Rahul Gandhi appears in UP court, calls defamation case against him 'cheappublicity'
Sultanpur: Congress leader Rahul Gandhi appeared before an MP-MLA court here on Friday in a defamation case against him and said it was filed to gain cheap publicity. According to Gandhi's lawyer Kashi Prasad Shukla, the Congress MP, who appeared before Special Judge Shubham Verma, said he never made a statement against anyone that could lead to a case of defamation. Local BJP leader Vijay Mishra filed the complaint on August 4, 2018, against Rahul Gandhi for his alleged objectionable comments against Amit Shah at a press conference in Bengaluru in May of that year during the Karnataka elections. The complainant referred to Gandhi's comment that the BJP claims to believe in honest and clean politics but has a party president who is an accused in a murder case. Shah was BJP president when Gandhi made the comment. About four years before Gandhi's remark, a special CBI court in Mumbai discharged Shah in a 2005 fake encounter case when he was a minister of state for home in Gujarat. The MP-MLA court in Sultanpur fixed August 12 as the next date of hearing in the matter when the statement of the petitioner will be recorded. Sources said Gandhi need not appear in the court on that date. Advocate Santosh Kumar Pandey, representing Mishra, said Gandhi has recorded his statement before the judge and evidence will be presented on August 12. On his way back to Lucknow after attending the court proceedings, Gandhi stopped at the shop of a cobbler on the outskirts of Sultanpur and spoke to him about his problems. Gandhi halted his 'Bharat Jodo Nyay Yatra' in Amethi on February 20 and appeared in the court which granted him bail. On Friday morning, Congress workers gathered at the civil court in Sultanpur in large numbers for Gandhi's arrival. The Rae Bareli MP appeared before the special judge in court number 15 and recorded his statement. The court premises resembled a fortress with a heavy presence of security personnel.

Crisis man Charith Asalanka takes up new challenge
CHENNAI: Charith Asalanka is one of the likeable stars in the cricketing world. The Sri Lankan is the kind of guy who comes across as polite, composed and, at times, awfully kind, because he actually is all of those things. So much that even if you are rooting for his opponents, you would want Asalanka to do well. If you are his teammate, you know that there is someone who will celebrate and enjoy your success more than you do; that you are going to get a hug from Asalanka every time you contribute to the team on the field... that when things get ugly with a top-order collapse, you have the left-hander to bank on. In a team that's been through one turmoil after another whether it is on or off the field Asalanka, in the past three years, has been the one constant source of joy. His rise, since his debut in 2021, is nothing short of phenomenal. From being an inconsistent No 3 batter to quickly transforming into a reliable finisher at No 5, he really has come a long way. He has been, in many ways, Sri Lanka's crisis man. The latest crisis he has been assigned to resolve post the uninspiring T20 World Cup performance is the top leadership role to take the team forward. The good thing about this challenge is that he likes it, and he wants to excel at it. What also gives him the confidence that he could do so is that he has always been a leader and has led Sri Lanka at U19 levels. He truly believes that he can rally his teammates and rise to the occasion. But he also knows he has to lead by example. Yes, it is a challenge for me, Asalanka tells this daily in a virtual interaction facilitated by Sony Sports Network. I believe that I can do this, but it's a new challenge, a new chapter in my life. I just got it as an opportunity to give something for my country. So I think it's really, really, really important to get the boys together, and raise their morale and their confidence as the captain, he adds. Shubman Gill is a quick learner and always wants to improve: Gujarat Titans head coach Ashish Nehra Players' confidence and support are something Asalanka enjoys. After all, as said earlier, he is one of the most likeable personalities there is. He has always been individually talking to players, wanting to ensure they give their 100 per cent. Only this time he will be doing it as a captain. Now, this is where his famous hug comes into picture. Asalanka knows the importance of that hug he gives his players on the field, and it has taken more prominence now that he's the captain. That hug is very important as a captain. Where it came from.. when I was watching cricket matches as a child, I used to watch Australians celebrate. The way they celebrate and shake in the head. I just love that. And I used to do the same. It's very important. When things are not going our way, that's the time the captain has to say something and lift their morale. Captain has to lift their confidence. So I think those kinds of little things can make a difference. Personally, I believe that a captain can change their momentum, change their feelings. And that's why I believe those kinds of little things will make a big difference in games. Now, Asalanka is not all about morale and feeling positive. There's more to him, especially as a captain. He is pragmatic and puts forward an interesting outlook to his job that a cricket team is a bunch of players and their individual performance is what he needs. I just want to make a good, professional individual performance. That's my main goal, he says, before adding, o create a good team, we should have good individual players. Only then, we can become a consistent side. So, I'm talking to individuals, me and the coaches are having chats and (then) we bring in players individually to discuss what their needs, what we think about them. So I want to bring good professional cricketers up to the level. So far I have a few, but I want to make a few more to bring this team really up. The first challenge he is up against are the T20 WC-winners, India. They, too, are a team in transition, and have a new captain and coach Suryakumar Yadav and Gautam Gambhir, respectively. Asalanka knows what to expect from them and is ready for it. My first goal is to win the series as always. We all know that they have a good side, good individual players. So it will be challenging for us. But as a captain, I want to make sure that my players are doing well and their mindset is up to the mark to challenge India.

