Thane, Feb 1 (PTI) Several business associations in Thane welcomed the Union Budget for 2022-23 that was presented in the Parliament on Tuesday and said it would help develop infrastructure, digitization and manufacturing. Appa Khambete of the Chamber of Small Industry Associations (COSIA) said it was a "continuity budget" with emphasis on infrastructure, digital India and manufacturing, adding that maintaining consistency in public policy in this manner was important. He, however, said the MSME sector could have been supported better by way of technology development, and the budget could have zeroed in on productivity improvement in government sectors. Thane Small Scale Industries Association (TSSIA) president Sujata Soparkar said the demand for continuation and expansion of the ECLGS Scheme till March next year has been accepted, while revamping of the CGTMSE scheme will facilitate additional credit of Rs 1 lakh crore for micro and small enterprises. Jitendra Mehta, president, CREDAI-MCHI Thane termed the Union Budget for 2022-23 as progressive and said priorities of the government such as PM Gati Shakti will bring about sustainable growth, inclusive development, productivity enhancement, and support investment. He also welcomed key budget announcements affecting real estate, including the Pradhan Mantri Awas Yojana (Rural &amp; Urban), which has been allotted Rs 48,000 crore with the aim of identifying 80 lakh new beneficiaries.

<div class="image-container float_right" style="width:401px"><div class="image"></div><a href="http://www.flickr.com/photos/tabor-roeder/5554047867/">Phil Roeder/Flickr</a></div>You have to be pretty special to be considered for a <keyword id="6354977" type="ORGANIZATION" weightage="60" keywordseo="Supreme-Court">Supreme Court</keyword> clerkship.
It's not just about good grades.
It's about your former clerkships, work history, scholarships, and most importantly who you know, Northwestern University School of <keyword id="6355470" type="CITY" weightage="100" keywordseo="Law">Law</keyword> career counselor <a href="http://hannastotland.webs.com/">Hanna Stotland </a>told Business Insider.
Supreme Court clerks need to have the right "feeder clerkship," often in a federal appellate court or even in both a trial and an appellate court.
Clerks also have to place in the top of their class, secure elite scholarships, and belong to their schools' best law reviews, according to Stotland.
But that might not be enough.
"The big thing, among the people with the right law schools and the right grades and the right scholarly experience on the law review is who are your recommenders and how much do they love you," Stotland said.
Keeping this in mind, you can imagine <a href="http://abovethelaw.com/2012/06/supreme-court-clerk-hiring-watch-color-commentary-on-the-october-term-2012-class/2/">the 2012-2013 term clerks</a> are a pretty impressive bunch. 
For instance there's Thane Rehn, who's clerking for Justice Ruth Bader Ginsburg.
After graduating first in his class at Columbia Law in 2009, Rehn clerked for the <a href="http://www.businessinsider.com/richard-posner-calls-republicans-goofy-2012-7">famous appeals court judge Richard Posner.</a> Then he went on to corporate law firm Susman Godfrey, where he successfully argued a motion that <a href="http://www.prnewswire.com/news-releases/susman-godfrey-associate-wins-dismissal-of-billion-dollar-rescission-claim-against-client-oppenheimerfunds-137280273.html">essentially killed a billion-dollar claim </a>against his client OppenheimerFunds. At the time, Rehn was the most junior associate on the team.
Another clerk has shown she's a good person in addition to being a good lawyer.
Caroline Edsall, a clerk for Chief Justice John Roberts, was the founder and team captain of Yale Law's Relay for Life Team. She <a href="http://www.cancer.org/myacs/newengland/areahighlights/founder-of-yale-relay-still-fighting-back-through-fundraising">was also the team's top fundraiser</a>, having raised more than $12,600, according to the American Cancer Society.
Edsall graduated Yale Law in 2010 and previously clerked for Judge Brett Kavanaugh, a well known judge on the federal appeals court in Washington, D.C.
A clerk for another right-leaning justice, Samuel Alito, is also pretty impressive.
