Union Minister of State (Independent Charge) Science & Technology Jitendra Singh on Sunday carried out an on-site review of the River Devika Rejuvenation Project here and inspected the finishing touches in progress on the completion of Rs 190 cr centrally funded Project which is the first of its kind river project in North India and was launched by Prime Minister Narendra Modi in 2019. Jitendra Singh's visit to the project was to see the last-minute finishing touches before it is dedicated to the nation, most likely by Prime Minister Narendra Modi in the near future, read a press statement from Ministry of Personnel, Public Grievances & Pensions.
Built on the lines of 'Namami Gange', the Project was launched by the Prime Minister in February 2019. Speaking on the occasion, Jitendra Singh said there had been a long pending demand for renovation, rejuvenation and beautification, but none of the earlier governments paid any heed.
He said it was only after 2014 that this first-of-its-kind river rejuvenation project was undertaken in North India on the lines of Namami Ganga. During the over one-hour review, the Chief Engineer, UEED, engineers from the PWD and Irrigation Department, officials from the district administration and public representatives were among those present at the site.
The Minister directed officers of the PWD (R&B) and Municipal Council Udhampur to ensure a dedicated feeder for uninterrupted power supply, besides maintaining cleanliness and beautification of the Ghat area. Earlier, Dr Jitendra Singh said, the year 2023 has been historic for India on many fronts. It was in this year that India landed on the Moon and attained the Presidency of the G20, the Minister mentioned. The world is now ready to be led by India, he asserted.
Jitendra Singh was speaking to reporters after listening to the latest edition of the Prime Minister's monthly address to the nation 'Mann Ki Baat' at Saint Thomas' Church here. He described the Mann Ki Baat programme as one of the many legacies of Prime Minister Modi in the last ten years. He said PM Modi has been sharing his ideas on many pressing issues and highlighting other matters through his monthly broadcast on Akashvani to lead the nation in addressing them.
Jitendra Singh urged everyone to play their part in realising PM Modi's vision of a developed India by 2047. In this regard, Singh laid emphasis on maintaining personal fitness as stressed by the Prime Minister in today's Mann Ki Baat. The Minister stated that fit and bodily sound citizens can channel their energies to make India a developed nation. Jitendra Singh said the basis for making "Viksit Bharat" has been laid in the outgoing year. Now, the youth have to work on solidifying that base during the upcoming 25-year journey in the run-up to the target year of 2047.
The Minister said India is all set to emerge as the fourth-largest economy next year. Exuding confidence, Dr Singh said that during Prime Minister Modi's 3rd term in office, India would reach the milestone of becoming the 3rd largest economy in the world. Jitendra Singh said the role of Jammu and Kashmir would be of great significance as India achieves such a feat. Dr Singh said many innovations and the best practices adopted by J&K in areas like agriculture and horticulture are now being replicated in other northern States like Uttarakhand. (ANI)

Shimla, December 31
Following the detection and spread of Apple Leaf Blotch Miner pest in Kashmir, the Department of Horticulture here has decided to strengthen the monitoring of the planting material coming from Kashmir.
Apple growers welcome move
Ensuring that we get pest and disease-free planting material is the need of the hour. There’s a big threat of new diseases entering our orchards if the planting material is not checked for pests, fungal and viral diseases before being planted in the orchards. Harish Chauhan, Convener, Sanyukt Kisan Manch
“The employee of the Horticulture Department will be present on entry points to the state to check the planting material coming from Kashmir and Uttarakhand. No planting material will be allowed into the state without proper documents and certification,” said Senior Plant Protection Officer Kirti Sinha.
"And even if someone manages to sneak in the planting material illegally, it will be destroyed as and when found by the department. We have made flying squads in each district for this purpose," he said.
According to Sinha, a large amount of planting material comes to the state from Kashmir and the Apple Leaf Blotch Miner pest could easily travel here with the "illegal planting material". "The pest has caused substantial damage in certain part of Kashmir. It eats up chlorophyll in the leaves. We will ensure no planting material from the affected areas, and without the required documentation and certification is brought into the state," said Sinha.
Wary about the growing number of diseases over the last few years, apple growers have welcomed the move. "Ensuring that we get pest and disease-free planting material is the need of the hour. There's a big threat of new diseases entering our orchards if the planting material is not checked for pests, fungal and viral diseases before being planted in the orchards," said Harish Chauhan, convener of the Sanyukt Kisan Manch.
He further said the government and the horticulture department should be equally strict with regard to the planting material coming from Meanwhile, the department has also urged growers to not buy planting material from nurseries not registered with the department.

Sabonis triple-double leads Kings to 123-92 win over Grizzlies
MEMPHIS - Domantas Sabonis collected his sixth triple-double as the Kings beat the Memphis Grizzlies 123-92 on New Year's Eve.
Sabonis had 13 points, 21 rebonds and 12 assists. Malik Monk added 27 points while De'Aaron Fox scored 24.
Sacramento shot 50% overall and 52% from beyond the arc before both teams went to the reserves to close out the game. Monk was 10 of 13 from the field and missed just one of his five 3-point shots.
Jaren Jackson led Memphis with 18 points. Desmond Bane, Ja Morant and Luke Kennard finished with 17 points apiece as the Grizzlies lost their third in a row.

For the first time, Memphis had most of its roster available against the Kings, except for frontline players Steven Adams and Brandon Clarke, who are dealing with long-term recoveries.
Kennard was one of those returning after missing 20 games with a left knee bruise.
The Kings were coming off a 117-110 win over Atlanta on Friday in which Fox had 31 points and they put up 70 points in the first half, shooting near 50%, including 9 of 19 from outside the arc.

Unique date draws couples to Las Vegas for New Year’s Eve weddings
Updated December 31, 2023 - 7:58 pm
New Year’s Eve in Las Vegas this year was a once-in-a lifetime affair, with a date sequence that won’t be seen for another hundred years.
Aside from the New Year Eve revelry and fireworks, couples from across the country came to Las Vegas to get married on 12/31/23, which creates a 1-2-3, 1-2-3 pattern.
The happy couples included a pair who first met as children, two newlyweds married by the drag queen “Sh-Elvis,” and a self-proclaimed “midget wrestler” who rode into the ceremony with her soon-to-be husband in a pink Cadillac.
“You’ve got people who look at the date and go, ‘That’s a date I’m going to remember,’” said Diana Moran, the head minister at the Little White Chapel, Vegas Weddings and the Viva Las Vegas Wedding Chapel.
Moran said New Year’s Eve is always a busy day for Las Vegas’ wedding industry, but the unique date raised demand even higher on Sunday. She planned to officiate about 25 weddings by the end of the night.
An estimated 356,000 visitors were expected to be in town for Sunday’s New Year’s Eve celebrations. Fireworks were set to light up the night sky above the Strip at the MGM Grand, Aria, Planet Hollywood, Caesars Palace, Treasure Island, The Venetian, Resorts World and the Strat, while the Fremont Street Experience hosted the “NYE Time of Your Life Festival” with live performances including Third Eye Blind, Big Gigantic and Blackstreet.
As revelers prepare for the celebration Sunday night, the National Weather Service is expecting relatively calm weather this year. Meteorologist Trevor Boucher said there is a less than 5 percent chance of light showers at midnight, and the weather service is not tracking any significant wind. Higher elevations may see a snow flurry or two, but there will likely only be a few passing clouds in the Las Vegas Valley. Temperatures at midnight are expected to dip to about 48 degrees, Boucher said.
“Looks like it’s going to be pretty quiet overall,” he said.
At the Vegas Weddings’ three locations, couples patiently waited their turn for a quick ceremony and ring-exchange. The couples who chose to be married by an Elvis impersonator were treated to vows full of song lyric puns and a serenade as their first dance. The company has said it expects to marry more than 120 couples on Sunday.
Jeff and Amanda McIntire traveled from Brenham, Texas, to get married on New Year’s Eve. Amanda McIntire said she was eager to get married, and had already legally changed her name, but a Facebook meme of the Sesame Street character Count von Count inspired her to select Sunday’s date for the ceremony. But more important than the date was having a casual celebration in Las Vegas.
“How can you go wrong with Elvis?” said Amanda McIntire, who got married in a bright red blazer by Elvis impersonator Ron DeCar.
DeCar, who used to own the Viva Las Vegas Chapel before he sold it to Vegas Weddings, said Sunday was a particularly busy day for him because of the date. By Sunday afternoon he made it to the Viva Las Vegas Wedding Chapel to officiate the marriage of Billy “Blade” Traughber, 47, and Karie “Tiffany Payne” Rockwood, 48.
The couple has been together for six years and frequently travels to Las Vegas for their entertainment jobs, said Traughber, who owns the wrestling company MicroMania. The two got into the back of DeCar’s pink Cadillac, which he drove into the wedding chapel as it filled with smoke from a fog machine, Elvis’ songs pumping through the speakers.
Rockwood said the unique New Year’s Eve date added to the fun.
“It’s also so he won’t ever forget,” she joked.
Yvan Devergranne, 32, and Samantha Castrejon, 28, weren’t initially thinking about Sunday’s date when they decided to get married in Las Vegas, but the couple figured they might as well aim for the best time possible. The two planned their outfits for weeks, and arrived at the Little White Wedding Chapel in fur coats over their white suit and dress.
“We’ve been obviously trying to plan it and look the best we can, and we’re obviously very excited for that,” Devergranne said.
Devergranne’s service dog, Xena, had white flowers attached to her collar as she watched their ceremony from the aisle. After their wedding, the couple planned to take in the view of the Bellagio fountains during the New Year’s Eve festivities.
Shannon Rogers, 51, and Ruby Hartman, 51, came to Las Vegas from Louisiana to fulfill Hartman’s dream of getting married by Elvis. Rogers first had a crush on Hartman when the two met in the third grade, but their lives diverged as the two married other people, had kids and went through divorces before reconnecting nine years ago. Hartman said the two sneaked off to Las Vegas without telling most of their friends.
“We got on a plane and said, ‘Let’s do it,’” she said.
Annamarie Popoca, 23, and Michelle Antonio, 21, said they wanted to take advantage of the New Year’s Eve celebration across the Strip after their wedding, which was officiated by the drag queen Elvis impersonator Martina “Sh-Elvis” Brookshire.
Popoca and Antonio met through the military while they were stationed together in Japan. The two have been living long distance for a year, and decided to get legally married in Las Vegas while they had the chance. They didn’t realize getting married by a drag queen was an option until they started planning the ceremony.
“It’s Vegas! We’re already gay,” Antonio said with a laugh. “It’s a once-in-a-lifetime experience, we might as well do it.”

