Delhi Chalo march: ‘ ₹2 lakh crore is not a huge amount’, farmer leader Sarwan Singh urges Govt to remove barriers!

by Leave a Comment

Farmer leader Sarwan Singh Pandher urges PM Modi to accept demands as farmers aim to march towards Delhi with peaceful intentions.

Delhi Chalo march today: Farmer leader Sarwan Singh Pandher on Wednesday said Prime Minister Narendra Modi should come forward to accept their demands and the farmers should be allowed to march towards Delhi.

He said, “An amount of ₹1.5-2 lakh crore is not a huge amount…We should be allowed to remove these barriers and march towards Delhi.”

“We tried our best from our side. We attended the meetings, every point was discussed and now the decision has to be taken by the central government. We will remain peaceful,” Pandher added. 

Farmer leader Jagjit Singh Dallewal said protesting farmers, who have been camping at two border points between Punjab and Haryana after they were stopped by security personnel, will peacefully march towards Delhi.

“Our intention is not to disturb peace, “Dallewal said ahead of the farmers’ plan to march towards the national capital.

He also condemned the Centre for setting up multi-layered barricades at the border points between Punjab and Haryana to prevent them from heading towards Delhi.

“It is our request that we want to go to Delhi peacefully. The government should itself remove the barricades and give us the permission to march towards Delhi and make arrangements for our sitting in Delhi,” Dallewal told reporters at the Shambhu border point.

The farmers protesting at two border points between Punjab and Haryana will resume their “Delhi Chalo” march on Wednesday after they rejected the Centre’s proposal for procuring pulses, maize and cotton at the MSP by government agencies for five years.

Thousands of farmers, who began their march to Delhi on February 13, were stopped at the Haryana border itself, where they clashed with security personnel. The farmers have been camping at the Shambhu and Khanauri border points between Punjab and Haryana since then.

The Samyukta Kisan Morcha (Non-Political) and the Kisan Mazdoor Morcha are spearheading the “Delhi Chalo” march to press the Centre to accept their demands, including a legal guarantee on the MSP for crops and farm loan waiver.

Anushka Sharma and Virat Kohli

Anushka Sharma and Virat Kohli got married in 2017 in an intimate ceremony in Italy. They dated for some years before finally tying the knot. They welcomed their first child, a daughter they named Vamika, on January 11, 2021.

Rumours of Anushka Sharma’s second pregnancy have been doing rounds since last year. It grew even stronger when the actor started limiting her public appearances. She even rarely attended cricket matches of Virat. However, neither Virat nor Anushka commented on the pregnancy rumours.

Virat withdrew from the first two test matches against England and later withdrew from the whole series due to personal reasons. Later, his close friend AB de Villiers shared on his YouTube channel that Kohli and Anushka were expecting their second child, so the cricketer took some time out. However, a few days later, AB De Villiers changed his words and said that he was unaware of why Virat took a break.

Rahul Gandhi ‘taken into custody for 30-45 minutes’ in defamation case, gets bail, says lawyer!

by Leave a Comment

The case was filed by a BJP leader for allegedly making objectionable comments against Amit Shah.

Rahul Gandhi

Congress leader Rahul Gandhi was on Tuesday granted bail by the Sultanpur court in a 2018 defamation case filed by BJP leader Vijay Mishra for the former’s remarks against home minister Amit Shah. The court took him into custody for 30-45 minutes, said his lawyer.

Speaking about Rahul’s bail advocate Santosh Pandey said, “He (Rahul Gandhi) surrendered in the court today. He surrendered and the court took him into custody for 30-45 minutes. After that, his bail application was submitted and was accepted (by the court)… The further date has not been given yet. His lawyer said that he is innocent and he has not made any defamatory statement…”.

Pandey further said that Rahul Gandhi could be given a maximum punishment of 2 years if sufficient evidence was found against him. Rahul was granted bail by Judge Yogesh Yadav after filling bail bonds.

The defamation case was filed against Congress leader Rahul Gandhi for allegedly making objectionable comments against Shah at a press conference in Bengaluru on May 8 that year. Amit Shah was the BJP president when Gandhi made the remark. Rahul Gandhi attacked the BJP and said that the party claimed to believe in honest and clean politics but has a party president who is an “accused” in a murder case.

Reacting to the development Mishra told ANI,”I was the vice president of BJP when this incident happened. Rahul Gandhi had accused Amit Shah in Bengaluru that he is a murderer. When I heard these allegations, I felt very pained because I am a 33-year-old worker of the party. I filed a complaint regarding this through my lawyer and this continued for almost 5 years…”

“The BJP is the biggest party of the country. Calling its (then) president a murderer is unjustifiable,” he added.