Claire McCusker Murray <a href="http://www.innsofcourt.org/Content/Default.aspx?Id=5961">scored the coveted</a> Temple Bar Scholarship, which allowed her to work in barristers' chambers in London and in the U.K. Supreme Court before going on to work for Alito in the U.S., according to American Inns of Court.
In addition to their legal accomplishments, the entire class of clerks might also share a personal connection with the justices.
Supreme Court justices have the luxury of choosing from the best of the best, so they are able to make their selections based on really personal criteria, according to Stotland.
The late Justice William Rehnquist enjoyed playing tennis with his clerks, Stotland points out, so he chose people <a href="http://articles.latimes.com/2005/sep/07/nation/na-remember7">who would be up for a doubles match.</a>

What It Takes To Get An Impossibly Prestigious Supreme Court Clerkship

<ul class="summary-list"><li>Sam Bankman-Fried's defense attorneys have argued that FTX's collapse is complicated and he didn't know everything.</li><li>They've argued his ex-friends who pleaded guilty just want a lighter sentence.</li></ul>During opening statements at Sam Bankman-Fried's trial, it quickly became clear that prosecutors and his defense attorneys had very different approaches.Prosecutors told a simple story of straightforward theft. Bankman-Fried, they alleged, stole funds deposited by customers of his cryptocurrency exchange, FTX, by moving it to his hedge fund, Alameda Research, and took out loans for his own benefit.Three of his close friends and associates — <a href="https://www.businessinsider.com/caroline-ellison-testify-criminal-trial-ftx-collapse-sam-bankman-fried-2023-9">Caroline Ellison</a>, <a href="https://www.businessinsider.com/gary-wang-agreed-cooperate-sbf-trial-first-meeting-prosecutors-2023-10">Gary Wang</a>, and <a href="https://www.businessinsider.com/sam-bankman-fried-trial-nishad-singh-testimony-ftx-scam-going-2023-10">Nishad Singh</a> — had already pleaded guilty to conspiring with Bankman-Fried and would testify in the trial. The mechanics, involving financial concepts like cryptocurrency, highly leveraged loans, and market-makers, could be esoteric. But in a federal courthouse in downtown Manhattan, Assistant US Attorney Thane Rehn put it in plain terms."He spent the money on lavish houses for himself, his parents, and his friends," Rehn said. "He spent it so he could get introduced to celebrities. He spent millions more on political donations to gain influence in Washington. He poured money — other people's money — into his own investments to try to make himself even richer."Bankman-Fried's attorneys say it was a little more complicated.According to his lawyer Mark Cohen, the whole case is in the mechanics. Alameda took legitimate loans from FTX for legitimate business purposes, including for market-making purposes, he said. "Some things got overlooked" in the details at FTX, and <a href="https://www.businessinsider.com/sam-bankman-fried-lawyer-tries-pins-ftx-collapse-caroline-ellison-2023-10">Ellison made irresponsible decisions as the CEO of Alameda</a>, Cohen said, <a href="https://www.businessinsider.com/sam-bankman-fried-ftx-crypto-fraud-trial-attorney-cryptocurrency-market-2023-10">leaving FTX exposed to disaster if cryptocurrency prices fell</a>.Crypto prices did fall in 2022, Cohen said, which led to the mess where customers couldn't withdraw money from their FTX accounts. But, he suggested, the losses could also be attributed to risky margin trading from customers. Very unfortunate? Sure. Criminal? Absolutely not, Cohen argued.As the trial has gone on, it's become clear that Bankman-Fried's lawyers have a problem.According to testimony from Bankman-Fried's former friends and business associates, the excuses about Alameda's market-making capabilities and spot margin trading are red herrings.They just took the money, they've all said.