A bench comprising Justices A.M.

The government will take a final decision within the next two days on whether to conduct class 12 board exams amid the ongoing COVID-19 pandemic, the Supreme Court was informed on Monday. Attorney General K K <keyword id="15333" type="COMPANY" weightage="20" keywordseo="Venugopal">Venugopal</keyword> told this to a bench of Justices A M Khanwilkar and Dinesh Maheshwari which was hearing a plea seeking directions to cancel the class 12 exams of the <keyword id="6356155" type="COMPANY" weightage="20" keywordseo="cbse">CBSE</keyword> and Council for the Indian School Certificate Examination (CISCE) in view of the current situation. "No issue. You take the decision. You are entitled to it. If you are departing from the policy of last year, then you must give tangible reasons for it," the bench told Venugopal. The bench emphasized that the policy which was adopted previous year can be adopted this year too and reiterated that if Centre is departing from the notification issued earlier then it should have good tangible reason. The AG replied that a meeting has been called to take a decision on the issue. The bench responded, "Take whatever decision that's appropriate but what has been expressed by the petitioner is that last year's policy should be followed." The bench further queried the AG, a notification was issued last year, why can it not be continued this year? After a brief hearing in the matter, the top court adjourned the case to Thursday. The petition filed by advocate Mamta Sharma urged the top court to issue directions to the boards to cancel the Class XII examinations, instead devise an objective methodology to declare the result within a specific time-frame. "The Covid-19 situation is more severe in comparison to last year and require the respondents to adopt the same criteria of assessing the grading/marks of class XII students as done in the last year", said the plea. The plea contended that notifications issued by CBSE and ICSE deferring the exams to an unspecified date should be quashed, adding that students cannot be subjected to suffer uncertainty amid unprecedented public health crisis. The plea contended that it is a fit case wherein the top court may exercise its power under Article 142 of the Constitution to direct the respondents to implement the same methodology, which is being adopted for class X to declare the result and cancel the examination for Class XII. Last year, amid the pandemic the top court had asked boards to determine and declare Class 12 exam results on the basis of earlier assessment of students.

He also said that the “reasonable Government borrowing numbers” will support lower interest rates and the move towards a clutter free new tax regime will significantly spur consumption. Banking industry's lobby grouping Indian Banks Association's chairman A K Goel said the increased capital expenditure could help in further increasing the demand for bank funds and the Agriculture Accelerator Fund woill also be helpful. <keyword id="686923" type="General" weightage="80" keywordseo="umesh-revankar" source="Orion">Umesh Revankar</keyword>, the executive vice chairman of <keyword id="12730794" type="DOMAIN" weightage="20" keywordseo="shriram-finance" botkeyword="" source="ET" sourcekeytype="COMPANY" meta.keywordsubtype="EQ" meta.aliasname="shriram finance" meta.entityname="Shriram Finance Ltd." meta.entityid="13106" meta.seoname="shriram-finance-ltd">Shriram Finance</keyword> said the income tax benefits announced will boost purchasing power for middle-class consumers.

The budget rightly “rewards” the taxpayers for their commitment, Dimri said. LuLu Financial Holdings Managing Director Adeeb Ahamed said the budget is focussed with equal focus on traditional and emerging sectors. Adeeb, who has significant investments in India's financial services sector through LuLu Forex and LuLu Finserv, said the move to ramp up the credit guarantee scheme for MSMEs will give a fillip to enabling faster access to financial services.

Bankers say private capex will take one more year to revive

Co-founders of Indian IT giant <keyword id="6354512" type="CITY" weightage="100" keywordseo="Infosys">Infosys</keyword> are looking forward to selling out their entire 12.75% stake in the company worth about Rs 28,000 crore. The decision might have been triggered by the unhappiness they have expressed over the manner in which the company has been run ever since they took an exit three years ago. Instead of choosing to lack horns with the company's board and management, the promoters seem to have decided to take a complete break from the company that was founded in 1981 and went public in 1993. The co-founder group, led by <a href="http://www.businessinsider.in/small-business/people/possible-to-protect-job-losses-says-narayana-murthy/articleshow/58946429.cms">N R Narayana Murthy</a> and <keyword id="44604" type="PERSON" weightage="100" keywordseo="Nandan-Nilekani">Nandan Nilekani</keyword>, are seen as torch bearers for the Indian middle class that chose to earn a degree and then become an entrepreneur instead of going for salaried jobs. It was because of their efforts that the story of Indian software was spread around the world. The sale of their stakes would most probably take place through stock market block deals and would be done in parts, and a single, block deal would most likely not happen. "Large private equity or sovereign wealth funds (SWFs) won't be enthused to write $4-5 billion cheques to be minority investors without any rights," said a top banker who spoke on condition of anonymity.

