संविधान रचयिता डॉक्टर भीम राव अंबेडकर को बताया भारत का पहला बलात्कारी, आज तक नही हुई कोई भी कार्यवाही

First Rapist of India: भारतीय संविधान के रचयिता डॉक्टर भीम राव अंबेडकर को कई लोग सोशल मीडिया पर भारत का पहला बलात्कारी बता रहे है और इससे संबंधित पोस्टें लगातार पिछले दो-तीन सालों से फेसबुक, इंस्टाग्राम और एक्स जैसे सोशल मीडिया प्लेटफार्मों पर वायरल हो रही है। लेकिन आज तक भारत सरकार ने किसी भी ऐसे आदमी के ���िलाफ कोई एक्शन नहीं लिया। जिससे भारत रत्न डॉक्टर भीम राव अंबेडकर के खिलाफ अफवाह फैलाने…

Krishnagaru will appreciate watching 'Hunt'...! - Sudhir Babu

Nitro star Sudheer Babu's latest movie 'Hunt' is the lead. Famous producer under the banner of Bhavya Creations V. Produced by Ananda Prasad. Directed by Mahesh. It will release in theaters on January 26 on the occasion of Republic Day. On this occasion, Sudhir Babu interacted with the media.

He acted as a police officer with memory loss in the movie. The action was tried anew. Worked with action choreographers who worked for 'John Wick 4'. Those features were shared with interviews. Hi Andy! Who is going to be 'hunted'?

Sudhir Babu : You should see that in the movie. Suspense is all about who is being 'hunted'. I suspect every character. The audience also travels along with my character and learns new things. Kabir Singh Duhan, Maim Gopi, etc. It is a very engaging thriller. Who has Srikanth and Bharat's choice?

Sudhir Babu : Director Mahesh Choice. Srikanth's role is not full length. But, as long as it is there, the impact will show. Mahesh thought it would be good to have a senior hero. Bharath Chayas is also a director. He also has two or three action sequences. If Bharat is more than local heroes, the combination is fresher. Any plans to release it in Tamil?

From The Cutlass Magazine:

“Caribbean Hindustani Interview: Mahadeya Kowlessar

Contrary to popular belief, the language of Bhojpuri or Hindustani is not dead in the Indo-Caribbean community. The Bhojpuri of chutney and Hindi/Urdu of Bollywood echoes throughout our daily lives. Words and phrases have been adopted into the island vernaculars. While the languages may have decayed in spoken form for the masses in Trinidad, Guyana, and Jamaica, among other indenture sites, are they beyond rebirth and preservation?

In this interview, Dr. Visham Bhimull speaks to Mahadeya Kowlessar from South Trinidad. With her white "orhni" (veil) and command of native tongue, she is an embodiment of a time long ago. This dialogue reveals much about our roots and Indo-Caribbean identities. You may be able to isolate words such as "nana-nani" (maternal grandfather-grandmother) or "aja-aji" (paternal grandfather-grandmother), perhaps phrases like "na jane" (I do not know). She exemplifies how our ancestors would have referred to a pre-partitioned India as "muluk" (country) rather than the "Bharat" or "Hindustan" known to South Asians. Bhimull, an Indo-Trinidadian linguist, is spearheading the movement to document these ancestral dialects through his organization Caribbean Hindustani. In doing so, he is continuing in the line of pioneers like Peggy Mohan, working against the inevitable passing of time to protect the endangered Bhojpuri from extinction in the West Indies.”

some additional thoughts on the bharat/india thing apart from its hindu upper caste scriptural origins and its deployment by hindutva, there has always been the rhetorical move of using bharat to denote the underclass and india to denote the elite amongst politicians. even on the left sometimes.

from Reinventing Revolution by Gail Omvedt

In the process Sharad Joshi began putting forward his theory that the primary contradiction in the country was between “Bharat” (primarily the villages but also including the unorganized urban sector, “refugees from Bharat in the cities”) and India (the Westernized industrial-bureaucratic elite, inheritors of colonial exploitation). The issue was one of exploitation, in which surplus was being extracted from the peasantry via the market mechanism and unequal exchange. The key to fighting this exploitation was the demand for higher prices for their crops, that is, “remunerative prices.”