<h2>It's complicated, SBF's lawyers say</h2>In their opening statement and cross-examination of witnesses, Bankman-Fried's lawyers have tried to complicate the story in two particular ways.One, FTX allowed users to engage in spot margin trading. That allowed users to put up collateral in order to make particularly risky trades on the exchange. In certain circumstances where they were on the wrong side of a trade, they could lose money from their accounts.Two, Bankman-Fried's lawyers have stressed Alameda's role as not just a trading firm on FTX, but as a market maker. Alameda had special privileges that allowed it to hold a negative balance on FTX — ultimately, negative $65 billion. Ellison, the now-former CEO of Alameda, testified that meant Alameda had an essentially unlimited line of credit from FTX, without any regard for whether the money belonged to customers.To secure an acquittal in a criminal trial, defense attorneys need to convince just one juror to have reasonable doubt of their client's guilt. Prosecutors have accused Bankman-Fried of fraud, money laundering, and conspiracy, with a potential sentence of over a century. If any juror doubts even one count, it could help Bankman-Fried, who is 31 years old, spend less time in prison.<div type="image" title="A photo of Sam Bankman Fried leaving federal court while being photographed. " height="1666" width="2222" msid="104610810" hostid="261" sizebytes="849980"></div>It's a high bar to clear, according to Sarah Krissoff, an attorney at Cozen O'Connor and former federal prosecutor in New York. But Bankman-Fried's attorneys may convince jurors that Bankman-Fried genuinely believed his actions were acceptable in the wild-west cryptocurrency industry."He thought this was okay in this world where crypto wasn't regulated, and so he had sort of no concept that this was a fraud," Krissoff said. "Now, the issue is that if all of the other insider witnesses have said, 'I knew this was wrong, and I pled guilty to crimes related to it.'"Ellison, Singh, and Wang were all in Bankman-Fried's inner circle. Ellison led Alameda Research for much of 2021 and 2022. Wang co-founded Alameda and FTX with Bankman-Fried and led the latter as its chief technology officer. Singh knew Bankman-Fried since he was in high school and was the top developer at FTX, having intimate knowledge of its code. All of them lived together in a $35 million penthouse that Bankman-Fried purchased in the Bahamas with Alameda's funds. And all of them pleaded guilty to conspiring with Bankman-Fried to take customer money.The challenge for Bankman-Fried's attorneys is to convince jurors that he didn't know about any wrongdoing. They've suggested that Bankman-Fried's former lieutenants and close friends are motivated to testify against him in hopes of getting lighter sentences for themselves."The question isn't so much necessarily, 'Is all of that wrong, or is that stuff criminal?'" said Paul Tuchmann, an attorney at Wiggin and Dana, and a former federal prosecutor in New York. "It's 'Did SBF know about it? Did he direct them to do it?'"<h2>Everyone has pointed fingers at SBF</h2>But while the defense attorneys have tried to obfuscate each witnesses' relationship with Bankman-Fried and his knowledge of wrongdoing, those witnesses have been forthright on the witness stand."The government has flipped everybody else in order to prosecute Sam Bankman-Fried," Krissoff said. "And by doing that, the fact that multiple other individuals have agreed 'I knew I was doing something wrong, I was committing a crime, I did something wrong, I knew it was illegal at the time' — it doesn't help his intent argument."Bankman-Fried does have some points in his favor. In one memo shown to jurors, circulated in the fall of 2022 — before FTX and Alameda collapsed — Bankman-Fried lamented Ellison's skills running Alameda while he focused on FTX. He said the trading firm would have done better if he were at the wheel, which bolsters the defense attorneys' argument that Ellison, but not Bankman-Fried, is to blame.But <a href="https://www.businessinsider.com/caroline-ellison-testify-criminal-trial-ftx-collapse-sam-bankman-fried-2023-9">Ellison has held Bankman-Fried firmly responsible</a>.It was Bankman-Fried, she testified, who directed her to spent "in the ballpark of $10 billion" in customer deposits to repay loans as Alameda was collapsing."He was the one who set up the systems that allowed Alameda to take the money, and he was the one who directed us to take customer money to repay our loans," she said.Who told Ellison to come up with a bunch of alternative balance sheets to give a rosy portrait of Alameda's finances to lenders?"Sam directed me to," Ellison testified.