    After 5 years, curtains are down finally for mythological drama ‘RadhaKrishn’

    [ad_1]

    Mumbai: As the mythological drama ‘RadhaKrishn’ has concluded after completing 1,145 episodes. Lead actors Sumedh Mudhgalkar and Mallika Singh, who played the lead roles of Lord Krishna and Radha, shared their experience of working for almost five years.

    Sumedh said: “It has been a privilege to play the character of Lord Krishna as several popular actors have enacted this character. Initially, it was a mammoth task to crack the assignment, but eventually, I realised that it was my journey and it was a competition against myself.”

    “It’s been almost five years, I have been associated with the show. Now the perceptions are changing, everything right from the set to the environment is changing. And suddenly you realise that you won’t be able to see these things again and thus you start appreciating them more. You suddenly feel emotional, I really cannot imagine my life after the show.”

    The mythological show based on the story of Lord Krishna and Radha, which premiered on October 1, 2018, was considered among the longest-running shows and a prequel to it also started, titled ‘Jai Kanhaiya Lal Ki’ in 2021 and ended in July 2022.

    Mallika, who played Radha recalled how tough it was initially for her to get into the skin of the character: “It was a wonderful experience to play the part of Radha, and I was overjoyed when I was offered the role in the TV series ‘RadhaKrishn’. At the initial stage, I found it a bit hard to cope but then gradually we had to multitask while getting into character, and I realised it was my journey where I learned a lot and adapted myself to all the challenges.”

    “Now the long journey has come to an end where I am emotional but also happy that I’ve made innumerable memories as well as good experiences. Though it is difficult to accept the fact that the show has come to an end, we will miss the set and crew members of the show since each and every person of the show has put their best to make this show a success,” she concluded.

    ‘RadhaKrishn’ aired on Star Bharat.

  • Man, who fled Delhi’s 5-star hotel without paying Rs 23 lakh bill sent to two-day custody

    Man, who fled Delhi’s 5-star hotel without paying Rs 23 lakh bill sent to two-day custody

    [ad_1]

    New Delhi: A Delhi court on Sunday remanded a man arrested for allegedly staying at a five-star hotel here for about four months by posing as a functionary of the UAE royal family and fleeing with an outstanding bill of more than Rs 23 lakh in two days’ police custody.

    Duty Magistrate Shivangi Vyas sent Mahamed Sharif for custodial interrogation, noting that police had to recover certain articles from his residence in Delhi, which were allegedly stolen by him.

    Sharif checked into The Leela Palace hotel on August 1 last year. He stayed in room number 427 for about four months and fled on November 20 with hotel valuables and without paying the bills, police told the court.

    “Considering the fact that the recovery of the case property — the stolen articles — are yet to be effected, accused Mahamed Sharif be remanded in police custody for two days,” the judge said.

    The accused impersonated a member of the royal family of the United Arab Emirates and booked the hotel room at a discounted price.

    He was apprehended on January 19 from Karnataka’s Puttur and four days’ transit remand was taken from a court in the southern state.

    The counsel for the accused opposed the police’s plea for remand, claiming that he was illegally arrested and no article was stolen.

    According to police, besides cheating the hotel to the tune of Rs 23.46 lakh, he decamped with valuables, including silver bottle holders.

    The accused registered himself at the hotel as an important functionary of the “Office of His Highness Sheikh Falah Bin Zayed Al Nahyan” of the UAE government and gave a fake business card, the police said.

    It claimed that the accused also provided a UAE resident card on arrival at the hotel.

  • Hyderabad: ASEEM protest for implementation of wealth tax

    Hyderabad: ASEEM protest for implementation of wealth tax

    [ad_1]

    Hyderabad: Members of the Association for Socio-economic Empowerment of the Marginalised (ASEEM) held a protest in Charminar on Sunday demanding the rich be taxed according to their wealth status in order to strip down wealth inequality.

    As per reports, India is currently the home to the largest number of poor in the world. ASEEM said that the wealth and income disparity can potentially impact future growth and development.

    S Q Masood from the civil society organisation spoke to Siasat.com, saying, “We need to understand that wealth tax is an important redistributive policy. We demand that governments all over the world should take steps to address the growing wealth inequality. We demand that the rich be taxed as per their income status, in other words, integrate the wealth tax policy into a larger fiscal policy framework.”