Allegedly drunk skipper charged, more than 100 people evacuated after private boat crashes on the Gold Coast
By Gemma FergusonMore than 100 people had their New Year's Eve celebrations interrupted when an allegedly drunk skipper crashed the boat they were on into a sandbar on the Gold Coast.
Queensland Police Service (QPS) attended the Broadwater last night after the commercial vessel ran aground — there, they breath-tested and charged the man after he allegedly blew almost three times the legal limit.
"Police … charged that skipper with drink driving. We will be alleging that he went 0.149 and he'll be appearing in court," Superintendent Andrew Pilotto said.
"We had to get the Volunteer Marine Rescue and the water police boats to evacuate all those people [on-board] safely.
"That was quite a dangerous situation, following on from the tragedy we had in Moreton Bay just this week."
The skipper was one of just a handful of Gold Coast arrests overnight, while Brisbane saw seven arrests, with QPS praising the vast majority of celebrations for being "well-behaved [and] safe".
Superintendent Pilotto said festivities in the Gold Coast, Brisbane and Sunshine Coast were "heavily impacted by weather", with "unpredictability" around conditions seeing roughly 60,000 head out in the state's capital for New Year's Eve — QPS had planned for 100,000.
Loading...Police have continued targeting drink drivers today, with "a number of traffic operations" aimed at "people who've had big nights … and are likely to try and drink drive home at some point".
Superintendent Pilotto reminded the public it's possible to still blow over the limit "many, many hours after a big night out".
Safety, alcohol, drugs a focus for police
The importance of seatbelts is also at the forefront, after a 20-year-old Darling Downs woman died near Warwick after her ute left the road and crashed into a tree near the Donovan Road intersection, at about 10pm last night.
"Unfortunately police will be alleging that driver was not wearing a seatbelt, as they were ejected from the vehicle and killed," Assistant Commissioner for Road Safety Chris Stream said.
It comes after 277 lives were lost on Queensland roads over the course of 2023, including more than 70 motorbike riders which police say is "well-above the national average".
Riders are reminded to always wear the correct safety gear, including a helmet, and stick to the speed limit.
Loading...Assistant Commissioner Stream said almost 45,000 random breath tests (RBTs) have been conducted — and "620 idiots" charged — since the start of December as part of Operation Mistletoe, which will continue to target road users until the end of school holidays.
"I don't use that term lightly, it's extremely disappointing … that we are still having to detect and charge that many people on the road that are drink driving and menacing, placing the lives of their passengers and also other road users at risk," he said.
Police have also conducted almost 2,500 random drug tests, picking up 562 drug drivers, which Assistant Commissioner Stream said is also disappointing.
More than 20,000 hours of road policing has been dedicated to the operation so far.
QPS is asking the public to avoid driving "unless you absolutely have to be on the road", especially around Mount Tamborine and Jimboomba, as landslips and flooding are possible amid ongoing wet weather.
With more rain expected, Gold Coast Region Disaster Response coordinator Mark Ryan said the "threat is not over" yet. | https://www.abc.net.au/news/2024-01-01/new-years-eve-celebrations-broadwater-boat-drink-driving-skipper/103277110 | 2024-01-01T04:55:28Z |

Lung tumors hijack bacteria for survival: study
The study published on Thursday in the journal Cell showed that the altered bacterial population creates an inflammatory environment that helps the tumor cells to grow.
This research "opens up multiple potential avenues toward lung cancer interception and treatment," said the paper's senior author Tyler Jacks, director of Koch Institute for Integrative Cancer Research at Massachusetts Institute of Technology (MIT).
The researchers found those mice with lung cancer and raised in a sterile condition had smaller tumors than those raised under normal conditions.
Therefore, treating the mice with antibiotics or blocking the immune cells provoked by the bacteria can significantly reduce the size of tumors, according to the study.
A possible reason for the intensified bacterial activity is that tumors obstruct the airway and prevent bacteria from being cleared from the lungs.
The study showed that the bacterial expansion induced immune cells called gamma delta T cells to proliferate and begin secreting inflammatory molecules called cytokines. Those molecules create a pro-growth environment for the tumor cells.
Jin Chencheng, an MIT postdoc and the lead author of the paper, called it a "feed-forward loop" that forms a vicious cycle to further promote tumor growth.
The researchers found that when they treated the mice with antibiotics either two or seven weeks after the tumors began to grow, the tumors shrank by about 50 percent.
The tumors in mice also shrank if they were given drugs that block immune cells, according to the study. | https://en.inform.kz/amp/lung-tumors-hijack-bacteria-for-survival-study_a3493901/ | 2024-01-01T04:55:30Z |

Nurpur, January 31
The state Forest Department, through the Forest Division, Nurpur, has recovered a penalty of Rs 27,45,743 for illegal dumping of hill cutting waste material on the land under Forest Range, Kotla, from a four-laning construction company. A notice was served to the Project Director, National Highways Authority of India (NHAI), Palampur, in August for depositing the assessed penalty against the illegal dumping of muck in the forest areas of Soldha, Bhar, Trilokpur and Seuni near Kotla by the company engaged in four-laning of the Pathankot-Mandi highway from Seuni to Rajol.
Notice was served on NHAI project head
A notice was served on the Project Director, National Highways Authority of India (NHAI), Palampur, in August for depositing the assessed penalty against the illegal dumping of muck in the forest areas of Soldha, Bhar, Trilokpur and Seuni near Kotla by the company engaged in four-laning of the Pathankot-Mandi highway from Seuni to Rajol.
The construction company had to its disposal three designated dumping sites but due to enormous material extracted after roadside hill cutting, the company allegedly started dumping it in the forest area alongside the local rivulets. The department has also issued strict instructions to the NHAI construction company to build a crate wall adjoining the banks of local rivulets and water channels so that dumped muck may not be spilled into the water bodies.
Divisional Forest Officer (DFO), Nurpur, Amit Sharma told The Tribune that the department had conducted a drone survey and prepared a geo-referenced KML digital file (KML file is a format used to display geographic data). “The procured geo digital data was compared with the geo-referenced KML digital file prepared by the NHAI before procuring forest clearance under the Forest Conservative Act from the Central Environment and Forest Ministry. After comparing the data, the department found illegal muck dumping of 6,421 cubic meters at nine locations in the forest area under the Forest Range, Kotla,” he said.
The DFO said apart from paying the penalty to the state Forest Department, the construction company had also been directed to rehabilitate affected forest areas with fresh plantations in the next monsoon season.

80 displaced, 7 injured in Brooklyn apartment building fire on New Year's Eve
NEW YORK -- Firefighters battled a large fire at a Brooklyn apartment building Sunday night.
It happened just after 7 p.m. on Schenck Avenue near Wortman Avenue in East New York.
Fire officials say crews arrived to find fire in the courtyard of the building, where there were building materials and scaffolding. The fire spread inside the building and into about 12 apartments, some of which were unoccupied.
Some residents were told to shelter in place while others were told to evacuate.
Officials say seven people, including two children and two firefighters, were taken to a local hospital. All seven suffered minor smoke inhalation.
Some neighbors say they heard fireworks outside, then looked out to see the courtyard on fire, causing chaos and sending people running out of the building.
"I heard the fireworks, and right after the fireworks, I heard everybody and the commotion in the hallway," one resident said. "I panicked, grabbed my jacket and my bag. Luckily, I keep my handbag on my bed."
"I heard the boom, boom, boom, and when I came on out, back on the other side of the building, it's on fire. Like a bonfire. But I'm glad everybody is out, thank God," resident Susan Aeiken said.
Officials say 80 people have been displaced and were taken to a temporary shelter.
The cause of the fire is under investigation.

Raiders game-day schedule for Week 18 is finalized
INDIANAPOLIS — The Raiders will host the Broncos on Sunday at 1:25 pm at Allegiant Stadium, the NFL announced on Sunday.
The league’s schedule for Week 18 is typically finalized one week before kickoffs to maximize games that still have playoff implications.
The Raiders loss to the Colts on Sunday eliminated them from postseason contention. While the Broncos beat the Chargers on Sunday, their playoff hopes were vanquished by the Steelers’ win over the Seahawks. As a result, the season finale between the Raiders and Broncos is not among the highlight games of Week 18.

Majilis Speaker receives Austrian Ambassador
During the meeting, Nurlan Nigmatulin highlighted that Austria is Kazakhstan's strategically important partner. Besides, Kazakhstan attaches great importance to further strengthening of the interaction between Astana and Vienna. For 27 years of diplomatic relations, the countries have established a trust-based political dialogue and built deep trade and economic ties.
The Majilis Chairman underlined the official visits of President of Kazakhstan Nursultan Nazarbayev to Austria and Federal President of Austria Heinz Fischer to Kazakhstan laid a firm foundation for the development of comprehensive cooperation.
According to Nurmat Nigmatulin, alongside green technologies, tourism, and the cultural and humanitarian areas, interparliamentary cooperation is also one of the promising and crucial areas for deepening bilateral partnership.
The Majilis Speaker said that regular meetings of dedicated committees, cooperation groups will facilitate the exchange of best legislation practices.
The Austrian Ambassador pointed out that Kazakhstan is the leader in the region, and that there are good economic, cultural and humanitarian ties between the two countries. At the same time, Gerhard Sailler stressed that it was Kazakhstan which adopted such a document essential for the OSCE as the Astana Declaration during the organization's summit in 2010.
Speaking about a wide range of Kazakhstan-Austria relations, the ambassador expressed hope for further strengthening of inter-parliamentary cooperation. | https://en.inform.kz/amp/majilis-speaker-receives-austrian-ambassador_a3494015/ | 2024-01-01T04:55:37Z |
Ambika Sharma
Solan, December 31
The police have cautioned motorists using the one-way Barog bypass tunnel on the Kumarhatti-Solan section of the National Highway-5 for commuting towards Solan. Any violation would fetch a penalty of Rs 20,000.
Since Nov, 118 fined for driving wrong side
- As per Solan Additional SP Yogesh Rolta, CCTV-based intelligent traffic management system is being used by the police to issue challans to the offenders.
- As many as 118 challans have been issued for wrong-side driving through the Barog bypass tunnel at Shamlech since CCTVs were installed in mid-November.
The traffic police have installed CCTVs on both ends of the tunnel and are keeping an eye on the violators through its control room located at the old DC office building in Solan.
The one-way tunnel is meant for vehicles coming from Solan and Shimla and going towards Chandigarh. It has, however, been observed that tourists and motorists travelling from other places use this tunnel to travel to Solan from Kumarhatti and end up driving on the wrong side. This has become a cause for concern for the police. Motorists are at times seen driving at a high speed inside the tunnel on the wrong side. Such misadventures have proved fatal in the past.
“In view of the tourist influx for New Year, several motorists are seen using the one-way Barog bypass tunnel for driving towards Solan to save time, in violation of the norms. This callous behaviour can lead to fatal accidents and endanger the lives of other commuters,” Solan SP Gaurav Singh said.
“Such violators would be identified with the help of CCTVs installed on both ends of the tunnel and a penalty of Rs 20,000 would be imposed on them,” the SP said.
It was also observed that driving on the wrong side has become a common practice on the road leading to the tunnel from Kumarhatti. Many motorists use the bypass road from the MMU medical college to reach the highway.
In July, a girl was injured when the car she was travelling in collided head-on with a truck coming from the opposite side on this one-way tunnel. The collision took place as the truck was moving on the wrong side. Many such instances have come to fore in the past which prompted the police to install CCTVs on both sides of the tunnel.

