Gold rebounds Rs 1,600; silver rallies Rs 5,000 on US-Iran deal hopes
New Delhi, May 29: Gold prices rebounded by Rs 1,600 to Rs 1.62 lakh per 10 grams in the national capital on Friday, tracking firm global trends amid optimism over a preliminary US-Iran deal and expectations of seasonal demand in the domestic market. According to local marketmen, the yellow metal of 99.9 per cent purity appreciated Rs 1,600 to Rs 1,62,900 per 10 grams (inclusive of all taxes) from Wednesday's closing level of Rs 1,61,300 per 10 grams. Silver prices also strengthened sharply, jumping Rs 5,000 to Rs 2,74,700 per kilogram (inclusive of all taxes). The white metal had settled at Rs 2,69,700 per kg in the previous session. Bullion markets remained closed on Thursday on account of Eid-ul-Azha. Gold and silver prices have edged higher as markets assess US-Iran ceasefire developments and the US Federal Reserve's interest rate outlook following recent inflation data, Hareesh V, Head of Commodity Research, Geojit Investments Ltd, said. The precious metal prices in the domestic market remained firm amid expectations of seasonal demand, he added. We do not foresee significant selling pressure in the near term, as underlying fundamentals continue to provide support. Silver is also likely to track gold's trend, aided by both safe-haven demand and industrial outlook, Hareesh said. In the international markets, spot gold gained nearly 1 per cent to USD 4,530.72 per ounce, while silver was trading flat at USD 75.52 per ounce. Spot gold rose nearly 1 per cent in the overseas trade as talks of a preliminary deal between the US and Iran have reduced downside pressure on the yellow metal. However, lack of details of the deal will keep it range-bound, Praveen Singh, Head of Commodities at Mirae Asset ShareKhan, said. According to reports, the US and Iran have agreed to a preliminary understanding that would extend the ceasefire by 60 days. As part of the proposed memorandum of understanding, Iran is expected to normalise traffic through the Strait of Hormuz within 30 days, while both countries are likely to continue discussions on contentious issues, including Tehran's nuclear stockpile and uranium enrichment, during the ceasefire period. However, the final text of the agreement is still awaited, with neither US President Donald Trump nor Iran's Supreme Leader Mojtaba Khamenei publicly commenting on the deal so far. According to Jateen Trivedi, VP Research Analyst - Commodity and Currency, LKP Securities, market participants are closely watching developments surrounding the proposed US-Iran agreement and awaiting further comments from Trump, which could provide the next major trigger for bullion prices.

IPL 2026: LSG Accepts Rishabh Pants Resignation As Side's Captain After Tenth-place Finish
Lucknow Super Giants: Lucknow Super Giants (LSG) on Friday confirmed that wicketkeeper-batter Rishabh Pant has stepped down from captaincy duties with immediate effect, and the same has been accepted by the franchise after the side had a tenthplace finish in IPL 2026. After leaving Delhi Capitals, a side he led before in the IPL, Pant took over as LSGs skipper after the franchise roped him in for a record-breaking Rs 27 crore in the mega auction held in 2024. But under him, LSG endured backtoback disappointing campaigns - the side finished seventh last season and slipped further this year by ending at the bottom spot of the points table with just four wins from 14 games. Rishabh approached the franchise with this request and we have respectfully accepted it. These decisions are never easy. We are grateful for everything Rishabh has brought to this dressing room as captain. Our focus now is on the collective - rebuilding and restructuring to reach the best standards, said Tom Moody, the sides global director of cricket, in a statement on Friday. Under his captaincy, LSG managed ten wins but suffered 18 defeats across two seasons. With the bat, Pant, once amongst the most explosive performers in the league, struggled to replicate that form for LSG. Across two years, he scored 581 runs at a strike rate of 135.74, numbers way below his career benchmarks. A franchise official told IANS on Friday that Pants decision to relinquish captaincy just six days after the sides campaign got over isnt a huge surprise, considering that he expressed this desire to leave the top role after the season got over for LSG on a disappointing note. Rishabh was very clear about leaving as LSGs captain right after the tournament ended. From his perspective, the vision he had for the team as the captain, it just wasnt translating into reality. Also, it was becoming too much for him to balance things as captain while his primary skillsets, especially his batting form, wasnt at its best. Its also understood that Rishabh told the LSG coaching staff and management that it would be selfish of him to continue as captain after yet another disappointing season. Plus, he wants to prioritise his batting in the longer run, considering he is not an automatic pick in the Indian side in white-ball formats, said the official. Pant himself admitted during the season that too many minds in the leadership group had complicated matters for him as a leader. Pants future as the LSG skipper was under doubts when Moody had said after losing their final league game to Punjab Kings that the franchise will consider a leadership reset Its also understood that Rishabh told the LSG coaching staff and management that it would be selfish of him to continue as captain after yet another disappointing season. Plus, he wants to prioritise his batting in the longer run, considering he is not an automatic pick in the Indian side in white-ball formats, said the official. Also Read: Live Cricket Score There was also this feeling within Rishabh that he let down LSG fans too as a leader, and that weighed heavily on him as well. So, ultimately, it was a mixed bag of factors behind him leaving the captaincy and subsequently, the franchise also accepted his desire to let go of the leadership armband and allow Rishabh to concentrate on his batting, added the official.

