India's Economy Is Booming, But Warning Signs Emerge

India grew by 6.1% in the three months ended March compared to a year earlier. India's booming economy is the envy of other major markets. But beyond the hype and expectation, people who watch the country closely are flagging warning signs. The country is heading for a slowdown, analysts say, as rising inequality squeezes consumer spending among the poor - and the hundreds of millions in the middle class. The pessimism comes even after the latest growth figures blew past estimates last week, rounding off an expansion of more than 7% for the fiscal year. "Consumer fatigue appears to be setting in," said Kunal Kundu, an economist with Societe Generale SA in Bengaluru. The economy may slow "substantially," he said. Any cooling - especially one driven by inequality - would pose a challenge for Prime Minister Narendra Modi as he seeks a third term in general elections next year. It would also increase the chances the central bank, which decides on monetary policy this week, will cut interest rates earlier than expected. And it would temper hope - at least in the short term - that India will do more to propel the global economy as powerhouses such as China slow. India grew by 6.1% in the three months ended March compared to a year earlier, well beyond the 5% estimate of economists surveyed by Bloomberg, driven mainly by increases in services exports and government spending. It expanded 7.2% for the fiscal year through March, continuing a post-pandemic recovery that outstrips major peers. But Nomura Holdings Inc., HSBC Holdings Plc, Standard Chartered Plc, Goldman Sachs Group Inc. and others say growth will decelerate this fiscal year, with Nomura seeing it falling to 5.5%. The banks pointed to other factors, such as the impact of rising borrowing costs on spending, and slowing global growth affecting exports. SocGen and others say consumer demand will decline as the nation's rich get richer but others struggle with the cost of living. That's creating what's known as a K-shaped recovery in consumption, where luxury items sell well but basic goods go in the opposite direction, Kundu said. Sarmishta Sarkar, a 35-year-old manager at a multinational food and beverage company, is putting off buying a compact car that she could drive to the office instead of braving Mumbai's notoriously crammed public transport. "Saving is difficult when living costs themselves are this high," she said. "I will wait until December." Private consumption fell 3.2% in the three months ended March from the previous quarter. This may be due to reduced spending by the urban middle class, which should come as a concern for the country's growth, said Rupa Rege Nitsure, chief economist at L&T Finance, the commercial and personal finance arm of India's largest construction company. "It's not a broad-based recovery," she said, adding this means it will be difficult to sustain. Even spending by the 65% of the population living in rural areas, a bright spot in the recent data after a strong harvest, is expected to slow if an El Nino weather pattern brings drought that disrupts the monsoon season, which plays a vital role in the lives of hundreds of millions of people who depend on agriculture. Two-wheeler vehicle sales, a key gauge of rural demand, remain below their pre-Covid levels. "When you look at volume growth, it's very apparent that there has been more stress" in India's hinterland compared to urban areas, Sanjiv Mehta, the outgoing managing director and chief executive officer of Unilever's Indian arm, said in an interview in Mumbai. "It's very understandable when you have this kind of inflation." One implication of a slowdown is likely to be on interest rates. All 40 economists surveyed by Bloomberg forecast the Reserve Bank of India will keep the repurchase rate unchanged on Thursday, after it unexpectedly paused its tightening cycle in April. But Nomura economist Sonal Varma expects the central bank to start cutting rates in October and to lower them by a total of 75 basis points. Another impact, at the margins, may be on PM Modi's prospects in the 2024 polls. India needs growth of 8% to 8.5% annually to employ the 90 million new nonfarm workers that will join the workforce by 2030, a McKinsey report in 2020 said. Despite the pessimism, there are many positives about India's economy. The services sector is booming, while a manufacturing purchasing managers' index reached a 31-month high in May. Tax collections hit a record in April, inflation is easing and foreign-exchange reserves are among the largest globally. Even with the expected slowdown, India will still be the fastest-growing major economy in the world this year, according to International Monetary Fund projections. Germany is in recession, some observers expect the US to follow, and the IMF projects China will grow 5.2% in 2023. HSBC raised its India growth forecast for the current fiscal year to 5.8% this week, up from 5.5%, saying GDP growth momentum has been "steady." And even if India slows in the short term, analysts remain bullish on its long-term prospects. "India is rising in the world order," Morgan Stanley equity strategist Ridham Desai and colleagues wrote in a report on the country's markets this month. But that's all little consolation to Sanjay Kumar Mishra, a 40-year-old security guard at a gated community on the outskirts of Mumbai. He shares a 10 square-meter room with five others, but there's only three in it at any time because people work two shifts. Mishra's wages have hardly changed since the before the pandemic even as inflation surged. He earns about 12,000 rupees ($145) a month. These days, he sends less money home to his family in a village in the northern state of Uttar Pradesh. And they, in turn, spend less. "There's no point arguing on salary," he said. "Somebody else is always ready to work for a thousand rupees less." (Except for the headline, this story has not been edited by NDTV staff and is published from a syndicated feed.)