"Evolved as most reliable, cost-effective one": Former ISRO Chairman lauds PSLV-C58 XPoSat Mission
Talking to ANI, Madhavan Nair said, "The new year 2024 will be a significant one as far as ISRO programmes are concerned. The 60th launch of PSLV will take place on this day. When we look back in history, we started this journey in 1993 and since then, most of the missions have been successfully completed. This rocket system has evolved as the most reliable and cost-effective one in the global scenario."
- Country:
- India
Lauding the launch of the PSLV-C58/XPOSAT mission which is scheduled for Monday, former ISRO Chairman G Madhavan Nair on Sunday said that this rocket system has evolved as the most reliable and cost-effective one in the global scenario. The mission is scheduled at 09:10 IST on Monday, the first day of the new calendar year 2024, at Satish Dhawan Space Centre in Sriharikota.
Talking to ANI, Madhavan Nair said, "The new year 2024 will be a significant one as far as ISRO programmes are concerned. The 60th launch of PSLV will take place on this day. When we look back in history, we started this journey in 1993 and since then, most of the missions have been successfully completed. This rocket system has evolved as the most reliable and cost-effective one in the global scenario." The former ISRO Chairman also congratulated the ISRO for the achievement of the Chandrayaan-3 and Aditya L1 missions.
"On this occasion, I congratulate ISRO for the fantastic achievements it has achieved in 2023, including the significant Chandrayaan-3 mission on the South Pole of the Moon, the Aditya L1 mission and the commercial launch competing against the Space X competition," Nair said. XPoSat (X-ray Polarimeter Satellite) is the first dedicated scientific satellite from ISRO to carry out research in space-based polarisation measurements of X-ray emission from celestial sources.
The objectives of this to-be-launched mission are to measure the polarisation of X-rays in the energy band 8-30 keV emanating from about 50 potential cosmic sources through Thomson Scattering by the POLIX payload; to carry out long-term spectral and temporal studies of cosmic X-ray sources in the energy band 0.8-15keV by the XSPECT payload; and to carry out polarisation and spectroscopic measurements of X-ray emissions from cosmic sources by the POLIX and XSPECT payloads, respectively, in the common energy band. The module houses 10 identified payloads, supplied by ISRO and IN-SPACe.
The scientific goals of the mission are to study the distribution of magnetic field, geometric anisotropies, alignment with respect to the line of sight, nature of accelerators in galactic cosmic X-Ray sources by measuring the degree of polarisation and its angle, structure and geometry of magnetic field of neutron stars, mechanism of X-Ray beaming and its relation with luminosity and mass of accretion rate of powered pulsars, and detailed understanding of galactic black hole binary sources, among others. In a stellar display of prowess, India soared to new heights in 2023 with the successful soft landing of Chandrayaan-3 on the south pole of the moon and the launch of Aditya-L1, India's first solar mission.
These milestones not only secured India's standing in the global space economy but also fueled the engines for the private space sector in India. (ANI)

Violent carjackings and crime have skyrocketed in Washington DC, thanks to Democrat policies
Carjackings in the nation’s capital are up 111% in the first ten months of 2023.
An off-duty police officer from Maryland was carjacked in DC while helping family members into their vehicle on Thursday in the Oxon Hill area across the street from a large shopping mall.
As the carjackers were trying to force the family out of the vehicle, the officer fired his weapon at the suspects and sent them fleeing.
An armed, off-duty Maryland police officer sent two suspected carjackers fleeing when he fired his weapon as they forced his family out of a vehicle near a large shopping mall outside of Washington, D.C., police say.
“Continue to remain diligent. Be aware of your surroundings,” Prince George Assistant Chief Vernon Hale III said during a press conference last week. “As you can see, if this can happen to an off-duty officer, it can certainly happen to a family. So, we want to make sure that everybody remains diligent, take care of one another, and keep your eyes open.”
Hale said an unidentified off-duty police officer with the department was assisting two of his family members as they got into their personal vehicle at about 5 p.m. Thursday in Oxon Hill when they were approached by at least two suspects, Fox 5 DC reported. The family was in a parking lot that serves office buildings, including dental and medical offices, and is located across the street from the Tanger Outlets National Harbor shopping center.
One of the suspects was arrested and identified as Anthony Stewart, 19, a resident of DC. The second suspect has not been identified at this time.

The family was left unharmed, and police say that it appears the carjackers were not hit with any shots.
Stewart was charged with carjacking, theft, robbery, and potentially other charges.
Watch:
No one is safe in Washington DC these days including political leaders.

Henry Cuellar was carjacked by three armed attackers near the U.S. Capitol.” Fox News reported. | https://www.thegatewaypundit.com/2023/12/armed-duty-cop-thwarts-carjackers-dc-sends-them/ | 2024-01-01T04:55:39Z |

Shimla, December 31
Thousands of tourists thronged Shimla to ring in the New Year on Sunday. As tourist vehicles kept entering the city till late evening, police personnel were on their toes throughout.
As per police record, more than 25,000 vehicles entered and exited the capital city from Solan side on Sunday. In the past two weeks, more than 2.25 lakh vehicles have entered and left the city. Thousands of tourists, who reached the Mall Road and The Ridge during evening hours, were seen enjoying the Winter Carnival.
In order to manage the traffic movement, the district police have been halting vehicles coming from Solan side to Shimla at the Shoghi barrier for a
few minutes. The traffic plan worked well as city did not get choked despite heavy rush, claimed the police authorities.
Superintendent of Police Sanjeev Gandhi said, “We have been managing traffic movement in and out of the city in a regulated manner. It’s based on mathematical calculations. Considering the increased number of tourist vehicles entering Shimla for Christmas and New Year celebrations as per the existing road network and available parking capacity (4,500 vehicles), we are halting vehicles for some time near the Shoghi barrier and then releasing them in a regulated manner. It would be absolute chaos if we let all vehicles pass at one go. The ‘one minute traffic plan’ (halt and release vehicles) is based on the principle of linear equation.”
Gandhi added, “At thirteen bottlenecks, where a multiple dimension vehicular flow is being managed, like the Victory Tunnel, the capacity of disposal of vehicular flow is 35 to 40 vehicles per minute whereas the arrival of vehicles on these points is more than 55 to 60 vehicles per minute. So to equalise this number, Shimla police regulates traffic on the rotation of one minute on temporary hold barriers which are 10 to 15 km outside the city. This regulation has resulted in curbing congestion on city roads and reduction in road accidents.”
Grand finale to winter carnival
- On the last day of the Shimla Winter Carnival, cultural troupes from Chamba, Shimla, Kullu and Sirmaur districts enthralled tourists with their performances
- The Naag cultural group from Chamba performed Gaddi dance. Artistes also performed Kullavi nati. Punjab’s NZCC, Patiala, members performed bhangra
- A cultural parade with traditional musical instruments was also held
Students perform at Gaiety theatre
- Students from various colleges presented plays under Him Yuva Rang Mahotsav at Gaiety Theatre
- Students of Government Girls College, Shimla, presented play ‘Muqaddar ka Sikandar’
- Students of Government College, Mandi, staged ‘Charumitra’
- Government College, Karsog, students presented ‘Fallen Angels’ and college students of Seema Rohru presented ‘Hamlet’
Influx of vehicles
- As per police record, more than 25,000 vehicles entered and exited the capital city from Solan side on Sunday.
- In the past two weeks, over 2.25 lakh vehicles have entered and left the city.

Kerala: People throng Sabarimala temple on New Year Eve
As the nation is steeped in New Year celebrations, people in Kerala's Pathanamthitta thronged the Sabarimala temple on the last day of the year.
- Country:
- India
As the nation is steeped in New Year celebrations, people in Kerala's Pathanamthitta thronged the Sabarimala temple on the last day of the year. Visuals showed people standing in queues to seek the blessings of Lord Ayappan, whom the temple is dedicated to.
Earlier today, tourists on Sunday thronged Velankanni Church in Tamil Nadu's Nagapattinam and the adjacent beach here with their families ahead of the New Year. The Holy Mother of Health Church is located at Velankanni in Nagapattinam. The church is a spiritual place where people of all religions worship as a symbol of religious harmony.
Meanwhile, people performed the year's last 'Aarti' at Ganga Ghat in Uttarakhand's Rishikesh. Visuals showed people gathered at the Ghat participating in the grand 'Aarti'. Some foreigners were also seen grooving with enthusiasm as the priests were performing the rituals and the crowd was doing 'Aarti' with fervour.
"The dream of the crores of Hindus is going to be fulfilled this year as we are set to witness the Ram Temple's consecration ceremony. This is going to be a moment of delight for every Indian. It will be an incredible day. This year has taught us so many things. On the occasion of the new year, everyone should pledge to take steps for environment conservation," said Swami Chidanand Muni, Priest while speaking to ANI. Meanwhile, a grand 'Aarti' was performed at the Ganga Ghat in Uttar Pradesh's Prayagraj.
Priests were seen playing instruments as the devotees were engrossed in prayers with folded hands. (ANI)

Met: Snowfalls and blizzards to make comeback in February
13:12, 06 February 2019
ASTANA. KAZINFORM - Meteorologists predict that arctic air masses which caused bitter frost across Kazakhstan will subside, Kazinform has learnt from Kazhydromet.
They will give way to atmospheric fronts which will grip western Kazakhstan.
Abnormally cold weather will persist for a couple of days in most regions of the country. However, atmospheric fronts will bring snowfalls, blizzards, gusty western wind, and warmer temperatures. | https://en.inform.kz/amp/met-snowfalls-and-blizzards-to-make-comeback-in-february_a3495425/ | 2024-01-01T04:55:58Z |
Subhash Rajta
Shimla, December 31
Rampant orchard fires have left the upper Shimla area under a thick cover of smoke. As the apple growers are burning orchard waste like twigs and leaves, thick plumes of smoke can be seen rising from every nook and corner of the apple belt.
Warning fails to yield results
- The surge in the number of fires has come despite the orders from the Rohru SDM that the growers found burning their orchard waste would be penalised under Section 133 of the Criminal Procedure Code
- Progressive growers feel these fires will adversely affect the micro climate of the area and apple production as the temperature will rise, which will make it tough to get the required chilling hours for apple trees
Even as the burning of waste is an annual affair, the situation this time seems to be more serious. “Despite the efforts to dissuade apple growers from burning orchard waste, the fires this time appears to have increased. The situation is similar to what it is in Punjab and Haryana at the time of stubble burning,” said Sanjeev Thakur, president of the Chuwara Apple Valley Society, Chirgaon. “The visibility has dropped significantly due to the thick veil of smoke. We can’t see beyond a few hundred metres now,” he said.
Can’t issue notice to every grower
It’s not possible to issue notice to each and every grower as the number is very high. So, we are also focusing on raising awareness against this practice and the adverse impact it will have on our environment and health. Sunny Sharma, Rohru SDM
The surge in the number of fires has come despite the orders from the Rohru SDM that the growers found burning their orchard waste would be penalised under Section 133 of the Criminal Procedure Code.
“We have already issued notices to growers who set their orchard waste on fire. They have apologised and have given an undertaking in writing that they wouldn’t do it again,” said Sunny Sharma, SDM, Rohru. “However, it’s not possible to issue notice to each and every grower as the number is very large. So, we are also focusing on raising awareness against this practice and adverse impact it would have on our environment and health,” said Sharma, adding that forest fires have worsened the situation.
Meanwhile, progressive growers feel these fires will adversely affect the micro climate of the area and apple production. “Due to these fires, the temperature will rise, which will make it tough to get the required chilling hours for apple trees,” said Lokinder Bisht, president of the Progressive Growers Association.
With awareness drives not yielding the desired results, growers feel that the government and Horticulture Department should offer subsidy on shredding machine. “If the shredder is subsidised, it may encourage the growers to turn waste into manure by composting it,” said Thakur.

