Finance minister Nirmala Sitharaman NEW DELHI: Finance minister Nirmala Sitharaman Wednesday said that govt is moving to update the base year for calculating GDP to 2022-23 instead of 2010-11 and dismissed concerns over an IMF report’s reference to India’s data quality.The new base, which will also come with a revised basket to goods and services, will reflect the changes in the economy as consumption patterns have changed over the last 15 years. Data based on the new series will be released on Feb 27 with the first advance estimate based on the current base to be released on Jan 7. There will also be changes in the base year for inflation and industrial production next year.India’s economic data has come under scrutiny, and a revamp is seen to be necessary to capture the changes in the digital economy.Recently, IMF in its annual report on India gave negative remarks on quality of data & called for measures to make it more up to date.Responding to the IMF report, which was raised in Lok Sabha, Sitharaman said that the multilateral agency focused largely on India’s overall healthy economic performance.“The ratings given by IMF are part of its report on the Indian economy, which expects India’s GDP to grow at 6.5% in 2025-26. It recognises growth in the private sector, macroeconomic stability and the resilience of the Indian financial sector. These are identified as key drivers of growth. IMF also notes that inflation is well below RBI’s tolerance band and is projected to be 4.3% for the full year. The point of contention was the quality of data on which the ‘C’ grade was given. The ‘C’ grade is assigned to the National Accounts data because it is based on an outdated base year — 2011-12,” she said.She said that govt is in the process of updating the base year. “So, the data currently being used is based on the 2011-12 base year, and it is solely for this reason that we have been given a ‘C’ grade. The IMF report does not question the growth figures,” she said, rejecting opposition’s criticism.Latest data released by NSO, estimated India’s GDP to have grown by scorching 8.2% in the July-Sept quarter, after a robust 7.8% in the first three months of the financial year.End of ArticleFollow Us On Social MediaVideos”Derogatory” BJP Hits Out at Revanth Reddy Over Remarks On Hindu DeitiesOver 70 IndiGo Flights Cancelled Across India as Crew Shortage Triggers Massive Disruption“India’s Diplomacy Has Spine”: Tharoor Praises India’s Assertive Foreign Policy On RussiaRahul–Priyanka Candid Chat Goes Viral As Camera Catches Fun Banter’We Have A Diplomatic Allergy’: Shashi Tharoor Warns India Still Lacks A National Security StrategySanchar Saathi App Row In LS: Cong Flags Privacy Fears, Scindia Says ‘Snooping Not Possible’Rupee Slides To Record Low Of 90 Per Dollar As Trade Uncertainty, Dollar Demand And Oil Costs Spike’Leader Is Bulldozing’: Kharge, Nadda Lock Horns Over TMC MP’s Speech In Rajya SabhaIndia’s Workforce Power Will Keep Growing, Jaishankar Says, As He Takes Down Anti H-1B NarrativesKTR Slams Congress, Says Rahul Gandhi Has No Vision And Is An Albatross Around Opposition’s Neck123Photostories10 best foods to boost muscle growth and strengthSay these 5 nighttime affirmations and watch your life transform in just days5 brutally honest lessons to take from Virat Kohli on how to crush successMalaika Arora’s yoga secrets: 5 beginner-friendly poses for body & mindHow Bhagavad Gita can heal unknown childhood trauma and unlock blockages for success in lifeInside Earth’s forbidden zones:5 deadly and mysterious places where entry is banned8 reasons to have a bowl of pomegranate daily for breakfast5 quotes by William Shakespeare that are like love bombs that hit different every timeFrom ‘Pather Panchali’ to ‘Devdas’: Films that won awards, audiences and critics worldwideWhy Ramayana still guides parenting today: 10 lessons to live by123Hot PicksParliament Winter SessionPutin India VisitWorld NewsGold rate todaySilver rate todayPublic Holidays NovemberBank Holidays NovemberTop TrendingNBA Trade RumorsAPTET Admit CardShedeur SandersRGPV Diploma Result 2025KTET May and June ResultsStephen CurryAmar SubramanyaHarshit RanaTravis TurnerShacarri Richardson

