China’s “Wrestles,” JF-17 With a fighter deal with Nigeria, India’s LCA Tejas is fully engaged in backchannel diplomacy!

by Leave a Comment

India’s Minister of External Affairs, S. Jaishankar, was in Nigeria recently Tejas to put diplomatic force behind the Indian offer of the indigenous fighter jet as it faces stiff competition from the Chinese warplane.

China is pushing its JF-17 to counter India’s offer of Light Combat Aircraft (LCA) Tejas to the African country. India, looking to strike its maiden deal, is marketing the indigenous fighter jet aggressively.

An official privy to the development confirmed to the EurAsian Times that the topic was indeed addressed during the recently concluded visit of the Indian Foreign Minister to Nigeria.

“The JF-17s representatives are already there,” the official added.

Nigeria is looking to procure 15 fighter jets to replace its obsolete fleet of Chengdu F-7NI. The existing fleet of Chinese fighter jets gives an unsaid advantage to the Chinese offer. Both LCA ‘Tejas’ (Brilliance) and JF-17 ‘Thunder’ are single-engine multi-role combat aircraft.

India has been pushing for defense exports with an ambitious streak unknown earlier. Indian Finance Minister Nirmala Sitharaman said in December 2023 that the country’s defense exports would touch $2.88 billion (around Rs 24,000 crore) in the financial year 2024.

Indian Aerospace maker Hindustan Aeronautics Limited (HAL) Chairman CB Ananthkrishnan confirmed in December 2023 that negotiations were ongoing with Nigeria.

LCA’ Tejas’ has come a long way since its conception. The aircraft is becoming the backbone of the Indian Air Force (IAF), which has inducted the warplane in its inventory and will soon be deploying them on its forward bases on the western front with Pakistan.

Reports indicate that Tejas will soon be deployed in operational roles in the northern sector, where it would have to go one-on-one against Pakistan’s F-16s and China-Pakistan Joint Venture JF-17 should conflict happen between these countries.

India had deployed its full diplomatic force behind Tejas to sell it to Argentina. However, the discomfort over the possibility of a Chinese fighter jet in its backyard forced the US to offer second-hand F-16s to the South American country.

Even though the newly elected government has not made an official announcement, it is a foregone conclusion that the deal has been snatched by the US fighter jet.

The Indian representatives would not want to be outflanked by Chinese’ Thunder.’ The Nigerian Air Force, facing challenges from multiple fronts, including separatist movements, piracy, violence within communities, and the Islamist militant group Boko Haram, operates three JF-17s already. The JF-17s were inducted in 2021.

With only 150 aircraft and 15,000 troops, Nigeria’s air force is in desperate need of modernization. The majority of Nigeria’s air force inventory, according to the International Institute for Strategic Studies, is made up of antiquated or aged aircraft, including the Alpha Jet, F-7, and MiG-21.

Besides this, the Nigerian Air Force operates the Chinese Unmanned Aerial Vehicle Wing Loong II.

Advantages Tejas Has Over JF-17

The Indian side has been quick to underscore Tejas’s better serviceability over JF-17s. In the IAF squadron, the LCA has a serviceability of over 75 percent.

“Out of 100 aircraft delivered to date, at least 40 JF-17 aircraft are known to be unserviceable. The number of “incidents” in Pakistan & Myanmar show a dismal record. The LCA, on the other hand, has nil accident record and high serviceability,” an official affirmed in conversation with the EurAsian Times.

Another parameter that sets LCA one notch up the JF-17 is the fly-by-wire system. The JF-17 has a triplex redundant fly-by-wire system, and the LCA has a quadruplex redundant architecture.

The LCA Tejas, claims the Indian official, has a lighter dry, empty weight than JF-17 Thunder and can carry 1000 kg more payload. The LCA has a smaller fuselage, higher sweep angle, and large lift generation area, making it highly maneuverable and more agile when compared to JF-17 Thunder.

LCA’s better thrust-to-weight ratio gives it a better climb and turn performance. The JF-17 has seven hot points for carrying weapons, while the LCA has eight hot points.

“All weapons on the JF-17 are imported, making its export variant very expensive and reliant on third parties. The LCA comes with indigenous weapons,” the official added.

Honing Tejas Brilliance

The IAF has already begun sending the existing two LCA squadrons on detachments to forward air bases along the western and northern frontiers, as was witnessed recently with a squadron in Awantipur in Jammu and Kashmir for training.

The biggest handicap the Tejas has so far has been that it is not combat-proven and has never faced a challenge, as its Indian peninsular deployment meant it is a peace-time combat jet.