Key initiative of Department of Social Justice and Empowerment- 2023
There were Key initiatives and achievements of the Department of Social Justice and Empowerment under the Union Ministry of Social Justice and Empowerment in the year 2023. Some of them are Pre-Matric and Post-Matric scholarship schemes for SC students, the Scholarships for Higher Education for Young Achievers Scheme (SHREYAS) for SCs, and the National Overseas Scholarship for SCs.

There were Key initiatives and achievements of the Department of Social Justice and Empowerment under the Union Ministry of Social Justice and Empowerment in the year 2023. Some of them are Pre-Matric and Post-Matric scholarship schemes for SC students, the Scholarships for Higher Education for Young Achievers Scheme (SHREYAS) for SCs, and the National Overseas Scholarship for SCs. According to a press statement from the Ministry of Social Justice & Empowerment, the Department of Social Justice and Empowerment with an objective of appreciably increasing the Gross Enrolment Ratio of SC students in higher education, with a focus on those from the poorest households, has been implementing a Centrally Sponsored Scheme "Post-Matric Scholarships to the students belonging to Scheduled Castes for studies in India".
DoSJE introduced the Centrally Sponsored Scheme of Pre-Matric Scholarship for SC students and others which aims to support, through financial assistance, parents of children belonging to Schedules Caste and other disadvantaged categories for education of their wards studying at the pre-matric stage. Achievements under the schemes:
During the year 2023 to till date (22.12.2023), a total of 34,58,538 SC beneficiaries have been released scholarships amounting to Rs. 3546.34 Cr under the Post-Matric scholarship scheme for SC students. During the year 2023 to till date (22.12.2023), a total of 18,32,628 beneficiaries have been released scholarship amounting to Rs. 369.03 Cr under Pre-Matric Scholarship scheme for SC students.
Aadhaar-based payment system is being utilized to ensure that the scholarship funds are received by the student through DBT directly into his/her aadhaar seeded account. Some of the States/ UTs viz. Tamil Nadu, Karnataka have automated the process of receipt and processing of applications by digitalization of certificates and auto-fetching of eligibility data to ensure minimum manual intervention and increased transparency.
Seven States/UTs viz. Assam, Chandigarh, Gujarat, Himachal Pradesh, Jharkhand, Karnataka and Odisha have covered more beneficiaries as against their annual targets under Post Matric SC scheme for the year 2022-23. Under Component-II of the Pre-matric Scheme which deals with children whose parents are engaged in cleaning and hazardous occupations, the number of participating States has increased from one in 2022 to nine in 2023 to provide scholarships to disadvantaged students.
The Department conceptualized an Umbrella scheme namely 'Scholarship for Higher Education for Young Achievers Scheme (SHREYAS)' to ensure the convergence of resources across the four smaller Central Sector Schemes of the Department catering to SC/OBC students desirous of pursuing higher education (in India and abroad) and/or obtaining employment in Group A/Group B services of centre or State Governments. National Overseas Scholarship for SCs:
Under the NOS Scheme financial assistance is provided to the selected students from SCs (115 slots); De-notified, Nomadic and Semi-Nomadic Tribes (6 slots); landless agricultural labourers and traditional artisan categories ( 4 slots), for pursuing masters and Ph.G. level courses abroad. Presently, 125 slots are allotted under the scheme. 107 students have been awarded scholarships out of 125 for the S.Y. 2023-24 to date, said the ministry. The department has been implementing Scheme for Residential Education for Students in High Schools in Targeted Areas (SHRESHTA) to enhance the reach of development Intervention in the Government and to fill the gap in service-deficient SCs dominant areas, in the sector of education through the efforts of grant-in-aid institutions (run by NGOs) and residential high schools offering high quality education and to provide an environment for socio-economic upliftment and overall development of the Scheduled Castes (SCs).
The scheme is being implemented in two modes. In mode-I, each year a specified number (3000) of meritorious SC students in States/UTs are selected through the National Entrance Test for SHRESHTA (NETS) conducted by the National Testing Agency (NTA) and admitted to the best private residential schools affiliated by CBSE/State Boards in classes 9th and 1lth. In mode-2, financial assistance is provided to the NGOs for running the schools/hostel projects related to Education sector to Scheduled Caste students. The Scheme broadly covers 3 types of projects namely (i) Residential Schools (ii) Non- Residential Schools and (iii) Hostels, both for Primary and Secondary Students. (ANI)

Shimla, December 31
Chief Minister Sukhvinder Singh Sukhu said the state government would offer quality horticulture equipment, fertilisers and pesticides at affordable rates through Himachal Pradesh Horticulture Produce Marketing and Processing Corporation (HPMC) from January 1.
To modify existing schemes
- Chief Minister said his government was aiming to increase the income of horticulturists in the state. The Horticulture Department would suitably modify the existing schemes and make them more effective through appropriate restructuring
- He said the government made provisions in its first budget for establishing an online system to facilitate procurement of horticulture produce at minimum support price by the HPMC
- Sukhu assured the growers of introducing universal cartons to streamline the sale of apples in the upcoming season
Emphasising the government's commitment, he said the HPMC had reduced its profit margin from 15 per cent to 9 per cent, enabling apple growers to access quality products at more economical prices.
Furthermore, the HPMC has inked 38 memorandums of understanding (MoUs) for direct purchases from original manufacturing companies, striving to offer farmers vital items at low rates. “Our government is committed to supporting apple growers and the decision to reduce margins reflects our dedication to uplifting the horticultural community and enhancing the economic wellbeing of apple growers in Himachal as our top priority,” he said.
He said his government was aiming to increase the income of the horticulturists in the state. The Horticulture Department would suitably modify the existing schemes and make them more effective through appropriate restructuring, he added.
He said the government made provisions in its first budget for an online system to be established to facilitate procurement of horticulture produce at minimum support price by the HPMC. “This online facility will also be available for booking the CA stores of the HPMC. Apart from the sale of produce from home, the farmers will also be able to book farm equipment and materials sold by HPMC,” he said.
He further said that grading/packing houses, CA and cold stores would be set up in association with FPOs in Bhavanagar in Kinnaur, Sandasu near Chirgaon, Anu in Jubbal, Chopal in Shimla, Jabli of Solan district, Sundernagar in Mandi, Duttnagar near Rampur Bushehar and Kharapathar in Shimla.
Looking ahead, he assured the growers that the sale of apple in the upcoming season would be streamlined into universal cartons.

The resignation from the House by former Speaker Kevin McCarthy (R-CA) took effect Sunday, leaving Republicans with a razor-thin majority of 220-213 over the Democrats following the expulsion of George Santos (R-NY) earlier in December.
McCarthy gave a farewell speech on the House floor on December 14.
McCarthy’s letter of resignation to Gov. Gavin Newsom (D-CA):
Ex-Speaker Kevin McCarthy's resignation from Congress is effective today.
US House now has 220 Republicans and 213 Democrats, with vacancies in #CA20 (McCarthy) and #NY03 (Santos) pic.twitter.com/28xzo7ByCI
— Greg Giroux (@greggiroux) December 31, 2023
Video of McCarthy’s farewell address to Congress:
McCarthy, 58, served as Speaker of the House for nine months, having been voted out on October 3rd on passage of a motion to vacate filed by Rep. Matt Gaetz (R-FL) that passed 216-210 with eight Republicans joining all Democrats.
CBS News reported on Gaetz’s comments about the vote (excerpt):
“The reason Kevin McCarthy went down today is because nobody trusts Kevin McCarthy,” Rep. Matt Gaetz of Florida told reporters after the vote. “Kevin McCarthy has made multiple contradictory promises, and when they all came due, he lost votes of people who maybe don’t even ideologically agree with me on everything.”
“This represents the ripping off of the Band-Aid and that’s what we need to do to get back on track,” the Florida Republican added.
Along with Gaetz, seven Republican members voted to oust McCarthy: Reps. Andy Biggs of Arizona, Ken Buck of Colorado, Tim Burchett of Tennessee, Eli Crane of Arizona, Bob Good of Virginia, Nancy Mace of South Carolina and Matt Rosendale of Montana.
A day earlier, Gaetz accused McCarthy of making a “secret side deal” with President Biden on Ukraine aid to get a short-term funding bill passed hours before the government was set to shutdown. The California Republican denied having made any deal in exchange for Democratic votes.
The beginning of the end for McCarthy started in the spring when he threw away a winning hand on budget deficit negotiations with Joe Biden and the Democrats for next to nothing in return, giving Biden unlimited borrowing power for the final two years of his term in office.
A majority of the American people supported the Republican position to reduce spending instead of the Democrats’ position of an unlimited debt ceiling. Yet, McCarthy gave the Democrats unlimited deficit spending.
19% think the debt limit should be increased without conditions, while 63% want terms on reducing the federal budget deficit included. https://t.co/yzHSm0dkDh pic.twitter.com/0mbCjfAWb9
— AP-NORC Center (@APNORC) May 19, 2023
McCarthy’s end came after he jammed conservatives in the House with a last-minute 45-day budget deal passed with Democrat support to keep the government open at the end of September.
McCarthy was first elected to the House in 2007. As Speaker, he reopened the Capitol to the public after former Speaker Nancy Pelosi (D-CA) had closed it due to the pandemic. McCarthy also did away with proxy voting and the metal detectors at the doors to the House floor instituted by Pelosi.
McCarthy announced his resignation on December 6 in a Wall Street Journal op-ed (excerpt):
I’m an optimist. How could I not be? I’m the son of a firefighter. For 17 years I’ve served in the same congressional seat—the same office in which I was once denied an internship. Only in America.
I helped lead Republicans to a House majority—twice. We got more Republican women, veterans and minorities elected to Congress at one time than ever before. I remained cheerfully persistent when elected speaker because I knew what we could accomplish.
Even with slim margins in the House, we passed legislation to secure the border, achieve energy independence, reduce crime, hold government accountable and establish a Parents’ Bill of Rights. We did exactly what we said we would do.
We kept our eyes on America’s long-term global challenges by restoring the Intelligence Committee to its original charter and establishing a bipartisan Select Committee on the Chinese Communist Party.
…It is in this spirit that I have decided to depart the House at the end of this year to serve America in new ways. I know my work is only getting started.
I will continue to recruit our country’s best and brightest to run for elected office. The Republican Party is expanding every day, and I am committed to lending my experience to support the next generation of leaders. | https://www.thegatewaypundit.com/2023/12/former-speaker-kevin-mccarthys-resignation-house-effective-today/ | 2024-01-01T04:56:09Z |