NEET paper leak: SC stresses on accountability; govt says PM personally supervising situation
New Delhi, May 29: We should not disappoint our youngsters, the Supreme Court on Friday said while stressing that the real problem relating to medical entrance examination NEET-UG would not stop till actual accountability arises. Solicitor General Tushar Mehta told the apex court that the government is seriously concerned about the concerns of the youths and Prime Minister Narendra Modi is personally supervising the situation so that here is no lacunae. Mehta told a bench of Justices P S Narasimha and Alok Aradhe that some new mechanisms have been put in place for the NEET-UG retest scheduled for June 21. The real problem won't stop till actual accountability arises, the bench observed. The top court was hearing pleas, including the one seeking a direction to replace or restructure the National Testing Agency (NTA), which is responsible for conducting the NEET-UG, with a robust and autonomous body to conduct the medical entrance examination. The bench said it is actually very traumatic if something like this happens, not just for the students, but also for their families. Accountability will be effective only when you know on whose shoulders, which individual shoulders, the responsibility lies, it said. The top law officer said, The buck must stop somewhere. Mehta said the issue relates to youths and the government is seriously concerned about their concerns. Some new mechanisms are also put in place for the June 21 examination. It may not be appropriate to divulge what is there, otherwise the very purpose will be frustrated. It is being monitored at the highest possible executive level, he said. The prime minister personally is supervising this so that there is no lacunae, Mehta said. The bench cited the example of the Union Public Service Commission (UPSC) and said there was never a situation like paper leak in the examinations conducted by the commission and the NTA needs to learn from other institutions. It is actually very traumatic if something like this happens, not just for the students, but also their families and everybody, the bench said, adding, They invest so much of emotion. The bench also highlighted the problem that most of the institutions were ad-hoc. So much so, that you will have the best of the officers working and everybody will depend on that. It is the phenomenon everywhere in our country, it said. It is not the individual who has the capability, it is the institution which has the capability. That is what you need to prepare, the bench said. It noted that pursuant to its May 25 order, Director (Legal) of the NTA has filed an affidavit. We will go through your affidavit and we will keep monitoring it for sometime, the bench said. It also noted that Dr K Radhakrishnan, who is a former chairman of the ISRO and presently working in honorary capacity as the chairman of the high-powered steering committee on NTA Reforms, has also filed an affidavit indicating the implementation of the recommendations of the committee and the future course of action. The bench asked the Centre to file an affidavit indicating how and in which manner the process of conduct and conclusion of the examination, year after year, will be done. It said the Centre would also indicate the method by which an institutional memory through continuity of human resource, institutional expertise through deployment of specialised personnel and institutional plurality by composition of experts is put in place. The endeavour is to ensure that NTA would have the wherewithal, physical as well as intellectual, to ensure that no incidents such as the 2024 or 2026 examinations occur, the bench said. It said the affidavit be filed by the Centre within six weeks and posted the matter for hearing in the second week of July. During the hearing, the bench asked Radhakrishnan, who was present in the court, how much monitoring of the implementation has happened. Also tell us how did this failure occur, the bench asked, adding, Despite the monitoring on the basis of the high-powered committee's recommendation, if this incident has happened, then there is something wrong with the original recommendation because it did not conceive of a situation which would have arisen. Radhakrishnan said many of the recommendations were initiated already. He said in 2025, NEET-UG was conducted almost satisfactorily and there were a couple of incidents of power failure in some of the examination centres. On May 12, the NTA