Supreme Court Questions Bail for Corrupt Ex-Minister Partha Chatterjee
The Supreme Court has told former West Bengal minister Partha Chatterjee that, “On the face of it, you look like a corrupt person.” This comes after a large amount of money, over crores of rupees, was found in his home during an investigation into a scam related to job recruitments in West Bengal.
While Chatterjee is asking for bail, the court is worried about what message it would send if he is released. They said, “What should we tell society? That corrupt people can get bail easily?” Chatterjee’s lawyer, Mukul Rohatgi, pointed out that many other people accused in the same case have gotten bail, but the judges reminded him, “You were a minister. You can’t compare yourself to them.”
The lawyer for the Enforcement Directorate (ED), S.V. Raju, said that even if Chatterjee is granted bail, he won’t be released because he has other cases to answer. Rohatgi argued that he has already been held for over two and a half years.
The judges asked how long the ED needs to finish their investigation. They want to make sure releasing Chatterjee doesn’t interfere with the investigation. Rohatgi also mentioned that the cash was not found directly from Chatterjee but from a company related to him.
The court noted that Chatterjee controlled this company and that the investigation began only after a judge requested it. They are worried about the serious charges against Chatterjee, saying that the police found a massive sum of Rs 28 crore.
Chatterjee’s lawyer requested the court consider his age and health, explaining that he is in his seventies and has collapsed during hearings. The judges are considering setting special conditions for his release if they decide to grant bail.
The court will announce its decision after hearing from both sides about these issues. Meanwhile, the courts are concerned about how many people accused of money laundering are found guilty. Chatterjee was arrested because of claims of wrongdoing in hiring teachers in West Bengal schools. He was removed from his role and party positions after his arrest.

Asteroid C0WEPC5 Creates Spectacular Fireball Over Siberia!
A small asteroid zoomed toward Earth and entered the atmosphere over northeastern Siberia on Tuesday, creating a bright fireball in the sky. This asteroid, called C0WEPC5, was first spotted by the Kitt Peak National Observatory in Arizona.
On December 3, the European Space Agency (ESA) gave a heads up about the asteroid coming our way. They explained that it would not be dangerous. The asteroid was about 70 centimeters (27 inches) wide and was expected to light up the sky over northern Siberia around 16:15 UTC (17:15 CET), about seven hours after the alert.
Later that day, ESA confirmed that the asteroid did enter the atmosphere right on time, creating a spectacular fireball that was seen by many people in Yakutia. Astronomers had discovered the asteroid just 12 hours earlier, and their careful tracking helped predict the impact time very closely—within about 10 seconds!
This event marked the fourth detected asteroid strike on Earth this year, making it a notable event in space news. Also, another asteroid named 2020 XR is set to safely fly by Earth on Wednesday at 12:27 a.m. ET. It is much bigger at 1,200 feet wide but will pass by at a safe distance of 1.37 million miles from our planet. NASA considers any object that comes within 4.6 million miles of Earth to be potentially hazardous. Asteroid flybys happen a lot; NASA reports over 36,000 of these events, and since October 2023, 132 asteroids have passed closer than the Moon.

Reliance’s Yousta Challenges Tata’s Zudio in Affordable Fashion Battle!
Once again, two big Indian companies, Reliance and Tata, are competing, and it’s great news for shoppers in India! Reliance has launched a brand called ‘Yousta,’ aiming to give Tata’s Zudio a run for its money. Zudio is popular because it offers stylish clothes at low prices, making it a favorite among shoppers.
Launched in August 2023, Yousta opened 50 stores in just its first year! All of Yousta’s products cost less than Rs 999, with most items priced below Rs 499, similar to Zudio.
The Success of Zudio
Zudio started as a store in 2018 by Trent, which is part of the Tata Group. It quickly became very popular and is now one of the biggest clothing brands in India. Since it began in 2017, Zudio has opened many stores and has become a significant part of Trent’s earnings, growing from just 8% of revenue to over a third!
Tata’s Trent reported a 50% increase in sales for 2023-24, reaching Rs 12,375 crore, with Zudio making a big contribution. In fact, Zudio earned more than Rs 7,000 crore in 2024.
Why is Zudio Winning?
Zudio has been successful because it understands the changing tastes of shoppers, especially in smaller towns. More people have disposable income and are becoming more aware of fashion. Zudio combines style with affordable prices, a formula that works well for them.
The company keeps its costs low with smart designs and a strong sales approach, making it twice as effective in generating revenue compared to many competitors.
What is Reliance Doing?
Reliance Retail saw a slight drop in revenue recently but is determined to succeed with Yousta. The company invested Rs 14,839 crore to support Reliance Retail’s growth. With Yousta, they plan to offer new styles every week and cater to popular trends, just like Zudio does.

