Biplab Deb: Setting up industries take crores, cows will ensure earnings in 6 months
New Delhi : Tripura Chief Minister Biplab Deb Sunday announced the state government will be launching a scheme to distribute cows among 5000 families in order to combat malnutrition and generate employment in the state. Speaking at an executive committee meeting of Tripura Pradesh Krishak Morcha on Sunday, Deb said 5,000 farmers across the state would be given cows by facilitating bank loans for them. Interest on such loans will be paid by the state government. Biplab, who had earlier insisted on rearing cows as means of employment for the youth, said that unlike setting up big industries in which “one has to invest Rs 10,000 crore for employing 2000 people”, giving 10,000 cows to 5,000 families will help people start earning in “6 months”. BJP spokesperson Nabendu Bhattacharya issued a press statement quoting the Chief Minister and said the exercise to identify villages for this scheme will be started. Beneficiaries from these villages would be provided the livestock. The milk produced by the cows will be procured, and then marketed, by the government.

Mayoral election at Gandhinagar Municipal Corporation turns violent
Gandhinagar : Violence marked the general board meeting of Gandhinagar Municipal Corporation in Gujarat’s capital during which the mayor, deputy mayor and standing committee chairman were to be elected. The meeting was delayed by almost 90 minutes following a ruckus over Congress councillor Ankit Barot’s alleged abduction by the BJP. Some councillors also got injured in the scuffle. Later, BJP candidates Rita Patel and Natha Ghanghar were elected mayor and deputy mayor respectively. CJ Chavda, a Congress MLA from Gandhinagar North, said, “BJP started the fight as they abducted our councillor Ankit Barot on Sunday. Why did they abduct our councillor even after they had majority 17 members in the corporation? They misused power, changed the Dalit municipal commissioner overnight and gave charge to the collector.” BJP refuted all the allegations levelled by the Congress. BJP State Secretary KC Patel said, “Congress resorted to violence as they did not have a majority. It is their internal
problem; they are divided into factions. All Congress councillors seemed to be in a race to prove who could cause maximum disturbance. Why would we kidnap a Congress councillor when we have a majority?” Gandhinagar municipal election has 32 members; both parties had won 16 each seats. Congress councillor Pravin Patel had defected to BJP and become the mayor. The matter went to the high court and is scheduled to be heard on November 22. After Pravin Patel’s defection, BJP has 17 members in GMC while Congress was left with 15. During the board meeting, 17 members of the BJP and 14 members of the Congress remained present. In the election, BJP’s Rita Patel defeated Congress’s Pinki Patel by 15-14 for Mayor’s post while BJP’s Naja Ganghar defeated Congress’s Jitu Rayka by 1614 to become the Deputy Mayor. The outcome of the Mayor’s election will be submitted to the high court on November 22 as the matter is sub judice.
To save the country, behen-beti, culture, bring back BJP: Sants
New Delhi : After two days of deliberations dominated by the demand for a Ram temple in Ayodhya, the Akhil Bharatiya Sant Samiti Sunday asked the union government to bring an ordinance or a law to build the temple. The sadhus also appealed to followers and to Hindus in general to ensure that the Narendra Modi government returns to power in 2019. People should vote for those who have faith in “cow, Ganga, Geeta, Gayatri and Govind”, they said. The Sant Samiti announced
three more “dharma sabhas” — in Ayodhya, Nagpur, and Bengaluru — on November 25, and a larger congregation of sadhus in Delhi on December 9. From December 18 onwards, 500 more such meetings would be held across the country, they said. Reading from the “dharmadesh” of sants on various issues, Samiti head Hansdevacharya said, “Agar jeevit rehna hai, math-mandir bachana hai, behen-beti bachani hai, sanskriti aur sanskar bachana hai to iss sarkar ko dobara se laana hai (If we have to protect our lives.
Maneka Gandhi slams killing of tigress Avni, targets Maharashtra minister New Delhi : Union women and child development Minister Maneka Gandhi has lashed out at her party colleague, Maharashtra Minister for Environment and Forests Sudhir Mungantiwar, over what she termed as the “ghastly murder” of the man-eater tigress Avni (T1) in Yavatmal on Friday night. Maneka said that she would pursue the issue “legally, criminally as well as politically”. “I will be writing to CM Maharashtra to take strong action in this matter,” she said. In a series of tweets and a press statement targetting Mungantiwar on Sunday, Maneka wrote: “I am deeply saddened by the way the tigress Avni has been murdered by a professional