Patna, January 1
Bihar Chief Minister Nitish Kumar owns assets worth Rs 1.64 crore, according to his latest public disclosure.
According to details of the assets of the chief minister and his cabinet colleagues posted on the Cabinet Secretariat Department's website on Sunday evening, Kumar has Rs 22,552 in cash, and deposits of Rs 49,202 in different bank accounts.
He also has a Ford Ecosport car worth Rs 11.32 lakh, two gold rings and a silver ring worth Rs 1.28 lakh, and other movable assets such as 13 cows and 10 calves worth Rs 1.45 lakh, a treadmill, an exercise cycle and a microwave oven.
The only immovable property that he has is an apartment in Dwarka in New Delhi, which cost him Rs 13.78 lakh in 2004, and is now worth Rs 1.48 crore.
Last year, Kumar had declared total assets of Rs 75.53 lakh. A comparison of the two disclosures showed that the jump in the value of assets was primarily due to the rise in the worth of his Delhi apartment.
Kumar's government has made it mandatory for all cabinet ministers to disclose their assets and liabilities on the last day of every calendar year.
Deputy Chief Minister Tejashwi Prasad Yadav declared a total income of Rs 4.74 lakh for the 2022-23 financial year. His elder brother Tej Pratap, who is also a minister in the state government, has assets worth Rs 3.58 crore.

I would like to specify the following: although the CIS Ministerial Council meeting will be held in Moscow, it will be chaired by Turkmenistan," Sergei Lebedev said.
The draft agenda of the CIS Ministerial Council meeting includes issues related to intergovernmental relations in basic research, maintenance and upkeep of war cemeteries and monuments of the Great Patriotic War, development of ministerial cooperation, ties in the humanitarian field and fight against crime.
"Coordination of CIS positions in international organizations is traditionally one of the main issues. Everyone knows that important issues are considered within the framework of the UN, OSCE, and other international organizations. We want the CIS states to speak with one voice and
support each other. I believe we will discuss all those issues during the CIS Ministerial Council meeting as we did it before," Sergei Lavrov said.
He also noted that the CIS Ministerial Council will convene for the next meeting in Ashgabat on 10 October, Kazinform has learnt from BelTA. | https://en.inform.kz/amp/moscow-to-host-cis-ministerial-council-meeting-on-apr-5_a3492887/ | 2024-01-01T04:56:18Z |

In two separate incidents, the customs department of Chaudhary Charan Singh Airport here arrested two passengers trying to smuggle 3.497 kg of gold, marking the biggest haul of the year 2023, according to officials at the Lucknow airport.

N. Korea renews demand for sanctions relief before 2nd summit with U.S.
"Improvement in relations and sanctions cannot go side by side," the Rodong Sinmun, the organ of the North's ruling party, said in a commentary.
"If the basis of improvement in relations is respect and trust, then it can be said that the basis of sanctions is hostility and confrontation," it added.
The paper blamed Washington's adherence to its policy of no sanctions relief until the North's denuclearization for causing an almost half-year stalemate in talks between the two countries, saying sanctions would not produce their intended results no matter how long they remain in place.
"Without outside support and help from anybody, our country can move forward with our own power and efforts," the paper said.
It still emphasized Pyongyang's commitment to building lasting and solid peace on the Korean Peninsula by establishing "new relations" with the United States.
The demand marked the latest in a string of calls by the North's media for easing sanctions ahead of a second summit slated for late February between Kim and Trump.
Little progress has been made in denuclearization talks as Pyongyang wants "corresponding" sanctions relief in exchange for steps it has taken since their June summit, while Washington demands more concrete measures.
Separately, North Korea and China could expand economic cooperation this year on the occasion of the 70th anniversary of the establishment of their diplomatic relations, said Choi Jang-ho and Rhee Jung-kyun, both analysts at the Korea Institute for International Economic Policy.
The analysts said China's economic cooperation with North Korea is essential as China is seeking to develop its northeastern areas near their border.
China's northeastern areas could be a logistics hub in case sanctions on North Korea are either eased or lifted, Choi and Rhee said in a paper carried in the Review of the North Korean Economy published by the state-run Korea Development Institute, citing other analysts.
China is North Korea's most important trading partner and a key source of food and fuel, giving Beijing significant leverage over Pyongyang. | https://en.inform.kz/amp/n-korea-renews-demand-for-sanctions-relief-before-2nd-summit-with-u-s_a3493399/ | 2024-01-01T04:56:32Z |
Dimapur, December 31
Three Naga groups have come together and decided to pursue negotiations for a solution to the decades-old Naga political issue with the Centre jointly.
The decision was taken on Saturday during a meeting attended by leaders of the National Socialist Council of Nagaland (NSCN) led by Akato Chophy, NSCN led by Khango and Z Royim-led Naga National Council (NNC). All three are splinter groups. The pro-talks faction of the United Liberation Front of Asom (ULFA) on Friday signed a peace accord with the Centre and Assam Government.
Joint effort
We have made separate approaches in the past but now we will make a joint effort on the Naga issue. Akato Chophy, NSCN leader
“The three groups have come together to have a joint political venture in 2024,” said Akato, while addressing journalists after the meeting here in the presence of leaders of the other two groups.
Asked if they have already approached the Centre with their decision to hold a dialogue, he said, “We have made separate approaches in the past but now we will make a joint effort on the Naga issue.” Akato also affirmed that they would be holding a dialogue separate from the negotiations being held by the working committee of the Naga National Political Groups (NNPGs) with the Centre.
The NNPG is composed of only seven groups while other Naga groups have been left out, he said, announcing that the three groups welcome like-minded organisations to join them for the cause of the Nagas.
Stating that there was no nomenclature for the three groups who have come together, Akato said they would approach the Centre for political talks.
The Nagaland insurgency is the longest-running conflict in the country. The Centre has been holding separate negotiations with NSCN-IM since 1997 and the NNPGs since 2017.
The NSCN-IM has remained adamant on its demand for a separate flag and constitution for the Nagas as well as integration of Naga-inhabited areas spread over four states of India — Arunachal Pradesh, Assam, Manipur and Nagaland, and also Myanmar.
On the other hand, the working committee of the NNPGs has expressed its willingness to accept whatever is granted for now and continue with the talks.
Nonetheless, as of now, there is no significant development in the political negotiations between Centre and the Naga groups.

Some Nutramigen infant formula recalled due to possible bacteria contamination
(CNN) - Some powdered baby formula is being pulled from the shelves due to contamination issues.

Stephen Boyle says living on Dangar Island, on the Hawkesbury River, is a bit like Gertrude Stein’s famous adage about Majorca. “It’s paradise - if you can stand it.”
And now there is trouble in paradise. A Hornsby Shire Council decision to change about 70 parking spots in Brooklyn, on the mainland, from unlimited to a time limit of four hours caused mayhem for river residents who need to leave their vehicles there and boat over to their homes. Like other river hamlets, Dangar Island has no cars.
At a December 13 meeting, following a concerted campaign by those affected, councillors partially reversed course, agreeing to halve the number of time-limited spaces to 35. Boyle, president of the Dangar Island League community group, describes it as a “stay of execution”.
But the core problem, a lack of parking in Brooklyn at busy times, remains, while the debate has divided river residents from their mainland counterparts, who by and large supported the change.
“What you have achieved is to divide what was a harmonious community between the Brooklyn agitators and everyone else,” Stephen Bruggeman of the Brooklyn Mooring Cooperative told the meeting. “It’s such a shame what you’ve done to that amazing little community we had there.”
About 700 people live in Brooklyn and 300 on Dangar Island, with another 200 or so scattered around the river in hamlets such as Little Wobby. Though beautiful, island life is not for everyone. Shopping typically means taking your boat or the ferry to Brooklyn, then driving half an hour to Hornsby. The train comes once an hour.
If river residents can’t find a parking space near the wharf, they’re usually forced up a steep hill towards Upper McKell Park. If they have heavy groceries, they’ll drop the bags at the wharf while they look for parking. That has created its own issues: brush turkeys have been pilfering people’s unattended groceries.
Stephen Cribb from Little Wobby calls the hilltop carpark “the moon” because “it’s so far from the river you might as well be on the moon”. While it is, in fact, only 200 or so metres, the hill is steep, and the area is poorly lit at night.
“We have had shift workers trudging in the dark after very long shifts in very unsafe conditions,” Dangar Island’s Henry Innis told the December council meeting.
Innis’ speech was warmly received by the river residents who packed the council chambers that night, prompting Liberal mayor Philip Ruddock to issue a stern warning against clapping.
“Let me be very clear,” Ruddock said. “These meetings are orderly. We do not encourage applause, and I will clear the gallery if it continues.”
Advocates for restricted parking said the limited resources needed to be shared. While Brooklyn is usually sleepy during the week, on weekends and school holidays it teems with locals and visitors looking to fish, camp or get out on the water.
The lone councillor to oppose the policy backflip, Liberal Nathan Tilbury, said some river residents occupied the untimed spaces with their cars and trailers for days, weeks or even longer, squeezing out other users. “This is not car parking, this is car storage,” he said.
Brooklyn Community Association president Cindy Corkery begged councillors to “resist being swayed” by the river residents’ passionate pleas. “We do appreciate that some of our neighbours face hardships,” she said. “Please know, we hear you. However, we also hear the families who want safe access to the recreational opportunities and to our businesses.”
Hornsby Shire Council is working on a place plan for Brooklyn which will investigate longer-term solutions to parking woes. But Ruddock told the river residents he did not think the council would attain any funding from the state government “in the present political environment”.
He said he was disappointed river and mainland residents hadn’t been able to come up with a solution among themselves without the council getting involved.
“The only reason we came to have a council position was because of the failure to be able to achieve that outcome,” Ruddock said. “I would encourage you all to continue to talk to each other because this situation is only going to be able to be addressed when there is a degree of unity.”
Is that possible? Boyle, the Dangar Island community leader, thanked councillors for the partial backflip and says river dwellers know they must contribute to a long-term fix. But Cribb, from Little Wobby, had his doubts.
“Unfortunately, Brooklyn is being loved to death,” he said. “All the river people have just had their lives diminished. People are saying they have to leave. This is the straw that broke the camel’s back.”

