Intelligence and investigative agencies had no clue about the 'missing grenade' that the civilian found on March 29; sources say it may have been given to him by his friend in the army; police summoning his acquaintances in the army In the case of a grenade exploding in the house of a factory worker taking his as well as the life of his two-year-old daughter, on August 28, police are now hard-pressed to find out the origin of the ordnance. Investigation is on to find out how it came to be in the possession of a civilian and how neither the police nor investigative and intelligence agencies were able to locate it. Sources from a state agency suspect the grenade may have been given by a friend of the deceased who is in the army. The Aravalli police on September 1 had announced that it was indeed a grenade that had exploded in the midst of a civilian population in Godkulla village near Shamlaji in Bhiloda taluka. However, they are still at a loss to explain how it ended up in the hands of Ramesh Faneja who used to work in a cosmetics tube making factory in Vadodara. SP Sanjay Kharat said that one explanation is that Faneja and his friends had "found" the grenade near the village pond on March 29, something that has been corroborated by the two friends picked up by the police for questioning. However, doubts are still being raised on their statements because the deceased's family and friends had firmly denied the existence of a grenade before the FSL, and social media pictures dug out by the police proved otherwise. But the most pertinent question remains: Where did the grenade come from? SP Kharat on Thursday confirmed to Mirror that the grenade is a standard issue ordnance used by military and paramilitary forces in India. However, they have been unable to trace from where the grenade went missing or where it was manufactured. Kharat said, "We have already summoned Faneja's friends, many of whom serve in the forces, to give their statements. It is possible that one of them may have handed him the grenade for some reason. We are searching for all of his contacts in the forces who went to the village on leave in the past six months." Kharat added, "We will also be writing to the various military and paramilitary forces as well as to the ordnance factories and ammunition depots to find out if there is a grenade missing from anywhere." Meanwhile, police are also exploring a situation wherein the three friends may have been given the grenade for nefarious purposes and so background checks are underway. Intelligence failure Most notably, Kharat informed Mirror that the grenade which ultimately took his and his daughter's life, had been in Ramesh Faneja's possession since at least March 29, 2021. This means that a military grade ordnance was in the hands of a civilian for five full months and no agencies, either intelligence or investigative, were aware of this fact. This, in spite of multiple people knowing about the grenade and Faneja flaunting not only a photo with the grenade but also with an assault rifle on social media. SP Kharat also confirmed, "The children used to play around with the grenade unaware of what could happen. Ultimately, it did take two lives." Police said that Faneja was allegedly trying to either pry or break it open with a hammer when it exploded. ### Response:

New Delhi: Cancer, one of the deadliest of all diseases, is when abnormal cells start multiplying at an uncontrolled pace and form a deadly tumour. This could hamper normal functioning of nearby organs and may spread to other body parts and become metastatic. One of the most painful cancers, pancreatic cancer, due to its location in the body, can give four major hints that most patients may end up overlooking. What are the symptoms of pancreatic cancer in the? When cancer cells accumulate to form a tumour outside the pancreas, it is known as pancreatic cancer. This disease has the ability to send blood in a state where it becomes highly-prone to clotting. Therefore, a blood clot forming in the legs becomes the first and most important clue of the disease - says the Cancer Society. This condition is known as deep vein thrombosis. Its symptoms in the legs may include: Swelling Warmth Redness Pain Sometimes, a part of the clot can break and travel to the lungs thereby making breathing hard or causing chest pain. This is known as pulmonary embolism and it may raise death risk. However, the clot may not always mean cancer. To ascertain if it is pancreatic cancer, it is important to watch out for other symptoms like abdominal pain and unexplained weight loss that are also not always linked to the disease. Due to absence of prominent symptoms in the early stages, pancreatic cancer often goes missed. The disease is usually diagnosed at advanced stages which further raises early death risk.

Wondering if the Cauvery Water Management Authority (CWMA) is empowered to discuss Karnataka's Mekedatu balancing reservoir project across the Cauvery river at its meeting, Tamil Nadu Chief Minister M K Stalin on Saturday contended that the decision to discuss the subject is 'arbitrary and illegal.' Expressing shock over CWMA chairman S K Haldar's remarks in Thanjavur that the matter would be discussed at the meeting on June 23, Stalin sought to know if Haldar has 'powers to make arbitrary decisions.'The CWMA does not have powers to discuss a subject that has already been taken to the Supreme Court, the Chief Minister said in a statement here. 'Knowing about this and announcing to discuss the issue are illegal,' Stalin claimed. Hence, it has been decided to send a legislature party delegation under State Water Resources Minister Duraimurugan to New Delhi to convey people's anguish to the Centre. 'We have sought appointment from the Jal Shakti Minister Gajendra Singh Shekhawat. The panel will very soon visit Delhi and convey the people's anguish caused by Haldar's announcement in Thanjavur,' he said. Tamil Nadu would not allow the construction of the dam and would fight against it in the Supreme Court, Stalin said. 'Tamil Nadu's legal battle will continue and this government will fight for its rights over our livelihood issue,' he said. The Chief Minister claimed that the proposed project would prevent Tamil Nadu from exercising its rights on the river water. Besides it would reduce the quantum of water meant for the State and this would tantamount to deceiving the farmers, he said and added that the denial of water is against the principles of cooperative federalism. He has been consistently opposing the neighbouring Karnataka's attempt to build the dam and even took up the issue during his meeting with Prime Minister Narendra Modi in the national capital. An all-party delegation called on Modi and apprised him about Tamil Nadu's concerns and the State Assembly passed a resolution against the proposed dam. 'Yet, Karnataka has not given up on its stubborn stand,' Stalin said. Claiming that his counterpart Basavaraj Bommai was in Delhi to exert pressure on the Centre, Stalin said 'the BJP-led government should not yield. I hope the Centre will uphold the principles of cooperative federalism. ### Response:

For the first time in his 12 years of T20 career, this is the first time that people are questioning Virat Kohli’s inclusion in the playing XI for the India vs England T20I. The former skipper has been struggling to time the ball. And Kohli’s extended rough patch is not only disturbing his fans but also the team selectors. The 33 years old has not made a international century after 2019, and despite some good innings, he under constant scrutiny and criticism. But now that the young team has defeated Ireland and England at their fortresses, tweeple are questioning Kohli’s return in playing XI. The senior player was rested for the first T20 match against England, and now he’s all set to make his comeback. Read Also: IPL: Ravindra Jadeja deletes posts related to MS Dhoni's team Chennai Super Kings, sparks rift rumours However, along with Virat, Jasprit Bumrah, Rishabh Pant and Ravindra Jadeja were also kept out for the first game. But the debate is only on for Kohli as the rest seems in a rather good form. And now that the young team India under the leadership of regular captain Rohit Sharma have already thrashed England batters and bowler both, the job of Indian team management has become more tough. If they keep Kohli in playing XI and he fails to perform they’ll be trolled, and if youngsters are kept out for long time, the perspective of upcoming T20 World Cup will also be disturbed. Hence, with the return of senior players, the Indian team management, skipper Rohit Sharma and head coach Rahul Dravid will have some serious brain storming sessions. Today’s T20 match between Indian and England will be played at Edgbaston, the same venue where England defeated guests very comfortably in the decider match. The match will begin at 7:00 pm and despite losing the first match with 50 runs, England is not looking for any major changes in the team, but its the Indian side which will have some major changes.

Access to bare necessities among households is "significantly better" in 2018 compared to 2012, the survey findings showed. The Economic Survey 2020-21 measured the progress made by states in providing access to "the bare necessities" such as water, sanitation, housing, electricity and clean cooking fuel for a healthy living, in addition to highlighting the significance of the healthcare sector amidst the COVID-19 pandemic, calling for an agile healthcare infrastructure in the country. Access to these essentials have "direct linkages" with health of household members and also "regarded as an important barometer of economic development in academic and policymaking circles," the survey said. Better sanitation and drinking water facilities help prevent spread of communicable diseases, and access to bare necessities along with transport, medical care, and schools is "essential both as a direct component of well-being as well as inputs into productive capabilities". the survey said. These essentials are examined based on a construction of the Bare Necessities Index (BNI) at the rural, urban, and all-India level. The BNI comprises 26 indicators on five dimensions such as water, sanitation, housing, micro-environment, and other facilities. The index measures all states for 2012 and 2018 using NSO data from 69th and 76th rounds. Here's what the survey findings reveal: Close Access to bare necessities among households is "significantly better" in 2018 compared to 2012, the survey findings showed. These are the highest in states such as Kerala, Punjab, Haryana, Gujarat, Uttrakhand, Delhi, Goa, Mizoram and Sikkim, while the lowest in Odisha, Jharkhand, West Bengal and Tripura. Source: Economic Survey 2020-21 Improved or highest access to necessities in rural regions was recorded in Punjab, Kerala, Sikkim, Goa and Delhi, while lowest was in Uttar Pradesh, Madhya Pradesh, Bihar, Jharkhand, West Bengal, Odisha, Assam, Manipur and Tripura. While, in urban areas, no state showed the lowest levels of BNI in 2018. Uttarakhand, Jammu and Kashmir, Punjab, Rajasthan, Madhya Pradesh, Maharashtra, Karnataka, Kerala, Tamil Nadu, Arunachal Pradesh and Manipur showed improvement over 2012. Access improved "disproportionately more" for the poorest households as against the richest households across the country. "The improvement in equity is particularly noteworthy because while the rich can seek private alternatives, lobby for better services, or if need be, move to areas where public goods are better provided for, the poor rarely have such choices. Thus, provision of public goods can particularly affect the quality of living of the vulnerable sections in a society," the Economic Survey said. Drinking Water Accessibility Index This sub-index on drinking water accessibility revealed that access to drinking water to most households had improved in 2018 compared to 2012. States above the line in the graph below depict improved access to drinking water to households in 2018 compared to 2012. However, regional disparities have increased over the said period, attributed to increase in rural areas, while there was a decline reported in urban areas. "The Jal Jeevan mission must therefore focus on reducing the disparities in the rural areas as the reduction in such disparities will reduce the disparities across India," the survey highlighted. Source: Economic Survey 2020-21 Sanitation Index This sub-index measures physical as well as quality of access to sanitation. Sanitation access has improved for all states in rural areas and for most of the states in urban areas. Regional disparities have declined as the states having low access to sanitation in 2012 have improved. "However, inter-State differences in access to sanitation are still large, especially in rural areas. The level of access to safe sanitation has increased in the lowest income quintile, both in rural as well as in urban areas," the report said. Likewise, significant improvement in access to housing for the lowest-income group has been reported. Micro-Environment Index Access to micro-environment has improved for all states, except for Assam (rural and urban) and Odisha (urban). Regional disparities have declined sharply in urban areas, though increased in urban areas. Micro-environment index measures the percentage of households living in a dwelling unit with access to "drainage (other than Katcha drainage), without problems of flies/mosquitoes (indicated by other than severe), and efforts made by local bodies/state government to tackle the problem of flies/mosquitoes." Other Facilities Index Access to 'other-facilities' has improved for all states for rural as well as in urban areas, except for Himachal Pradesh (urban). Overall, the inter-states disparities have also declined, especially in the urban areas. The 'other facilities' index records the availability of kitchen, kitchen with a water tap, access to bathroom, electricity use, the types of wiring used instead of temporary electric wiring, and type of fuel used for cooking etc. How bare necessities can benefit health and education outcomes The latest economic survey highlighted that these "bare necessities" can have a positive impact on health outcomes. For instance, benefits of the Swachh Bharat Mission, led to a decline in diarrhea and malaria cases in children below five years. Decline in open defecation showed similar outcomes with regards to child survival. Based on the studies cited as examples, the Economic Survey correlated the BNI with infant mortality rate and under-5 mortality rate for rural and urban areas. "The close associations suggest bare necessities correlate strongly with health outcomes," the report said. Daily activities like water hauling, consumes substantial time and effort of a household. This activity negatively impacts school attendance among girls, the report suggested. While access to latrine facilities substantially increases enrolment of pubescent-age girls in schools.The survey also mentioned "strong correlation between electricity consumption per capita and higher scores on the education index across countries". The statistical findings represented in the survey indicated "high level of the gross enrolment ratio in the schools could be linked with BNI." ### Response:

Russia's promise to scale down military operations around Kyiv and northern Ukraine does not represent a ceasefire, Moscow's lead negotiator in talks with Ukraine said on Tuesday.Click here to get the latest updates on Ukraine - Russia conflict "This is not a ceasefire but this is our aspiration, gradually to reach a de-escalation of the conflict at least on these fronts," Vladimir Medinsky said in an interview with the TASS news agency. Earlier, Russia had promised to significantly reduce military activity in Ukrainian capital Kyiv and the northern city of Chernihiv, as conflict talks between the two sides came to an end in Istanbul on Tuesday. "We are taking [these] two steps to de-escalate the conflict," said Medinsky after the meeting. Kyiv negotiators, however, called for an "international" accord to guarantee Ukrainian security. The Russian defence ministry said the country has decided to significantly reduce military activity in Kyiv and Chernihiv due to diplomatic negotiations. Russia's state-affiliated media quoted Medinsky as saying a meeting between President Vladimir Putin and Ukrainian President Volodymyr Zelenskyy was possible if there was an initial peace treaty tabled by foreign ministers. He added that the negotiations between the two countries were constructive. The Ukrainian side, however, said it had not yet agreed on any condition with Russia and had not received any approval from the Russian delegation. Meanwhile, Zelenskyy said at least seven people were killed and 22 injured in a Russian strike on a regional government building in southern Mykolaiv. Security guarantees and organising a ceasefire to resolve humanitarian problems were being discussed at talks in Turkey between Ukraine and Russia on Tuesday, an adviser to Zelenskyy said. “Intensive consultations are underway right now on some important issues, the most important of which is agreement on international security guarantees for Ukraine, because with this agreement we will be able to end the war as Ukraine needs,” said political adviser Mykhailo Podolyak on national television. “The second issue is a ceasefire to solve all the humanitarian problems that have accumulated,” he said. He said another problem was the “escalation of the war” including what he said, without giving details, was the “violation of the rules of war”. The more than month-long invasion, the biggest attack on a European nation since World War Two, has seen over 3.8 million people flee abroad, left thousands dead or injured, and has brought isolation to Russia’s economy and tumult to markets. Nearly 5,000 people have been killed, including about 210 children, in the port city of Mariupol amid heavy Russian bombardment, according to figures from the mayor. Reuters was unable to immediately verify the numbers. Russia’s military signalled last week it would concentrate on expanding territory held by separatists in eastern Ukraine, but Ukraine said it saw no sign Russia had given up a plan to surround the capital. When the sides last met in person, Ukraine accused Russian Foreign Minister Sergei Lavrov of ignoring pleas to discuss a ceasefire, while Lavrov said a halt to fighting was not even on the agenda. Since then, they have held talks via video link and publicly discussed a formula under which Ukraine might accept some kind of formal neutral status. The Kremlin said on Monday that Russian investigators would look into a video circulated on social media that purported to show Ukrainian forces mistreating captured Russian soldiers. Kremlin spokesperson Dmitry Peskov said the video contained “monstrous images” and needed to be legally assessed, and that those who took part in what he described as torture needed to be held responsible. Reuters was not able to independently verify the authenticity of the video cited by the Kremlin. Asked about the video during an interview on Sky News, Ukraine’s Prosecutor General Iryna Venediktova said it could not be taken at face value. “We need proof,” she said on Monday. “If militaries from (the) Ukrainian side are guilty, we will investigate them and take them to court.” ### Response:

Xiaomi Pad 5 has got everyone talking about it. And, rightly so. It's the sincerest attempt at an Android tablet in a long time. It doesn't ridicule the users with laughable specs. It doesn't pretend to be a laptop alternative either. Honestly, it should be labelled an iPad killer too. I will talk about that part later in the review. With this Android tablet, Xiaomi has got two things right - pricing and timing of the launch. The Xiaomi Pad comes to India right after the pandemic, when there is a renewed interest in tablets, thanks to the increased need for an extra screen at home. For consuming content, taking video calls etc. Then, it's priced quite sanely, starting at Rs 26,999. Yes, you need to spend extra on the accessories but, even then, a lot of people can afford the tablet. Xiaomi has also packed Pad 5 with some impressive hardware - a 120Hz display, Snapdragon 860 SoC, support for keyboard and stylus and a decent battery pack. It's already getting a lot of praise, and while I agree with most things, there are few I have different opinions about. Let me address them in this detailed review. It's not an iPad killer Xiaomi Pad 5 is hailed as the iPad killer. That's how much Apple has dominated the category that every Android tablet is instantly compared to the iPad. The latter has been a huge success for Apple, despite a hefty price tag. But, here is the thing - anyone in their right mind looking to buy an iPad will not, and should not, ditch it for the Xiaomi Pad 5. There are two primary reasons to spend on a tablet - productivity and entertainment. It's the productivity part where the iPad leaps ahead of any Android tablet, let aside the Xiaomi Pad 5. It offers many tools and apps for creators that are missing on the Android ecosystem. Apple also keeps promoting its developers to make iPad or Apple exclusive apps. Whether you pay for these apps and use them is a choice, but it gives the iPad an edge. Plus, if you have an iPhone or MacBook or even an Apple Watch, then the connected ecosystem is a treat to use. This brings me to the entertainment part and that's where the Xiaomi Pad truly excels. A great entertainment device There are multiple factors contributing to this. First, let's talk about the display. The Xiaomi Pad 5 comes with a 10.9-inch full HD+ screen. It's the ideal display size for a tablet, making the Pad 5 comfortable to hold and use. You feel home in both landscape and portrait orientations. It doesn't feel too big for the palm and can be used for long periods. Then, the display gets all the perks you want. It has a 120Hz refresh rate and supports Dolby Vision and HDR10+ on OTT platforms. One great thing about the display is the 16:10 aspect ratio. It means that the screen has very thin black bars while streaming content and even if you zoom in, very little content is cropped out. The display quality is also really good. The tab successfully detects the Dolby Vision content. Xiaomi deserves more appreciation for pushing Dolby Vision support across devices. The display is bright, sharp and colourful. It feels super smooth while scrolling through menus and web pages. The only issue I faced was that the screen catches a lot of fingerprint smudges. So, keeping it clean will be a huge task. The speakers on this tablet complement the whole viewing experience. They are loud, clear and crisp. Also, they support positional audio. They basically adjust the stereo sound automatically as you switch tablet orientation between horizontal and vertical. There is also support for Dolby Atmos here. We built but skipped a few things The Xiaomi Pad 5 is a well-built slate. It has a modern design, is just 6.9mm thick and weighs 511 grams. The weight is also fine for a tab. It is easy to use with both hands and the build quality is also good. The rear panel is made of plastic with a matte finish on top. It catches fingerprint smudges but, they don't really show. I have the grey colour variant which looks good. The camera module at the back houses a single 13-megapixel camera with a flash next to it. The power button is on the top, volume button on the right side and there is a small strip next to it to attach and charge the stylus. The left side comes with pogo pins to attach to the keyboard cover. There is a type-C USB port for charging. Here is an interesting thing though - this is just a Wi-Fi tablet. So, there is no SIM card slot. Xiaomi has also skipped sd card support and 3.5mm headphone jack on the Pad 5 - two features that would have been highly appreciated on a tablet that plays big on the entertainment part. A fluid Android tablet This was literally my first thought when I started using the Xiaomi Pad 5. I mentioned in my first impressions of this tablet that this is the most fluid Android tablet I have used. Let's start with the hardware first. Pad 5 packs the Snapdragon 860 SoC, a capable mid-range chip that was used on Poco X3 Pro last year. Again, a smart choice. A lot of OEMs haven't used this chip on phones because it lacks the 5G support. In the case of Xiaomi Pad 5, it doesn't matter. The processor sits alongside 6GB of RAM with either 128GB or 256GB internal storage. The chip is perfect for the tablet. The apps open quickly. The tab feels fluid during everyday tasks. Even when I was running 10-15 apps at the same time, the tablet didn't throw any tantrums. The intensive games like BGMI and Call of Duty: Mobile run seamlessly at high graphics settings. Then, of course, you need to talk about the whole software experience. It's great. Rare for Xiaomi but, appreciated. Xiaomi has reworked the MIUI for Pad from scratch and everything is very well optimised for the tablet's form factor. For example, the calculator and calendar apps seamlessly transition between the two orientations and work well. The UI is clean. There are very few pre-installed apps on the tab. Most from Google and others from Xiaomi. Xiaomi has also added some special features to make use of the tablet. There is a dock at the bottom, inspired by the iPad, which shows pinned apps along with the three most recent apps to quickly access them from there itself. You can also run multiple apps at the same time. There are two ways to do it - split screen and floating windows. Overall, it's a sincere and honest attempt that will hopefully get better with Google's focus on Android tablets and the arrival of Android 12L. The Xiaomi Pad 5 also features an 8-megapixel camera on the front, largely for video calls. It does a decent job. You are unlikely to use the rear camera for clicking pictures but, there is an option to scan documents within the camera app which comes in handy. The Xiaomi ecosystem Customers are generally reluctant to buy an Android tablet because of the lack of accessory support. Xiaomi's decision to launch two of them with the Pad gives some assurance. The Xiaomi Pad 5 works with a keyboard folio cover and a stylus pen -- both of which have to be purchased separately. Xiaomi announced the prices in time for this review. The keyboard cover costs Rs 1,499 and the smart pen is priced at Rs 4,999. Very reasonably priced. The smart pen connects to the tablet using Bluetooth and charges automatically when connected to the slate. The use case is everything we already know. It can be used to take notes, draw etc. There are two buttons on the pen. You can press and hold the first one to open the notes app. Pressing the second one lets you take screenshots. The pen is responsive and accurate on most occasions. It still lacks the smoothness of Samsung's S Pen. You can still skip the pen but, the keyboard cover is a must for anyone buying the Xiaomi Pad 5 to get the best out of the latter. It has a faux leather finish and looks good. The keypad is obviously smaller than what you get on laptops but, the keys have ample travel space and once you get used to the form factor, it is fun to use. Xiaomi has also added a few shortcuts to the keyboard. For example, Fn + N opens the notification tray and Fn + A lets you take screenshots. On top it, the tablet can be connected to a Bluetooth mouse. It further adds to the whole productivity thing. Big battery, slow charging Xiaomi has packed a decent 8,720mAh battery inside the Xiaomi Pad 5. It claims that this pack can offer 5 days of music playback, 16 hours of video playback or 10 hours of gaming time. I have been very impressed with the battery life. I have used the tab for watching videos or listening to music and, have managed to get one and a half day's backup on it. What's annoying, though, is the charging support. The tab comes with a 22.5W charger inside the box that takes more than three hours to charge Pad 5 from 0 to 100 per cent. The tablet supports 33W charging so you can always use a Xiaomi charger but, even then, the speed isn't impressive. Xiaomi Pad 5: Final verdict The iPads are still the best tablets out there. It's a fact. Not everyone can afford them. That's an even more important fact. There is a general need for capable Android tablets. We have been saying this for years now. And, it's good to see Xiaomi stepping up and trying to fill the void with the Xiaomi Pad 5. It is a fabulous package that gives great value for your money. The Xiaomi Pad 5 is affordable, has a great display and offers decent performance to anyone who is in the market for an additional screen to consume media or enhance productivity. Don't mistake it for an iPad killer though.

Actor Irrfan Khan, one of the greatest actors in the history of Indian cinema, passed away on April 29, 2020, and his sad demise left a void that can never be filled. The actor, known for his stellar performances in films like Maqbool, The Lunchbox, Life of Pi, Paan Singh Tomar and more, was an inspiration to millions of actors around the world. And Jersey actress Mrunal Thakur has also been his admirer. Irrfan Khan has been "the biggest inspiration" for the Toofan actress who is trying to make her mark in the Hindi film industry after bidding adieu to TV. In an exclusive interview with Zoom TV Digital recently, Mrunal opened up about why screentime doesn't really matter to her. The actress said that the one thing she has learnt from the late legend is that you have to light up the frame even if it's only for a few scenes.Talking about why she chooses powerful supporting roles, she said, "If I was a part of a film, even if there were 5 scenes or 3 scenes or 1 scene, they need to be solid, good scenes. And that's the time when I had to shine. "Irrfan sir was my biggest inspiration because every time he would come on screen, he would just light the screen up. What I learnt from him is that the screen space doesn't matter, what matters is how long you can hold the audience's attention and how much you elevate your performance."The actress added that she feels that every scene "needs to be done in the most authentic way" or she would rather not do it.In April 2020, Irrfan lost his two-year-long battle with neuroendocrine tumour. He breathed his last at a hospital in Mumbai. Today is the late legend's second death anniversary. ### Response:

The 122-member contingent was airlifted from Dhaka on an Indian Air Force C-17 Globemaster aircraft. The Bangladeshi contingent is being led by Colonel Md Mohtashim Hyder Chowdhury, and includes a marching contingent and a military band. What makes the contingent's participation special is the fact that the year marks 50th-anniversary celebrations of the 1971 Liberation War of Bangladesh. The Indian Army took to Twitter to post, "Together we fought, together we march. Tune in on 26 Jan 21 for the splendid parade." In a statement, the Indian High Commission in Dhaka said that this is "only the third time in 70 odd years of our Republic that has a foreign military contingent participate in our parade". The contingent will visit historical sites in Agra and Ajmer on January 28 and 29 before their departure home.

While 2020 reiterated the role of digital technologies, 2021 may see India strengthen its policy framework for a truly connected Bharat. By Deepak Maheshwari Predicting the future is a precarious task even in the best of times, more so, amidst so much uncertainty, but the past and present cues do offer some clues. However, before venturing into the future, it would be useful to take a quick look at the year gone by. 2020: Year view, er, rear-view In cricket, the 20-20 format is one of the most unpredictable but the calendar year 2020 has been even more so, and not only on account of the COVID-19 that created more disruption than even most of the pessimists had predicted in its early days. With the vaccines making their debut in some countries and the imminent availability of the same in India seems like a harbinger of change and the year 2021 is likely to bring much-needed cheer, delight, and hope. While 2020 showed that one does not need too many things to live and survive, technology certainly was not one of those. Demand for information and communication technology, especially in terms of services got a huge fillip even as some product launches were likely deferred and several supply chains derailed in the face of prolonged and widespread lockdowns across the world. The reliance on digital technology became a necessity for work-from-home (WFH), study-at-home, online shopping, digital payment, entertainment, communication, and yes, even for contact tracing and consultations with healthcare professionals. A protocol was released detailing how the data would be shared. However, privacy concerns were raised and continue to prevail in several quarters. Of course, newsgathering, dissemination, and sharing also went online in a big way, and views - even distorted ones, going viral on social media. Moreover, rumor-mongering reached a new peak or rather a new nadir, given the numerous unsubstantiated conspiracy theories, symptoms, and treatments floating around, sometimes more virulent and perhaps even more dangerous than even the Coronavirus. However, beyond all this, digital connectivity helped people stay connected while dealing with isolation. Streaming platforms became the mainstay of entertainment and cashed in with growing popularity and adoption amidst elongated lockdowns and phased unlocking. Several shows and films touch upon the use and misuse of technology and 'Jamtara' became the title of a show on, what else, cyber fraud, the trait with which this town got associated with. The year also saw the silver jubilee of both the mobile telephony and the internet services in India that had debuted in 1995, barely a fortnight apart. While these had started as two distinct services, there is increasing convergence of the two. Most people take a new mobile phone or a connection not just to talk with someone but also to use the internet even if it is to use certain social media or messaging platforms only. With the Personal Data Protection Bill still being deliberated by the Joint Parliamentary Committee (JPC) and the National Strategies for Cyber Security and Artificial Intelligence not yet announced, there was no significant legislative or regulatory development through the year to write something home about. Still, it would be wrong to infer that the policy space was inactive. On Independence Day, the Prime Minister made the welcome announcement of extending broadband connectivity to all the villages. 5G spectrum auction and long-standing demand for more de-licensed spectrum are likely to be taken up only next year even as digital payments have seen massive growth. Indian IT companies and their employees rose to the occasion of vide a quick and smooth changeover to WFH. Some overseas clients realized this only when they saw people joining the video calls with different backgrounds. WFH became a legitimate mode of work for millions of office workers. Though initially offered as a temporary reprieve and subsequently extended, the WFH relaxations announced in November did away with a lot of red tape for companies engaged not just in the IT / BPO sector but extended to other domains as well. Incidentally, as an industry magazine, Voice&Data had championed the causeway back in 2004. In an article published in the October 2004 edition of the magazine, the author had also called for the flexibility to enable WFH. In terms of policy space, do look out for the National Cyber Security Strategy even as it is unlikely to bite the bullet with a definitive stand on encryption. While still in the early days, production-linked incentives (PLI) may offer the much-needed booster shot for hardware manufacturing. However, consumers are already facing the brunt of increased prices of mobile handsets thanks to the impact of customs duty hike. Not content with the way content was being or perhaps not being moderated by over-the-top (OTT) players and digital news portals, the government formally brought these under the Ministry of Information and Broadcasting even as some of the industry players were putting up a self-regulatory institutional framework. Ban on certain mobile apps - so far in three tranches, is more profound in terms of signaling than their actual effect on the ground. Unlike the orders issued to licensed service providers by the Department of Telecommunications (DoT) marked 'Confidential' this time the orders were issued by the Ministry of Electronics & IT (MeitY) but more importantly, the lists were placed in the public domain. The trigger, apparently, was geopolitical skirmishes on the physical border that ensued a reaction in cyberspace. There was some action at the state level as well. Tamil Nadu launched a troika of policies spanning safe and ethical artificial intelligence (AI), cybersecurity, and blockchain. Thankfully, Kerala undid the amendment to the Police Act that would have given massive powers to police similar to those entailed within the Section 66A of the Information Technology Act that had been held ultra vires of the Constitution by the Supreme Court in March 2015. The traditional enterprise firewall was never sufficient but it did offer a sense of solace and power to the CISO and his team but the paradigm shift to the WFH dismantled this false sense of confidence. On the other hand, with the confidential documents co-residing with personal albums and games, children's study, and storybooks, they had to deal with CYOD (choose your own disaster) instead of BYOD (bring your own device). Finally, it dawned upon them that the cloud may have a silver lining, notwithstanding occasional breakdowns or non-availability. All the same, the impact of the digital divide also got amplified and these were not just in terms of rural and urban. These manifested even within families as generations and genders struggled and contested for network bandwidth, devices, and services. Millions lost livelihoods and many even lives, digital access often determined who survives and thrives. India ranks at 11 in the 2020 Affordability Report by the Alliance for Affordable Internet (A4AI) notwithstanding one of the lowest mobile data tariffs and the maximum mobile data consumption per subscription globally. While still in the early days, production-linked incentives may offer the much-needed booster shot for hardware manufacturing in India. 2021: Hope is e ternal One can predict with conviction and with reasonable confidence that WFH would lead to prevalence and acceptance of flexible and hybrid work being a more accepted norm. It could even emerge as a de facto mode of working for certain functions or organizations, much after the COVID-19 pandemic is gone. The same goes for migration to the cloud and managed security. Of course, many enterprises would continue their pursuit for 'digital transformation' even if just by using some catchphrase in their vision, mission, branding, or even in the name, reminiscent of the dot com boom. AI is the other flavor of the season, having surpassed blockchain, but more pragmatic applications are likely to emerge thereby mellowing down the short-term hype while laying a foundation for long-term value creation. In terms of policy space, do look out for the National Cyber Security Strategy even as it is unlikely to bite the bullet with a definitive stand on encryption. However, any and all efforts are welcome towards enhanced consistency, capacity building, and coordination - across centers and states; across domestic and international; and across public, civic, and private sectors. It would be wonderful if it could mandate ten percent of all IT budgets in the public sector to be set aside for cybersecurity. After all, a lot of computerization in the public sector began only after the Prime Minister's IT Task Force in 1998 had recommended earmarking one to three percent of the budget of every ministry and department for IT. And yes, digital adoption would continue apace especially in education, healthcare, financial services, and government services. However, only supply-side endeavors would not suffice as has already been seen this year when millions of students could not continue effective education due to lack or poor availability of connectivity. Time is ripe for the National AI Strategy as well. With progress in Natural Language Processing (NLP), investment in 'smart, safe and secure' infrastructure to generate continuous streams of 'open data' should indeed be leveraged, provided it passes the basic doctrinal tests prescribed by the Supreme Court in its 2017 privacy judgment. On the spectrum auction front, there is a lot of action that the country needs to take. The government should have steel nerves to fight the temptation for revenue maximization via limiting supply and keeping high reserved prices despite precarious fiscal and economic challenges. If the JPC recommends expanding the ambit to include non-personal data within the PDP Bill, the legislative timeframe may shift to 2022 and some influence of geo-politics developments is inevitable. Competition authorities around the world are sharpening their scrutiny of Big Tech, especially in the US and Europe. Likewise, the Competition Commission of India is also likely to enhance its engagement and would likely expand its scrutiny but it is anybody's guess about their impact under the current legislative framework limitations. One does hope that in addition to numerous supply-side interventions like fiberization and setting up of community Wi-Fi networks, we would see complementary nudge to spur demand towards realising 'meaningful and affordable connectivity' through means like direct benefit transfers (DBT) from USO Fund towards end-user devices and services for the needy. On the other hand, fiber-to-the-home (FTTH) has now become a reality, even if in select urban localities. Ditto about the Wi-Fi on domestic flights to keep one connected on the ground even when one is flying sky high. Considering the ongoing trend towards digitalization, it would be best to have a Unified Digital Policy Framework coming out from the PMO. Beyond now and here Considering the ongoing trend towards ubiquitous and pervasive digitalisation, it would be best to have a Unified Digital Policy Framework coming out from the Prime Minister's Office that should act as the guiding star for all other policies. Quantum computing, 6G, and ethical use of AI would need broader consultations, deliberations, and participation. Till such time, various policies, legislations, and regulations would keep popping up regularly from different ministries, departments, agencies, and even states! After all, digital technologies have become a de facto concurrent subject in India. In the meanwhile, India would continue to chug along its digital journey. After all, 'digital' represents a mindset change rather than just a technological advancement.