As he told journalist Olga Tellis in a 1980 interview: Before independence it was the British government which took their raw materials for a song, processed the raw materials in London and Manchester, and then sold the finished product at enormous profit. Today, Pune, Calcutta and Bombay are the London and Manchester. And our current rulers have replaced the British in grabbing the wealth of the country. I do not believe in sophisticated terms like “class struggle.” You may call this whatever you like. But I call this the struggle between Bharat and India, the fight for liberation by Bharat from India.

LETTERS FROM AN AMERICAN

April 26, 2024

HEATHER COX RICHARDSON

APR 27, 2024

Yesterday, in a long story about “the petty feud between the [New York Times] and the White House,” Eli Stokols of Politico suggested that the paper’s negative coverage of President Joe Biden came from the frustration of its publisher, A. G. Sulzberger, at Biden’s refusal to do an exclusive interview with the paper. Two people told Stokols that Sulzberger’s reasoning is that only an interview with an established paper like the New York Times “can verify that the 81-year-old Biden is still fit to hold the presidency.” 

For his part, Stokols reported, Biden’s frustration with the New York Times reflects “the resentment of a president with a working-class sense of himself and his team toward a news organization catering to an elite audience,” and their conviction that the newspaper is not taking seriously the need to protect democracy. 

A spokesperson for the New York Times responded to the story by saying the idea that it has skewed its coverage out of pique over an interview is “outrageous and untrue,” and that the paper will continue to cover the president “fully and fairly.”

Today, Biden sat for a live interview of more than an hour with SiriusXM shock jock Howard Stern. Writer Kurt Andersen described it as a “*Total* softball interview, mostly about his personal life—but lovely, sweet, human, and Biden was terrific, consistently clear, detailed, charming, moving. Which was the point. SO much better than his opponent could do.”

Also today, the Treasury Department announced that the pilot program of the Internal Revenue Service (IRS) that enabled taxpayers to file their tax returns directly with the IRS for free had more users than the program’s stated goal, got positive ratings, and saved users an estimated $5.6 million in fees for tax preparation. The government had hoped about 100,000 people would use the pilot program; 140,803 did.

Former deputy director of the National Economic Council Bharat Ramamurti wrote on social media, “Of all the things I was lucky enough to work on, this might be my favorite. You shouldn’t have to pay money to pay your taxes. As this program continues to grow, most people will get pre-populated forms and be able to file their taxes with a few clicks in a few minutes.” Such a system would look much like the system other countries already use. 

Also today, the Federal Trade Commission announced that Williams-Sonoma will pay a record $3.17 million civil penalty for advertising a number of products as “Made in USA” when they were really made in China and other countries. This is the largest settlement ever for a case under the “Made in USA” rule. Williams-Sonoma will also be required to file annual compliance certifications. 

FTC chair Lina Khan wrote on social media: “Made in USA fraud deceives customers and punishes honest businesses. FTC will continue holding to account businesses that misrepresent where their product[s] are manufactured.” 

In another win for the United Auto Workers (UAW), the union negotiated a deal today with Daimler Trucks over contracts for 7,300 Daimler employees in four North Carolina factories. The new contracts provide raises of at least 25% over four years, cost of living increases, and profit sharing. This victory comes just a week after workers at a Volkswagen plant in Chattanooga, Tennessee, voted overwhelmingly to join the UAW. 

Today was the eighth day of Trump’s criminal trial for his efforts to interfere with the 2016 election by paying to hide negative information about himself from voters and then falsifying records to hide the payments. David Pecker, who ran the company that published the National Enquirer tabloid, finished his testimony. 

In four days on the stand, Pecker testified that he joined Michael Cohen and others in killing stories to protect Trump in the election. Trump’s longtime executive assistant Rhona Graff took the stand after Pecker, and testified that both Karen McDougal and Stormy Daniels were in Trump’s contacts. Next up was Gary Farro, a bank employee who verified banking information that showed how Michael Cohen had hidden payments to Daniels in 2016.

Once again, Trump appeared to be trying to explain away his lack of support at the trial, writing on his social media channel that the courthouse was heavily guarded. “Security is that of Fort Knox,” he wrote, “all so that MAGA will not be able to attend this trial….” But CNN’s Kaitlan Collins immediately responded: “Again, the courthouse is open [to] the public. The park outside, where a handful of his supporters have gathered on [trial] days, is easily accessible.”