<div type="image" title="Caroline Ellison, SBF trial" height="1968" width="2625" msid="104610812" hostid="261" sizebytes="1351926"></div>Who was responsible for the margin trading system that Bankman-Fried's lawyers suggested was to blame for lost customer deposits?"Sam directed a lot of these specifics of how the code should run and what it should be doing," Singh testified. "As an example, Sam designed all the rules for the margin system and the liquidation engine, and Gary implemented them."Every witness who developed FTX's software also pointed out that the spot margin trading program — which actually did introduce the possibility of customers losing funds — was something that individual customers needed to opt into. And FTX often bragged that its liquidation engine was so well-designed that losing funds would be extremely rare. In order to lose those segregated funds, customers would need to have their collateral liquidated, for market makers to reject those positions, and for a separate insurance fund to be completely drained, according to Can Sun, FTX's former top lawyer."It has been FTX's consistent position that they have never depleted the insurance fund, we have never clawed back users, and we have no intention of clawing back users as well," Sun testified in the trial. "It was one of FTX's main marketing and selling points."Bankman-Fried's lawyers will have a tough time changing the narrative in front of the jury. One way to do it would be <a href="https://www.businessinsider.com/sam-bankman-fried-trial-will-sbf-testify-witness-defense-2023-10">if Bankman-Fried took the witness stand himself</a> and testified about his version of the story.Doing so would be <a href="https://www.businessinsider.com/sam-bankman-fried-coin-flip-destroy-world-caroline-ellison-trial-2023-10">incredibly risky</a>, particularly because Bankman-Fried has given so many interviews about his experience already. If prosecutors catch him in a lie during cross-examination, his potential sentence could be much harsher."He's challenged here," said Krissoff, the former federal prosecutor. "He would be in a much better position if he had not spoken out publicly so much about this before and he could just craft his testimony fresh."The trial is expected to wrap up in the next week or two, depending on whether or not Bankman-Fried decides to testify.

This will be its second physical store in India after it entered the country over two years ago with the first store in Hyderabad. The new store will be located on the Thane-Belapur Road, approximately 600 meters from the Turbhe Station. The company said the customers will now be able to test, try and purchase some of IKEA’s iconic products such as BILLY Bookcase, MALM Bed, EKTORP Sofa, among others in the new store. Peter Betzel, the CEO of IKEA India, said, “We are very excited, as Mumbai is one of our priority markets in India. We have been present online in Mumbai since early 2019, and soon the many people of Mumbai will be able to shop at our fantastic IKEA store.” It added that after the Navi Mumbai store, two smaller format stores would open in Mumbai during 2021. The ambition is to enter prioritized markets in India with an omnichannel approach with beautiful, affordable, good quality and sustainable home furnishings products. A boost for local jobs The company in the Navi Mumbai store will be employing close to 1200 coworkers out of which 50% are women. It said the 40% of its staff are from the Navi Mumbai area, and 70% of its support staff – mainly housekeeping and security are from in and around Turbhe and Ghansoli.

The company had signed an MoU with the Uttar Pradesh government in December 2018 for ₹5,000-crore investment in Noida and other cities in the state. It has committed to completing the project by 2025. State Industries Minister Satish Mahana said 47,833 square metre land had been allotted to the company, but work did not take off due to pending payments. “All issues have been cleared, and the company has committed to finishing the project by 2025. I have issued directions to ensure the company gets quick possession of the land,” Mahana said on Thursday. The company also has online stores in Mumbai, Hyderabad and Pune.

