Target Bill recommendations rights Editorial Kerala: Muslim League expresses displeasure over Priyanka Gandhi's absence during Waqf Bill debate

Indian Union Muslim League has expressed dissatisfaction over Wayanad MP and Congress leader Priyanka Gandhi's absence during the discussion of the Waqf Amendment Bill in Parliament. Suprabhatham, the mouthpiece of Samastha Kerala Jem-iyyathul Ulama, criticised Priyanka Gandhi for not attending the session while the bill was being debated in the Lok Sabha on Wednesday. The editorial, published on April 4, called her absence a «Black Mark» and also raised questions about where Priyanka Gandhi was when the BJP was advancing the bill, which they believe undermines the fundamental rights of Muslims. Additionally, it questioned why the opposition leader, Rahul Gandhi, did not speak on the bill, which they claim affects the nation's unity. The editorial further acknowledged the opposition parties, including Congress, TMC, and Left, for their collective stand against the bill in Parliament under the INDIA alliance.

Target WhatsApp wellness stars rights bowling MS Dhoni to return as CSK captain against Delhi Capitals? Shane Watson drops a big hint

Shane Watson, former Australian all-rounder and ex-CSK star, has dropped a major hint about MS Dhoni possibly returning as captain of the Chennai Super Kings against Delhi Capitals for today’s match. When asked if Dhoni would step in as captain if Ruturaj Gaikwad is unavailable for CSK’s against DC, Watson said, «If Ruturaj doesn’t play, you’d expect MSD to step in. He’s already leading on the field, guiding Ruturaj whenever he can. So, if needed, it would be a very seamless transition for him to take over as captain.” Gaikwad was hit on his unprotected elbow during the previous clash of the ongoing 18th edition of the cash-rich league against Rajasthan Royals at Guhawati. This incident took place when the 28-year-old player stepped out on the bowling of right-arm seamer Tushar Deshpande in the second over while chasing a target of 183 runs. Speaking at a pre-match press conference, CSK batting coach Michael Hussey said that Gaikwad's elbow is sore right now, but he is getting better day by day. »Yeah, we're hoping he [Gaikwad] is going to try and have a bat today for training. And, yeah, it [elbow] is still a little bit sore, but it's improving every day. So, we're very hopeful that he'll be fine for tomorrow," Michael Hussey said as quoted by ESPNcricinfo.

markets COST UPS Manufacturing War rights Trump tariff hunt eyes India's last stock market refuge but it won't be an easy kill

Donald Trump’s tariff tantrums on April 2, are now nursing their wounds. The Nifty Pharma index tumbled 4% on Friday, slamming the brakes on a relief rally that lasted less than 24 hours. Investors who had rushed into stocks like Laurus Labs, Aurobindo Pharma, Lupin, Biocon, Gland Pharma and Cipla watched them fall between 5% and 7% in a single session. The shock came courtesy of Trump’s chilling declaration: Pharma tariffs are “going to be starting to come in… at a level that you haven't really seen before.” The announcement, he said, is “under review right now” and will be made “in the near future.”

Manufacturing economy Adidas Trade country Courts Factories under threat, Southeast Asian countries look to court Trump to ease the pain

Vietnam, Thailand and Cambodia have for years worked to turn themselves into alternatives to China for factories making the bags, electronics, shoes and auto parts that eventually end up in the United States. Now, they will face some of the most punishing tariffs. All three countries have said in recent days that they’re open to negotiations over the “reciprocal tariffs” Trump announced this week, while Singapore, a finance and trade hub, has said that it doesn’t plan to strike back. The offers come as nations worldwide weigh how to respond to Trump’s decision to slap tariffs from 10% to as high as 50% on every country. Since his announcement, trillions of dollars in market value have been wiped out globally and triggered widespread recession alarms. Southeast Asia’s offers to negotiate contrast with China’s immediate retaliation, while the European Union is preparing its own countermeasures if talks fail. Trump and Vietnam's leader To Lam have agreed to discuss a deal to remove tariffs, both leaders said after a phone call that Trump said was «very productive», as Hanoi has escalated its campaign to dodge duties of 46%.

markets Citi FIVE Sustainability Fallout Experts Cycling Bengaluru and Pune property prices are in danger due to Trump tariff fallout, CA warns

recession — a threat that could hit India where it hurts most: its tech-driven cities. As American companies rein in spending, Indian IT firms are grappling with slower project cycles and shrinking revenues. The impact is already visible, with the Nifty IT index plunging 9% this week — its biggest weekly drop in five years — sparking concerns that a downturn in the US could derail the ongoing recovery in technology spending. Experts warn that India cannot remain immune to global economic shocks. Chartered accountant Paaras Gangwal highlighted on X (formerly Twitter) that a US recession may trigger a domino effect, especially in IT hubs like Bengaluru and Pune. He pointed out that the real estate boom in these cities has been fuelled by IT growth, making them vulnerable to global tech disruptions. In a post on X (formerly Twitter), CA Paaras Gangwal wrote, “Bangalore, Pune Real Estate Market is linked with IT Sector. It is HOT because boom in the IT Sector in last 3-4 Year. Recession in USA may impact the Real Estate market of IT Cities too.”

death toll from Myanmar's devastating earthquake climbed to 3,354, with 4,850 injured and 220 missing, state media said on Saturday, as the visiting U.N. aid chief praised humanitarian and community groups for leading the aid response. The leader of the military government, Senior General Min Aung Hlaing, was back in the capital Naypyitaw after a rare foreign trip to attend a summit in Bangkok of South and Southeast Asian nations, where he also met separately with the leaders of Thailand, Nepal, Bhutan, Sri Lanka and India. Min Aung Hlaing reaffirmed to Indian Prime Minister Narendra Modi the junta's plans to hold «free and fair» elections in December, Myanmar state media said. Modi called for a post-quake ceasefire in Myanmar's civil war to be made permanent, and said the elections needed to be «inclusive and credible», an Indian foreign affairs spokesperson said on Friday. Critics have derided the planned election as a sham to keep the generals in power through proxies.