Border Patrol agents in the Tucson sector are seeing an increase in illegal aliens from the African state of Guinea using falsified passports to alter their age. Many of them are claiming to be minors to increase their chances of crossing the border.
The border patrol is now examining the passports with more scrutiny to see if they are fake or altered in some way.
With the Biden regime’s open invitation to come into the U.S., it would hardly seem to make a difference anyway.
Border Agents in the Tucson, Arizona sector are seeing an influx of immigrants from Guinea using fake passports to claim they are minors when entering the United States illegally, according to an internal alert obtained by Fox News.
The illegal immigrants are changing their ages and pretending to be unaccompanied minors so they’ll have a better chance of getting into the U.S.
The Border Patrol notice advises agents on what to look out for, and provides examples of real and fake Guinean passports. It warns that passports issued in the municipality of Conakry, Guinea’s capital, after June 2023 are “most likely fraudulent or altered.”
The Border Patrol agents were also informed that the government of Guinea may be playing a role in the falsification of the passports.
“Another migrant, according to Border Patrol, noted that an ‘illicit group’ stole many blank passport books from the ministry in Conakry and “has been selling and issuing the passports without the proper procedures.” Fox News reported.
The southern border has had massive numbers of illegals crossing into the U.S. from African countries such as Guinea and Congo. TGP reported earlier this month of many crossing into the U.S. to their destination cities.
Biden’s border crisis is getting worse by the day. Mass numbers of illegals are pouring into the United States daily.
“Massive numbers of adult men from around the world mixed in with families from Mexico and Ecuador. This is daily here,” Fox News reporter Bill Melugin said.
Some of these illegals are from Guinea in western Africa.

New Delhi, December 31
The government has constituted the 16th Finance Commission with former NITI Aayog vice-chairman Arvind Panagariya as its chairman. Ritvik Ranjanam Pandey, a 1998-batch IAS officer from the Karnataka cadre, has been appointed as the secretary. Other members of the commission would be notified separately, said an official news release.
First vice-chairman of NITI Aayog
Arvind Panagariya was the first vice-chairman of NITI Aayog after PM Modi came to power in 2014. Mentored by free-market votary Jagdish Bhagwati, Panagariya has done stints at the World Bank and allied institutions
Panagariya was the first vice-chairman of NITI Aayog after PM Narendra Modi came to power in 2014. Mentored by free-market votary Jagdish Bhagwati, Panagariya has done stints at the World Bank and its allied institutions. He currently teaches at Columbia University whose economics teaching faculty once had Milton Friedman, Joseph Stiglitz and Bhagwati. The commission is expected to make its report available by October 31, 2025, covering a period of five years from April 1, 2026.
The Finance Commission is a constitutional body set up every five years and is responsible for giving non-binding recommendations on the allocation of certain revenue resources between the Centre and the state governments. It also defines the financial relations between the Centre and the states. A notification issued on Sunday spelt out three main terms of reference for the Finance Commission. The first is the distribution between the Union and the states of the net proceeds of taxes and the allocation between the states of their respective shares of such proceeds.
Second, it should recommend the principles which should govern the grants-in-aid of the revenues of the states out of the Consolidated Fund of India and the sums to be paid to the states by grants-in-aid of their revenues.
And, finally the measures needed to augment the Consolidated Fund of a state to supplement the resources of the panchayats and municipalities on the basis of the recommendations made by state Finance Commissions.

Port Harcourt Refinery commences test-run, set to supply rivers, 11 other locations soon
The Nigerian National Petroleum Company Limited (NNPCL) has commenced supplying crude oil for the test-running of the Port Harcourt Refining Company Limited.
The plant will produce petrol and other products, benefiting 12 states.
Experts suggest the Port Harcourt and Dangote refineries could reduce refined product costs but may not cause a drastic price drop.

This decline persisted over the years due to factors like exchange rate complexities.
Experts urge Nigeria to focus on intra-Africa trade to bolster FDI inflows and address investment dispute settlements.

How Aussies have entered the new year $30,000 poorer - but one group is set to be better off
- Certain apprenticeships are about to become more lucrative
- READ MORE: All the changes in Australia from January 1, 2024
Everyday Aussies have entered the new year up to $30,000 poorer due to a rampant cost-of-living crisis.
But the Albanese government has today announced a new package to alleviate pressures on one group of people - new 'priority' apprentices and trainees.
People entering the workforce in a select 19 industries may be eligible for an additional $10,000 over the duration of the apprenticeship in an attempt to boost numbers in crucial industries.
Ambulance officers, furniture makers, pharmacy technicians and nursing support workers are the big winners out of the commitment, announced by Skills and Training Minister Brendan O'Connor.
In addition to the payment for the apprentice, employers may receive an additional $15,000 over the life of the apprenticeship.
People entering the workforce in a select 19 industries may be eligible for an additional $10,000 over the duration of the apprenticeship in an attempt to boost numbers in crucial industries
Ambulance officers, furniture makers, pharmacy technicians and nursing support workers are the big winners out of the commitment, announced by Skills and Training Minister Brendan O'Connor
Mr O'Connor said he hopes the cash incentive will help to develop 'the skilled workforce our economy needs in priority areas now and into the future'.
'The occupations on the list are based on hard evidence drawn from public and private data, that has been analysed by Jobs and Skills Australia,' he said.
'The work carried out by Jobs and Skills Australia is imperative to determine what skills are needed today and what skills will be needed to future-proof Australia.'
Loan comparison service RateCity revealed average mortgage interest costs soared to $69,700 in 2023, up from just under $42,000 in 2022, based on a $1.12million loan - 80 per cent of the median 2022 Sydney house price of $1.4million.
RateCity research director Sally Tindall told the Daily Telegraph 'each hike isn't like getting hit with a one-off parking fine, or a broken hot water heater, or even the yearly rego renewal.
'It's an extra expense people must pay, month after month, after month.'
It is getting harder and harder to find a rental property in Australia (a line to view an apartment in Bondi is pictured), as interest rates soar and homeowners charge more
In addition to the rate rises, electricity costs have soared, as have grocery bills and petrol prices.
Some relief is due to come in 2024 with the stage three tax cuts.
And the government's latest announcement expanding the Australian Apprenticeship Priority List is a measure which Prime Minister Anthony Albanese hopes will further alleviate pressures.
In a statement, a spokesperson for the department said: 'These payments are aimed at encouraging apprentices and trainees to pursue work in areas of skills shortage, complete their training, and go on to have successful long-term careers.'
Additionally, a series of fortnightly Centrelink payments - including Youth Allowance, Austudy, Abstudy, the Disability Support Pension and the Carer Allowance - will jump as part of an annual indexation adjustment benefiting 936,000 Australians.
These recipients are getting a big boost, above the most recent inflation rate, as the Reserve Bank's inflation-busting rate rises hit middle-aged home borrowers battling higher mortgage repayments.
The Youth Allowance for teenagers under 18 living at home is going up by $22.40 to $395.30 a fortnight - in line with the Abstudy rate for those of the same age.
Those living away from home and who are studying, aged 18 to 24, will see their Youth Allowance or Austudy payment rise by $36.20 to $639.
The Youth Allowance covers those who are aged 16 to 21 and looking for full time work, those aged 18 to 24 studying full-time and those aged 16 to 24 doing an apprenticeship.
Australians are feeling the pinch more now than ever. The PM helped serve free Christmas lunch on December 25
The Carer Allowance is increasing by $8.70 a fortnight to $153.50, while apprentice nursing support workers will be eligible for an additional payment
The Disability Support Pension for those under 18 living at home is rising by $31.10 to $548.80.
Those aged 18 to 20 are getting a $34.50 boost, taking it to $608.70.
Australians with a disability living independently will see their payments rise by $44.90 a fortnight to $792.50.
The Carer Allowance is increasing by $8.70 a fortnight to $153.50.
The 6 per cent boost is more generous than recent inflation figures - the September quarter inflation rate was 5.4 per cent and October's monthly rate was 4.9 per cent.
Social Services Minister Amanda Rishworth hailed the six per cent welfare boost that will help 936,000 people.
'Australia's social security system is a safety net that is continually strengthened and improved to support all vulnerable Australians,' she said.
'Through regular indexation, our payments are adjusted in line with changes in the cost of living to retain their purchasing power.' | https://www.dailymail.co.uk/news/article-12915271/Apprentices-trainees-government-cash-splash-2024.html | 2024-01-01T04:56:45Z |

Nazarbayev attended presentation of Equus: History of the Horse film
The documentary was directed by Canadian anthropologist and film maker Niobe Thompson and Kazakhstani producer, researcher Nurbol Baimukhanov.
The film was shot in Kazakhstan with the participation of local actors, stuntmen, dubbing actors and decorators.
Based on scientific researches and modern information technologies, the film-makers reconstructed the periods of life of ancient cultures in the vast Kazakh territory, their activity, which was closely linked to horse domestication. This process determined the establishment of a new system of mankind communication and laid the foundation for active migrations, emergence of new ethnic groups and early states.
In March 2019, the documentary trilogy will be released for national broadcasters of 50 countries including Canada (CBS), U.S. (PBS), Germany (ZDF), France (ARTE), Denmark (DR) and Kazakhstan (Qazaqstan TV and Radio Complex).
Besides, the President visited the press-centre of the Central Communications Service of the Information and Communications Ministry.

I played the “beautiful game” of football competitively from age 12 until age 16, and what fascinated me the most was the power of the referee.
In our dynamic and complicated world of today, who or where is the referee? Because for close to a century, the US was usually seen unofficially, though, as the moral compass and referee of the world, especially post-WWII. The Marshall Plan, first promoted by US Secretary of State General George Marshall in June 1947, benefited countries like France, Greece, Italy, Luxembourg, and a dozen others. It was a defining moment in our world’s history and a colourful introduction to America’s seeming benevolence.
Though there was no referee’s uniform to wear, the blue and white stripes and stars of the American flag were usually a welcome recognition by a planet in need of a neutral but powerful voice of reason. In the last decade, however, in what was the beginning of a seeming vacuum that included a new doctrine of “America first,” other newer and bolder competing powers for the role of the world’s referee organically emerged. One of the smallest and boldest emerging influencers for this role has been the state of Qatar, whose nationally branded planes were the only aircraft visible when the Taliban suddenly reemerged as the dominant power in Afghanistan in August 2021 when the US withdrew from that strategic central Asian nation. The EU block, if it has its way, would also desire a speaking role as one voice. Except it is like trying to herd a bunch of cats, because most EU members still nurse or polish a national agenda that benefits their political and economic interests first.
Tiny Qatar, just weeks ago in early December, played a very prominent role in the life-saving ceasefire between Israel and Hamas. It is a conflict where one too many lives have been lost, as the world watched as a collective spectator group — some with hands on their heads in shock, some with hands over their eyes to block the carnage, while still some are in the cheering stand, cautiously gazing around and looking out for signs the tide of support just might change. Indeed, a quiet world in a loud neighbourhood!
Now that I have tried to set this global stage of seeming chaos, distrust, mistrust, and the ever-changing rules of a game, many are too afraid to get caught watching — like a bootleg movie in a darkened high school dorm. The question is, “who or where is that moral compass” called a referee today?
Prime Minister Ralph Gonsalves of St. Vincent and the Grenadines, whom I sat down with 5 years ago on December 14th, brokered a first face-to-face Presidential meeting in another impending military conflict between two South American nations – Venezuela and Guyana, over the disputed oil-rich Essequibo territory. Here again, a smaller nation punches far above its weight as a referee in the absence of traditional names.
On this same Guyana and Venezuela impending international fracas, eight years ago, I had stepped into a mediation role at the UN between these two countries, meeting first with President David Granger of Guyana to convince the parties that there were other avenues to a military conflict. The peace held, seemingly, until December 3rd this year when President Nicolas Maduro called a referendum on annexing Essequibo.
So, was I a referee when I added my voice to this peace mediation, or was I just punching above my weight? Was I just a global citizen, a disillusioned spectator, or a young woman who was numbed by being part of a very “quiet world” in a loud neighbourhood called ‘chaos,’ with screams of help echoing from streets and alleys that began in Ukraine, Israel, the Sahel, and more devastatingly today — in Gaza.
But if I was a referee, I would come in three parts: the craftiness of Henry Kissinger, the audacious optimism of Brigadier Joseph Garba, and the rugged patience of Sergei Lavrov.