anti-national killer at the behest of the minister in Yavatmal, Maharashtra. It is nothing but a straight case of crime. Despite requests from his own forest department and people all over India, Sudhir Mungantiwar, Minister for Environment and Forests, Maharashtra gave orders for the killing.” Mungantiwar responded by pointing out that the Supreme Court had allowed the tigress to be shot and that it was done only after it tried to attack forest officials who attempted to tranquilise it. Asked about Maneka’s comments, Mungantiwar said: “In her heart, she has a lot of love for animals but along with it, I am sure, there is love for human beings also.”
Of the 13 people killed in tiger attacks in the Pandharkawada divisional forest in over two years, five deaths were attributed to Avni. The tigress was hunted down in the forests of Maharashtra’s Yavatmal district on Friday as part of an operation. She was shot by marksman Asgar Ali, son of well-known sharpshooter Nawab Shafat Ali. The six-year old tigress is survived by her two cubs who are 10 months old. Maneka pointed out in her statement that the “ghastly murder has put two cubs at the edge of a sad death” and this is the third such instance where a tiger was killed on directions of the Environment and Forest Minister.

Successive central govts underspent on health, education: Shashi Tharoor New Delhi : Successive governments at the Centre had underspent in the heath and education sectors, Congress MP Shashi Tharoor claimed on Sunday. Participating in an interactive session organised by the Indian Chamber of Commerce, Tharoor said, “Health and education are vital sectors and the central government needs to prioritise far more than what it has done so far. Here, I would not exempt even my previous governments because over 70 years, expenditure on health and education, whoever in the government, has been modest.” The Congress MP said allocation for education and health in government’s budget was low. He laid stress on the need to spend more to help the poor and invest more in public sector hospitals. Tharoor was of the view that insurance companies have gained a lot through governmentbacked insurance schemes.
BJP accuses Chidambaram of mocking Ram temple initiative, Sardar Patel New Delhi : The BJP Monday accused Congress leader P Chidambaram of “mocking” the “Ram temple initiative” and Sardar Vallabhbhai Patel’s statue, saying the former Union minister’s comments were “highly irresponsible and very provocative”. Union Law Minister Ravi Shankar Prasad said it was a case of “classic hypocrisy” that while Congress president Rahul Gandhi visits temples and portrays himself as a ‘Shiv Bhakt’, a senior leader of his party was making such comments. Prasad’s attack on the Congress came after Chidambaram tweeted targeting the Modi government. “At the beginning of five years, the promise is for Development, Jobs and Money in every citizen’s bank account. Nothing achieved, at the end of five years, the new promise is for grand Temples, giant Statues and Doles,” the Congress leader had tweeted. Prasad said Chidambaram is obviously mocking the Ram temple initiative and the Patel’s Statue of Liberty, the tallest in the world. “Please stop it. Don’t play with sentiments,” he said, asking Gandhi to make his stand clear on the issue and demanding that he and his mother Sonia Gandhi express regret.

INS Arihant completes first deterrence patrol, PM Narendra Modi lauds ‘historic’ moment
New Delhi : India’s first indigenous nuclear submarine INS Arihant Monday returned from its first deterrence patrol, successfully completing the establishment of the country’s survivable nuclear triad. The crew of the Strategic Strike Nuclear Submarine (SSBN) were felicitated by Prime Minister Narendra Modi, who lauded the accomplishment calling it “historic” and a “fitting response to those who indulge in nuclear blackmail.” Congratulating the crew, Modi said “Today is historic because it marks the completing of the successful establishment of the nuclear triad. India’s nuclear triad will be an important
pillar of global peace and stability,” he said, adding that “our nuclear programme must be seen with regard to India’s efforts to further world peace and stability.” “True to its name, INS Arihant will protect the 130 crore Indians from external threats and contribute to the atmosphere of peace in the region,” Modi said. INS Arihant or “destroyer of enemies” was launched in July 2009 at Ship Building Centre, Visakhapatnam in presence of former Prime Minister Manmohan Singh. India is the only country apart from Russia, China, France, UK, US to develop and operate a nuclear submarine.
Till last reports came in, combing operation by the forces in the area was underway.

