infructuous if the Delhi Court sends him to Tihar jail at the end of his CBI custody later in the day. Sibal had started his arguments on Chidambaram’s petition

After completing the sortie, Air Chief Marshal Dhanoa said it was a pleasure to fly with Wing Commander Varthaman who is back as a MiG-21 instructor. “It was a
pleasure for me to fly with Abhinandan because he has got his flying category back, that is what

He has been back in less than 6 months,” he said On a lighter note, Air Chief Marshal Dhanoa said he and Abhinandan had two things in common — ejecting from their aircraft and fighting Pakistan. “Both of us have two things in common — first, both of us ejected (laughs) and second, both of us have fought Pakistanis.

on being heard, telling the top court that the former minister couldn’t be sent to Tihar jail at his age. He will turn 74 later this month. Sibal, who is also a senior Congress leader, asked the court to give him bail till his petition against the CBI remand is heard or place him under house arrest. When Justice Banumathi stayed firm that the competent court dealing with the case should hear the bail plea, Sibal prayed for placing the former minister under house arrest.

Create a social contract between the State and its most alienated citizens Close to a month has passed since the Union government bifurcated Jammu and Kashmir and removed Article 370. What do the tea leaves say? Diplomatically, India has much to show for itself. While China and Pakistan responded with anger, most nations have been cautious. A fatigue with Kashmir as a global issue is apparent. The mixing of popular disaffection with Islamist currents and terror networks has contributed to this. As such, structured international opinion seems ready to give India room. Such patience is not absolute. It is contingent on minimal violence, particularly if worsened by Indian security forces. Further, while it is accepted that a limiting of civil liberties and telecom services was inevitable in the immediate aftermath — to prevent instigation of violence — an early return to normality is essential. Admittedly “normality” is a contested expression in Kashmir; whatever it may mean, the release of detained politicians is a touchstone. Given the relative absence of significant protests and violence — the biggest crowds, in Soura, are estimated at a manageable 4,000 strong — the government has survived a critical phase. Gradual easing of restrictions has begun. Yet there is much to do, and India cannot do it fast enough. For any democracy, civil liberties are not merely an external credibility test; they represent a commitment to cherished national principles. What does the medium-term hold? Prime Minister Narendra Modi’s government has predicated its recent actions on a better deal for the Kashmir valley. Countering radicalism and terrorism are necessary here, but by themselves, not sufficient. What Modi will ultimately be judged by is his willingness to preserve and indeed enhance the ordinary Kashmiri’s dignity. This calls for a new social contract between the Indian State and its most alienated citizens.

Sunny Deol, famous for his ‘dhai kilo ka haath’, is launching his son Karan Deol this year with the upcoming film Pal Pal Dil Ke Paas. Also featuring Sahher Bambba, the romantic drama has been directed by Sunny himself and produced by Sunny Sounds P Ltd and Zee Studios. It is slated to hit theatres on 20th September and the adventure packed trailer has left viewers excited to watch it.In a recent chat with PTI, Sunny opened up about his son’s decision to pursue acting. He shared, “I asked him if he was absolutely sure about this. This is a profession which can hurt you, damage you. We have to be strong enough to face whatever comes our way. One needs to have love, passion and talent here. Acting is a compilation of a lot of realities of life which have to be brought together. I told him I support his decision. As a father, I’ll be around him but eventually only he has to do everything.”He went on to share his experience of working with Karan on the sets of Pal Pal Dil Ke Paas. Sunny said, “On set, you’re not reminded every second that he’s your son. When the camera is on, he’s a character, an actor. If I don’t get what I am looking for, I’ll be at it. I don’t feel something cannot be done. Lets at least give it a try? My whole journey has been like this. If you see my career, lots of my films have been with newer directors, producers, because that’s the kind of a personality I have.

As we speak, Arjun Kapoor and ladylove Malaika Arora are vacationing in Austria and although these two haven’t been posting their pictures together on social media but they have definitely turned photographers for each other. And in the latest, 45-year-old Malaika Arora posted a solo picture on Instagram wherein she was seen giving a side pose wearing white glares and alongside the photo, Mala wrote, “Happy Sunday” No points for guessing that Ki & Ka actor Arjun Kapoor clicked this amazing photo of Malaika but what caught our attention was Arjun Kapoor’s uncle aka Sanjay Kapoor’s comment on the photo which read, “Your in house photographer is doing a good job.” To tease all their fans, Arjun Kapoor and Malaika Arora are posting solo pictures clicked at the same location and although we love their clicks but we wouldn’t mind a couple photo, isn’t it?

