Ayatollah Khamenei death: Who will lead Iran after Supreme Leader’s death? What Iran’s constitution says
The process in the Iranian constitution after Supreme leader's death Under Iran’s constitution, the country’s next supreme leader is selected by the Assembly of Experts, an 88-member body of senior clerics elected every eight years in a nationwide vote. In the 2024 elections, allies of the supreme leader secured all 88 seats, as per BBC. Article 111 of the constitution stipulates that, until a new leader is chosen, a temporary three-member council will carry out the supreme leader’s responsibilities. If no contender secures a two-thirds majority, the interim three-member council could, in principle, remain in charge for an extended period. After Khomeini returned to Iran in February 1979 and declared the Islamic Republic, Khamenei was appointed to the influential Revolutionary Council.

रिपोर्ट में दावा किया गया है कि IRGC के भीतर मौजूद शीर्ष कमांड स्ट्रक्चर खामेनेई के उत्तराधिकारी के नाम पर रविवार, 1 मार्च की सुबह तक मुहर लगाने की कोशिश में है. इधर खबरों के अनुसार दिवंगत सर्वोच्च नेता के बेटे मोजतबा खामेनेई को ईरान का नया सर्वोच्च नेता नामित किया जा सकता है. सूत्रों के अनुसार, अमेरिका और इज़राइल के संयुक्त हवाई हमलों के चलते मौजूदा हालात इतने अस्थिर हैं कि ईरान की संवैधानिक संस्था ‘विशेषज्ञों की परिषद' (Assembly of Experts) की बैठक बुलाना फिलहाल संभव नहीं है. ईरान के संविधान के मुताबिक, सुप्रीम लीडर का चयन 88 वरिष्ठ धार्मिक विद्वानों वाली यही परिषद करती है. सूत्रों का कहना है कि उन्हें डर है कि अमेरिकी और इज़राइली हमलों का अगला निशाना सैन्य और कमांड सेंटर्स हो सकते हैं.

Delhi calls for dialogue but its diplomatic tightrope gets tighter
Less than 40 hours after Prime Minister Narendra Modi left Israel, India was confronted with a familiar but challenging diplomatic test. After speaking with Israel Foreign Minister Gideon Sa’ar in the afternoon, he said he reiterated “India’s call for dialogue and diplomacy to de-escalate tensions”. The attack came when Iran was engaged in negotiations and Oman had indicated that a deal was within reach. Then, too, Delhi had called for “no alternative to dialogue and diplomacy to address and resolve the multiple conflicts in the region”. In both theatres, India’s approach hinges on strategic autonomy: avoiding public censure, preserving relationships across divides, and insulating core interests.