Clearing the way for an investment uptick
The World Bank Doing Business (DB) rankings for 2019 bring timely relief for the Narendra Modi government. Amid the government’s various skirmishes on the political and economic fronts, India has climbed 23 spots to rank 77th globally. This is a substantial jump in the rankings for the second year running; last year, India jumped 30 notches. The government deserves credit for this sustained progress. That said, it is also important to remember precisely what the rankings mean— and what they don’t. This year, India registered improvement in areas like starting a business, dealing with construction permits, getting electricity, getting credit, paying taxes, and trading across borders. To the Modi government’s credit, it has undertaken targeted efforts to address shortcomings in these areas—for instance, the National Trade Facilitation Action Plan (NTFAP) 2017-2020 for increasing the efficiency of cross-border trade. Launched last year, it is putting in place the architecture for decreasing border and documentary compliance time, permitting exporters to electronically seal their containers at their own facilities, and reducing physical inspections to up to only 5% of all shipments. Likewise, the implementation of the single-window clearance system for construction permits in Delhi and the online building permit approval system in Mumbai are important. The trajectory of the construction industry has a significant impact on the Indian economy—both in terms of its importance for job creation and its effect on upstream industries like steel and cement. On other fronts, however, there has been stagnation or regression. Take the Insolvency and Bankruptcy Code (IBC), as critical a reform as any in recent times. India’s rank dropped from 103 to 108 here; its overall score did not decline significantly, but that is not something to celebrate. The sluggish rate of resolution of cases that have come under the IBC is becoming a major roadblock. And as Business Standard reported last week, of the 212 cases that have ended in liquidation—almost 80% of those that have completed the IBC process— the resolution value was greater than the liquidation value in 30 cases that ended in the latter anyway. Creditors choosing to take a deeper haircut, and the small percentage of companies going the resolution way, imply kinks in the resolution process that need to be worked out. Then there is the goods and services tax (GST), perhaps the Modi government’s biggest achievement. There has been an improvement in India’s “paying taxes” score—the decline in its relative rank on this front notwithstanding—but it remains below 100. Besides, the number of hours taken in a year to file taxes rose to 275.4 from 214 last year.

I am an Nicki Minaj’s ticket introvert: sales dipped Chitrangada
Mumbai: Recently seen in Bazaar, Chitrangada Singh has mostly been playing oppidan roles, that showcase her as an over-confident woman, but the actress says that reality is otherwise. “Usually the kind of roles that I portray are that of a seductress. Actually, they are powerful and wide in its interpretation. But I don’t think I have ever been confident enough. I have always been an introvert,” she says. “Instead, my brother is a complete extrovert. I have never been very confident as a child. I still don’t think I am confident about a lot of things,” she adds. And according to the actress, merely looking sexy can never define one’s confidence.

New Delhi : Nicki Minaj is keeping her fingers crossed as ticket sales for her tour have not just dipped, but apparently not even a single date of the tour as been sold out yet, reports DailyMail. co.uk. A source close to the rapper said, “Nicki is a big name in the industry but she is becoming known more for the drama around what she says and does rather than her music. Her feud with Cardi B has turned a lot of people off her and even
getting Future involved in the tour hasn’t shifted tickets. Thousands and thousands of tickets for her show remain unsold and it’s just not good at all, especially as she already had to postpone her US dates earlier this year because her album wasn’t ready.” But the rapper gave quite a glitzy performance on Sunday at the MTV EMAs and is hoping that the performance will rake up the ticket sales!

