    Tragic Finding: Three Missing Civilians Found Dead in Kathua, Jammu

    Three missing civilians, including a 15-year-old boy, were discovered dead near a waterfall in the Kathua district of Jammu on Saturday. They had been missing since Friday night. After their disappearance, security forces started a search operation, and a drone helped find their bodies on Saturday.

    Police officials, including senior officer Shobhit Saxena, said they could see the bodies but needed more time to find out what happened. The missing individuals were Darshan Singh (40), Yogesh Singh (32), and Varun Singh (15).

    Before they were found, BJP MLA Satish Sharma spoke about these missing men in the assembly on Friday. He urged the government to provide answers about their disappearance. The assembly Speaker, Abdul Rahim Rather, said the session was busy with another topic but would address this concern later.

    Previously, in February, two men named Shamsher (37) and Roshan (45) were found dead in the nearby Kohag village after they went to collect wood, but the details about their deaths are still unclear.

  • Mid-Sized Companies Now Borrow at Same Rates as Big Firms!

    Mid-Sized Companies Now Borrow at Same Rates as Big Firms!

    Fifteen years ago, a big company borrowed money by selling bonds at a fixed interest rate of X%. A smaller company, on the other hand, had to pay X% plus an extra 2%. This made it costlier for the smaller company to get money, which was a big disadvantage for them.

    But today, both the big company and the smaller company are borrowing money at the same rate of X%. Why? Because it’s now easier for companies to get capital. For mid-sized companies, how much they pay to borrow money is very important.

    This change means they can grow and compete better with larger companies. The financial landscape is shifting, making it fairer for everyone!

    Taxi Driver Dies After Attack Over Parking Dispute in Kolkata

    Kolkata: A 38-year-old taxi driver named Jayanta Sen died on Friday after he was reportedly beaten by five men over a parking argument that happened earlier in the week. Police say no arrests have been made yet.

    Jayanta was returning home from work around 10:30 PM on Tuesday when he accidentally hit a parked motorcycle. Later that night, five young men came to his house, called him outside, and attacked him. Despite attempts from his mother, brother, and wife to help him, they couldn’t stop the violence. “They beat him badly. Doctors said he had serious injuries in his stomach. We rushed him to the hospital, but he died on Friday. We want those responsible to face justice,” said Prasanta Sen, Jayanta’s brother.

    The police have opened an investigation for a serious crime that isn’t classified as murder but involves causing death. “We have filed a report based on what his brother told us. We are looking at security camera footage from the area,” said a police officer.

    Maharashtra’s Media Monitoring Centre: What You Need to Know

    Maharashtra’s Chief Minister, Devendra Fadnavis, said on Saturday that the state government does not want to control the media with the new center they are planning to set up. This center, called the Media Monitoring Centre (MMC), will help the government keep track of news articles and broadcasts. The goal is to understand how news about government programs is reported, so they can quickly respond to any misinformation or negative stories.

    Some people are worried that this center could be a way for the government to control the news. The Chief Minister explained that they will hire a professional to sort the news into different categories, like good and bad news, and issues related to people and departments.

    During a chat with women journalists for International Women’s Day, Fadnavis discussed a proposed law about interfaith marriages, sometimes called “love jihad.” He said that marriage between different religions is fine, but marriages where people hide their identity or force someone to change their religion are not acceptable. The government is forming a committee that includes officials and police to address these issues and create a new law.

  • Rachel Maddow Shuts Down Trump’s Confusing Mice Comments

    Rachel Maddow Shuts Down Trump’s Confusing Mice Comments

    This week, former President Donald Trump made some confusing comments about an $8 million grant given by the Biden administration. During a long speech to Congress, Trump claimed that the government was wasting money trying to “transgenderize mice.” Many people were puzzled by what he meant.

    Experts think Trump might have confused “transgender” with “transgenic.” “Transgenic” mice have their DNA changed to study how human diseases and medicines might work, helping scientists understand what could happen to people.

    Rachel Maddow, a host on MSNBC, had some fun with Trump’s claims. She joked that not many people watched his speech, which was the least popular of all his speeches. Maddow pointed out that Trump got it wrong, stressing that what they are really studying is “transgenic” mice, not “transgender” mice. She added, “But sure, go ahead and shut down all the labs studying all the diseases because what are you, 5?”