You might have heard about 'Bebinca', 'Doce', 'Pinagre' and other sweets and savouries in Goa. But, we bet that you might not have heard about these three desserts which have been part of Goa's cuisine for a long, long time and till date, people continue to relish them.The arrival of the sweets to GoaThe Portuguese were one of many who influenced Goa's cuisine. They brought several changes to the Goan platter and food habits of the local people. They were responsible for bringing in influences from Europe, Africa, the Americas and some parts of Asia.Since they controlled many colonies, several fruits, recipes and other things made their way into Goa. Experiments in food continued, and due to this, Goa's cuisine is a series of adaptations, assimilations and westernization.Desserts were one of the most cherished parts of the meal. People would make it a point to enjoy a good desert after a heavy meal. It completed the meal. Even the cooks and caterers, who catered for Portuguese meals and other occasions, had to learn these dishes well, as the Portuguese were very particular about the taste of these dishes.Some of these families, or bakeries, which catered to the Portuguese officials, continue to the keep these recipes close to their hearts, and prepare them, even today.The convent connectionInterestingly, Old Goa housed the Convent of Santa Monica. The nuns here were very skilled when it came to making sweets and savouries. Some nuns would send gifts of dainty confectionaries and savouries to members of the congregation, due to which, some believe that they have the best kept recipes secrets.Some of the popular sweets like Doce, Bebinca, Pasties de Natas, Queijadinhas do conde, Bolinhos, etc. were commonly made in the convent.Now that you know how they made their way into Goa's culinary list, you can go ahead and try them! They can be found at several places in Goa.1. SerraduraLove pudding? Here is an interesting dessert, brought in by the Portuguese - Serradura. The Portuguese name 'Serradura' translates into 'Sawdust'. Sounds odd, right? Why would someone give a dish this name? Well, the pudding made with condensed milk and cream, has biscuit powder (Marie Biscuits) sprinkled on top, giving it the texture of 'sawdust', and that is how the dessert gets its name. It looks like a simple pudding, but the taste is unmatchable!To prepare it, you need to first refrigerate condensed milk and cream for half a day. After that, cream and milk needs to be blended together. Once this is done, the biscuits (Marie Biscuits) have to be powdered, and three-fourth of it needs to be put in a bowl. Once this is done, the blended cream and milk mixture needs to be added. The remaining biscuit powder can be sprinkled on the top. It can be frozen for nearly 12 hours. If you are running out of time and want it to be quick, you could add dissolved gelatin to the mixture and remove it from the freezer within 30 minutes, prior to serving. Today, there are various places that serve 'Serradura', some of which are a little innovative.Where to find it?- Hotel Anandashram, 31st January Road, Panjim- Pastry Cottage, Dr Atmaram Borkar Rd, Altinho, Panaji- Global to Local, Fontainhas, PanjimSerradura topped with biscuit powder2. Bolo Sans RivalWe bet you haven't heard about 'Bolo Sans Rival' - a dessert that is known for its richness and taste, but rarely found in Goa. Believed to be brought in by the Portuguese, its origin is contested. Made from cashew (and previously from almonds), some say it came from France, via the Portuguese, who introduced it as Gateau Sans Rival, while some believe it is classic Filipino dessert which could have its origin in South East Asia. The name 'Bolo' in Portuguese means cake, while 'sans rival' comes from the French phrase meaning 'without rival'. It is made with layers of meringue sandwich together with buttercream. The rectangular cake, made using buttermilk, meringue and egg yolk, was earlier made of almonds, and later, is began to be made with cashew nuts.The rarity of this dessert is due to various reasons - some people are simply unaware, while others who know how to make it, have kept the recipe a secret - and hence, there are few who prepare it with great skill and love. In the olden days, too, it wasn't common as people would make it on special occasions such as birthdays and weddings.There are few outlet that prepare this dish, which is gaining quiet a following because it gluten-free.Where to find it?- Horse Shoe Bar & Restaurant, Panjim. - Nostalgia, Raia. - The Goan Kitchen, Loutolim.Indira Borges of IBake, Aldona. A slice of delicious Bolo Sans Rival3. AletriaThis is another custard-type dessert, made with vermicelli (aletria). It is one of the traditional dishes found in Portugal. For this dish, the aletria is cooked with sweetened milk, and flavoured with cinnamon and lemon. It is then that the pasta is mixed with egg yolks, and placed in a flat baking pan, and left to set. It is decorated in a crisscross pattern. This is a rare find in Goa; there are hardly any places that still make it. Usually, it would be made during Christmas in the past.Where to find it?- Luizinha Stores, Municipal Market, Mapusa- Pastry Cottage, Dr Atmaram Borkar Rd, Altinho, PanajiAletria are decorated in a crisscross pattern Goa's famed 'Xacuti' is much more than just a delicious dish; it's what's keeping Goa together!

Charles Leclerc is having a dream season in motorsports. After leading the 2022 World Championship chart, Leclerc will now be seen in the centre of the F1 22 cover. The 24-year-old Ferrari driver has become the official brand ambassador for the Formula One video game series. Interestingly, Leclerc has replaced seven-time world champion Lewis Hamilton, who was the brand ambassador in the past instalments. Fellow young F1 drivers Lando Norris and George Russell will also appear beside Leclerc on F1 22's cover page. However, this is Leclerc's promotion on the cover page as earlier he has appeared alongside senior pros Max Verstappen and Lewis Hamilton on the F1 2021 cover. Also, Hamilton and the 2021 F1 world champion will appear on the F1 22 but on the champions edition, featuring world champions Sebastian Vettel and Fernando Alonso. EA Sports has released a statement regarding the significant development and stated that Leclerc had become their first choice because they want to target youngsters and new talents in motorsports who will define the new era of F1. F1 Senior Creative Director at Codemasters, Lee Mather, was quoted by PlanetF1, "Leclerc has the potential to become an F1 world champion. F1 22 is celebrating the best young talent in F1, and we are excited to build a deeper relationship with Charles Leclerc." "Established as part of the new era of Formula 1, we will work with Charles throughout the season to bring our players closer to the action," he added. The Ferrari driver has shown exceptional performance this season, bagging three podiums from the four races, including two race wins. The Monegasque driver is comfortably leading the title race with 86 points, and the next driver to him is the reigning champion Max Verstappen with only 59 points. However, Leclerc's Imola GP race was not up to the mark as he set for a third-place finish until a late crash saw him drop to sixth. Leclerc's mistake caps a disappointing home race for Ferrari after Carlos Sainz retired following a lap-one crash. ### Response:

Los Angeles: The Academy of Motion Picture Arts and Sciences (AMPAS) has reacted to the infamous slap-gate incident involving actors Will Smith and Chris Rock during the Oscars ceremony, saying that it does not support "violence of any form". Smith, who picked up his maiden best actor Oscar trophy for playing Richard Williams in "King Richard", during the ceremony strode to the stage minutes earlier and landed a punch on Rock after the comedian cracked a joke about his wife Jada Pinkett-Smith. After the ceremony concluded, the official Twitter handle of AMPAS posted a brief statement, saying, "The Academy does not condone violence of any form. Tonight we are delighted to celebrate our 94th Academy Awards winners, who deserve this moment of recognition from their peers and movie lovers around the world." The exchange started when Rock came on stage to announce the winners for best documentary feature award. Before revealing the winner, Rock decided to land a joke on Pinkett-Smith, saying that she could star in the sequel to "G.I. Jane", to which she was seen rolling her eyes. The joke was in reference to Pinkett-Smith's shaved head because of autoimmune disorder alopecia but it didn't go down well with Smith, who went up to the stage and punched Rock, leaving everybody in attendance shocked over the events. After receiving the jab from the actor, Rock said, "Wow. Will Smith just smacked the s**t out of me." Once he reached back to his seat, Smith shouted at Rock, saying, "Keep my wife's name out of your f**king mouth!". After Rock announced the winners of the best documentary feature award, Diddy was the next presenter during the ceremony. The rapper, who appeared to introduce the 50th anniversary celebration to The Godfather , addressed the situation by saying, "Will and Chris, we're going to solve that like a family. Right now we're moving on with love. Everybody make some noise." Meanwhile, the Los Angeles Police Department issued a statement, revealing that Rock had declined to file a police report. "LAPD investigative entities are aware of an incident between two individuals during the Academy Awards program. The incident involved one individual slapping another. "The individual involved has declined to file a police report. If the involved party desires a police report at a later date, LAPD will be available to complete an investigative report," the LAPD statement read. Smith referenced the incident in his emotional acceptance speech, summing it up as "love will make you do crazy things". "Thank you Denzel (Washington), who said to me a few minutes ago. he said, 'at your highest moment, be careful, that's when the devil comes for you'," he said. The 53-year-old actor also apologised to the Academy for the incident in his speech. "I want to apologise to the academy. I want to apologise to all my fellow nominees. Art imitates life. I look like the crazy father just like they said about Richard Williams. But love will make you do crazy things," the actor said through tears. ### Response:

Later on Tuesday, four additional accused were remanded to NCB custody till October 11, 2021. All sixteen accused were arrested by NCB after a raid was conducted on Cordelia Cruises' Empress ship based on specific information of a supposed rave party.Special Public Prosecutor Advait Sethna appearing for the NCB submitted before the Court on Wednesday that the four accused were part of the organising team of the party which was to be conducted on the cruise. He informed the Court that "after much deliberation" against these four accused, NCB had invoked Section 25 (punishment for allowing premises) and 27A (punishment for financing illicit traffic and harbouring offenders) of the Narcotic Drugs and Psychotropic Substances Act.Elaborating on this submission, Sethna stated in the present case, NCB had arrested some persons before boarding the ship and some accused were arrested after the boarding onto the ship. After the ship was brought back to the shore, the another raid was conducted and seizures were made.That the present accused were intercepted before the boarding onto the cruise, and despite express objection, the ship sailed, Sethna argued, lead to the harbouring of the offenders on the ship.Advocates Harsh Gangurde briefed by Sajal Yadav opposed the remand stating that their detention was illegal.

Under fire for the Lakhimpur-Kheri incident in which 4 farmers lost their lives, Union MoS Home Ajay Mishra's son Ashish Mishra denied that he was present at the spot. He expressed willingness for a judicial inquiry into the matter and demanded that the culprits be punished. Speaking exclusively to Republic TV, Ashish Mishra asserted that he was present in the annual 'Dangal' event organised in the Banbirpur village when the ghastly incident took place. Rejecting the allegation that he mowed down and shot dead farmers, Ashish Mishra remarked, "This is false. I was present at the primary school in the Banbirpur village where Dangal was organised from 9 am to the end of the programme. The biggest proof of this is that about 2500-3000 persons, administrative officials, wrestlers and shopkeepers were present. Hari Om was our driver who was killed at the spot. From our side, 6-7 persons are missing out of which 4 have been confirmed dead." Earlier, his father and Union MoS Home defended Ashish Mishra and contended that the latter would not have been alive had he been in the car. Explaining the sequence of events, he told Republic TV, "This programme happens in our ancestral village every year. The Deputy CM was going there as the Chief Guest. We got information that farmers are doing a demonstration and trying to show black flags. So, the administration diverted our route. So, we were going through another route. Our party workers were coming to receive the Deputy CM. While they were on the way, there were attacked by rowdy elements among farmers". AAP demands CBI probe into Lakhimpur Kheri violence that killed 8, including 4 farmers "They threw stones at the cars after which they stopped. Thereafter, they were forcefully dragged from the cars and were beaten by lathis, dandas and swords. The death of three party workers has been confirmed. Our driver was killed. They burnt our car and pushed it from the road," Ajay Mishra added. What happened at Lakhimpur Kheri? Farmers were protesting against the three farm laws ahead of an event in Uttar Pradesh's Lakhimpur-Kheri district on October 3 where UP Deputy CM Keshav Prasad Maurya was invited as the Chief Guest. Since the morning, the protesters had gathered with black flags at the helipad in the Maharaja Agrasen Ground in Tikonia where Maurya was scheduled to land. Thereafter, violence erupted between farmers and BJP workers leaving 8 persons including 4 farmers dead and many others injured. As per the Samyukta Kisan Morcha, Union MoS Home Ajay Mishra's son Ashish Mishra came with three vehicles around the time the farmers were dispersing from their protest. Haryana CM calls farmers' protest a 'political agenda', highlights farmer welfare schemes It claimed, "He mowed down farmers and towards the end also attacked SKM leader Tajinder Singh Virk directly, by trying to run a vehicle over him. There were also shots fired, and one of the deaths was by this shooting by Ashish Mishra and his team". The SKM, which is the umbrella body of several farm organizations protesting at the Delhi borders seeking the repeal of the agrarian laws, demanded that Ashish Mishra and others involved in the attack should be booked for murder besides seeking the ouster of Ajay Mishra from the Union Council of Ministers. Mamata Banerjee lashes out at BJP's 'apathy toward farmers' after Lakhimpur Kheri incident Terming the incident as very sad and unfortunate, UP CM Yogi Adityanath promised that the state government will expose the elements involved in the incident and take strict action against them. While ADG LO, ACS Agriculture, IG Range and the Commissioner are present on the spot, Section 144 has been imposed and the entry of political leaders has been barred. High drama ensued on Monday morning as Congress general secretary Priyanka Gandhi Vadra was detained at Hargaon while she was on the way to Lakhimpur-Kheri.

