Ravichandran Ashwin is one of the smartest cricketers in the world. The all-rounder who currently plies his trade for Rajasthan Royals (RR) in the Indian Premier League (IPL), came out to bat at number 3 against Delhi Capitals, much to the surprise of fans. However, even though Ashwin, who plays as an all-rounder has come out to bat at number 3 on some previous occasions as well, it was his low batting stance on Wednesday, which also seemed to have gotten the netizens talking. The veteran was facing Kuldeep Yadav, in the 12th over of Rajasthan Royals' inning and much to the disbelief of cricket fans, Ashwin took a very low stance while batting, almost sitting down on the pitch.

While it may be unorthodox batting from Ashwin, he did seem to have gotten the better of DC's bowlers, as he notched a half-century as well, and with it, he now has a fifty across all-formats. Watch Ravichandran Ashwin's low batting stance as he nearly sits on the pitch: Talking about the match, Delhi Capitals won the contest by 8 wickets thanks to a stunning match-winning 143-run stand between David Warner and Mitchell Marsh.

As part of efforts to preserve and promote India's rich cultural legacy, Vice President M. Venkaiah Naidu urged parents and schools to encourage children to learn any art form that they choose. He further emphasised the need to return to roots while he called for a cultural revival in Indian society. The vice president's remarks came as he presented honours to various artists for their contribution to the field of performing arts and fine arts during the distribution of Lalit Kala Akademi Fellowships and Akademi Awards for 2018. DISAPPEARING INDIAN ART FORMS The vice president went on to say India's rich traditional folk art forms, such as puppetry, are dying because of the craze for western culture. The vice president further noted that exposing children to art and creativity at a young age will help them lead a more meaningful life and called on educational institutions to treat art subjects with equal importance in their curriculum. UNSUNG HEROES OF INDIA Vice President Venkaiah Naidu, speaking about the 'Azadi Ka Amrut Mahotsav' celebrations, stated that many unsung heroes sacrificed for our independence, but their tales are mainly unknown to the general public since they were not given due emphasis in our history books. He then urged for rectifying these inaccuracies and highlighted the efforts of these lesser-known heroes to the independence movement. ROLE OF VISUAL AND PERFORMING ARTS DURING INDEPENDENCE MOVEMENT Recalling the role played by visual and performing arts in stirring patriotic feelings in the independence movement, Vice President Venkaiah Naidu went on to state that art was utilised as a 'powerful political weapon' to narrate stories of British oppression. He further emphasised, "The contribution of our freedom fighters through powerful artistic expression is integral to our freedom struggle and must not be forgotten."

I invite trade unions, professionals, doctors, engineers, clerks, and government workers to take to the streets," Khan said in a message posted on his social media accounts. Imran Khan said that he will address the protesters at 10pm and said people who blamed his party for economic incompetence are have now been proved inefficient. "We had kept diesel prices lower deliberately in our tenure and were being sold at Rs145 per liter. We were also asked by the International Monetary Fund (IMF) to end subsidies, but we provided relief to the people from rising inflation," Khan said. He said that fuel prices increased by Rs 85 in the last two months. However, according to news reports and the IMF, it was Imran Khan's economic measures that stalled the IMF bailout of $6 billion dollars as it said that fuel prices have to be raised to secure a bailout. Pakistan finance minister Miftah Ismail said that the IMF staff-level agreement could be signed within the end of June. "I hope that this budget. will be acceptable to the [IMF] as long we are resolute in making sure that we don't continue with subsidies on diesel and petrol and go ahead with positive taxation for which we have set ambitious targets in the budget," Ismail was quoted as saying in an interview with the Dawn. Ismail also said that the PTI government did not attempt to bring people under the tax net while explaining the move behind taxing shopkeepers and providing relief to the working masses and the salaried class. "We are trying to ignite the economic engine not by making the rich richer but by empowering the poor economically who consume local production," Ismail was quoted as saying by news agency the Dawn. He further added the previous policies made the rich only richer as the elite would spend primarily on imported items and often direct their investments overseas.

The sudden closure of private matriculation schools in Tamil Nadu is affecting the education of students who got admission under the RTE (Right to Education) Act. Parents urged the Tamil Nadu government to look into this issue and ensure the admission of these students to other private matriculation schools so that they can continue their education and it leads to the effective implementation of this act. This year alone four private matriculation schools, namely, Prem Matriculation School, Gurukul Nursery and Primary School, VKK Playgroup Matriculation School and Maruthu Rukmani Matriculation School in the Madurai district closed down. Due to the unannounced closure of private schools, the education status of the students who enrolled under the Right To Education (RTE) Act is getting affected. Speaking to TNIE, Aadhavan, a parent, shared that his son is studying UKG in Gurukul Nursery and Primary School, and got admission under RTE act last year. School management did not say anything regarding continuing the child's education. They simply informed him to get the TC (Transfer Certificate). "Every day I try to speak with the principal over the phone and in person, but there has been no response. I am a daily wage labourer, I haven't even studied up to Class VIII. But, I have the ambition for my son to study in a private English medium school. In order to fulfill my dream, the RTE act paved the way, now it has become a problem," he said. The parent further stated that transferring children from private school to government or government-aided school is not easy. It is not a burden for parents as they have to pay admission fees and other fees all of a sudden to shift their children to other schools. He alleged that government-aided schools across the state are collecting fees from the parents without issuing receipts, he added. Speaking to TNIE, an official from the Chief Education Office said that they can't prevent the closure of private matriculation Schools. Parents need to find another school for their children to continue their studies. Under the RTE Act, no provision is available for the students to continue in another school, he said. Platform for Common School System's (SPCSS) General Secretary PB Prince Gajendra Babu shared that the Constitution (Eighty-sixth Amendment) Act, 2002 inserted Article 21-A in the Constitution of India to provide free and compulsory education for all children in the age group of six to fourteen years as a Fundamental Right in such a manner as the State may, by law, determine. "It is the responsibility of the local authority. The local authority here is the Chief Educational Officer. If any schools close, it is the duty of the CEO to identify the next neighbourhood school and admit the children. Government should ask the CEOs to submit a report on how many schools have been closed so far in the district. Status of children who enrolled under RTE, what steps have been taken by officials working in the CEO office to continue their studies," he said. Responding to this issue, Chief Educational Officer K Karthiga replied that Gurukul school had just given their proposal to close the school. However, they will provide admissions to the students studying under RTE Act at Balamandiram Higher Secondary School (government-aided) which is run by the same management. While replying to the status of students in other three private matriculation schools, she said that she will look into this. Speaking to TNIE, Director of Matriculation Schools, A Karuppaswami, said that in view of the closure of schools, it is not possible to shift the students (who enrolled under RTE) to other private schools. But, it is mandatory to provide English medium seats in neighbourhood government or government-aided schools, he said. If any District CEOs failed to ensure it, he will look into this issue, he assured. ### Response:

Kamal Haasan's Vikram is on the threshold of earning Rs 400 crore worldwide. In its third week, the Lokesh Kanagaraj-directorial has no intention of stopping. Written and directed by Lokesh and produced by Raaj Kamal Films International, the film stars Kamal Haasan, Vijay Sethupathi and Fahadh Faasil in lead roles along with a cameo from Suriya as the character Rolex. The movie is also a hit in Telugu and Karnataka states. Vikram has already become the biggest ever earner in the history of Tamil cinema, overtaking previous blockbusters like 2.0 and Baahubali: The Conclusion. All the stakeholders have made huge gains from the film's staggering box office reception. Vikram stands at around Rs 225.03 crore in India. According to trade analyst Ramesh Bala, Vikram will soon enter Rs 400 crore club. He wrote, 'KamalHaasan's #Vikram is refusing to slow down at the box office. The film is all set to enter the Rs 400 crore club soon. #IndustryHitVikram #VikramHitlist.' Vikram has also found takers in international markets, especially in Arab countries, Malaysia, Singapore and North America. Besides playing the lead role, Kamal Haasan has bankrolled Vikram under his banner Raaj Kamal Films International. The film is a spin-off of Kamal's character from his 1986 movie Vikram. Earlier, Kamal Haasan commented on the film's success and said, 'If everyone should progress, you need a leader who doesn't have to worry about the money. When I said that 'I can earn Rs 300 crore in a snap', nobody understood it. They thought that I was beating my chest. You can see now it's coming (Vikram box office collection).

(Photo by Daniel Pockett/Getty Images) Former Australian leg-spinner Shane Warne has congratulated Team India for beating England in the fourth Test by 157 runs at the Kennington Oval in London. Back in 2018 when Virat Kohli and Co played a Test at the same venue, they lost by 118 runs despite KL Rahul and Rishabh Pant's centuries in the fourth innings. But this time, the visiting team has been able to make amends. In the recent Test, England needed under 300 runs to win in the final day's play with all their 10 wickets intact. Opening batters Haseeb Hameed and Rory Burns also stitched together a partnership of 100 runs to put the Brits on the driver's seat. However, the Indian bowlers made a stupendous comeback and picked up the 10 English wickets for a mere 110 runs. Warne, the second-highest wicket-taker in Tests after Sri Lanka's Muttiah Muralitharan, lauded India for their achievements in the past 12 months. Back in January, India had also won the Border-Gavaskar Trophy in Australia. The veteran also called India the "best Test team in the world." He took to Twitter and wrote "Congratulations. @imVkohli & the entire Indian team on another terrific win. What you guys have all achieved together over the last 12 months is absolutely magnificent! Clearly the best test team in the world & that title is thoroughly deserved too! Long live test cricket." Shane Warne's tweet Indian skipper Kohli was over the moon after his team managed to take an unassailable 2-1 lead in the five-match series. Last month, India had also won the Lord's Test by 151 runs. The 32-year-old Virat praised the team for showing a lot of character after being put under immense pressure. "Well, I think the best thing about both the games has been the character the team has showed. We are not looking to survive in this game, we are here to win. Really proud of the character the team has showed. I said at Lord’s as well, I am proud of the character shown by the team, this is amongst the top three bowling performances I have witnessed as India captain," Kohli was quoted as saying. ### Response:

By Express News Service SAMBALPUR: Eyeing the Geographical Indication (GI) tag for the famous Kuchinda red chilli, the Sambalpur administration has initiated steps to get the recognition.Kuchinda red chilli, popularly known as 'Bamra chilli', has earned a distinct identity like Guntur chilli over the years. Earlier, traders from across the country camped at Kuchinda to procure the chilli, but lack of promotion and marketing facilities forced farmers to opt out of cultivating it. In a bid to encourage farmers to continue cultivation of Bamra chilly, the district administration has started the process for getting GI tag.Agriculture officer of Kuchinda Purushottam Sahu said currently, around 10,000 to 12,000 farmers are engaged in chilli cultivation in the sub-division. It is being cultivated over 7,800 hectare in both rabi and kharif seasons here. While the green chilli is sold at Rs 3,000 per quintal, the dry red variety is priced at around Rs 15,000 per quintal. The GI tag will definitely help in sustaining farmers in chilli cultivation and help them get a better market for the produce, he added. Official sources said to fulfil the criteria for GI tag, a research is underway for verifying the history of chilli cultivation in Kuchinda. Besides, evidence collection is also underway. The administration is consulting an agency to submit the application for the coveted tag. Farmer Himansu Sekhar Mahapatra, who had grown chilli for over 22 years, said, "It was a long standing demand for many chilli growers of our village. Many farmers like me who had opted out of chilli farming due to lack of encouragement, will be happy to resume farming if we get the GI tag. The recognition will make our produce export worthy." According to researchers, chilli cultivation became popular in Kuchinda in 1901 when the area was part of Bamanda (Deogarh) kingdom. The erratic and deficit rainfall in the region led the then king of Bamanda Basudev Sudhal Dev to substitute paddy crop with chilli cultivation to tide over farm crisis. It later proved to be a long term solution. ### Response:

Charles Kindleberger, an economic historian, argued that monetary stability needed a hegemon to set the rules. His 'hegemonic stability theory' has subsequently been applied to a broader economic canvas and even beyond economics. It has been argued, for instance, that the instability of the period between the two World Wars was because Britain was in decline and an isolationist America not willing to step forward as the new global boss. Since then, Americans have told themselves and others that the rules-bound global order of the past 75 years was largely their creation. That view holds substantial truth, though it glosses over America's not infrequent deviations from agreed rules. Today the hegemon is challenged. The chaotic US withdrawal from Afghanistan fits into a pattern where it 'lost' Syria following a futile intervention in that country's civil war, Iraq, when it dismantled local power structures after ousting Saddam Hussein in 2003, Russia, when Putin took charge of a humiliated country in 2000, Iran, when the US failed to anticipate Islamist irredentism in 1979, and Vietnam in 1975 (where, too, handing over to a local army failed as strategy). Meanwhile, the Arab Spring withered. It was very different a quarter century ago. During the brief single-superpower moment that followed the collapse of the Soviet Union, articles in Foreign Affairs magazine (published by the US Council on Foreign Relations) had a triumphalist approach to the prospect of a new American imperium. Today, the change of tone in the same magazine is striking, though some writers hold out that China's strength is oversold and that the 21st century too will be an American century. But the ineptness of successive American presidents, from Bush the Younger to Joe Biden the Old, combined with the cluelessness that Americans demonstrate in foreign lands, contrasts with the Chinese leadership's seemingly singular focus on the accumulation of wealth and power. So, the old paradigm operates less than before. In many countries autocrats are usurping democracies even as nationalist policies have muted globalist voices. Chinese ascendancy has neutralised, if not yet Finlandised, the smaller Southeast Asian nations. Beijing's zone of influence has spread to Central Asia, while Russia on its part has asserted itself with the countries along its periphery, and become a factor in the eastern Mediterranean. A new globalisation is taking shape, and it's good and bad news for India 'The Thucydides Trap' If the US loses further ground to China and Russia, the prospect is of a hegemon in relative decline. Think-tankers speculate on the likelihood of what has come to be called the Thucydides Trap, namely, war when the established power (Sparta, in ancient Greece) feels threatened by a rising one (Athens). By one tally, 12 of 16 major power shifts have ended in war — including World War I, when Britain and Russia felt threatened by a rising Germany. But unlike a rising Japan, which felt bold enough to attack Russia in 1904 after diplomacy failed, Beijing could tell itself that open conflict is unnecessary when the chips are falling its way. There is after all the magnet of the Chinese market. More countries trade more with China than with the US. The leading US businesses too have recently leaned on President Biden to restart trade talks with Beijing. And at least two members of the Quad are feeling the heat of the dragon's breath: Australia economically, and India both economically and militarily. Indeed, the logic driving the Quad after years of inaction is that the US now needs its allies as much as the other way round. That tightens the Quad's partnerships. On the other hand, in the wake of the Afghan fiasco, the Taiwanese defence minister has said that his country will need to rely more on its own defences, less on the US. If more US allies think that way, American hegemony is on the line. To come back to Kindleberger, were the hegemon to lose traction during the transition phase of a power shift, how would India negotiate its way through unstable times? Are the country's economy, military and diplomacy up to the task that lies ahead? By special arrangement with Business Standard Covid, Pegasus, China, climate crisis — life on Earth is becoming an Orwellian nightmare ### Response:

Agartala, May 24 (PTI) Union Minister of State for Road Transport and Highways and Civil Aviation V K Singh called on Tripura Chief Minister Manik Saha in his office here on Tuesday and discussed enhancing connectivity with Bangladesh. Later, Saha posted in his Facebook page "The Union Minister met me on a courtesy call. We had a detailed discussion on different state specific issues and underlined the need to use new technology in highway construction and speedy completion. The post added, “We also discussed reopening of Kailashahar Airport and enhancing connectivity with Bangladesh by using Maitri Setu in South Tripura’s Sabroom subdivision”. Singh is on a three-day visit to the north eastern state and on Monday extensively toured Dhalai district to see the progress of the ongoing work on the national highway there. He also held a review meeting with MP, MLAs and high officials of the district to oversee the ongoing construction works besides roads. Tripura East MP Rebati Tripura, who attended the review meeting, told PTI that Singh asked the state to submit a proposal for converting Kamalpur-Amarpur via Gandacherra state highway to a national highway. If the proposal is approved then the number of national highways in the border state will increase to seven. During the meeting Singh also stressed on construction of proper drainage system to ensure long life of the roads as the state witnesses substantial rainfall during monsoons, Tripura said. The MP said he had raised the issue of setting up a new airport at Kailashahar in Unakoti district to which the union minister said the civil aviation ministry will look into it seriously if the state provides the required land for it. Kailashahar airport, which has been dormant for the past several years, has severe land constraint for expansion. The state government has already announced that a 500 acre plot will be given to the Centre to raise Tripura’s second airport Hiracherra tea estate at Kailasahar. The Centre is expected to invest Rs 500 crore to Rs 600 crore to construct a green field airport at Hiracherra tea estate, close to Bangladesh’s Moulvi Bazar district.