Dispatch Politics noted today that when co-chairs Michael Whatley and Lara Trump and senior campaign adviser Chris LaCivita took over the Republican National Committee (RNC), they killed a plan to open 40 campaign offices in 10 crucial states and fired 60 members of the RNC staff. According to Dispatch Politics, Trump insisted to the former RNC chair that he did not need the RNC to work on turning out voters. He wanted the RNC to prioritize “election integrity” efforts. 

The RNC under Trump has not yet developed much infrastructure or put staff into the states. It appears to have decided to focus only on those that are key to the presidential race, leaving down-ballot candidates on their own. 

While Trump appears to be hoping to win the election through voter suppression or in the courts, following his blueprint from 2020, Biden’s campaign has opened 30 offices in Michigan alone and has established offices in Wisconsin, Pennsylvania, Nevada, Arizona, Georgia, North Carolina, New Hampshire, and Florida.

Finally today, news broke that in her forthcoming book, South Dakota governor Kristi Noem wrote about shooting her 14-month-old dog because it was “untrainable” and dangerous. “I hated that dog,” she wrote, and she recorded how after the dog ruined a hunting trip, she shot it in a gravel pit. Then she decided to kill a goat that she found to be “nasty and mean” as well as smelly and aggressive. She “dragged him to the gravel pit,” too, and “put him down.”  

Noem has been seen as a leading contender for the Republican vice presidential nomination on a ticket with Trump, and it seems likely she was trying to demonstrate her ruthlessness—a trait Trump appears to value—as a political virtue. But across the political spectrum, people have expressed outrage and disgust. In The Guardian, Martin Pengelly said her statement, “I guess if I were a better politician I wouldn’t tell the story,” was “a contender for the greatest understatement of election year.”

There is a strong need for digital transformation in the construction business

With rising demand for homes and building supplies, the Indian construction industry is anticipated to expand at a 6.2% annual pace in the next years. Construction materials, which make up two-thirds of the overall cost of building, will become more expensive as a result of this rise in material costs, supply chain problems, and inflation. Consumers are unwilling to cut corners when it comes to the quality of the materials used, despite price rises. According to Ashish Aggarwal, Director, SpaceMantra, the building sector is embracing digital technologies like virtual design, VR home tours, cloud-based software, and big data analytics more and more to streamline the real estate process. Mr. Aggarwal discusses his thoughts on the real estate market's current status and how digitization might be a key factor in the future in an exclusive interview with Sanjeev Sinha. India's real estate development industry is booming as a result of the nation's record-high housing demand. How will this impact how construction materials required to develop this infrastructure are consumed and priced? The market dynamics have dramatically changed as of 2023. Since that materials make up around two thirds of the overall cost of building, developers will be forced to raise prices as a result of increased material costs. The supply side shocks, increasing inflation, and the frail global supply chain all contributed to a decline in raw material prices. Customers won't compromise on the quality of the building materials used, therefore a price increase to some level could have a detrimental impact on the fast expanding real estate market. Nowadays, consumers like to choose each component of their ideal home individually. How does it impact online purchasing habits in the digital age?” Allowing clients to hand-pick each component of their dream home helps to give customers the autonomy to decide how their dream home will look in today's increasingly digital world. Yet, doing so can cause the procurement process to go more slowly. Customers and businesses may now choose their preferences from a variety of raw material types, grades, and pricing online in just a few simple steps. With this kind of digital procurement, you may quickly and effectively get the precise materials your project needs. How is the real estate sector using technology to better serve their clients? Due to the increased disruption of the global supply chain, rising competitiveness, and labour shortages, there is an increasingly urgent need for digital transformation in the construction industry. An increasing number of innovative technologies are being incorporated into the building business. Virtual design and visualisation are common in these technologies. The real estate process is made more tech-savvy and results in a smooth experience thanks to virtual reality home tours, cloud-based software, smart contracts, and big data analytics. What are some trends and predictions we can look forward to for the construction sector this year as we usher in a brand-new year? A strong strategy of infrastructure projects in numerous industries is predicted to help the Indian construction industry grow at a 6.2% annual rate from 2023 to 2026. Investment in the construction sector will increase as a result of government initiatives like Atmanirbhar Bharat, which is anticipated to boost domestic industries and micro, small, and medium-sized enterprises (MSMEs), and the Pradhan Mantri Gati Shakti National Master Plan, which aims to drive economic growth through infrastructure development. What lies in store for SpaceMantra going forward in 2023? Building a one-stop eB2B platform is part of SpaceMantra's ambition to organise and unify the extremely dispersed and unorganised construction industry. 