cancelled the National Eligibility cum Entrance Test (Undergraduate), or NEET, held on May 3 amid allegations of paper leak. A re-examination has been scheduled for June 21. The paper leak allegations are under investigation by the CBI. After the questions of NEET-UG were allegedly leaked in 2024, the top court had refused to cancel the test but passed various directions aimed at tackling paper leaks and also a criterion for cancelling public exams. While hearing the pleas on May 25, the top court observed it's sad that the NTA has not learnt lessons from the earlier NEET paper leak. It had sought the response of the Centre, NTA and CBI on pleas for the replacement of the testing agency with a robust and autonomous body to conduct the medical entrance exam. The top court had issued notice on the pleas, including the one filed by the Federation of All India Medical Association through lawyer Tanvi Dubey.

PM Modi himself monitoring NEET-UG paper leak issue: Centre informs Supreme Court
New Delhi [India], May 29 : The Supreme Court on Friday directed the Centre Ministry of Education, to file a separate affidavit detailing the devising of a mechanism by which the process of conducting and concluding NEET examinations would be institutionalised by the NTA on a year-to-year basis. A bench of Justices PS Narasimha and Alok Aradhe said that the affidavit must explain how institutional memory and expertise would be developed within the National Testing Agency (NTA) through the deployment of specialised personnel and a broad-based composition of experts. The Court observed that the endeavour must be to ensure that the NTA possesses the necessary physical as well as intellectual wherewithal to prevent the recurrence of incidents such as the NEET examination controversies of 2024 and 2026. The affidavit has been directed to be filed within six weeks. During the hearing, the Court noted the response (affidavits) filed by the NTA and the Chairman of the High Powered Committee, Dr K Radhakrishnan. Notably, Solicitor General Tushar Mehta, representing the Centre, informed the Court that the Prime Minister himself is monitoring the issue. The bench, however, questioned how the alleged failure occurred despite regular monitoring and meetings by the High Powered Committee. Have you been having regular meetings? How did this failure occur despite all the monitoring? the Court asked. Dr K Radhakrishnan and counsels representing the NTA responded that the High Powered Committee had made around 60 recommendations, many of which had already been implemented. The Court was informed that certain procedural reforms are still pending and would be implemented before the rescheduled NEET-UG examination. Justice Narasimha, however, expressed concern over the effectiveness of the monitoring mechanism. Then there is something wrong with the original recommendations, or there has not been effective monitoring. How did this occur? the bench observed. The Court also raised concerns regarding accountability within the NTA system. Accountability has not been put in place. Accountability would be effective only when you identify on whose shoulders the responsibility lies, the bench observed. The Court further remarked that diffused obligation ultimately results in responsibility being shifted generally towards the government. Stressing the need for institutional reforms, the bench observed, Institutional reforms, not individuals. Irrespective of people coming or going, there must be something that evolves within the system. The Court also highlighted the emotional impact of repeated examination controversies on students and families. It is actually very traumatic. Not just for students but for families. There is an investment of years of study and emotions, the bench observed. The Court further remarked that India has created world-class institutions such as the UPSC and said similar institutional strength and credibility must be developed within the NTA. In its order, the Court recorded that pursuant to its earlier directions, the Director of the NTA has filed an affidavit indicating the manner in which the recommendations of the High Powered Committee were being implemented in relation to the conduct of NEET-UG 2026. The Court also noted that Dr K Radhakrishnan, who heads the steering committee, had filed a separate affidavit detailing the future course of action. The Court said it would continue monitoring the matter for some further time and listed the matter to be heard in the second week of July. (ANI)