EXCLUSIVEFurious Aussies say the ABC should be dropped from broadcasting Sydney's NYE fireworks after the family-friendly 9pm event was hijacked by pro-Palestine slogan and angry Indigenous rap group 3%
- Calls for the ABC to be axed as hosts of NYE coverage
- Broadcast was slammed as 'woke s***show' by viewers
- Live coverage was similarly criticised in 2022 and 2023
- READ MORE: ABC slammed for 'woke' coverage of New Year's Eve fireworks
Prominent Aboriginal Australian Warren Mundine has joined calls for the ABC to be axed from hosting the annual New Year's Eve fireworks coverage after yet another another divisive and politically-charged broadcast.
The taxpayer-funded national broadcaster has been widely criticised for their coverage of Sydney's 9pm New Year's Eve fireworks display, which was watched by millions of Australians, many of them under 12 years old.
While the display showed a projection of the popular kids show Bluey on the pillars of the Sydney Harbour Bridge before the 9pm fireworks - it also featured an overtly political performance from Indigenous rap group 3%.
The group's song 'Our People' features lyrics like 'They stole the land in the name of their kings', 'They locked us up and then they threw away the key' and 'You can suck my Moby D***'.
The references to the failed Voice to Parliament referendum, the colonisation of Australia, and the Stolen Generation prompted critics to question why the ABC chooses to politicise New Year's Eve every year.
The broadcast also featured Melbourne singer Angie McMahon, who not only took to the stage to sing Sinead O'Connor's Nothing Compares to You, but to make a statement about the Israel-Hamas conflict.
McMahon took the opportunity to weigh in on the Israel-Palestine conflict during her set, telling the crowd: 'Palestinians should be free'.
Viewers slammed the singer as a 'wannabe activist' and questioned why the tax-payer funded performances had to come with a 'painful political statement'.
Rap group 3% drew mixed reviews after they performed before the 9pm fireworks in Sydney
Others called for the ABC to be defunded for choosing a racially-charged rap song about Invasion Day as part of the family friendly content.
'It's nothing but government propaganda and full of the woke agenda. No thanks. Greatest waste of taxpayer money. #Defund ABC,' one person wrote on X.
'Who at ABC Australia thought it was a good idea to put an awful rap group on before the early kids fireworks and then spend a large chunk of the fireworks just showing projections on the Bridge?' another said.
Prominent anti-Voice campaigner Warren Mundine told Daily Mail Australia it was 'disgraceful' for the ABC to politicise New Year's Eve entertainment.
'We just want to have a relaxed start to the year and have fun, because it's going to be a big year this year,' Mr Mundine said.
'NYE is an incredible landmark occasion for Sydney, and the world, in fact. It's telecast all over the world, and I think people are getting sick and tired of the politicisation of things.
'We're sick and tired of the politicisation of everything. We Australians are pretty laid back.'
Popular cartoon characters from kid's TV show Bluey were projected onto the Harbour Bridge
The rap group 3% performed with backing from traditional Indigenous dancers (pictured)
'I think it's time channel 7 took over as the NYE hosts, ABC sucks!' another wrote.
A third slammed the coverage as the 'worst NYE broadcast ever' and said they turned it off after realising it was 'just another woke s***show'.
A fourth wrote: 'What ever happened to a fun night out for all without a painful political statement? It's hard to believe this 'unbiased' station still exists when it's tax payer funded and costs billions each year'.
An ABC spokesman told Daily Mail Australia that family viewing was an important part of the broadcast.
He said in the lead-up to the fireworks an exclusive viewing of Muster Dogs Series 2 was featured as well as a special surprise from Bluey and Calling Country, a celebration of Aboriginal and Torres Strait communities, produced by Indigenous social enterprise We Are Warriors.
'The ABC's NYE concert also showcased the biggest names in Australian music, including Jessica Mauboy, Genesis Owusu, King Stingray, Confidence Man, Angie McMahon, Mark Seymour, Grentperez and the Queen of New Year's Eve, Casey Donovan,' the spokesman said.
'The ABC is a proud supporter of all aspects of Australian culture and entertainment on New Year's Eve and every other night of the year.'
Earlier in the evening, a smoking ceremony was held on traditional boats Tribal Warrior, Mari Nawi and Wiraw from 7.30pm.
Spectators were then treated to a light show at 8.30pm with AI-driven projections on the Harbour Bridge and illuminated boats in the water.
Just before 9pm, a Welcome to Country was led by Aboriginal elders from Sydney before the fireworks display titled 'Calling Country' began.
The show, which was choreographed by Aboriginal and Torres Strait Islander artists, was described as a celebration of sky, land and sea country.
More than a million people flocked to vantage points across Sydney Harbour to catch the display - however not everyone was happy with what they saw.
Calls have loudened for the 'woke' ABC to be sacked as hosts of the annual event and be replaced with a different broadcaster this year.
'Is it time for us all to just admit that the ABC is a national embarrassment when it comes to NYE broadcasts,' they said. 'It couldn't be less joyous if it tried.'
And it's not the first time the national broadcaster has been slammed for it's coverage of New Year's Eve.
Calls have loudened for the ABC to be 'sacked' as hosts of the New Year's Eve fireworks
In 2022, the ABC was slammed in the aftermath of the 9pm firework display with some unhappy spectators criticising its 'woke' theme.
The line-up featured a performance from rap duo Barkaa and Dobby who performed their 2020 song I Can't Breathe while wearing Black Lives Matter t-shirts.
It referenced the 438 Indigenous people who had died in police custody that year.
The 2022 'Welcome to Country' fireworks theme was curated by Blak Douglas, formerly known as Adam Douglas Hill, an Indigenous artist and musician.
'We are taking over one of the most famous icons on the planet,' the artist said in reference to the Sydney Harbour Bridge while announcing the fireworks.
'An icon that was never consulted amongst either the Gadigal or Cammeray people.'
The display focused on the First Nations cultures followed by those from the Torres Strait Islands with an Indigenous-themed soundtrack used as music.
The ABC's live New Year's Eve coverage was as 'woke' and a 'disgrace' in 2022
Sydney's 9pm children's New Year's Eve fireworks display received mixed reviews in 2023 with some slamming the ABC for their political and 'woke' theme
In 2023, the ABC's live coverage of New Year's Eve was similarly criticised by viewers who called the show a 'woke disgrace'.
The show included singer Casey Donovan covering 2 Be Loved (Am I Ready) by Lizzo and a segment on Indigenous artists Carmen Glynn-Braun and Dennis Golding.
The pair curated the Calling Country 9pm fireworks around themes of land and sea which were projected onto the pylons of the Sydney Harbour Bridge.
'What an absolutely boring 9pm display with absolutely boring, unknown 'music' and with what is supposed to be a celebration for all, being hijacked by a woke minority', complained one viewer.
'What an absolute disgrace, a display of the exclusion of the majority', they added.
Another person wrote: 'Looks like @ABCTV #SydneyNYE is trying to appeal to a younger audience this year but they don't seem to understand young people don't stay at home on #NYE watching the #ABC'.
'#SydneyNYE could they have missed the mark more with the kids fireworks music selection?' someone else remarked.
Music for the fireworks display to ring in 2023 was an Indigenous-themed soundtrack
More than a million people flocked to vantage points across Sydney Harbour to catch the fireworks extravaganza, while others lived it up in pubs, clubs and at parties across Melbourne and the Gold Coast.
Some revellers' celebrations ended with a refreshing ocean swim at dawn, while others found themselves waiting hours for Ubers and trains until the early hours.
On the Gold Coast, torrential downpours did little to dampen the spirits of revellers who braved the rain to ring in 2024 in style.
Sydney Mayor Clover Moore said the city's New Year's Eve festivities provided a $280 million boost to the economy, according to a 2019 study. | https://www.dailymail.co.uk/news/article-12915295/ABC-dropped-broadcasting-Sydneys-NYE-fireworks.html | 2024-01-01T04:56:52Z |

Meet Rishabh Malhotra, founder of 'Tagda Raho', lauded by PM Modi in Mann Ki Baat
This Bengaluru-based fitness startup involves exercises with Gada (mace) and Mugdar (Indian club). Prime Minister Modi, also 36 years old, praised Rishabh Malhotra, the founder of this startup for promoting fitness through traditional Indian exercise methods.