We are working hard to strengthen our vendor base by developing close relationships with brands and manufacturers. 

This will enable us to provide our product line to customers at lower pricing. 

We are also attempting to address the industry's long-standing problems with procurement. 

By providing a variety of integrated services that will help them overcome their operational issues, we intend to increase the number of customers we serve in the future.

..."Facing a divided Congress unlikely to pass major legislation, President Joe Biden’s administration is now cajoling or working with private companies to advance an otherwise stymied policy agenda on everything from prescription drug costs to expanding child care options.

On Wednesday, Biden celebrated pharmaceutical giant Eli Lilly’s announcement that it would slash and cap the cost of insulin. Earlier in the week, the Commerce Department announced it would require chipmakers to offer plans for affordable child care to qualify for more than $50 billion in subsidies. And three major airlines responded to Biden’s call in the State of the Union to eliminate fees for parents and children to sit together by doing just that.

All three announcements advance the administration’s long-standing policy goals — to lower prescription drug costs, to expand affordable child care options and to eliminate so-called “junk fees” — in ways Congress has so far been unable to. It shows how the administration is turning to public pressure and regulations to enact its agenda.

“The president’s bully pulpit is a really important tool that he’s using to reduce costs for families in a number of ways,” Bharat Ramamurti, the deputy director of the White House’s National Economic Council, told HuffPost in a phone interview. “It’s not meant to substitute for getting things through Congress, or for getting something done in rulemaking.”

Key to the efforts is the underlying popularity of the ideas: Lowering prescription drug costs has long been one of the public’s biggest priorities, and public surveys show Biden’s push against junk fees is broadly popular.

“We pick these issues where there is something fundamentally unfair and unreasonable that is happening, and you shine the presidential spotlight on it,” Ramamurti continued. “The president must have talked about lowering the price of insulin 100 times over the last year and a half as he’s been pushing for this, and this week you saw a pharmaceutical company respond to his call to act.”

The tactic is not a new one for the White House. Shortly after Biden unveiled his antitrust agenda with a sweeping executive order in 2021 including a push for “right to repair,” Apple announced it would sell repair kits to the public for the first time."

Haven't been on fb much, but RIP Ustad Zakir Hussain. The first concert I remember was him and his dad Ustad Alla Rakha at Carnegie Hall, when I was 3 years old. It was snowing outside, and such a classic New York moment.

When we were growing up in the US, and studying European and Indian classical music or dance, the Suzuki Method, Bach, and bharat natyam, there were less than a handful of artists invited from India to those elite stages. Zubin Mehta conducted European music at the Philharmonic Orchestra. Ravi Shankar was famous with the hippies and stoners. Zakir Hussain, and of course, his father - maybe I should reverse the order, since his father came first. It was over the decades that American tastes opened up, the World Music Institute sponsored artists, and our own parents' generation started hosting artists here in the US. Now Lincoln Center has a whole week dedicated to South Asian artists, and Times Square has the biggest Diwali outside of India.

The story started a little bit earlier in the 1950's, when my mom's great-aunt Mrs. Byramjee would invite all the artists and influential people to her house in Nagpur. So it was there that my mom first saw Ustad Alla Rakha play, and Zakir Ji was 9 years old. My mom was 13. They were later invited to his apartment in Mumbai, when some other musicians were visiting. Ustad Alla Rakha later traveled the world with Ravi Shankar, and Zakir Ji grew up back stage at Woodstock, the Monterey Pop Festival, and the night markets of Mumbai, where the street drummers would get the crowd going crazy during festivals. They were rock stars.