How many assembly seats in Maharashtra during state election 2019

Long stints in electoral politics and past experience in handling key government departments are the hallmarks of Congress-NCP-Shiv Sena legislators who took oath as ministers along with Maharashtra Chief Minister Uddhav Thackeray at the Shivaji Park here on Thursday evening. Thackeray is heading a coalition government, the Maha Vikas Aghadi (MVA), whose main constituents are the Sena, the Congress and the NCP. <keyword id="6360285" type="PERSON" weightage="20" keywordseo="chhagan-bhujbal">Chhagan Bhujbal</keyword>, Jayant Patil (both from the NCP), Balasaheb Thorat and Nitin Raut (both from the Congress), Eknath Shinde and Subhash Desai (both from the Sena) took oath as ministers along with Thackeray. Chhagan Bhujbal: Bhujbal (72) is a veteran figure in Maharashtra politics, who has the rare distinction of being associated with all the three major non-BJP parties in the state. A senior Nationalist Congress Party (NCP) leader, Bhujbal had been a member of both the Shiv Sena and the Congress at different times. Taking over as a minister is a sort of revival of his political fortunes after spending two years in jail since March 2016 in a money laundering case when the BJP-led government was in power. Bhujbal, who represents the OBC community, cut his political teeth in the Shiv Sena. He served as the Mayor of Mumbai, a Sena bastion, two times - 1985-86 and 1990-91. He quit the Sena in 1991, causing quite a stir in state politics, and joined the Congress. Bhujbal resigned from the Congress in 1999 and sided with Sharad Pawar who formed the NCP the same year. He became deputy chief minister in December 2008 and held key portfolios such as home affairs and public works in the Congress-NCP government. Jayant Patil: Jayant Patil (57) is perceived as a leader with a clean image. He took charge of the NCP's Maharashtra unit replacing Sunil Tatkare in April 2018, ahead of the crucial Lok Sabha and state Assembly polls. The NCP retained its tally in the 2019 April Lok Sabha election and fared better in the October Assembly polls, but the credit largely went to his boss, Pawar. Being part of a motley alliance of once-rival and ideologically divergent parties, Patil, known for composed demeanour, will be one of the key leaders who will be seen doing the trapeze act to ensure the three-party government sustains. Patil, son of well-known Maharashtra leader the late Rajaram Patil, held key portfolios like finance, home and rural development from 1999 to 2014 when the Congress-NCP combine ruled the state. Eknath Shinde: Shinde (55) is the most prominent face of the Sena in the adjoining Thane city from where has been elected consecutively four terms to the assembly. Considered a troubleshooter in the Sena, Shinde was the PWD minister in the previous BJP-led government (2014-19. Subhash Desai: One of the confidants of Uddhav Thackeray, Desai (77) is currently an MLC. The senior-most member of the cabinet had been a member of the assembly three times. Now serving his third term in the upper house of the legislature, Desai was the industries minister in the 2014-19 BJP-Sena government. Balasaheb Thorat: Congress leader Balasaheb Thorat (66) took charge of the party's state unit at a difficult time. When Thorat became the Maharashtra Congress chief in July this year, the party was already staring down the barrel after its Lok Sabha poll debacle in the state, once its citadel. It could win only one seat in the general election and was relegated to inferior position than its ally, the NCP. The Congress (44) though fared better in the Assembly elections, winning two more seats than its 2014 tally. The result may not be satisfactory for the party, which led the state several times in the past, a trusted lieutenant of the party's central leadership, Thorat ensured proper co-ordination in the state unit hit by factionalism. Thorat, known for maintaining a low profile, was first elected as an MLA from Sangamner in 1985 as an independent. In 1990, he contested Assembly poll on a Congress ticket and this is his eighth term as a legislator. He became a minister of state in 1999 and was promoted as a cabinet minister in 2004. The Congress legislature party leader has held revenue, agriculture, water conservation and protocol portfolios in the past. Nitin Raut: A key leader of the Congress from its erstwhile bastion of Vidarbha in eastern Maharashtra, Raut (62) is a four-term MLA. He is national chairman of the Congress's Scheduled Caste department and one of the working presidents of the party in Maharashtra. Hailing from Nagpur, Raut, too, comes with past experience in government. He has held animal husbandry, employment guarantee and water conservation departments so far.