A fortnight ago, the Karnataka government banned online gambling in the state. The ban extended to all kinds of gambling, including "any act of risking money or otherwise on the unknown result of an event including on a game of skill".Read all the latest updates on COVID-19 here. This demolishes the subtle difference between what used to be categorised as a "game of chance", where the outcome is not based on anything that the players do, versus a "game of skill", wherein, the outcome may be based on the skills of the players involved. Karnataka is not the first government to ban online gambling. In fact, even before ban on online gambling, we had seen ban on even video games. On November 19, 1981, President Ferdinand Marcos of the Philippines, banned video games in the country through a presidential decree, making the Philippines the first nation to forbid video games. Then again, in July 2016, the then president of the Philippines announced that he planned to stop the proliferation of online gambling in the country and revoke existing licences. He specifically targeted Pagcor, a popular online gambling game. He blamed it for "proliferation of gambling activities all over the country." He later changed his stance and went ahead with regulating the gaming industry. This earned him significant tax revenues. However, a few years later, the move snowballed into a geopolitical issue with their not-so-friendly neighbour China breathing down fire on the Philippines for not banning these gambling apps as they made their way into China. President Duterte made it clear that banning of such online games would have considerable negative impact on the Philippines economy. However, this again changed in April of this year. The Philippines banned online gambling not because they were harming the youth or the general population, but because the live streaming of the games was choking the internet. Closer home, we saw a string of attempts to ban online gaming or gambling. The words gaming and gambling are being interchangeably used and essentially imply playing online games after betting on the outcome with real money. Starting with Andhra Pradesh and Telangana, Tamil Nadu, Odisha, Sikkim and Nagaland have also banned online games that involve any money. The bans had different hues with some states banning all kinds of online games that involved betting. Others maintained the fine difference between game of chance and game of skill. However, in all cases, they were driven by the need to protect ordinary citizens who were falling for the instantaneous, anywhere, anytime gambling access that were ruining lives and families leading to suicides. As a responsible government, one has to address the situation. It is not an easy issue to resolve, as the governments have been accused of interfering with the lives of people. Businesses that provided such services and built up multi-billion-dollar valuations, have taken up cudgels against the state governments for banning online gambling. In fact, the ban of online gambling by the government of Tamil Nadu was appealed against in the Madras High Court. Unlike the case of Telangana and Andhra Pradesh, the Tamil Nadu law did not put a blanket ban on offering online games. Online games involving skill continued to be exempted from the application of the restrictions under the Tamil Nadu Gaming Act. However, the honourable high court of Tamil Nadu struck down the Tamil Nadu Gaming Act terming it as "excessive and disproportionate" and being ultra vires. We now see the gaming industry promptly approaching the Karnataka High Court to appeal against the recent Karnataka amendments to the Karnataka Police Act, 1963 that banned all forms of gambling in the state, including online gambling. India's online gaming industry is expected to reach $3 billion by 2022. In the last five years, the sector has attracted over $350 million in venture capital investments from many marquee investors such as Tiger Global, Sequoia, Raine, Tencent, Kalaari, Chryscapital and Matrix. Naturally, the industry is not happy and those who were getting employment due to the gaming industry are also not happy. There have been many counter-arguments such as the need to restore the differentiation between the game of chance and game of skill, and to enable the game of skill to continue. Arguments have been put forth that even trading in stock market is betting, and is akin to a game of chance. Also, online gaming is recreational and was a relief to many who were locked down in their homes during the Wuhan Covid pandemic. So, should the state really ban online gaming in India? Should the government be telling adults what to do and what not to do when such people are not harming anyone else and minding their own business? Should governments interfere with people's lives? The questions do carry weight. Just like the Philippines came back to allow online gaming by providing a regulated environment, states in India are also considering regulations that can enable online gaming to operate with safeguards. Telangana is now working on a policy to allow players to operate in the state with safeguards. However, it would not be easy to do such fine policy tight-walk in the matter, given the civil-society pressures that build up every time there is a suicide due to online gaming. Here again is a challenge that is being posed by technology to the regulators, wherein regulatory frameworks are a step behind technology. Online gaming like many things borne out of technological developments can provide joy and also destroy people and families. It would be interesting to see how we evolve as a society to create a safe operating environment for online gaming.

Satyajit Ray birth anniversary: It has been more than six decades since Satyajit Ray's Pather Panchali was released. The film based on a story by noted Bengali author Bibhutibhushan Bandopadhyay had changed the way Indian cinema was viewed by the world audience. It was Pather Panchali that marked the debut of Ray, who went on to become one of the most proclaimed filmmakers India ever produced. The legend that was born with the 1955 film would be celebrating his 99th birthday on Monday, May 2, if he were alive. Pather Panchali went on to win 11 international awards, and is still considered a masterpiece. While the film, its plot, narration and cinematography got rave reviews across the world, legendary Japanese filmmaker Akira Kurosawa possibly had the most generous words. "The quiet but deep observation, understanding and love of the human race, which are characteristic of all his films, have impressed me greatly. . I feel that he is a "giant" of the movie industry.Not to have seen the cinema of Ray means existing in the world without seeing the sun or the moon," Kurosawa had said in Moscow in 1975, according to satyajitray.org, a website dedicated to the Indian filmmaker. "I can never forget the excitement in my mind after seeing it (Pather Panchali). It is the kind of cinema that flows with the serenity and nobility of a big river," Kurosawa said, as reported by Ekshan film magazine in 1987. He also said Ray's cinematographic technique had nothing "irrelevant or haphazard", and that was the "secret of its excellence". "People are born, live out their lives, and then accept their deaths. Without the least effort and without any sudden jerks, Ray paints his picture, but its effect on the audience is to stir up deep passions. How does he achieve this? There is nothing irrelevant or haphazard in his cinematographic technique. In that lies the secret of its excellence," Kurosawa said about Ray. In 1992, the Academy of Motion Picture Arts and Sciences conferred the Honorary Oscar Award on Ray, which he could not collect in person due to ill health. "In recognition of his rare mastery of the art of motion pictures, and of his profound humanitarian outlook, which has had an indelible influence on filmmakers and audiences throughout the world," the citation read, according to the website mentioned above. ### Response:

By PTI NEW DELHI: The world cups of shooting may not carry Olympic qualification status in the near future as the sport's global governing body contemplates restricting the quota places to only the world championships and continental tournaments. The International Shooting Sport Federation (ISSF) has been planning to introduce changes to its Olympic qualification criteria for a while now and the system used for the recently-concluded Tokyo Games is unlikely to be there for the 2024 Paris edition. This was confirmed to PTI by an insider in the National Rifle Association of India (NRAI), which has in its possession the ISSF documents related to the proposed changes in the qualification criteria for the multi-sporting showpiece. "The ISSF has sent its material to the federations regarding the changes. So, once the proposal is approved, the world cups will not carry quota places, which will be there in only the world championships and the continental tournaments," he said on the condition of anonymity. In the wake of the Indian shooters' disappointing outing at the Tokyo Olympics despite entering the Games with a few medal contenders, a school of thought has emerged that they took part in too many ISSF world cups, thereby exposing themselves to the participants from other nations ahead of their biggest challenge. "It was felt by many that the Indian shooters competed in too many world cups. Now if there is a change, they can choose which world cup to participate in and which to skip. That way they will not end up participating in every tournament," the source said. Also the existing MQS (Minimum Qualification Score) could be replaced by MOQS (Minimum Olympic Qualification Score), and if NRAI sources are to believed, a shooter will need to reach a minimum score set by the ISSF to go to the Olympics. "Though it is comparatively tougher to get quotas in the world championships in which the entries are the highest, there will also be the continental events like the Asian Shooting Championships which will offer more quota places than before. Even the world championships will probably carry more quota places than before with the world cups shorn of qualifying status." Around 360 shooters from as many as 100 countries participated across 15 events at the Tokyo Olympics shooting competition. India's 15-strong squad failed to win a single medal, returning empty-handed from the Games for the second straight time, five years after the disaster in Rio 2016. The MQS is a minimum score that a shooter "must have recorded at least once in the set timeframe, in order to become eligible" to take part in the Olympic Games or in the Youth Olympic Games. The Minimum Qualification Scores for each shooting event are designated by the ISSF. The qualification system for shooting is based on quota places. ### Response:

By Zafarul-Islam Khan Our long struggle and sacrifices for freedom which led to independence in 1947 and framing of a constitution three years later had dreams for the country. We wanted a society where interests of the poorest will be taken care of while framing and implementing policies. Where a level playing field will be afforded to all. Where there will be no hatred and discrimination. Our Constitution guaranteed Right to equality in society and in front of law, right to freedom, right to personal safety, right to constitutional remedies, right to equal treatment by the State, right to believe or not to believe in any faith, right to marry whom one wants, right to live where one wants, right to personal safety, right to privacy, right to justice… Over the years we toiled making much progress to achieve our ideals.Read all the latest updates on COVID-19 here. We built strong institutions, we put in place mechanisms of checks and balances. Mistakes like Emergency were committed but were soon corrected either by the rulers or by the people of India. Our journey on the way of equality, democracy, socialism and secularism was interrupted when Hindutva made a big entry into politics in mid-1980s and adopted an old dispute over the Babri Masjid, finally leading to its demolition at the hands of bigoted mobs in December 1992. The dream of a secular and socialist India was dented with the demolition of the old mosque. Indian polity has not been the same ever since. A political party riding the Hindutva wave started winning elections on the basis of hate and othering a part of the country's population. This party ruled India during 1999-2004 but since it was saddled at the time by a large coalition of small political parties, it was not free to realise its Hindutva dreams but helped spread the fiction of Muslim terror in India. Its Home Minister, L K Advani, used to repeat ad nauseum, "Not every Muslim is a terrorist but every terrorist is a Muslim." Election results of 2014, with a larger majority and headed by a person who had overseen the Gujarat riots 2002, gave Hindutva a big push. The party came to power with big promises and claimed to work for progress of all but what slowly unfolded was a policy of hate against the two main minorities in the country, Muslims and Christians. Pressures on Christians eased within the next two years (apparently due to foreign pressure) but continued against Muslims. It took many forms and shapes like lynchings in the name of beef and cow slaughter or smuggling, so-called "Love Jihad," and the so-called plan to convert Hindus to Islam, Muslim "conspiracy" to raise their numbers in India, etc. A section of media was reigned in to start periodic campaigns against Muslims using any stray or fake incident, like claiming that Muslims were on purpose spreading Corona in the country. Ruling party leaders, MPs and even ministers went around making inflammatory and irresponsible speeches. They were never even reprimanded for their incendiary statements. Using this hate 24×7, the ruling party has kept Hindus busy and distracted from its colossal failures on every front, so much so that despite these failures it again won the general elections in 2019. This time it started implementing its long-term plans like depriving millions of Muslims of their Indian nationality in the name of implementing NRC/CAA leading to months-long huge Muslim protests all over the country, which could be curbed only using the COVID pandemic restrictions. Next came the unilateral abolition of the Article 370 of the Indian Constitution and converting the huge Jammu & Kashmir state into a Union Territory and snatching away Ladakh from it. India's great institutions are being weakened, diluted and made subservient to the ruling Hindutva ideology. Lynching, open anti-Muslim propaganda and calls for murder of Muslims have become common. Indian government is not moved by widespread national and international condemnation of these policies so much so that when the visiting American Secretary of State raised the issue of human rights in India, his Indian counterpart shot back that we are correcting historical wrongs.! A huge surveillance network has been installed keeping an eye what citizens say and think. Thousands of people have been arrested on "sedition," conversion, beef, and fake terror charges. Recently the Pegasus scandal has exposed the huge surveillance network this government has built to tame India's once vibrant civil society. This surveillance system and spying in various ways focuses not on criminals and terrorists but on secular critics and people perceived as political enemies by the rulers of the day. Human and civil rights and India's secular polity are in danger. An all-out effort is needed to redeem the dreams of the founders of independent India which is now being ruined by a retrograde fascist ideology. I have not lost hope but do realise that a long struggle awaits us to redeem our independence ideals. Zafarul-Islam Khan is a leading writer and researcher based in Delhi.

IPL 2022: On Thursday, Mumbai Indians lost their 7th straight game of IPL 2022 against Chennai Super Kings. This time it was a close game as the legendary MS Dhoni finished off the game in style when 4 was needed on the last ball. Chris Lynn , a former MI batter who was with the franchise from 2020-to 2021, in a recent conversation on ESPNcricinfo said that MI doesn't look like a team of 11 players. He thinks that there are factions everywhere on the side. Chris Lynn (Image Credit: Twitter) Mumbai Indians Are Not Playing As A Team Chris Lynn The former MI batter said that MI is looking like a team with low morale. The batter who played just 1 game for the franchise in his two years at the club said that the players aren't looking in the best shape. 'When you are down at the bottom of the table, guys like your captain, but also Kieron Pollard - he will be normally running in from deep mid-on or mid-off, helping out, calming him down,' Lynn said on ESPNcricinfo's T20 Time: Out show. 'We haven't seen that with Mumbai yet because they are starting to sort of break off into little groups and they just want to get off the field. And it's not a great sign. And I think the change room right now wouldn't be a great place to be in.' Lynn won the IPL with MI in 2020, it was their 5th title overall, and 2nd consecutive title. Comparing his time at the franchise with how things are right now in the camp, he said, 'Flipside of that, when they won the tournament two years ago, there were conversations happening all the time - how can we get better, how can we get out of the over. 'All those little organic conversations were happening without coaching staff telling them to do that because blokes were up and about wanting to win. So we are not seeing that, we are seeing the complete opposite: it seems like instead of a team of 11, there are 11 individuals out there.' Photo Credit: (IPL) He also mentioned that MI are in that phase where losing has become a habit for them, but he also hoped that MI would come good at some stage. 'Winning is a habit and losing is a habit, MI have got issues with the bat, with the ball, and in the field and mentally. It just seems like there are factions everywhere in the setup. 'So hopefully they can sort that out soon because when Mumbai is playing good cricket it is good for IPL, it's good for world cricket, and they are a very, very impressive side when they are doing well,' he added.

The Uttar Pradesh government has chalked out a time-bound strategy to transform the health sector, one of the top priorities of Chief Minister Yogi Adityanath. In a recent presentation before the Yogi 2.0 Cabinet, the Health Department revealed that equalising the ratio of doctors and nurses in two years through creation of more posts for nurses would be a priority for the next couple of years. Currently, doctors outnumber nurses in the state, with 19,011 sanctioned posts for doctors compared to 9,569 for nurses. The UP government will also distribute menstrual hygiene kits to teenage girls through schools and Accredited Social Health Activists (ASHA) in a phase-wise manner in the next two years. The state plans to build world-class hospitals on international and interstate borders, for the benefit of people from both sides of the border. The government also plans to build seven 50-bedded hospitals in Lucknow, Gorakhpur and Ghaziabad districts, in addition to 25 primary health centres in Varanasi, Ghazipur, Meerut and Mirzapur as well as 23 community health centres in Gorakhpur, Pratapgarh and Ghazipur. Besides, the government seeks to provide health insurance cover for auto drivers, health sakhis and anganwadi workers under the Ayushman Bharat Scheme. The government will collect information about the proposed beneficiaries from the Women's Welfare, Urban Development and Transport Departments. The Yogi government has also set an ambitious target of providing dialysis and CT scan facilities in all 75 districts in the next couple of years. The government will also increase the number of Newborn Stabilisation Units (NBSU), Special Newborn Care Units (SNCU) and First Referral Units from the current 180, 86 and 192 to 353, 99 and 250, respectively. In five years, the government aims to bring down the maternal mortality rate from 167 to 100; infant mortality rate from 41 to 28; neo-natal mortality rate from 30 to 20 and total fertility rate from 2.4 to 2.0. The government also plans to eradicate tuberculosis through raising awareness about the disease, identification of patients and their treatment and bring down the fatality rate.