The BJP has reacted strongly against remarks from two Congress Chief Ministers, which they regard as mockery of Hindu traditions. Spokesman Sudhanshu Trivedi called into question whether Congress is employing tactics that demean Hindu deities, spotlighting comments by Telangana’s CM Revanth Reddy and Himachal CM Sukhwinder Singh Sukhu’s exchanges with young audiences. CM Revanth Reddy met PM Narendra Modi Wednesday seeking support for Telangana’s  trillion vision and invited him to Telangana Rising Summit NEW DELHI: BJP Wednesday reacted furiously to the remarks of two Congress CMs “mocking” Hinduism and recalled a series of similar comments made by the functionaries of INDIA bloc to ask Rahul Gandhi if insulting Hindu gods has become a part of his party’s strategy.“How many gods do Hindus believe in? Three crore? Why so many? One god for the unmarried — Hanuman. Another for those who marry twice. And another for those who drink alcohol,” Telangana CM Revanth Reddy said in Telugu at an event, according to its translation posted by BJP.Himachal CM Sukhwinder Singh Sukhu was seen in a viral video telling a group of youngsters as to why they are using “Radhe Radhe” greeting, drawing BJP’s ire.BJP spokesperson Sudhanshu Trivedi said while Reddy is making fun of Hindu gods and goddesses, Sukhu is stopping young people from offering a religious greeting. “Have Congress and Rahul instructed their CMs to directly attack Hinduism and its gods and goddesses,” he asked at a presser. These are not isolated incidents and functionaries of Congress and its allies have repeatedly insulted Sanatan Dharma, he added.Reddy had earlier said that Congress means Muslims, and Muslims mean Congress, Trivedi said. “Rahul used pictures of gods but didn’t take oath in the name of god. He has on several occasions insulted Sanatan Dharma. Congress ally DMK had organised an event for the eradication of Sanatan Dharma,” he said.He highlighted PM Modi’s critcism of Congress as “Muslim League-Maoist” to assert that Congress is behaving true to the description with unruly conducts by its MPs, including Rahul, in Parliament, their insult of institutions & its agenda of “spreading hate against Hinduism”.End of ArticleFollow Us On Social MediaVideos”Derogatory” BJP Hits Out at Revanth Reddy Over Remarks On Hindu DeitiesOver 70 IndiGo Flights Cancelled Across India as Crew Shortage Triggers Massive Disruption“India’s Diplomacy Has Spine”: Tharoor Praises India’s Assertive Foreign Policy On RussiaRahul–Priyanka Candid Chat Goes Viral As Camera Catches Fun Banter’We Have A Diplomatic Allergy’: Shashi Tharoor Warns India Still Lacks A National Security StrategySanchar Saathi App Row In LS: Cong Flags Privacy Fears, Scindia Says ‘Snooping Not Possible’Rupee Slides To Record Low Of 90 Per Dollar As Trade Uncertainty, Dollar Demand And Oil Costs Spike’Leader Is Bulldozing’: Kharge, Nadda Lock Horns Over TMC MP’s Speech In Rajya SabhaIndia’s Workforce Power Will Keep Growing, Jaishankar Says, As He Takes Down Anti H-1B NarrativesKTR Slams Congress, Says Rahul Gandhi Has No Vision And Is An Albatross Around Opposition’s Neck123PhotostoriesMammootty, Malayalam cinema and Bheeshma Parvam; Iconic roles ranked from cult classics to crowd favouritesProsenjit Chatterjee rising in Bollywood with intense and unforgettable characters10 best foods to boost muscle growth and strengthSay these 5 nighttime affirmations and watch your life transform in just days5 brutally honest lessons to take from Virat Kohli on how to crush successMalaika Arora’s yoga secrets: 5 beginner-friendly poses for body & mindHow Bhagavad Gita can heal unknown childhood trauma and unlock blockages for success in lifeInside Earth’s forbidden zones:5 deadly and mysterious places where entry is banned8 reasons to have a bowl of pomegranate daily for breakfast5 quotes by William Shakespeare that are like love bombs that hit different every time123Hot PicksParliament Winter SessionPutin India VisitWorld NewsGold rate todaySilver rate todayPublic Holidays NovemberBank Holidays NovemberTop TrendingNBA Trade RumorsMike TysonWendy OrtizCardi BAuston MatthewsStephen CurryNathan MacKinnonJayden DanielsSuper Bowl LX Halftime ShowMolly Qerim

The Supreme Court has made a pivotal ruling that requires bridegrooms to return any financial gifts received from their father-in-law upon divorce, directing that these gifts should revert to the bride. This decision, rooted in addressing patriarchal biases, references the Muslim Women’s Act of 1986, designed to safeguard women’s dignity and economic stability post-divorce. Supreme Court NEW DELHI: Noting that inherent patriarchal discrimination is still the order of the day, Supreme Court has said gifts given by parents not only to their daughter but to the bridegroom at the time of marriage have to be returned to her if it ends in divorce.Applying a provision of the Muslim Women (Protection of Rights on Divorce) Act, 1986, a bench of Justices Sanjay Karol and N K Singh quashed a Calcutta high court order that had allowed a man to retain the gifts given by his father-in-law.