NCLAT upholds 'clean slate' principle, rejects Sintex shareholder claim
The Insolvency Appellate Tribunal NCLAT has affirmed the clean slate principle under the Insolvency and Bankruptcy Code (IBC), which bars any attempt to reestablish pre-resolution shareholders' rights, and rejected the claims of a shareholder of Sintex Industries. A two-member NCLAT bench dismissed the appeal by a Kerala-based investor seeking around Rs 110 crore in compensation for 1,35,000 equity shares of Sintex Industries Ltd (SIL) that were extinguished under the company's insolvency resolution plan. The appellate tribunal ruled that shareholders, whose equity was extinguished under the company's insolvency resolution plan, cannot revive their rights through proceedings under the Companies Act after the bids have been approved and the resolution plan has attained finality with a new ownership. The National Company Law Appellate Tribunal (NCLAT) said Section 238 of the Insolvency & Bankruptcy Code (IBC) gives it primacy over all other laws, including the Companies Act, 2013,

The Floating Palaces of Dal: A Sanctuary at a Crossroads
For centuries, the wooden houseboats of Kashmir have rested upon the serene waters of Dal and Nigeen lakes like floating palaces. Crafted from resilient Deodar cedar, their ornate Khatamband wood-panelled ceilings and delicate Pinjrakari lattice-work windows stand as living archives of the Valleys artistic soul. Yet their origins were born out of clever adaptation. During my school days at the prestigious Islamia High School, Srinagar, our school excursions would take us through the pristine waters of the lake. Starting from Baba Demb, near the present Khanyar police station, we would journey all the way to the various Mughal Gardens aboard local doongas. These traditional boats were simple and unadorned, much like a passenger transport plane. They had a working kitchen on board, and the owners family lived in the aft section. We students thoroughly enjoyed those memorable trips to distant shores, freely drinking water straight from the lakea source so pure back then that it required no boiling or filtration. Today, to my deep heartbreak, that once-pristine water body has been turned into a virtual cesspool. In the late 19th century under Dogra rule, foreign visitors and British officers were prohibited by law from purchasing land or constructing permanent houses in Kashmir. To bypass this restriction, an enterprising Englishman named M.T. Kennard partnered with local boat builders in the late 1880s. Together, they adapted the traditional doonga into luxurious, stationary floating homes. Waterborne living, however, is not unique to the Valley. Floating habitations exist across the globe: Amsterdam, Netherlands: Over 2,400 houseboats (woonschepen) line historic canals, originally converted from surplus cargo barges after WWII. Kerala, India: The famous Kettuvallams of the southern backwaterstraditionally used to transport rice and spicesnow serve as gliding tourist retreats. Inle Lake, Myanmar & SE Asia: The Intha and Bajau communities reside in stilt houses and traditional wooden craft (lepa-lepa) designed entirely around an aquatic lifestyle. Unlike mobile river barges, Kashmirs houseboats are stationary masterpieces. But today, they stand at a delicate crossroads. Overcrowding in prime basins restricts open water, straining the lake's natural self-cleaning capacity. Furthermore, natural decay, strict environmental caps, and an ageing community of master carpenters (Naav Chaan) have reduced the fleet from thousands to under 800. Indiscriminate removal would devastate local livelihoods and erase a defining cultural identity. The solution lies in scientific ecology and smart engineering. The single most vital step is implementing closed-loop, zero-discharge sanitation: attaching sealed, modular bio-tanks beneath each hull. These floating waste containment units can collect all human waste without a single drop touching the water. Specialised service barges can then conveniently detach, drain, and reinstall the sealed tanks on a routine schedule. Preservation does not mean freezing a tradition in timeit means allowing it to evolve safely. By combining spatial management with modern, detachable sanitary infrastructure, Kashmir can restore its pristine waters while keeping its iconic floating heritage proudly afloat for generations to come.

Duleep Trophy Semis: East Face Central, North Take On South (Preview)
North East Zone: Eyes will be on teenage sensation Vaibhav Sooryavanshi once again when he takes the field in the Duleep Trophy semifinal for East Zone against Rajat Patidar's defending champions, Central Zone, while South Zone will face North Zone in the other semifinal. Both matches are set for Sunday. East Zone won their quarter-final against North East Zone, as all-rounder Shahbaz Ahmed starred with both bat and ball to lead the side to an innings-and-210-run win. Shahbaz (167) forged a strong 150-run partnership with the other centurion, Sudip Kumar Gharami (146), to power the Ishan Kishan-led side to a daunting 467. Medium-pacer Abhijit K Sarkar and Shahbaz then plotted the downfall of the North East side, with Abhijit taking 5-20 and Shahbaz 3-20 as they bowled Rongsen Jonathan's team out for 111 and enforced a follow-on. North East Zone again faced the brunt of East Zone's bowlers and were bowled out for 146 in the follow-on, with no one scoring a half-century. Ankulul Roy starred with a five-wicket haul, while Sooryavanshi took two wickets in a surprise move. East Zone won by an innings and 210 runs. However, a much tougher test will await them in the semi-final, when they will face the defending champions at the BCCI Centre of Excellence Ground 1. Central Zone have the much stronger personnel, with Patidar leading the way and the likes of Rinku Singh, Harsh Dubey, Yash Thakur and Saransh Jain posing a significant threat. Saransh made his India debut in Colombo against Sri Lanka and will be gunning for success in the domestic circuit. Meanwhile, North Zone, who defeated West Zone in a close quarter-final, will face Tilak Varma's South Zone. Kanhaiya Wadhawan's North Zone defeated the Ruturaj Gaikwad-led West Zone by 52 runs, as Abid Mushtaq and Nishant Sindhu shared six wickets to deny West a chase of 286 on the final day of the quarter-final. North had scored 251 in the first innings after a late-order 60 from Anshul Kamboj, while Mushtaq took a five-for in the first innings, as his team took a 44-run lead. North did enough in the second innings too, as Ayush Badoni hit 50 and Sindhu made 44, taking the team to 222. Mushtaq stood tall once again with the ball, taking 4-60 in the second innings, while Sindhu took 2-59 in a 52-run win. South Zone will pose a significant threat to North's title hopes. The side is led by India T20I vice-captain Varma, while the likes of Smaran Ravichandran, Karun Nair, Shreyas Gopal and Narayan Jagadeesan add strength to the side. When: Sunday, August 30, 9:30 AM IST Where: BCCI CoE Ground 1 and BCCI CoE Ground 2 Where to watch: The match will be streamed live on the JioHotstar app and website.
