Reserve Bank of India (RBI) that they lost hundreds of crores of rupees in currency derivatives manipulatively sold by banks, the central bank slapped the lenders with penalties in the range of Rs 5-15 lakh. That was 2011. Come 2024, when the regulator found IIFL Finance Ltd in violation of its guidelines on gold loans, it ordered the company to shutter the business, landing a debilitating blow. The shift in the magnitude of the penalty between then and now not only captures how RBI has moved from kid gloves to boxing gloves in treating regulatory breaches, but also what is in store for potential violators.

Environment at Duke University. Speaking to Srijana Mitra Das, he discusses factors shaping effective green strategies: Q. What is the core of your research? A. I’m an economist working with different disciplines. My focus is on researching which policy interventions can bring both environmental and livelihoods gains in developing economies. We often imagine development and conservation as being opposed — can you share how planning achieved both in the Brazilian Amazon? We must remember that you can impose a policy — but local individuals have a lot of agency. If conservation actions don’t offer local development, they are likely to fail. Impactful conservation actions tend to be much more consistent with local development benefits. A protected area that helps locals, for example, means you can do this in a place where it really matters. Research by David Gill from the Duke Marine Lab shows you can have impacts in marine protected areas when you allow local smallholder activities. This needs community involvement in planning and conditions, resources and governance to ensure these places do as well as protected areas which evict people.

Bengaluru: As one goes around India's tech hub, what catches the eye most these days is how the language of the land, Kannada, gets "prominence" on the signboards of businesses. A far cry indeed from the not-too-distant past when English held sway, thanks to a government directive. With the deadline for complying with 60 per cent use of Kannada in signboards of businesses and establishments coming to an end, a vast majority of them in the city appear to have obeyed the mandate, with many even going for stopgap arrangements, aimed at ensuring compliance. A bill mandating 60 per cent use of Kannada in signboards of businesses and establishments was passed by the Karnataka Assembly in February, and the government had warned that non-compliance would lead to the cancellation of the licences of businesses. Now, temporary boards or banners instead of boards that are rules compliant, and also clothes or stickers covering the old boards, can be seen at several places in the city, in a bid to avoid fines and other penal action.