Saaho box office collection day 3: Prabhas starrer records highest Sunday of 2019, beats Kabir Singh, Bharat, Mission Mangal
Mumbai: Shraddha Kapoor has had an amazing run at the box office since Stree. Saaho is her entry into south Indian film industry, and she has two more film releases this year. In this interview with indianexpress.com, Shraddha opens up about working with Prabhas, and her upcoming film Saaho Saaho is being called the biggest action film from India. It is your first actioner and debut south Indian film. How do you feel? For the last two years, everybody has worked so hard on the film. And now as the release date is coming closer and closer, I get nervous just like I do before all my releases. It seems like you have a magic touch as many filmmakers want to work with you. First Stree, now Saaho and then you have two more releases – Chhichhore and Street Dancer 3D?I don’t have the magic touch. The magic touch is with the audience. They are the ones to decide if they want to watch a movie or not. It is in their hands whether they want to see me in the movie or not.Now that you have done your first south Indian film, how open are you to doing more films down south?I would love to do it if they offer me more. However, Saaho is a multilingual film.
Vicky Kaushal thanks his fans for their tremendous response to his music video 'Pachtaoge
M u m b a i : Vi c k y Kaushal's music video 'Pachtaoge' received tremendous response from everyone post its release a few weeks back. Vicky Kaushal, who is currently one of the most sought after actors of the Bollywood film industry, has collaborated with ace dancer Nora Fatehi in the video which has been helmed by Arvind Khaira. The fans have literally enjoyed the dramatic and at the same time, emotional performance by Vicky and Nora in the video.
Ayushmann Khurrana says over the years, he has ‘witnessed a beautiful relationship’ between Lord Ganesha and devotees; adds the ‘god of beginnings’ symbolises prosperity.
Shraddha Kapoor on celebrating Ganesh Chaturthi: I get to catch up with all my relatives during this time Shraddha Kapoor was last seen in Saaho opposite Prabhas and next, she will be seen romancing Sushant Singh Rajput in Nitesh Tiwari’s Chhichhore and the film will hit the screens on September 6, 2019.
Mumbai : Shraddha Kapoor is riding high on the success of Prabhas starrer Saaho as the film is performing stupendously well at the box office and therefore, we are sure that this Ganesh Chaturthi is going to be extra special for this Aashiqui 2 actress. As we all know, since the past few months, Shraddha Kapoor has been shuttling from one film set to another and with the release of Saaho, Shraddha is now busy with the promotions of Nitesh Tiwari’s Chhichhore. But since the nation celebrates Ganesh Chaturthi today, Shraddha will make sure that she takes out time from her busy schedule and spends time at home with family. “It has been extremely hectic but I am trying my best to come out of work mode and be at home for Ganpati, even if it’s for a short while, as this is one festival that’s close to my heart,” says Kapoor. On the festival of Ganesh Chaturthi, Shraddha Kapoor recollects the fond memories of her childhood as she says that her first ever modak was given to her by her nani. Besides gorging on the yummy food, Shraddha says that the best thing about the festival is that she gets to catch up with all her relatives. “While growing up, all my cousins, aunts and uncles would come to the house and we would do the aarti together,” says Shraddha. But what is interesting is that on the festival of Ganesh Chaturthi, Shraddha Kapoor would sing in front of everyone since her grandfather, Pandharinath Kolhapure, was a classical singer and they’d have a musical evening. “I’d be extremely nervous to sing in front of everyone but I would, and I gradually got better with each year,” she smiles. Talking about Saaho, Shraddha says that she is feeling really good and grateful. “It’s my first pan-Indian film and for it to have such a wide reach and acceptance feels really good.

New Delhi: Rishabh Pant might not be having the best of times with the bat in the West Indies, but the 21- year-old has been solid behind the stumps. While the young wicketkeeper has scored just 58 runs at an average of 19.33 in three innings in the Test series in the West Indies, he has taken a total of eight catches so far in the two Tests. On Day 3 of the second Test, Rishabh Pant caught Kraigg Brathwaite off the bowling of Ishant Sharma in West Indies' second innings to register his 50th Test dismissal as a wicketkeeper. Rishabh Pant reached the milestone in only his 11th Test, same as Adam Gilchrist, thus surpassing MS Dhoni to become the fastest Indian wicketkeeper to 50 Test dismissals.MS
Dhoni had taken 15 Tests to reach the landmark. The overall list is headed by three cricketers -- MarkBoucher, Jonny Bairstow and Tim Paine -- all of whom claimed 50 dismissals in just 10 Tests.

Injured Novak Djokovic out of US Open after retiring during fourth-round match against Stan Wawrinka
New Delhi : We are fast approaching the festive season, where apart from having celebrations with friends and family, it is customary, or should I say auspicious to purchase gold or book a property. And, as we know that change is the only constant, are these product categories still relevant? Is it worthwhile to invest in these traditional and tangible asset classes? Gold has been looked as an inflation hedge, a safe haven since time immemorial. Over the last many decades, its returns (compounded annualised) has been in the range of 6-7%. Given that so many of us are hit by lifestyle inflation of around 8-9%, it may not make sense to keep investing in gold. Buying it for ornamental reasons or emotional reasons or for your child’s marriage, adds an absolutely different spin and starts making sense.Investing across various products and diversifying across different
asset classes, how, when and how much to invest, the spending habits, writing a will, taking a loan (for needed and unneeded stuff), budgeting one’s expenses, purchasing a pure insurance product, are all done at a human level and, clients’ behaviour, his past experiences, childhood memories about money and it’s uses and, his ability to understand risk are more emotional than logical. Benjamin Graham has very rightly said, “The investor’s chief problem, and even that of his worst enemy, is likely to be himself.” We tend to make most such decisions habitually, as is said, “We make habits and then they make us”. In my experience, my key role as a financial planner is to keep nudging the client towards what he needs (especially in terms of necessity of taking risk to earn returns in excess of inflation and taxes), keep reminding him to be patient on long-term equity.

