As row continues, will Sena,

First India Bureau
Mumbai: Shiv Sena -
Uddhav Balasaheb
Thackeray leader
Sanjay Raut on Satur-
day said VD Savarkar,
Jawaharlal Nehru or
any other freedom
fighter should not be
maligned as they do
not belong to any po-
litical party.
Nana Patole, chief of
the Maharashtra unit
of the Congress, how-
ever, aggressively de-
fended party leader Ra-
hul Gandhi elsewhere
and said those slam-
ming Gandhi must ex-
plain why Savarkar
was getting pension
from the British.
Raut had made it
clear a day earlier that
the Thackeray-led Sena
did not approve of Ra-
hul Gandhi’s controver-
sial comments about
Savarkar and it could
lead to cracks in the
MVA alliance which
also includes the NCP.
“Attempts to be-
smirch the reputations
of both Pandit Jawaha-
rlal Nehru and Sa-
varkar must stop. Free-
dom fighters who made
sacrifices for the coun-
try’s independence do
not belong to any ideol-
ogy or political party,”
Raut, a Rajya Sabha
member, told reporters
on Saturday
.
“Just because some-
one badmouths Sa-
varkar, it doesn’t mean
you speak negatively
about Nehru,” the Sena
leader added.
Rahul Gandhi kicked
up a row earlier this
week during the Maha-
rashtra leg of his
Bharat Jodo Yatra by
claiming that Savarkar
had helped the British
and wrote a mercy peti-
tion to them out of fear.
“Those who criti-
cised Rahul Gandhi for
his comments on Sa-
varkar should first re-
ply why the latter was
getting a pension of
Rs60 from the British,”
Patole told reporters on
Saturday
.
His party wanted an
ideological debate, he
said, adding that the
Congress believed in
non-violence.

UDDHAV MUST DUMP CONG: UNION MIN DANVE
Jalna: Seeking to corner
the Uddhav Thackeray-

Bharatiya Janata Party
has asked it to sever
its Maha Vikas Aghadi
(MVA) alliance with the
Congress over Rahul
Gandhi’s criticism of
the Hindutva ideologue
and freedom fighter VD
Savarkar.
Union minister and
senior BJP leader Raosa-
heb Danve reiterated this
demand on Saturday.
“Thackeray and his
son Aaditya must an-
nounce if they intend to
break the alliance with
the Congress. Balasa-
heb Thackeray spread
the message of Swa-
tantryaveer Savarkar
across Maharashtra,
and now his son and
grandson are sitting
with a party that insults
the freedom fighter,”
Danve said.
The Shiv Sena, the
Congress and the Na-
tionalist Congress Party
constitute the Maha
Vikas Aghadi, which
ruled the state till June
29 this year.
Slamming Rahul Gan-
dhi, Danve said, “Such
statements have come
from a person who has
no knowledge of history
or its great personali-
ties. The BJP accepts the
ideology of Savarkar. He
is in our thoughts, our
minds, our conduct. He
is ours.”

Need robust legislation to secure
justice for all: Chief Justice Datta
Pune (PTI): Bombay
High Court Chief Jus-
tice Dipankar Datta
on Saturday asserted
the need for a “ro-
bust” legislation to
tackle all situations to
achieve the preamble
promise of securing
justice for all citizens.
Justice Datta was
speaking at a seminar
on ‘Dispute Resolution
Mechanism in Telecom,
Broadcasting and Cy-
ber-Sector issue, Ap-
proach and Way For-
ward’, organized by the
Telecom Dispute Settle-
ment Appellate Tribu-
nal (TDSAT).
“Our (information) is
in the mobile phone and
can be hacked by any-
body, no privacy, noth-
ing. So, this is the stage
where we should ex-
plore whether instead
of having one principal
bench (TDSAT) at Delhi,
with sittings permitted
at six other places, why
don’t we have regional
benches in line with the
National Green Tribu-
nal,” Justice Datta said.
In an indirect refer-
ence to the Shraddha
Walkar murder case,
Justice Datta said, “We
have just read in the
newspapers about cer-
tain stories of ‘love in
Mumbai, horror in Del-
hi’. These crimes are be-
ing committed because
there is so much access
to material on the inter-
net. Now I am sure that
the Government of In-
dia is thinking in the
right direction. The In-
dian Telecommunica-
tion Bill is there.”
On the importance of
tribunals, Justice Datta
said there was no harm
in constituting tribu-
nals if they are appro-
priately manned and
the purpose for which
they have been set up as
an alternative to the
court to render justice,
is attained.
We require
certain robust
legislation to
tackle all situations
in order to achieve the
goal of keeping our
preamble promise of
justice for all our citi-
zens' fraternity for re-
taining the dignity of
individuals.