LGBTQ Travelers Venture to Places Where Being Gay Is Illegal

A romantic island getaway in the Maldives. A safari in Kenya. A visit to the pyramids in Egypt. Apart from being popular on bucket lists, these vacations have one thing in common: Their destinations have strict anti-L.G.B.T.Q. legislation. In the Maldives, gay sex may be punished with lashes and up to eight years in prison. In Kenya, it can bring a sentence of up to 14 years. And in Egypt, the authorities are known to throw people in jail for simply waving a rainbow flag. Paradoxically, these trips are also all offered by travel companies founded by and catering to members of the L.G.B.T.Q. community. In interviews, the founders of four of these companies, which take a combined total of 3,000 tourists — most of them American — abroad each year, said they were providing a safe way to meet a growing demand for trips to countries that criminalize L.B.G.T.Q. people. “I’m gay and I want to visit these places,” said Darren Burn, the founder of Out of Office, an inclusive luxury travel company. “And if I want to visit these places, then there are other gay people who do, too. So if we can enable them to do it in a fun, exciting and safe way, then that’s exactly what we’re here for.”

A world that isn’t always friendly

By some metrics, certain L.G.B.T.Q. Americans have it easier when it comes to planning their next trip. Same-sex couples tend to have more disposable income because they are less likely to have children and more likely to both be employed, according to census data. Married gay men have the most spending power, with a median household income that is more than $25,000 higher than their straight and lesbian counterparts. Even so, being out and getting out can be at odds in a world where many places are hostile — and sometimes outright dangerous. “There is no place on earth where you can be 100 percent safe while being L.G.B.T.Q., at least while expressing it,” said Lucas Ramón Mendos, a lawyer and the research coordinator at ILGA World, an L.G.B.T.Q. human rights group. “What we can say for certain is that where there is a legal framework that strictly, explicitly criminalizes certain expressions, the likelihood of getting into trouble is a lot higher.” According to ILGA World maps that track the world’s sexual orientation laws, there are still more than 60 countries that criminalize consensual same-sex relations. Punishments range from incarceration to the death penalty. Uganda notably just enacted a law calling for life in prison for anyone convicted of having gay sex, and in some cases even death. Scratching those countries off the list of possible destinations shrinks the globe dramatically: parts of Asia, more than half of African countries, and practically the entire Middle East — with the exceptions of Israel and Jordan — become off-limits. (And that’s not even taking into account countries like China and Russia that target L.G.B.T.Q. people indirectly, by censoring speech, for example.) Yet L.G.B.T.Q. travel companies frequently visit such places. “I’ve never had an issue. I haven’t heard of anyone having issues,” said Bryan Herb, co-founder of Zoom Vacations, which operates small tours in countries such as Kenya, the Maldives, and Morocco, all places where gay sex can bring prison terms. “There’s no there there.”