    Masoor added that it is the corporate sector’s responsibility to work with governments in creating an equal and stable society for a stronger economy.

    According to a report, there has been an enormous concentration of wealth and income in a few hands, more so at the time of recent COVID-19 pandemic. “Every counter in South Asia has a level of disposable income inequality high enough for it to be reducing per capita GDP growth by between 1% and 4%,” the report said.

    India has the highest income inequality.

    One of the main reasons for income inequality is disproportionate profiting, a highly regressive tax system, and a huge budget deficit.

  • CJI Chandrachud’s pitch for making SC judgments available in regional languages laudatory: PM Modi

    CJI Chandrachud’s pitch for making SC judgments available in regional languages laudatory: PM Modi

    [ad_1]

    New Delhi: Prime Minister Narendra Modi on Sunday lauded Chief Justice of India (CJI) DY Chandrachud’s emphasis on making Supreme Court judgments available in regional languages.

    “At a recent function, the Hon’ble CJI Justice DY Chandrachud spoke of the need to work towards making SC judgments available in regional languages. He also suggested the use of technology for it. This is a laudatory thought, which will help many people, particularly youngsters,” Modi wrote on Twitter and shared on the site the relevant clip of the CJI’s speech delivered at an event organised by the Bar Council of Maharashtra and Goa in Mumbai.

    The prime minister has in the past often pitched for making judicial verdicts more accessible to the common man by making those available in regional languages.

    “India has several languages, which add to our cultural vibrancy. The central government is undertaking numerous efforts to encourage Indian languages including giving the option of studying subjects like engineering and medicine in one’s Matru Bhasha (mother tongue),” Modi said in another tweet.

  • Debt per Indian increased by 2.53 times in 9 years of Modi govt: Congress

    Debt per Indian increased by 2.53 times in 9 years of Modi govt: Congress

    [ad_1]

    New Delhi: The Congress alleged on Sunday that debt, unemployment and inequality have risen in the country under the Narendra Modi government and the debt on every Indian has increased by 2.53 times in the last nine years.

    Congress spokesperson Gourav Vallabh said the astronomical increase in the government’s debt due to “Modinomics” has crushed the common people as the debt per Indian has increased from Rs 43,124 to Rs 1,09,373 since 2014.

    Former Congress president Rahul Gandhi alleged that the “friends” of Prime Minister Modi kept “picking pockets” as the media diverted public attention.

    “How did the wealth of the prime minister’s ‘favourite friend’ increase by eight times during the pandemic? How did the wealth of the prime minister’s ‘favourite friend’ increase by 46 per cent in one year? “The media kept diverting the attention of the public, while the ‘friends’ of the prime minister kept picking pockets. The earnings of the poor were stolen by ‘friends’,” Gandhi said in a tweet in Hindi.

    Vallabh alleged that the economy has witnessed a K-shaped recovery under the BJP-led regime and asked why the debt per Indian saw a 2.53-time jump in the last nine years.

    “From 1947 till March 31, 2014, the total debt of the Indian government increased to Rs 55.87 lakh crore. Why, in the last nine years, it grew to Rs 155.31 lakh crore, a jump of 2.77 times? “Why is the money borrowed just helping in a K-shaped recovery, with 50 per cent of the population owning three per cent of the country’s total wealth and ending up paying 64 per cent of the GST collected?” he asked at a press conference here.

    “The Modi government is burying our future generations in debt. The debt per Indian increased from Rs 43,124 to Rs 1,09,373 in the last nine years. The debt per Indian has become 2.53 times higher than what it was in 2014, in the last nine years of the Modi government,” Vallabh alleged.

    He said in absolute terms, the debt per Indian has increased by Rs 66,249 in the last nine years.

    According to the International Monetary Fund (IMF), for 2022, India’s debt to GDP was 83 per cent, far above other emerging markets and developing economies that have an average debt of 64.5 per cent, the Congress leader said.

    He cited figures of the outstanding internal and external debt and other liabilities of the Indian government.

    Vallabh said according to the Oxfam report, the wealthiest five per cent in India own more than 60 per cent of the country’s wealth, while the bottom half of the population (50 per cent) together share just three per cent of the wealth.

    On the other side, 64 per cent of the Rs 14.83 lakh crore collected in Goods and Services Tax (GST) came from the bottom 50 per cent of the population, with only three per cent of the amount coming from the top 10 per cent.