Hawkers menace continues on Hill Road post 7 pm
First India Bureau
Mumbai: With a Bri-
hanmumbai Munici-
pal Corporation
(BMC) anti-encroach-
ment van parked on
Hill Road in Bandra
area of Mumbai,
hawkers do not line
up to sell their wares
during the day. How-
ever, chaos rules one
of the city’s favourite
shopping destina-
tions after 7 pm, when
the civic body vehicle
leaves the spot.
Illegal hawkers grab
every inch of the foot-
path and even spill onto
the road. Locals said
this happens despite as-
surances by the author-
ities and politicians.
According to locals,
the BMC drove the ille-
gal street vendors off
Hill Road in August af-
ter repeated pleas. After
a few days of peace and
tranquillity, the road is
back to its chaotic best
every evening.
A few hawkers with
large stands selling
clothes and fashion ac-
cessories occupied the
space in front of big
shops ensuring there
was ample space for
walkers on the footpath
in the evening.
After the BMC vehi-
cle left the area at 6.55
pm, within 5 to 10 min-
utes, one hawker after
another appeared from
nowhere. By 8 pm, the
place was bustling and
teeming with the unau-
thorized street vendors.
“After our complaints
and regular follow-ups,
the BMC stationed its
van in front of our
buildings and so there
aren’t any hawkers in
the periphery of 50 m.
But after the vehicle is
gone, the hawker men-
ace continues,” said Ro-
hinton Polishwala, a
Hill Road resident. He
said the van leaves be-
tween 7 pm and 7.30 pm
and hawkers do their
business till night.
“They find ways to do
a patch job for the time
being. Even in the
hawkers’ case, the ac-
tion is just an eyewash,”
said another resident
from Hill Road.

at the zoo, an official
stated on Saturday, to
coincide with the zoo’s
160th anniversary
.
Withthenewarrivals,
the penguin population

The male chicks,
hatched on April 02 and
26, have been christened
as Flash and Bingo re-

male chick hatched on
August09,namedAlexa,
it stated.
Flash and Alexa’s
parents are called Don-
ald and Daisy, while
Bingo is the progeny of
Molt and Flipper, the
release said.
The zoo, which was
formerly known as Vic-
toria Garden, was inau-
gurated by Lady Cathe-

central Mumbai.
After the park was
handed over to the mu-

At least eight pen-
guins—three males and
five females—were
brought from Coex

Mumbai: The Cen-
tral Railway (CR) be-
gan a 27-hour mega
block from 11 pm
Saturday night to
dismantle the Car-
nac Bridge between
Chhatrapati Shivaji
Maharaj Terminus
(CSMT) and Masjid
Bunder station in
south Mumbai.
The block will end at
2 am on November 21,
due to which the sched-
ule of suburban and
express trains will get
affected during this pe-
riod, a release by the
CR said. More than 37
lakh daily local train
commuters as well as
those travelling by out-
station trains are likely
to be affected, it added.
The bridge, built in
1866-67, was declared
unsafe by an expert
team of the Indian In-
stitute of Technology
Bombay in 2018,
though the movement
of heavy vehicles on it
was stopped in 2014.
It was declared un-
safe for road traffic
this past September.
A major portion of
the iron bridge has al-
ready been demol-
ished. Hence, during
the block only the iron
structure of the rail-
way over bridge (ROB)
will be cut and re-
moved with the help of
road cranes.
“The heritage bridge
has some six stones
with inscriptions that
mention the year of
construction. These
will be preserved suit-
ably either at heritage
gully or museum
area,” CR’s chief pub-
lic relations officer
Shivaji Sutar said.
During the block pe-
riod, suburban trains
will be operated from
Byculla, Parel, Dadar,
Kurla stations towards
Thane, Kalyan, Kasara
, Karjat side and vice
versa, whereas on the
Harbour line the ser-
vices will be run be-
tween Vadala and Pan-
vel-Goregaon stations,
it said.
“As we have limited
platforms for reversal
of trains at Byculla,
Parel, Dadar, Kurla
and Vadala Stations,
we will be running
trains at less frequen-
cy,” the CR said in the
release and requested
passengers to avoid un-
necessary crowding at
the suburban stations.
The CR said it has
requested the civic
transport bodies to run
extra buses for the con-
venience of commut-
ers during the block
period and they have
agreed to do so.