Wanindu Hasaranga breaks Malinga’s record to establish a new Sri Lankan record as Sri Lanka wins the series against Afghanistan!

by Leave a Comment

In recognition of his overall performance, Angelo Mathews was named Player of the Match (POTM). His rapid-fire innings of 42 from 22 balls and his 2/9 stats claimed were crucial to Sri Lanka victory.

Sri Lanka

Skipper Wanindu Hasaranga claimed his first-ever T20I series win since being appointed full-time captain as Sri Lanka made mincemeat of Afghanistan in the second game of the three-match series by 87 runs on Monday (February 19).

Sri Lankan batters used the batting-friendly strip at the Rangiri Dambulla International Cricket Stadium after the Afghan skipper Ibrahim Zadran won the toss and sent them in.

Openers Pathum Nissanka (25 runs off 11 deliveries) and Kusal Mendis (23 off 14 balls) got the hosts off to a blistering start, putting the pressure right back on the tourists up front.

The Sri Lankan pair added 45 runs inside four overs before Nissanka was trapped in front of his stumps by Azmatullah Omarzai. Mendis was quick to follow his partner to the dugout as he fell prey to Fazalhaq Farooqi two deliveries later.

The home side lost three more wickets without adding much to the scoreboard and was reduced to 121/5 in 14.2 overs. However, things took an amazing turn for the Wanindu Hasaranga-led side as Sadeera Samarawickrama (51 off 42 balls) and Angelo Mathews came together in the middle.

The duo added 66 off just 34 balls to propel the Lankan Lions to 187/6 in 20 overs. Mathews was the star of the show as he smashed four sixes and two fours and batted at a jaw-dropping strike rate of 190.90.

Afghanistan’s chase wobbled early and they were struggling to keep up with the asking rate, having lost half their side inside five overs.

The Sri Lankan bowlers were disciplined in their approach and didn’t offer any freebies for the tourists to cash in. A 39-run stand between Nabi and Karim Jant helped the visitors salvage their pride to some extent before the Lankan bowling attack came roaring back to restrict them to 115 in 17 overs.

Wanindu Hasaranga moves past Lankan legend Lasith Malinga

Skipper Hasaranga became the fastest Sri Lankan to 100 T20I wickets as he shattered Lasith Malinga’s record. Hasaranga achieved the feat in his 63rd T20I outing whereas it took Malinga 76 T20Is snare 100 scalps in the format.

Hasaranga is the second-fastest to scale the milestone and is behind Afghanistan’s Rashid Khan who bagged 100 T20I poles in just 53 games.

Delhi Lieutenant Governor discloses huge tax evasion in capital, urges for probe

by Leave a Comment

Lieutenant Governor VK Saxena, in a letter to Chief Minister Kejriwal, has revealed that Delhi holds the dubious distinction of having the highest tax evasion in India.

In Short

  • Delhi Lieutenant Governor reports highest tax evasion in capital
  • 483 bogus firms detected, evading Rs 3,028 crore tax, he says
  • VK Saxena urges inquiry headed by Finance Minister Sitharaman

In a revelation, the Lieutenant Governor (LG) of Delhi, VK Saxena, pointed out that the national capital has a dubious record of the highest tax evasion across the states and Union Territories in the country.

In a letter to Delhi Chief Minister Arvind Kejriwal, LG Saxena exposed the alarming state of tax governance in the city.

“Delhi has achieved the ignominious distinction of recording the highest tax evasion in the country,” the Lieutenant Governor’s letter stated.

He further provided the damning statistics – 483 bogus firms have been detected, accounting for a whopping Rs. 3,028 crore of tax evasion.

To put this in perspective, Delhi’s tax evasion outstrips by Rs 827 crore, the state placed second in this notorious list.

Furthermore, Saxena implied the possible involvement of the local GST Department’s officials in these malpractices.

He urged Kejriwal to initiate a meticulously planned inquiry into the matter, headed by Finance Minister Nirmala Sitharaman, to get to the bottom of such a rampant amount of tax evasion and its root cause.

The fact that the national capital leads the chart of tax evasion among all states and Union Territories is certainly unsettling.

Saxena asserted that this hints at a poor state of tax governance in the city, seriously undermining the public’s faith in the system.

Some OnePlus 12R users can get a full refund on their phones but only for a limited time

OnePlus has announced a limited-time opportunity for OnePlus 12R buyers to receive a full refund due to an inadvertent error in the handset’s storage configuration listing. Here are the details, including when this offer will expire.

In Short

  • OnePlus has announced full refund for the OnePlus 12R smartphone.
  • Customers who want to claim the refund have time until March 16.
  • The OnePlus 12R was recently announced in India for Rs 39,999.

OnePlus has announced a limited-time opportunity for OnePlus 12R buyers to receive a full refund due to an inadvertent error in the handset’s storage configuration listing. Customers who opted for the higher storage variant (256GB) of the OnePlus 12R are eligible for this refund offer, valid until mid-March. Here is everything you need to know.

The confusion arose when OnePlus accidentally advertised the recently launched OnePlus 12R with UFS 4.0 storage instead of the intended UFS 3.1 specification, aligning with the base storage option. The OnePlus 12R, which was introduced alongside the flagship OnePlus 12 model, boasts of impressive specifications including a Snapdragon 8 Gen 2 chipset, a top-notch screen, a massive battery with fast charging support, and more.

In a statement issued by OnePlus President and COO Kinder Liu, it was clarified that customers who purchased the 256GB storage variant of the OnePlus 12R have until March 16 to initiate a refund request. Liu emphasized that the company’s customer service teams are fully briefed on the matter, ready to assist buyers through the refund process.

Those who want to claim the refund offer will have to reach out to OnePlus’ customer service to discuss the file system discrepancy and initiate the return process. This one-month refund window provides affected customers with an opportunity to rectify the situation and obtain full reimbursement for their OnePlus 12R purchase. This is a really good decision as many companies fail to provide a resolution to customers’ issues.

To recall, the OnePlus 12R was launched in India with a starting price of Rs 39,999 in India. It runs on Android 14-based OxygenOS 14. The device packs a 6.78-inch LTPO 4.0 AMOLED display with a 120Hz refresh rate and Gorilla Glass Victus 2 protection. The new 5G phone is powered by Qualcomm’s Snapdragon 8 Gen 2 chip, which is backed by up to 16GB of RAM and 256GB of UFS 3.1 storage.

In terms of imaging capabilities, the OnePlus 12R features a 50-megapixel Sony IMX890 sensor primary camera. It is accompanied by an 8-megapixel ultra-wide-angle camera and a 2-megapixel macro camera. Additionally, you will see a 16-megapixel front-facing selfie camera as well. There is also a typical 5,000mAh battery with 100W SuperVOOC charging support. It is worth noting that OnePlus is one of the few top brands that is still bundling a charger in the retail box with all smartphones. And the OnePlus 12R is not an exception here. You get a fast charger in the box along with the device.

“They can take the next available flight back home,” the former player says, dismissing England’s prospects of retaliating with a Bazball strategy!

Former India opener Kris Srikkanth has criticized England’s Bazball approach, saying that it won’t work if they fail to adapt to the conditions in India. Srikkanth, known for his fearless approach to batting, ruled out any chances of England fighting back in the series even as the touring side remained defiant after the humbling loss in the 3rd Test in Rajkot. The Bazball era dealt England their most crushing blow as they suffered a 434-run defeat in the 3rd Test.

Srikkanth said England lack the talent to challenge India in Indian conditions, pointing fingers at the inexperienced spin-bowling attack. 

“I doubt the practical success of promoting Bazball and similar theories. Have these strategies proven effective, especially in the Ashes? To be honest, no tactic can succeed if the team continues to perform poorly. The hype surrounding the Bazball theory seems unwarranted, as it requires the skill to bat effectively in specific conditions. Additionally, successful bowling demands genuine talent,” he said on his YouTube show ‘Cheeky Cheeka’.

England stunned India in the first Test of the ongoing 5-match series in Hyderabad, but the tourists have lost steam, losing the second and third Tests by huge margins. The Rajkot Test defeat, by a record margin of 434 runs, doused the hype around Bazball with even former England cricketers taking a swipe at the popular approach that brought England plenty of success before they arrived in India.

“If feasible, they could take the next available flight back home. However, they are obligated to participate in the remaining two Tests,” he jokingly said when asked about England’s chances of fighting back in the series.

Kris Srikkanth added that England need to look at adapting to situations and not remain bullish about their style of play if they are to recover from the Rajkot Test hammering.

“Yes, their batting performance in the first innings was commendable. Ollie Pope delivered an exceptional innings, and I acknowledge England’s credit for that. However, I doubt the sustainability of the Bazball approach in the long term. Simply going out and attempting to hit every ball may work for players like Brendon McCullum and Ben Stokes, but not everyone can execute that style successfully,” he added.

With Ben Stokes remaining defiant about their chances to win the series, the two teams will meet in the 4th Test in Ranchi from Friday.