In the late 90's, Asian Underground music started, and classical music started crossing over into club nights and electronic music, as our generation started making their own music professionally. I had just graduated from music-heavy Oberlin and moved to the East Village, when I saw an unforgettable concert of Zakir Ji with Tito Puente, the Puerto Rican drummer from Harlem, at Symphony Space. At one point, they made the audience clap along and it sounded like the rain forest. Tito Puente died later that year. Suphala, one of this students, scoured New York clubs playing tabla with alien electronic, or country, collaborations. Rimpa Shiva, another student, came up in India on the more classical side. But some purists would consider Zakir Ji to be the tops, and none of these "youngsters" on his level. They were too rock, or too clubby, or too "what is this?"

One day I was taking the bus from West Orange to Manhattan, a New Jersey commuter bus, and @Talvin Singh got on. They were recording Tabla Beat Science at Bill Laswell's studio on Main Street and Llewellyn Park. What a small world. My sister had taken drum lessons in the studio above where they recorded. Some other friends like Karsh Kale and The Midival Punditz, were also on this album.

A couple of years later, in 2001, I had moved to San Francisco, and my first music documentary was interviewing Zakir ji and the Tabla Beat Science Crew at Stern Grove. It was a sold out show in a park, and people had climbed the trees in true San Francisco hippie style, to watch the concert. I have that interview somewhere. Zakir Ji was actually nicer and friendlier than some of the younger and less established artists. This was summer before 9/11.

We started 3rd I South Asian Films a few months before that. We had a safe space post-9/11 when all the anti-South Asian hate crimes backlash was happening. In September 2003, we hosted the US Premiere of the Speaking Hand, which was Zakir Hussain's biography. I had met the director when he was making ads in Mumbai. There was some internal conflict, as some people in our collective didn't think it was "political" or "activist" enough, and kind of a bougie fundraiser...but I could say that music unites, we sold out, and our fundraiser was successful. It was a conflicted and Islamophobic time of war, and he could talk eloquently about music uniting people on a spiritual and international level. Also his own practice of the classical and ancient tradition - combined different beats as representing different goddesses or different spiritual and religious practices from Ganesh to Sufi saints. As many of the classical musicians are spiritual, and music is a higher power.

We had a live Q&A, and people never hear him talk in person, especially for so long. I also met his wife & manager Antonia Minnecola at this point, who was a dancer.

As the screening wrapped up, the audience of 500 aunties and uncles, went crazy, bum rushed the stage to meet Zakir Ji, as you see the old movies of the Beatles. One of these people was - my Dad! Acting like a teenage girl. So as the organizer, I scolded him under my breath in Marathi, "Why are you acting so crazy? Act cool." Zakir Ji, having grown up in Mumbai, spoke Marathi. So he saw this interaction and started speaking in Marathi and Gujarati to calm people down, "Calm down, what's the big deal?" Still it was funny to see an Indian classical musician get such a maniac fan response in New York. He was truly an icon. From that experience, I also learned to plan for celebrities and security on sets. Later I was asked to do a commercial with Shah Rukh Khan, and I remembered - the fan base that can show up suddenly.

Over the years, we would try to say Hi after the shows. Initially it was pretty informal. Later the venue unions and post-covid made it more strict. They would kick everyone out of Madison Square Garden. He always remembered me, considering how many people he met over the year. I met his daughters. The younger one was starting college. Anisa Angelica Qureshi later turned out to have a lot of mutual friends.

For an Indian from IST (Indian Standard Time), he liked to shame people for being late. Once I came half way through a show, because I had an evening grad school class. I thought I snuck in the back and sat discreetly in a black kurta, in the shadows. But afterwards, he reprimanded me, "You were 34 minutes late! I saw the clock when you walked in." If someone was late to his show and sat in front, he would play slow music until they finally sat down, drawing attention of the whole audience to that late person.

He had a sense of humor, and after a serious, classical show, would play the Pink Panther in the last set.

I started working in India, and caught him playing at the small Prithvi Theater in Juhu, where Bollywood legend Shabana Azmi attended. Another show was a huge, outdoor, public festival at the Asiatic Library Steps. The stage was set up between road closures. Street People were lined up outside the ropes to listen. Here you really felt India, in the ancient music and the crowds of Mumbai, and the smells of the streets, and the colonial library, mixed with something ancient mixed with modern cars and sweat and heat, and the sea breeze. It was really outside an A/C classical music hall in a cold, snowy country. Here you had a performer, who could still capture everyone's attention, with all these distractions of the Mumbai streets. Blue Frog and other venues were opening up in Mumbai. His brother Taufiq Qureshi played with some beatboxers...an idea I had pitched ten years before that.