Safer for some than for others

While U.S. diplomatic missions help Americans who get in trouble abroad, Angela Kerwin, a senior official at the Bureau of Consular Affairs, said they do not collect data in a way that would allow them to track cases involving L.G.B.T.Q. travelers specifically. “The laws that criminalize L.G.B.T.Q. status or conduct around the world are more often than not used to target and punish people from the country in question,” said Jessica Stern, the U.S. special envoy to advance the human rights of L.G.B.T.Q.I.+ persons. “That’s not to say that L.G.B.T.Q. Americans and their families aren’t at risk when they travel, but we are not the primary targets of those laws.” (For Americans who also carry a passport from the country they’re visiting, this guidance might not be as straightforward, Ms. Kerwin said. They might be treated as citizens by the local authorities.) None of the four travel company founders reported any clients who’d had legal run-ins, though some mentioned minor brushes with locals. Their clientele tends to be older and male, with transgender travelers a rarity. Safety concerns can be especially daunting for transgender people headed abroad. They already face hurdles to updating travel documents and are more likely to live in poverty than other L.G.B.T.Q. people. “I have recently had a flight canceled and they were rerouting me through a very hostile country for L.G.B.T.Q. folks, and I was going to be laid over there for nine hours,” said Jay Brown, a senior executive for the Human Rights Campaign, who is transgender. He asked not to name the country for fear it could hurt working relationships with advocates in the region. “If I had a health care emergency in that country, I don’t know what would happen to me,” he said. Mr. Brown ended up taking three trains and three flights in 26 hours to avoid the layover. “I ran from gate to gate at every airport, and ran from train to train,” he said. “My bag, of course, was not at my destination.” Most countries that criminalize same-sex relations lack a legal and regulatory framework when it comes to gender transition. “I wouldn’t say that because these laws target only homosexual acts, that transgender people are safe,” said Mr. Mendos. “It’s exactly the opposite, actually.”

Pink money in a gray zone

Many countries may just depend on the influx of tourist dollars so much that they’re willing to give tourists — whether straight or gay — special treatment. The tourism industry is a top contributor to Kenya’s gross domestic product and accounts for more than half a million jobs in Morocco. Hospitality also drives the economy in the Maldives, where three local men recently received prison sentences for having homosexual relations, while dozens more have been investigated. “In every country on earth, the law doesn’t necessarily match the reality,” said Mr. Burn, whose company offers package deals for symbolic same-sex marriages and honeymoons in the Maldives, which start at around $5,000 per person. “You know, it’s illegal to drink alcohol in the Maldives, but you go to every resort and you can drink alcohol.” It’s in that gray zone that L.G.B.T.Q. travel companies operate. Yet when they’re lining up suppliers and hiring local workers, they are anything but ambiguous. Robert Driscoll, who has run the small-tour operator Venture Out since 1998, said that to avoid unpleasant surprises, it was important to be “clear with suppliers about what the nature of the group is and making sure that they’re OK with it.” He said that years ago, when he first started taking gay Americans abroad, it wasn’t uncommon for his inquiries to suppliers to go unanswered. Now, he receives emails daily courting his business, some from unexpected places. “We would love the opportunity to work with your organization to create tailored itineraries for your LGBTQ+ travelers in Tanzania,” read a recent email he received from a small safari operator. Under a colonial-era law, Tanzania punishes consensual gay sex with up to life in prison, and in April, the government shut down thousands of websites and social media accounts linked to gay groups and people. Neighboring Kenya, also a popular safari destination, has recently experienced a rise in anti-L.G.B.T.Q. violence. Safaris are among the most expensive trips L.G.B.T.Q. travel companies offer, with prices running into the five digits. Mr. Driscoll, who has led many groups to watch wildlife in Africa, said he recently had a same-sex couple cancel their trip to Tanzania after reading a travel advisory on the State Department website warning travelers about “targeting of L.G.B.T.I. persons.” The Tanzania Tourist Board, as well as the tourism agencies of the other countries discussed in this article, did not reply to requests for comment.

