Hey @drmpune Will a refund be issued if we file for TDR for passengers to Solapur from Pune today on 22225? Even if the train starts in the next 30 mins, it will be within the three hour delay limit. Even if it starts now, it won't reach before 1 am and will be late for elders.

Explainer: A threat by Donald Trump, who has been elected as the next U.S. president, to impose 60% tariffs on U.S. imports of Chinese goods poses major growth risks for the world's second-largest economy.

EXPLAINED: Why did the iconic #Tupperware go bankrupt...

It relied on the outdated sales distribution channel of direct selling amid growing competition which offered cheaper food storage containers online and in stores.

For 12 years, the US has waged a tariff war against a rising tide of Chinese solar imports. And for 12 years, Chinese manufacturers have found ways to sidestep the tariffs.

- 50% #UAPA investigations pending for >3 years
- 2nd highest share, compared with 122 crime heads
- Stalled investigations, trial delays are par for the course, but add the that fact, 67% of those arrested under UAPA do not get bail, it becomes draconian

In the six years between 2017 and 2022, more than 35% of all the #arson cases across India in which #SCs were victims occurred in #Bihar. Data show increasingly fewer crimes against #Dalits are investigated in the state and only a small number of them end up in #courts.

Yesterday’s story showed Indian women professionals are working long hours at office

Today’s story shows there is no respite at home either

While families have become more accepting of women working over time, they still do not share women’s workload at home

#SriLanka heads to polls in next week. The country which gave the world its first woman prime minister, has only a handful of women parliamentarians. And no contender for the Presidential poll is a woman.

The Centre has withheld funds from 5 #opposition-ruled States that are leading in #SamagraShikshaAbhiyan objectives. In today's @the_hindu, we compare 22 major States on 20 SSA objectives. Data shows that withholding has more to do with #PMShri than SSA's outcomes

African countries owed China around $80 billion at the end of 2022 with Angola accounting for the highest share of it. At the #FOCAC2024 debt structuring will likely be one of the talking points...