But all that could change if Tejas is permanently deployed in one of India’s forward air bases facing west or north, and it would need to patrol the skies over India’s two volatile borders.

In the making since the 1980s, the LCA has now entered the services of the Indian Air Force (IAF) and will replace the aging fleet of the Soviet-vintage MiG-21s. The last unit of the MiG-21 is expected to phase out in 2025.

The order for these 90 aircraft will be in addition to the 83 LCA Mk1A that the force has already placed with the state-owned Hindustan Aeronautics Limited (HAL) in 2021. Once both orders are executed in the next 15 years, the IAF will have 40 LCA, over 180 LCA MK 1A, and at least 120 LCA MK-2 fighter jets.

Google & Apollo’s Indian AI Health Initiative!

by Leave a Comment

Google Health and Apollo’s Indian Radiology International have partnered in an innovative way to use artificial intelligence (AI) to transform disease detection in India. Through this partnership, the quality and accessibility of healthcare will be improved, especially with regard to early identification of serious illnesses like breast, lung, and tuberculosis (TB).

India’s Problem with Disease Detection

India’s enormous population, which is dispersed among both urban and rural areas, presents a special set of healthcare issues. There is a severe lack of qualified medical personnel, particularly radiologists, and a marked imbalance in access to healthcare services. When it comes to early disease detection—which is essential for efficient treatment and higher survival rates—this disparity is more noticeable.

The AI Intervention by Google Health

In order to meet this problem, Google Health has implemented AI models that facilitate early disease identification. These models are intended to evaluate medical pictures, such as mammograms and chest X-rays, and to spot early disease indicators that are frequently overlooked because of a lack of specialist knowledge.

The Impact of AI on Tuberculosis In India, tuberculosis screening is still a serious health concern because to the disease’s high death rate but also its high possibility for recovery with prompt treatment. In order to fill the gap in the radiology workforce by analyzing chest X-ray scans for early indicators of tuberculosis on a large scale, Google Health built an AI system.

Taking On Breast and Lung Cancer

There isn’t a countrywide screening program for lung cancer, despite it being one of the top cancer deaths in India. Google’s AI models are intended to increase the accessibility of lung cancer screening and offer an extra check for unintentional nodules. Similar to this, AI can help radiologists interpret mammograms to scale up screening efforts across India for breast cancer, which has a death rate more than three times higher than that of the United States.

The Future of AI in Indian Healthcare

This collaboration is just the start of AI’s enormous potential in the medical field. We anticipate a dramatic change in the way diseases are identified and managed in India as AI systems advance and are more thoroughly incorporated into healthcare processes. In India, Google and Apollo AI Health Venture have made a substantial advancement in the fight against serious illnesses. This partnership has the potential to save countless lives and establish a new benchmark for healthcare delivery in the nation by fusing technology innovation with a dedication to accessibility.

After the US Fed’s rate announcement, the gold rate reaches a new high of ₹66,778. Is it better to buy or not? Will it rise even higher?

by Leave a Comment

On March 21, gold prices began trading higher at ₹66,100 per 10 grammes on the Multi Commodity Exchange (MCX) for the April 2024 expiry.

Gold prices on March 21: The price of gold continued to rise after the US Federal Reserve decided to maintain interest rates at a 23-year high for a fifth straight meeting and indicated that it still intends to make three cuts this year. At ₹66,100 per 10 gm, the Multi Commodity Exchange (MCX) gold futures contract for the April 2024 expiry opened higher. Shortly after the commodities market opened, it reached an intraday high of ₹66,778 per 10 gm.

Although authorities would want to see more proof that prices are declining, US Fed Chair Jerome Powell noted that “most people’s view that we will achieve that confidence and there will be rate cuts” is still plausible.

What experts stated about the spike in gold prices?

According to Bloomberg, Chris Weston, head of research at Pepperstone Group Ltd., stated: “What we saw last night was really the green light for gold traders to come back in.” The Federal Reserve has stated that, as of right now, it is tolerant of the inflation that has been observed and that the strength of the job market will not be a barrier.

What are the gold spot prices for March 21st?

In Singapore, spot gold increased 0.7% to $2,201.94 per ounce at 9:40 a.m. While palladium, platinum, and silver all saw increases, the Bloomberg Dollar Spot Index saw a 0.2% fall.

Why has the price of gold been rising?

Since the middle of February, the price of gold has increased due to several factors, such as increased geopolitical threats and buying by central banks, primarily China. Experts believe that expectations for looser monetary policy in the US have contributed to the rally.