eaders of the World’s
wealthiest nations (G-20)
met in Indonesian island
of Bali on 22nd and 23rd of
this month. The President
of Indonesia, Joko Wido-
do, presided over the sum-
mit. President Vladimir
Putin did not attend the
conference. Russia was
represented by Foreign
Minister Sergey Lavrov.
He left Bali before the con-
clusion of the summit.
The leaders of nineteen
countries adopted a decla-
ration deploring Russia’s
aggression in Ukraine in
the strongest terms and
demanded its uncondition-
al withdrawal. They also
recognized that while most
members condemned the
war in Ukraine, there were
other views and different
assessments of the situa-
tions and on the severe
sanctions imposed on Rus-
sia by some countries.
Most members were of
the view that the war in
Ukraine was causing im-
mense human sufferings
and, “exacerbating exist-
ing fragilities in the global
economy - constraining
growth, increasing infla-
tion, disrupting supply
chains, heightening ener-
gy and food insecurity and
elevating financial stabil-
ity risks.”
The leaders also de-
nounced any threat of the
use of nuclear weapons.
This was quite clearly a re-
buke to Russia. To this the
response of the Russian
Foreign Minister, Lavrov
was that in the absence of
President Putin “politici-
sation of the meeting was
uncalled for”. The Summit
was preceded by a bilateral
meeting between US Presi-
dent Joe Biden and Chi-
nese leader Xi Jinping.
This was the first time the
two had met since Mr
Biden became President.
The meeting produced
few tangible results, it was
in a minor way a positive
development. Both sides,
in their three hour meet-
ing did mention their dif-
ferences over Taiwan,
trade restrictions and
technology transfer. Nev-
ertheless the two agreed to
keep in touch and avoid
confrontation. The bilat-
eral relations between the
US and China had plunged
to a historic low after the
visit to Taiwan by the
Speaker of the US House
of Representatives, Nancy
Pelosi.
The concrete results of
the Biden-Xi meeting was
that Antony Blinken, Sec-
retary of State, could pay a
visit to China early in 2023.
Climate change was dis-
cussed at length. G-20 lead-
ers agreed to pursue ef-
forts to limit the global
temperature increase to
1.5 degrees Celsius, reiter-
ating the 2015 Paris Agree-
ment on Climate Change.
The United States, Japan
and their partners de-
clared that they would
“mobilise” 20 billion dol-
lars of public and private
financial institutions to
help Indonesia shut coal
power plants and bring for-
ward the sectors emissions
date by seven years to 2030.
I have deliberately not
quoted from the speeches
of Presidents and Prime
Ministers. These are writ-
ten by their advisers and
ambassadors. Broadly
speaking controversy is
avoided. Words and inane
phrases are well chosen
and seldom memorable.
Having participated in
several Heads of State and
Heads of Government
Summits I know this rou-
tine only too well. Modern
diplomacy gives prece-
dence to economics, sci-
ence, technology, climate
change, poverty elimina-
tion, population control,
matters relating to health
etc. Politics is now not giv-
en excessive importance.
India, under Prime Minis-
ter Modi’s leadership
played an admired and
constructive role. He took
over as President of G-20
from President Joko Wido-
do of Indonesia. Some of
his time now will be taken
up by G-20 issues.
The G7 and G2, the Euro-
pean Union and NATO
seem to matter more than
the United Nations. The
annual meetings of the
General Assembly - Sep-
tember to December do not
cause New Yorkers to take
notice of the deliberations
of the Organisation. For
decades the “Cry” has been
the UN (particularly the
Security Council) needs
urgent reform. But reform
is not on the horizon.