Aamir Khan speaks up on hiked ticket prices for Thugs Of Hindostan
New Delhi : Thugs Of Hindostan starring megastars Amitabh Bachchan and Aamir Khan, is all set for a release on November 8. While most are eager to watch the film, the sky-high ticket prices do prove to be an obstacle for the common man, who has to think thrice before
emptying their pockets. The price of one ticket goes up to Rs. 1,800 which isn’t even the cost of popcorn and pepsi included with the film. When Aamir was told about the same, his reaction was that of eyeballs popping out, post which he said, “I personally believe that ticket price should be cheaper and

be worth it. “Having said that, TOH is an expensive film and I understand why the YRF distributors are doing this. But I would say that Indian audience has not seen such a spectacle of the film, so it would be worth their money,” said the National award-winning actor.

Sensex drops 61 points on negative global cues, weak rupee
Mumbai: The benchmark BSE Sensex dropped 61 points and settled below the 35,000 mark on Monday, tracking weak Asian stocks amid uncertainty around the China-US trade war, fall in rupee and unabated foreign fund outflows. The Sensex fell below the 35,000-level to touch a low of 34,811.60 due to heavy selling pressure in view of foreign capital outflows and weak global cues. However, fag-end buying helped trimming losses and the index closed at 34,950.92 with a fall of 60.73 points, or 0.17 per cent. The gauge had rallied almost 580 points on Friday. The broader NSE Nifty, after slipping below the 10,500-mark to hit a low of 10,477, finally concluded 29
points, or 0.27 per cent, down at 10,524. The rupee depreciated 67 paise, to 73.12 (intra-day) against the dollar too had a negative influence. Market was volatile in a narrow range due to weak global cues and selling pressure in pharma, FMCG and auto, analysts said. “Rupee weakened on account of crunch in domestic liquidity while gradual decline in yield may ease the concern. Investors’ were bit conservative in the holiday shortened week due to uncertainty regarding US china trade deal and Fed policy,” they added. Meanwhile, foreign institutional investors (FIIs) sold shares worth a net of Rs 196.90 crore, while domestic institutional investors (DIIs) bought shares to the tune of Rs 852.99 crore.

Spanish league and federation split over 2nd game in US
Madrid : Another game, another argument. The sports and entertainment group backing the Spanish league’s bid to take a regular-season soccer game to the United States says it was contacted by the Spanish federation to discuss holding a separate game — the Super Cup final — in the country. The federation, which has raised its concerns over the planned BarcelonaGirona league game
near Miami in January, denied the claim by the Relevent group on Sunday. The federation said it had never sought the help of any company to take the “Supercopa” to the U.S. In Spain, the league oversees the first and second divisions, while the federation organizes tournaments such as the Super Cup and the Copa del Rey. The Super Cup pits the Spanish league champion against the Copa del Rey winner in a onematch final at the start of the season.

Excessive competition can at times put particular sector under stress: Jaitley
New Delhi: Excessive competition at times can result in stress in a particular sector, Finance Minister Arun Jaitley said pointing out that these are challenges of the growing economy. He also said that with the growing economy, the role of each regulator will expand. “Excessive competition at times can result in pricing of nature that the sector of the economy itself feels stressed because everybody then tends to follow the leader,” he said at an event organised by anti-trust regulator Competition Commission
of India. “Therefore, what do you do in a such situation of this kind. These are all challenges which are going to emerge as economy moves further and expands further,” he said. If the current growth rate continues for a decade or two, he said, Indian economy expansion is going to be exponential. “The size is going to increase, the size of industry is going to increase, the size of services sector will increase and the role of each regulator while exercising self restraint will also expand,” he said.

It has introduced three brands -Livfit, Aastha and Sanskar-- targeting customers across all age groups. “This year, we would have a network of 100 stores ranging between 500-2,500 sq feet. We are aiming a turnover of around Rs 1,000 crore in the next fiscal,” said Baba Ramdev. He further added:” It would also be available online by next year. We are working on it.” While Sanskar would be a range of menswear, Aastha is a women’s brand and Livfit would have a
range of sportswear and Yoga dresses. “Our target is to compete with multinational companies in this field such as adidas, Puma,” he said adding the Paridhan range would be around 30-40 per cent cheaper and would target ordinary people. The company may plan
to have standalone store of its three brands, depending on the catchment area and availability of space, said K M Singh, who is heading the apparel business of Patanjali. According to Ramdev, in textile industry, 90 per cent sales is through unorganised segment and the branded segment accounts only 10 per cent, in which there is hardly any Indian brand. “We want ordinary people to feel proud of wearing domestic brand,” he added. Besides, Paridhan would have a range of artificial jewellery and wedding clothes which would be at least 40 per cent cheaper than rivals, he claimed. Range of Patanjali jeans would start from Rs 500, shirt (Rs 500-1,700). Paridhan would have around 1,100 options along with 3,500 SKUs of menswear, womenswear, kidswear, denim and accessories.

