Kamala Harris is set to conduct a rare extended campaign interview Tuesday, taking questions from a trio of journalists from the National Association of Black Journalists just a month after former President Donald Trump 's appearance before the same organization turned contentious over matters of race and other issues. The Trump interview opened a chapter in the campaign in which the Republican candidate repeatedly questioned Harris' racial identity, baselessly claiming that she had only belatedly «turned Black» at some point in her professional career. Trump has since repeatedly questioned Harris' racial identity on the campaign trail and during the September presidential debate Harris, the daughter of a Jamaican father and an Indian mother, has repeatedly dismissed Trump's remarks as «the same old show.» During her September debate with Trump she said it was a «tragedy» that he had «attempted to use race to divide the American people.»

Alongside the launch of the Gates Foundation Goalkeepers Report 2024, Microsoft cofounder and philanthropist Bill Gates tells ET that he hopes India will be able to graduate from the public distribution system and rely instead on raised incomes over the next decades. Edited excerpts: The latest Goalkeepers Report focuses strongly on malnutrition. What is your view on India’s policy interventions such as free cereals given through the public distribution system? There is no doubt that the poorer you are, the higher is food as a percentage of your budget. And so, the idea that governments, either by incentivising the private sector or through various subsidisation, keep food costs fairly low- particularly for the urban poor, and yet they have to be careful not to hurt the farmers. The balancing act, India does manage largely. In the US, we have graduated from needing to have this type of food distribution. We have a thing called ‘food stamps’, where you get money, and you can only use it to buy food. At some point — it could be more than a decade — hopefully, you can graduate from having to have a public distribution system and just rely on the fact that you have raised incomes and educated consumers.

Chandra Arya on Tuesday raised the issue of violence against minorities in Bangladesh in Canadian Parliament in what was the first such statement in a Parliament in the West since the fall of the Sheikh Hasina government in early August. “I am deeply concerned by violence targeting religious minorities, including Hindus, Buddhists and Christians in Bangladesh. Every time there is instability in Bangladesh, religious minorities, particularly Hindus, face the brunt. The share of religious minorities in the population of Bangladesh has significantly decreased since it achieved its independence in 1971,” Arya pointed out in his statement. “From 23.1%, including about 20% Hindus, it has now come down to just about 9.6%, including about 8.5% Hindus. Canadian Hindus who have families in Bangladesh are concerned about the security and safety of their families, their temples and properties,” Arya claimed, adding, “They will be holding a rally on Parliament Hill next Monday, September 23, to highlight the current situation there. They will be joined by Canadian Buddhists and Christians who have families in Bangladesh.”

In a recent chat with Siddharth Kannan, alongside Sunil Grover, Kiku Sharda, and Rajiv Thakur, Singh revealed that despite her laughter being a central part of the show, her salary is not as high as others who handle more demanding roles. Singh noted, “I’m happy with what I earn because I only have to laugh.

PM-WANI framework guidelines will encourage more individuals to run Wi-Fi hotspots within their local community, thus creating lakhs of micro-entrepreneurs in India, Broadband India Forum (BIF) said Tuesday. BIF, which represents technology firms like Meta, Google, Amazon, TCS etc, also refuted the arguments given by telcos that PM-WANI was redundant, and it can cause revenue loss. “If India were to establish 50 million PM-WANI hotspots, as targeted, telcos could gain an additional Rs 60,000 crore in revenue annually from bandwidth sales in addition to the benefit they will get by having more broadband users, which they might not reach otherwise,” BIF said in a statement. The Department of Telecommunications (DoT) has amended the guidelines for the Prime Minister Wi-Fi Access Network Interface (PM-WANI) allowing roaming between public data office aggregator (PDOA), removing the need for a commercial agreement between a telco and PDO, allowing the PDOs or public data office to use the existing access points for public and private use. Also, the PDOs have been permitted to accept mobile data offload from the telcos, thereby helping ease the congestion on the mobile network.