FIFA WORLD CUP 2022
THIS YEAR’S SPECIAL AL RIHLA BALL HAS
THE AERODYNAMICS OF A CHAMPION
s with every
World Cup, at
the 2022 FIFA
World Cup in
Qatar the play-
ers will be using a new ball.
The last thing competitors
want is for the most impor-
tant piece of equipment in
the most important tourna-
ment in the world’s most
popular sport to behave in
unexpected ways, so a lot of
work goes into making sure
that every new World Cup
ballfeelsfamiliartoplayers.
Despite controversies
overcorruptionandhuman
rights issues surrounding
thisyear’sWorldCup,there
is still beauty in the science
and skill of soccer. As part
of my research, every four
yearsIdoananalysisof the
new World Cup ball to see
what went into creating the
centerpiece of the world’s
most beautiful game.
THE PHYSICS OF DRAG
Between shots on goal, free
kicksandlongpasses,many
important moments of a
soccer game happen when
the ball is in the air. So one
of the most important char-
acteristicsof asoccerballis
how it travels through air.
EVOLUTION OF THE
WORLD CUP BALL
Adidas has supplied balls
for the World Cup since
1970. Through 2002, each
ball was made with the
iconic 32-panel construc-
tion. The 20 hexagonal and
12 pentagonal panels were
traditionallymadeof leath-
er and stitched together.
2022’S AL RIHLA BALL
The new Qatar World Cup
soccer ball is the Al Rihla.
The Al Rihla is made with
water-based inks and glues
and contains 20 panels.
Eight of these are small
triangles with roughly
equal sides, and 12 are larg-
er and shaped sort of like
an ice cream cone.
Instead of using raised
textures to increase sur-
face roughness like with
previous balls, the Al Rihla
is covered with dimplelike
features that give its sur-
face a relatively smooth
feel compared to its prede-
cessors.
To make up for the
smoother feel, the Al Rih-
la’s seams are wider and
deeper – perhaps learning
from the mistakes of the
overly smooth Jabulani,
which had the shallowest
and shortest seams of re-
cent World Cup balls and
which many players felt
was slow in the air.

New Delhi (ANI): Call-
ing for global action
against the menace of
terrorism, Home Minis-
ter Amit Shah on Satur-
day argued that no
country — no matter
how powerful it is —
can deal with the men-
ace of terrorism by it-
self.
Speaking at the con-
cluding session of the
3rd ‘No Money for Ter-
ror’ Ministerial Confer-
ence on Counter-Ter-
rorism Financing,
Shah said, “No matter
how powerful a country
or organization is, it
cannot defeat the men-
ace of terrorism, on its
own. The international
community has to con-
tinuously and collec-
tively work to resolve
this difficult and bor-
derless issue,” he said.
Shah said in the past
decades, India has dealt
with several challeng-
ing aspects of terror-
ism. “Zero terror policy,
stringent framework on
counter-terror laws,
and empowerment of
security agencies has
resulted in a significant
drop in cases of terror-
ism,” he added.
The conference of-
fered platform for par-
ticipating nations to
deliberate on the effec-
tiveness of the current
international regime
on Counter Terrorism
Financing and the steps
required to address
emerging challenges.

ONE YEAR AFTER AN ALL-TIME HIGH, NASDAQ 100
IS STILL DOWN 29% FROM ITS RECORD CLOSE
New Delhi: A year after the Nasdaq 100 Index last closed at an all-
time high, there’s no sign the index is heading back to those heights
any time soon. The 249 trading sessions since the close on Nov. 19,
2021, is the tech-heavy benchmark’s
longest stretch since the dot-com era, and
the third-longest ever: It took the gauge
3,925 trading days — more than 15 years
— to recover from the dot-com crash and
416 sessions to rebound from the Crash
of 1987. This bear market in tech stocks is
shaping up to be the longest that many
young investors have ever seen, and may curb their appetite for risk
for years to come. Even after a bounce this month, the Nasdaq 100

the inaugural address at the annual research conference of the
Department of Economic and Policy Research of RBI here, Das
said the COVID-19 pandemic crisis created an opportunity to
explore and harness the power of big data and strengthen direct

the pandemic also posed new research issues and analytical
challenges for policy-making as it caused a demand shock or a
supply shock, the size and nature of policy stimulus required,
and their effectiveness, among others.