Many years later, I saw him in Sacramento. DIWAL'OWEEN had won 13 awards, and he was really proud of me. Although I was aware of all the mistakes I had made. He had scored so many films, and I always wanted to collaborate on something...one day, when I had the budget.

I always made an effort to see Masters of Percussion once a year, when he would bring different percussionists from India. At one show at Town Hall, in New York, a mridangam player was 90 years old and had never left Rajasthan before. He shouted during his set, and the lights blacked out. The "show went on," to the next set. We thought it was some experimental, jazz type thing. Later we found out an ambulance had come back stage, and the performer had died on stage, doing what he loved! But that's how pro the Broadway stage managers were - to just move on with it. Another time, at a qawwali show at Town Hall, someone fell off the balcony while dancing ecstatically, and the crowd caught him.

After the lock down year, Masters of Percussion was the first concert I went back to, wearing a mask. He had just won another Grammy, and was touring the remembrance of Shivkumar Sharma.

Thanks for bringing so much joy and music to us, Zakir Hussain.

[ad_1] Bowlers dominated the proceedings on day 1 in Perth. (PC: X.com) It’s a measure of how much Australia have dominated under lights with the pink ball in Adelaide that the Gabba Test is now seen as an ‘easier’ game. Even when it was justifiably labelled the Gabbatoir – where visiting teams went to get slaughtered – the near-century-old venue in Brisbane never saw the hosts win more than seven in a row. If, as expected, Australia complete the formalities on Sunday, it will be their eighth successive pink-ball triumph in Adelaide.  Make no mistake though, Brisbane will be a formidable challenge for Rohit Sharma and his men, especially after crashing down to Earth with a thud in Adelaide. From the time the glory years began with the 1989 Ashes win in England, Australia have won 26 of their 34 Tests at the Gabba. Their first defeat in more than three decades came courtesy the heist engineered by Shubman Gill and Rishabh Pant in January 2021. And it took a similarly implausible passage of play, from Shamar Joseph bowling with a broken foot, to beat Australia earlier this year.  And while India will take plenty of encouragement from what happened nearly four years ago, Adelaide has compounded questions about the team selection and coaching staff. On a skiddy surface, was Harshit Rana a better bet than Akash Deep? And with batting under lights in the second and third sessions the greater challenge, did moving Rohit Sharma down to No. 6 make sense?  Most surprising was Morne Morkel’s admission of his unhappiness with the lengths India bowled on the first evening. When India won in 2018-19 and again two years later, the coach-bowling coach duo of Ravi Shastri and Bharat Arun were proactive rather than reactive. Also, you wouldn’t hear a word of criticism of the players in public. There were stern words, often, in the privacy of the dressing room, but no attempt to pass the buck in front of the microphone.  More than one player has spoken of how Shastri’s relentless positivity and Arun’s more understated, but meticulous, attention to detail played a part in the remarkable turnaround from 36 all out in the last pink-ball Test India played in Australia. A team that’s winning every match it plays almost doesn’t need coaching staff. Things run themselves. It’s when things go pear-shaped on the field that the support staff have to earn their corn and back up the captain.  Indian cricket’s biggest crisis is obviously that leadership. Had any other player scored 142 runs in his last 12 Test innings, the Dear-John-Goodbye letters would have been penned by now. But Rohit Sharma is no ordinary player. He has led the side through a difficult transition, often brilliantly, and come into his own as a Test player after a delayed start to his career.  But when you’re 37 and your numbers start to fall off a cliff, it presents selectors with the toughest questions. Greg Chappell, India’s coach in a tumultuous phase between 2005 and 2007, alluded to it in his interview with RevSportz’s Subhayan Chakraborty. Deposing a captain in the middle of a series could have huge consequences for dressing-room morale. India won’t do that. But Rohit’s race, at least in whites, looks to be run.  A captain struggling with his primary skill can also be distracted on the field. That’s where the coaching staff and senior players like Virat Kohli and Jasprit Bumrah will need to pick up the slack. If Rohit seems listless, they need to find ways to pump up the volume and get the team playing with the intensity they showed in Perth. It won’t be easy. The Gabbatoir was called that for a reason, and if Mohammed Siraj thinks the Adelaide crowd was hostile, wait till he gets near the boundary in Brisbane. This itinerary was drawn up so that India would be hit hardest first up. They somehow dodged the blows and landed haymakers of their own in Perth, but Adelaide went on expected lines. They now need to survive part three of the horror trilogy in Brisbane to navigate what looks an increasingly difficult path to the World Test Championship final next summer.