Weighing the risks and ethics

Ms. Kerwin of the Bureau of Consular Affairs said prospective travelers should go beyond the State Department travel advisories and read the agency’s yearly human rights report, which includes detailed information on the situation of L.G.B.T.Q. rights for each country. “Never can you cover every eventuality,” she said. “But if you’re informed, then you can make a decision as to whether or not you actually want to travel to that country.” “Any legal and safety information we provide to clients before they pay us a deposit,” said Robert Sharp, a co-founder of Out Adventures, a small-tour operator based in Canada that serves a largely American clientele. “It is our moral and legal obligation to allow them to decide if it is right for them.” All travel companies surveyed for this article strongly recommend that clients take out travel insurance, and some even require it. Out of Office and Out Adventures also offer 24-hour hotlines to respond to clients’ questions and emergencies. Yet travel companies are not legal firms, and they say that the best they can do is give travelers enough information to make an informed decision. Out Adventures clearly states the laws and limitations of each destination on its website. When traveling to Tanzania, for example, clients are advised to practice discretion since “even heterosexual PDAs are frowned upon,” referring to public displays of affection. The page for Out Adventures’ tour to Egypt, including a Nile River cruise and snorkeling in the Red Sea starting at $5,495 per traveler, explains that “gay dating apps should be avoided” and discourages clients from trying to participate in the “underground gay scene” of the larger cities. The Egyptian authorities have been reported to harass and entrap members of the L.G.B.T.Q. community on social media and torture those in custody. “Not only do we want to protect the group,” Mr. Sharp said, “but we don’t want to put anyone in the local queer community in a situation where they could be at risk because they’re seen with this group of obvious homosexuals.” Gurchaten Sandhu, ILGA World’s director of programs, warned of the dangers of “advocacy tourism,” where travelers get involved in activism at their destination, possibly jeopardizing not only themselves but also those they leave behind when their vacation is over. Calling for travelers to boycott a country could also have unexpected adverse outcomes, Mr. Mendos of ILGA World and others cautioned. While the impulse often stems a desire to help, Ms. Stern said, pushing for this kind of action without making sure L.G.B.T.Q. rights groups in the country stand behind it could lead to a backlash against local L.G.B.T.Q. people and “do more harm than good.” Choosing to visit, on the other hand — even if you can’t be as out as you might want to be — may still have a positive impact on L.B.G.T.Q. people’s lives, at least indirectly. “The travel industry in country after country is often one of the places where L.G.B.T.Q. people seek out jobs and find employment because there is heightened tolerance,” Ms. Stern said.

Quietly promoting change

There is no shortage of companies to pick from when planning a vacation to countries like Kenya, Egypt or the Maldives, but L.G.B.T.Q. travel providers say what sets them apart from mainstream options is not only that they make their clients feel welcome and safe, but also that they direct their resources to handpicked, queer-friendly businesses. “We are putting money in the pockets of more progressive-thinking people and organizations that in the long run can contribute to progress by our definition,” said Mr. Sharp. Additionally, he said, Out Adventures has donated “quietly, behind the scenes” to local L.G.B.T.Q. organizations in countries where being gay is illegal, and is currently giving $50 per traveler to Rainbow Railroad, a nonprofit organization that helps L.G.B.T.Q. people escape state-sponsored violence. Out of Office has a similar program, Mr. Burn said, though he wouldn’t go into detail, citing concerns about the safety of those receiving the donations. Ultimately, Mr. Driscoll of Venture Out said, the decision about whether to avoid travel to certain destinations based on principle was a deeply personal one that travelers had to make for themselves. “It’s easy to feel outraged,” said Mr. Mendos of ILGA World. “I think that that’s a sound reaction. But people should be aware that change doesn’t happen overnight.” Follow New York Times Travel on Instagram and sign up for our weekly Travel Dispatch newsletter to get expert tips on traveling smarter and inspiration for your next vacation.