Update about Sadhguru Jaggi Vasudev’s health: After brain surgery, the neurologist says, “Healing himself…recovering.”

by Leave a Comment

Sadhguru’s current state of health: A physician stated that, in addition to the medical interventions carried out by the Indraprastha Apollo Hospitals, Sadhguru is healing himself.

Sadhguru Jaggi Vasudev’s : Doctors claimed that spiritual leader Sadhguru Jaggi Vasudev is “recovering well” following emergency brain surgery on Wednesday at a private hospital.

Senior Consultant Neurologist Dr. Vinit Suri of Apollo Hospitals stated in a video that Sadhguru had been experiencing excruciating headaches for the past four weeks. The spiritual guide maintained his routine and activities despite poor health, even leading the all-night MahaShivRatri celebrations on March 8.

After a week, Sadhguru Jaggi Vasudev’s developed a severe headache. A large brain bleed was discovered during Sadhguru’s urgent MRI, which was ordered on Dr. Suri’s recommendation.

Despite the doctor’s advice to check him into a hospital right away, Sadhguru decided to go to events. “In the last forty years, I have not missed a single meeting,” Sadhguru declared to Dr. Suri.

Later, on March 17, Sadhguru’s neurological condition deteriorated.

After that, Sadhguru Jaggi Vasudev’s had brain surgery by Dr. Vinit Suri, Dr. Pranav Kumar, Dr. Sudheer Tyagi, and Dr. S Chatterjee.

“Sadhguru has shown steady progress and his body, brain, and vital parameters have improved to normal levels,” says Dr. Suri. His recuperation has gone far more smoothly than anticipated.

He claimed that in addition to the medical interventions carried out by the Indraprastha Apollo Hospitals, Sadhguru is healing himself.

From his hospital bed, Sadhguru sent a video to his Instagram account on Wednesday. “The neurosurgeons at Apollo Hospital sawed into my skull in an attempt to uncover something, but they discovered nothing at all—it was empty. They eventually gave up and fixed it. “I am in Delhi with my skull repaired, but my brain is unharmed,” he remarked.

Posting on X, Modi wrote, “Spoke to @SadhguruJV Ji and wished him good health and a speedy recovery.”

In response to Modi’s communication, Sadhguru expressed his rapid overwhelm with the prime minister’s care.

Gabe Vincent injury update: The Lakers star guard’s likely timeline for a comeback is discussed ahead of the 2024 NBA playoffs!

by Leave a Comment

LA Lakers guard Gabe Vincent has only played in five games this season before being shut down permanently after requiring arthroscopic surgery on his left knee. The last time he suited up was back on Dec. 20, but fans could see him return to action very soon.

Per Marc Stein, the Laker guard could return soon, although an actual timeline hasn’t been announced. However, he could be back in time before the playoffs kick off, which should help the team’s depth.

There was some excitement regarding Vincent’s acquisition during the offseason’s free agency period. However, fans of the LA-based franchise have barely seen the guard in action. He played the first four games of the season before being sidelined from the beginning of November to Dec. 18.

On Dec. 20, Vincent suited up for one more game before being permanently shut down after requiring arthroscopic surgery on his left knee. In the five games that he played, he averaged 5.4 points on 37.5 shooting from the field.

Gabe Vincent’s absence led to some depth issues for LA, especially at the PG position which they addressed by adding Spencer Dinwiddie.

Where does Gabe Vincent fit in the LA Lakers’ rotation?

Gabe Vincent was key in spreading Erik Spoelstra’s offense last season as he displayed some very sweet shooting. Vincent had some big games, which helped the Miami Heat upset the Boston Celtics. He also had a strong contribution against the Denver Nuggets in the Heat’s only win in the Finals.

There was a lot of hope that he would bring the same energy and continue in his development to help the Lakers become legitimate contenders. However, none of this has worked out.

Vincent was supposed to be a backup to D’Angelo Russell, but his knee issues have prevented that. With Spencer Dinwiddie filling the backup point guard role, how does Vincent fit in the Lakers’ rotation?

With him most likely being on a minutes restriction when he returns, Vincent probably won’t take over the backup spot immediately. He will also have to battle it out against Dinwiddie to earn that spot permanently.

Vincent can also be an effective floor spacer and can play off the ball. As such, he could sometimes be asked to come in at the two-guard spot.

Gabe Vincent’s spot on the roster will of course depend on how well he bounces back after being sidelined for a long time. However, if he is given enough opportunities and is allowed to recover, he can still carve a role for himself in the team’s lineup.

