Panchayat fame Anurag Saikia reveals the inspiration behind his new album Pardesi
Digital Desk | Mumbai, Oct 7 (IANS) Music composer and singer Anurag Saikia, who is known for recreating the viral song Hind Ke Sitara from Panchayat 3, has said that his new album Pardesi is an outcome of his fascination with the stories, sounds and emotions that exist within Rajasthan. The album consists of 5 songs that explore love, longing, folklore, community and the contradictions of modern life, all through a distinctly Rajasthani lens. Talking about the album, Anurag Saikia said in a statement, This project came from my fascination with the stories, sounds and emotions that exist within Rajasthan. He further mentioned, I wanted to explore different sides of the region, its love stories, folklore, humour, relationships and even the way we look at life today, without making the music feel like a recreation of the past. Each song has its own character, but they are all connected by this idea of being rooted in something real while finding a contemporary voice. For me, it has been about keeping the soil in the soul, while letting the sound evolve. The album features Badeela, a slow-burning love story built around fleeting glances, intimate details and the quiet transformation of falling deeply in love. Saajan sung by Divya Kumar, captures the ache of a newly married woman separated from her beloved, moving from loneliness and longing towards an emotional reunion. Maaru, inspired by Rajasthans timeless love folklore, traces two lovers bound by destiny but tested by distance and circumstance. The final song on the album is Sheeshmahal, a grand romantic promise where love turns imagination into extravagance, building palaces, chasing dreams, and giving your beloved the world. The album has been released under the label of BL/UR a new pop label by Believe India.

RBI hikes repo rate by 25 basis points to 5.5 pc; changes stance to 'calibrated tightening'
Mumbai, Oct 07: After nearly three-and-half years, the Reserve Bank of India on Wednesday raised key benchmark policy rate by 25 basis points to 5.5 per cent in a bid to tame rising inflation amid continuing West Asia crisis. With the rate hike, home loans, vehicle loans and corporate loans would become expensive and EMI for existing borrowers would also go up. A hike in the short-term lending rate (repo) by the RBI marks a reversal from its previous policy action. The last repo rate hike was in February 2023, when the RBI raised the rate by 0.25 per cent to 6.50 per cent. It kept the rate unchanged through 2023-24 before beginning its rate-cut cycle in 2025. Announcing the bi-monthly monetary policy, RBI Governor Sanjay Malhotra said the Monetary Policy Committee (MPC) unanimously decided to raise the policy repo rate by 25 basis points. Meanwhile, retail inflation rose to 4.82 per cent in August as compared to 4.45 per cent in the previous month. MPC changed its stance to 'calibrated tightening' from 'neutral' and also underscored that rate cut is unlikely in the near term given the current conditions. Besides, MPC must have taken into account the recent actions by central banks of developed nations especially the US Federal Reserve and the European Central Bank. Last month, the US Fed effected a 25 basis points rate hike to rein in inflation brought on by spiralling oil prices and other factors. Prior to the Fed, the European Central Bank too raised its key interest rate by 25 basis points.

Laxmans Presence In Senior Men's Selection Meetings Set To Be A Norms: Saikia
BCCI Secretary Devajit Saikia: BCCI Secretary Devajit Saikia said the Centre of Excellence (CoE) head VVS Laxmans presence in the senior men's national selection committee meetings is set to be a norm going forward, adding that this decision was taken during the comprehensive review meeting held last month at its headquarters in Mumbai. In a picture shared by the BCCI on their social media accounts on Tuesday evening, Laxman was seen in the senior men's selection meeting held at the ACA Stadium in Guwahati. The meeting also featured Saikia and senior men's selection panel members Pragyan Ojha, SS Das, Ajay Ratra and RP Singh for picking Indias squads for the five-game T20I series in New Zealand and the three-match red-ball A series against New Zealand A. VVS Laxman was present in the meeting on Tuesday to ensure that there is no miscommunication between the selectors and the CoE while picking the squads. He is the head of cricket at the BCCI CoE in Bengaluru and henceforth will attend all senior mens selection meetings. He has all the information about the players injuries, and to avoid any miscommunication, Laxman should attend the mens selection meetings going forward. This was decided after the review meeting held in Mumbai last month (where Laxman was in attendance), Saikia told IANS in a statement on Wednesday. Recent selections in the mens teams have occasionally been marred by ambiguity regarding player availability, with players named in squads only to be pulled out later due to them failing to achieve full fitness in time for the tour. It is not about transparency. In fact, it is about ensuring that the selectors get complete and accurate information about the players and their fitness status so that they can make the right decisions, added Saikia. Recent selections in the mens teams have occasionally been marred by ambiguity regarding player availability, with players named in squads only to be pulled out later due to them failing to achieve full fitness in time for the tour.

