This is the Catch Up on 3 Things for the Indian Express and I'm Flora Swain.
It’s the 6th of August and here are today's headlines.

The Bangladesh parliament dissolved today, the Parliament’s office said as per news agency Reuters. Student protest coordinators had asked for the dissolving by 3 pm local today, pushing for the formation of a new interim government at the earliest. Warning of a “strict programme”, they had asked “revolutionary students to be ready”. 

Addressing the Rajya Sabha on the ongoing Bangladesh crisis, External Affairs Minister S Jaishankar today said that the Indian government is “monitoring the situation with regards to the status of minorities… But will remain deeply concerned till law and order is visibly restored. Our border forces have also been instructed to be exceptionally alert…” “We are in close and continuous touch with the Indian community in Bangladesh through our diplomatic missions,” he said in the House. Earlier in the day, he briefed an all-party meeting in the Parliament on the matter.

Amid the recent violent unrest in several British cities, the High Commission of India in the United Kingdom issued an advisory today urging Indian citizens visiting the country to remain vigilant. The advisory read, “Indian travellers would be aware of the recent disturbances in some parts of the United Kingdom. The High Commission of India in London is closely monitoring the situation. Visitors from India are advised to stay vigilant and exercise due caution while travelling to the UK." Far-right activists and anti-racism groups clashed in cities across the United Kingdom last week, following a stabbing attack at a dance class in northwest England earlier in the week, which resulted in three girls being killed and several others injured.

Vinesh Phogat achieved a historic victory by defeating Olympic champion Yui Susaki in the ore-quarterfinals. This win is particularly significant as Susaki had not conceded a point during her gold medal run at Tokyo 2020 and remained unbeaten since 2010, only losing three matches to the same opponent until today. Neeraj Chopra qualified for the men's javelin throw final at the Paris 2024 Olympics with a season-best throw of 89.34 meters on his first attempt. This impressive performance, the best across both qualification groups, highlights Chopra's readiness to defend his Tokyo gold medal.

Around a month after being discharged, senior BJP leader L K Advani was admitted to Delhi’s Apollo Hospital again today. The 96-year-old is stable and under observation, according to sources in the know of the matter. Advani has been admitted under the care of neurologist Dr Vinit Suri. Days before his admission at Apollo Hospital last month, Advani was also admitted to the All India Institute of Medical Sciences.
