India played their part well and made it difficult for us: Ancelotti
Digital Desk | Kolkata, Oct 4 (IANS) Brazil head coach Carlo Ancelotti carried genuine appreciation for the way India attempted to counter-attack and contributed to what he considered an entertaining and competitive contest at the Vivekananda Yuba Bharati Krirangan. India made five-time world champions Brazil work hard before the Selecao showed their quality and pulled away to a 4-0 victory on Saturday with Estevao and Pedro scoring before half-time and substitute Samuel Lino striking twice after the break. India played their part well. They tried to play their game; they defended, they were organised, they tried to play counter-attack. I think that they played a good game. We had difficulty opening the score, but the moment we opened the score with Estevao, we had more opportunity to control the game better, Ancelotti was quoted by AIFF. Although Brazil kept a clean sheet, Ancelotti admitted that India managed to expose spaces during a few counter-attacks. The Italian also pointed out that Brazil fielded a defensive combination that had not previously played together. I think we defended well. We could have defended better if we had a couple of chances in the counter-attack, but I think for us it's important not to concede a goal, he said. Obviously we have to improve some mechanisms in defence, but we had a new defence that never played together, so maybe not everything was perfect. Again, the message is that we are happy to be here. We tried to do our best; we tried to show our best quality to all the people who love Brazil and love football, and I hope they enjoyed the night. India remained compact during the opening stages and attempted to threaten Brazil through quick transitions. While Morisco had little to do for much of the first half, India tested the Brazilian goalkeeper through Ryan Williams and Manvir Singh after the restart. Reflecting on the overall contest and the atmosphere created by 51,000-odd spectators, Ancelotti said, We feel good. It was a good experience. I think it was a good game, entertaining, with good intensity, and India did their part. The friendly also allowed Ancelotti to assess several members of Brazils emerging generation. He made extensive changes during the second half as the Selecao concluded a three-match international window that had begun with two fixtures against Australia.

'Kejriwal is true dictator: Pargat Singh on suspension of AAP leader
Digital Desk | New Delhi, Oct 4 (IANS) Punjab Congress President Pargat Singh trained guns at the Aam Aadmi Party (AAP) over suspension of one of its leaders and a serving legislator Sukhveer Singh Maiserkhana from the party, over latter's adverse commentary on the state of health and education in the state. He labelled AAP national convenor Arvind Kejriwal a 'true dictator'. This is the true face of the Aam Aadmi Party. They used to showcase a model of education and health. But one of their own MLAs said that proper arrangements for education are not in place. Within two hoursthis is dictatorship. Kejriwal is a pure dictator. He is one thing to show and another thing in practice, Singh said. The Aam Aadmi Party (AAP) suspended the primary membership of legislator Sukhveer Singh Maiserkhana over alleged anti-party activities and indiscipline. Earlier, AAP MLA from Maur, Sukhveer Singh Maiserkhana, broke down during a live Facebook video on Saturday while criticising his own government over the shortage of teachers in government schools. He said he had repeatedly raised the issue with the authorities. Punjab Congress President Pargat Singh further said that the law and order situation in Punjab is weak because of a lack of professionalism in the leadership. He said that there was a lack of will in political and police leadership in the state. Speaking to IANS on Sunday, the newly appointed Punjab Congress President Pargat Singh said, When you demolish institutions, it is natural that a situation arises which, I believe, creates chaos. Today, in our country, we are losing trust in institutions, or losing trust in a political system. Speaking on the protests against CEC Gyanesh Kumar, he said, Losing trust in an individual is one thing, but when institutions get demolished, that is a huge loss for the country. As they say, a person dying is not true death, but the death of their conscience is true death. He also spoke on the law and order in Punjab, saying, I think two, three, or four murders are happening every day in Punjab; there is no law and order, and there is no professionalism. This is because there is no leader. There is no leader in the police, and there is a lack of will in political leadership as well. So somewhere, when such conditions exist, it is the same police force that performs very well at times. But when it becomes leaderless, naturally, the performance goes down. Recently, Punjab Congress witnessed a change in leadership after Amarinder Singh Raja Warring resigned as Punjab Congress chief, making way for MLA Pargat Singh, who was appointed as the new president of Punjab Pradesh Congress Committee(PPCC).