Badaun Murders: 2 children beaten to death in Uttar Pradesh; suspects dead in police encounter

by Leave a Comment

Badaun murder news: The event occurred while the two youngsters, aged around 11 and 6, were playing on the rooftop of a building in Baba Colony.

Badaun murders 2 children

A guy hacked the children to death on Tuesday evening in Uttar Pradesh Badaun’s Baba Colony before being slain in an encounter with police, according to news agency ANI.

The incident occurred as the two youngsters, aged around 11 and six, were playing on the terrace of a building. The culprit, named as Sajid, arrived and waited for some time before killing them, according to Bareilly Inspector-General of Police Rakesh Kumar. According to the Indian Express, the victims were brothers Ayush and Honey.

“When the police arrived, the accused attempted to flee the scene. We pursued the accused. He opened fire on cops and was murdered in retaliation. The accused died on the spot. “The police are looking into the case,” Rakesh Kumar stated.

“The accused Sajid entered the residence yesterday around 7:30 p.m. and walked to the terrace, where the children were playing. He attacked and murdered the two children. He then came down, and the throng attempted to keep him back, but he fled…When police learned that the accused had escaped, they acted quickly…Badaun SSP Alok Priyadarshi informed ANI that the accused fired at the police and was killed in retaliation.

He stated that the murder weapon and pistol had been recovered. In the FIR, the family of the murdered children names the accused’s brother, Javed. “Teams are working to find him, and he will be arrested soon,” the SSP announced.

Who is the accused and why did he kill the children?

IG Rakesh Kumar said the accused is aged between 25 and 30 years. “We will be disclosing their details after further investigation,” he said.

When asked about the motive behind the murders, Badaun district magistrate (DM) Manoj Kumar said, “The reason for the murder is not clear yet. It will be found out during the investigation.”

Reports, however, claimed that there was some dispute over money which led to the incident. The SSP, citing the victim’s family, said the accused had demanded ₹5,000 from the father of the deceased children. He said the police were now investigating what led to the murder.

Tension in Badaun

Heavy police security was deployed at the Baba Colony located near the Mandi Samiti outpost as locals protested against the ghastly double murder.

NDTV reported that angry locals set a shop on fire after the incident in Baba Colony. The situation is now under control, the police said.

District magistrate Manoj Kumar said some people got agitated after the incident and they have been asked to maintain peace.

“We received information this evening that at Baba colony near the Mandi Samiti police outpost, a man entered a house and murdered two young children. After the incident, some people got agitated. The people have been asked to maintain peace,” Manoj Kumar told ANI. He added that the bodies have been sent for postmortem. “We have assured them that an investigation will be carried out,” the DM said.

Meet Mukesh Ambani, Anil Ambani’s lesser-known sister who married a friend and now lives in Goa.

by Leave a Comment

She married businessman Dattaraj Salgaocar, a childhood friend of Mukesh and Anil Ambani. She has a son, Vikram Salgocar, and a daughter, Isheta Salgaocar.

Mukesh Ambani sister

When we think of the Ambani family, the names Mukesh Ambani and Anil Ambani spring to mind immediately. The Ambani brothers have two lesser-known sisters, Nina Kothari and Deepti Salgaoncar.

In this post, we shall discuss Deepti Salgaoncar, the youngest child of the late Dhirubhai Ambani and the younger sister of Mukesh and Nita Ambani.

Deepti’s birth date is January 23, 1962. She attended VM Salgaocar College of Law and now lives in Goa.

She is married to businessman Dattaraj Salgaocar, who was a childhood friend of Mukesh and Anil Ambani. She has a son named Vikram Salgocar and a daughter named Isheta Salgaocar.

In 1978, Dhirubhai Ambani and his family lived on the 22nd level of Usha Kiran, Mumbai’s sole skyscraper. Vasudev Salgaoncar, a businessman, and his family lived on the fourteenth floor. Dhirubhai and Vasudev had built a close bond due to their similar origins.

After Vasudev Salgaoncar died, Dhirubhai became Dattaraj’s mentor and father figure. Raj, Mukesh, and Anil Ambani, who were all close in age, had a strong bond and spent a lot of time together.

Deepti and Duttaraj were bound to meet because their families visited one other on a regular basis. They had an instant connection and rapidly fell in love. Deepti and Raj married on December 31, 1983, after dating for five years. They started their new life together in Goa, where they lived happily ever after.

Dattaraj Salgaocar, Deepti’s husband, established Sunaparanta to preserve Goa’s culture and ethnicity. Deepti serves as the institution’s vice-chairperson and advisory board member.
