Whatever It Takes by theinkandquill

Summary:

The dragon nowhere in sight, Lavinia’s adrenaline slowly started to wane. But the memory of its colossal maw and scorching breath was still fresh in her mind.

“If it’s all the same to you, Professor,” Lavinia gasped. “Next time, I will take the Hogwarts Express.”

***

Lavinia Lin transfers from Ilvermorny to Hogwarts School of Witchcraft and Wizardry, just in time for her fifth year.

Nifty IT jumps 1.3% as Nifty 50, Sensex hit record high led by midcap names: Should you buy, sell or hold?

Stock Market today: Nifty IT Index rebounded 1.3% on Thursday and was among top sectoral index performers. The stocks as Coforge, Persistent, TCS, Mphasis, LTIMindtree, Infosys share prices gained up to 4%. The rebound in the IT index comes after having fallen up to 4.7% year-to-date and around 2.5% in Fiscal year, which provides some relief. The Nify IT index also had underperformed Nifty-50 Index that has risen by around 4.8% year to data and around more than 2% in Financial year 2025 till date . The outlook however remains subdued. Analysts don't see much change in outlook The subdued outlook of the IT companies that was likely to get reset post Q4 results has not happened amidst uncertain macros during FY25. The growth reported came muted and margin improvement was not very encouraging, said analysts. The eyes were on growth guidance and FY25 outlook which still remained muted. Pritesh Thakkar at Prabhudas Lilladher said that FY24 signed-off with another quarter of weak performance within IT services, Although the revenue growth was largely in-line or tad below consensus, the margin improvement or earnings growth was disappointed for selective names. Recovery hopes remain delayed Topline performance is still being impacted by the volatility in the three primary verticals: BFSI, Retail, and Communications. While most firms in BFSI have reported either muted or positive USD growth (median +1.9% sequentially), retail growth has been sluggish (median negative 2.3% sequentially) as per Prabhudas Lilladher data. Prabhudas Lilladher analyst too said that , the suggested FY25 outlook across the board has been lackluster and has fallen below the anticipated line. The same triggered sharper share price correction in Tier-2 names than that of Tier-1, but has led to converge the valuation gap, highlighted analysts.

Analysts at Kotak Institutional Equities in their IT sector report said that IT companies extended outlook for weak demand and macro uncertainty, leading to reset of both growth and margin expectations for FY2025. Reset led to muted growth guidance for all and weaker margin outlook for select companies said analysts. Recovery hopes have been pushed back to FY2026 as per Kotak.

One scorching summer noon in 1970, Gulammohammed Sheikh, Nasreen Mohamedi and their cameras visited Fatehpur Sikri. The artist friends were exploring and photographing the site, when Gulam in a gesture of play/camaraderie/solidarity/curiosity took it upon himself to see what Nasreen was seeing through her lens, and literally positioned his lens such that he could access her perspective. Nasreen’s image of the Anoop Talao at Fatehpur went on to become one of her most reproduced and readily recognised, while Gulam did not develop his negatives for the longest. Years later, when Gulam finally did develop, he realised what had happened: Two near-identical images. *** The above-stated events did not transpire. Not as such, anyway. *** What did transpire then?

China Approves ‘Super Dam’ Project on Lower Reaches of Yarlung Tsangpo, Close to Indian Border

— By Dhairya Maheshwari | Sputnik | March 8, 2021

Originating in China's Tibet Autonomous Region, the Yarlung Tsangpo is the ninth-longest river in the world and passes through some of the most difficult geographical terrain on Earth. Commonly known as the Brahmaputra in India, the river has been a source of friction between China and India because of dam construction activity.

Beijing's new Five-Year Plan (2021-25), presented before the ongoing National People's Congress, has given the nod for the first dam on the lower reaches of the Yarlung Tsangpo River. It will be the first instance of hydroelectric power dam construction activity on the stretch of the river that lies close to the Indian border in the Tibet Autonomous Region (TAR).

The Indian daily The Hindu reported that the draft of the 14th Five-Year Plan clearly states the construction of the project as being among the long-range objectives of the Chinese Communist Party (CCP). According to the daily, the Five-Year Plan will be approved at the conclusion of the National People's Congress on Thursday.

The 4,696-km-long river (commonly known in India as the Brahmaputra River) enters India from China in the state of Arunachal Pradesh, then goes through Assam before it enters Bangladesh and joins the Ganges. The joint rivers ultimately end their course by emptying into the Bay of Bengal.

While Beijing has built dams on the upper and middle stretches of the river, reports about a proposed "Super Dam" on the lower reaches of the river first appeared in Chinese state media in December of last year.

According to a Global Times report in December, the "massive" 60 GW (gigawatt) capacity dam on the lower stream of the Yarlung Tsangpo, described as having "no parallel" in history by Yan Zhiyong, the chair of the Power Construction Corp of China, will help Beijin in meeting its Paris Climate Accord goals of achieving zero carbon emissions by 2030.

The report about the "super dam" raised alarm bells in India, with the federal Water Resources Ministry telling Reuters in December that New Delhi was mulling another 10 GW dam to offset the impact of the Chinese Super Dam upstream.

Chinese Dam to Have 'Significant Impact' on Flow Pattern in India

The proposed Chinese dam on the lowest stream of the Yarlung Tsangpo River will have little impact on the amount of water flowing into India. But it will have significant bearing on the flow pattern of the river, environmentalist Himanshu Thakkar, the coordinator of New Delhi-based South Asia Network on Dams, Rivers, and People (SANDRP), told Sputnik.

He said the Chinese dam was proposed on the lowest of the three streams of Yarlung Tsangpo, which accounts for only 20-25 percent of the overall volume of water getting into India.

"Since the river is known for carrying one of the highest volumes of water among all the rivers, there would be hardly any impact on lower riparian states such as India and Bangladesh on the front", explained Thakkar.

He, however, added with caution that the "change in flow pattern" could have major bearing for India, China's immediate neighbour.

"The project will have little to no impact on Bangladesh on any parameter", said Thakkar.

He explained that the flow pattern refers to the rate of water flow, which "could vary unpredictably" once the Chinese dam comes up upstream.

Thakkar further cautioned that the "amount of silt" flowing in the river once it enters Indian territory could be significantly reduced by the upcoming Chinese dam. "Silt is known for its benefits to farmers. On the Indian side, many (people) around the river depend upon the fertile lands around the river for their livelihoods".

On the back of New Delhi's concerns about the new dam, Chinese Embassy spokesperson Ji Rong said that Beijing would "take the interests" of other riparian states into consideration before planning any hydro projects on the Himalayan river.
