00:16Janata Party for the first time in his premiership after a humiliating election defeat in the

00:22pivotal state of Bihar exposed deep rifts over his leadership. Three party elders, including

00:28former Deputy Prime Minister LK Advani, released a statement questioning the direction of the

00:33party, which risks embarrassing Modi just ahead of a visit to Britain.

00:38Russia wants the Syrian government and opposition to agree on launching a constitutional reform

00:43process of up to 18 months, followed by early presidential elections. The eight-point proposal

00:49drawn up by Moscow before international talks in Syria this week does not rule out President

00:55Bashar al-Assad's participation in the elections, something his foes say is impossible if there

01:00is to be peace.

01:26You're all pretty successful wheeler-dealers, she told them after opening her show with

01:31her empowerment hit, Raw. But being an older, suit-and-tie-glad aviation executive doesn't

01:36mean you can't have a good time, the singer said, crouching down to help a rather bewildered

01:41audience member loosen his tie.

01:44Perry's performance also marked the launch of a new initiative called Music DXB, featuring

01:49performances from international artists at Dubai International Airport.

01:54Get ready for what might be a wet afternoon and evening and Thursday for areas along the

01:59coast. There is a chance of rain cloud formation this afternoon that may bring rain in Fujairah,

02:05northeastern parts of the country and coastal areas such as Dubai and Sharjah. Rain clouds

02:10may bring light showers on the western coastal areas of Abu Dhabi by evening. Today's high