“The Constitution of India prescribes an aspiration for all, ie equality which is, obviously, yet to be achieved. Courts, in doing their bit to this end, must ground their reasoning in social justice adjudication. To put it in context, the scope and object of the 1986 Act is concerned with securing the dignity and financial protection of Muslim women post her divorce which aligns with the rights of women under Article 21 of the Constitution,” the bench said.“The construction of this Act, therefore, must keep at the forefront equality, dignity and autonomy and must be done in the light of lived experiences of women where, particularly in smaller towns and rural areas, inherent patriarchal discrimination is still the order of the day,” the court said.It said Section 3 of the Act granted a woman right over all properties given to her before or at the time of marriage or after her marriage by her relatives or friends or husband or any relatives of the husband or his friends.“The section quoted above deals with mehr/dower and/or other properties given to a woman at the time of her marriage clearing the way for the woman to set up a claim against her husband in the above situations, or claim back from her husband properties given, as the case may be,” the bench said.End of ArticleFollow Us On Social MediaVideos”Derogatory” BJP Hits Out at Revanth Reddy Over Remarks On Hindu DeitiesOver 70 IndiGo Flights Cancelled Across India as Crew Shortage Triggers Massive Disruption“India’s Diplomacy Has Spine”: Tharoor Praises India’s Assertive Foreign Policy On RussiaRahul–Priyanka Candid Chat Goes Viral As Camera Catches Fun Banter’We Have A Diplomatic Allergy’: Shashi Tharoor Warns India Still Lacks A National Security StrategySanchar Saathi App Row In LS: Cong Flags Privacy Fears, Scindia Says ‘Snooping Not Possible’Rupee Slides To Record Low Of 90 Per Dollar As Trade Uncertainty, Dollar Demand And Oil Costs Spike’Leader Is Bulldozing’: Kharge, Nadda Lock Horns Over TMC MP’s Speech In Rajya SabhaIndia’s Workforce Power Will Keep Growing, Jaishankar Says, As He Takes Down Anti H-1B NarrativesKTR Slams Congress, Says Rahul Gandhi Has No Vision And Is An Albatross Around Opposition’s Neck123PhotostoriesProsenjit Chatterjee rising in Bollywood with intense and unforgettable characters10 best foods to boost muscle growth and strengthSay these 5 nighttime affirmations and watch your life transform in just days5 brutally honest lessons to take from Virat Kohli on how to crush successMalaika Arora’s yoga secrets: 5 beginner-friendly poses for body & mindHow Bhagavad Gita can heal unknown childhood trauma and unlock blockages for success in lifeInside Earth’s forbidden zones:5 deadly and mysterious places where entry is banned8 reasons to have a bowl of pomegranate daily for breakfast5 quotes by William Shakespeare that are like love bombs that hit different every timeFrom ‘Pather Panchali’ to ‘Devdas’: Films that won awards, audiences and critics worldwide123Hot PicksParliament Winter SessionPutin India VisitWorld NewsGold rate todaySilver rate todayPublic Holidays NovemberBank Holidays NovemberTop TrendingNBA Trade RumorsMike TysonWendy OrtizCardi BAuston MatthewsStephen CurryNathan MacKinnonJayden DanielsSuper Bowl LX Halftime ShowMolly Qerim

NEW DELHI: The rebound in exports in Nov will help erase the dip seen in Oct, commerce and industry minister Piyush Goyal said Wednesday. Although there was no mention of the exact figure, he said, “If I aggregate Oct and Nov, both months show growth in merchandise (exports) despite all the global turmoil. This only goes to show that the economy is on a strong footing.”In response to a question on the record low of the Rupee, the minister said Indian economy was on a strong footing and would continue to power up. “Growth we just saw is at 8.2% even in the second quarter, beating all estimates. We have seen the lowest ever inflation in the last few months. Foreign exchange reserves continue to be strong, and all the levers of the economy have demonstrated a great deal of positivity.”At a CII event, the minister called for strengthening supply chains and preparing for global volatility with a “twin approach,” building on areas where it holds a comparative advantage while simultaneously achieving strategic autonomy in sectors where supply-chain dependence can threaten long-term resilience.He also said the future of manufacturing lies in being nimble, with companies that innovate, invest in R&D, and build secure, efficient supply chains surviving, while “those who remain in their cocoon of low competition protected economies will gradually start fading.”End of ArticleFollow Us On Social MediaVideos”Derogatory” BJP Hits Out at Revanth Reddy Over Remarks On Hindu DeitiesOver 70 IndiGo