international UK opens up armed forces recruitment to more Indians
London : The UK government on Monday announced a relaxation of recruitment criteria to allow Commonwealth nationals to apply for jobs in its armed forces in order to meet a shortage in its ranks. The Commonwealth is an association of 53 independent states, including India. The Ministry of Defence (MoD) laid out the proposals in a written ministerial statement (WMS) before Parliament, which involves a waiver of the current requirement of a minimum of five-year residency in the UK for applying to join the country’s Army, Navy or Air Force. This would open up the forces to recruits who have been based in countries like India, Australia, Canada and Kenya and meet the necessary recruitment criteria for the service and role they wish to join. “We have now decided to remove the five-year UK residency criterion for Commonwealth citizens and increase recruitment to 1,350 across the Royal Navy, British Army and Royal Air Force (RAF),” the MoD statement reads. “Applications will be accepted from all Commonwealth countries, although in order to mitigate the risks associated with unaccompanied minors travelling to the UK without the guarantee of a job, we will not be accepting applications from those under 18,” the statement adds.
Jamal Khashoggi killing: Saudis sent ‘clean-up’ team to erase evience, Turkish official says
Ankara : Saudi Arabia sent a two-man “clean-up team” to erase evidence of journalist Jamal Khashoggi’s killing a week after he disappeared at the Saudi consulate in Istanbul, a Turkish official said on Monday, calling it a sign top Saudi officials knew of the crime. Confirming a report in Turkey’s progovernment Sabah newspaper, the official said the chemist and toxicologist were tasked with erasing evidence before Turkish investigators were given access to the Saudi consulate and consul’s residence. Sabah identified the two men as Ahmed Abdulaziz al-Jonabi and Khaled Yahya al-Zahrani, saying they arrived in Turkey as part of an 11-person team sent to carry out the inspections with Turkish officials. Khashoggi, a Washington Post columnist critical of the Saudi government and its de facto ruler Crown Prince Mohammed bin Salman, disappeared at the consulate on Oct. 2. Saudi officials initially insisted Khashoggi had left the consulate, then said he died in an unplanned “rogue operation”. The kingdom’s public prosecutor Saud al-Mojeb later said he was killed in a premeditated attack. Turkish and Saudi officials have carried out joint inspections of the consulate and consul’s residence in Istanbul, but President Tayyip Erdogan says some Saudi officials are still trying to cover up the crime. Ankara has also demanded Riyadh cooperate in finding Khashoggi’s body, which Istanbul’s chief prosecutor said had been dismembered.

Washington : The Trump administration has said it is confident that “the toughest ever” sanctions against Iran which came into effect on Monday will have the intended effect to alter the Iranian regime’s behaviour, even as it dodged a question on whether the US has firm commitments from India and China to stop all oil purchases from Tehran within six months. Meanwhile, Iran President Hassan Rouhani said the Islamic republic “will proudly bypass sanctions”. “I announce that we will proudly bypass your illegal, unjust sanctions because it’s against international regulations,” Rouhani said in a televised speech. The sanctions cover Iran’s banking and energy sectors and reinstate penalties for countries and companies in Europe, Asia and elsewhere that do not halt Iranian oil imports. India and China — the two biggest buyers of Iranian crude, have so far appeared to have skipped the punitive American sanctions targeting the Iranian oil and financial sectors. The two Asian giants are believed to be among the eight countries that have been given the rare exemptions from the Iranian sanctions that kicked off on Monday The Trump administration said it has asked these countries including Turkey, Iraq, Italy, Japan and South Korea to bring down their oil purchase to zero as soon as possible. US Secretary of State Mike Pompeo, during a talk show on Fox News, repeatedly parried questions when asked about the commitment from India and China on zero-oil purchase from Iran.