Stranded In Russia, 216 Air India Passengers Wait For Replacement Aircraft

Magadan is over 10,000 km from Russia's capital Moscow. New Delhi: A relief aircraft will depart from Mumbai at 1 pm for Russia's Magadan to take stranded Air India passengers to San Francisco, the Civil Aviation Ministry announced today. An Air India flight which was headed to San Francisco from New Delhi, was diverted to Magadan on Tuesday after it developed an engine issue. A replacement aircraft bound for Russia's Magadan on Wednesday to fly out stranded passengers was delayed as Air India officials are working through regulatory issues in order to operate the flight. NDTV has learned that several stranded Air India passengers in remote Magadan, which is over 10,000 km from Russia's capital Moscow, are being housed in dormitories because hotels in the area are unable to accommodate everyone on the flight. The Civil Aviation Ministry said today that it is closely watching the developments in the remote Russian city. "Aviation Minister Jyotiraditya Scindia is closely monitoring the situation. We are in touch with the airline," a statement from the ministry said. "Air India is sending a relief aircraft B777-200LR VT-ALF as ferry with men and material on board for recovery of VT-ALH. The aircraft VT-ALF will take passengers from Magadan to San Francisco International Airport. The tentative departure of VT-ALF from Mumbai is today at 1 pm IST. "Air India has informed us that they're taking care of passengers - local government is helping with accommodation. Passengers have been moved to a school close to the airport. The Indian embassy has also been contacted to provide food & essentials." Air India's flights into the US West Coast while flying east across the Pacific Ocean give the carrier a massive advantage over other airlines that cannot presently operate over Russian airspace. This, however, comes with its own set of challenges, which Air India is aware of. Emergency or precautionary landings in remote Russian airports with upwards of 200 passengers onboard its Boeing 777-200LR aircraft is a scenario that Air India management knows to be potentially problematic - available infrastructure on the ground being a big concern. The United States meanwhile said that it is "closely monitoring" the situation. "We are aware of a US-bound flight that had to make an emergency landing in Russia and are continuing to monitor that situation closely. I'm not able to confirm how many US citizens were aboard the flight at this time," US State Department Deputy Spokesperson Vedant Patel said. "It was a flight that was bound for the United States. So, it is, of course, likely that there are American citizens on board. There's public reporting from Air India that they are sending - what my understanding is - a replacement aircraft to the destination to have the passengers carry on for their route, but I would defer to the air carrier to speak to anything further on this," Mr Patel added. The Air India plane was carrying 216 passengers and 16 crew members. Source link Read the full article

Wrestling Body Chief Questioned Twice By Delhi Police: Sources

Two police cases have been filed against Brij Bhushan Sharan Singh. New Delhi: Brij Bhushan Sharan Singh, the country's Wrestling Federation chief and BJP MP accused of sexually harassing some of the country's top wrestlers, have been questioned twice by the Delhi police, sources have said. The police -- who have formed a Special Investigation Team to probe the matter -- have questioned around 200 people in the case as well, sources said. The police, sources said, will file a status report in the court, listing the details of all the inquiries they have held so far. Sources said the police have looked into every allegation and questioned the people allegedly present at the time. On April 29, two separate police cases were filed against Brij Bhushan Sharan Singh, after allegations of sexual harassment by seven wrestlers, one of them a minor. The cases were filed after the Supreme Court issued a notice to the Delhi Police. One of them is under POCSO, the stringent law against sexual assault of children. The MP, who is yet to be arrested, has denied any wrongdoing and accused the wrestlers of framing him. He has also challenged the wrestlers to undergo narco-analysis along with him to settle the issue. The row, on since January, exploded in April, with the wrestlers holding a public protest at Delhi's Jantar Mantar, demanding his arrest. Farmers and khaps from Haryana joined in to show support. On May 28, as Prime Minister Narendra Modi inaugurated the new parliament, the Delhi Police cracked down a protest the wrestlers had planned to hold near the building. Visuals of champions Vinesh Phogat and her cousin Sangeeta Phogat being manhandled and pinned onto the ground by the police were widely circulated, evoking shock and outrage across the country. Last week, the wrestlers went to Haridwar to consign their medals in Ganga, days after the Delhi Police crackdown. They postponed their plan after intervention by farmer leader Naresh Tikait. On Saturday, some of the protesting wrestlers had an hour-long meeting with Union Home Minister Amit Shah. In an interview with NDTV, ace wrestler Bajrang Punia denied rumours that they have reached a settlement. "The athletes aren't satisfied with the government's response, neither is the government agreeing with our demands," he told NDTV. Source link Read the full article

Arvind Kejriwal To Meet Samajwadi Party Chief Akhilesh Yadav Today

Delhi Chief Minister Arvind Kejriwal will meet Samajwadi Party chief Akhilesh Yadav. (File) Lucknow: Delhi Chief Minister Arvind Kejriwal will meet Samajwadi Party chief Akhilesh Yadav in Lucknow today amid efforts by the AAP to garner support against the Centre's ordinance on control of services in the national capital. Mr Kejriwal, who is also the national convenor of the Aam Aadmi Party, has been reaching out to leaders of non-BJP parties to garner their support against the ordinance so that the Centre's bid to replace it through a bill is defeated when it is brought in Parliament. "Arvind Kejriwal will be meeting Akhilesh ji in Lucknow on Wednesday evening," the Samajwadi Party's chief spokesperson Rajendra Chowdhury told Press Trust of India. AAP Rajya Sabha member Sanjay Singh is likely to accompany Mr Kejriwal at the meeting, a Samajwadi Party leader said without elaborating on the agenda of the meeting. The Centre on May 19 had brought into effect the ordinance to create an authority for the transfer and posting of Group-A officers in Delhi, which the AAP government had called a deception with the Supreme Court verdict on control of services. The ordinance came a week after the Supreme Court handed over the control of services in Delhi, excluding police, public order and land, to the elected government. It seeks to set up a National Capital Civil Service Authority for the transfer of and disciplinary proceedings against Group-A officers from the DANICS cadre. Transfer and postings of all officers of the Delhi government were under the executive control of the lieutenant governor before the top court's May 11 verdict.

Oil Protest Threat Forces ICC To Have Two Pitches For World Test Championship Final Between India And Australia

The International Cricket Council (ICC) have prepared two pitches for World Test Championship Final between India and Australia following a threat from oil protesters who threatened to vandalize the pitch and ground during the match. Keeping the threat in mind the security has been increased at the Kennington Oval cricket ground. The ICC have also made changes in their section 6.4 of the Playing Condition rule making an alternative pitch as per the ICC source. If the pitch gets hampered then they will assess the pitch and see whether it is in good condition to play or not if yes they will continue playing on the same and if not then they will look at the other pitch condition and take a call on whether they can play on the other one or not. Both the captains Rohit Sharma and Pat Cummins have been taken into confidence. If both agree to play after the pitch gets damaged then they will continue and if not then the match could get called off or abandoned. Certain sections will play a crucial role depending on the circumstances that unfold during the WTC 2023 final. First of all, if the on-field umpires determine that it is unsafe or unreasonable to continue playing on the match pitch, they shall halt the game and immediately inform the ICC match referee under 6.4.1. Under 6.4.4, if the decision is to not resume the play, the on-field umpires will assess whether the existing pitch can be repaired and the match can resume from the point it was stopped in consultation with the ICC match referee. The ICC match referee must consider whether this repair would unfairly advantage either side or not, given the play that had already taken place on the dangerous pitch. Under 6.4.7, throughout the decision-making processes that are mentioned above, the ICC match referee will keep both captains and the head of the ground authority informed about the situation. The head of the ground authority will ensure appropriate public announcements are made timely. The WTC final will begin at 3 pm IST from June 7 till June 11 at the Oval, London, a reserve day is also in place if the weather intervenes to spoil the sport. India's squad for WTC final: Rohit Sharma (Captain), Shubman Gill, Cheteshwar Pujara, Virat Kohli, Ajinkya Rahane, KS Bharat (wk), Ravichandran Ashwin, Ravindra Jadeja, Axar Patel, Shardul Thakur, Mohd. Shami, Mohd. Siraj, Umesh Yadav, Jaydev Unadkat, Ishan Kishan (wk). Suryakumar Yadav, Mukesh Kumar and Yashasvi Jaiswal have been named as stand-by players for the high-stakes match.