‘Indiatobeworld’ssecond
largesteconomyby 2050’
Mumbai (PTI) : Asia’s
richest man Gautam Adani
on Saturday said India,
which took 58 years to be-
come a trillion dollar econ-
omy, will add an equivalent
sum to GDP every 12-18
months and will be the
world’s second largest
economy by 2050.
Speaking at the 21st
World Congress of Ac-
countants here, he said
back-to-back global crises
have challenged several
assumptions, including
that China should adopt
western democratic prin-
ciples, secular principles
are universal, the EU
would stay together, and
that Russia would be
forced to accept a reduced
international role.
“This multilevel crisis
has shattered the myth of a
unipolar or a bipolar world
of superpowers that could
step in and stabilize global
environments,” he said.
“In my view - in this
emerging multipolar world
- superpowers will need to
be those that take responsi-
bility to step in and help
others in a crisis and not
bully other nations into
submission,thosethatkeep
humanity as their foremost
operating principle.”
A superpower, he said,
must also be a thriving de-
mocracy and yet believe
that “there is no one uni-
form style of democracy
.”
Adani, 60, said the foun-
dations of India’s increas-
ing economy might have
become relevant and a ma-
jority government has giv-
en the nation the ability to
initiate several structural
reforms in the political and
administrative system.
“It took us 58 years to get
to our first trillion dollars
of GDP, 12 years to get to
the next trillion and just
five years for the third tril-
lion. “A country, crushed
and drained by its colonial
rulers, today stands on the
cusp of an extraordinary
growth and is the only ma-
jor country on a path to
emerge as a high-income
nation without compromis-
ing its democracy and di-
versity,” he said.
“Well before 2030, we will
be the world’s third largest
economy and, thereafter,
the world’s second largest
economy by 2050.”
Adani saw India’s medi-
an age at just 38 years in
2050, population of 1.6 bil-
lion with a per capita in-
come of USD 16,000, over
700 per cent higher than
current per capita income.
FDI will touch a trillion
dollar, in sign of increasing
global confidence in India.
INDIA WILL BE NET EXPORTER OF GREEN
ENERGY BY 2050, SAYS GAUTAM ADANI
Mumbai: India will lead the global energy transition, and the country
will be a net exporter of green energy by 2050, Gautam Adani, chair-
man of the Adani group said today. “Cooling the planet down will be
one of the most profitable businesses and the largest of job creators
over the next several decades. I am in no doubt that India will lead
the global energy transition,” Adani said while addressing the World
Congress of Accountants in Mumbai. He announced that over the
next decade the Adani group will invest over USD 70 billion in the
green energy space and build the world’s most integrated renewable
energy value chain. Predicting India will need 400 per cent more
units of energy by 2050 than it currently consumes, Adani said that
there is little doubt that India’s energy transition will be unparalleled
as it races to meet its energy needs. India currently ranks third in
the renewable energy attractive index and is the world’s third-largest
energy-consuming country.

NGT’s stay on Nerul CRZ plot sale set to
continue till Dec 20; CIDCO opposes move
First India Bureau
Mumbai: The Nation-

(NGT) ruled to con-
tinue the stay on the
sale of the partially
affected coastal zone
plot at Nerul, adjoin-
ing the NRI Seawoods,
even as City and In-
dustrial Development
Corporation (CIDCO)
defended its tender
process and denied
any environmental
violations.
Earlier, on August 22,
thewesternzonalbench
of the NGT admitted
two sets of petitions by
the Navi Mumbai Envi-
ronment Preservation
Society (NMEPS) and
another by a group of
city residents and di-
rected CIDCO not to
proceed with the tender
process of Plot 2A in
Sectors 54-56-58. The pe-
titioners challenged the
25,000 sq m plot sale by
pointing out that it vio-
lates the coastal regula-
tion zone provisions as
one-third of the area
fall under CRZ1 and a
similar area is CRZ-ll.
CIDCO filed its re-
sponse challenging
NGT’s jurisdiction to
admit petitions and ar-
gued that the tender pro-
cess fulfills all CRZ pro-
visions. “There is noth-
ing in the law that pre-

grees on senior Bharati-

and Nationalist Con-
gress Party (NCP) Presi-
dent Sharad Pawar at an
event held in Aurang-

“‘Earlier, when you

Nehru, Subhas Chan-
dra Bose and Mahatma
Gandhi used to be the
answers. In Maharash-
tra, you need not look
elsewhere (as) there are
so many icons here.
While Chhatrapati
Shivaji Maharaj is of
olden times, there are
Ambedkar and Nitin
Gadkari,” the governor
said.
Predictably, his com-
mentsonMaharashtra’s

drawn strong criticism.

