Digital Desk | New Delhi, Nov 14 (IANS) Rear Admiral Tanguy Botman, Belgian Navy Commander, is on an official visit to India aimed at strengthening bilateral maritime cooperation and further deepening Navy-to-Navy engagements between the two countries, the Ministry of Defence (MoD) said on Saturday. On arrival, Rear Admiral Botman paid homage to the fallen soldiers by laying a wreath at the National War Memorial and was thereafter accorded a ceremonial Guard of Honour at the South Block. During the visit, Rear Admiral Tanguy Botman held discussions with Admiral Krishna Swaminathan, Chief of the Naval Staff, on a range of issues of mutual interest, including maritime security, operational engagements, training, personnel exchanges and collaboration in naval technology. He also interacted with other senior officials to explore avenues for enhancing bilateral cooperation, the Ministry said in a statement. Highlighting the significance of the visit, the MoD said, India and Belgium share longstanding maritime linkages. The visit marks an important milestone in bilateral Navy-to-Navy relations and is expected to provide further impetus to maritime cooperation through strengthened existing engagements and exploration of new avenues for collaboration. In September, Belgian Prime Minister Bart De Wever visited India, accompanied by the Belgian Minister of Defence and Foreign Trade, Theo Francken. During the visit, the two governments signed a letter of intent on defence cooperation providing a formal institutional basis to the growing defence relationship. India also announced the decision to appoint a Defence Attache to Brussels, complementing Belgium's placing a Defence Attache in New Delhi earlier this year. On September 3, Defence Minister Rajnath Singh held a meeting with Francken in New Delhi and reviewed defence ties and defence industrial cooperation. India is a rapidly growing economy and a major military power in the Indo-Pacific. The country is also strategically located along some of the world's most important trade routes. For an open trading nation like Belgium, the security of these sea lanes is vital. At the same time, Europe's security is increasingly interconnected with developments in Asia, Francken had said. Belgian technology for Indian programmes in maritime security is a key area of focus. India wants to strengthen its capabilities in mine countermeasures, autonomous maritime systems, underwater robotics, advanced sensors and the protection of critical infrastructure, including ports, pipelines and subsea data cables.

WPL 2027 Second Half Likely To Move From Brabourne To Wankhede Due To ICC Venue Norms
Vadodara International Cricket Stadium: The second half of the Womens Premier League (WPL) is likely to be moved from the Cricket Club of Indias Brabourne Stadium to the Wankhede Stadium due to the ruling of the International Cricket Council (ICC) on venue exclusivity for its events. Yes, there is a discussion going on about making this happen. It is because the ICC Womens Champions Trophy is happening, and as per ICC protocols, there should be a gap of 15 days for a venue to host the major tournament. So that window will fall in between the WPL second half. If the WPL second half happens in Mumbais CCI, including the final, you wont get that 15-day gap. So that is what the WPL committee is discussing at the moment. As of now, they are into solving it, and once discussions are over, an official word is expected to arrive soon, said a source tracking the development to IANS on Saturday. As per the existing schedule, the fifth edition of the WPL opens on January 14, 2027, in Vadodara, where defending champions and two-time winners Royal Challengers Bengaluru take on Mumbai Indians. Vadodara will host the first 11 of the 22 games till January 24, before the action moves to Mumbai from January 26. The league stage of WPL 2027 ends on February 3. The Eliminator, to be played between the second- and third-placed teams, is slated to happen on February 5, while the table-topper goes straight into the final, to be played on February 7. The inaugural ICC Womens Champions Trophy, a six-team event, runs from February 14 to 28 and will be staged at the CCI in Mumbai and the Vadodara International Cricket Stadium the venues which are currently earmarked for WPL 2027. As per the rules, the ICC takes over the venues roughly three weeks before a global event begins, and keeps the venues under its exclusive control throughout that entire stretch of time. Brabourne Stadium staged the eliminator and final of the 2025 WPL, where Mumbai Indians beat Delhi Capitals by eight runs to win the title for the second time. If the shift in venue happens, it will be the very first time that Wankhede Stadium will host WPL matches.