Ashish Vidyarthi On Being Trolled For Getting Married At 57: "Was Shocked"

Ashish Vidyarthi with Rupali Barua. (courtesy: bollywoodcouch) New Delhi: Actor Ashish Vidyarthi, who got married at the age of 57, in a recent interview with IndiaToday.in, addressed those trolling him for his age and his decision of getting married at 57. The veteran actor married Assam-based fashion entrepreneur Rupali Barua in May. He told IndiaToday.in, "I read words like boodha, khusat and many more derogatory words. What is interesting is that it is a comment that each one of us, whoever is saying that, we are passing on others who are older than us, and at the same time, we are giving that fear to ourselves, because each one of us, hopefully, will become old. We are telling ourselves, 'hey, listen, don't do things just because you're old.' So, does that mean you're supposed to die unhappy? If somebody wants companionship, why should he not?" The actor earlier had shared extensive Instagram posts after his marriage, speaking about age and companionship a few days ago. During his interaction with IndiaToday.in, the veteran actor added, "What are these walls we are creating for everyone? A law-abiding human being, who's doing things legally, who's paying his taxes and is working hard. That person is making a personal choice, to get married, legally, with another person, who's also keen to have a family and live with love. It's a thing in which each one of us should actually be supporting each other rather than puncturing somebody else. That is something I did not expect and was shocked because throughout my life I have added value." A few days ago, he shared an Instagram entry, in which he talked about his marriage. "I met Rupali Barua. We started chatting, then met a year back. We felt something interesting about each other and thought that we could be walking together as husband and wife. Therefore, Rupali and I got married. She is 50 and I am 57, not 60, but age doesn't matter my friend. Each one of us can be happy. Just wanted to let you know, let's keep moving with respect, how people are living their lives," he said in a section of the video. Ashish Vidyarthi was previously married to Rajoshi Vidyarthi. In a career spanning decades, Ashish Vidyarthi has been a part of films across languages including Hindi, Telugu, Tamil, Kannada, Malayalam, English, Odia, Marathi, and Bengali. Ashish Vidyarthi is known for mostly playing antagonist in movies. His filmography includes 1942: A Love Story, Baazi, Jeet, Mrityudaata, Arjun Pandit, Major Saab, Soldier, Haseena Maan Jaayegi, Jaanwar, Vaastav: The Reality, Joru Ka Ghulam, Refugee, Jodi No.1 and Kyo Kii... Main Jhuth Nahin Bolta, among others. Source link Read the full article

2 Dead After US Man Opens Fire At Crowd Outside High School Event: Cops

The shooting occurred outside the Altria Theater on the campus of Virginia Commonwealth University Two people were shot dead and five others wounded after a gunman opened fire in a park in Richmond, Virginia, on Tuesday as high school graduates and their families emerged from a theater where commencement exercises had just concluded, police said. Police arrested a suspect, an 19-year-old man, and planned to charge him with two counts of second-degree murder in addition to other possible offenses, interim Richmond Police Chief Rick Edwards and other officials told reporters. The shooting occurred outside the Altria Theater on the campus of Virginia Commonwealth University, where local high school graduation ceremonies were being held. Those dead were men aged 18 and 36, Edwards said. He did not confirm a WWBT television news report that the victims were father and son. Among the shooting victims, a 31-year-old man suffered life-threatening injuries and four other males aged 14, 32, 55 and 58 were expected to survive, Edwards said.