"The counseling was scheduled to begin from October 25, 2021, was also initiated (in January 2022) after a delay due to pending decision on seat reservations and was further delayed owing Supreme Court ruling of March 31, 2022, which ordered the cancellation and conduction of special round of counseling for the mop-up round," the IMA said in its letter.New Delhi: The Indian Medical Association (IMA) has appealed to Union Health Minister Dr. Mansukh Mandaviya to postpone and reschedule the NEET-PG examination scheduled to be held on May 21. The NEET-PG students should have adequate time to prepare for the examination, the IMA said. In a letter sent to Mandaviya, IMA said that the NEET-PG examination 2021 was held 5 months after the scheduled date in the month of September 2021. "Then the counseling scheduled to begin from October 25, 2021, was also initiated (in January 2022) after a delay due to pending decision on seat reservations and was further delayed owing Supreme Court ruling of March 31, 2022, which ordered the cancellation and conduction of special round of counseling for the mop-up round," the IMA said in its letter. As a result of the delayed counseling schedule, NEET-PG 2022 was deferred from April 2022 to May 2022, so that the candidates could appear for the final stary vacancy round of NEET PG 2021 and can still have plenty of time for preparation and reappearance for the next NEET-PG 2022 examination if they failed to secure a seat this year. "However, the AIQ counseling anticipated to be completed by the end of March 2022, is still in process and is uncertain that it will end by May 7. The several states will also be finishing the counseling around the middle of May 2022," the IMA said in its letter. The IMA further said that the difference between the NEET-PG 2022 examination date and the completion of 2021 counseling was too short for an aspirant to prepare and appear for an extremely difficult examination like NEET-PG. "Another 5 to 10 thousand interns, who served as Covid warriors during Covid19 pandemic, are ineligible to appear for NEET-PG due to delay in completion of their final examination and consequently their internship beyond eligibility criteria set for the examination," the IMA highlighted.

A Chinese Foreign Ministry spokesperson announced on Thursday that the government has decided to impose sanctions against former US Secretary of State Mike Pompeo and 27 other high-ranking officials of the Trump administration, accusing them of "prejudice and hatred" against Beijing. The announcement came a day after Joe Biden was sworn in as the 46th President of the US on Wednesday. Former President Donald Trump did not attend the ceremony. Soon after, a spokeswoman for President Joe Biden's National Security Council said that the move was "unproductive and cynical," urging Americans from both parties to condemn the action. "Imposing these sanctions on Inauguration Day is seemingly an attempt to play to partisan divides," Biden's National Security Council spokeswoman Emily Horne said in a statement to Reuters. China's move to sanction former Trump administration officials Besides Pompeo, the other individuals include Peter Navarro (incumbent Director of the Office of Trade and Manufacturing Policy), Robert O'Brien (former National Security Adviser), David R. Stilwell (former Assistant Secretary for the Bureau of East Asian and Pacific Affairs), Matthew Pottinger (former Deputy National Security Advisor), Alex Azar (former Secretary of Health and Human Services), Keith J. Krach (incumbent Under Secretary of State for Economic Growth, Energy, and the Environment), and Kelly Craft (former Ambassador to the UN), John Bolton (former National Security Advisor) and Stephen K. Bannon (former White House Chief Strategist), reported agencies. The spokesperson said that these individuals "have been mainly responsible for a series of crazy US moves on China-related issues". "These individuals and their immediate family members are prohibited from entering the mainland, Hong Kong and Macao of China. "They and companies and institutions associated with them are also restricted from doing business with China," the spokesperson said. In a statement, the Foreign Ministry said: "Over the past few years, some anti-China politicians in the US, out of their selfish political interests and prejudice and hatred against China and showing no regard for the interests of the Chinese and American people, have planned, promoted and executed the crazy moves which have gravely interfered in China's internal affairs, undermined China's interests, offended the Chinese people, and seriously disrupted China-US relations." The spokesperson further said that the Beijing government was "firmly resolved to defend China's national sovereignty, security and development interests". Addressing a press briefing on Wednesday, Foreign Ministry spokeswoman Hua Chunying claimed that the Trump administration had made numerous "fundamental mistakes", resulting in "serious damage" to bilateral ties. US Look at China Hua hoped that the new administration under Biden would "look at China rationally and objectively, meet China halfway and, in the spirit of mutual respect, equality and mutual benefit, push China-US relations back to the right track of healthy and stable development as soon as possible", CNN reported. Thursday's announcement came more than a week after Pompeo on January 11 announced that the US would lift decades-old restrictions on contacts between American and Taiwanese officials, a decision which prompted threats from China. In another statement which came less than 24 hours before leaving office, the former Secretary of State declared that China "has committed genocide against the predominantly Muslim Uyghurs and other ethnic and religious minority groups in Xinjiang". "I believe this genocide is ongoing, and that we are witnessing the systematic attempt to destroy Uyghurs by the Chinese party-state," he added. The Trump administration had also directly blamed China for the global coronavirus crisis.

Game of Thrones star Kit Harington, after spending over a decade playing just one character says he now wants to take up parts that are not time-consuming.Read all the latest updates on COVID-19 here. Harington rose to fame with his role as Jon Snow, a brooding warrior, in the HBO epic fantasy show that ended in May 2019 after eight seasons. On being asked about his future, the actor told PTI, "I'm terrible at answering this question because I never really got much of a plan. I just go where the writing looks good and the thing works with my life. And I try and pick the parts that I find interesting." Harington, 34, currently features in Amazon Prime Video's Modern Love and in the episode Strangers on a (Dublin) Train, opposite Lucy Boynton. "I did this (Modern Love) because it was a bit lighter. You know, for 10 years I did possibly the least comic character on TV. Like literally could not crack a joke. And when they did give me a joke, it just didn't work. So, doing something like Modern Love, where there's a bit of humour and lightness, just felt like a very refreshing thing to do," he said. "I love the anthology stuff. This is an anthology piece. I did Criminal, which I loved. I'm doing another piece of this, which is quite similar. "It kind of gives me the opportunity to jump in, tell this little story and get out. And then that little tiny chamber piece exists and hopefully speaks to people. But it's very manageable," Harington added. He also went on to talk about why else did he take up a project like Modern Love. ".I'm doing those single pieces because I spent ten years doing one character. So I want to vary up what I'm doing and do as many things as I can. And I don't want to get tied into necessarily this same character for a long period of time. I've done that for a while." Harington described Modern Love as a "high-budget indie movie" that was totally opposite to Game of Thrones. "In many ways, I would describe the experience of Modern Love as sort of like a high-budget indie movie in a weird sort of way. It feels very opposite to Game of Thrones, which felt like a big-budget movie. This was a small crew, an intimate way of shooting but with a healthy budget that can make it look amazing," he said. "That's a really satisfying way of working. It's like doing a little short film. It was half an hour or 40 minutes, which is about a week's worth of work. And then it was very condensed and I could really concentrate on that story," he added. Based on the New York Times column and podcast of the same name, Modern Love has been created by John Carney. The show features stand-alone stories and explores love in its many forms - including sexual, romantic, familial, platonic, and self-love. In his episode, Strangers on a (Dublin) Train, which is set in March 2020 when the coronavirus pandemic began, the actor plays Michael who meets Paula (Boynton) on a train from Galway to Dublin. Harington referred to Michael as a "nice guy and slightly uptight", who is not a "cool dude" like his brother Declan, played by Jack Reynor in the episode. "Michael is slightly buttoned-up, tense and anxious. I can relate to that. I think that there's a part of me (in there). It was nice transporting yourself back to a place where you sort of might be on a train and you might meet another person and have that flutter of luck that this could be love. "I'm well past that now. I'm in a marriage. But it was nice to kind of live that kind of dream in my head somewhere," he said.

As COVID positive cases show a declining trend, the Jammu and Kashmir Government on Sunday lifted the weekend COVID curfew in all districts of the Union Territory (UT). Night curfew, however, shall continue in all the districts, according to a government order by issued Chief Secretary, chairperson, State Executive Committee, Arun Kumar Mehta after a review meeting with the additional Chief Secretary, Health and Medical Education; Principal Secretary to Government, Home; Divisional Commissioners, Deputy Commissioners, Superintendents of Police and other officers of Jammu and Kashmir.Read all the latest updates on COVID-19 here. For the first time after three months, the COVID-induced curfew has been lifted from all the 20 districts of Jammu and Kashmir. "It was observed that as compared to the previous weeks, significant improvement has been made by all the districts in respect of the above parameters. However, there is a need to continue with some of the existing COVID containment measures in all the districts because of the uneven trend in the daily COVID cases," the order reads. Personal attendance of limited vaccinated staff The State Executive Committee also permitted the public and private educational institutions to seek personal attendance of limited vaccinated staff for administrative purposes. Also, the maximum number of people permitted to attend any indoor/ outdoor gathering shall be restricted to 25. All Deputy Commissioners have been asked to focus on the positivity rates of the Medical-Blocks under their jurisdictions. "Intensified measures, related to Covid management and restriction of activities, will have to be taken by the DCs in these Blocks." "There shall be a renewed focus on Panchavat level mapping of cases and micro-containment zones shall be constituted wherever unusual spike of cases is noticed," the order said, adding, "The DCs shall keep active track of the positivity rates in the Blocks and consider implementing stricter control measures in closed clustered spaces like Public/ Private Offices, Community halls, Malls, Bazaars, etc., in case weekly positivity rate goes beyond 4 percent in these Blocks." J&K reports 166 new positive cases On Sunday, the Jammu and Kashmir Government informed that 166 new positive cases of Coronavirus - 34 from Jammu division and 132 from Kashmir Valley have been reported today, thus taking the total number of positive cases in Jammu and Kashmir to 32,0657. Moreover, 197 more COVID-19 patients have recovered and been discharged from various hospitals including 79 from Jammu Division and 118 from Kashmir Division. Besides, 99.32 percent of the population above the age of 45 years has been vaccinated across Jammu and Kashmir. It was also informed that no new confirmed case of Mucormycosis has been reported today, thus the total number of confirmed cases remains 35 in the UT of J&K.

Washington [US], January 23 (ANI): A recent report published in the journal Proceedings of the Royal Society A, show that social distancing measures alone do not provide adequate protection from the virus, and further emphasise the vital importance of ventilation and face masks in order to slow the spread of COVID-19.The researchers, from the University of Cambridge and Imperial College London, used mathematical models to show how SARS-CoV-2 - the virus which causes COVID-19 - spreads in different indoor spaces, depending on the size, occupancy, ventilation, and whether masks are being worn. These models are also the basis of a free online tool, Airborne.cam, which helps users understand how ventilation and other measures affect the risk of indoor transmission, and how that risk changes over time.The researchers found that when two people are in a poorly-ventilated space and neither is wearing a mask, prolonged talking is far more likely to spread the virus than a short cough. When speaking, we exhale smaller droplets, or aerosols, which spread easily around a room, and accumulate if ventilation is not adequate. In contrast, coughing expels more large droplets, which are more likely to settle on surfaces after they are emitted.It only takes a matter of seconds for aerosols to spread over two meters when masks are not worn, implying that physical distancing in the absence of c is not sufficient to provide safety for long exposure times. When masks of any kind are worn, however, they slow the breath's momentum and filter a portion of the exhaled droplets, in turn reducing the amount of virus in aerosols that can spread through space.The scientific consensus is that the vast majority of COVID-19 cases are spread through indoor transmission - whether via aerosols or droplets. And as was predicted in the summer and autumn, now that winter has arrived in the northern hemisphere and people are spending more time indoors, there has been a corresponding rise in the number of COVID-19 cases."Our knowledge of airborne transmission of SARS-CoV-2 has evolved at an incredible pace when you consider that it's been just a year since the virus was identified," said Dr Pedro de Oliveira from Cambridge's Department of Engineering, and the paper's first author."There are different ways to approach this problem. In our work, we consider the wide range of respiratory droplets humans exhale to demonstrate different scenarios of airborne viral transmission - the first being the quick spread of small infectious droplets over several metres in a matter of a few seconds, which can happen both indoors and outdoors. Then, we show how these small droplets can accumulate in indoor spaces in the long term, and how this can be mitigated with adequate ventilation," added Oliveira. The researchers used mathematical models to calculate the amount of virus contained in exhaled particles, and to determine how these evaporate and settle on surfaces. In addition, they used characteristics of the virus, such as its decay rate and viral load in infected individuals, to estimate the risk of transmission in an indoor setting due to normal speech or a short cough by an infectious person. For instance, they show that the infection risk after speaking for one hour in a typical lecture room was high, but the risk could be decreased significantly with adequate ventilation.Based on their models, the researchers have now built Airborne.cam, a free, open-source tool which can be used by those managing public spaces, such as shops, workplaces, and classrooms, in order to determine whether ventilation is adequate. The tool is already in use in several academic departments at the University of Cambridge.The tool is now a requirement for any higher-risk spaces at the University, enabling departments to easily identify hazards and control-measure changes needed to ensure aerosols are not allowed to become a risk to health."The tool can help people use fluid mechanics to make better choices, and adapt their day-to-day activities and surroundings in order to suppress risk, both for themselves and for others," said co-author Savvas Gkantonas, who led the development of the app with Dr de Oliveira.(ANI) ANI ### Response:

New Delhi: His upcoming film “Rashmi Rocket” draws inspiration from not one but many women athletes who are subjected to the archaic but “widespread” practice of gender testing in sports, says the director of the film Akarsh Khurana. Set in Kutch, Gujarat, “Rashmi Rocket” stars Taapsee Pannu in the title role of a gifted athlete who faces discrimination for not being conventionally “feminine”. Khurana, known for “Karwaan” and “Mismatched”, has directed the movie which is based on an original story by south filmmaker Nanda Periyasamy. “It is not based on the life of one person. It is inspired by the struggles of various female athletes, Indian and international. The interesting thing is that where they have a situation like a gender testing and things like that, our awareness is only restricted to a couple of high-profile cases that may have come in the news. “But what’s most interesting is that Nanda, who is from Tamil Nadu, (shared) there are so many cases in villages and other states that we aren’t even aware of. All of this often goes on under the radar but this is a widespread practice,” the director told PTI in a Zoom interview. “Besides the fact that some people in real life have undergone this practice, this is a completely fictionalised version of events. It”s a completely different story… The circumstances of the gender test, and events after the test are completely created and it is not like anyone’s life,” he added. When he boarded the project, the Mumbai-born director said he knew the film was exploring an issue that needed a sensitive approach. “The makers were not looking for the story to be done in a melodramatic way. It had to be done in a gentler, subtle manner. We have made an entertaining and engrossing film which will perhaps leave you to think about,” he said. The film also stars Priyanshu Painyuli, Supriya Pathak Kapur, Abhishek Banerjee, and Supriya Pilgaonkar. Khurana, who has described the movie as a blend of a courtroom drama, sports story and mature romance, said he enjoyed the process of “organically” incorporating these elements into the script. The film is written by Periyasamy, Aniruddha Guha and Kanika Dhillon. All in all, “Rashmi Rocket” is a human story, said the filmmaker. “It”s about a woman who becomes a celebrated athlete and eventually gets into a situation where she needs to go to court. All through that, there is a wonderful relationship not just with a man, but also with her mother. She has an almost enviable relationship with the man in her life, played by Priyanshu,” he added. Produced by RSVP and Mango People Media, the film is heading for a digital premiere on ZEE5 on October 15. Even as theatres in Maharashtra, a prime market for Bollywood, are set to reopen from October 22, the director said the makers have taken a “sensible decision” to release “Rashmi Rocket” on the streaming service. He believes it was in the best interest of the film as they didn’t want it to “get lost” in the release calendar loaded with big projects like “Sooryavanshi”, “Laal Singh Chadha”, “83”, “Bunty Aur Babli 2”, and “Shamshera”. “The moment the theatres opened, besides the fact we figure out the fact that what kind of protocols are being followed and how many people go back to the cinemas right away, what is also important that there was a very strong awareness of the fact that there are so many films that are complete and are waiting to come out. “Some of them are really big films. In this kind of rush when everybody is coming out with their films, you don’t want to get lost in the crowd. You don’t want to be in a position where you don’t get a good date,” Khurana said. Through the streamer, a lot more people can get access to “Rashmi Rocket” in the safety of their homes, he pointed out. “It’s an important story. The more people see it, the better it will be,” the director added. Khurana is also looking forward to the second season of his Netflix series “Mismatched”, starring Prajakta Koli and Rohit Saraf. The director said fans of the coming-of-age romantic drama will get to know the leads “a little better” as the writers had the freedom to flesh out the characters in the upcoming installment. “The writers have done a wonderful job of taking those journeys forward. We will get a little bit more into the lives of these characters and their struggles. But it still remains a college romance story. “The old characters are coming back and you will see some of them in a new light. There are some new characters that I’m really excited about who will add a lot of fun and value to the show,” he added. Netflix is yet to announce the premiere date of “Mismatched” season two. ### Response:

Expanded Media/LBI Entertainment and 101 Studios announced today that two-time Academy Award nominee Jeremy Renner will star as Pulitzer Prize winning investigative journalist David Armstrong who - through a riveting and perilous journey – uncovered the secrets of how the Sackler family and Purdue Pharma fueled a national nightmare. Over a four-year investigation, Armstrong discovered evidence that, in order to maximize their profits, members of the Sackler family knew of and supported Purdue's concealment of the strength and addiction risks of the drug OxyContin. Since the release of OxyContin, more than two hundred thousand Americans have died from prescription painkiller related overdoses. The film will be written and directed by the award-winning husband-wife filmmakers Aron Gaudet and Gita Pullapilly (Beneath The Harvest Sky, Queenpins). "David Armstrong is a Pulitzer-prize winning investigative reporter with the utmost integrity. It is an honor to team up with Jeremy and show the world the importance of watchdog journalists like David. They are truly the last check on power in any democracy," said filmmakers Aron Gaudet and Gita Pullapilly. Journalist David Armstrong says, “I am gratified that a movie audience will learn of the story behind this crisis, which has ruined so many lives. I am impressed with the vision Gita and Aron have for making this film and thrilled that an actor of Jeremy's talent and ability will be a major part of telling this story." "I can't think of anyone better than Jeremy Renner to bring David Armstrong's vital story to audiences" shares David C. Glasser, CEO of 101 Studios, "We have been lucky enough to see Jeremy's tremendous talent first-hand working together on Mayor of Kingstown. We can't wait to see him tackle this project that we know will resonate with audiences." Julie Yorn, Head of Production for Expended Media/LBI Entertainment, adds: "We are thrilled to be collaborating with such a talented team. David Armstrong's honor and conviction are a model of what we should all aspire to, and an example of the importance of speaking truth to power. Aron and Gita's remarkable vision and passion for this story has found its perfect match in Jeremy Renner. We are proud to be working in partnership with the entire team at 101 on this important story. " Jeremy Renner has established himself as one of Hollywood’s most versatile and respected actors. Most recently, Jeremy starred as the titular character in Marvel's series Hawkeye for Disney+ and is currently playing the lead in the Paramount+ drama series Mayor of Kingstown, which re-teams Renner with Wind River creator/writer/director Taylor Sheridan. ### Response:

Guwahati, June 26: The Kaziranga National Park and Tiger Reserve (KNPTR), home to more than 2,600 one-horned Indian rhinos, is faced with a major threat -- not from poachers but from several invasive plant species that are threatening to destroy the habitats of one-horned rhinos and other animals. Around 17 invasive plant species that have been found in different ranges of the national park are posing a grave threat to the habitats, including grasslands. Maharashtra Political Crisis: As Eknath Shinde Camp Bides Time in Guwahati, Shiv Sena Gears Up for Legal Battle KNPTR Director Jatindra Sarma, who discovered these invasive species growing profusely, said: "While venturing out in different areas and pockets of KNPTR falling under different ranges, I have come across certain species of plants of invasive nature, few of which are already reported (mostly annual herbs, perennial herbs), now identified to be weeds, posing grave threat to habitats of the herbivores in as much as impacting the grasslands severely with regeneration being alarming." Sarma, who is an expert on medicinal plants and mushrooms found in northeast India with more than 25 scientific papers published in national and international research journals and books to his credit, including 'Medicinal Plants and Mushrooms of India', told IANS that there are some plants having toxic impact once under water and dominating the small trees. The senior Indian Forest Service officer, who has been credited with discovery of rare and high value medicinal plants and rediscovery of plants considered to be long extinct, has come up with a comprehensive plan of action for dealing with the menace of expansion of the species as well as regeneration of the invasive species at an alarming rate. He, however, found out from his extensive field visits that some of the species he stumbled upon are not weeds but are highly economic species. In the wake of the new menace plaguing the world famous India's seventh UNESCO world heritage park, the KNPTR Director has sought the permission from the concerned authorities to go in for experimental culling, cutting, slashing, uprooting, and girdling of the invasive plant species. Sarma who took over as the Director of the national park earlier this year, has come across a poisonous plant of the Solanaceae family - Cestrum diurnum - growing luxuriantly in the chapories like Bhakte, Bamun, etc falling under the Bokakhat range headquarters. "Though it is a weed, it is of high medicinal value, being a source of Vitamin D-3, being smuggled out by unscrupulous traders from elsewhere of eastern Assam. I have already taken up the matter with a Delhi-based manufacturing company for commercial cultivation of the species through the Eco-Development Committees (EDCs). Once we finalise the modalities with the company which requires 10 tonnes of dry leaves per month, this particular weed could be turned into potential crop for the people living in the vicinity of the park to uplift their livelihood. "I have asked the company to furnish the rates for the raw material since the plant is not abundantly available nor cultivated obviously because of its toxicity, not even browsed by herbivores, cattle, etc and also the protocol, if any, for sustainable harvesting involving the marginal farmers, EDCs, etc." Looking into the burning issues at hand, Sarma said: "The KNPTR, the Wildlife Institute of India and the leading NGOs working for the park can collaborate for vibrant research to the burning issues at hand through a pilot project with focus on weeding out the invasive species which are seriously affecting the flora and fauna of the park. This will also help in better understanding and improved habitat management of KNPTR." Sarma has also taken up the matter with the higher-ups for developing and maintaining a nursery for indigenous grasses, fodder species of different species of grasses for all the herbivores inhabiting the KNPTR. In view of the critical nature of grasslands that are shrinking everywhere due to various factors coupled with the climate change happening fast, Sarma emphasised on the need for conservation and propagation of the members of the Poaceae family in a very holistic manner. "Not many of us accord much importance to the members of the Poaceae family and not much of scientific papers are available wherein we need to stress upon its need for conservation and propagation in a holistic manner," Sarma added. ### Response:

London, Jul 7 (PTI) Embattled British Prime Minister Boris Johnson on Thursday finally agreed to step down as the Conservative Party leader, ending an unprecedented political crisis and triggering an election for a Tory leader who will go on to become the new premier. Johnson, 58, will remain in charge at 10 Downing Street until the process of electing a new leader is completed by the time of the Conservative Party conference, scheduled for October. He is expected to formally announce his resignation and address the nation later on Thursday. “The Prime Minister will make a statement to the country today,” a Downing Street spokesperson said. The move came after days of high drama and a steady stream of resignations from his Cabinet since Tuesday and just minutes after his newly appointed Chancellor to replace former Chancellor Rishi Sunak wrote a public letter calling for him to "go now". Nadhim Zahawi, the Iraqi-origin minister seen as a frontrunner to replace Johnson in 10 Downing Street, wrote a damning letter that openly questioned his boss' authority and demanded his exit. While not officially resigning from his new Cabinet post, the 55-year-old minister said the time was up for Johnson. “Prime minister, you know in your heart what the right thing to do is, and go now,” he signs off. His demand followed over 50 resignations since Johnson's apology on Tuesday, after days of changing messages from Downing Street over the hiring and handling of the now-suspended Chris Pincher, who quit as Deputy Chief Whip in charge of Tory party discipline last week after admitting drunken misconduct. It comes in the wake of the partygate scandal of COVID law-breaking parties in Downing Street, which had resulted in a no-confidence vote last month which Johnson just about survived. Johnson’s resignation will now trigger a fierce leadership battle within the Conservative Party. The 1922 Committee is responsible for setting the timetable for a Tory leadership contest. To take part in the race, a Tory MP has to be nominated by eight colleagues. If more than two MPs put themselves forward and secure enough nominations to run for leader, a series of secret ballots are held to whittle them down. UK Attorney General Suella Braverman, who chose not to resign from Cabinet saying her legal role made it incumbent upon her to carry on, had withdrawn her support from Johnson and threw her hat in the ring to take over as the next Conservative Party leader and future Prime Minister. "It pains me to say it, I have been an admirer and long-standing supporter of the Prime Minister but the facts are undeniable that he can't command the confidence of a sufficient number of people to serve in his government," the Goan-origin minister told the BBC. The pro-Brexiteer, who described herself as a "steadfast" supporter of Johnson so far, said she was keen to step in to be able to fix the remaining issues with the Brexit deal and get things done. "The writing's on the wall, I can't fight that any more. I have run the Attorney General's office. I am putting myself forward because I believe that the 2019 manifesto is fit for purpose, presents a bold and inspiring vision for our country and I want to deliver on the promises contained in that manifesto. I want to embed the opportunities of Brexit and tidy up the outstanding issues. and cut taxes," she said. Braverman, 42, is so far the only Tory MP to formally declare her leadership bid. Others expected to join the race include Zahawi and Foreign Secretary Liz Truss, with Sunak and former Health Secretary Sajid Javid among some of the others seen as likely contenders. Indian-origin Home Secretary Priti Patel is also among the names touted along with UK Defence Secretary Ben Wallace. Among the more junior members, Tory MPs Penny Mordaunt, Tom Tugendhat and former Foreign Secretary Jeremy Hunt are the names doing the rounds.

New Delhi: In a setback to former Punjab Congress chief Navjot Singh Sidhu, the Supreme Court on Thursday sentenced him to one-year in jail in a 1988 road rage case. A bench headed by Justice A.M. Khanwilkar allowed the review petition by the family of victim Gurnam Singh against the top court's 2018 verdict, which let off Sidhu with a mere Rs 1,000 fine. The top court enhanced the sentence to Sidhu to one year. The top court said, "We have allowed a review application on the issue of sentence.we impose a sentence of imprisonment of one year to be undergone by the respondent." The order in the matter will be uploaded later in the day. On March 25, the Supreme Court reserved the verdict on a review petition seeking a direction to enhance the sentence awarded to Sidhu in the 1988 road rage case. Senior advocate A.M. Singhvi, representing Sidhu, submitted before a bench headed by Justice A.M. Khanwilkar that sentence was a discretion of court and no interference could be done except in cases of death penalty, given in rarest of the rare and in the present case, and added there was no need to have a relook at the 2018 judgment. "Appeal on adequacy of sentence should not be entertained. The state is not in appeal against the sentence and the victim cannot challenge the adequacy," submitted Singhvi. He further added that there has been no allegation of lack of cooperation on the part of his client. The bench, also comprising Justice Sanjay Kishan Kaul, noted that the issue before it was only whether despite the court having issued limited notice on (point of) sentence the provision under which sentence has been imposed needs to be looked at. The bench reserved the judgment after hearing detailed arguments in the matter. The plea was filed by the kin of the deceased, Gurnam Singh seeking a relook on the 2018 judgment. Senior advocate Sidharth Luthra, representing the victim's family, submitted that the death due to cardiac arrest is not correct, and a blow was delivered on the victim. Singhvi vehemently argued that it was extremely doubtful that an injury, caused by a fist blow, could have led to the death. Luthra argued that the 2018 judgment failed to consider the previous decision in the case of Richhpal Singh Meena vs Ghasi (2014). He added that, in this case, the top court was of the view that when there is death of a human being, it may either be culpable homicide (amounting or not amounting to murder) or not culpable homicide. ### Response:

You're reading Entrepreneur United States, an international franchise of Entrepreneur Media. This story originally appeared on Zacks Altisource Portfolio Solutions (ASPS) shares soared 18.3% in the last trading session to close at $11.75. The move was backed by solid volume with far more shares changing hands than in a normal session. This compares to the stock's 12.4% loss over the past four weeks. - Zacks The increased investor optimism can be attributed to news of the sale of Altisource Portfolio's majority-owned subsidiary - Pointillist, Inc. - which is expected to close before 2021 end. Altisource Portfolio owns around 69% of the equity stake in Pointillist and estimates receiving $100 million in cash at the sale closing and an additional $3.7 million in cash after a year of closing, assuming no indemnification claims. The company expects to recognize a gain of $107 million from the sale. Efforts to monetizing attractive assets and strengthen the balance sheet by adding $100 million have likely sparked investor interest in the stock. This real estate services firm is expected to post quarterly loss of $0.46 per share in its upcoming report, which represents a year-over-year change of -91.7%. Revenues are expected to be $50.13 million, down 41.3% from the year-ago quarter. Earnings and revenue growth expectations certainly give a good sense of the potential strength in a stock, but empirical research shows that trends in earnings estimate revisions are strongly correlated with near-term stock price movements. For Altisource Portfolio, the consensus EPS estimate for the quarter has remained unchanged over the last 30 days. And a stock's price usually doesn't keep moving higher in the absence of any trend in earnings estimate revisions. So, make sure to keep an eye on ASPS going forward to see if this recent jump can turn into more strength down the road. The stock currently carries a Zacks Rank 3 (Hold).

Udhagamandalam: As technology progresses, it becomes the responsibility of the next generation to ensure that the development that India has achieved till now is not only sustained but taken to newer heights, said Vice President M Venkaiah Naidu on Wednesday.Addressing students of the Lawrence School in nearby Lovedale, Naidu said the youth of a nation can bring about a change in its fortunes.

Building on that robust foundation, you (young children) have to take your school and along with that, the society on the whole to a new zenith of progress and development," Naidu said.The students must translate all that they have learnt in the hallowed portals of this historic institution into action by doing all that they can do for the assistance and development of the less fortunate in society, the Vice President said. Naidu appreciated the students for helping flood-affected villages of Wayanad in neighbouring Kerala by helping the people there to reconstruct their houses as well as rebuild a school, and urged the youngsters to continue with their noble work."If you (students) never give in to all the points that I have mentioned, you will not only become a fine human being, you will also become a true leader, a true son, a true daughter of India and take our beloved motherland to the pinnacle of progress and perfection," the Vice President further said.Tamil Nadu Forest Minister K Ramachandran and Nilgiris District Collector S P Amrit were present at the function.Read all the Latest News, Trending News, Cricket News, Bollywood News, India News and Entertainment News here.

