Target Injustice President Persona country social Department Who is Ebrahim Rasool? South African ambassador to the U.S who has been declared persona non grata and asked to leave the country by Donald Trump; here's the reason why
Trump administration escalated its rift with South Africa by declaring the country’s ambassador, Ebrahim Rasool, persona non grata—a rare diplomatic rebuke typically reserved for lower-ranking officials. Secretary of State Marco Rubio accused Rasool of harboring anti-Trump sentiments, citing a webinar where the ambassador criticized Elon Musk’s ties to far-right European figures. Rubio’s announcement, made via social media during a flight from G7 meetings, left the State Department scrambling to clarify details, including whether Rasool was even in the U.S. at the time. Rasool, a veteran anti-apartheid activist and ally of Nelson Mandela, previously served as ambassador from 2010–2015 before returning in January. His expulsion follows Trump’s executive order slashing aid to South Africa, citing contested claims about land reforms targeting white Afrikaners. The move marks a dramatic downturn in relations, echoing Cold War-era diplomatic standoffs but breaking precedent by targeting an ambassador.

Srinivasan packed a few belongings, left her cat behind with a friend and jumped on a flight to Canada at LaGuardia Airport.

Trump said he ordered a series of airstrikes on Yemen's capital, Sanaa, on Saturday, promising to use «overwhelming lethal force» until Iranian-backed Houthi rebels cease their attacks on shipping along a vital maritime corridor. «Our brave Warfighters are right now carrying out aerial attacks on the terrorists' bases, leaders, and missile defenses to protect American shipping, air, and naval assets, and to restore Navigational Freedom,» Trump said in a social media post. «No terrorist force will stop American commercial and naval vessels from freely sailing the Waterways of the World.» He also warned Iran to stop supporting the rebel group, promising to hold the country «fully accountable» for the actions of its proxy. The Houthis reported a series of explosions in their territory Saturday evening. Images circulating online show plumes of black smoke over the area of the Sanaa airport complex, which includes a sprawling military facility. The extent of the damage was not yet clear. The airstrikes come a few days after the Houthis said they would resume attacks on Israeli vessels sailing in waters off Yemen in response to Israel's blockade on Gaza. There have been no Houthi attacks reported since then.

The success stories of Spanx and Skims have made shapewear quite hip—and it’s true for India, too. A Google search for “shapewear in India” results in hundreds of options, including shapewear specialists like Dermawear, startups like ButtChique and The Active Story that started in 2020 and 2023, respectively, intimatewear labels like Nykd by Nykaa Fashion, older brands like Zivame and Clovia, international brands like Marks & Spencer and smaller brands in online marketplaces.

So, is everyone wearing shapewear? Not as many as should, says Abhishek K Kumar, CEO of Dermawear. “In comparison to the global usage of such products, we have only scratched the surface. India still has a long way to go to adapt shapewear in daily life, which underscores the opportunity the market presents.” He that is not keen on loose petticoats and pinching drawstrings.

Election President Justice inclusion information recommendations rights Judiciary's role in selection of CEC: A question of balance
Chief Election Commissioner and an election commissioner last month, needless questions are being raised on whether they were the right individuals for these offices because the Chief Justice of India was not on the selection committee. Argument being that the CJI's exclusion has rendered the selection one-sided as the Leader of Opposition is in the obvious minority. This logic is spurious. Article 324 (2) of the Constitution that outlines the composition and appointment of the CEC and ECs reads as follows: «The Election Commission shall consist of the chief election commissioner and such number of other election commissioners, if any, as the President may from time to time fix and the appointment of the chief election commissioner and other election commissioners shall, subject to the provisions of any law made in that behalf by Parliament, be made by the President.» The President has been appointing the CEC and ECs on the advice of the executive, that is the government of the day. Parliament has not enacted any law to amend this process. The LoP's inclusion in the selection committee for the appointment of any regulatory position started with the Right to Information Act, 2005. Under this law, the President appoints central information commissioners on the recommendation of not the executive but a selection committee comprising the Prime Minister, a minister nominated by him and the LoP in the Lok Sabha. In state information commissions, the governor makes the appointment on the recommendation of a committee comprising the chief minister, a minister and the LoP of the state assembly.

