The primary reason behind the long police, family court, supreme court proceedings was demand for more alimony by wife after taking Rs 12 lakh from her husband during the course of their married life. This was despite his wife having Rs 1.05 crore worth of bank FDs, cash, etc. His wife argued that he had both the means and ability to provide more alimony. She also claimed that her husband had Rs 5,000 crore worth of assets, a USA based business and multiple house properties in Pune, Bhopal and in other cities. While the husband was ready to offer Rs 20 to 40 lakh as permanent alimony, his wife demanded at least Rs 500 crore and one of the properties owned by the husband's 85-year-old father.

Realty developers’ body CREDAI has written to the finance minister Nirmala Sitharaman urging a review of the proposal as the move would result in a substantial incremental impact on project costs, pushing housing prices up by around 10% across various property markets of the country. “FSI/ additional FSI charges constitute a significant part of the project cost, and the proposal to impose 18% GST on such charges could prove to be counterproductive and act as a deterrent to housing supply and demand, owing to additional financial obligations and increasing housing prices as a direct consequence. We strongly request and recommend to the Government to keep the FSI charges exempt from GST,” said Boman Irani, president, CREDAI.

karma gets recorded in the soul. It brings consequences either in this life or in the life after. With inner powers, we can create right karmas and face consequences of wrong karmas with equanimity. Do you take credit for situations when life is smooth? Do you blame God or other people when life hits a rough patch? Do you believe you create your destiny or consider it pre-destined? We make our destiny good or bad according to the quality of karma, response or reaction we render to what is happening to us, and it's our choice. Let's create the right thoughts, words and actions. Good karma settles past karmic accounts and creates a pleasant experience now, and a rich destiny for the future. Let's not focus on what people and situations do to us, let's focus on our karmas. Your every thought, word and deed should be pure, positive and powerful, irrespective of circumstances.

Supreme Court on Tuesday said courts must exercise caution in dowry harassment cases to prevent misuse of law and avoid unnecessary trouble to innocent family members observing a tendency to implicate husband's kin. A bench of Justices B V Nagarathna and N Kotiswar Singh said a mere reference to the names of family members in a criminal case arising out of a matrimonial dispute, without specific allegations indicating their active involvement, should be nipped in the bud. «It is a well-recognised fact, borne out of judicial experience, that there is often a tendency to implicate all the members of the husband's family when domestic disputes arise out of a matrimonial discord. Such generalised and sweeping accusations unsupported by concrete evidence or particularised allegations cannot form the basis for criminal prosecution,» it said. The top court, therefore, said courts must exercise caution in such cases to prevent misuse of legal provisions and the legal process and avoid unnecessary harassment of innocent family members.

Donald Trump prepares for his second term as US President, his aggressive trade stance is already creating ripples in the global economy. A key element of his protectionist policies is the threat of imposing 100% tariffs on BRICS countries, including India, if they move away from using the US dollar in international transactions. This bold stance, declared through a scathing social media post, could have severe consequences for India’s exports, particularly in critical sectors such as pharmaceuticals, textiles, and information technology. Trump’s remarks come in response to discussions among BRICS nations, which include Brazil, Russia, India, China, and South Africa, regarding the possibility of reducing their reliance on the US dollar for trade. A summit held in Russia in October focused on increasing local currency transactions, a move that Trump has now vowed to challenge. “The idea that the BRICS Countries are trying to move away from the Dollar while we stand by and watch is OVER,” Trump wrote, warning that any country attempting to replace the dollar with another currency would face significant tariff hikes.