    Meanwhile, the White House defended the funding, stating that they had indeed spent millions on research involving animal experiments, including studying how hormones affect diseases. They pointed to specific examples of research projects that used that funding, like investigating how hormones relate to asthma.

    The White House called out CNN for trying to fact-check Trump and labeled them “Fake News losers.” They clarified, “Under Biden’s administration, the National Institutes of Health granted money for these studies on mice.

    Tragic Wedding Incident in Ballia: 15-Year-Old Killed in Scuffle

    A wedding celebration in Chakkhan village, Ballia, Uttar Pradesh, turned tragic when a 15-year-old boy was killed and another was seriously hurt during a fight. The incident happened during the Jaimala ceremony, a special part of the wedding, when the groom’s relatives were dancing. Suddenly, a group of people attacked them, leading to a big clash.

    The boy who lost his life was named Krishna Rajbhar. He was part of the family that was attacked. The injured person was quickly taken to a hospital to get help. Reporters spoke to the bride’s father, who said that some people had attacked them during the ceremony, causing chaos.

    When the police learned about the fight, they rushed to the place and took Krishna’s body for a post-mortem examination. A case has been filed against four individuals, and the police are investigating further. Villagers were angry about the incident and stopped traffic on the Gorakhpur-Ballia highway in Sikandarpur, demanding that the attackers be arrested. The police assured them they would take action, and the protest ended peacefully.

    Just a few days before this tragic event, another incident occurred in Noida where a two-year-old boy named Ansh was accidentally shot during a celebration. He was sitting on his father’s lap when a bullet hit him, and despite quick help, he sadly did not survive. Police have arrested the groom’s father and uncle but are still looking for those who fired the gun.

  • Congress Questions Modi on Trump’s Tariff Claims: A Trade Concern

    Congress Questions Modi on Trump’s Tariff Claims: A Trade Concern

    The Congress party has asked Prime Minister Narendra Modi to explain to Parliament what he has agreed to concerning U.S. President Donald Trump’s claims about India lowering its tariffs. Jairam Ramesh, a leader in Congress, raised concerns that reducing these tariffs could hurt Indian farmers and manufacturers.

    President Trump recently stated that India had agreed to reduce its high tariffs on U.S. imports, making it easier for American products to be sold in India. In a message on social media, Jairam Ramesh questioned, “What has the Modi Government agreed to? Will this hurt Indian farmers and businesses? The Prime Minister needs to inform Parliament when it meets again on March 10.”

    Trump expressed his frustration that the U.S. has been “ripped off” in trade by many countries, including India. He said, “India has very high tariffs. We can hardly do business there.” He claimed that India is now considering lowering these tariffs because someone is finally calling them out on it.

    In the past, Trump has even threatened to impose very high tariffs on India in response to the tariffs India puts on U.S. products. He has been vocal about wanting to raise tariffs on several countries since taking office.

  • Understanding India’s Stock Market: Insights and Strategies

    Understanding India’s Stock Market: Insights and Strategies

    This year, the Indian stock market has been up and down, making many investors feel unsure about where to put their money. Punita Kumar Sinha, a market expert from Pacific Paradigm Advisors, shared her thoughts in an interview with ETNow about what’s going on.

    Sinha explained that while the market isn’t overly expensive anymore, it’s also not the perfect time to find cheap stocks. Right now, stocks are trading at average prices from the last 10 to 20 years, which means they’re more reasonable but not super cheap. She mentioned, “While the market is a bit too low, we might see some short bursts of price increases, but they won’t last long until something new impacts the market.”

    When looking at India as a whole, Sinha feels optimistic about our economy’s strength, mainly driven by how much people in India spend. However, she pointed out that both local and foreign investors need to return strongly for the market to grow steadily.

    Regarding foreign investors selling stocks in India, Sinha explained that it’s not just about things happening outside India. Some money is being moved to China because its stock prices look attractive. She noted, “If the relationship between China and the US gets worse, then money might flow back to India.”

    Sinha believes that financial stocks are good investments despite some recent rules affecting certain companies. She said even though these companies are facing some challenges, there’s still a positive growth outlook due to the growing Indian economy.

    In her view, it’s essential to be careful with investments now, focusing on areas where India shows strengths, like consumer spending. She also recommended larger companies for safety compared to smaller ones.

    In conclusion, Sinha painted a picture of a cautious yet hopeful future for Indian stocks. The prices of stocks are reasonable now, but it’s not yet time for a big return of foreign investors.