US firm offers to supply Ukrainian drones to Pakistan triggering regional security concerns
Digital Desk | New Delhi, Sep 4 (IANS) Powerus, an American defence company with close ties to the family of US President Donald Trump, shot into the limelight last week when it signed a memorandum of understanding (MoU) with the Pakistani Army and offered Islamabad access to Ukrainian drone technology which has serious implications for regional security. Within six months of being set up, in October last year, Powerus acquired three small firms and started manufacturing unmanned aerial and maritime systems. At the same time, Powerus signed a contract with G1 Exploration to commercialise autonomous defence systems developed in Ukraine. G1 Exploration owns the intellectual properties of seven fully developed drone models from Ukrainian manufacturers, as well as a number of systems at various stages of development. The collaboration between the two companies has also led to the launch of the Guardian line of drone interceptors, according to an article in India Narrative. The company has recently secured a number of contracts beating defence giants such as Lockheed Martin, General Dynamics and Boeing, which have a large share of the unmanned systems market. Powerus secured a contract with the U.S. Air Force to supply 3,000 interceptor drones, valued at $90 million, as well as a contract with the U.S. Department of Defense to supply 1,500 FPV drones, control kits, and spare parts, valued at $2.5 million. Besides, it has bagged a key $22.3 million deal to develop a system to protect critical oil and gas infrastructure in the Middle East on behalf of the United States. At the same time, Powerus began re-exporting Ukrainian drone technology to the Indian subcontinent. It first struck a deal with Paras Defense and Space Technologies in Mumbai, which provided for the production and sale of Guardian-1 technology in India. However, on September 16, the company signed the MoU with the Pakistan Army, represented by Field Marshal Asim Munir. The drone deal sparked controversy over conflicts of interest and raised serious concerns regarding regional security, especially given Islamabads active efforts to build up its drone capabilities by exporting Ukrainian tactics and technologies after its defeat in Operation Sindoor, the article points out. Although exact details have not been disclosed, Poweruss co-founder Brett Velicovich stated that the MoU calls for an initial order of unmanned aerial vehicles. He added that the companys ultimate goal is to establish a joint technology partnership and set up manufacturing operations in Pakistan. Powerus CEO Andrew Fox said that Pakistans private defence sector is still in the early stages of development, but is of interest to American companies. These statements raise particular concerns about the resumption of US-Pakistan defence cooperation. Although Washington has ceased supplying Islamabad with weapons, only providing modernisation packages for previously delivered F-16 fighter jets, the Powerus deal is a cause for concern, the article added.

Pakistan: Rising poverty pushes Rawalpindi
The number of labourers and daily-wage workers spending nights on pavements, roadsides and beneath public infrastructure in Rawalpindi has reportedly increased amid rising inflation, worsening poverty and declining purchasing power, highlighting the growing hardships faced by low-income workers, as reported by The Express Tribune. According to The Express Tribune, many workers now seek shelter beneath the Metrobus track and under shop awnings, particularly during rainy nights and the early morning hours. With little money left after meeting basic needs, renting even inexpensive accommodation has become difficult for many of them. A growing number of workers can be seen along Murree Road between Mareer Chowk and Faizabad, including Chandni Chowk, Rehmanabad and Liaquat Bagh Chowk. Some also sleep on benches inside Liaquat Bagh.

Taking to social media platform X, Yadav posted: As they released the Great Indian Bustards into the wild in Rajasthans Sam, Desert National Park, saw Dr Sutirtha Dutta, Dr Tushna Karkariya, and Hrishika Sharma got all emotional.