Dilip Cherian | Why the long silence over UPSC chiefs resignation?
The buzz about UPSC chairman Dr Manoj Soni stepping down popped up after a scandal involving an IAS probationers fake certificate. But the word on the street and in babu corridors is that Mr Soni handed in his resignation about a month ago. If true, it means his exit wasnt directly related to the fake certificate mess with Puja Khedkar and others. So, what gives? After all, Mr Soni is from Gujarat and has been regarded as very close to the Prime Minister and home minister all this while. Something is surely amiss. Some folks in the know say that Mr Soni, whos big on spirituality, wants to dive into social work and spiritual activities. Sure, he has his own beliefs, like anyone else, but hes also seen as a guy with real substance. Insiders mention that he often sticks to his guns, even when it means going against the powers that be. Still, its strange that this major news took so long to come out. Maybe its because the administration keeps a tight lid on things. Or maybe the media was too busy with the government formation and the Parliament session. Theres also the chance that the timing isnt just a coincidence his resignation coincides with the Budget Session, where Rahul Gandhi was expected to bring this up. Whatever the reason behind his stepping down, this whole episode is already showing all signs of a full-blown scandal. More cases are coming to light of Mr Sonis resignation, which might just be the push needed for some serious cleaning up in the system. Vinay Kwatra to provide continuity India needs in DC Vinay Mohan Kwatra, fresh off his stint as Indias foreign secretary, has just landed a new role as the Indian Ambassador to the United States. This post had been vacant since January when Taranjit Sandhu retired, so Mr Kwatras appointment is a timely move to keep the Indo-US relations on a steady track. Mr Kwatras deep knowledge of international relations and his impressive diplomatic resume make him the perfect fit for this position, say observers. Hes seen a lot, having served in China, the US, France, and even in Mr Modis office. His background equips him well to handle the complexities of global politics and strengthen the bond between the two democracies. With the US elections around the corner, Mr Kwatras role becomes even more critical. His goal will be to provide stability and certainty in the India-US relationship, regardless of any shifts in the US administration. His immediate priority will be to connect with key officials who could shape India-related policies in the next administration. Rumi once said, In silence there is eloquence. Its a fitting quote for Mr Kwatra, one of Indias most quietly influential diplomats. His presence in Washington, DC, is set to mark a significant chapter in the ongoing Indo-US relationship. Keralas bold move: A new foreign secretary stirs controversy In a surprising twist, the Kerala government has appointed a senior IAS officer, K. Vasuki, who is currently the secretary of labour and skills as its foreign secretary, with the formal title of secretary in-charge of matters concerning external cooperation. This move has drawn quite a few raised eyebrows and some sharp criticism. Since foreign affairs are typically the domain of the Union government, the BJP has been quick to call this appointment a blatant overreach by chief minister Pinarayi Vijayans administration. The Congress has also chimed in, describing the decision as fairly unusual. According to the government order, Mr Vasuki will now oversee all matters related to external cooperation, working closely with the general administration (political) department until further arrangements are made. Additionally, the resident commissioner of Kerala House in New Delhi will support her in liaising with the ministry of external affairs (MEA) and Indian diplomatic missions abroad. Critics have questioned the legitimacy of Mr Vasukis new role, suggesting it encroaches on the MEAs jurisdiction. Some went as far as to call the appointment unconstitutional, even implying that Mr Vijayan might be attempting to create a separate nation within Kerala. However, some observers agree that the move is odd, but its appropriate for state governments to handle matters involving their residents abroad. Despite the controversy, the Kerala government seems to be pushing forward with this unconventional decision. Only time will tell if this strengthens the state's external relations or simply adds fuel to the political fire.