commentator and views expressed are his personal
WHY WERE PRIYANKA’S MEETINGS CURTAILED IN HIMACHAL?
SANTOSH UNHAPPY
WITH DELHI BJP MPs
The party’s powerful
Organisation General
Secy BL Santosh is said
to be angry with the BJP
MPs from Delhi. In fact,
many local MPs includ-
ing the names of Manoj
Tiwari, Pravesh Verma
and Hansraj Hans, are
said to have submitted
the list of claimants on
their behalf to party High
Command regarding civic
polls in Delhi. However,
field reports of most of
them came negative, and
their chances of victory in
party’s opinion polls were
also said to be bleak.
Complaints started piling
up with Santosh, wherein,
most plaints were about
offering money for
tickets. Annoyed, Santosh
demanded resignation
of all District Presidents
of Delhi BJP in a hurry,
warning the MPs to
reform themselves, say-
ing, ‘You reform yourself,
otherwise, the Chhat-
tisgarh model will have to
be implemented in Delhi’.
When Priyanka Gandhi took over the reins of Himachal
Pradesh, she had enthusiastically told the cadre that ‘she
can go around and will campaign for the Congress in Himachal
and touch every assembly seat there.’ The Congress organisa-
tion had also prepared a plan for some 68 public meetings for
her in the Himachal elections. But after this Priyanka went to
her home in Mashobra in Himachal and her mobile phone was
also switched off for two days. There was a stir in the state
Congress, and that is when Virbhadra Singh’s son Vikramaditya
Singh went to Mashobra to meet Priyanka at her house. In this
meeting, it was decided that instead of 68, Priyanka would hold
only 15 public meetings. However, in reality, only eight public meetings of Priyanka
could be held in Himachal elections. Angry Rani Sahib i.e. MP Pratibha Singh said on
this – ‘In BJP, the leader carries the party on his shoulders, but in Congress, the leader
has to be carried on workers’ shoulders.’
IMPORTANT CLUES OF MURDER
LOST IN THE MEDIA MARKET
The barbaric manner in which Mumbai’s
Shraddha Walker was murdered in
Delhi’s Chattarpur, it seems that Delhi
media has jumped into the market regard-
ing this. There is such a rush to break
the news that the channel is doing ‘piece
to camera’ by sticking to the bathroom,
kitchen and room of the accused Aftab
Poonawala’s house. Delhi Police hasn’t
yet been able to collect all evidence. The
discussion is hot whether media, its cam-
eras journos are unknowingly tamper-
ing with important clues of the murder?
Delhi Police Commissioner Sanjay Arora
is deeply troubled by these things.
RSS ‘CHURNING’ IN MALDIVES!
Highly placed sources in Saffron Party
its parent organisation have hinted
that a major brainstorming session
of hand-
ful of top
level RSS
functionar-
ies was held
in Madives.
According
to sources, 35 prominent office bearers
of the Sangh, who reached Maldives by a
special plane during Oct end, mulled upon
the strategy for post 2024 election dur-
ing the 5- day long trip. These officials
returned to Delhi by a charter plane.
BJP ON THE PATH OF DHAMNAGAR
After winning the Dhamnagar by-election in Odisha,
the entire BJP is elated. The seat was vacant due
to the death of a prominent BJP leader Bishnu Charan
Sethi. On this seat, the BJP
fielded Sethi’s son Suryabanshi
Suraj, who defeated his nearest
BJD candidate by 9,881 votes
while Suryabanshi got total
80,351 votes. After this, the
churning intensified in the BJP
as to which face the party should
field as its CM face in the coming
assembly elections. Then a list of
potential CM faces was prepared
by the party. Then a public opinion poll was conducted
by a favourite agency working for the party, but all
these faces could not prove their usefulness on the
scale of popularity. Then the General Secretary of the
party, BL Santhosh, held a brainstorming meeting with
the BJP leaders of Odisha in Delhi and wanted to know
why the activism of these leaders in Odisha is so low
that the general public does not know them properly.
WHY DOES DIGVIJAY SINGH WANT TO
TAKE RAHUL’S TRIP TO BIHAR?
Digvijay Singh wants to be the charioteer to take
Rahul Gandhi’s ‘Bharat Jodo Yatra to Bihar.’ Singh
wishes is that Rahul’s journey starts from Digvijay’s
maternal grandfather’s native
place, Githor in Bihar ends
at Bodh Gaya by travelling a
distance of 1,023 kms. Digvijay
Singh Jairam Ramesh have
entrusted Yatra’s responsibility
to Bihar’s ex- minister Awad-
hesh Singh. But problem for
Bihar Cong is that who will bear
expenses of Rahul’s trip, because
Cong has been out of power in
Bihar for years the magnates have also kept a dis-
tance from party. It is said that cost of one day’s Yatra
runs into crores. It was suggested that Yatra should
be limited to Patna, but Awadhesh wants to take it to
Gaya, as he is keen to contest 2024 polls from there.