"Money's Nice, But..." : Australia Pacer Mitchell Starc On Why He Prefers Playing 100 Tests Over IPL

Premier Australian pacer Mitchell Starc said he hasn't been participating in the Indian Premier League (IPL) for a long time to prolong his international career as he wants to represent his country in 100 Test matches. A member of the 2015 ODI World Cup winning team and the 2021 T20 World Cup winning side, Starc will be looking to add another ICC event to his name when he turns up for Australia in the World Test Championship final against India at The Oval starting on Wednesday. "To choose not to do certain things to prolong playing for Australia, I've tried to be smart about that," Starc, who has played only two editions of the IPL for the Royal Challengers Bangalore (RCB), told cricket.com.au. "Yeah, the money's nice, but I'd love to play 100 Test matches. Whether I get there or not, I don't know, but that would be a nice one to tick off. Hopefully, there's a little bit left in me." The 33-year-old left-arm pacer has so far appeared in 77 Tests, taking 306 wickets at an average of 27.52 since making his debut in 2011. He also played 110 ODIs and 58 T20s, snapping 219 and 73 wickets respectively. "To play three formats for over 10 years, it's been a lot of pain along the way, but I'm grateful I've gotten that far. Whilst I've tried to add to the bow, as soon as I lose air speed, there's going to be someone chasing me. "Once that next left-armer is coming through, yeah, I'm sure I'll know when I know." Starc had received a lot of flak for his unflattering performance in the last few years with the late Shane Warne even questioning his place in the team. "That (media criticism) might have bothered me a few years ago, but I've certainly settled on a happy place where it doesn't bother me anymore," he said. "If that's what people think, that's what they think … if I'm the whipping boy sometimes, that's fine. "I'm certainly more comfortable in my own skin. Perspective is everything, and one of the biggest contributors to perspective is going through those tough times."

I Couldn't Trust Anybody Due To Phone Hacking

Prince Harry called some media houses "incredibly invasive". Prince Harry has accused Mirror Group Newspapers (MGN) Ltd -- publisher of The Mirror, Sunday Mirror and the Sunday People tabloids -- of illegal information gathering, including phone hacking. He has become the first royal in more than 100 years to give evidence in court. At London High Court, the Duke of Sussex accused tabloid newspapers of hacking his voicemails when he was a teenager. According to a BBC report, he said he made him feel he "couldn't trust anybody". He said that he had been the victim of relentless and distressing media intrusion "most of my life up until this day" and attacked negative portrayals of him as the "spare to the heir". The duke said that stories he believed originated from hacking not only caused security concerns but damaged his relationships. He accused the press of repeatedly trying to break up his relationships, saying the "twisted objective" continues today. "How much more blood will stain their typing fingers before someone can put a stop to this madness," the younger son of King Charles III added in a witness statement. Prince Harry called some media houses "incredibly invasive". Prince Harry on Tuesday said he had suffered a lifelong "press invasion" and accused some media of having blood on their hands, as he became the first royal in more than 100 years to give evidence in court. Harry, 38, said he had been the victim of relentless and distressing media intrusion "most of my life up until this day" and attacked negative portrayals of him as the "spare to the heir". "How much more blood will stain their typing fingers before someone can put a stop to this madness," the younger son of King Charles III added in a witness statement. "You're then either the 'playboy prince', the 'failure', the 'dropout' or, in my case, the 'thicko', the 'cheat', the 'underage drinker', the 'irresponsible drug taker', the list goes on. "As a teenager and in my early 20s, I ended up feeling as though I was playing up to a lot of the headlines and stereotypes that they wanted to pin on me... It was a downward spiral," he said, calling the reporting "utterly vile". The prince also said that he has "experienced hostility from the press" since he was born. He said that he developed "acute paranoia" of being under surveillance. According to a BBC report, The Mirror group's lawyer said he had sympathy for the duke, but denied journalists' actions were "all unlawful" In his written statement, issued as he appeared at court, Prince Harry accused the tabloid press of casting members of the Royal Family into roles and creating an "alternative and distorted version of me". "They then start to edge you towards playing the role or roles that suit them best and which sells as many newspapers as possible, especially if you are the 'spare' to the 'heir'", he said. The case is Harry's latest legal battle with the press since he stepped down from frontline royal duties in early 2020 and relocated to California with his American wife Meghan.
