian prime minister Narendra Modi during the phone call. He said "I can tell you; I did speak to Prime Minister Modi. He is not in a good mood about what is going on with China," the US President announced during an interaction in the White House. India and China have a big conflict. Two countries with 1.4 billion people (each). Two countries with very powerful militaries. India is not happy and probably China is not happy," the president said when questioned if he was worried about the border situation between India and China.

He added: "They like me in India. I think they like me in India more than the media likes me in this country. And, I like Modi. I like your prime minister a lot. He is a great gentleman."

The US President's mediation offers a day earlier was followed by a meticulously crafted response from New Delhi on Thursday. "India is engaged with the Chinese side to peacefully resolve it," Anurag Srivastava, a spokesperson of the foreign ministry, informed reporters when questioned about Trump's offer.

Moments after US President Donald Trump said he had spoken to Prime Minister Narendra Modi and "he is not in a good mood on what is going on in China", top government sources denied the claim, stating that there had been no recent communication between the two leaders. "There has been no recent contact between PM Modi and US President Trump. The last conversation between them was on 4 April 2020, on the subject of Hydroxychloroquine," said sources. "Yesterday, the Ministry of External Affairs had also made it clear that we're directly in touch with China through established mechanisms and diplomatic contacts," they said.

 A major fire accident occurred in a chemical factory at Kurkumbh MIDC and positively no one was injured.  The incident came to light after a huge noise was heard in the area. The cops have sealed the area and have blocked certain areas to avoid crowding.

Devendra Potphode, chief fire officer of the Pune Metropolitan Region Development Authority (PMRDA) said, "several fire tenders were rushed to the spot at Kusum Distillation and Refining Private Limited Company to douse the flames".

Flames and smoke, which were seen billowing from the office premises, triggered a panic situation in the region for a while.

The official said that drums containing acetone and ethanol were kept at the plant. As the fire spread, those drums caught fire and then exploded. A blanket of thick black smoke covered the area after the blaze. No one was injured in the incident as the plant was closed. Due to the immediate response of the police, the area has been sealed effectively.