11. CARE TIPS FOR PETS
CARE TIPS FOR PETS
Here are some tips on how to keep your furry
friends warm and cosy in the cold months.
WRAP THEM UP IN
WOOLLENS:
You just can’t imagine stepping
outside without a sweater in the
winter. The same applies to your
pets. Choose from a variety of op-
tions available for your cats and
dogs. Make sure you pick the right
size and keep them warm while
taking them out for a walk. In
case you have rabbits and birds,
you can cover their cages with a
shawl, leaving a little space for
aeration.
KEEP THEM
HYDRATED:
The winter season lowers
your pet’s want for water
consumption. However, de-
hydration can be life-
threatening for them. So,
make sure
their water bowls never
remain empty. Keep a close
eye on whether they are drink-
ing adequate water or not. Al-
ways carry a water bottle while
taking them out for walks.
PEEING INDOORS:
Cold winters can result in unin-
tentional urination inside
the house. Take them out
often to relieve them-
selves. Holding pee
for too long can
cause urinary tract
infections in your
pets. You can con-
sider potty training
your pets indoors.
Pee pads and pee
trays can be used to make
sure as an option.
Ipsita Gupta, pet parent
of a Labrador says, “During
the winters, Mia sometimes
ends up accidentally peeing in
the house. I use a pet-friendly
floor cleaner like ITC Nimyle,
which is a 100% natural action
floor cleaner made with neem
that keeps the floors clean and
also does not cause rashes on
Mia’s skin, unlike other floor
cleaners I’ve used before. Acti-
vated with the Power of Neem,
Nimyle also has anti-bacterial
and anti-fungal properties.”
ARRANGE WARM
BEDDING:
Never let your pet sleep on the cold
floor during winter. Make sure
they have warm and cosy bedding.
Place the bedding in a warm spot,
preferably where they sleep every
day. Make sure the area is cleaned
regularly with water and a pet-
friendly floor cleaner. Unclean sur-
faces may lead to underbelly rash-
es. Many pet owners use pet-friend-
ly heaters and warmers to keep the
room temperature controlled.
KEEP THEIR OUTDOOR
HOURS RESTRICTED TO
DAYTIME:
Try to keep your pets indoors, es-
pecially during the night. Go out
for walks with them during the
late morning hours. Being ex-
posed to the sun during these
hours will give them much-need-
ed Vitamin D.
CHECK FOR
HYPOTHERMIA:
If the temperature drops severely,
your pet needs special attention.
Ushija Asthana, pet parent of a
dog Cooper and a cat Silver said,
“The paws of your dog or cat need
to be protected from the freeze as
they aren’t covered by fur. If your
pet is picking up their paws off
the floor, it is a sign that the
weather is too cold for them. In
case there’s a drop in your pet’s
body temperature, make sure you
cover them up with warm blan-
kets and feed them hot drinks like
chicken broth.”