The Delhi Transport Department will soon issue QR code-based smart cards for driving licences and Registration Certificates. "The new driving licence will have an advanced microchip with features like Quick Response (QR) code and Near Field Communication (NFC).," an official of the Delhi government said. "The new RC will have the owner's name printed on the front while the microchip and the QR code would be embedded at the back of the card," he added. The cards earlier had embedded chips, but there have been issues with reading the information coded into the chip. The chip reader machine was not available in required quantity with both the Delhi Traffic Police and the Enforcement Wing of the Transport Department. Moreover, chips were designed and implemented by the states concerned, which resulted in difficulties in reading the chip and retrieving information, especially in the case of defaulters. Now with the QR-based smart card, this issue is resolved. This will enable unification in linking and validating one's information to smart cards with Sarathi and Vahan, the two web-based databases of all driving licenses and vehicle registrations. The QR is also being implemented nationwide. The QR code reader is easily procurable and will do away with the requirement of any manual intervention altogether. The new cards will also allow two specific materials for their card manufacturing - polyvinyl chloride or PVC, and polycarbonate which is slightly more expensive but more durable. (card size - 85.6mm x 54.02 mm; thickness minimum 0.7 mm) The official said an October 2018 notification of the Ministry of Road Transport and Highways (MoRTH) had made changes to the driving licence and Registration Certificate. The new smart card-based DL and RC will have chip-based/ QR code-based recognition system. At the same time, documents such as the driving licence or the registration certificate in electronic formats on DigiLockers and mParivahan were also made valid in the place of physical documents and treated at par with original documents. The QR code also has an added advantage of acting as a safety feature on the smart card. The department will be able to retain records and penalties of the DL holder up to 10 years on the VAHAN database as soon as a driver's/ owner's smart card is confiscated. The new DL will also help the government in maintaining records of differently-abled drivers, any modifications made to the vehicles, emission standards and the person's declaration to donate organs. ### Response:

Washington (US): A new study has found that your brain is tasked with hearing sound functions even when you are sound asleep. The findings of the research by scientists from UCLA and Tel Aviv University were published in the journal Nature Neuroscience. A unique study of brain activity in the cerebral cortex of epilepsy patients found there was a robust response to sound during sleep that largely mirrored the brain's response during wakefulness. However, there was one key difference from wakefulness, namely in the level of alpha-beta waves. The attenuation of these waves characterizes the awake state and indicate neural feedback from higher brain centers helping to understand sound and anticipate what may come next. This was the key factor lacking in sleep. "The neuronal orchestra is never shut from the environment when the person is deep asleep," said Dr. Itzhak Fried, a study co-author and director of UCLA's Epilepsy Surgery Program. "The neurons are like musicians playing Mozart, each one with great fidelity and volume. Only the conductor, the one who monitors performance and leads expectations, is missing. "Fried, who in previous research has extensively studied the brain's activity during wake and sleep, said the findings could help us understand to what extent information is being processed by people in unconscious states, such as comatose patients or those under anesthesia. They may also point to ways, possibly by auditory stimulation, of enhancing memory during sleep, when the brain consolidates recent information. Researchers had an unusually up-close view into the activity of single brain cells in patients with severe epilepsy through electrodes that were implanted in their brains to identify where seizures were occurring for potential curative surgery. Patients at UCLA and Tel Aviv Sourasky Medical Center who agreed to participate in the study were set up with bedside speakers that played words and music when the patients were awake and listening, as well as sound asleep. Fittingly, one of the musical choices in the study was Mozart's "Eine kleine Nachtmusik," or "A Little Night Music. "Over 7 years, the team collected data from over 700 neurons during wakefulness and different stages of sleeping, allowing them to compare neuronal activity and brain waves. Brain cells in the primary auditory cortex responded most vigorously during sleep, but there was a decline in the "top-down" neural feedback from higher brain regions that mediate attention and expectation. "That's probably why we are still not conscious, although we are still processing the sensory information from the external world. So you're not completely shut from the environment in that sense," Fried said. (ANI) ### Response:

Vice President Kamala Harris is set to travel to Southeast Asia Friday, aiming to boost U.S. engagement in the region in an effort to counter China's growing influence globally. In an early preview of the goals for her trip to Singapore and Vietnam, Harris deputy national security adviser Phil Gordon tells The Associated Press the vice president will emphasize the Biden administration's commitment to a free and open Indo-Pacific region, with a focus on reinforcing regional security in the area. In the wake of a chaotic and highly-criticized American exit from Afghanistan, national Assoiciated Press reporter Alexandra Jaffe says all eyes are on Harris for several reasons that aren't always policy-based. "She's the first person of color, the first Black woman, the first daughter of immigrants to serve in her role. And all of those things both give her a greater opportunity, but also more scrutiny and and greater criticism of what would probably otherwise be small blips for a lot of past vice presidents," Jaffe says. The full details of Harris' trip are still being worked out, but for her second foreign trip and first trip as vice president overseas, she is planning a weeklong engagement in the region - from Aug. 20 to 26 - a significantly longer trip than her two-day tour through Guatemala and Mexico in June. Then, she met with the leaders of both countries to discuss ways to address the root causes of migration to the U.S. from the region, a central focus of her portfolio as vice president. Jaffe also says Harris was criticized for members of both parties for how she handled that trip. On the left she was criticized for a she gave a speech telling migrants do not come to the U.S. Republicans on the right were disappointed she left the country without any real deliverables with respect to reducing immigration. Harris has had less public engagement in Southeast Asia, but Asia has been a central focus for the Biden administration from the beginning of Joe Biden's presidency, as he's sought to counter China's diplomatic and military incursions in the region. Relations between the U.S. and China deteriorated sharply under Biden's predecessor, Donald Trump, and the two sides remain at odds over a host of issues including technology, cybersecurity and human rights. The president has sent some of his top Cabinet officials to Asia to show support for U.S. allies in the region. Secretary of State Antony Blinken and Defense Secretary Lloyd Austin made their first overseas trip to Japan and South Korea. Austin traveled to Singapore, Vietnam and the Philippines last month where he vowed U.S. support against Beijing's intrusions in the South China Sea.

The memories of Novelty, one of Delhi's oldest cinemas that came into existence in the 1930s and where Sholay ran for a record 73 weeks, may soon fade further as the North MCD has leased out the property for 99 years. The standing committee of North MCD has given final approval to the proposal to lease out 1,157-square metre land for 99 years at Rs 34.75 crore to a private player. The building of the cinema hall, located in the Walled City area, was demolished just before the first lockdown was clamped in the country. Novelty was earlier called Elphinstone but was renamed when Jagat Narain Seth, a wealthy businessman, acquired it in the 1930-40s.Read all the latest updates on COVID-19 here. In mid-2000, when the lease expired, the civic body took over the property and had initially planned to revamp it as cinema-cum-commercial complex with the help of private players. But the project never took off. Standing committee chairman Jogi Ram Jain said the decision was taken to help the cash-strapped civic agency strengthen its financial position. The AAP however said this is yet another example of MCDs not being able to manage their resources and therefore resorting to 'selling' prime properties at throwaway prices. 'The BJP-ruled MCD sold this massive, high-profile 1,100 sqm plot in this commercial area for just Rs 34 crore, while its market value should have been between Rs 125 and Rs 150 crore,' said AAP spokesperson Saurabh Bhardwaj. He said it can't be a coincidence that the two bidders submitted bids with just a difference of Rs 1 lakh. 'The winning bid was Rs 34.75 crore and the losing bid was Rs 34.74 crore,' he said. Jain denied the allegations and said that according to the commercial rate, the cost of the land comes to about Rs 24 crore. Despite this, he said, the corporation had kept the basic price of the land at Rs 34.59 crore. He said that the process of e-tendering has been followed. 'The land has not been given on a freehold basis; the corporation has given this land on leasehold with Rs 88 lakh to be received by the corporation every year as rent,' he said. 'Only a two and a half storey building can be built on this land.' Novelty was the third cinema in the Walled City area to be razed — after Jubilee near Chandni Chowk and New Amar cinema halls. ### Response:

Mumbai, January: TV journalist Arnab Goswami, an accused in an abetment of suicide case, failedto appear before a court in Raigad district of Maharashtra on Thursday, prompting the prosecution to seek a warrant against him. Alibaug Police had arrested Goswami and two others in the case related to interior designer Anvay Naik's alleged suicide in November 2020. They were later granted bail by the Supreme Court. On Thursday, as the case came up before Alibaug sessions court, Goswami's lawyer sought exemption from appearance. The court granted exemption for the day. The other two accused -- Firoze Sheikh and Nitish Sarda -- also did not appear. Special public prosecutor Pradeep Gharat took a strong exception, saying the accused should havebeen present for the purpose of identification as this was the first hearing after the court took cognizance of the chargesheet. He also sought issuance of warrant against Goswami and the other two. While keeping Gharat's plea pending, the court noted that as restrictions on account of coronavirus are in place till January 31, no coercive action can be taken. Abetment to Suicide Case: Chargesheet Against Arnab Goswami Filed by Maharashtra Police. The court posted the matter for hearing on February 6. On that date, the accused will need to appear in person or through video conference, the prosecutor told PTI. After taking cognizance of the police's charge sheet, the court had asked all the accused to appear on January 7. The trio are facing a case under IPC sections 306 (abetment to suicide) and 109 (punishment for abetment). The charge sheet claims that Naik killed his mother, a partner in his business, and hanged himself at their Alibaug house in May 2018 as he was under stress due to non-payment of dues by the firms of the three accused. Goswami, editor-in-chief of Republic TV, alleged that the police reopened a case which had been closed in 2019 as the state government wanted to harass him.

The mobile tariff hike came as a double whammy for the common people already reeling under high inflationary pressure. Pic: iStock Over 23 lakh people under two telecom circles in West Bengal surrendered their mobile connections in the last 15 months, indicating that India's digital dream may be busting. West Bengal has two telecom circles - Kolkata Metro Telecom Circle and West Bengal Telecom circle. The latter covers Andaman and Nicobar Islands, Sikkim and West Bengal, excluding the areas covered by the Kolkata metro circle. From January 2021 to March 2022, the number of mobile subscribers under the two circles has gone down by around 23.95 lakh, according to figures available with the Telecom Regulatory Authority of India (TRAI). The mobile service providers said the reduction in numbers is more prominent in urban areas, where people generally use multiple subscriber identity module (SIM) cards. Price hike and second numbers Advertisement "One of the reasons for the drop in the number of subscribers is that many pre-paid users have surrendered their additional number after the prices of plans were hiked last year," said Kaushik Bhadra, a sales executive with Reliance Jio. Reliance Jio, Bharti Airtel and Vodafone Idea had hiked prepaid tariffs last November by 20 to 25 per cent. Prepaid constitutes almost 95 per cent of the total Indian market. Another executive with a telecom service provider said the tariff hike came as a double whammy for the common people already reeling under high inflationary pressure. The executive said the trend is by and large almost the same in all the telecom circles across the country, projecting a not very encouraging picture of India's digital dream. Fall in tele-density TRAI's annual performance indicators for 2021 released recently showed that the tele-density in India declined from 86.38 per cent at the end of December 2020 to 85.91 per cent at the end of December 2021, an annual declining rate of 0.54 per cent. The tele-density in the country has been gradually diminishing since 2018, according to the TRAI report. In 2021, the tele-density dropped to 85.91 per cent from 91.45 per cent in 2018. The fall is stiffer in urban areas, where the density declined to 137.26 per cent in 2021 from 159.98 per cent in 2018. In terms of subscriber base, the numbers dropped from 1,197.87 million in 2018 to 1,178.41 in 2021. However, the subscriber base had slightly increased in 2021 compared to 1,173.83 in 2020. "With a net decrease of 11.40 million subscribers during the quarter, the total wireless subscriber base decreased from 1,166.02 million at the end of Sep-21 to 1,154.62 million at the end of Dec-21, registering a decline rate of 0.98 per cent over the previous quarter," the TRAI report said. Kirit Somaiya's 'mafia CM' jibe at Uddhav has left Camp Shinde fuming Alarmingly, an analysis of the monthly data of the regulatory authority showed that the declining trend continues even this year. The number of telephone subscribers in India as of April this year stood at 1,167.82 million, which is 10,59 million less than what it was in December last year. The tele-density too further decreased to 84.88 per cent in April. ### Response:

The dollar index rose by 0.53% to 104.70 as the yen weakened after the Bank of Japan held firm with rock-bottom interest rates.

However, the recession fears and record inflation has capped down side in the precious metals prices.