Narendra Modi: Prime Minister Modi, is seeking a third term from Varanasi, the constituency that paved his way to the Lok Sabha after his stint as Chief Minister.

He is up against BJP's Dinesh Pratap Singh and BJP's K. Surendran, as well as CPI-M's Annie Raja in Wayanad. 4.

NCP supremo Sharad Pawar's daughter Supriya Sule is against his cousin Ajit Pawar's wife, Sunetra Pawar, from the seat. The exit polls have predicted a tight contest. 5. <keyword id="42749" type="General" weightage="20" keywordseo="Shashi-Tharoor" source="Orion">Shashi Tharoor</keyword>: Congress leader Shashi Tharoor, who is a three-time MP from Thiruvananthapuram, is facing a three-way contest against BJP's Rajeev Chandrasekhar and CPI-M's Panniyan Ravindran.

Contesting from Coimbatore, the former cop is up against DMK leader Ganapathy P Rajkumar and AIADMK's Singai Ramachandran. 7. Rajnath Singh: Defence Minister Rajnath Singh is seeking a third term from Lucknow.

Yadav, who is an MLA from Karhal assembly constituency, is facing incumbent MP and BJP leader Subrat Pathak. 10. Asaduddin Owaisi: The Hyderabad constituency is bracing for a big showdown with four-time MP and All India Majlis-e-Ittehadul Muslimeen chief Asaduddin Owaisi facing a challenge against BJP candidate and actor-turned-politician Madhavi Latha. The Lok Sabha elections for 543 seats of the lower house were held across seven phases. The counting of votes will take place on Tuesday, June 4. The Bharatiya Janata Party is eyeing a third straight term in power, while the Opposition under the umbrella of the INDIA bloc is seeking to wrest power from the ruling party. Meanwhile, all the exit polls have predicted the BJP returning to power with a resounding majority, with further inroads in Odisha, West Bengal, and southern states.

"The IDs shall continue to exercise utmost vigilance in watching the evolving situation and shall not hesitate to proactively initiate measures, the moment required, to protect the interests of all stakeholders.

Any material development or remedial measures which impacts the Company shall be forthwith communicated in a spirit of complete transparency," they said. "Your actions must protect the company from what proposes to be a long-drawn acrimonious battle between Nawaz Modi and Gautam Singhania," corporate governance advisory firm, Institutional Investor Advisory Services India Limited (IiAS) had written in a letter to independent directors of Raymond Limited. The letter has been addressed to independent directors, Mukeeta Jhaveri, Ashish Kapadia, Dinesh Lal, K Narsimha Murthy and Shiv Surinder Kumar As per media reports, Nawaz Modi Singhania (Nawaz Modi), a board member, alleged that she and her daughter were physically assaulted by Gautam Singhania, the company's Chairman and Managing Director, at JK House (company property) in September 2023. She also alleged that company funds were being used for Gautam Singhania's personal benefit (CEO excesses) - and that she was acting as a whistle-blower of sorts. "Despite such serious and heinous accusations by one board member against another, you have been silent. Investors are worried, which is reflected in the significant erosion in stock price over the past few days. Your silence can be misconstrued - surely you don't want stakeholders thinking that these accusations are to be tolerated," IiAS said.