There were stern words, often, in the privacy of the dressing room, but no attempt to pass the buck in front of the microphone.  More than one player has spoken of how Shastri’s relentless positivity and Arun’s more understated, but meticulous, attention to detail played a part in the remarkable turnaround from 36 all out in the last pink-ball Test India played in Australia. A team that’s winning every match it plays almost doesn’t need coaching staff. Things run themselves. It’s when things go pear-shaped on the field that the support staff have to earn their corn and back up the captain.  Indian cricket’s biggest crisis is obviously that leadership. Had any other player scored 142 runs in his last 12 Test innings, the Dear-John-Goodbye letters would have been penned by now. But Rohit Sharma is no ordinary player. He has led the side through a difficult transition, often brilliantly, and come into his own as a Test player after a delayed start to his career.  But when you’re 37 and your numbers start to fall off a cliff, it presents selectors with the toughest questions. Greg Chappell, India’s coach in a tumultuous phase between 2005 and 2007, alluded to it in his interview with RevSportz’s Subhayan Chakraborty. Deposing a captain in the middle of a series could have huge consequences for dressing-room morale. India won’t do that. But Rohit’s race, at least in whites, looks to be run.  A captain struggling with his primary skill can also be distracted on the field. That’s where the coaching staff and senior players like Virat Kohli and Jasprit Bumrah will need to pick up the slack. If Rohit seems listless, they need to find ways to pump up the volume and get the team playing with the intensity they showed in Perth. It won’t be easy. The Gabbatoir was called that for a reason, and if Mohammed Siraj thinks the Adelaide crowd was hostile, wait till he gets near the boundary in Brisbane. This itinerary was drawn up so that India would be hit hardest first up. They somehow dodged the blows and landed haymakers of their own in Perth, but Adelaide went on expected lines. They now need to survive part three of the horror trilogy in Brisbane to navigate what looks an increasingly difficult path to the World Test Championship final next summer.

Mastering IAS Preparation: The Role of Daily Current Affairs

For aspirants of competitive exams like IAS, staying updated with daily current affairs is not just important—it’s essential. Covering topics ranging from national policies to global developments, current affairs provide the context and knowledge needed to ace the General Studies papers and the interview stage. Here's why they matter and how to tackle them effectively.

Why Are Daily Current Affairs Crucial?

The dynamic nature of the IAS syllabus means a significant portion is driven by current events. Daily updates enhance your understanding of real-world applications of theoretical concepts, improving your ability to write impactful answers. Moreover, topics like economy, environment, and international relations rely heavily on current happenings.

Building a Daily Routine for Current Affairs

Consistency is key when it comes to mastering current affairs. Here’s a simple routine:

Morning Read: Start your day by reading a reputed newspaper like The Hindu or Indian Express.

Online Resources: Use platforms like PIB, RBI updates, or KGS IAS current affairs summaries to focus on key government policies and initiatives.

Highlight and Note: Jot down significant data, reports, or quotes to use in your answers.

Connecting Current Affairs with IAS Preparation

Simply reading the news isn’t enough—you need to integrate it into your preparation. For instance:

If a new environmental policy is launched, relate it to topics in ecology and climate change.

Analyze editorials to improve your critical thinking and essay writing skills.

Use current affairs to back your arguments with examples in ethics papers or optional subjects.

Topical Areas to Focus On

Prioritize areas that are often asked in exams, such as:

Government Policies and Programs: Focus on schemes like PMAY, Swachh Bharat Abhiyan, etc.

International Relations: Stay updated on summits, agreements, and global conflicts.

Science and Technology: Innovations in AI, healthcare, or space missions.

Conclusion

Daily current affairs act as the backbone of IAS preparation, providing relevance and depth to your study. By developing a systematic approach, aspirants can gain the edge needed to excel in their exams. Remember, it’s not about quantity but the quality of your insights that counts.