Earlier in the day, Yadav released two male Great Indian Bustards in Sam Desert National Park in Rajasthan's Jaisalmer. After releasing the bustards, the Union Minister posted on X: In a milestone move, released two male Great Indian Bustards in Sam, Desert National Park, Jaisalmer, today morning. This landmark success has been made possible by the nearly decade-long unwavering dedication of our scientists, researchers and ground staff who have spent years to ensure GIB reclaims the deserts of Rajasthan. The Union Minister also thanked Prime Minister Narendra Modi for his guidance, encouragement and constant support. I thank PM Shri @narendramodi ji for his continued guidance, encouragement and constant support in ensuring our scientific community can work for the conservation of all our species, including the GIB. Earlier on Saturday, Minister Yadav visited the breeding facility at Ramdevra and lauded the efforts of young researchers and scientists working for the conservation of the iconic species. The release of captive-bred GIBs represents the next critical step in the species recovery programme and will provide important scientific learnings for progressively developing and refining protocols for reintroduction of captive-bred birds into their natural habitat, the Ministry of Environment, Forest and Climate Change said in a press release. The programme has involved captive breeding and conservation efforts aimed at improving the prospects of the GIB and eventually returning captive-bred birds to the wild.
Ramesh Taurani and Kumar Taurani spoke to Komal Nahta about their journey and experience of working on the music of some important films in their career. They shared fascinating trivia about one of most popular films of Tips Music, Raja Hindustani (1996). Ramesh Taurani revealed, During our first sitting of Raja Hindustani, we locked 5 songs. Instead of Kitna Pyaara Tujhe Rab Ne Banaya, we had initially finalized Yaara O Yaara Milna Humara. However, Dharmesh Darshan later dropped the song and opted for Kitna Pyaara Tujhe Rab Ne Banaya since the line Sabse pyaara mera yaara Raja Hindustani could be incorporated into it. It worked perfectly as the films title was woven into the lyrics. Ramesh added, Hence, I told Nadeem (of Nadeem-Shravan fame) to lock Kitna Pyaara Tujhe Rab Ne Banaya. I suggested that well use Yaara O Yaara in Jeet (1996). Thats how that song became a part of Jeet. Ramesh Taurani continued, It helps when you have a music director like Dharmesh Darshan. We had a song Aaye Ho Mere Zindagi Mein Tum Baahar Ban Ke. For its female version, Dharmesh added some lovely 5-6 lines like Mere saath yun hi chalna, badlega rang zamana, par tum nahin badalna, meri maang yun hi bharna, taare hazaar ban ke. This makes the process very collaborative. Also Read: Ramesh Taurani reveals he once REFUSED a film because Suniel Shetty was the hero; One hour later, his secretary called me

Chinas property bust exposes deep cracks in local government finances: Report
Digital Desk | New Delhi, Oct 4 (IANS) Chinas prolonged property downturn has exposed deep vulnerabilities in a local government financing model that relied heavily on land sales and off-budget borrowing, with the resulting fiscal strain increasingly weighing on businesses, workers and economic growth, a report has said. For years, land finance gave local governments access to resources and spending flexibility that the formal fiscal system did not provide, according to the East Asia Forum report. Following the 1994 tax-sharing reform, local governments retained responsibility for a large share of public services and development spending while their revenue-raising powers remained limited. As a result, they increasingly turned to land-use rights sales and borrowing through off-budget financing vehicles, often using land assets as collateral, the report said. The model helped fund infrastructure, accelerate urbanisation and support China's investment-driven growth. It also encouraged local officials to compete for investment and economic expansion. However, the dependence on land revenues made local finances highly vulnerable to the property cycle. At the peak of China's housing market in 2021, broadly defined land-related revenue, including land-sale proceeds and associated taxes, accounted for nearly half of local governments' consolidated revenue, equivalent to around 10 per cent of GDP. By 2025, that share had fallen to about 25 per cent of local revenue, or less than 5 per cent of GDP. The actual strength of land demand may have been weaker than these figures suggest, as local government financing vehicles themselves purchased large amounts of land, helping to inflate reported land-sale revenues during the property boom, as per the report. The sharp decline in land-related income has since exposed the scale of debt accumulated by local governments during the boom years. Between 2019 and 2023, debt servicing on official local government debt, including principal and interest payments, increased from around 8 per cent of local revenue before central government transfers to 18 per cent. The debt burden has also intensified for off-budget borrowing. Much of this debt was raised against land as collateral during the property boom, leaving financing vehicles increasingly exposed as land prices and transactions weakened. In heavily indebted provinces such as Guizhou, local authorities have openly sought greater support from Beijing as their ability to manage mounting obligations has come under pressure.