Dhir made a dream debut as he picked up three wickets with his off-spin to finish with impressive figures of 3-31, while Kuldeep Yadav took 2/33 as India, after opting to bowl, restricted the West Indies to 171. In response, India slipped to 35/2 inside four overs before captain Shreyas Iyer took control of the innings with an unbeaten 100 came off just 42 balls, combining with Ishan Kishan (37) to rebuild the chase before shifting through the gears in spectacular fashion. I have been bowling for quite some time; it is not as if I have just started now. In the IPL, because of the impact-player rule, you dont see me bowling as much. But it is not that I havent bowled. I have bowled a lot and have good experience here as well. Hopefully, I will continue doing well in the future, Dhir said in the post-match press conference after helping India bowl out West Indies for 171 in the first T20I here. Making his T20I debut just days after his ODI debut on October 27, Dhir returned 3/31 from his four overs to become the third Indian spinner to claim three wickets on T20I debut. He said the key to his performance was sticking to a simple plan after seeing Axar Patel extract turn by bowling slower through the surface. I saw Axar Bhai bowling earlier, and he was bowling a little slower and getting some turn. That was in my mind - if I bowled a little slower, there would be good grip from the wicket, and I could get them out. So I just stuck to my plans and kept things basic. I think I got a good result from that, Dhir said. The 25-year-old, who has been used primarily as a batting all-rounder in the IPL, stressed that bowling has never been an afterthought in his development. Again, I will say that even if you havent seen me bowling, I have been bowling as much as I have since I came here and I have practised just as much before this. It is not as if, as a batting all-rounder or bowling all-rounder, I have neglected one aspect. Yes, my batting is a plus point, but at the same time I am working just as hard on my bowling, he said. Dhir also revealed that the four-over spell was nothing unusual for him, despite the impact-player rule restricting his bowling opportunities in the IPL. Whether I have to bowl four overs, two overs or even one-day cricket, where I have bowled six or seven overs, it is normal for me. I just have to focus on my plans and try to execute them, he said. His breakthrough came at a crucial stage after West Indies had recovered from 44/3, with skipper Shai Hope scoring 52 and Sherfane Rutherford making 56. Dhir dismissed Hope immediately after his 13th T20I fifty before removing Romario Shepherd and Shamar Springer to finish with 3/31. Asked about his first wicket on debut, Dhir said the milestone mattered, but execution remained his priority. Obviously, when you get your first wicket, it is an achievement for you, but at the same time I was trying to execute my plans. The idea on that wicket was that we could bowl a little slower, because you were getting more help from the surface, he said. His rapid rise has seen him make his ODI and T20I debuts within days of each other, but Dhir said the IPL had helped him prepare for the international stage. The IPL prepares you for international cricket. There is a lot of competition there as well. So, if you are playing in the IPL, especially for a team like Mumbai Indians, in my opinion you are already preparing yourself for a bigger level. So when you come here, you dont feel that much pressure, he said. Dhir, however, is still waiting for his chance to showcase his batting. I am still waiting for my batting. I will be happy if I get the chance to bat, but I am happier that I contributed to the team and that the team won, he said. He also recalled the emotional moment when he first learned about his India call-up while at a Ranji Trophy camp. Obviously, it was a great feeling when I got the call. I was in the Ranji Trophy camp at the PCA. Our tournament had just finished and it had gone very well for me and for our team. It was a surreal feeling. I was with my friends, so I immediately called my father. He got emotional and I got a little emotional too, Dhir said. He also recalled the emotional moment when he first learned about his India call-up while at a Ranji Trophy camp. Also Read: Special Cricket Stories Article Source: IANS