BCCI And IPL Team Owners To Discuss Retentions And RTM On July 31: Report
IPL CEO Hemang Amin: The meeting between the BCCI and all ten IPL franchise owners is all set to take place on July 31, where the talk will be dominated by the number of retentions teams can make and the Right to Match (RTM) options in hand ahead of IPL 2025 mega auction. A report by Cricbuzz says IPL CEO Hemang Amin sent text messages to the franchise owners on Thursday morning for the meeting on July 31, telling them that a formal invite with the venue and timing would follow. Amin is understood to have also indicated that the meeting would occur in the late afternoon or evening on July 31. It is believed that all the owners have confirmed their availability for the meeting. While the exact venue has not been confirmed, the congregation is expected to take place at the Cricket Centre, the BCCI headquarters, located within the Wankhede Stadium complex in Mumbai, it added. For the IPL 2018 Mega Auction, franchises were allowed to retain up to five players - three from the auction - and others by using the Right to Match (RTM) card. But the introduction of two new teams - Gujarat Titans and Lucknow Super Giants - in 2022 resulted in existing teams being allowed to retain four players, with no RTM card involved. While the exact venue has not been confirmed, the congregation is expected to take place at the Cricket Centre, the BCCI headquarters, located within the Wankhede Stadium complex in Mumbai, it added. Also Read: Akram hopes Indian Team Will Travel To Pakistan For Champions Trophy The Right To Match (RTM) option is a contentious issue that may be debated at the meeting, although it's likely that the BCCI has already made a decision on the matter, it concluded.

The Brihanmumbai Municipal Corporation (BMC) shared a video of the overflowing lake on its official social media handle on X.

Weather Today (July 25): Heavy Rains to Pound Maharashtra, Gujarat, Uttarakhand, Punjab, Haryana, Rajasthan The Weather Channel
Theres a shift in the season. Even though the heavy humid air surrounds us, one cannot help but notice that the festive season is near, and soon the weather will change to breezy mornings and lighter evenings. I, for one, love the cooler temperatures and cannot wait for the autumn breeze to surround us, slowly giving way to the magical Delhi winters! But as much as I abhor the hot summer months, it is only my love for mangoes that makes them bearable. The excitement began all the way back in March, as Alphonsos from Ratnagiri started flooding the market, slowly making way for Gir Kesar from Gujarat. Then, come the familiar mangoes from the Northern beltLangra, Dussehri, Chausa and Amrapali. Alas! Were almost at the end of the mango season. Not being one whos quite ready to bid farewell to my favourite fruit just as yet, I decided to pack my bags and drive almost 300 kilometres to a century-old mango orchard in the foothills of the Shivaliks, to savour the sight and flavours of the seasons last few mangoes. Bikram Bagh in Nahan, a small town in the Sirmaur district of Himachal Pradesh, is spread over 100 acres and was established by Colonel Bir Bikram Singh, the younger son of the then Maharaja of Sirmaur. He was an astute military man who led as the Commander in Chief of the State Forces in WWIrelics of which can still be seen at Bikram Bagh. The sprawling land was once a dense forest, which the late colonel converted into an enviable orchard with over 15-20 varieties of mangoes. Siddharth Katoch, a resident of Delhi and the man behind Bikram Bagh today, is the fifth generation member who has taken it upon himself to preserve this rich family history. That mango tree that you see behind your room is almost a century old and was amongst one of the first trees to have been planted here. This mango on that tree is known as Handle, and it was specially grafted for King George V, Katoch shares. The mango was almost as big as my face, and I was informed that this was not even half the size that it once used to be! It is a variety that is not as common in the rest of India but was once amongst the most prized ones in this belt of Shivaliks. It is an extremely fleshy mango with a small seed, and it was made to be such that scooping and eating it was easier for the colonisers, who did enjoy their fair bit of the king of fruits. I brought back one giant Handle with me to Delhi, along with some freshly plucked Dussehri and Langras. At home, I cut a tiny piece to taste and realised that it was too tarty to be eaten as it is, so I decided to char it on the gas flame and make a smoky aam-panna with it. As the embers from the mango flew and made the fruit slit open, the sweet nectar trickled down and the heady aroma of smoked mango infused with its inherent sweetness surrounded us. If only I could transfer that aroma into my carefully strewn words This mango season, I have been lucky to not only have consumed the most delicious mangoes but also discovered some interesting youngsters from Delhi, who are doing their bit to preserve and document their familys heritage that is so richly interlinked with this fruit. From Siddharth Katoch of Bikram Bagh who has bid his city-life adieu to settle in the silence of his mango orchards where the only sounds that surround him are of chirpy loud birds, to Sanyaa Mehrotra of The Farm Project, who to keep her grandmothers legacy alive has launched this initiative, where theyre delivering mangoes across India, from their orchard in Uttar Pradeshs Malihabad. India is also steadily waking up to following more thematic tourism ideas, instead of simply sticking to selecting a destination. For this, in the mango universe, India today has mango festivals which are designed exclusively for enthusiasts. Theres also an increasing effort to save the history of mangoes, and the king of fruits reciprocates by giving back in surprises that you never may have expected. For instancejust as I marvelled at the humongous Handle, Katoch presented to me its antithesis. Called Supari, it looked like an overgrown betel nut, showcasing the sheer richness and variety of mangoes in India that took me by surprise!