The top two teams in the standings will progress to the final to be played on February 28. Also Read: Special Cricket Stories Article Source: IANS

IICA convenes stakeholder consultation on future of public policy professionals
Digital Desk | New Delhi, Nov 14 (IANS) The Indian Institute of Corporate Affairs (IICA) has launched an initiative to help define the role of public policy professionals and strengthen capacity-building frameworks at the intersection of business and government, an official statement said on Saturday. The Ministry of Corporate Affairs-backed institution recently convened a stakeholder consultation, bringing together senior government officials, corporate executives, policy experts, academics and industry representatives to examine the evolving responsibilities of public policy and corporate affairs functions within organisations. The discussions focused on how companies engage with policymakers and regulators, the capabilities required for policy professionals and the development of learning pathways aligned with organisational needs and national priorities. Addressing the gathering, IICA Director General and Chief Executive Officer Gyaneshwar Kumar Singh highlighted the importance of sustained engagement between governments and businesses, saying stronger institutional capacity can support more informed policy dialogue and decision-making. Meanwhile, former senior bureaucrats and corporate leaders participating in the consultation called for closer collaboration between regulators and industry, greater predictability in policymaking and development of professionals capable of bridging the public and private sectors. They also noted that public policy functions are increasingly moving beyond traditional government liaison roles and are becoming strategic advisory functions that help organisations assess regulatory developments, manage stakeholder relationships and contribute to policy discussions. The consultation identified a range of competencies required for policy professionals, including an understanding of government decision-making processes, economic analysis, data-driven reasoning, risk assessment and stakeholder management. Notably, experts also highlighted the need to balance corporate objectives with broader public interest considerations. On education and skill development, participants recommended multidisciplinary and case-based training programmes, flexible learning models for working professionals and internship opportunities within government institutions to build practical experience. The event drew more than 50 senior representatives from listed and multinational companies, consulting firms, think tanks, industry associations, academia, civil society organisations and government departments. According to the ministry, the deliberations concluded with a roadmap for collaboration between IICA, industry bodies and academic institutions to support the professionalisation of public policy and corporate affairs roles, reflecting their growing importance in shaping corporate strategy and contributing to national development goals.

Indians Praful Hinge: India fast bowler Harshal Patel is likely to move to Gujarat Titans (GT) from Sunrisers Hyderabad (SRH) through a trade deal ahead of the 2027 IPL retention deadline on November 17. According to a report by Cricinfo on Saturday, the two franchises have settled on a cash-only deal worth Rs 4 crore, with the amount to be taken off GTs auction purse. That amount is only half of the Rs 8 crore SRH spent on him at the 2025 IPL mega auction. For GT, the interest is hardly sudden. They chased him in 2024 and dropped out at Rs 10.5 crore, with Punjab Kings finally securing him for Rs 11.75 crore. GT returned to the bidding for Patel in the 2025 auction as well, but stepped aside when the price reached Rs 6.5 crore. The move would also bring Patel back to the state where his roots lie. The right-arm pacer hails from Ahmedabad and moved back to represent Gujarat in domestic cricket from the 2025/26 season. At GT, who won the IPL in 2022, Patel will join Kagiso Rabada, Mohammed Siraj, Prasidh Krishna, Jason Holder and Ashok Sharma in the seam-bowling department. In IPL 2025, Patel picked up 16 wickets in 13 games, but in the last season he played just five times and did not take a wicket, while conceding 10.82 an over. The team leaned on uncapped Indians Praful Hinge and Sakib Hussain instead to lead their fast-bowling charge. Patel, who played 25 T20Is for India and picked 29 scalps, has two IPL Purple Caps against his name - from 2021 with Royal Challengers Bengaluru (RCB), where he picked 32 wickets, and 2024 with Punjab Kings (PBKS), where he took 24 wickets. GT would be his fifth franchise after being with RCB, SRH, PBKS and Delhi Capitals (DC) since his IPL debut in 2012. In IPL, Harshal has played 124 matches and picked 151 wickets, with an average of 24.68, economy rate of 8.92 and best individual figures of 5-27. Previously, SRH, the IPL 2016 winners, brought in left-arm pacer T Natarajan from DC and then got Khaleel Ahmed and Nathan Ellis from Chennai Super Kings (CSK) in a four-player exchange.