Sensex, Nifty trade lower in early deals ahead of RBI policy decision
Digital Desk | Mumbai, Oct 7 (IANS) Domestic equity benchmarks traded lower in early deals on Wednesday as investors remained cautious ahead of the Reserve Bank of India's monetary policy decision with global cues also mixed. Sensex declined by as much as 462.44 points or 0.63 per cent to 72,605.37, while Nifty fell 175.65 points or 0.77 per cent to 22,600. Earlier in the day, the headline indices, the BSE Sensex and the Nifty 50, opened at 72,965.38 and 22,690.45, respectively. Among sectoral indices, Nifty Consumer Durables was the biggest loser, falling 1.55 per cent, followed by Nifty Metal, which declined 1.34 per cent and Nifty Auto, down more than 1 per cent. Nifty PSU Bank fell 0.94 per cent, Nifty Oil & Gas declined 0.82 per cent, while Nifty Realty and Nifty FMCG dropped up to 0.7 per cent. Healthcare and pharmaceutical stocks were among the few gainers. Nifty Pharma rose 0.16 per cent and Nifty500 Healthcare edged up. However, Nifty Media advanced 0.74 per cent. Market participants are also watching crude oil prices, foreign portfolio flows, the rupee and the central bank's assessment of the growth-inflation outlook. The 558 point rally in the Nifty from last Thursday's low level has come as a relief for investors. But this rally will face headwinds, constraining a sustained up move. Brent crude is back above $101 and there are no signs of any reversal in FPI outflows. Domestic liquidity and expectations of good Q2 numbers are supporting the market, said analysts. The focus of the market attention today will be on the monetary stance and the message from the RBI Governor. A 25 bp hike in policy rates is inevitable and already discounted by the market. What is not discounted is the monetary stance and the central bank's view on the emerging growth-inflation dynamics, according to them. The market's response to the policy would be influenced by the RBI Governor's comments on the emerging economic scenario, the experts said and noted that the interest-rate differential between India and the US was at very low levels. A rate hike to preempt further capital flight has become unavoidable in the context of rising US yields and rising dollar. Therefore, stabilisation of the rupee will also be on top of the RBI Governor's mind even though the focus will be on growth-inflation dynamics, experts said. Technical analysts remained constructive despite expectations of near-term volatility. While yesterday's relief rally stalled on approach to 22,800 on anticipated lines, we are hopeful of extension in uptrend with eyes on 22,930 or 23,100-23,220. That said, dips are to be expected today. While inability to float above 22,690 could bring in volatility, we would remain hopeful of resumption of upswings as long as dips are restricted to 22,574. And, as maintained yesterday, we do not expect a collapse or a stretch beyond 22,050 for now, the expert said. Moreover, Asian equities traded mixed on Wednesday as investors weighed Wall Street's latest performance, elevated US Treasury yields and ongoing geopolitical tensions. US equities closed higher on Tuesday as oil prices stabilised and Treasury yields retreated, easing some recent market pressures as investors turned their attention towards the upcoming third-quarter earnings season. In addition, crude oil prices advanced on Wednesday as traders balanced potential supply disruptions from a storm approaching key US production areas and Houthi attacks on Saudi Arabia against rising crude exports from the Middle East.

PMs Gulmarg cheese gift reminds Kashmir of its Mozzarella treasures
Srinagar, Oct 6:Gulmarg cheese was part of the assortment of gifts that Prime Minister Narendra Modi presented to Swiss President Guy Parmelin during his visit to India earlier this week. The name Gulmarg and cheese ring a bell about the rich cheesemaking tradition of Kashmir, sustained by pastoral communities over generations, yet still unorganised. The Gulmarg cheese is named so because of its snowy white appearance that reminded its makers of Kashmirs famed meadow in winters. Made by Eleftheria, the cheese is snowy cheese has a thick fluffy rind, full of earthy flavors, the award-winning company told Greater Kashmir. It is not sourced from Gulmarg or based on Gulmarg style of cheese, but an artisanal product, along with other cheese that the Mumbai-based cheese makers are famous for. However, the international attention around the name Gulmarg cheese also shines a light on Kashmirs traditional cheesemaking culture. Developed over generations by its pastoral communities, this tradition still survives in scattered pockets of mountains and valley. From Kalari to Kudan the traditional cheeses made by Gujjar and Bakarwal communities form part of a largely unorganised food heritage. Kalari is one of the best-known varieties here. This dense, elastic cheese is traditionally prepared from buffalo, cow or even goat milk. The cheese develops a crisp exterior, while the insides become soft and molten when heated. This cheese is made in pastoral households and developed as a way of preserving a highly perishable product. Qudan is traditionally associated with goat milk but is also made of cows milk. It is another important piece on Kashmirs cheese platter. It is chunky, granular, with musty flavour. It is usually cooked with milk in Kashmiri households and also finds its way into salads of connoisseurs. The production of these traditional cheeses in Kashmir remains largely decentralized, taking place mostly at household level. It is linked to seasonal pastoral movement and depends on the availability of milk. Much of the trading takes place while the livestock moves from a place to another and is seasonal. No comparable organised supply chain connects traditional producers with larger markets. The issue of standardisation, processing, storage, transportation, packaging and marketing have remained unattended to. The traditional Himalayan cheeses have thus remained mostly confined in the local communities, unable to move beyond their areas of production. On smaller scales, artisanal cheesemakers in Kashmir have worked with local pastoral communities to source milk and produce Kalari. A Dutch entrepreneur in Pahalgam has also demonstrated how Kudan and Kalari can be sold in bigger markets, to high-end consumers. These are now sold on shelves with the same status and liking as Gouda and Cheddar. However, these efforts are relatively small compared with the scale of Kashmirs dairy economy. In an episode of Mann ki Baat, PM Modi called Kalari cheese the Mozzarella of Kashmir. Can his Gulmarg cheese gift inspire a cheese story in J&K? By preserving the traditional character and improving hygiene and shelf life, Kashmir cheese can reach reliable markets. This can ensure more livelihood opportunities and greater share of the value to communities that have kept the tradition alive.