New Delhi: The last rites of former Uttar Pradesh chief minister Kalyan Singh will be performed on Monday at Rajghat in Narora of Bulandshahr district with full state honours, according to officials in Aligarh. The mortal remains of the BJP leader, which were kept at Ahilya Bai Holkar stadium here, were taken to his native village Madholi on Monday morning, and from there they to Rajghat, they added. BJP Veteran Kalyan Singh died at the Sanjay Gandhi Post Graduate Institute of Medical Sciences (SGPGI) in Lucknow on Saturday night. He was 89. On Sunday night, Chief Minister Yogi Adityanath, while paying homage, described Singh as "a true son of Bharat Mata". Speaking to reporters in Aligarh, Adityanath said, "Today, we have brought the mortal remains of Kalyan Singh ji to Maharani Ahilyabai Holkar Stadium in his hometown Aligarh. We decided to bring the mortal remains here so that Singh ji's followers can see him for the last time. He has been associated with the people of Aligarh for years." On being asked whether Aligarh airport will be named after Kalyan Singh, Adityanath said, "We will hold a meeting with the Cabinet soon and discuss it." After the demise of Kalyan Singh, BJP leaders in Aligarh reiterated their demand to name the newly-constructed mini airport in Aligarh after Kalyan Singh. On Sunday Prime Minister Narendra Modi, Defence Minister Rajnath Singh, BJP chief JP Nadda and other leaders paid tributes to Singh in Lucknow. The former Rajasthan governor's mortal remains arrived by air ambulance at the Dhani Pur airstrip on Sunday evening and Adityanath, state BJP president Swatantra Dev Singh and Etah MP Rajveer Singh, who is son of Singh, were also present there. Singh, who also served as the Rajasthan governor, was admitted to the Intensive Care Unit of the SGPGI in a critical condition on July 4.

Singh was the Uttar Pradesh chief minister when the Babri mosque was demolished by a mob of "karsevaks" in Ayodhya on December 6, 1992. Along with BJP veterans L K Advani and M M Joshi, he was among the 32 people acquitted in the demolition case in September last year. A Lodhi leader, he was instrumental in the rise of the BJP to power in Uttar Pradesh in the 1990s.

Kochi: The Kerala High Court on Tuesday dismissed two pleas challenging Karnataka government's decision to restrict entry from here at borders of Kasaragod and Mangalore only to those having a negative RT-PCR report, saying the neighbouring state was well within its powers to issue such directions. The high court said it was an admitted fact there was no blockade of the roads from Kerala to Karnataka and the restrictions, like a negative RT-PCR certificate, were imposed within that state in view of the unprecedented surge of COVID-19 pandemic prevalent in Kerala.Read all the latest updates on COVID-19 here. "Therefore, going by the guidelines issued by the central government, it is clear that under any such circumstances, the states are given the power and responsibility to impose reasonable restrictions, so as to combat the disease. "Therefore, state of Karnataka was well within its powers to issue circulars, orders or guidelines under the provisions of the Disaster Management Act, 2005, in consonance with various guidelines issued by the central government," a bench of Chief Justice S Manikumar and Justice Shaji P Chaly said and dismissed the two PILs, one by A K M Ashraf, the IUML MLA from Manjeshwar and the other by Jayananda K R, the Secretary of Rastrakavi Manjeshwara Govinda Pai Smaraka Samithi. The bench further said that the Karnataka government has the necessary leverage to issue circulars, taking into account the situations prevailing in the neighbouring states of Kerala and Maharashtra. "Viewed from that angle, it can never be said that a part of cause of action for the writ petitions has arisen within the state of Kerala. This is more so when there is no absolute prohibition for the citizens of Kerala to travel to Karnataka by any means, but we can only view it as restrictions imposed by the state of Karnataka. "Whether the restrictions imposed within the State of Karnataka are reasonable or not, is a matter to be considered and decided by the jurisdictional High Court," the bench said in its 100-page judgement. It further said that a "wholesome appreciation of the facts and circumstances" would show that no part of the cause of action, as regards the circulars issued by Karnataka government or its officials, would arise in Kerala. "Therefore, we have no hesitation to hold that the petitioners have failed to establish territorial jurisdiction of this court in interfering with the circulars issued by the state of Karnataka dated July 31 and accordingly, we decline the reliefs sought for by the petitioners in the background of the circulars so issued. In the result, the writ petitions are dismissed for want of territorial jurisdiction," the bench said. The petitioners had contended that the travel restrictions had resulted in people from Kerala being unable to enter Karnataka for any emergent situations and therefore, it was totally illegal and violative of the fundamental rights of citizens. The blockade was also causing disruption in trade, supply of food and other essential items and interfering with the rights of the citizens to move freely throughout the territory of India, the two PILs -- one of them filed by advocate P V Anoop -- had claimed. The pleas had also claimed that people of Manjeshwar rely entirely upon the medical facilities at Dakshin Kannada district/Mangalore city and its adjacent areas, since it is the nearest medical hub available. The Karnataka government had opposed the two pleas on the ground that the entire cause of action arises within that state, and the petitioners should challenge the circulars before the High Court of Karnataka. ... ### Response:

Almost 18 months into the novel coronavirus disease (COVID-19) pandemic, the release of new case numbers is an integral part of the day for many South Africans.Read all the latest updates on COVID-19 here. Questions like "When will the third wave end?" and "Will there be a fourth wave?" abound and opinions, even among experts, are varied. The challenges in interpreting COVID-19 case and hospitalisation data are enormous. They are likely to become even more complex as SARS-CoV-2 vaccine coverage is added to the epidemiological mix. The Conversation Africa asked three experts whose job it is to keep track of it all - Michelle Groome, Harry Moultrie and Adrian Puren, all at the National Institute for Communicable Diseases (NICD) - what the data tell us. What picture are you getting from the statistics now? The NICD is a specialised division of the National Health Laboratory Service and plays a key role in communicable disease surveillance. It works with other organisations to support the national health department's management of the current pandemic. For example, the NICD provides routine reports and analyses, epidemic modelling, advisories, surveillance and research related to COVID-19. The current resurgence driven by the Delta variant finally appears to be subsiding in all nine provinces. There were differences at provincial, district and sub-district levels in the timing and scale of the previous two waves but these differences have been more pronounced in the third wave. The current resurgences in the Northern Cape and Free State started in April and subsided in June and July, before resuming in August. The patterns seen in these two provinces were likely the result of early initial resurgences driven by the Beta variant, with a later superimposed resurgence driven by the more transmissible Delta variant. In comparison, Gauteng experienced a very rapid and large resurgence in June and July. This is possibly a result of a relatively smaller and truncated second wave combined with the introduction of the Delta variant. We have also seen a shift in the age distribution of cases. Since mid-July the incidence and proportion testing positive among people under 20 years has increased relative to older age groups. During waves 1 and 2 schools were closed for extended periods, resulting in lower exposure and therefore lower immunity in younger people. The reopening of schools in late July, together with the Delta variant, has led to school outbreaks in August. Differences in immunity, vaccination coverage and timing, and behavioural responses are likely to result in variable provincial and district patterns continuing over the next few months. Thus looking only at the national epidemiological picture is becoming less useful. The "wave" terminology to describe the ongoing pandemic is also becoming less useful. How does testing affect the picture? Case ascertainment is heavily influenced by access to laboratory testing for the SARS-CoV-2 virus, individual reasons for testing (or not testing) and provincial testing strategies. Testing rates vary considerably between provinces, with Limpopo and Eastern Cape consistently on the lower side of the spectrum. Consistent reporting of antigen tests has also been problematic. PCR tests are conducted in laboratories and results are generally submitted to the health department through automated laboratory information systems. But point-of-care antigen test results have to be manually captured and submitted to the department via a web portal. The profusion of sites offering antigen tests makes it very difficult to ensure that they are all submitting results. The social unrest in KwaZulu-Natal in mid-July resulted in a substantial decline in testing volumes and thus case detection in the province. Differential testing patterns may also be responsible for the age distribution of cases. The third wave has seen an increase in the number of children of school-going age testing positive for the virus compared to previous waves. This may be driven by case detection in schools and subsequent contact tracing and increased testing of this age group. Tests are sometimes conducted in asymptomatic individuals or prior to routine surgical procedures, and those with severe symptoms may not be able to access testing or prefer not to test. Testing policies and strategies may vary by province based on strategic decision-making and availability of resources. Estimates of seroprevalence, the proportion of the population who have developed antibodies to SARS-CoV-2, suggest that there have been at least eight times more people infected than cases detected. Daily case numbers only reflect tests conducted and reported. They are not a true picture of overall infections by province or age group. What trends are you seeing by province? We have seen interesting trends in provincial case numbers. Eastern Cape and Western Cape were the first provinces to see increasing case numbers at the start of the second wave, followed by KwaZulu-Natal. Gauteng saw the rise in cases much later, once heightened restrictions were in place, and had a relatively small wave in comparison to the coastal provinces. The third wave saw case numbers in the Free State and Northern Cape slowly start on an upward trajectory. This was followed by North West and Gauteng where case numbers catapulted past the peaks seen with the first two waves. There are several interdependent factors responsible for these differences. They include underlying immunity from previous infections, population movement patterns, adherence to non-pharmaceutical interventions, level of restrictions with respect to timing of the surge, and climatic factors. SARS-CoV-2 variants have also played an integral part in driving the course of the pandemic. The increased transmissibility and immune escape of the Beta variant fuelled the second wave, only to be replaced by the even more transmissible Delta variant. Circulation of these variants of concern likely contributed to the differential provincial pattern. Sequencing data suggest that the Beta variant was still circulating widely when the Free State and Northern Cape began to see rising case numbers in April 2021 . Dominance of the Delta variant was partly responsible for driving the devastating third wave in Gauteng. It seems probable that the dominance of Delta is now fuelling an ongoing increase in cases in Northern Cape and Free State. Delta is unlikely to be the last variant we see and emergence of new variants will continue to shape the trajectory of the pandemic for the immediate future. What can we expect next? Differential vaccine coverage at a provincial-, district-, sub-district- and ward- level is also going to have an impact on the epidemiological patterns in the months to come. Communities with high vaccine coverage rates are likely to see lower case numbers, hospitalisations and deaths related to COVID-19 compared to those with poor vaccine coverage. Even with slightly lower efficacy of the SARS-CoV-2 vaccines currently in use against the pervading variants of concern, there will be a dramatic reduction in severe COVID-19 disease as a result of the national vaccine rollout. Any epidemiological analyses will need to take the vaccine coverage into account in order to make sense of the data. Moving forward, how we interpret the daily case numbers and deaths will change. Waves will likely be less distinct as a result of drivers acting on multiple timescales. How we respond to each new cluster or resurgence in COVID-19 infections will change. South Africa will need to be more agile in its approach. We need to accept that surges will occur, new variants will appear and booster shots will be needed. We need to move away from considering South Africa to be in a wave or between waves or preparing for the next wave, and start accepting the reality of living with this virus in a world where we can now prevent severe disease.

Mumbai: The RBI on Wednesday said it has imposed a penalty of Rs 15 lakh on The Baghat Urban Co-operative Bank Limited, Solan, for violation of certain norms, including, those related to NPA classification. In another statement, the RBI said it has imposed a penalty of Rs 1 lakh on Delhi Nagrik Sehkari Bank Limited, New Delhi, for non-compliance with certain directions issued by the central bank. The RBI said inspection report of The Baghat Urban Co-operative Bank, based on its financial position as on March 31, 2019, revealed non-adherence with/violation of directions, including non-identification of NPAs, wrong classification of assets, inadequate provisions made due to wrong classification of assets and non-adherence to exposure norms for housing, real estate and commercial real estate (CRE). A notice was issued to the bank to show cause as to why a penalty should not be imposed for violation of the said directions. The Reserve Bank of India (RBI) said after considering the bank's reply and oral submissions, it came to the conclusion that the charges were substantiated and warranted imposition of monetary penalty. The inspection report of Delhi Nagrik Sehkari Bank, based on its financial position as on March 31, 2019, revealed non-adherence with prudential inter-bank (gross) exposure limit, RBI said. For both cases, the RBI said the penalties are based on deficiencies in regulatory compliance and are not intended to pronounce upon the validity of any transaction or agreement entered into by them with their customers. ### Response:

Australia's men's cricket team is going through a lean patch in the year 2021. After being handed a defeat by a young Indian side in Tests, they did not do well in the limited-overs format either. They lost the T20I series to the West Indies and now, they have been handed a 1-4 defeat by Bangladesh in the recently concluded T20I series. It has never happened before in the history of cricket. It seems Australia's team management did not take the defeat easily. Coach Justin Langer and team manager Gavin Dovey burst out their anger at a CA staffer. Actually, they were upset about a video posted on the Cricket Australia website that had scenes from the Bangladesh camp celebrating their series win over Australia. In the two minutes long video, the Tigers are seen shouting and cheering in jubilation. Also, in the end, the video had a clip of the Bangladesh team singing their national anthem which did not go well with Langer and Dovey. Gavin Dovey initially raised the matter with the staffer in a conversation that escalated after the latter stood his ground. Justin Langer, after getting to know about the incident, took aim at the staffer. He eventually discussed the matter to bid for a common ground which could not happen. Team Manager addressed the public on the issue Gavin Dovey did not hesitate to talk about the incident publicly. Earlier, the animated discussion between him and the staffer had taken place in front of a dozen people, for which Dovey took full responsibility. Justin Langer, however, decided not to make any comments. "A healthy team environment includes the ability to have honest and frank discussion, whether it be between players, support staff or others within the team environment, which was the case here. There was a difference of opinion and we agreed to disagree on a particular matter. In hindsight, it was one of those instances which should have taken place in private. I take full ownership of that," said Dovey. ### Response:

Saahil Goel, the cofounder and CEO of the logistics enabler firm Shiprocket, took a masterclass on How To Get The First 1,000 Orders For Your D2C Brand at The recently held D2C Summit Goel's session helped brands understand how to grow their businesses step by step by adopting a well-structured, systematic approach Here are some excerpts and insights as Goel elaborated the basics of building a brand and taking it to the next level "Thanks to platforms like Shopify and Facebook, it is now possible for a manufacturer, importer or anyone else who is developing or sourcing products to reach directly to consumers (D2C) in a few days.Read all the latest updates on COVID-19 here. It is a pretty large market, and it is getting larger as we speak," Saahil Goel, cofounder and CEO, Shiprocket. Home to more than 800 D2C brands and catering to over 190 Mn online shoppers in CY2021, it is not surprising that the Indian D2C market is estimated to cross $100 Bn by 2025 . The business model has taken the world by storm, helping companies survive the challenges of the pandemic and scale exponentially. Better still, it is changing the game for almost all businesses - new-age brands, early-stage startups and even the traditional behemoths. Despite the apparent simplicity of a digital-first approach, the D2C journey often gets too complex too often. In truth, adopting new capabilities to double down on growth can never be easy as companies need to rethink strategy and develop an all-new playbook to get started. To deep dive into the workings of the burgeoning D2C sector and help its many adopters, Inc42 recently held a two-day D2C Summit . The event saw many storied names from the startup ecosystem support the cause and provide D2C brands with actionable insights to fast forward their journey. The first day of the summit saw Shiprocket's Saahil Goel take a masterclass on How To Get The First 1,000 Orders For Your D2C Brand . Taking the audience through the basics of building and scaling a D2C brand, Goel's session went on to reveal a systematic, step-by-step approach that companies should adopt to identify the essence of their operations and build on those activities. According to him, the first step towards building any business is experimentation. "The beauty of adopting D2C is that you can get it wrong a few times and experiment. Today, the cost of launching is not very huge. So, you can try out different products, try selling, run marketing (campaigns) and see where things land." Here are the excerpts and insights from Goel's session at The D2C Summit, hosted by Inc42 Plus and Shiprocket . Finding The Right Product Or Niche "Finding the right product niche is extremely important before you start to scale your business. You can start with a small market. Because look, India has got more than a billion people. So, if you can find a problem that is very specific to a certain segment, it is worth taking a shot," explained Goel. Then again, the pandemic has brought about some major changes. It is not just the shift in consumers' buying behaviour, their preference to shop online. It has also created a need for brands to focus on interaction, storytelling and the value their products bring for bonding with their target audience. Given how closely brands are now associated with people and their perspectives, there are three ways an aspiring entrepreneur may choose the niche or the product: Go for products that solve a problem: Pick everyday categories that fulfil some need or deal with challenges faced by the consumer. Choose a passion project or ride on your strength : Pick categories that you are passionate about. Or if you have strong knowledge of something, focus on it. Hop on trends and track what's working : Follow the market trends - what is working, what consumers prefer and why, which products are scaling fast in India and abroad. That will give you a fair idea of what people relate to or find interesting/attractive. Once the category is final, entrepreneurs can dive deeper, innovate and put their own spin. While it is essential to figure out your focus category and audience, it is equally important to understand what will make the startup or the product unique in the market. Determining your target audience and deciding on product sourcing would be the next set of priorities on the to-do list, said Goel. "As you think about your niche, you need to think about who is going to buy your product. You have to find your target customers and figure out what will motivate them to use your product." Saahil Goel, CEO of Shiprocket reveals the sure-shot mantra for D2C companies to reach their target consumer: Selecting The Brand Name The next part is about choosing a brand name. It is important to choose a name that customers can easily remember and pronounce. The name should also be unique as it aids brand recall. Choosing names that can be confused with other brands may cause the business to lose its customers. "You should find what domain names are available instead of selecting a brand name first and then doing a Google search to see whether the domain is available and then settling for a different extension," explained Goel. Creating A Web Store We live in a digitally advanced world where an online business can be created in a few weeks. Any up-and-coming brand can get help from enablers such as Shopify and WooCommerce and create an online store. While looking for the right platform to build the interface, brands should compile a list of features they would require for their product categories and match those with the shopping cart features available for implementation, said Goel. Taking the audience through a web store and explaining the easiest and the best ways of accomplishing this task, he elaborated things further. "Many tools are now available in the market. You have Shopify, WooCommerce, and then there are others like Wix and OpenCart. As you know, we spent several years in the shopping cart market ourselves, and I think Wix is the simplest to use." A web store also defines a brand's presence on social media, which is extremely important. An effective 'social' presence is the most critical part of marketing and promotion for brands. "Besides your web store, it is essential to set up your brand profile on social platforms, which means setting up a brand page on Instagram, Facebook, WhatsApp Business and more," said Goel. Especially in the D2C segment, it is imperative to ensure that the brand is socially present. In fact, it is all the more crucial when a brand is still in its early stages and cannot spend a lot of money on marketing. However, it can organically create the first set of customers through its social media channels. "Basically, be present on social media and start talking about your brand. Think about what you are posting and make sure it is something that you really want to say. It should be inspiring; it should be something that people can connect with. And that is how you get your brand known," - Shiprocket's Goel. Setting Up The Supply Chain By this time, a brand should be ready to process its first order. Goel said that companies must have access to a well-planned supply chain before sales start to avoid order fulfilment issues. Also, one should keep in mind the following points while setting up a process for order fulfilment: Inventory management and pre-shipping preparations Selecting and integrating a shipping service that works best for the brand Post-shipping engagement with buyers to ensure a seamless and hassle-free experience Catch all the sessions from the D2C Summit, from Goel's masterclass to insights from FMCG leaders, from SUGAR founders' experience to what the leading VCs from the startup ecosystem think about the road ahead, at The D2C Academy.

Prime Minister Narendra Modi on Monday took a veiled dig at previous Congress-led United Progressive Alliance (UPA) regime, saying that the previous government had no modern approach and policy for metro. Prime Minister Narendra Modi on Monday took a veiled dig at previous Congress-led United Progressive Alliance (UPA) regime, saying that the previous government had no modern approach and policy for metro. Speaking at the 'Bhoomi Poojan' of Ahmedabad Metro Rail Project Phase-II and Surat Metro Rail Project via video conferencing, the Prime Minister said over 450 kms of metro network became operational in the last six years. "Work on projects worth Rs 17,000 crore is starting from today. This shows that the country's efforts for new infrastructure projects is increasing during COVID-19. Ahmedabad and Surat are cities that will empower self-reliant India. Ahmedabad and Surat are receiving very important gifts today. Metro will further strengthen the connectivity in two major business centres of the country - Ahmedabad and Surat," he said. "These metro projects are being conceptualised to meet the needs of the future. Our cities will get better facilities," PM Modi said. He further added that during the previous regime there was less significant work on expansion of metro railways in the country. The Prime Minister said work is underway on 1,000 kms long metro network in 27 cities. "Before 2014, only 225 kms of metro line became operational in 10-12 years. In last 6 years, over 450 kms of metro network became operational. At present, work is underway on 1,000 kms long metro network in 27 cities. Once there was no modern approach for metro, and there was no metro policy. As a result, there are different metro in different cities based on different techniques and facility. There was no integration of metro with other public transport mediums," he asserted. "Today, we are developing transportation system of cities as integrated system. We are developing cities' transport system like integrated system, which means that bus, metro, rail will not ply as per their own design but work as collective system, complementary to each other," he added. The Prime Minister said Surat is eighth biggest city in terms of population and fourth fastest growing city in the world. "Nine out of 10 diamonds are cut in Surat. In Surat, 20 per cent population used to live in jhuggis and now it is only 6 per cent," he added.

New Delhi [India], June 11 (ANI): Congress MLA Kuldeep Bishnoi, who cross-voted in Rajya Sabha polls in Haryana, may soon be removed from membership of the Congress Working Committee (Special Invitee) and suspended from the party, Congress sources said. The party will also write to the Speaker to get his Membership cancelled from Assembly, Congress sources said. | Rajya Sabha Election Results 2022: 'Very Happy That All Our 3 Candidates Have Been Elected to Rajya Sabha', Says BJP Leader Devendra Fadnavis In Haryana, Congress candidate Ajay Maken lost the Rajya Sabha elections to media baron Kartikeya Sharma, the BJP-backed independent candidate, by a "narrow margin", a huge shock for the grand old party which was confident of the winning the seat. "By a very very, very narrow margin, Ajay Maken has lost," Haryana Congress MLA Bharat Bhushan Batra told reporters after the results of the polls held on Friday came in. | Rajya Sabha Election Results 2022: Check Statewise And Partywise List of Winning MPs. Polling was held on June 10 to elect two members to the Upper House of Parliament from Haryana. BJP's Krishan Lal Panwar scored a comfortable victory with 31 votes, leaving the battle for the second seat between Maken and Sharma. Amid allegations of cross-voting and rule violations, the counting of votes was delayed and there was a recounting of votes that went on past midnight. Out of 90 MLAs in the Haryana Legislative Assembly, independent candidate Balraj Kundu abstained and a vote of Congress was rejected leaving 88 votes valid. Sharma, who was backed by the BJP and its ally Jannayak Janata Party (JJP), got 29.6 votes while Maken received 29 votes. Commenting on Congress MLA Kuldeep Bishnoi, the Chief Minister said that he voted openly after listening to his "inner conscience". "He (Congress MLA Kuldeep Bishnoi) has voted openly after listening to his inner conscience. I can say that he has faith in PM Modi's policies and ideology.

What is the real role of technology? There are enough and more debates and discussions where this question has been tabled from different perspectives. Is it to make our work - at home or the office - easier? Is it to build more trust and transparency? It is to improve the quality of life? Is it to entertain us? Is it to replace us? The answers to all the above are always a yes, but it is never as simple as that. One answer, which must take more space, is that technology's role is to make an impact for the larger good, to work with a purpose.A week ago some of the cub journalists at BW Businessworld were understanding storytelling with social impact. True, some of us do not like the word 'storytelling' but journalism, after everything is said and done, is exactly that. The right narratives impact the reader, and hopefully, influence positive behaviour. This is a subject we must train and re-train ourselves on. The big question though is how do we create social impact? Some of us are still grappling with how human interest stories make sense to business readers. Is there really a place for this kind of journalism? There is, and we must learn it better.If one reads the signs around them, whether it is the conversation about a sustainable India or about companies rooting their work philosophy in being purposedriven or the absolute urgency to pay attention to climate change, biodiversity, gender equality, education, food and other similar goals, it is clear that these are prime areas of importance, and will remain so. Everyone must change to become a part of the next normal. Journalism is the same, and technology too is no different.Many examples of 'technology for good', defined as something that makes a difference for the larger good of human lives, have been seen over the years. Tech companies have made it a part of their mandate and in the process look for opportunities to either work with companies including startups that solve for social issues or embark on missions of their own where they make a difference. As India hits its 100 unicorn mark, it is evident that companies that are using tech to create positive benefits for the masses will lead the ranks of the business leaders of tomorrow.The real power of technology will come into play only after this change is the mainstay and not the few sporadic examples in between that we see today. These examples are yet the sign that the change has begun, and everyone must catch up to it very soon. ### Response:

Umran Malik is one of the most talked-about cricketers in the fifteenth edition of the Indian Premier League as he has done well in the tournament so far. Former Australian great Glenn McGrath during a conversation talked about the young Indian fast bowler and said that pace is important. Umran Malik has impressed fans as well as cricketers from across the country on the back of his brilliant bowling in IPL 2022. The young fast bowler's raw pace has rattled batters in the cash-rich league. The right-arm pacer who hails from Jammu is playing for the SRH team in IPL and has so far scalped 10 wickets from the 7 games that he has played. Many former great pacers like Dale Steyn who is also the bowling coach of SRH praised the young fast bowler. Another fast-bowling legend Glenn McGrath talked about Umran Malik. The Australian fast bowler while speaking at an event at the MRF Pace Foundation said, "I think pace is important but it's not everything. You don't want someone bowling 150 kph and spraying it down the leg side or spraying it wide so you have got to have that control. But if you have a bowler bowling at that pace you would want to have longevity. I am sure the selectors will be very interested in him and would love to have someone bowling at that pace for your country" as quoted by PTI. Umran Malik has been a match-winner for SRH and it will be interesting to see how he does in the remaining games for his side. ### Response:

Ross Taylor made 14 for New Zealand against the Netherlands in the third ODI on Monday, coming to the crease and leaving it to a standing ovation. The match was Taylor’s 450th and last for NZ before he retires at the end of a 16-year international career. Taylor, 38, played his last Test against South Africa this year, but decided to make this match at his home ground, Seddon, Park his final bow. Taylor had tears in his eyes during the national anthems as his children, MacKenzie, Jonty and Adelaide, stood by his side. He then went through a guard of honour formed by Netherlands players. Taylor played his first ODI for NZ in 2006 and his first Test the following year. He went on to play 112 Tests, scoring 7,683 runs, including 19 centuries, and 236 ODIs, scoring 8,593 runs. He also scored 1,909 runs in 102 T20Is. As soon as Taylor appeared, the crowd rose to its feet. He hit a six among his 14 runs before mistiming one from Logan van Beek and offering the bowler a return catch. “For me, it was all about being a player who tries to fight, gave it my all, played with a smile,” he told Radio New Zealand.

AP, Manchester City expressed disappointment Sunday that defender Benjamin Mendy became the latest partying Premier League player to breach English coronavirus rules by hosting friends at his house on New Year's Eve. The revelation about Mendy's rule-breaking comes as City deals with the impact of a coronavirus outbreak at the club that led to the postponement of Monday's match at Everton and forced at least five players into self-isolation. Mendy allowed a chef and two friends of his partner to attend his home, a representative for the player was cited as telling "The Sun" newspaper. People from different households are banned from mixing indoors in the northern English area where Mendy lives. "The club is aware of a New Year's Eve Covid-19 breach involving Benjamin Mendy and the subsequent media reporting of it," City said. "While it is understood that elements of this incident have been misinterpreted in the reports, and that the player has publicly apologised for his error, the club is disappointed to learn of the transgression and will be conducting an internal investigation." A statement from Mendy's representative to "The Sun" newspaper expressed regret on behalf of the Frenchman. "Ben accepts that this is a breach of Covid-19 protocols and is sorry for his actions in this matter," the statement said. "Ben has had a Covid test and is liaising with Manchester City about this." On Saturday, a social media image was published of Tottenham trio Erik Lamela, Sergio Reguilon and Giovani Lo Celso attending a large house party in London over the Christmas period in clear breach of the regulations. Tottenham condemned the players, who could now face internal disciplinary action. West Ham's Manuel Lanzini was also in attendance at the same party. The player issued an apology on social media for his 'bad mistake' while the club said the matter had been dealt with internally. Meanwhile Fulham, whose match at Burnley on Sunday has been postponed due to positive cases at the club, is investigating pictures that emerged on social media on Friday showing Aleksandar Mitrovic and his fellow Serb Luka Milivojevic of Crystal Palace, along with their two families on Dec. 31. ### Response:

As the requests from industry stakeholders seeking time and clarity over the new debit and credit card rules mount, the Reserve Bank of India (RBI) has extended the deadline for implementation of three credit card provisions to October 1, 2022. The earlier deadline for the implementation of the 'Master Direction – Debit and Credit Card – Issuance & Conduct Directions, 2022' was July 1, 2022. The deadline remains unchanged for the rest of the provisions and the new timeline provides relief for the implementation on credit card activation via OTPs, breach of credit limit by card issuers and provisions of non-capitalising certain unpaid charges. "Considering various representations received from the industry stakeholders, it has been decided to extend the timeline for implementation of [certain] provisions of the Master Direction to October 01, 2022," RBI said in a notification. It is to be noted that the Indian bank Association had sought to extend the deadline for six months, and RBI has only granted three months' extension. In the first notification, the apex bank had suggested that card issuers seek OTP-based consent from the cardholder to activate a credit card only if the customer has not already activated the card within 30 days of issuance. If no consent is received, RBI has allowed card issuers to close the credit card account of the customer. Secondly, it has asked the card issuers to maintain the sanctioned credit limit and only extend/breach if the cardholder gives his/her consent. Lastly, it had asked card issuers to not capitalise on unpaid charges, levies or taxes for the compounding of interest. RBI further stated that the timeline for implementation of the rest of the provisions of the master direction remains unchanged. What Remains Implementable From July 1? On April 21, 2022, the RBI released a set of guidelines that debit or credit card issuers had to follow. While only three provisions will be implemented from October 1, 2022, the rest of the provisions and changes will be applicable from July 1, 2022. According to the master guidelines, banks and NBFC with a minimum net fund of INR 100 Cr will only be able to become card issuers. The RBI also said that non-banking financial companies (NBFCs) will not be undertaking credit card business without the apex bank's prior approval. Regional rural banks (RRBs) are also permitted to issue credit cards in collaboration with their sponsor bank or other banks. Further, card issuers will have to prescribe an interest rate ceiling in line with other unsecured loans, including processing and other charges, in respect of credit cards as part of their board-approved policy. As for the collection of credit card payments, from third-party agencies, RBI has asked card issuers to refrain from actions that could damage their integrity and reputation and observe strict customer confidentiality. "Card-issuers/their agents shall not resort to intimidation or harassment of any kind, either verbal or physical, against any person in their debt collection efforts, including acts intended to humiliate publicly or intrude upon the privacy of the credit cardholders’ family members, referees and friends, making threatening and anonymous calls or making false and misleading representations," RBI has warned card issuers. With regards to co-branding card arrangements, the role of the co-branding partner will be limited to marketing and distribution of the cards and providing access to other services to the cardholder. Also, the co-branding partner will not have access to information relating to transactions and will not be involved with processes or the controls except being the point of contact in case of grievances.

Ford delivered its first electric pickup truck F-150 Lightning to a customer in Michigan. Nicholas Schmidt became the first owner of Ford's F-150 Lightning electric pickup truck. This delivery could be a massive posturing from Ford because Schmidt already owns a Tesla Model 3 electric car and has a booking for the Tesla Cybertruck which has seen several delays to its production timelines. He was also considering Rivian R1T electric pickup truck, added media reports. Schmidt may have owned electric vehicles in the past but his background in farming made his family skeptical about electric pick-up trucks. "So when there were pickup trucks coming out that were going to be EVs, I said, 'whichever one comes first, I'll buy it,'" he said. Sharing his experience of booking the Tesla Cybertruck for $100, he said nobody in his family could believe it because it was the ugliest thing they'd ever seen. "But it was $100 and I figured, you know, what's the worst that could happen?" ( Ford working on its second electric pickup truck, aims number one e-pickup spot ) Last month, Ford announced that it has completely sold out the 2022 F-150 Lightning electric pickup truck and is not taking any more orders for the current EV model. Ford had also shared in a previous report that the all-new 2022 F-150 Lightning electric pickup truck received more than 2,00,000 reservations. Ford introduced the F-150 Lightning EV last year. ( Ford F-150 Lightning could come with Tesla-like infotainment games ) Ford had shared that the new F-150 Lightning electric pickup truck XLT and Lariat trims will offer a user with an extended EPA-estimated range of 514 km while the Platinum trim will offer an estimated range of 482 km. The automaker has claimed the electric pickup truck also has the ability to power homes in case of blackouts. Ford, with its massive investment plans, is gearing up to compete with popular EV maker Tesla. The former has plans to invest around $20 billion in the next few years to achieve its electrification goals. Hence this first delivery shows Ford's seriousness to rattle Tesla's crown. Tesla, on the other hand, is currently planning to begin the production of its highly anticipated Cybertruck which it introduced in 2019. The production of the Tesla Cybertruck got postponed for consecutive two years and now Tesla chief Elon Musk has confirmed that the electric pickup truck goes into production early next year.Sign on to read the HT ePaper epaper.hindustantimes.com ### Response:

New Delhi, Apr 8 (PTI) The Congress on Friday asked whether the US’ Federal Bureau of Investigation (FBI) is in India to investigate an alleged “Bitcoin scam” which the party had accused the BJP government in Karnataka of covering up last year.Congress’ chief spokesperson Randeep Surjewala alleged that the layers of the alleged “Bitcoin Scam” are finally being unearthed.“Let India’s HM (Home Minister Amit Shah) & CM (Basavaraj) Bommai answer- Is FBI in India to investigate India’s biggest Bitcoin Scam Coverup under Karnataka BJP Govt? If so, release details of the investigation & suspects, including political people?” How many Bitcoins were stolen and of what value, and who in Karnataka is involved, Surjewala asked.He also asked Shah and Bommai to answer if the stolen bitcoins were transferred from the wallet of alleged hacker Sri Krishna.“Whether the ‘Whale Alerts’ reflecting the transfer of the 14,682 stolen Bitfinex bitcoins valued at Rs. 5,240 crores on the two dates- 1st December 2020 & 14th April, 2021, when Sri Krishna was in custody- has any correlation?” he asked in a series of tweets.“What is the role and responsibility of the Chief Minister, Shri Basavaraj Bommai (who was the Home Minister in charge at the relevant time) and others in the State Government? “Why was Interpol not informed? Why did the BJP Government wait for over five months up till 24th April 2021 to write to Interpol and that also after the release of Sri Krishna on 17th April, 2021?” he asked.Surjewala also questioned whether the NIA/SFIO/ED were not informed by the Karnataka BJP Government.At a press conference last year, AICC general secretary in-charge Karnataka Surjewala had alleged that the size of the Bitcoin scam could be much bigger because just on two days on December 1, 2020 and April 14, 2021 illegal transactions worth Rs 5240 crore took place.He had posed a series of questions to Prime Minister Narendra Modi and asked what was the role of Karnataka Chief Minister Bommai, who was the state’s home minister when the alleged scam took place.

The last thing the festivals of Navratri and Dussehra – both celebrations of peace and prosperity – needed was a sludge of negativity. But a recently erupted Garba controversy has done just that. What was supposed to be a traditional evening of dance and merrymaking at a Madhya Pradesh college campus quickly turned tense when a right-wing extremist group raised concerns of ‘love jihad’, which led to the arrest of four men over the weekend. Not just this, there has been more than one instance of trouble brewing around Navratri galas in the country this week. On social media, these incidents in succession have sparked much outrage – with different sections offering different sides of the argument – and raised questions. When do festivities give rise to law and order issues? Is women’s safety ensured at these nights of celebration? Are these events becoming breeding grounds of intolerance and oppression? Garba Controversy: 3 Instances Of When Festivities Went Sour 1. Garba ‘love jihad’ allegations As per reports from Indore in Madhya Pradesh, four men were arrested Sunday night for alleged “public nuisance” at a Garba event organised by Oxford College. Police action came following accusations by right-wing members of Bajrang Dal claiming the men’s presence at the Hindu celebration where ‘young women’ were collected promoted ‘love jihad.’ Of late, the communal idea of ‘love jihad‘ has gained prominence among majority religious circles that accuse Muslims of hatching a conversion conspiracy. Experts have challenged the allegations many times saying no such proof of such conspiracy exists. In the Indore Garba controversy that ensued after saffron members raised issues, two men were students of the college while the other two were their friends. The Superintendent of Police (Indore West) reportedly said the arrests were unfair and occurred despite his orders against them. 2. “Non-Hindu” Garba posters in Madhya Pradesh Even as the noise around the Madhya Pradesh college event hadn’t subsided, reports from the state on Monday claimed the Vishwa Hindu Parishad – a saffron group closely affiliated to the Sangh Parivar and its subsections – had put up posters at certain venues that sought to bar “non-Hindus” from entering Garba events. A spokesperson for VHP, as quoted by Hindustan Times, said, “We are putting posters as a section of people from other communities harass Hindu women or shoot their videos without permission.” These posters have reportedly popped up in pandals across Ratlam where Garba and Navratri are taking place. 3. Scheduled Caste women stopped from playing Garba In a deeply disturbing incident in Vadodara, Gujarat, two women from the Scheduled Caste community were allegedly abused and turned away from a Garba event over the weekend. As per allegations by the family, they were “humiliated” by the upper-caste Garba organisers in Savli. Those targeted involve a woman and an 11-year-old girl, who were told they could not play Garba with the rest of the villagers. A case was registered under the Scheduled Castes and the Scheduled Tribes (Prevention of Atrocities) Act on the complaint of a family member and reports suggest three accused have been arrested.

SS Rajamouli's latest blockbuster RRR continues to woo the audience, and leave a significant mark in the west. For weeks we are hearing praises about Ram Charan-Jr NTR's epic film from international writers and filmmakers, and now another name has been added to the list. Spider-Man into Spider-Verse and The Lego Movie director Christopher Miller is a new fan of the film, and he has shared his view about the film. Miller took his views to Twitter, and he called Rajamouli's vision epic and entertaining enough to sit through the runtime of 3 hours. Christopher said, "RRR is over-the-top ridiculous insanity and it is AMAZING. It’s like Michael Bay and Baz Luhrmann and Stephen Chow teamed up to make a movie. It was 3 hours long but it could have been 4 hours and I would’ve still enjoyed it." Here's the tweet Since its digital release on Netflix, RRR has been garnering rave reviews from various Hollywood celebrities. Jackson Lanzing, who has written titles such as Captain America and Batman Beyond has also showered praises about the film. Jackson's subtle yet impactful praise of the film was duly noted by the film's official Twitter handle which quote-tweeted him and thanked him for his kind words. Jackson Lanzing hopped on to his Twitter handle Tuesday to share a GIF of Ram Charan from the film. In the tweet, he wrote, "Hey Jackson, was RRR the best time you've ever had at the movies?" Me: (followed by Ram Charan's GIF of giving a thumbs up). Jackson meant to imply he thoroughly enjoyed watching RRR. Here's the tweet Set in the 1920s, RRR is a fictional tale based on two of India's revolutionary freedom fighters, Alluri Sitarama Raju and Komaram Bheem. This fictional narrative takes us on a journey of friendship on how the course of history would have changed if these two freedom fighters would have met during their self-imposed exile. ### Response:

AAP candidate Durgesh Pathak waves towards supporters during celebrations after winning Rajinder Nagar by-elections. (Photo credit: PTI) Aam Aadmi Party's Durgesh Pathak on Sunday was declared victorious in the Rajinder Nagar assembly bypoll after he polled 11,468 votes more than nearest rival BJP's Rajesh Bhatia, Election Commission officials said. "All 16 rounds of counting have been completed. AAP candidate Durgesh Pathak has defeated his immediate rival Rajesh Bhatia (of BJP) by a margin of over 11,000 votes," Delhi Chief Electoral Officer Ranbir Singh said.According to official data, AAP's Pathak polled 40,319 votes, while his nearest rival Bhatia managed to get 28,851 votes. Congress' contender Prem Lata could get only 2,014 votes in the bypoll.The bypoll to the crucial assembly seat had taken place on June 23 with a low turnout at 43.75 per cent. Fourteen candidates threw their hats in the fray, which has largely been seen as a battle between a confident AAP and a spirited BJP. Counting of votes had begun at 8 am amid tight security arrangements. At the start of counting of votes, Pathak had a slender lead of 1,500 votes over Bhatia which reduced to around 1,000 votes in the end of fifth round of counting. After the sixth round, AAP's Pathak galloped ahead with a margin of 3,000 votes which rose to over 10,000 by ninth round and eventually winning the crucial Rajinder Nagar by-election with a margin of over 11,000 votes. AAP leaders, including the party's national convenor and Delhi Chief Minister Arvind Kejriwal, congratulated Pathak over his victory in the bypoll. "Heartfelt thanks to the people of Rajendra Nagar. I am grateful for this immense affection and love of the people of Delhi. This inspires us to work harder and serve." Kejriwal tweeted in Hindi. "People defeated their dirty politics and appreciated our good work. Thank you Rajendra Nagar, thank you Delhi," he added. Delhi Deputy Chief Minister Manish Sisodia also congratulated Pathak and tweeted in Hindi, "Many many congratulations to my dear brother @ipathak25 (Durgesh Pathak) on being elected MLA from Rajendra Nagar Vidhan Sabha. Congratulations to all the workers of AAP for the victory." "In the heart of the people of Delhi, @ArvindKejriwal ji lives," he added. The bypoll was necessitated in the wake of AAP leader Raghav Chadha leaving the seat after being elected to the Rajya Sabha recently. Chadha was the MLA from the Rajinder Nagar Assembly seat. This was also the first electoral exercise in Delhi after the outbreak of the COVID-19 pandemic in 2020. Twenty-four Covid-positive voters turned out to exercise their franchise in the bypoll, officials had said. Of the total number of eligible voters for the bypoll, 92,221 are male, 72,473 female and four belong to the third gender. Also, 1,899 voters in this assembly seat are in the 18-19 age group, according to the data shared by the office of the Delhi CEO. The Rajinder Nagar bypoll turnout was even lower than the figures recorded in the Rajouri Garden bypoll (46.5 per cent) and Bawana bypoll (44.8 per cent), both held in 2017. In 2015 polls, the two Delhi assembly seats had registered a turnout of 72 per cent and 61.83 per cent, respectively.(With inputs from PTI) ### Response:

The issue of tax exemption to 'Agricultural Income' has been contentious and debated for decades now. Multiple committees highlighted the misuse of exemption in their reports. Here is a review. The exemption of agriculture income from tax without any limit has often been pointed out as being a conduit for avoiding taxes and money laundering, which hinders the growth of the agriculture sector on which a major chunk of the Indian population is dependent on. It has often been reported that rich farmers with large landholdings and companies making profits of crores of rupees are exempted from paying tax as per the existing legal provisions. Despite this being highlighted for many decades in government reports, by lawmakers, and research papers, successive governments have not taken any action to bring agricultural income into the tax net, making it a political issue. What is Agriculture income as defined in the Income Tax Act? 'Agricultural income' in the Constitution refers to that as defined for the purpose of enactments relating to Indian Income Tax according to Section 366(1) of the Constitution. Source: Constitution of India Section 2(1A) of the Income Tax Act defines agriculture income as rent/revenue from agricultural land, agricultural operations, or farmhouse. Section 10(1) of the Act exempts agriculture income from tax. Source: Income Tax Act, 1961 Taxes on agricultural income falls under the ambit of the 'State' as per the Constitution of India which means that enactment of legislations pertaining to taxing agriculture income is the responsibility of State Governments and not the Central Government. Taxes on agricultural income is part of the 'State List' under the seventh schedule of the constitution. Nonetheless, agricultural income is used for rate purposes under certain conditions to determine income tax liabilities. Numerous official reports have highlighted the misuse of agricultural income tax exemption for decades Though the exemption was granted to support farmers improve their conditions, the provision is being misused widely as noted in multiple reports in the past. The same has been highlighted in numerous government reports as well. The Taxation Enquiry Committee in 1924-25 has discussed the issue of tax exemption of agriculture income implying that the issue has been a subject of debate for about a century now. The report states that 'there is no historical or theoretical justification for the continued exemption from the income tax of income derived from agriculture. There are, however, administrative, and political objections to the removal of the exemption at the present time.' The Taxation Enquiry Commission in 1953-54 has also recommended levying a surcharge on agriculture as regards to the non-agricultural income of the assessees. The Wanchoo Committee of 1971 on Direct Taxes suggested that the total exemption of agriculture income should be done away with and be aggregated with other income liable to income tax as the provision was being used for evading tax. It suggested that agricultural income should also be subject to a uniform tax on par with other income. Source: Indian Culture Website, GoI Tax evasion, money laundering, and inequity in taxation have also been highlighted The opportunities offered by the exemption 'for camouflaging black money' have been mentioned in the Raj Committee on Taxation of Agricultural Wealth and Income report published in 1972, which suggests partial integration of agriculture income for taxing. In 1972, the Law Commission of India prepared a report on the 'Proposal for inclusion of agricultural income in the total income for the purpose of determining the rate of tax under the Income Tax Act, 1961.' While preparing the report, the evasion of income tax by assessees by showing their non-agricultural income as agricultural income has been stated as one of the deficiencies of the income tax system. Source: Law Commission of India The Kelkar Committee Report on Tax Reforms in 2002 stated that the exemption to agriculture income is a distortion to both horizontal and vertical equity and encourages laundering of non-agricultural income as agricultural income. Exemption has resulted in leakage to the tune of crores in revenues annually The third Tax Administration Reform Commission (TARC) report of 2014 is among the recent reports that have detailed how the agricultural income of non-agriculturists is being increasingly used as a conduit to avoid tax and for laundering funds, resulting in leakage to the tune of crores in revenues annually. A solution suggested by the Commission was through taxing large farmers by setting income thresholds. It was on the basis of this report that the Comptroller and Auditor General of India (CAG) conducted an audit to ascertain the genuineness and correctness of the exemptions claimed for agricultural income in cases as granted by the Income Tax Department. CAG Report brought to light the inefficiency in the IT Department's functioning The CAG report, published in 2019, studied a sample of 6,778 cases out of 22,195 scrutiny assessments carried out by the income tax department during 2014-15 to 2016-17, of those who had an agriculture income claim of more than Rs. 5 lakhs. The agricultural income of Rs. 3,656.25 crores were claimed in these 6,778 cases of which Rs. 2,544.21 crores were allowed. The CAG report observed that The report noted that such lacunae in the system such as not verifying the expenditures would give way to bringing in black money/unaccounted money into the financial system under the garb of agricultural income. The CAG recommended that the income tax department should tighten its system in allowing exemption of income as agricultural income stating that the existing system is porous and open to misuse following its observations in the audit. Corporates with hundreds of crores of profit are also exempted Other private studies have noted how companies like Kaveri Seeds and Monsanto earned profits of Rs. 215.4 crores and Rs. 138.7 crores in 2014-15 were given exemptions for Rs. 186.6 crores and Rs. 94.4 crores respectively showing the inequity in the exemption. About 4 lakh people who declared agriculture income were granted exemption during 2013-14, with total agricultural income exempted from tax is Rs. 9,338 crores in the assessment period. Though the collection of tax on agriculture income is the state's responsibility, even states have not considered this or failed to implement the legislations successfully. Uttar Pradesh introduced an agricultural income tax in 1948 which was repealed in 1957. Public Accounts Committee stressed on strict compliance with procedures for verification of documents by IT Department In April 2022, the Public Accounts Committee tabled a report in the Parliament on 'Assessments relating to Agricultural Income' in which the committee examined certain paragraphs of the CAG report which dealt with verification of documents for exemption, incorrect reflection in Income Tax Department's database, and mistakes in assessments. The committee stressed on the need for strictly following the procedures for verification of documents for allowing exemptions. The committee also recommended that all cases be individually checked where the agricultural income claim is above Rs. 10 lakhs noting that more than 21 lakh taxpayers claimed agricultural income in their 2020-21 returns and nearly 60,000 of them had reported agricultural income exceeding Rs. 10 lakhs. However, the Income Tax Department reported a shortage of manpower following which the committee asked the Ministry to come up with a mechanism for categorization of cases of agricultural income into three slabs- above Rs. 10 lakhs, Rs. 50 lakhs, and Rs. 1 crore in Computer Aided Scrutiny Selection (CASS) to target high evasion risk cases. The Committee also noted that a major chunk of agriculturists was reluctant to file income tax returns due to practical difficulties arising out of lack of awareness, frequency of going to IT offices and connectivity issues faced to travel to the Income Tax office. Tax on Agricultural Income varies across countries According to OECD, countries offer differential tax treatment for their agricultural sectors under their tax regimes. For instance, Finland and Denmark do not give any preferential treatment to farmers on personal income taxes whereas, in Korea, income from grains and other food crops are exempt from taxation while that from plant cultivation is tax-exempt if the revenue is less than KRW 1 billion. Countries like Latvia, Lithuania, and Norway have set income thresholds for granting exemptions. Agricultural Income ### Response:

By Prasanta Mazumdar GUWAHATI: The Opposition parties are going hammer and tongs at the BJP government for "insulting" the poor. They are criticising the government's plan to mark out the beneficiaries of Arunodoi scheme by putting up signboards outside houses. The scheme features monthly financial assistance of Rs 1,000 to the 19.1 lakh families placed below the poverty line. Assam Congress leader Apurba Bhattacharya said, "We never took pictures of the beneficiaries but the BJP is going to the extent of putting up signboards outside their houses. It is an insult to the poor." AAP's Assam coordinator Bhaben Choudhury also slammed the CM for dividing people. "After the BJP divided people on the lines of religion and caste, the Assam CM is now trying to divide people on the basis of rich and poor. We condemn it," Choudhury said. Two days ago, Sarma said the logo will help in easy identification. "If a rich man has this board, nobody will marry off his or her daughter to that family. So we feel that the rich who get aid will withdraw their names. We want only the eligible to get the benefit," he said. ### Response:

With more than 18 months of the pandemic in the rearview mirror, researchers have been steadily gathering new and important insights into the effects of COVID-19 on the body and brain.Read all the latest updates on COVID-19 here. These findings are raising concerns about the long-term impacts that the coronavirus might have on biological processes such as ageing. As a cognitive neuroscientist, my past research has focused on understanding how normal brain changes related to ageing affect people's ability to think and move - particularly in middle age and beyond. But as more evidence came in showing that COVID-19 could affect the body and brain for months or longer following infection, my research team became interested in exploring how it might also impact the natural process of ageing. Peering in at the brain's response to COVID-19 In August 2021, a preliminary but large-scale study investigating brain changes in people who had experienced COVID-19 drew a great deal of attention within the neuroscience community. In that study, researchers relied on an existing database called the UK Biobank, which contains brain imaging data from over 45,000 people in the UK going back to 2014. This means - crucially - that there was baseline data and brain imaging of all of those people from before the pandemic. The research team analysed the brain imaging data and then brought back those who had been diagnosed with COVID-19 for additional brain scans. They compared people who had experienced COVID-19 to participants who had not, carefully matching the groups based on age, sex, baseline test date and study location, as well as common risk factors for disease, such as health variables and socioeconomic status. The team found marked differences in grey matter - which is made up of the cell bodies of neurones that process information in the brain - between those who had been infected with COVID-19 and those who had not. Specifically, the thickness of the grey matter tissue in brain regions known as the frontal and temporal lobes was reduced in the COVID-19 group, differing from the typical patterns seen in the group that hadn't experienced COVID-19. In the general population, it is normal to see some change in grey matter volume or thickness over time as people age, but the changes were larger than normal in those who had been infected with COVID-19. Interestingly, when the researchers separated the individuals who had severe enough illness to require hospitalisation, the results were the same as for those who had experienced milder COVID-19. That is, people who had been infected with COVID-19 showed a loss of brain volume even when the disease was not severe enough to require hospitalisation. Finally, researchers also investigated changes in performance on cognitive tasks and found that those who had contracted COVID-19 were slower in processing information, relative to those who had not. While we have to be careful interpreting these findings as they await formal peer review, the large sample, pre- and post-illness data in the same people and careful matching with people who had not had COVID-19 have made this preliminary work particularly valuable. What do these changes in brain volume mean? Early on in the pandemic, one of the most common reports from those infected with COVID-19 was the loss of sense of taste and smell. Strikingly, the brain regions that the UK researchers found to be impacted by COVID-19 are all linked to the olfactory bulb, a structure near the front of the brain that passes signals about smells from the nose to other brain regions. The olfactory bulb has connections to regions of the temporal lobe. We often talk about the temporal lobe in the context of ageing and Alzheimer's disease because it is where the hippocampus is located. The hippocampus is likely to play a key role in ageing, given its involvement in memory and cognitive processes. The sense of smell is also important to Alzheimer's research, as some data has suggested that those at risk for the disease have a reduced sense of smell. While it is far too early to draw any conclusions about the long-term impacts of these COVID-related changes, investigating possible connections between COVID-19-related brain changes and memory is of great interest - particularly given the regions implicated and their importance in memory and Alzheimer's disease. Looking ahead These new findings bring about important yet unanswered questions: What do these brain changes following COVID-19 mean for the process and pace of ageing? And, over time does the brain recover to some extent from viral infection? These are active and open areas of research, some of which we are beginning to do in my own laboratory in conjunction with our ongoing work investigating brain ageing. Our lab's work demonstrates that as people age, the brain thinks and process information differently. In addition, we've observed changes over time in how people's bodies move and how people learn new motor skills. Several decades of work have demonstrated that older adults have a harder time processing and manipulating information - such as updating a mental grocery list - but they typically maintain their knowledge of facts and vocabulary. With respect to motor skills, we know that older adults still learn, but they do so more slowly than young adults. When it comes to brain structure, we typically see a decrease in the size of the brain in adults over age 65. This decrease is not just localised to one area. Differences can be seen across many regions of the brain. There is also typically an increase in cerebrospinal fluid that fills space due to the loss of brain tissue. In addition, white matter, the insulation on axons - long cables that carry electrical impulses between nerve cells - is also less intact in older adults. As life expectancy has increased in the past decades, more individuals are reaching older age. While the goal is for all to live long and healthy lives, even in the best-case scenario where one ages without disease or disability, older adulthood brings on changes in how we think and move. Learning how all of these puzzle pieces fit together will help us unravel the mysteries of ageing so that we can help improve quality of life and function for ageing individuals. And now, in the context of COVID-19, it will help us understand the degree to which the brain may recover after illness as well. Jessica Bernard, Associate Professor, Texas A&M University.

Solar storms are not just a space weather phenomenon but also a cultural phenomenon as auroras. People travel to higher latitudes just to witness these light patterns in the night sky. However, this beautiful imagery has also played a role in people underestimating the truly horrifying effects of this 'missile' shot at Earth by our Sun. And to remember what it is capable of, one does not even need to travel much back in time. Just taking a look at the Carrington event in 1859 will showcase what an intense solar storm can do. Even in the low technological era of that time, a solar storm caused sparking and fires in multiple telegraph stations, halted the communication system and caused widespread power outages due to extensive damage to the power grid. And if a similar event were to happen to the Earth today surrounded by hi-tech infrastructure, the damage we will face would be unimaginable. So, is there any hope for us? Some believe that an inexpensive piece of technology could be our savior.The contingency plan of Earth in case of another Carrington event level solar stormThe solar storm experienced during the Carrington event was the most intense geomagnetic storm in recorded history. It is not easy to predict what the world might go through now if a similar storm were to strike the Earth. We rely on technology and communication systems more than ever and power grids essentially save lives if you consider that even the emergency systems like hospitals, are dependent on it. A solar storm like that would burn many satellites, destroy GPS, Internet and mobile networks, cause power failures and even start forest fires.According to a Wired report, if just nine transformers suffered damage from a solar system, the US could face widespread power outages for months. And while this grim picture can be painted further, the question that remains is whether there is a solution to all this. And for most parts, we do not have any. While satellites are reinforced to survive extended solar damage, we do not know how they will react to an unprecedented amount of magnetic flux.But on the surface, we can protect our power grids to give the Earth a fighting chance. According to Wired, John G. Kappenman, a US scientist, could have shown us the right technology to ward off any geomagnetic storms. Kappenman suggested empowering the power grids with capacitors. These are inexpensive devices that block the flow of electricity in case of excessive power or any malfunction.?To cover the entirety of the US, you?re probably in the ballpark of a few billion dollars,? Kappenman told Wired. ?If you spread that cost out, it would equal a postage stamp per year per customer.? A similar system would cost about the same in India. And while it is a cost and resource intensive project, for now power grid hardening is the only solution we might have.Sign on to read the HT ePaper epaper.hindustantimes.com ### Response:

With private city buses, the lifeline of public transport in Mangaluru city, failing to operate to their full strength after the unlock, buses that are plying are overcrowded and passengers are forced to travel on footboard risking their lives. Prior to Covid-19-induced lockdown, the frequency of buses to various locations in the city was high and people didn't have to wait for long. Now, people are forced to wait for a longer time to board buses to their destinations. Dilraj Alva, president of Dakshina Kannada Bus Operators' Association (DKBOA), said all private city buses are not operating now.Read all the latest updates on COVID-19 here. At present, only 232 private city buses are operating. There were more than 350 buses operating across 160 routes in the city in the past. A bus on the shortest route was operating more than 20 trips a day while a bus on the long route had eight to nine trips a day. With all operators failing to ply their buses, commuters are facing inconvenience. As a result, a few people are travelling in their own vehicles -- two-wheelers or cars -- to their workplace rather than depending on the public transport to commute. Bus operators claim that they are unable to meet the expenses with the rise in prices of diesel and spare parts and poor occupancy. Hence, it was not possible to operate the buses to full strength, they said. RTO Ramesh Varnekar said, 'Several private bus owners have surrendered their permits. If people give representations on inconveniences faced by them owing to non-commencement of bus services, then temporary permits can be issued to KSRTC to operate on the said route.' Though Kumpala is situated just 10 km away from Mangaluru, there is no bus service to the place now. Though there were five buses operating to State Bank in Mangaluru and Kottara from Kumpala prior to the Covid-19 lockdown, after the unlock, none of the buses are operating. People have to walk for more than two km to reach the highway to board a bus to various destinations in Mangaluru. 'I was travelling by bus prior to the lockdown to my workplace in Kottara. As buses are not operating, I am forced to walk till Kumpala Bypass covering more than one-and-a-half kilometre to board a bus to Mangaluru. As all the private buses are not operating, there is heavy rush in the bus during the peak hours,' said a private firm employee from Kumpala. 'I saw women and the aged travelling on the footboard of the buses in the morning. As I could not board, I had to wait for a long time to catch another overcrowded bus to reach Mangaluru,' said Disha, a degree student. ### Response:

The three-member team deputed by the Directorate General of Civil Aviation (DGCA) to probe Saturday's incident at the Ranchi airport, where IndiGo staff allegedly denied boarding to a specially-abled child, will look into the operational and legal aspects, including the applicability of the 'regulations for carriage of persons with disabilities and reduced mobility', a senior government official told The Indian Express. The official said the detailed fact-finding probe was initiated as the aviation safety regulator was 'dissatisfied' with IndiGo's report on the incident. 'Specifically, the applicability of the regulation detailing requirements for carriage of persons with disability or persons with reduced mobility will be studied,' said the official. 'Whether it was followed or not will be decided by the probe. In case of any shortcomings on the part of the airline staff, there are provisions to penalise the airline,' the official said. The fact-finding team is expected to submit its report by May 16. The regulation referred to is part of the Civil Aviation Requirements (CAR) (Section 3, Series 'M', Part I), which lays down 'regulations for carriage of persons with disabilities and reduced mobility by air in order to protect them against any form of discrimination and to ensure that they receive all possible assistance during their travel'. 'No airline shall refuse to carry persons with disability or reduced mobility and their assistive aids/ devices, escorts and guide dogs including their presence in the cabin, provided such persons or their representatives, at the time of booking, inform the airline of their requirement(s),' it states. It also states that 'before refusing carriage to any person on the basis of disability, the airline shall specify in writing the basis of such refusal indicating its opinion that transportation of such persons would or might be inimical to the safety of flight'. The CAR defines a 'person with disability' as 'any individual who has a physical or mental impairment' on a permanent or temporary basis that substantially limits one or more major life activities. The three-member team, comprising members from the DGCA's departments of air safety, aircraft engineering and legal, will visit Ranchi and Hyderabad, where the child's parents are based, to collect evidence as part of the probe. 'As part of the investigation, the team will speak with the passengers concerned, and collect video evidence from Ranchi airport to better understand how the events unfolded,' said the official. Responding to queries, an IndiGo spokesperson detailed the company's staff training programme. 'All customer-facing employees at IndiGo, during their induction training, undergo a mandatory disability sensitisation programme… All employees undergo a mandatory refresher every two years on disability assistance,' said the spokesperson. The airline did not respond to queries on whether it considered the CAR regulations on 'carriage of persons with disabilities' and if it had received any communication from the DGCA regarding its report on the incident. In a statement on Monday, the airline's CEO, Ronojoy Dutta, had said the company was of the view 'that we made the best possible decision under difficult circumstances'. 'Throughout the check-in and boarding process our intent, of course, was to carry the family. However, at the boarding area, the teenager was visibly in panic. While providing courteous and compassionate service to our customers is of paramount importance to us, the airport staff, in line with the safety guidelines, were forced to make a difficult decision as to whether this commotion would carry forward aboard the aircraft,' Dutta had said. IndiGo had cited DGCA's guidelines on 'handling of unruly passengers', specifically two clauses. 'Passengers who are likely to be unruly must be carefully monitored, and if deemed to pose a threat to the safety and security of the flight, fellow passengers or staff while on board aircraft, should be refused embarkation or off-loaded,' states one clause. The other clause states that all airlines shall establish a mechanism 'to detect and report unruly passenger behaviour' at check-in, in the lounges, at the boarding gate or any other place in the terminal building in order to 'prevent such passengers from boarding'. This clause of CAR also says: 'In case of occurrence of an act of unruly behaviour while the aircraft is on ground, such cases shall be reported immediately in writing and First Information Report (FIR) may be lodged with security agency at the aerodrome'. ### Response:

Ajith Athrady, Distancing himself from the statements of senior Congress leaders Shamanur Shivashankarappa and M B Patil in support of Chief Minister B S Yediyurappa, former Chief Minister Siddaramaiah on Wednesday said he would speak to both the party leaders and enquire about the context of their statements. Leader of Opposition in Karnataka in Legislative Assembly, who was here to meet Congress former President Rahul Gandhi, also said, 'I will not subscribe to what our leaders said. Both the leaders should not have spoken like that.' D K Suresh, Bengaluru Rural Lok Sabha MP also said they must have spoken in personal capacity under the pressure from their community, but I hope they will correct their statements in the coming days. Shamanur Shivashankarappa, president of the All-India Veerashiva Mahasabha and also Congress MLA from Davangere South, met Yediyurappa on Monday and said the Veerashaiva community was firmly behind him. 'Any effort to dislodge him would not go well with the community," he said. Even Former Minister M B Patil said the Lingayat community will be displeased with the BJP central leaders if they remove Yediyurappa as the chief minister. Reacting to these statements, Suresh said that both leaders' statements were not Congress's opinion. Congress leaders in Delhi were of the view that the statements by both Shivashankarappa and Patil were uncalled for. Congress should focus on exposing the misdeeds of the BJP-led government, instead of supporting Yediyurappa leadership, said a party leader. The Congress government headed by Siddaramaiah in 2018 faced severe criticism from Veerashaiva-Lingayat community leaders when the government decided to give a separate religion tag to the community.

Source: PTI Justin Langer, head coach of the Australian cricket team, was reportedly involved in a confrontation with a Cricket Australia staffer over a video posted on the board’s website, showing the Bangladesh players celebrating their maiden series win against the tourists last week. Langer and Australia team manager Gavin Dovey “became animated” in relation to a video added to the cricket.com.au website, after the third match, which Bangladesh won, taking a 3-0 lead in the recently concluded five-match Twenty20 series, states a Sydney Morning Herald report. The hosts won the five-match T20I series 4-1. The matter was initially raised by Dovey with the Cricket Australia digital staffer but when the latter stood his ground, the matter escalated and Langer subsequently confronted the staff member shortly afterwards. “Dovey had argued that it was inappropriate for the Bangladesh team song to be posted on a CA-operated website,” the report said. “…the incidents were witnessed by at least a dozen people and left some players taken aback and with a sense of unease about what had transpired,” it added. While Langer refrained from commenting on the issue, Dovey said: "A healthy team environment includes the ability to have honest and frank discussions, whether it be between players, support staff or others within the team environment, which was the case here." "There was a difference of opinion, and we agreed to disagree on a particular matter. In hindsight, it was one of those instances which should have taken place in private. I take full ownership of that," he added. CA had two digital media operators in Bangladesh, the only travelling journalists with the team on their two-legged tour of the West Indies and Bangladesh. In the fifth and final Test Australia were dismissed for their lowest ever Twenty20 international total, capping another forgettable campaign with a 60-run loss to Bangladesh.

Political candidates in the state of Bihar always add drama & colour with their antics and stunts in the run-up to elections. Last year, when the state went to polls in assembly elections, an independent candidate from the Bahadurapur constituency was seen arriving on a buffalo to file his nomination. Nachari Mandal, the independent candidate, was photographed riding the animal before he got down to file his nomination. He said he comes from a poor family and didn't have a four-wheeler. "I come from the poor and weaker section of society. I am the son of a farm labourer and since I don't have a four-wheeler so I decided to come on a buffalo. Buffaloes, cows, and oxen are the treasures of a farmer," Mandal had told ANI at the time. Now, as the state gets ready for panchayat elections, a candidate has done a repeat of Nachari Mandal stunt. Bihar panchayat polls candidate Azad Alam came to file his nomination on a buffalo. A video, shared on Twitter by news agency ANI, shows Alam sitting on the bovine animal while being surrounded by a huge crowd on his way to the nomination filing centre. Alam had a stick in his hand and a man was seen guiding the buffalo towards the centre. The candidate from Kathihar district's Rampur panchayat said he arrived on a buffalo because he can't afford petrol or diesel. "I'm a cattleman, I came here on a buffalo because I can't afford petrol or diesel," said Alam. Watch it here: Since being shared, it has racked up over 10,500 views on Twitter. It has also been shared on Facebook and other platforms. While many users found the stunt was amusing and 'environment-friendly', some wrote such things should not be allowed. A user wrote, "We all should laud this gentleman's initiative in reducing global warming and pollution of world scale, I hope he rides the same buffalo if he wins, instead of a long carcade with it deafening sirens." Another quipped: "Only #Yamdoots were notorious for coming on a buffalo to take away the souls from us humans so far!

New York, January 20: US-based drugmaker Moderna has confirmed that it has received a report from California's health department that several individuals at one vaccination centre in San Diego were treated for possible allergic reactions after vaccination from one lot of the company's Covid-19 vaccine. The company is "fully cooperating" with the California Department of Public Health (CDPH) in investigating these reported adverse events, Moderna said on Tuesday. The confirmation comes after California State Epidemiologist Dr Erica Pan on Sunday recommended halting the administration of lot 41L20A of the Moderna Covid-19 vaccine due to possible allergic reactions that are under investigation. Pfizer, Moderna Testing Their COVID-19 Vaccines Against UK Coronavirus Strain: Report. "A higher-than-usual number of possible allergic reactions were reported with a specific lot of Moderna vaccine administered at one community vaccination clinic. Fewer than 10 individuals required medical attention over the span of 24 hours," said Dr Pan. "Out of an extreme abundance of caution and also recognizing the extremely limited supply of vaccine, we are recommending that providers use other available vaccine inventory and pause the administration of vaccines from Moderna Lot 041L20A until the investigation by the Centers for Disease Control and Prevention (CDC), U.S. Food and Drug Administration (FDA), Moderna and the state is complete." All appeared to be experiencing a possible severe allergic reaction during the standard observation period -- a type of adverse event that the CDC reports some people have experienced when receiving a Covid-19 vaccine. The vaccine site switched to another lot of Moderna vaccine after closing for a few hours. Moderna said that it is unaware of comparable clusters of adverse events from other vaccination centres which may have administered vaccines from the same lot, or from other Moderna lots. "Moderna confirmed that a total of 1,272,200 doses were produced in batch number 041L20A, with nearly a million doses (964,900) already distributed to approximately 1,700 vaccination sites in 37 states," the company said in a statement. While Moderna said it does not know how many doses may have ended up in the arms of people, it did report that the lot was shipped between January 4-8, and thus it expects that a significant portion of the distributed doses have already been used. Moderna said a detailed review of the manufacturing intermediates and final drug product was performed including raw materials, batch records, release and characterization testing results, and Moderna shipping and storage records. "The review confirmed that all criteria for product release of lot 041L20A were met," the statement added. (The above story first appeared on LatestLY on Jan 20, 2021 06:19 PM IST.

By Vineet Upadhyay Express News Service DEHRADUN: Uttarakhand Chief Minister Pushkar Singh Dhami on Thursday approved the constitution of a committee to implement a uniform civil code in Uttarakhand. The decision was taken in the first cabinet meeting of Dhami 2.0 after taking oath on Wednesday. "I am happy to inform all of you that the state cabinet has unanimously approved the constitution of a committee of experts. The committee will be formed at the earliest and uniform civil code will be implemented in the state soon," said CM Pushkar Singh Dhami after a cabinet meeting. "It will be a significant step towards fulfilling the dreams of the nation's founding fathers who framed our Constitution. The step will be an effective one towards Article 44 of the Indian Constitution which presents the concept of equitable law for all citizens of society regardless of their religion," added Dhami. Dhami further mentioning that from time to time, the Supreme Court has underscored the BJP government in Uttarakhand will derive inspiration for the decision from Goa which has set an example before the country by implementing a common civil code. Earlier this year in February, Dhami had announced that if the BJP retains power in Uttarakhand, a committee comprising legal experts, retired people, intellectuals, and other stakeholders will be constituted to implement the UCC. Dhami had said that as soon as the BJP goverment takes oath, a committee which will include retired judges, noted people from civil society, experts and others will be formed to prepare a draft of uniform civil code to be implemented in the state of Uttarakhand. He had also added that the implementation of the code will cover all aspects related to marriage, inheritance, divorce and other issues irrespective of which religion they belong to. Implementation of the UCC was also one of the main promises by the BJP in its manifesto titled 'Drishti Patra' (Vision Document) for Uttarakhand. Other promises included land law, increment in pensions of specially abled elderly and others from Rs 1200 to Rs 1500, increment in salaries of ad-hoc teachers, anganwadi workers and many others. In 2019, a Supreme Court bench commenting on the matter had then stated, "Whereas the founders of the Constitution in Article 44 in Part IV dealing with the Directive Principles of State Policy had hoped and expected that the state shall endeavour to secure for the citizens a uniform civil code throughout the territories of India, till date no action has been taken in this regard." ### Response:

New Delhi, Aug 25 (PTI) Some members of the Delhi University Academic Council have strongly opposed the dropping of Mahasweta Devi's short story 'Draupadi' and the removal of two Dalit authors from the English (H) syllabus by the Oversight Committee. The Council on Tuesday had dropped the celebrated short story and the two Dalit authors from BA (Hons) English course while approving changes in its syllabus in on recommendations from the varsity's Oversight Committee. The council had also approved the implementation of the National Education Policy from 2022-23 and four-year undergraduate programmes, overriding a strong dissent from its members, in its 12-hour long meeting on Tuesday. A total of 15 members of the DU Academic Council gave a dissent note stating that there had been "maximum vandalism" in LOCF (Learning Outcomes-based Curriculum Framework) English syllabus for the fifth semester. In the note, they said the Oversight Committee first took a decision to remove two Dalit authors -- Bama and Sukhartharini -- and replaced them with "upper-caste writer Ramabai". "The Committee as an afterthought suddenly asked the English department to delete the celebrated short story of Mahasweta Devi, 'Draupadi' -- a story about a tribal woman -- without giving any academic logic. This is despite the fact that 'Draupadi' has been taught by the University of Delhi since 1999 owing to its seminal academic value," the note read. "Moreover, the Committee refused to accept any short story by Mahasweta Devi despite her iconic status globally as a writer and being a winner of the Sahitya Akademi Award, Jnanpith Award and Padma Vibhushan from the Government of India," it added. The note also said that in a DSE (Discipline Specific Elective) paper titled 'Interrogating Queerness', the Oversight Committee "arbitrarily deleted sections from the units at the expense of the academic rigour of the paper". Calling the changes "arbitrary", they alleged that these were "imposed without sharing any feedback from the stakeholders either with the syllabus committee of the department or with the Committee of Courses". "The Oversight Committee has always shown a prejudice against the representation of Dalits, tribals, women and sexual minorities as evident in its concerted efforts to remove all such voices from the syllabus," they said. The note also alleged that the committee does not have any member from the Dalit or the Tribal community. They also alleged that the committee had harassed other departments and said the OC "continued to harass no end departments like History, Political Science and Sociology while approving their revised LOCF syllabus -- that too only for Semester V". "The Committee directed the History department to incorporate modifications in the syllabus of BA (Hons) History, none of which belong to the discipline of History," they said. Professor M K Pandit, chairman of the oversight committee told PTI, "I didn't know that an author was Dalit. The head of the English department was part of all the meetings." "Is he not an expert on the subject. The Dean of Arts, Social Sciences were part of the meetings. Are they not experts? There is bound to be dissent in a democracy. They are our colleagues and we respect their viewpoint," he added. He said a certain story has been taught for ages and there is bound to be revision, he said. In 2019, a right-wing teachers' outfit had claimed that the syllabi of four subjects are pro-Left.