In the latest episode of his radio show 'Mann Ki Baat', Prime Minister Narendra Modi mentioned the 'Tagda Raho' startup. This Bengaluru-based fitness startup involves exercises with Gada (mace) and Mugdar (Indian club). Prime Minister Modi, also 36 years old, praised Rishabh Malhotra, the founder of this startup for promoting fitness through traditional Indian exercise methods.
This fitness startup came into the headlines this year when former Indian team captain Mahendra Singh Dhoni showed interest and invested in it. Malhotra, while telling about the idea behind the name of the startup, stated, 'Tagda Raho' is used as a salutation in the Assam Regiment, similar to how officers and soldiers greet each other in that unit. Instead of saying hello or namaste, they say 'Tagda Raho' to each other when they meet. This concept comes from there.
"I am trying to bring out the concept of our traditional exercises through the 'Tagda Raho' startup, which has been ongoing in the country's akhadas, in a modern way so that people in the cities can adopt them," Malhotra added. Outlining the benefits his fitness startup could provide people, Malhotra said, "The first thing that happens when all your weight is on one side is that your posture improves and you open up. And when your posture opens up, your breathing improves. We are hunching so much that we don't realise the significant impact it's having on our lungs; our breathing is decreasing. So, this not only gives you strength and power, but it also brings a lot of change in your posture and your breathing."
Showing gratitude to PM Modi for bringing the nation's focus to his fitness startup, Malhotra said, "I am grateful that I got the opportunity to reach the nation through 'Mann Ki Baat' and introduce the 'Tagda Raho' startup." Emphasising the importance of embracing our traditional methods of exercising, 'Tagda Raho's founder stated, There's nothing wrong with going to the gym but what we have is better. The global fitness industry is not more than 150 years old. In India, the oldest gym that is still running is already 200 years old.
"There's nothing wrong with going to the gym, but before we blindly pick up things from everywhere, it's essential to see what resources we already have. If we don't recognise what we have, we'll end up circling back to the same things, waiting for someone from outside to tell us. Our country has such a large youth population that if we start accepting our things, we won't need to pick up anything from outside. It's not that what's happening outside is wrong, but what we have is better. The global fitness industry is not more than 150 years old. In India, the oldest gym that is still running is already 200 years old," Tagda Raho's founder, Malhotra, told ANI. (ANI)

Neeraj Mohan
New Delhi, December 31
India’s export of agricultural and processed food products has seen a 9.32 per cent decline from April to October in the fiscal year 2023-24 when compared to the last fiscal.
Traders suffered a loss of around $1,438 million as the overall export earnings came down to $13,985 million, year-on-year basis from April to October 2023 from $15,423 million in the same period of the previous year, revealed the latest export data released by the Agricultural and Processed Food Products Export Development Authority (APEDA).
This decline in agricultural exports is noteworthy, especially against the backdrop of specific commodities demonstrating contrasting trends.
The overall exports of cereals suffered a decline of nearly 24 per cent during this period. It came down to $6,290 million from $8,258 million, as the wheat exports were the worst affected and reported a fall of nearly 98 per cent due to the blanket ban imposed on exports by the government to counter spiralling prices in the domestic market.
However, the basmati export witnessed a 16.27 per cent rise, reaching $2,959 million from $2,545 million during the previous year as as the country exported a total 2,608 million tonnes (MT) of rice against 2,545 MT. The figure revealed that total exports of long-grained aromatic rice increased to 26.08 lakh MT during this year against 24.10 lakh MT during the previous year.
Due to the ban, the country’s non-basmati rice export suffered a setback with a decline of 20.16 per cent.
Interestingly, India’s buffalo meat export has registered 11.31 per cent increase during this period as the meat traders exported 7.34 lakh MT meat against 6.70 lakh MT last year. Despite the positive momentum in basmati exports, the overall scenario is marked by a challenging landscape for the farm sector. The Centre’s imposition of curbs on shipment of various commodities has played a significant role in shaping this trend.

It is trite that conventionally, the core mandate of a Central Bank in any economy is to maintain price stability which modern day economists regard as ‘inflation targeting’. Some Central Banks have overtime put figures as to what the target should be. The Federal Reserve in America, for example, has always targeted 2% as the permissible rate of inflation. Targets of other central banks in other advanced economies like the U.K, European Union, Japan have all hovered around that of the Federal Reserve. However, for emerging and developing economies like Nigeria and others, the bug of putting figures to inflation targeting has not really caught on.
Adjuncts to price stability maintenance are two other objectives any central bank should equally focus on. These are maintenance of financial stability and macro-economic stability. The former ensures the soundness of the financial ecosystem at any particular time. This objective is largely accomplished through deployment of regulatory instruments by the concerned central bank. The latter objective seeks to prompt the concerned central bank to get involved in shaping the relevant macro-economic indicators to desired ends.
It is largely in accomplishing the latter objective (ie macro-economic stability) that there seems to be division of recent amongst economists. While some favour central banks sticking to their orthodox role of inflation targeting, others forcefully argue that any central bank worth the name should go beyond mere inflation targeting and get significantly involved in the health of the economy. Metrics that will aid the growth and development of the economy must be its concern, so goes the argument!
Nowhere has the foregoing gained quiet traction recently than in Nigeria, especially with the stance of the current Central Bank of Nigeria (CBN) Governor, Mr. Olayemi Cardoso, that the CBN under his watch will focus on its core mandate which to all intents and purposes is a clear departure from the activities of the CBN under the leadership of its erstwhile Governor, Mr. Godwin Emefiele, where the second school of thought seemed to have had upper hand. Under the latter, the Nigerian economy witnessed direct CBN’s intervention in many sectors of the economy with agriculture, aviation, mining and power being the most prominent ones. Billions of naira were sunk into those sectors.
The desirability or otherwise of those interventions has continued to elicit diverse opinions. To the pros, the sectors that benefited from such interventions have the capacity to turn the fortunes of Nigeria from heavily relying on one source – oil economy – to multi sources of foreign earnings. They point to the different value chains in some of the sectors, especially agriculture, which are veritable areas of employment. Another point emanating from the pros is the food security which the intervention in agriculture particularly portents. They readily point to the success recorded in rice production which has helped to save the nation’s foreign earnings that would have otherwise gone into rice importation. The pros further contend that in a situation where other players in the economy were not forthcoming with policies amenable to the growth and development of the economy, the CBN had no option but to intervene as nature abhors vacuum.
Without depreciating any of the arguments of either side, the fact beyond contestation is that the Nigerian economy at present is in the throes.
To the cons, the CBN’s direct interventions in some sectors of the economy have been an unmitigated disaster. They point to repayment hiccups that have dogged the different programmes embarked upon by the CBN. They readily point to the anchor borrowers scheme where many beneficiaries (farmers in this instance) of the loan have simply vanished into thin air. They question the role of the CBN being seemingly transmuted from lender of last resort to lender of ‘first instance’ – a role that is the exclusive preserve of deposit money banks. To the many advertised gains of the interventions, the cons contend that they are at best largely exaggerated and at worst, non-existent at all. They are quick to point to the power and aviation sectors where the interventions are yet to yield any appreciable dividends.
Without depreciating any of the arguments of either side, the fact beyond contestation is that the Nigerian economy at present is in the throes. The indices are not encouraging: inflation is at its highest rate (presently 28.20%, according to National Bureau of Statistics – NBS) and there’s no sign of abatement; unemployment is anywhere between 35% – 40% and this is discarding reasonably the questionable unemployment figure released recently by the NBS; GDP is at a miserable 2.54% – below population growth of over 3%. The list goes on!
The grim economic situation is buoyed by scarcity of forex which is still the big elephant in the room and not the least, the cost of energy – petrol, diesel et cetera – which has been soaring, where public supply of electricity has refused to lift itself from ever comatose state. Any wonder why some multinationals have either left or contemplated leaving the shores of Nigeria? Their Nigerian counterparts that have not shut down are merely struggling with ominous consequences on jobs, revenue to government via taxes and even on prices and qualities of their commodities (traditionally representing goods and services). How many micro, small and medium enterprises (MSMEs) are still standing to be counted in the Nigerian economy today?
As a critical institution in the Nigerian economy, the CBN should not reveal itself in orthodoxy that will debar it from lending its weight in exterminating some of the ill baggage currently plaguing the economy. Every economy has its own peculiarities and must frontally address them accordingly and CBN should view its role in that light.
How to proceed? The current CBN leadership should carry out a critical evaluation of how the interventions of the immediate past leadership fared. The CBN should wean itself of the temptation of throwing away the baby with the bathwater; the positives should be taken, whilst the negatives were not amenable discarded. The CBN should be deliberate and pragmatic in the choice of sectors to intervene in and the banks that will act as intermediaries. Banks that have shown capacities in elevating certain sectors should be co-opted to partner with it in intervening in such sectors. Without mentioning names, any keen observer of the Nigerian economy knows the banks that are pro agricultural sector, those that are strong in financing MSMEs, et cetera.
Not the least, the leadership of the CBN should be more synergistic with the fiscal authorities, especially Federal Ministry of Finance, to avoid the pitfalls of its immediate predecessor.

On New Year's Eve, DeSantis urges crowd to defy odds and help him 'win the Iowa caucuses'
Ron DeSantis is underscoring how much Iowa means to him, campaigning there into the waning hours of 2023
WEST DES MOINES, Iowa -- To underscore how much Iowa means to Ron DeSantis, the Florida governor was unwilling to put his campaigning there on hold even in the waning hours of 2023.
At a New Year’s Eve event in a Sheraton Hotel ballroom in West Des Moines, jeans and cowboy boots outnumbered tuxedos and cocktail dresses, and Miller Lite seemed more popular than champagne.
But the modesty of the affair, where roughly 200 people turned out for the last campaign event of the busy year in Iowa, belied its the importance to the host, who has wagered the future of his Republican bid for president on the leadoff Iowa caucuses, just two weeks away.
“Are you ready to work hard over these next two weeks and win the Iowa caucuses?" DeSantis asked supporters who turned out at the suburban hotel Sunday evening.
While Donald Trump prepares to return this week for a series of rallies, DeSantis did not leave Iowa alone during the week between Christmas and New Year’s. He campaigned in the suburbs of Des Moines, Cedar Rapids and Davenport, revisiting spots he had gone to in 2023 as part of his drive to touch all 99 of Iowa’s counties as a gesture of commitment to the leadoff nominating contests.
But Trump holds a large advantage in Iowa polls as well as a sophisticated campaign organization in the state, threatening to deny DeSantis the win he needs to justify his claim to be the leading alternative to the former president.
Appearing Sunday night with his wife, Casey, and their young children, DeSantis urged his audience to defy the odds. “I think we have an opportunity to just make a statement that in this country it's we the people that ultimately decide these things,” he said. “Because I think you have a lot of media, they don't think you even matter.”
DeSantis wasn't alone in Iowa between Christmas and New Year's, a period typically free from politics. The Jan. 15 caucuses' earlier-than-usual spot on the election-year calendar lured former South Carolina Gov. Nikki Haley to eastern Iowa stops Friday and Saturday, as she competes with DeSantis as a Trump alternative.
Biotech entrepreneur Vivek Ramaswamy also stormed the state, trying to remain part of the conversation despite curtailing his advertising spending. Ramaswamy held more than two dozen Iowa events last week and over the weekend.
No one has more riding on Iowa than DeSantis, who reshuffled a campaign viewed early as national in scope after summer staff shakeups prompted by overspending and internal disagreements. He stood onstage Sunday evening in West Des Moines with Iowa Gov. Kim Reynolds and evangelical Christian leader Bob Vander Plaats, who have risked their own influence by backing DeSantis.
DeSantis and his supporters asked the audience Sunday to ignore polls that show him trailing Trump appreciably.
“Everywhere I go the polls do not match up with reality,” Vander Plaats told the crowd. “Going up in northwest Iowa — heavy Trump country — they all say the same thing to me. They like what he did, but it’s time to turn the page.”
DeSantis has an unrelenting Iowa schedule ahead of him beginning early this week. Trump, who has drawn hundreds — even thousands — more to fewer events, plans his own blitz over the final two weeks, including in deeply conservative northwest Iowa. | https://abcnews.go.com/US/wireStory/new-years-eve-desantis-urges-crowd-defy-odds-106028184 | 2024-01-01T04:56:58Z |