Neha Bhasin Slams Offensive Lyrics in Male Rap Music!
Singer Neha Bhasin recently spoke out on Instagram about her frustration with some male rappers who use disrespectful language towards women in their songs. She pointed out that both men and women in India seem to accept this behavior, which she finds shocking. Neha expressed her feelings, saying, “I’m tired of average male rappers calling women strange names in their songs. Why is everyone okay with this in India? If a guy does it, he gets called cool, but if a girl does it, she’s called loose.”
She didn’t name any specific singers but made it clear that she won’t be controlled by anyone’s opinions, saying, “I am not just a pretty face, and I refuse to be put in a box.” When someone commented that her character was questionable, she confidently replied, “That’s just how frustrated people think.”
Neha Bhasin is popular in the music industry for her hit songs like “Asalaam-e-Ishquum” from the movie Gunday and “Swag Se Swagat” from Tiger Zinda Hai. Aside from her music, Neha also shares her health experiences, including her struggles with a serious condition called Premenstrual Dysphoric Disorder (PMDD) that she has had since she was a teenager.

Aussie Legends Respond to Gavaskar’s Claims of Team Discord
Former Australian cricketers Aaron Finch, Ryan Harris, and Lisa Sthalekar disagreed with Indian cricket legend Sunil Gavaskar’s recent remarks. Gavaskar suggested there might be a rift in the Australian team after Josh Hazlewood, a fast bowler, made comments during the press conference after the first Test of the Border-Gavaskar Trophy in Perth. Hazlewood said the batters should take responsibility for the team’s loss, not the bowlers, raising rumors of a divide within the team, especially after he was ruled out of the second Test in Adelaide due to a side injury.
Gavaskar, in his column for Sportstar, joked about Hazlewood’s injury, saying it was strange because nobody noticed anything wrong during the press interview. He compared the situation to past Indian cricket teams that faced similar issues.
In response, Aaron Finch pointed out that Gavaskar didn’t make such comments during the first Test but became critical after India took a 1-0 lead in the series. “Sunny is throwing haymakers now,” Finch stated, suggesting Gavaskar’s comments were exaggerated.
Lisa Sthalekar added that Gavaskar was just being cheeky and stirring things up. Meanwhile, Ryan Harris was more direct, calling Gavaskar’s comments “garbage.” He stressed that there are no factions within the Australian team and criticized the media for making a big deal about Hazlewood’s comments.
Harris explained that the Australian players understand the media’s nature and that it’s acceptable to lose to a strong team like India. He recognized Gavaskar as a cricket legend but felt he was just looking to create drama.

Jay Shah’s ICC Role Opens BCCI Secretary Spot: Who’s Next?
Jay Shah has become the youngest chairman of the International Cricket Council (ICC), starting his job on December 1. This means the position of secretary in the Board of Control for Cricket in India (BCCI) is now open. People are curious about who will replace him. After a rule change in 2022, the secretary now holds a lot of power in the BCCI, overseeing both cricket and business matters, with the CEO reporting to him.
Shah was elected to the ICC role without competition in August, but many are still talking about how the BCCI will handle this change. Potential candidates to take over Shah’s position are Anil Patel from Gujarat and the current joint secretary, Devjit Saikia. There’s also some talk about Rohan Jaitley, the president of the Delhi District Cricket Association (DDCA), but that’s just gossip for now.
A BCCI administrator said that it’s likely Saikia will serve as the interim secretary for now. He explained that there are daily issues to resolve, and whoever steps in needs to understand how the BCCI works. When an elected officer resigns, the BCCI has 45 days to hold a special meeting and choose a new one. From when Shah started at ICC, that gives the board until mid-January to make a decision.
The BCCI must also hire an electoral officer at least four weeks before the election. A senior official from a state unit said there’s plenty of time to make this change. They also added that this process should have started already since the new secretary needs to sign most documents. This issue should have been discussed at the Annual General Meeting (AGM) in September, but nobody really talked about it. Another person mentioned that there’s a lack of leadership at the BCCI right now.
The current officers’ three-year term ends in September next year, meaning the new secretary will only be in charge for about a year. Lastly, it remains unclear who will represent the BCCI on the ICC board, a post that Shah also held. Roger Binny, the BCCI president, is among the alternate directors, while Arun Dhumal, the IPL chairman, represents India on the ICC’s Chief Executives’ Committee.

Supreme Court Questions Uttar Pradesh’s Harsh Gangster Act in Ongoing Case
On Wednesday, the Supreme Court said that the Uttar Pradesh Gangsters and Anti-Social Activities (Prevention) Act seems very harsh. This statement came while they were looking into a case of a man who disagreed with a May 2023 ruling from the Allahabad High Court, which turned down his request to stop the ongoing legal proceedings against him in a Kasganj district court. The Supreme Court judges, Justices B R Gavai and K V Viswanathan, said they would examine the case further after admitting the appeal.
Last November, the Supreme Court had already asked the Uttar Pradesh government to respond to this situation and told them that no serious action could be taken against the man while they were looking into it. The man’s lawyer argued that he was being unfairly charged under the 1986 Act for illegal mining in the Ganga River. He pointed out that he had been accused twice for the same thing.
The state’s lawyer referred to the 1986 Act, suggesting that it needs proper consideration. The Supreme Court mentioned that there is also a separate case about the constitutionality of some parts of this Act, which they will review. The man’s lawyer stated that he was wrongly accused and that the charges against him were based only on another case where his name wasn’t even mentioned. On November 29, the Supreme Court decided to look at the separate matter regarding the Act’s rules and asked the Uttar Pradesh government for its opinion.