After a long spell of bickering in Punjab Congress, the party high-command on Saturday asked Chief Minister Captain Amarinder Singh to resign from his post. This comes after Navjot Singh Sidhu, Amarinder's bete noire, was appointed state Congress unit chief. While the ball is in the court of party president Sonia Gandhi and high-command to pick Amarinder Singh's successor, former leader Congress in Lok Sabha and Singh's close aide Ravneet Singh Bittu's is doing the rounds for becoming the next Punjab chief minister.Bittu had recently met Amarinder Singh "to discuss the ongoing as well as upcoming development agendas and issues of Punjab". Earlier in August, Bittu had questioned the sudden discontentment that arose after several Congress MLAs sided with Navjot Singh Sidhu's criticism of Amarinder Singh. Bittu had told reporters: " It is very shocking that with just a few months to go for elections, such senior ministers and leaders are indulging in actions which are going to cause irreparable damage to the party.""If these leaders were having so many problems with Amarinder Singh being the CM or he was not the right CM, then why for four and half years have these people remained as cabinet ministers and on other plum posts," he added.Standing Amarinder Singh's ground, Bittu had recommended the ministers disappointed with the former's leadership to resign their posts "in the spirit of sacrifice".Bittu had won the 2009 Lok Sabha elections from Anandpur Sahib and fought to win the Ludhiana seat twice -- in 2014 and again in 2019 -- General elections. He is the grandson of former Punjab Chief Minister Beant Singh who was assassinated in 1995. ### Response:

Domestic auto major Tata Motors is in preliminary talks to buy Ford's plants in Tamil Nadu and Gujarat. Last month, the American car giant had announced that it would stop manufacturing cars in India and also shut down both its production plants in the country. For information on the status of the Tata Motors-Ford deal, let us tell you that if Tata Motors buys their plants after successful negotiations with Ford, then this will be Tata's second asset purchase from the American automaker. Earlier in March 2008, the Tata group bought Jaguar Land Rover from Ford for $2.3 billion. Several media reports have mentioned that the Tamil Nadu government is in discussions with the Tata group on a possible acquisition of Ford India units in Chennai's Maraimalai Nagar. Also, Tata Sons Chairman N Chandrasekaran held talks with Tamil Nadu Chief Minister MK Stalin and State Industries Minister Thangam Thennarasu on Wednesday. Though the details of the high-level talks were not disclosed, this is the second time in two weeks that Tata Group officials are meeting the CM. Earlier on September 27, Girish Wagh, executive director of Tata Motors, met Stalin. At present, Tata Motors, India's largest automaker, does not have any production plant in Tamil Nadu. However, it has a production plant in Gujarat, which is very close to Ford's production plant. More importantly, the state of Tamil Nadu wants to find a new owner for Ford's units so that it can save jobs, and small and medium enterprises (SMEs) don't have to be impacted by Ford's decision to shut down manufacturing plants. . American auto major Ford decided to leave India after suffering a massive $2 billion loss over the past 10 years. Discussions are on and Tata Motors may decide not to seal the deal. A Tata Motors spokesperson said Chandrasekaran had a "courtesy meeting" with the chief minister, but declined to divulge further details. "We are exploring possible options for our manufacturing facilities," the publication quoted an unnamed Ford India spokesperson as saying. Siddharth Khemka, head (research) at Motilal Oswal Financial Services, told the daily that the transaction makes sense for Tata Motors as it would be a distress sale with few gains expected from the state government. ### Response:

Although the league stage of the tournament is almost done, the last four teams who will play knockout games are yet to be decided. Seven teams are still fighting from the three left spots. Sunrisers Hyderabad (SRH) have also kept themselves alive in the race with a win over five-time champions Mumbai Indians (MI). The 2016-champions defeated Mumbai by 3 runs to keep their hopes alive. But it was not an easy game for the Orange Army. They came into this game with five consecutive losses in their bag. Hyderabad started well with the bat as they posted 193/6 in their 20 overs. But Mumbai batters also came prepared for the assault they launched on the SRH bowlers. First, it was Rohit Sharma and Ishan Kishan and then it was Tim David. The Australian aggregated 26 runs in T Natarajan's over to keep MI in the hunt. However, he lost his wicket in the same over, giving SRH an advantage. Meanwhile, SRH bowlers also did a terrific job of not letting this game slip from their grasp. Umran Malik with his three wickets set the tone and then Bhuvneshwar Kumar and Fazalhaq Farooqi sealed it off for SRH. As this game swung like a pendulum, Twitter users shared their emotions.

Quilts keep one warm, protected and comfortable. That idea drove Taruna Sethi, an entrepreneur producing quilts to want to make and 'gift' 1,000 quilts to frontline workers as a token of gratitude and in the process employing migrant workers, including those who lost their jobs amid the pandemic. Through India's Karuna Quilt Movement, which was launched in August 2020, Taruna and her team comprising 22 artisans are 'committed' to achieving their dream, on August 15, 2021. 'Giving shape to a quilt is so appropriate to the sentiment of gratitude - karuna or compassion. We need to count our blessings and acknowledge these frontline workers. When things go wrong, there is no choice for the people in the professions of medicine, armed forces, police, municipality, etc. but to come in the forefront and do everything possible to keep us safe and healthy, often at the cost of their own health and lives,' the 55-year-old told indianexpress.com , adding that 'there could not be a better date than Independence Day' for realising their dream. Taruna, who moved from the US to Mumbai in 2015, set up an enterprise named Simply Beautiful Always in 2016, focusing on intricate patchwork quilting. What began as an exercise where she taught her domestic help the art of quilting, later transformed to becoming the first step for a 'social movement'. 'The idea is to generate a sustainable income for them and so we are training them in making these intricate patch works designs and not just a simple razai,' she explained. Taruna and her team design the layouts and finish the patch work quilts. 'We are virtually training several NGOs and running a pilot test in a village in Bihar to make the quilt tops. Additionally, we are also partnering with a few textile and garment manufacturers who are contributing their surplus/scraps cotton fabrics which are getting upcycled to be made into quilts by the ones who need to be sustainably employed,' said the self-employed business woman, who majorly funds the project along with contributions from people on http://www.indiaskarunaquilt.com Not just that, people can also make contributions towards the movement in the form of fabrics or finished quilts. As per Taruna, one or several 12.5 inches x 12.5 inches squares that make a quilt can be designed and contributed by people. 'You can also make the squares yourself and send it to us and we will assemble them into finished quilts. It is completely up to your creative imagination right from sewing, patch work, paint, embroidery, knitting and crochet,' she said. On the significance of the movement, she said how 'no job is small'. 'In these challenging times, the ones who could pivot and adapt to new jobs have succeeded beautifully. It is important that we constantly keep learning and improvising with the changing times and always remain independent. We are capable of just about anything as long as we have the right attitude and an open mind,' said Taruna.

Tehran | The head of Iran's civilian nuclear programme says Tehran will allow UN inspectors to install new memory cards into surveillance cameras at its sensitive atomic sites and to continue filming there. Mohammad Eslami made the comment Sunday after a meeting he held with the director-general of the International Atomic Energy Agency, Rafael Grossi, in Tehran. Since late February, Iran has restricted IAEA inspectors from accessing the surveillance footage as Tehran's nuclear deal with world powers has collapsed. The announcement could buy time for Iran ahead of an IAEA board meeting this week in which Western powers had been arguing for Tehran to be censured over its lack of cooperation with international inspectors. The IAEA told member states in its confidential quarterly report last week that its verification and monitoring activities have been “seriously undermined” since February by Iran's refusal to let inspectors access their monitoring equipment. ### Response:

Punjab Chief Minister Captain Amarinder Singh on Monday slammed his Haryana counterpart Manohar Lal Khattar for defending the assault on protesting farmers and blaming the state for the farm agitation. Reacting to Khattar and his deputy Dushant Chautala's allegations that Punjab is behind the farmers' agitation, Amarinder reminded them that the farmers, who were demonstrating against the BJP meeting in Karnal on Saturday, were from Haryana. The police had lathi-charged the protesting farmers in Karnal, drawing criticism from several quarters. 'Repeal the farm laws instead of blaming Punjab for the mess your party has put the farming sector in,' said Captain Amarinder. The Punjab CM also recalled that the farmers had held protests across the state Punjab for two months before shifting to the Delhi borders, but no incidents of violence were reported at the time. 'Even recently, when sugarcane farmers staged protests, we negotiated with them and resolved the issue instead of using brute force to try and subjugate them,' he added. On Khattar's remark that farmer leaders are sending Amarinder ladoos after the resolution of the sugarcane farmers' protest, the Punjab CM said, 'You repeal the farm laws and not just the farmers, but even I will share ladoos with you.' Amarinder further reiterated support to the protesting farmers and said they were providing compensation and jobs to the families of those who have died at the Delhi borders. 'A government or a political party which allows such tragic and totally avoidable loss of lives to continue under its watch cannot survive,' he added. ### Response:

Finding a budget-friendly, reliable work laptop that's also packed with some good features for day-to-day usage can be quite difficult even with all the options that are out there. On top of that if you are also looking for a notebook with some gaming chops then your options are fairly limited. But there are some exceptions and the Acer Aspire 7 gaming laptop is one of them. This laptop costs less than Rs 60,00 but it's powered by AMD's Ryzen 5000-series chip, has an Nvidia GTX 1650 GPU, and plenty of storage. I have been using this laptop as my daily driver for a few weeks now and it has turned out to be a sweet surprise with the kind of value it offers in this price range. This detailed review of the Acer Aspire 7 gaming laptop should help you get a better understanding of the laptop and will hopefully help you make an informed purchase decision. Let's dive in. Acer Aspire 7 Gaming Laptop: Specifications Processor: AMD Ryzen 5 5500U (2.1 GHz base clock, up to 4.0 GHz max boost clock, 8 MB L3 cache, 6 cores) Graphics: Nvidia GeForce GTX 1650 RAM: 8 GB DDR4-3200 Storage: 512 GB PCIe NVMe SSD Display: 15.6" FHD IPS anti-glare panel. Acer Aspire 7 Gaming Laptop: Performance The Acer Aspire 7 gaming laptop has a pretty good set of specifications on paper. The Ryzen 5 5500U, though not based on the newer Zen 3 architecture, brings some noticeable performance improvements over the older Ryzen 5 4500U processors. The Ryzen 5 5500U inside this laptop is clocked at 2.1Ghz and has a max turbo frequency of up to 4Ghz. For starters, this chip supports hyperthreading which essentially means that more threads can run on each core to maximize performance. This helps it put out some solid performance for both benchmark programs as well as day-to-day usage. Coupled with the Nvidia GTX 1650 GPU, this laptop can actually handle gaming with pretty good numbers on the board. But before we jump into the gaming performance to see the kind of frame rates you can get, let's quickly take a look at the benchmark numbers. We ran a slew of benchmark programs on the Acer Aspire 7 gaming laptop and it managed to give us some impressive numbers across the board. With 3DMark's Time Spy test, we pushed the limits of the GTX 1650 GPU and it managed to give us a score of 3638, beating the more expensive Lenovo Legion 5i with a 10th gen Intel Core i5-10300H and the same GTX 1650. In fact, the Aspire 7 managed to beat more or less all the laptops with the GTX 1650 that we have tested so far. The Ryzen 5 5500U showed some significant performance improvement when I ran the PCMark 10's extended test. Not only was it better than the last generation counterparts, but it also left behind some Intel chips on offer in the same price segment. The Aspire 7 gaming laptop's score of 5168 was better than the Lenovo Legion 5i running on the 10th gen Intel Core i7-10750H processor that only scored 4091. I found very good results on the Cinebench R20 benchmark too. The Ryzen 5 5500U processes the Cinebench R20' multi-thread test at 3.6Ghz, leaving some headroom before its max turbo frequency. On battery power, the CPU operates at 1.8Ghz only even while handling the multi-thread test to conserve power. On Cinebench R20, the Aspire 7 gaming laptop scored 3063 points, which is higher than a lot of laptops that we have tested under Rs 1 Lakh. We found similar results with other programs and the Aspire 7 gaming laptop scored some pretty good numbers overall in our internal scoring sheet. So how well does the Acer Aspire 7 gaming laptop handles gaming? To answer this question, I ended up playing a wide variety of games on this laptop including some benchmark favorites like Doom Eternal and Grand Theft Auto 5. Here, check out the benchmark graph below to get a better understanding of how the games will run on this laptop. All the games tested for benchmarking we running at 1080p, at their High and Medium preset graphics settings. Most games, as you can see, hits the 60FPS mark even at max settings. Dropping down the settings a notch or tweaking things a little bit makes it put out better frame rates but the experience is limited due to the 60Hz refresh rate cap. The 99th percentile frame rates, in most cases, were close to the average frames, which means the performance is consistent and smooth. The Nvidia GTX 1650 was maxing out its usage. The CPU usage, however, stayed around 70% which means it had enough headroom left to be pushed further with, say, a better GPU. Acer Aspire 7 Gaming Laptop: Thermals We did most of our testing in 24-28 degrees ambient temperature, and the laptop managed to stay relatively cool throughout the process. Irrespective of the test that we were running, the laptop's temperature remained well under bearable limits. I played GTA V for about 4 hours at a stretch to see if the GPU was able to handle the load and it stayed relatively cool while performing at its max potential. I saw no signs of thermal throttling during the testing, which is always a good sign in gaming laptops that don't have a huge chassis with sophisticated cooling solutions. Both CPU and GPU were performing optimally and managed to stay under 70-degrees throughout the test. The keyboard deck did start to feel a little warm to touch but it wasn't uncomfortable to use at any given point. The fans also kick in as soon as you start running a resource-intensive task like a game, and this can be controlled via the AMD Radeon software. The large perforations on the bottom lid allowed the fans to suck in as much fresh air as possible whereas the hot air was blowing out of the vents at the back of the laptop as well as on the side. The hot air coming out of the right side of the laptop was causing a bit of an issue for me while using a gaming mouse but I don't see it as a major issue that's limited to just this laptop. Lastly, I also tested the 512GB PCIe NVMe SSD using the CrystalDiskMark program. I was able to record 3574MB/s and 2734MB/s sequential read-write speeds. It's on par with most other gaming laptops that cost under Rs 1 lakh. Moving huge chunks of files from an external SSD to Aspire 7's internal drive was also pretty consistent. This means the laptop should theoretically be able to boot both the OS as well as the games faster without any downtime. This will also prove useful to creative professionals trying to move files back and forth between drives and programs. The Acer Aspire 7 gaming laptop can also be used for creative workloads like photo and video editing. I already tested the laptop for both photo and video editing using Adobe Lightroom and Davinci Resolve software, and the laptop managed to keep up with the loads. You might have to put up with longer render times in both cases but it's very much doable. I will be posting a separate story detailing the laptop's performance for creative workloads soon, so stay tuned for that if you are interested. But long story short, the laptop can definitely handle those workloads with some compromises. Acer Aspire 7 Gaming Laptop: Display The Acer Aspire 7 gaming laptop sports a 15.6-inch display that has a native resolution of 1920x1080 pixels. It's got a matte finish that keeps hash reflections at bay and makes it easier on the eyes. It provides a decent contrast ratio of 1361:1 and has a peak brightness of 268.3 cd/m². The brightness of the display, as you can see is a little on the lower side. Anything less than 300 cd/m² is considered to be low and can cause issues with visibility outdoors, especially under direct sunlight. This is something to consider as this laptop is primarily made for indoor usage. During my testing, I recorded an Avg CCT value of 7447K, indicating that the colour temperature is on the cooler side. Acer Aspire 7 gaming laptop display tested on Calman Ultimate Another important thing to note here is that the display only supports up to 60Hz refresh rate, which is again, not very desirable on a gaming laptop. I can let it slide for this one given its price, but it may prove unsatisfactory for gamers because most titles are best played at 144Hz. And the GTX 1650 GPU in the laptop can push a lot of titles to go beyond just the 60FPS mark, so it would have made it more appealing and easy to recommend. That is, however, not even my primary concern with the display. Using the Portrait Displays C6 HDR2000 colourimeter I registered a DeltaE colour deviation of 6.21 with max DeltaE values touching as high as 20.59. So not only does the laptop misses the target of DeltaE values under 4, some colours like Blue are extremely off. Acer Aspire 7 gaming laptop display tested on Calman Ultimate The Avg DeltaE value for the Greyscale test was also very high, which means the grey levels are also not balanced. Besides the colour 'Black', pretty much all colour showed extremely high DeltaE values and they all ended up looking pale due to the high luminance values. The DeltaL value for even colours like, say, 'Pink' was pretty high with both DeltaC and DeltaH values being disturbingly low. I doubt if even a manual colour calibration will do enough to give accurate colours on this panel. It also only covered 59.4% and 39.8% of the sRGB and the DCI-P3 colour gamut. Acer Aspire 7 gaming laptop display tested on Calman Ultimate What all that means is that the display on the Acer Aspire 7 gaming laptop isn't suited for colour sensitive work. Even though the laptop's performance can drive photo and video editing software, I highly go against using this display for any kind of professional work. In fact, I recommend an external monitor even for day-to-day media consumption like watching videos, movies, and TV shows. You will enjoy much better visuals and it will be a worthy purchase on the longer run. Acer Aspire 7 Gaming Laptop: Battery Life The Acer Aspire 7 gaming laptop packs a 3-cell 48Whr in its chassis which the company claims has a maximum runtime of up to 11.5 hours. During our testing, we didn't manage to mimic similar results, but the laptop still has surprisingly good battery life. The Ryzen 5 5500U with a max TDP of 25W is also at play here and it tends to be more forgiving on the battery life thanks to its 7nm architecture. I tested the laptop's battery life using PCMark 10's battery benchmark and ended up with some promising results. In PCMark's Modern office test which simulates battery life for everyday work, the Aspire 7 managed to last for 5 hours and 9 minutes. It lasted significantly longer than both the ASUS TUF Gaming A15 that's powered by the Ryzen 7 4800H, and the HP Omen 15 2020 that's powered by the Intel Core i7-10750H. I also supplemented the PCMark test by getting some real-world usage out of the laptop. As I mentioned earlier, I used the Aspire 7 gaming as my primary notebook for a few weeks and during that period, the laptop was consistently putting up with me for over 5 hours at peak brightness. That's quite an impressive number for a gaming laptop. The ASUS TUF Gaming A15 in comparison only last for about 2 hours or so during our testing. Obviously, your mileage may vary depending on the kind of work that you will be doing on the laptop on a daily basis. With my usage, which involves researching and writing stories for the website, web browsing, listening to music over Bluetooth, watching some YouTube videos and Twitch streams, etc., I was pleasantly by not having to reach out for my charger more often. This makes me believe that this Aspire 7 gaming laptop can also be your go-to which you can rely on to last a good while when you are out for, say, a day of class. Acer Aspire 7: Keyboard, Trackpad, and I/O The Acer Aspire 7 gaming laptop is equipped with a backlit chicklet keyboard with an integrated number pad. There are no adjustable brightness levels for the backlight, so it's a simple white light that you can toggle on or off. The keys are flat and smooth and there's a good amount of space between them. The keys provide a short stroke and clear pressure point, making them very pleasing to hit. It's a very comfortable keyboard with responsive keys that have more travel than I expected. You don't get an audible click but you can feel them actuate unlike the ones with shallow or mushy keys. It's very easy to get used to and it's a great keyboard for typing. It's also perfectly serviceable for gaming if you don't plan on buying a dedicated gaming keyboard. The touchpad, too, is very simple. It's got a smooth surface which makes it easier for your fingers to glide on. It's not the largest touchpad out there but it doesn't have dedicated keys either, so you get a one-piece patch to work with. What I really like about this touchpad is that it also responds to inputs in the corners without showing any signs of flimsiness. Coming to ports, Acer has managed to give us plenty of them on this chassis. On the left side, you'll see two USB 3.0 Type-A ports, a USB Type-C port, an HDMI output, and an Ethernet jack. It's worth pointing out that the Type C port here doesn't support DisplayPort over USB-C or Power Delivery 3.0. On the right side, you get another USB Type-A port along with a combo headphone/microphone jack and a power connector. As you can see, we are looking at a decent selection of ports, but what's missing here is an SD card reader, which could have been a nice addition. Acer Aspire 7 Gaming Laptop: Design And Build Quality Despite being a gaming laptop, the Aspire 7 isn't built to look like one. If anything, I'd say it looks plain and very generic, which is something that makes it easier for it to fit in most environments without looking overly obnoxious. Acer is selling the matte black variant of the laptop here in India and it just looks clean without any RGB or flashy lighting whatsoever. The chassis is made entirely of plastic, which is unsurprising at this price point. However, it doesn't feel overly cheap. Of course, it is not as nice as a lot of other notebooks in this price range from the competitors but I wouldn't take this to be a bad thing. At 2.15Kg, it's not exactly the most lightweight machine in the world, but it's on the right side of travel-friendly and it's super portable. Overall, I would say the Acer Aspire 7 gaming laptop is an unremarkable machine when it comes to looks. It's not going to turn any heads but that doesn't necessarily make it a bad choice. The laptop is well made and it doesn't have any serious stability issues albeit the noticeable flex on the lid and the substantial dips you'll experience if you push too hard on the keyboard deck. It's got a serviceable build quality and it should be just fine as long as you don't handle it roughly. Verdict So to sum up this review, I can say that the Acer Aspire 7 gets a lot of things right. For the price of Rs 57,000, you are essentially getting a very functional laptop that's perfect for day-to-day workloads and it's got the gaming chops to handle FHD gaming. Acer could have definitely used a better display on this laptop though. It's highly uncalibrated out of the box, doesn't have enough brightness for outdoors usage, and the limited 60Hz refresh rate leaves me wanting more. But barring that, I don't have much to complain about. Yes, it's not an ultraslim laptop and it doesn't have eye-catching looks, but it certainly makes up for that with its performance and value. ### Response:

For Hiralal Bhanarkar, 42, and his wife Hirkanya, 39 — both landless labourers from Uchgaon village in Sakoli tahsil of Bhandaran district — the fire incident at Bhandara District Hospital on Saturday not only snuffed the life out of their first live baby, born after four stillbirths, but also put an end to their quest to become parents. 'After our marriage in 2006, my wife conceived for the first time after three years, but she had a premature delivery after six months with the baby, a girl, arriving dead. Two years later, a premature boy was born dead after six months of pregnancy. In 2014, another baby, a girl again, also arrived dead after seven months of pregnancy. And yet another girl child was born dead two years later, after full nine months of pregnancy,' said Hiralal. The couple then approached a private doctor at Lakhni, a tahsil town in the district, who started treating Hirkanya to ensure a safe delivery. But this time too, a baby girl was born prematurely after seven months. Underweight at just one kg, she was rushed to the Bhandara District Hospital and admitted to the sick neo-natal care unit (SNCU) the same day, on January 6. The Bhanarkars' dreams of parenthood, however, came to a tragic end on January 9. A fire at the hospital claimed the lives of 10 newborns, including their daughter, in the SNCU. 'You won't be able to imagine how it feels. Our world has come crashing down. Despite living a hand-to-mouth existence, I worked day and night to collect money required for my wife's treatment… and spent about Rs 30,000. All that is now in vain,' Hiralal said. Hirkanya has been admitted at the primary health centre in Ekodi for treatment of trauma. The Maharashtra government has given the couple a cheque for Rs 5 lakh as compensation for the tragedy. But the Bhanarkars have decided not to try for a child again. 'The doctor said my wife will face a risk to her life if we try for a child again. So, we have decided not to pursue it further,' said Hiralal. ### Response:

Five Indian players and the head coaches of both the men's and women's teams in Tokyo claimed the top honours across different categories after fetching the maximum votes. The men's hockey team had won a bronze, it's first in 41 years, in the Tokyo Olympics, while the women's side had finished an unprecedented fourth in the showpiece. Harmanpreet Singh won the men's 'Player of the Year' award and Gurjit Kaur was recognised as the best player in the women's section. Veteran P R Sreejesh and Savita Punia won the best goalkeeper awards in the men's and women's section, while young striker Sharmila Devi (women) and Vivek Sagar Prasad (men) were adjudged best rising stars. The drag-click duo of Harmanpreet and Gurjit were the top-scorers in their respective team's stellar run at the Games. Men's team coach Graham Reid and women's coach Sjoerd Marijne were also voted the best. While Reid is still with the team, Marijne's tenure ended after the Tokyo Games. Hockey Belgium reacted sharply to the announcement of the winners and questioned the process as none of their Tokyo Games champions managed to win an award. Votes from National Associations -- represented by their respective national captains and coaches -- accounted for 50 per cent of the overall result, while fans and players (25 per cent), as well as media (25 per cent), made the other half of the votes. It is to be noted that only 19 associations from the 42-strong European bloc cast their votes, compared to 29 out of 33 in Asia.The sentiment was shared by the team's official handle as well."We fully agree! This is not normal! The credibility and image of our sport are once again facing hard times. It's a pity (sic) @FIH," stated the Red Lions.In all, 79 National Associations voted, the others being Africa (11 out of 25 Member Associations), Oceania (3 out of 8), and Pan America (17 out of 30)."And with a record number of almost 300,000 fans casting their votes, fan participation in the FIH Hockey Stars Awards has been exceptional," the FIH said. Following Belgium's objection, FIH issued a statement to clarify its stand and promised a review if necessary. "As one can see, all winning athletes have topped the standings in each of the three voting groups...As always FIH will conduct a review of the FIH Hockey Star Awards and make adjustments wherever deemed necessary. In particular, we will focus on establishing why a number of national associations failed to vote," it said.The nominations from Belgium (men) and the Netherlands (women), who have not only crowned Olympic Champions but also won the 2020-21 FIH Hockey Pro League, finished behind the Indians once the votes were counted.Belgium duo of Alexander Hendrickx and Arthur van Doren was voted second and third best players respectively among men, with Vincent Vanasch (Belgium) named second-best goalkeeper and Shane McLeod of New Zealand second-best coach.Among women, Eva de Goede and Frederique Matla of the Netherlands clinched the respective second and third places in the Player of the Year awards while Alyson Annan of Australia finished second for the FIH Coach of the Year Award. Great Britain goalkeeper Maddie Hinch, rising star Fiona Crackles and coach Mark Hager of Australia all were third in their respective categories. With the FIH Hockey Stars Awards skipped in 2020 due to the impact of the COVID-19 global health pandemic on the international calendar, this year's awards covered the period from January 2020 through to the conclusion of the Olympic Games Tokyo 2020, the FIH said. "The voting process started on 23 August and concluded on 15 September 2021. Votes from National Associations - represented by their respective national captains and coaches - counted for 50 per cent of the overall result, while fans and players (25 per cent), as well as media (25 per cent), made the other half of the votes," it added.Hockey India President Gyanendro Ningombam congratulated the winners. "This is a great moment for Indian hockey as all our Indian nominees for the FIH Stars Awards have been announced winners. "After the historic performances in Tokyo by both Indian Men and Women's Hockey teams, the support from Indian fans from across the globe has been overwhelming," he said. ### Response:

HYDERABAD: An emergency meeting convened by Chief Minister K. Chandrashekar Rao at his farmhouse in Erravelli on the city outskirts on Saturday created a lot of buzz in political, bureaucratic and media circles. It was for the first time that the Chief Minister had convened a meeting of this scale with ministers and officials at his farmhouse. Usually, these meetings are called at Pragathi Bhavan, the official residence-cum-camp office, at Begumpet. Besides, the meeting was called at a short notice, at 10 am for the 1 pm meeting. All ministers made it to the meeting except three — K.T. Rama Rao who left for an official trip to the US, S. Niranjan Reddy, who is in Maharashtra and Puvvada Ajay Kumar who is in Khammam. This set off speculation, sometimes wild, over what could be happening at the meeting. Some said it was for early polls, or a Cabinet reshuffle. Or even that Chandrashekar Rao may name his son K.T. Rama Rao as the Chief Minister's face for 2023. The meeting lasted for three hours from 1 pm, time enough for more speculation. Poll strategist Prashant Kishor had submitted a report to the Chief Minister stating that the performance of 40 per cent of TRS MLAs including ministers was 'unsatisfactory' and that they should be replaced. It is also rumoured that all top officials and all TRS leaders were called in because there were complaints of poor delivery of welfare schemes leading to anger among people. It all died down at about 5 pm when the Chief Minister's Office said the meeting was meant to discuss the relaunch of the paddy procurement agitation. ... ### Response:

After paying the fees through the bank, parents can repay the amount to the banks in monthly installments. “At present several finance companies give loans to people to even purchase a phone, then why should there be loan options to meet the basic need of students. This is how we started this startup. At present, our company is typing with top finance companies and offering the facility for students and parents to pay their child fees in easy installments, " said Bharat S Krishnan. Three years ago, the company started with an investment of Rs 1 crore. The founders of the company claim that the app is getting a good response from both educational institutions and parents.

Colombo [Sri Lanka], May 12 (ANI): Ranil Wickremesinghe, the leader of the United National Party (UNP) of Sri Lanka, took over as the country's Prime Minister for a record sixth term on Thursday to restore stability in the island nation in the midst of a political impasse and unprecedented economic crisis.The oath-taking ceremony takes place even as the leader of the Opposition and Samagi Jana Balawegaya (SJB) head Sajith Premadasa said that his party will "devise a strategy" if UNP leader Ranil Wickramasinghe is made the prime minister of the country.The tables have seemed to turn in Sri Lankan politics, as just 4 years ago in 2018, Wickremesinghe's fifth term in power was abruptly brought to an end when Sajith Premadasa, then supported by Ranil Wickremesinghe was defeated by Gotabaya Rajapaksa by more than 13 lakh votes in a presidential election.Although having taken the role of the head of the government on five previous occasions, Wickremesinghe, born in an affluent and well-connected family in 1949, has never completed his term in any of his previous stints.Wickremesinghe was first elected to the Sri Lankan parliament in 1977 at the age of 28 years winning the Kelaniya-Biyagama electorate, his party United National Party's (UNP) website said.The following year in September 1978, he was elevated to Cabinet rank by President Jayawardene, as Sri Lanka's first Minister of Youth Affairs and Employment. He was the youngest Cabinet Member in Sri Lanka at the time. While holding this portfolio, he was additionally appointed Minister of Education in February 1980, the website further said.Having had an early start in politics, Wickremesinghe also had a young start at what would eventually become a number of small stints as the Prime Minister of his country.In May 1993, Ranil Wickremesinghe became the Prime Minister of Sri Lanka for the first time at a relatively young age of 44.However, over the course of the next 30 years, the University of Colombo Law graduate was never able to hold on to power for the entirety of his term.Wickremesinghe's sixth stint in power is unlikely to be a smooth sail either, as he takes over the country, amid large scale violent anti-government protests, a devastated economy as well as a severely fragmented politics.Sri Lanka is facing its worst economic crisis since independence with food and fuel shortages, soaring prices and power cuts affecting a large number of the citizens.At the same time, the country continues to negotiate with the International Monetary Fund (IMF) to bail out its struggling economy.It is to be seen, how Wickremesinghe assuages the anti-government protestors in the near term, with President Gotabaya Rajapaksa, the central figure whose ouster is being sought by the protestors, still in place.