Flights Cancelled Across India as Crew Shortage Triggers Massive Disruption“India’s Diplomacy Has Spine”: Tharoor Praises India’s Assertive Foreign Policy On RussiaRahul–Priyanka Candid Chat Goes Viral As Camera Catches Fun Banter’We Have A Diplomatic Allergy’: Shashi Tharoor Warns India Still Lacks A National Security StrategySanchar Saathi App Row In LS: Cong Flags Privacy Fears, Scindia Says ‘Snooping Not Possible’Rupee Slides To Record Low Of 90 Per Dollar As Trade Uncertainty, Dollar Demand And Oil Costs Spike’Leader Is Bulldozing’: Kharge, Nadda Lock Horns Over TMC MP’s Speech In Rajya SabhaIndia’s Workforce Power Will Keep Growing, Jaishankar Says, As He Takes Down Anti H-1B NarrativesKTR Slams Congress, Says Rahul Gandhi Has No Vision And Is An Albatross Around Opposition’s Neck123Photostories10 best foods to boost muscle growth and strengthSay these 5 nighttime affirmations and watch your life transform in just days5 brutally honest lessons to take from Virat Kohli on how to crush successMalaika Arora’s yoga secrets: 5 beginner-friendly poses for body & mindHow Bhagavad Gita can heal unknown childhood trauma and unlock blockages for success in lifeInside Earth’s forbidden zones:5 deadly and mysterious places where entry is banned8 reasons to have a bowl of pomegranate daily for breakfast5 quotes by William Shakespeare that are like love bombs that hit different every timeFrom ‘Pather Panchali’ to ‘Devdas’: Films that won awards, audiences and critics worldwideWhy Ramayana still guides parenting today: 10 lessons to live by123Hot PicksParliament Winter SessionPutin India VisitWorld NewsGold rate todaySilver rate todayPublic Holidays NovemberBank Holidays NovemberTop TrendingNBA Trade RumorsMike TysonWendy OrtizCardi BAuston MatthewsStephen CurryNathan MacKinnonJayden DanielsSuper Bowl LX Halftime ShowMolly Qerim

Jammu and Kashmir Chief Minister Omar Abdullah stated his government has finalized a rationalized reservation policy, forwarding it to Lieutenant Governor Manoj Sinha for approval. This move comes amid concerns from general category candidates about potential quota increases. A cabinet sub-committee, formed to address the issue, submitted its report, aiming for fairness to all communities.

Beyond Type 1, co-founded by Nick Jonas and supported by Priyanka Chopra Jonas, has launched #TheBeyondType campaign in India to combat type 1 diabetes stigma. The initiative highlights inspiring individuals living with T1D and partners with local organisations to improve awareness, medical support, and community networks for affected families across the nation. . Beyond Type 1, global nonprofit co-founded by Nick Jonas and supported by board member Priyanka Chopra Jonas, launched its first campaign in India — #TheBeyondType. The initiative aims to build awareness about type 1 diabetes (T1D), challenge stigma and strengthen support for families across the country.India has more young people living with T1D than any other nation, yet understanding of the condition remains limited. Type 1 diabetes is an autoimmune condition, not caused by age or lifestyle, but stigma often leads families to miss early symptoms such as excessive thirst, frequent urination, fatigue and sudden weight loss.Priyanka Chopra Jonas stressed the importance of bringing more real stories to the forefront. “India has extraordinary people living with Type 1 diabetes, yet their stories are rarely heard,” she said. “I came to understand this community more deeply through my husband Nick, and I’ve witnessed firsthand the strength and determination that so many people living with T1D carry every single day. The Beyond Type brings a few of these stories forward, and shows that with proper care and access, diabetes does not define them or limit what they can achieve.”The campaign highlights people who continue to follow their ambitions despite living with T1D, including triathlete Lt Col Kumar Gaurav, karate champion Mehrin Rana, pastry chef Nishant Amin, toy designer Shreya Jain, dancer and actor Indu Thampy and marathon runner Harichandran Ponnusamy. As Mehrin puts it, “Diabetes is just a part of my life, not a limit. A person with type 1 can do everything in their life without any limits.”Nick Jonas, diagnosed with T1D at age 13, emphasised why the campaign matters in India. “I know for myself how diabetes doesn’t have to limit you, but only when you have access to the right care, tools, and support,” he said. “That’s why we’re here in India, where awareness is low and stigma remains high, to help make that possible for everyone. Through my own family, I’ve come to love India deeply, and I’m proud of the progress already underway.”Research shows how