UPS film audience song singer dance The evolution of Holi songs in Hindi cinema: From Bachchan to modern hits
Rang barse' and 'Hori khele Raghuveera' so often that I have Bachchan coming out of my ears. For the uninitiated, both songs are based on traditional numbers that were reimagined for Hindi cinema. Amitabh Bachchan sang 'Rang barse' in Yash Chopra's 1981 film Silsila, and is one of the singers for 'Hori khele Raghuveera' from 2003's Baghban directed by Ravi Chopra. Up to the 1980s, songs and dances revolving around Holi were routine in Hindi cinema. While the colours and energy intrinsic to the festival were its primary attractions for filmmakers, they also often steeped Holi set pieces in symbolism, or used them as a segue into high drama in the plot. Sometimes these songs contained expressions of longing and sorrow, emotions that were underlined by their contrast to the unbridled joy of most of the characters present. Sometimes they were an excuse for either consensual romance or sexual harassment. In Mehboob Khan's 1957 Mother India, heartache, flirtation, and misconduct were all packed into 'Holi aayi re Kanhai' picturised on Nargis, Raaj Kumar, Sunil Dutt, and Rajendra Kumar.

markets COST UPS Research innovations reports Pharmaceuticals China’s biotech is redrawing the global pharma map; what India can learn
China though it has not got the sensational public attention the AI model received. China’s biotech research is redrawing the global map. The axis of innovation is tilting from the West to Beijing. Scores of small biotech startups, which have sprung up across China over the last decade, are coming up with medical breakthroughs. Impressed by the speed of drug research and new treatment modalities, global pharmaceutical companies are throwing princely sums to buy leads, which have the potential to be drugs. There is a big lesson or two here for India, which has been prioritising generics over innovation. The quiet change in China is stark. Barely two decades ago, it was looked down as a big factory for low-cost production of chemicals and raw materials for the pharmaceutical industry. Now savvy and young scientists, trained in the US and Europe, are regrouping in their home turf. Popularly referred to as sea turtles (which return from the sea to the beach to lay eggs), they come back with their knowledge of science and business. This disruption has become an existential risk for the centuries-old, entrenched American and European pharmaceutical industries.

Death Myanmar Trade Wildlife country reports India’s tiger boom at risk: Trafficking resurges amid soaring demand for tiger bones in China & Vietnam
Maya’s team—which included another woman, two men and a child— was carrying the skin of an adult tiger and 17 kilos of bones. Before “someone from Meghalaya” could come and collect the consignment from Maya, the police swooped in. “We were stunned to find that these were the remains of a second tiger— we had already missed the first tiger,” says Pranjal Baruah, a range officer of Kamrup, Assam, who had spearheaded the initial probe. Forensic tests traced the skin to one of the three missing tigers from the faraway Tadoba-Andhari Tiger Reserve in Maharashtra. That was a clue something was going awry with the striped beast. Even as India’s tiger population has been steadily climbing over the past couple of decades, it could get derailed. A surging appetite for tiger bones in China and Vietnam and the revival of a smuggling route through Mizoram-Myanmar have reignited dormant trafficking networks. The Assam case was transferred to the Wildlife Crime Control Bureau (WCCB), an arm of the ministry of environment and forests, which cracks down on organised wildlife crime. The agency’s trail led to multiple arrests in Maharashtra. They also caught Mishram Jakhad, an octogenarian from Dwarka in Delhi, believed to be a key link between tiger poachers and smuggling syndicates.

Target Action security WhatsApp voice Jaffar train hijacking could deepen mistrust between China and Pakistan
Baloch Liberation Army's hijacking of the Jaffar Express could intensify the growing mistrust between China's policy circles and Pakistan's security apparatus, as Beijing remains increasingly concerned over its vast investments in Balochistan. Chinese officials continue to voice concerns over the deteriorating security situation in the region, despite Pakistan's deployment of the Special Security Division (SSD) — a 15,000-strong force dedicated to protecting Chinese personnel involved in the China-Pakistan Economic Corridor (CPEC). However, there are deepening doubts within China about Pakistan's ability to ensure security in the volatile province. In 2017, China proposed establishing joint security ventures with private security firms to protect Chinese nationals in Pakistan.

Progressive security WhatsApp Bill social consequences Chuck Schumer in the line of fire as Democrats revolt against him, leaders ask Alexandria Ocasio-Cortez to primary him
The bill, passed by the House with rare GOP unity, funds the government until September but omits safeguards against Trump’s unilateral agency closures and budget slashing. Progressive lawmakers like Alexandria Ocasio-Cortez and Ro Khanna slammed Schumer’s pivot as a betrayal, arguing it surrenders congressional oversight and empowers Trump’s austerity agenda. The legislation mandates $1 billion cuts to Washington, DC, risking layoffs for teachers and police, while past shutdowns saw federal workers furloughed and services disrupted. Schumer defended his decision, claiming a shutdown would grant Trump unchecked authority to define “essential” operations, though critics like Sen. Chris Van Hollen argue the bill still enables executive overreach. With Democrats divided, the move highlights tensions over balancing fiscal responsibility with resisting Trump’s dismantling of federal programs, as the administration continues sidelining agencies like Social Security without congressional input.