India’s biggest bank overhaul in decades may hurt the nation’s bad loan clean-up and slow the lending approvals needed to reverse its economic slum
New delhi : Prime Minister Narendra Modi’s government late Friday surprised observers by announcing several state bank mergers, a move it said would create larger, healthier lenders. While that may be true in the long-term, analysts predict that the efforts may be hurt by a near-term shift in management attention to aligning resources such as personnel, technology and branch networks. “Recent precedence shows the amalgamation process takes up to six months and management bandwidth of the merging banks may get

The survey comes after official figures showed India's economy grew at an annual rate of 5.0% last quarter, its slowest in more than six years and significantly weaker than 5.7% in a Reuters poll.The Nikkei Manufacturing Purchasing Managers' Index, compiled by IHS Markit, declined to
51.4 in August from July's 52.5, its weakest since May 2018. However, it has remained above the 50-mark separating growth from contraction for more than two years."August saw an undesirable combination of slowing economic growth and greater cost inflationary pressures in the Indian manufacturing industry," Pollyanna De Lima, principal economist at IHS Markit, said in a release. A sub-index tracking overall demand hit its weakest in more than a year and foreign orders increased at their slowest pace in 16 months.
Oil falls as U.S., China add more tariffs in trade war To k y o : O i l p r i c e s weakened on Monday after new tariffs imposed by the United States and China came into force, raising concerns about a further hit to global growth and demand for crude. Brent crude slipped 22 cents, or 0.4%, to $59.03 a barrel by 0620 GMT, while U.S. oil was down 2 cents at $55.083 at barrel. The United States began imposing 15% tariffs on a variety of Chinese goods on Sunday - including footwear, smart watches and flat-panel televisions - as China put new
duties on U.S. crude, the latest escalation in a bruising trade war. U.S. President Donald Trump said both sides would still meet for talks later this month. Trump, writing on Twitter, said his goal was to reduce U.S. reliance on China and he again urged American companies to find alternate suppliers outside China. Beijing's levy of 5% on U.S. crude marks the first time the fuel had been targeted since the world's two largest economies started their trade war more than a year ago.

Swachh CITY: Model provides incentives for Dumping waste in bin Ahmedabad :As the Ahmedabad Municipal Corporation (AMC) make a push for waste segregation, a group of school students has made a model wherein the garbage bin itself would segregate the waste. The model nicknamed the i-bin, includes a system in which a person receives a monetary incentive for dumping waste in it. The group of students who won the first prize in the science exhibition contest held by LD Engineering Students is now busy making a prototype of their model in the Atal Tinkering Lab. The
bin is the brainchild of Sawan Patel, Deependra Khatri and Vijay Suthar. Interestingly, Patel and Khatri are class 11 commerce student while Suthar is a class 10 student of Shri Rajnikant Vyas
and Chandraketu Pandya English Medium School of Ahmedabad. Shefali Pardhan, a mathematics teacher who was one of the guides for the project, said that the model works on the principle of the
dustbin sensing the sort of waste that is being dumped in it. "So once the waste is dumped in it, the bin will itself sort it out into paper, plastic, metal and biodegradable waste," said Pradhan. She further added, in case of waste like plastic, it would also automatically compress it so that the bin does not get filled up fast. "Moreover, it will have a provision where every time the bin is halffilled, the company that is supposed to get the waste will get an automatic alert to come and empty it," said the mathematics teacher.

As history tells us that we have always found a way of breaking the law
Ahmedabad : As I suffer the CG Road daily by living off it, I must admit that it has made me a calmer and wiser person. As I go past broken roads, illegal parking and general mess created by lawlessness of India, I have no option but to intellectualise my frustration and observe the chaos around me as an interesting interplay of systems. As CG Road is now getting revamped, I am forced to imagine that there is some invisible method in the apparent madness

Ahmedabad : The Gujarat government on Sunday announced that it will give a second agriculture power connection to farmers from the tribal belt with a survey number land of four-acre or more. The state in a release said that the decision was taken to benefit small farmers, particularly in tribal areas of the state where landholdings are not big enough to get a second power connection for agriculture."The farmer with the requisite land size needs to approach concerned authorities with the necessary documents to get a second power connection for agriculture," the
government said in a release. It said the decision will benefit lakhs of farmers in the Central and South Gujarat region.

The state had before the 2017 assembly elections, announced that it would allow farmers a second agriculture power connection for land that measured eight-acre or more, thus agreeing to a long-pending demand of the farming community Earlier the government had informed the house that in the year 2016 and 2017, a total of 1.61 lakh applications from across the state were made for electricity for agricultural use. Of those, 81% of the applications remained pending for some or the other reason.