stigma affects everyday life for young people with T1D. A study published in PLOS Global Public Health found that many hide their diagnosis, avoid taking insulin in public and face family pressure, especially girls, to stay silent due to marriage concerns. Healthcare providers reported that young people are often viewed as weak or treated differently at school and work.To address these challenges, Beyond Type 1 is partnering with grassroots organisations across high-need regions. These include HRIDAY in Delhi–NCR, Nityaasha Foundation in Pune, Gram Jyoti in Jharkhand, and SAMATVAM Trust in Bangalore—each group focusing on improving awareness, providing medical support and building stronger community networks for young people with T1D.“At Beyond Type 1 we believe real change begins with the people closest to the work on the ground,” said Seema Srivastava, Beyond Type 1’s director of social impact and global advocacy. “By partnering with grassroots organisations, we are helping families recognise early signs, reduce shame and misinformation, and access education, supplies and peer support.”Founded in 2015 by Nick Jonas and Juliet de Baubigny, Beyond Type 1 runs the world’s largest digital diabetes community, offering tools, education and support to help people with type 1 and type 2 diabetes live full and empowered lives.End of ArticleFollow Us On Social MediaVideos“India’s Diplomacy Has Spine”: Tharoor Praises India’s Assertive Foreign Policy On RussiaRahul–Priyanka Candid Chat Goes Viral As Camera Catches Fun Banter’We Have A Diplomatic Allergy’: Shashi Tharoor Warns India Still Lacks A National Security StrategySanchar Saathi App Row In LS: Cong Flags Privacy Fears, Scindia Says ‘Snooping Not Possible’Rupee Slides To Record Low Of 90 Per Dollar As Trade Uncertainty, Dollar Demand And Oil Costs Spike’Leader Is Bulldozing’: Kharge, Nadda Lock Horns Over TMC MP’s Speech In Rajya SabhaIndia’s Workforce Power Will Keep Growing, Jaishankar Says, As He Takes Down Anti H-1B NarrativesKTR Slams Congress, Says Rahul Gandhi Has No Vision And Is An Albatross Around Opposition’s NeckRussian Pop Star Backs Bharat Name Change And Reveals PM Modi Promised To Build A Temple In RussiaRELOS Gives India Seamless Access To Russian Bases As Moscow Boosts Military Ties Before Putin Visit123PhotostoriesTop 10 natural sources of magnesium to support women’s healthRupee slides?

(ANI) NEW DELHI: Former Delhi chief minister Arvind Kejriwal on Wednesday said the MCD bypoll results show that public trust is returning to AAP in just 10 months.The AAP, which was eyeing a third term in Delhi, lost to the BJP in the Assembly elections held in February.The MCD bypolls to 12 wards were being considered a litmus test for the BJP since they were the first big electoral battle for the saffron party after coming to power in Delhi.BJP won seven of the nine wards it held earlier, while AAP secured three and Congress and All India Forward Bloc one each. AAP lost Chandni Mahal and Chandni Chowk wards it held earlier, but won Mundka, Dakshinpuri and Naraina. Centre Signals Willingness to Discuss SIR, Asks Opposition Not to Set Timeline “In the MCD bypolls this time, the Aam Aadmi Party fielded its dedicated workers as candidates, and through its verdict, the people of Delhi have made it clear that public support in the city is steadily strengthening in favour of the AAP,” Kejriwal said in a post on X.In just 10 months, public trust is once again returning rapidly towards the Aam Aadmi Party, he said.”Delhi is very soon returning to positive politics and good governance,” he added.AAP leaders said the BJP had failed the litmus test and said it was losing ground in the national capital.End of ArticleFollow Us On Social MediaVideos“India’s Diplomacy Has Spine”: Tharoor Praises India’s Assertive Foreign Policy On RussiaRahul–Priyanka Candid Chat Goes Viral As Camera Catches Fun Banter’We Have A Diplomatic Allergy’: Shashi Tharoor Warns India Still Lacks A National Security StrategySanchar Saathi App Row In LS: Cong Flags Privacy Fears, Scindia Says ‘Snooping Not Possible’Rupee Slides To Record Low Of 90 Per Dollar As Trade Uncertainty, Dollar Demand And Oil Costs Spike’Leader Is Bulldozing’: Kharge, Nadda Lock Horns Over TMC MP’s Speech In Rajya SabhaIndia’s Workforce Power Will Keep Growing, Jaishankar Says, As He Takes Down Anti H-1B NarrativesKTR Slams Congress, Says Rahul Gandhi Has No Vision And Is An Albatross Around Opposition’s NeckRussian Pop Star Backs Bharat Name Change And Reveals PM Modi Promised To Build A Temple In RussiaRELOS Gives India Seamless Access To Russian Bases As Moscow Boosts Military Ties Before Putin Visit123PhotostoriesRupee slides?