    “The above borrowing is just helping in a K-shaped recovery, with some sectors doing well but not others. The (COVID-19) pandemic hit the middle-and-low-income groups and small and medium industries harder. As a result, the growth in consumption (Private Final Consumption Expenditure or PFCE) fell from 25.9 per cent in the first quarter (Q1) of financial year 2022-23 to 9.7 per cent in the second quarter (Q2).

    To a question on the government blocking access to a BBC documentary on the 2002 Godhra riots, Vallabh said, “There is a scheme of the government of India called ‘Block in India’, like ‘Make in India’, ‘Startup India’. The government does not want difficult questions to be asked. If the BBC headquarters were in Delhi, the ED (Enforcement Directorate) might have been at their doorsteps by now.”

    ChatGPT to improve itself listening to Bageshwar Dham Sarkar

    [ad_1]

    Bageshwar Dham Sarkar alias Dhirendra Krishna Shastri has grabbed headlines off late after a Nagpur based anti-superstition organisation challenged his so-called miraculous power. Dhirendra Krishna Shastri, who is based in Chhatarpur region of Bundelkhand in Madhya Pradesh, is famous for rightly predicting people’s future and telling their problem without knowing much about it.

     

    While there are allegations that Bageshwar Dham Sarkar uses people’s social media posts to predict future, the west is looking at it as an opportunity. Reportedly, the new version of ChatGPT, chatbot launched by OpenAI, will incorporate the methodology used by Bageshwar Dham Sarkar.

     

    Bageshwar Dham Sarkar doesn’t have any patent or copyright on his methedology neither it’s in open for all, hence, ChatGPT will analyse the method and adopt the same in its latest version. ChatGPT’s newer version will ask for social media data and usage of its users to rightly predict about them. Details on this is awaited.

  • After India, China gives financing assurances to Sri Lanka for IMF bailout package

    After India, China gives financing assurances to Sri Lanka for IMF bailout package

    [ad_1]

    Colombo: China has given debt-ridden Sri Lanka the financing assurances required by the IMF to unlock a USD 2.9 billion bailout package for the country, days after India strongly backed the island nation’s efforts to secure the loan from the global lender to recover from its worst-ever economic crisis.

    The Sunday Times newspaper reported that China’s Exim Bank delivered a letter on Saturday granting Sri Lanka a two-year moratorium on repayment and agreeing with the International Monetary Fund’s extended fund facility (EFF).

    The report was confirmed by Sri Lankan officials who did not want to be named.

    The Chinese response came close on the heels of India stepping in first to issue the necessary assurances last week.

    India’s ministry of finance last week issued a letter to the IMF to confirm its support to Sri Lanka on the issue of debt restructuring, ahead of the visit by the external affairs minister S Jaishankar to Colombo which concluded on Friday.

    Jaishankar during his visit also announced that India has given the required assurances to Sri Lanka for the bailout package.

    Sri Lankan officials said that China had agreed to a short-term suspension of what Sri Lanka owed and expects Sri Lankan creditors to get together to work out the medium and long-term commitments.

    The IMF in September last year approved Sri Lanka a 2.9 billion dollar bailout package over 4 years pending Sri Lanka’s ability to restructure its debt with creditors — both bilateral and sovereign bond holders.

    By the end of June 2022, Sri Lanka owed nearly USD 40 billion to bilateral, multilateral and commercial loans, according to the figures released by the Treasury.

    Chinese loans amounted to 20 per cent of the total debt owed and 43 per cent of the bilateral loans.

    Sri Lanka in April declared its first-ever debt default in its history as the economic crisis triggered by forex shortages sparked public protests.

    Months-long street protests led to the ouster of the then president Gotabaya Rajapaksa in mid-July. Rajapaksa had started the IMF negotiations after rejecting to tap the global lender for support.

    With assurances from creditors, the 2.9 billion dollar facility could get the IMF board approval in March, officials said.

    Sri Lanka has introduced painful economic measures such as tax hikes and utility rate hikes. Trade unions and opposition groups have organised protests against such measures.

    The IMF bailout has been put on a halt as Sri Lanka pursues talks with creditors to meet the global lender’s condition for the facility to help it get through its worst economic crisis since independence in 1948. Earlier, Sri Lanka completed its debt restructuring talks with Japan.

    The IMF facility would enable the island nation to obtain bridging finance from markets and other lending institutions such as the ADB and the World Bank.