The second T20I between <keyword id="3658" type="General" weightage="80" keywordseo="india" source="Orion">India</keyword> and <keyword id="6355117" type="General" weightage="50" keywordseo="south-africa" source="Orion">South Africa</keyword> at the Barsapara Cricket Stadium in <keyword id="35727" type="General" weightage="100" keywordseo="guwahati" source="Orion">Guwahati</keyword> was an absolute run-fest, with an aggregate of 458 runs giving the capacity crowd their money's worth. But it was not just the sizzling knocks of <keyword id="496245" type="General" weightage="80" keywordseo="suryakumar-yadav" source="Orion">Suryakumar Yadav</keyword>, KL Rahul and David Miller which made headlines from the match. There were two interruptions -- one each in the first and second innings -- which made waves on social media. The first one, happened during India's innings after South Africa inserted them into batting first. At the end of the seventh over, visuals of ground staff running quickly on the field with sticks and a bucket in hand were seen to remove a snake which was making its presence felt at the outfield. Left-arm pace all-rounder Wayne Parnell, who was fielding at extra cover, was quick to spot the snake and alerted all on the field about it. The unusual incident left several fans amused, with former West Indies fast bowler Ian Bishop tweeting with a snake emoji, "I have so many questions." There were no further interruptions in India's innings after the ground staff took away the uninvited intruder from the field. Eventually, Suryakumar Yadav and K.L Rahul became the stars in a collective commanding batting show from India to make 237/3, their fourth-highest score in all T20Is. In front of a jam-packed crowd, Rahul sizzled with an eye-pleasing 57 of 28 balls, before Suryakumar brought out full carnage of 360 degree shots to make 61 off just 22 balls. Captain <keyword id="13937" type="General" weightage="80" keywordseo="rohit-sharma" source="Orion">Rohit Sharma</keyword>, Virat Kohli and Dinesh Karthik played their parts well as India made merry and enthralled the fans by feasting on an ordinary bowling performance from South Africa, barring Keshav Maharaj's 2/23 in four overs. Then, in defence of 237/3, the proceedings came to an abrupt halt in the third over of second innings. One of the floodlight towers in the stadium went off, meaning the players went off the field. Play was stopped for just ten minutes before the lights came back on and match began. "It's out of our control (on the floodlight failure). It kind of just gave us a little bit of time of process what happened. (It) gave us an opportunity to chat about in the powerplay after the first couple of overs went India's way. And then there was the issue with the snake as well (in India's innings). I thought there was a lot going on there," said South Africa batter David Miller in the post-match press conference.

But it's relatively unprecedented for ex-presidents to charge their supporters to see them speak at political rally-style events with similar material. "Paid presidential speeches are nothing new. It's nice work if you can get it," presidential historian Mark K. Updegrove, <a href="https://affiliate.insider.com?u=https%3A%2F%2Fwww.amazon.com%2FSecond-Acts-Presidential-Lives-Legacies%2Fdp%2F1592289428">who has written a book on post-presidencies</a>, told the Post. "The difference here is Trump is doing this under the guise of a political rally. There might be a little deception there."At one Trump event on his American Freedom Tour in Mississippi, Trump rehashed his false claims of fraud in the 2020 election, complaining about the House January 6 Committee, and teasing a 2024 presidential campaign, the Post reported. "I really wanted to do my part in contributing to where he can keep doing what he's doing, traveling around," one attendee who paid $800 for VIP tickers in Mississippi told the Post. "I know he probably doesn't need financial help by any means, but just to do my part in supporting him because I believe in what he's doing."Trump's tour came together when event organizer Brian Forte met Chris Widener, a Trump supporter and former motivational speaker. "They're deplorable, they're racist, they're sexist, xenophobic, transphobic — they've been beaten up for five years," Widener told the Post, referring to Trump's supporters. "Wouldn't it be amazing if we did some rallies around the country, and got conservatives together, so that folks could look around and say, 'I'm not alone.'"Tour events have featured guest speakers including <keyword id="11914386" type="UNKNOWN" weightage="60" keywordseo="donald-trump" source="Orion">Donald Trump</keyword> Jr., ex-Secretary of State Mike Pompeo, and conservative media figures Candace Owens, Dan Bongino, and Dinesh D'Souza, in addition to motivational speakers giving financial advice and offering seminars and classes, the Post reported. One local Republican activist in Arkansas who staffs the tour events as a volunteer told the Post that Trump inspired her to run for a local office. "I pray that we save us and that we can do this," she said. "That's what Trump has taught me."