Shilpa Shetty Kundra had been through a lot in the last few years since her husband Raj Kundra was arrested. The actress was also drawn into the incident, and the Mumbai police recorded her statement as well. Shilpa has finally spoken up about it. She mentioned the difficult period in her life, albeit she did not directly address the matter. The Dhadkan actress said at the trailer premiere ceremony for her next film 'Nikamma' that we've all gone through a difficult time in our lives. According to reports, the ED is looking into Raj's and others' money dealings in the racketeering case. According to an ED source, the case was registered last week after a thorough review of all the evidence. Although no date has been set for Raj Kundra's summons, the ED is expected to begin questioning next week, according to the report. Raj Kundra was arrested last year for his suspected involvement in a pornography ring. After being arrested for a few months, he was freed on bond in December. Raj Kundra issued a statement after his release, calling the entire affair a "witch hunt." In addition, the businessman denied being involved in the production and dissemination of 'pornography.' An excerpt from his statement read, "After much contemplation, considering there are many misleading and irresponsible statements and articles floating around and my silence has been misconstrued for weakness. I would like to start by stating that I have NEVER been involved in the production and distribution of 'pornography' EVER in my life."

When Jakob Bitner was 7, he left Russia for Germany with his parents and sister. Twenty-eight years later, he is set on solving a vexing green-energy problem that could help Germany end its dependency on imported energy from Russia, or anywhere.Click here to get the latest updates on Ukraine - Russia conflict The problem: how to make wind and solar energy available 24 hours a day, seven days a week, even if the sun is not shining or the wind not blowing. The company he co-founded in Munich in 2016, VoltStorage, found some success selling storage battery packs for solar power to homeowners in Europe. Now the company is developing much larger batteries - each about the size of a shipping container - based on a chemical process that can store and discharge electricity over days, not just hours like today's most popular battery technology. These ambitions to overcome the unreliable nature of renewable energy fit perfectly with Europe's targets to reduce dependence on fossil fuels. But Bitner's company is facing a frustrating reality that threatens to undercut Europe's plans and poses a wider challenge in the global fight against climate change: a lack of money to finish the job. VoltStorage needs "significantly" more money to develop its new battery technology, Bitner said. In 2020 and 2021, the company raised 11 million euros, or $12 million. Now, it is trying to raise up to 40 million euros more by this summer. "Even though we had great early-stage investors from Germany and Europe that keep supporting us, it becomes very hard to raise the tickets we need right now," Bitner said, referring to individual investments. Europe offers a preview for the rest of the world. The European Union has aggressive targets to reduce greenhouse gas emissions, and there is broad political support for tackling climate change. The bloc has poured public money into grants for developing new technology. But after getting initial startup money or grant funding, businesses are struggling to raise funds for the kind of innovative, large-scale projects needed to complete the transition from carbon-spewing sources of energy. The funding gap means Europeans face the prospect of either falling short of ambitious climate targets or further energy shortages and rising costs. Solutions are available if given a financial boost, experts said. Almost half the reductions in emissions to meet net zero targets by 2050 will come from technologies currently in their infancy, according to the International Energy Agency. There is, in theory, plenty of capital available globally for the multitrillion-dollar task of funding this transition to greener energy. The war in Ukraine has made Europe's energy transition even more urgent. The EU has said it would cut imported Russian natural gas by two-thirds this year and completely by the end of the decade. While some of that supply will be made up by imports from other countries, such as the United States and Qatar, expanding domestic renewable energy capacity is a critical pillar to this plan. But attracting investors to projects trying to move beyond mature technologies like solar and wind power is tough. Venture capitalists, once cheerleaders of green energy, are more infatuated with cryptocurrencies and startups that deliver groceries and beer within minutes. Many investors are put off by capital-intensive investments. And governments have further muddied the water with inconsistent policies that undermine their bold pledges to reduce carbon emissions. Venture capitalists' other interests Tony Fadell, who spent most of his career trying to turn emerging technologies into mainstream products as an executive at Apple and founder of Nest, said that even as the world faces the risks of climate change, money is flooding into less urgent developments in cryptocurrency, the so-called metaverse and the digital art collections sold as NFTs. Last year, venture capitalists invested $11.9 billion in renewable energy globally, compared with $30.1 billion in cryptocurrency and blockchain, according to PitchBook. Of the $106 billion invested by venture capitalists in European startups last year, just 4% went into energy investments, according to PitchBook. "We need to get real," said Fadell, who now lives in Paris and has proposed ideas on energy policy to the French government. "Too many people are investing in the things that are not going to fix our existential problems. They are just investing in fast money." It has not helped that the industry has been burned before by a green tech boom. About 15 years ago, environmentally conscious startups were seen as the next big thing in Silicon Valley. One of the premier venture capital firms, Kleiner Perkins Caufield & Byers, made former Vice President Al Gore a partner and pledged that clean energy would eventually make up at least one-third of its total investments. Instead, Kleiner became a cautionary tale about the risks of investing in energy-related companies as the firm missed out on early backing of social media companies like Facebook and Twitter. There is evidence that these old fears are receding. Two years ago 360 Capital, a venture capital firm based in Paris and Milan dealing in early-stage investment, introduced a dedicated fund investing in clean energy and sustainability companies. The firm is now planning to open up the fund to more investors, expanding it to 150 million euros from a 30 million euro fund. There are a growing number of dedicated funds for energy investments. But even then there is a tendency for the companies in them to be software developers, deemed less risky than builders of larger-scale energy projects. Four of the seven companies backed by 360 Capital's new fund are artificial intelligence companies and software providers. Still, the situation has changed completely since the company's first major green-energy investment in 2008, Fausto Boni, the firm's founder, said. "We see potentially lots of money coming into the sector and so many of the issues we had 15 years ago are on their way to being overcome," he said. But the availability of bigger investments needed to help companies expand in Europe still lags behind, he added. The funding gap Breakthrough Energy Catalyst, which is backed by Bill Gates, is trying to fill the gap. It was formed in late 2021 to help move promising technology from development to commercial use. In Europe, it is a $1 billion initiative with the European Commission and European Investment Bank to support four types of technologies - long-duration energy storage, clean hydrogen, sustainable aviation fuels and direct air capture of carbon dioxide - that it believes need to scale quickly. In Europe, there are "significant difficulties with the scaling up phase," said Ann Mettler, the vice president for Europe at Breakthrough Energy and a former director general at the European Commission. There is money for startups but when companies become reasonably successful and a bit larger, they are often acquired by American or Chinese companies, she said. This leaves fewer independent companies in Europe focused on the energy problems they set out to solve. Companies that build complex - and often expensive - hardware, like Bitner's batteries for long-duration energy storage, have an especially hard time finding investors willing to stomach the risks. After a few investment rounds, the companies are too big for early-stage investors but too small to appeal to institutional investors looking for safer places to park large amounts of cash. "If you look at typical climate technologies, such as wind and solar and even the lithium-ion batteries, they took well over four decades to go from the early R&D to the large-scale commercialization and cost competitiveness," Mettler said, referring to research and development. "Four decades - which obviously we don't have." What investors want There are some signs of improvement, including more funds focused on clean energy or sustainability and more companies securing larger investment rounds. But there is a sense of frustration as investors, companies and European governments agree that innovation and adoption of new technology need to happen much more quickly to dramatically reduce carbon emissions by 2030. "You won't find a place in the world that is more attuned to what is needed than Europe," Mettler said. "It's not for lack of ambition or vision - it's difficult." But investors say government policy can help them more. Despite climate pledges, the regulations and laws in place haven't created strong enough incentives for investments in new technologies. Industries like steel and concrete have to be forced to adopt greener methods of production, Boni, the 360 Capital founder, said. For energy storage, hydrogen, nuclear power and other large-scale projects, the government should expedite permitting, cut taxes and provide matching funds, according to Fadell, who has put his personal fortune into Future Shape, which backs startups addressing societal challenges. "There are few investors willing to go all in to put up $200 million or $300 million," Fadell said. "We need to know the government is on our side."

National Team skipper Sunil Chhetri says he always feels at home while in Kolkata.As the countdown for the AFC Asian Cup qualifiers begin, Sunil opens up about his fondest memories of Kolkata, the fans in the 'City of Joy,' India's preparation, the current crop of Liston, Manvir, and others, and much more. EXCERPTS: What memory does Kolkata bring to you? A lot of fond memories — I started my career here. I got the taste of the Kolkata maidan here which is really special. I am married here and have an excellent family here. I am always at home in Kolkata. Any specific football memories? I have always maintained that you may have played in every club and part of India, but if you haven't got a taste of playing here in Kolkata, you are not complete as a player. The fans just love you here. Obviously, I have also been at the receiving end many times. I had my first brush of the Bengali language here at the Maidan - both in the form of love and abuses (laughs aloud). The VYBK - that's a stadium where you first played as a teenager some two decades back. Describe the feeling when you lead your country through the same player's tunnel. It is a surreal feeling, and the respect has been a mutual one. For the past few years, I have been playing against them for the club, but whenever I have worn the National team jersey, it's always been genuine support, and that's what I am expecting even this time. Football fans in Kolkata will never fail you. What's the mood in the camp? How confident are you about playing your 3rd Asian Cup? That's the ultimate goal. The mood is happy, and slowly and steadily everyone is getting fit — everyone is trying to understand each other. It's quite a new team and a lot of places are up for grabs. There's also a lot of new talent coming up. The good part is that everyone is hungry. We are hoping to get the right balance. Irrespective of who gets a chance, we will put our best foot forward. Is it tricky that it’s only one match against all oppositions, rather than a usual double leg? It's a catch-22 situation. Simply because we have got home advantage, I'd say it would have been better if we got two games purely on the fact that we are playing at home. But it is what it is. It doesn't matter now, and everyone has a fair chance. Playing at home comes with its own advantage, as much, there will be pressure. In comparison to 2011 to 2019 and now - what has changed in the team? The personalities are different. Add to that the fitness and the manner the boys approach the game are also entirely different. The knowledge that the current batch has gained on and off the field makes it a very distinct difference. Is Sunil Chhetri's job nowadays easier with the likes of Liston, Brandon, Suresh, Manvir, Thapa, and all others with you? I would say it's more of a responsible job. I'd not want to categorise it as either easy or hard. Sometimes I get into this vicious circle of thinking about it, and it affects my game in a manner I don't like. So, I prefer to stay away from it. I try to keep my job simpler because I can do as much as I can do. The best feeling is when I go out and give whatever I have. ### Response:

The issue is not with OTT or the fact that individuals choose to wait a month before going to the movies. Most movies these days lack the elements that draw audiences to the theatre due to their bad substance. Even movies with big-name actors have been losing money one after another. By the monday after the weekend they are released, they have lost their appeal. Which current movie, now that I think about it, is still in theatres after its seventh week? One stands out in particular: "Bhool Bhulaiyaa 2," which is still playing in a few theatres despite having been released on an OTT platform after a four-week run. With the way movies are distributed today-in hundreds of theatres with numerous showings each day-if a movie is going to be successful, it will start to show signs of success on Day One and make a few hundred crores within three to four weeks. All notable films have demonstrated that. Even as hindi films struggle, South dubbed films keep succeeding. The top names are all putting out flop after flop, which is the problem. They don't take a break, though, like many previous stars did before returning to perform various and occasionally significant roles. When their ages started to work against them, amitabh bachchan, mithun Chakraborty, Jackie Shroff, Anil Kapoor, and the late rishi kapoor all took a hiatus from acting.

The US imposed sanctions on five North Korean and Russian organisations as well as one entity in China on Thursday after Pyongyang fired its first intercontinental ballistic missile (ICBM) after 2017. Announcing the sanctions, US State Department spokesperson Ned Price said: "The United States today announced sanctions on five entities and individuals located in Russia and the DPRK, and one entity in the People's Republic of China (PRC) for proliferation activities under the Iran, North Korea, and Syria Nonproliferation Act".Click here to get the latest updates on Ukraine - Russia conflict Price said the measures are part of American efforts to prevent North Korea advance its missile programme and "highlight the negative role Russia plays on the world stage as a proliferator to programs of concern", reported The Korea Times. Meanwhile, the ICBM tested by North Korea flew 1,100 km for around one hour and fell in Japanese waters, increasing distrust among neighbours--Japan, South Korea and North Korea. The missile was reportedly fired from the Pyongyang international airport. Pyongyang has unleashed a flurry of missile tests this year, firing some of its missiles from trains, submarines and various places. Seoul responded with five missile tests from land, sea and air, while Japan alleged that the missile has the capacity to reach the American east coast. Japanese news agency Kyodo reported on Friday that Japanese Foreign Minister Yoshimasa Hayashi and his South Korean counterpart Chung Eui Yong spoke over the developments and have decided to enhance cooperation between themselves and also with the US to contain the increased threat from North Korea. Japanese Defence Minister Nobuo Kishi told media persons that North Korea's firing of the ICBM was "a serious threat to the peace and stability of Japan and the international community, moving to a different dimension from its series of previous missile launches". Kyodo news agency says that the missile is capable of travelling over 15,000 km and reaching the whole of the US mainland including its east coast. Coming on the heels of the Russian invasion of Ukraine, the missile test has unnerved countries in the region. Kishi said: "We cannot tolerate North Korea conducting this missile launch that could escalate its provocations against the international community at a time when the world is focusing on Russia's aggression against Ukraine". ### Response:
