No Nehru papers missing from Teen Murti: Govt
NEW DELHI: In a twist to the political sparring over missing papers of Indias first Prime Minister Jawaharlal Nehru, the Union government on Friday told the Lok Sabha that no documents linked to Nehru were found to be missing from the Prime Ministers Museum and Library (PMML) during its annual inspection. The government said the routine verification exercise at the PMML had not flagged the absence of any records or correspondence associated with Nehru, A political row erupted in September after Rizwan Kadri, a member of the Prime Ministers Museum and Library (PMML) Society said he had written to Congress leader Sonia Gandhi to allow physical or digital access to private papers related to former Prime Minister Jawaharlal Nehru that are in her possession. Kadri claimed that the historical records related to Nehru including his letters to Lady Mountbatten were withdrawn following the instructions of Congress leader Sonia Gandhi in 2008. Replying to a question by BJP MP Sambit Patra, Union Culture Minister Gajendra Singh Shekhawat said in a written response,No documents related to Indias first Prime Minister, Pandit Jawaharlal Nehru, have been found missing from the museum during the annual inspection of the PMML in the year 2025. Sharing the response on X, Congress general secretary in-charge communications Jairam Ramesh sought to know if the party can expect an apology on the issue. The truth was finally revealed in the Lok Sabha yesterday. Will there be an apology forthcoming? PMML Society, the key decision-making body of the PMML, is helmed by Prime Minister Narendra Modi as its president, and Defence Minister Rajnath Singh as the vice-president. The minister was also asked whether PMML has formulated any policy for conducting an annual audit of the documents available in the museum. No, there is no annual audit of documents in the Prime Ministers Museum and Library,. Shekhawat said in the reply. Asked whether the said documents were improperly and illegally removed from the museum, Shekhawat said, Does not arise. The Union Minister further said in the Annual General Meeting of the PMML in 2025 that no decision regarding the non-availability of documents related to Pandit Jawaharlal Nehru, the first Prime Minister of India, was taken. PMML is housed in Teen Murti Bhawan, which also hosts the Pradhanmantri Sangrahalaya. The Teen Murti Bhawan in central Delhi, after Nehrus death, was turned into the Nehru Memorial Museum and Library (NMML), housing a rich collection of books and rare records. It was renamed the PMML Society in 2023.

New edu bill doesnt affect autonomy or powers of institutions, states: Pradhan
NEW DELHI: Education Minister Dharmendra Pradhan on Tuesday stressed that the Viksit Bharat Shiksha Adishtan Bill 2025 would neither impact the autonomy of institutions nor clip the powers of states in any way. Briefing the media at Shastri Bhavan, Pradhan said, There is no threat to institutional autonomy and even if the opposition has some concerns or misconceptions, they can be addressed by the Joint Parliamentary Committee. The bill has been referred to a committee comprising 21 members of the Lok Sabha and 10 from the Rajya Sabha, he added. In a first, the bill brings Institutions of National Importance (INIs) like the IIT and IIMs within its ambit. The bill, previously known as the Higher Education Council of India Bill, brings the functions performed by the present education regulators - the University Grants Commission (UGC), the All India Council for Technical Education (AICTE) and the National Council for Teacher Education (NCTE) under the ambit of a single commission and three autonomous Councils. A senior education official also briefed the media on queries about the funding of the Higher Educational Institutions (HEIs). Presently, the Government of India disburses grants to the Central Universities through the UGC on a quarterly basis while the UGC in turn disburses them on a monthly basis to the universities, he said. The NEP 2020 had called for separating the functions of funding from a body which sets academic standards and regulation. The disbursal of grants to the centrally funded HEIs shall be accordingly ensured through mechanisms devised by the Ministry of Education which will be similar to or better than the existing mechanisms, he explained. Other major financial support to the HEIs like Junior Research Fellow, Senior Research Fellow and so on will continue through a similar mechanism.
Cameron Green becomes most expensive overseas buy in IPL history
Australia all-rounder Cameron Green became the most expensive overseas buy in Indian Premier League history on Tuesday. Green was in the first set of players in the auction in Abu Dhabi and his name triggered a bidding war with former champions Kolkata Knight Riders finally signing him for next season for 252 million rupees ($2.77 million). In rupees, Green surpassed the previous overseas record of 247.5 million rupees paid by Kolkata in the 2024 auction for Mitchell Starc. The fall of the rupee means Starc's 2024 price was higher in dollars at $2.98 million. Three-time winners Kolkata also acquired Sri Lankan speedster Matheesha Pathirana for 180 million rupees. England's Liam Livingstone went to Sunrisers Hyderabad for 130 million rupees in the accelerated round after he went unsold in the first phase. Green has a capped salary of 180 million rupees due to a new maximum fee rule, with the remainder going to the Board of Control for Cricket in India. Very happy, something we were focused on and hoping. Happy with the price with which we got him, Kolkata chief executive Venky Mysore told reporters. He adds a lot to our team, especially with our new power coach Andre Russell. Very nice to have a young all-rounder. We know what he does with bat and ball. - Jackpot for uncapped Indians - Green, 26, becomes the third most expensive player in the IPL, after India's Rishabh Pant and Shreyas Iyer. He has scored 707 runs in 29 IPL matches for five-time winners Mumbai Indians and defending champions Royal Challengers Bengaluru. He missed the 2025 edition with a back injury but is currently playing in the Ashes against England. Five-time champions Chennai Super Kings made a splash with when they bought uncapped Indians Prashant Veer and Kartik Sharma for 142 million rupees each. The duo's value jumped from their base price of 3 million rupees to become joint-holders of the record for costliest uncapped players in IPL. Another uncapped Indian Auqib Nabi -- an up and coming fast bowler from Indian-administered Kashmir -- went for 28 times over his base price for 84 million rupees to Delhi Capitals. Delhi got lucky landing explosive South African batter David Miller for his base price of 20 million. At that price it's an absolute steal for Delhi Capitals, India's spin great Anil Kumble said on JioStar. Overall, it's a genius move by Delhi Capitals to add experience -- something they were missing last season. Mumbai brought wicketkeeper-batter Quinton de Kock for the 10 million rupees the South African had picked as his base price. Australian Jake Fraser-McGurk, England's Jonny Bairstow and New Zealand batter Devon Conway went unsold. The business value of the world's richest cricket tournament was estimated earlier this year at $18.5 billion, by US investment bank Houlihan Lokey.

Ministers letter of resignation should come to me, not CM: West Bengal Governor
NEW DELHI: West Bengal Governor C V Ananda Bose said on Tuesday that he was yet to receive official correspondence from the Mamata government about Arup Biswas regisnation. The constitution stipulates that the resignation of a minister and reallocation of portfolios should be done with the approval of the governor. I am waiting for official correspondence from the government, he told reporters in New Delhi. He added that people made many demands in the case of mismanagement at the Lionel Messi event, including immediate resignation of the state sports minister, who was there at the event on the fateful day. First, through a representative of the Lok Bhavan and, then, in a letter, an advisory was given to the government that the sports minister and those responsible candidly admit their vicarious liability in the matter and resign. Also, an inquiry is needed to establish responsibility of those who committed lapses, Bose said. He also said there was specific, perceptible, and systemic failure in managing the event. It is surprising that a metropolis like Kolkata does not have standard operating procedures for congregation management, he said. The governor demanded an insurance scheme for spectators at such events, with the premium to be paid by organisers.
Mumbai Diary | Blood ties trump power politics in Pawar family
All in blood and family, uncle Ajit Pawar and nephew Rohit Pawar recently flew together in one private jet from Mumbai to Delhi for Sharad Pawars pre-birthday celebration. The duo stayed together, even travelling in one car. The Pawar family not only easily forgot the bitterness but also began to share the missing bond. Supriya Sule tried to rescue Ajit Pawars son, Parth, in the Pune land scam, claiming Parth is innocent and he cannot do anything wrong. Even senior Pawar remained silent on the issue. Ajit Pawar, in a private chat, also instructed his party members not to criticise senior Pawar or his family, indicating the chapters closed. Thackeray brothers share rare family moment Thackeray brothers, Uddhav and Raj, once again displayed public warmth. They appeared together with their sons, Aditya and Amit, at Dr Rahul Borudes wedding reception in Mumbai. Borude is Amit Thackerays brother-in-law. Amit recently married Shivani, the daughter of former Lokpal chairperson Justice Manikrao Khanwilkar. Dr Rahul is the son of noted bariatric surgeon Dr Sanjay Borude. The intimate yet high profile event displayed old family bonds. Aditya was seen playing with Amits son, Kiaan. Both families shared relaxed moments. The timing is crucial. With tough BMC elections ahead, this bonhomie will soon face a serious political test. Amit Shah checkmates Maharashtra BJP plans Maharashtra chief minister Devendra Fadnavis and state BJP president Ravindra Chavan were not keen to carry DCM Eknath Shinde into the local body polls. The leadership planned to cut Shinde to size and expand BJPs solo space. On CMs cue, Ravindra Chavan openly belittled Shinde. He said number two holds no value and hinted at a major post-poll shift. However, Shindes Delhi visit and meeting with Union Home Minister Amit Shah altered the script. State BJP was forced to backtrack. Shinde-led Shiv Sena was accepted as an active ally and offered respectable seats. Shah continues to keep Shinde in good humour, frustrating the state BJP.

Delhi Dialogues | Sustaining high growth gets harder as the base expands
In a wide-ranging interaction at the 30th edition of Delhi Dialogues , Chief Economic Adviser V Anantha Nageswaran challenges prevailing narratives on rural distress, private investment, inequality and data credibility, arguing that Indias policy choices must be judged against global realities rather than static benchmarks. Excerpts: Santwana Bhattacharya: There is a perception of rural economic stress and a call for a major course correction in economic policy. How do you assess the rural economy and the need for policy shifts? I must challenge the premise. The rural distress narrative has reversed post-Covid. Earlier, a K-shaped recovery was used to describe a booming urban economy and a lagging rural one. Today, the same K is invoked to argue that rural India is strong and urban India is weak. The data does not support a stress narrative. Rural real wages are growing positively and accelerating. We see this reflected in strong rural sales of two-wheelers, four-wheelers and tractors. As for course correction, we must recognise the significant policy actions already taken. Less than a year ago, substantial direct tax relief was provided. More recently, major indirect tax relief was announced. The RBI has cut policy rates by 100 basis points and introduced liquidity measures. Since the elections, the government has launched employment-linked incentive schemes, apprenticeships and skilling missions. Household savings are another important indicator. When savings fell below 5 percent of GDP, there was concern. This rose to 5.3% in 2023-24 and, according to the RBI, reached 6% in 2024-25. Financial liabilities have declined while financial assets have increased. In a country as large as India, anecdotes can always be found to support any belief, but the macro data does not point to distress requiring an emergency course correction. Santwana Bhattacharya: Public capital expenditure has driven growth. What will trigger a broad-based private capex cycle? We should rely on data rather than perception. Post-Covid, we now have three years of national income data. The year 2021-22 saw a strong bounce-back. Private capex growth in 2022-23 was reasonable. The disappointment of 2023-24 has disproportionately shaped public perception. Bottom-up data from over 1,700 companies shows that private capex rebounded in 202425. Indias gross fixed capital formation-to-GDP ratio is around 31%. In todays global environment, marked by uncertainty and intense manufacturing competition from China, this is a creditable outcome. Expecting a return to the 35-37% ratios seen during 2003-08 is unrealistic. Developed economies are seeking to onshore production, while Indian firms must invest both at home and abroad to retain markets in the face of Chinese competition. Dipak Mondol: The IMF has given India a C grade for national accounts data quality. This fuels scept icism about high growth numbers. Your take. This is not an elephant in the room, it is a minor issue. The IMF introduced letter grades only in 2024. Indias median rating across all data categories remains a B. The C applies only to national accounts. Growth is measured by comparing like with like over time. The same database, with the same limitations, is used year after year, which makes growth comparisons valid regardless of deficiencies. Issues like base-year revision and the use of a single deflator are well known and are being addressed by the Ministry of Statistics, with improvements expected by 2026. Dipak Mondol: Critics argue that the GDP deflator is too low and inflates real growth. That argument is procedurally flawed. For quarterly GDP estimates, real GDP is estimated first for about 60% of the economy and inflation is added later to derive nominal GDP. It is not a process of deflating a nominal number. Therefore, the criticism doesnt apply to quarterly estimates. Pushpita Dey: The IMF suggests the $5 trillion economy target is slipping. What is your assessment? Nobody, least of all the IMF, has said it is not possible. In fact, the IMFs latest World Economic Outlook projects Indias GDP at $6.6 trillion by 203031. As of March 2025, India stood at $3.9 trillion. Reaching $4 trillion this year requires only about 2.5% growth in dollar terms. Historically, Indias dollar GDP has grown at an average of 8.6% annually over the past three decades. Rupee depreciation may moderate dollar growth this year, but the medium-term trajectory remains intact. Pushpita Dey: How do you justify relaxing Quality Control Orders when cheap Chinese imports remain a concern? Policymaking is about trade-offs and iteration. If Quality Control Orders on intermediate goods make finished products unviable and hurt small and medium enterprises, they must be fine-tuned. Policy is not cast in stone but requires continuous calibration between protecting upstream industry and preserving downstream competitiveness. Arshad Khan: US tariff hikes have affected certain manufacturing sectors. How is the government responding? We have announced targeted relief, including measures to ease cash-flow constraints and support export market diversification. Free trade negotiations with the Gulf, Canada, the UK and the EU continue, while engagement with the US remains ongoing. Industries have adapted by finding alternative markets, and the impact appears milder than initially feared. Amitava Sanyal: When will India become a developed nation? Can 8% growth be sustained? Development is not merely an income threshold. It must be assessed holistically, including well-being, sustainability and liabilities. Sustaining 8 percent growth becomes mathematically harder as the base expands. Even growth that takes India to a $2025 trillion economy by 2050 would be a monumental achievement. The 2047 target is aspirational and depends on nominal growth and exchange rates. Amitava Sanyal: With 800 million people receiving free food rations, what does that say about the economy? That is a question of political economy and I will leave it at that. V V P Sharma: Has inequality increased and are the rich taxed adequately? It depends on the metric. Post-fiscal inequality, after taxes and transfers, presents a different picture, particularly given subsidies on food, power and education. Capital is far more mobile than labour and excessive taxation risks unintended consequences. The objective of public policy should be to expand equality of opportunity. Amitava Sanyal: Why has manufacturings share of GDP remained near 17% despite the PLI push? Chinas massive overcapacity depresses global prices and makes it extremely difficult for other countries to build competitive manufacturing scale. The PLI scheme is helping India gain footholds in strategic sectors, but the challenge remains significant. Preetha Nair: There is fear new labour codes promote a hire-and-fire culture. This debate has existed since the 1990s. Any dynamic system requires freedom of exit to enable entry. The issue is balancing the rights of those who have jobs with those seeking employment, not framing it as a zero-sum conflict. Santwana Bhattacharya: What are the next major reform frontiers? Land-use reform for industry, power distribution reforms and energy transition legislation are critical. We also face challenges from artificial intelligence, climate transition costs and the mental and physical health of young Indians. The deepest reform is building a high-trust society, where credible institutions enable economic relationships beyond kinship networks. Santwana Bhattacharya: Industry leaders argue India needs a stronger R&D push. Is there a plan? The building blocks are in place. The government has committed `1.5 lakh crore over five years through the Anusandhan National Research Foundation and Research and Development Infrastructure Fund for both research and commercialisation. The task now is effective governance and execution to translate funding into innovation.
G-Ram-G bill introduced in LS amid din
NEW DELHI: The Lok Sabha on Tuesday witnessed fierce protests from Opposition members after the government introduced a new bill to replace the Mahatma Gandhi National Rural Employment Guarantee Act. Several Opposition MPs demanded that the new billViksit Bharat Guarantee for Rozgar and Ajeevika Mission (Gramin) (VB-G RAM G) Bill, 2025be sent to a Parliamentary panel. Amid the buzz that the government is determined to clear the bill in the current session, INDIA bloc leaders have decided to meet at Congress president Mallikarjun Kharges chamber at 10.15 am on Wednesday for a strategy session. The Congress has also issued a Whip mandating its MPs to be present in the Lok Sabha for the next three days as VB-G RAM G and other key legislations are likely to come up for consideration and passage. On Tuesday, after introducing VB-G RAM G Bill, Union minister Shivraj Singh Chouhan said the government not only believes in Gandhi but also follows his principles. Leading the attack, Congress MP Priyanka Gandhi Vadra said the bill would eliminate the legal guarantee of employment for rural workers and increase the financial burden on states. She alleged it will give the Centre power to pre-determine the funds and the areas of allocation, thereby ending the demand-based system. Congress MP Shashi Tharoor termed the bill a retrograde step, saying the 40% financial burden on states will lead to delays in wage payments, a reduction in the number of workdays, and ultimately the destruction of the scheme itself. After staging a walkout from the House, the Opposition leaders held a protest at the Mahatma Gandhi statue in the Parliament complex. Separately, in a post on X, Leader of Opposition Rahul Gandhi alleged Prime Minister Narendra Modi had always opposed the ideas of Mahatma Gandhi and had been trying to weaken the rural employment scheme. Modiji has a deep hatred for two things the ideas of Mahatma Gandhi and the rights of the poor, he said.

Japanese Film Festival: Japanese cinema gears up to reach new audiences in city
Japanese films are quietly ruling the world. From Akira Kurosawas enduring influence on global auteurs to Hayao Miyazakis poetic, hand-drawn universes that redefined animation as emotional cinema, Japanese storytelling has travelled far beyond its borders. Today, that legacy finds renewed resonance in India through the Japanese Film Festival (JFF), which continues to strengthen cultural ties through cinema. This years edition of JFF in ooru, starting on Friday, deliberately steps away from a rigid thematic framework. Our goal was simply to bring a wide spectrum of Japanese cinema to India across genres, eras and styles, Kurumi Otake, the director of arts and culture at The Japan Foundation, New Delhi, explains. The intention is to allow Indian audiences to experience the whole of Japanese culture through film, which goes from mainstream entertainment to quiet, introspective dramas, from animation and thrillers to classics and contemporary releases. A still from Petals and Memories The three-day festival will unfold at PVR Nexus, Koramangala, transforming the venue into a meeting point for cinephiles, students and first-time viewers alike. The citys lineup showcases the festivals commitment to diversity, moving fluidly between styles and sensibilities. Titles such as Angry Squad: The Civil Servant and the Seven Swindlers , Akira , Showtime 7 , Petals and Memories , The Boy and The Dog , Teasing Master Takagi-san , 6 Lying University Students , 366 Days and Sunset Sunrise collectively showcase Japanese cinemas ability to balance genre-driven storytelling with emotional subtlety and cultural specificity. In an era dominated by global streaming platforms, JFF is also redefining the relevance of an in-person film festival. While people can watch Japanese films online anytime, what they dont get is the atmosphere of community. A physical festival brings people together in one space, where they react, laugh and feel alongside strangers who love cinema just as much. It also allows audiences to watch films that may never reach Indian streaming platforms but deserve a big-screen moment. For creators and film lovers, this creates a bridge between cultures that algorithms alone cannot build. Streaming gives access, but festivals give connection, Otake notes. A still from Angry Squad And with Japanese pop culture gaining a huge following in India, how does the festival tap into that interest?We include anime and youth-centric titles, because for many Indian viewers, anime is their first entry point into Japanese language and cinema. In some cities, we complement screenings with cosplay-friendly shows or meet-ups with fan communities. This creates a welcoming environment where fans of anime, fashion, or Japanese culture feel like the festival is their space, says Otake, highlighting the festivals collaboration with fan groups, student clubs and cultural communities. Audience response over the years has played a key role in shaping the festivals growth. Viewers have expressed a desire for variety rather than a singular representation of Japanese cinema, encouraging the organisers to expand across genres, cities and formats. Audiences really appreciate range, she adds, noting that this curiosity has helped shape JFF into a more inclusive and culturally intentional event.

FSSAI announces nationwide crackdown on adulteration of milk, paneer, and khoya
NEW DELHI: The Food Safety and Standards Authority of India (FSSAI) on Tuesday directed all states and Union Territories to launch a special nationwide enforcement drive against adulterated milk and milk products, including paneer and khoya. The step was taken amid mounting concerns over consumer health and food safety, official sources said. The directive has been issued under Section 16(5) of the Food Safety and Standards Act, 2006, which empowers the food regulator to take urgent measures in the interest of public health, official sources said. The advisory to the states and UTs follows a spate of recent detections and intelligence inputs pointing to widespread adulteration and misrepresentation of dairy products across several regions. The Special Enforcement Drive against adulteration and misbranding of milk and milk products, including paneer and khoya, has been launched following multiple reports of unsafe, illegally manufactured dairy products posing serious public health risks, official sources said. FSSAI seeks crackdown on misleading sugar-based ORS drinks as sales continue despite ban Under the drive, food safety authorities will conduct intensive inspections of licensed and unlicensed dairy units, draw enforcement samples, verify food business operators (FBO) registrations, and trace sources of adulteration. Strict action, including licence cancellation, seizures, recalls, and closure of illegal units, has also been mandated, official sources added. The FSSAI had carried out similar drives during September-October this year when there was a spike in demand for milk and milk products during the festive time. Food Safety Officers have been asked to test samples of milk, paneer and khoya in accordance with prescribed procedures. States and UTs have been asked to initiate strict enforcement action wherever violations are detected, official sources said. Officials said the move is aimed at reinforcing consumer confidence, preventing food fraud and ensuring the availability of safe and genuine milk products across the country, sources added. FSSAI has also instructed states to ensure real-time reporting on the FOSCOS (Food Safety Compliance System), submit fortnightly enforcement reports, and strengthen inter-state coordination to curb the spread of adulterated milk products, official sources said.