ollywood ac-

Sutaria is
said to be
dating Aadar Jain
for quite a few
years now.
While both of
them have re-
mained hush-
hush about
their relation-
ship, they do
share some love-
filled posts for
each other on spe-
cial occasions. They
are also often spotted
together during family
functions and other out-
ings. Tara Sutaria is cel-
ebrating her 27th birth-
day today, and the ac-
tress has received
many wishes on social
media. However, the
one that stood out
the most was the
lovely post from
Aadar Jain! Aadar
Jain took to his Insta-
gram to post a picture
with Tara Sutaria. The
picture is from their
France vacation, and the
two lovebirds can be seen
posing in front of the
iconic Louvre pyramid.
Wishing his ladylove,
Aadar Jain wrote, “Hap-
py Birthday ma chérie,’
along with a heart and
fire emoji.
The post quickly gar-
nered thousands of likes,
and several comments
from fans poured in.
M
alaika Arora has a razor-sharp eye for
style and it's unquestionable. She's giv-
ing our autumn style the elevated pow-
er of something that can be termed
sultry
. Mala is an all-rounder and definitely
a learned fashion lady who looks stylish
all year round. This month and the next,
our calendars are blocked big for par-
ties and there is something interesting
that's available. This ensemble will soon
be on the rise and some outfits around
us may get a second or no preference.
The Jaime ensemble featured a satin
ivory top that looked sleeveless on one
side and the other was in its dramatic ele-
ment with the long and broad cape which
truly became the foundation for a party
look. And, to this high-waisted and black
straight-fit trousers were joined.
Malaika's look was accessorised with
Christian Louboutin pumps, a micro hand-
bag and a gold ring.
T
ime and again, Ka-
reena Kapoor
Khan showcased
her love for casual
yet chic off-duty fits.
This time she was spot-
ted at the airport, sport-
ing a casual blue sweat-
shirt with matching
trousers. While comfort
was the supreme ele-
ment of her airport
look, the actress decided
to style it up with her
Celine bag.
Kareena Kapoor Khan
managed to stir up the
airport-style dressing
for the season as she
stepped out in a mono-
tone outfit casual outfit
that featured an over-
sized hoodie and match-
ing relaxed-fit trousers.
The diva stuck to stick-
ing to the muted blue
color palette and added a
stylish twist to the clas-
sic off-duty look with her
chunky black boots.
The actress teamed up
her all-blue look with a
Celine Calfskin Large
Soft 16 Bag in Tan. This
designer bag is carefully
crafted with tan-hued
leather and features a
statement leather top
handle with striking
gold-tone hardware.

C
hris Hemsworth,
an actor, has ac-
knowledged that
he may have a
higher chance of ac-
quiring Alzheimer's.
The actor, Chris Hems-
worth, claimed that
while having standard
testing for the mak-
ing of a new do-
cuseries that
will be shown
on Disney
Plus, he dis-
covered that he
is genetically
prone to the illness.
The actor claimed to
have found out he pos-
sesses two copies of the
APOE4 gene, which
has been associated
with a higher
chance of develop-
ing Alzheimer's dis-
ease. He emphasised
that it is not an official
diagnosis of Alzhei-
mer's and that he is not
certain to contract the
illness, but it is none-
theless a reason for
concern.
It's like one in a
thousand people... or
one in 10,000. I can't re-
member. But eight to 10
times more likely, he
revealed, jokingly
adding, Since you
told me that, I feel
like my memory's
getting worse. It's a pla-
cebo effect-or it's taking
place.
Since his grandpa has
Alzheimer's disease,
Hemsworth said that
the diagnosis did not
come as a surprise.
K
angana Ranaut took to Ins-
tagram and shared her
thoughts on work ethics.
She wrote, I see lots of out-
rage regarding Elon's work meth-
ods. Successful people tend to be
very hard/harsh on themselves
people who work with or for
them naturally become an ex-
tension of them because they
share a common goal and they
tend to push them to their limits
as well, in these woke times hat-
ing your job is cool and working
hard /sincere is not the quickest
route to success... Monday's are for
waiting for weekends and week-
ends are about feeling de-
pressed because Monday is
just around the corner..
haha all I can say is
that this generation
will never know
why five per cent
of the world's pop-
ulation owns 95
per cent of its
wealth”.
S
ushmita Sen may not have
stepped into Hindi films
for a long time now, but
her fan following and the
love of her fans have never dwin-
dled. The actor rang in her 47th
birthday this year on November
19. She did not miss out on giving
her fans a glimpse of her beauti-
ful face on this auspicious day.
Sharing a selfie on Insta-
gram, Sushmita wrote a
cryptic paragraph in the cap-
tions. Taking to her captions,
she wrote, “47 finally!!! A number
that has consistently followed me
for 13 years now!!! The most in-
credible year is on its way….I’ve
known it a long time…and I am
thrilled to finally announce its
arrival!!! #duggadugga I love you

A
mother's love
knows no
bounds and
when she
loves, she loves
unconditionally.
Her affection is
hidden in the lit-
tle things she does
for her children, in
the little things she
gives up for them, in
the wrinkles on her
face and the smiles
on her lips.
