Actress Esha Gupta is yet to take a call on Akshay Kumar starrer “Rustom”. Reportedly “Rustom” loosely borrows from the infamous Nanavati murder case involving a naval officer and his lady love. “Even I have heard (about the casting). I don’t know. Nothing is confirmed,” Esha said in a media interaction here.Rupee tumbles 25 paise to close at

The rupee plunged by 25 paise to settle at over two month low of 66.57 against the US dollar today on month-end de-mand for the American currency from importers and banks on the back of higher greenback in over-seas markets. Besides, foreign capital outflows affected the rupee senti-ment, forex dealers said. The local currency had last ended at 66.82 on September 7, 2015.

The ongoing winter ses-sion of the Delhi Assem-bly was today extended till December 4 aimed at facilitating the smooth passage of several legis-lations including the Jan Lokpal Bill which the AAP cabinet recently cleared. AAP chief whip Jagdeep Singh moved a proposal in this regard which was passed by the House through voice vote, in the absence of all the three BJP legis-lators. The government had hinted towards the route of extension on No-vember 20 saying that it was looking to table the Lokpal Bill “next to next week”, clearly suggesting that the session would go beyond November 28, as earlier scheduled.

With the government’s image and reform agenda at stake, the ruling BJP appeared to be making extra efforts Thursday, the first day of the winter session of Parliament, to give space to the Oppo-sition for smooth func-tioning of the House. Prime Minister Naren-dra Modi sat through the discussion in Lok Sabha on the ‘Commitment to India’s Constitution’ on the 125th birth anniver-sary of B R Ambedkar, listening to the speeches attentively, actively inter-acting with cabinet col-leagues and not showing

any expression whenev-er the treasury bench-es scored points against the Opposition. But the session opener was not without acrimony despite the Prime Minister’s call to make Parliament a place for debate. Home Minister Rajnath Singh’s swipe at the critics of the government on the issue of intolerance and the inclusion of the word ‘secular’ in the preamble of the Constitution had the Opposition bench-es protesting. Modi did not look amused each time BJP MPs mocked the Opposition — rath-er he looked concerned that a furore could de-

with the sensational mur-der case. Peter, husband of Indrani Mukerjea, was arrested on November 19 and granted CBI custo-dy till today by a special court in Mumbai. Sheena (24) was Indrani’s daugh-

ter from an earlier mar-riage who was allegedly killed by her mother, her former husband Sanjeev Khanna and her former driver Shyamvar Rai in April 2012. Earlier, Pe-ter was evasive during

his interrogation by CBI team in New Delhi which grilled him for several hours after he was shifted from Mumbai in connec-tion with the case. The CBI has claimed financial transaction as the motive behind Sheena’s murder and that Peter during his interrogation disclosed investments of crores of rupees made by him and Indrani. The central agen-cy has also claimed that it has come across some important information and documents which are very crucial for the pur-pose of investigation with regard to the case.

The Maharashtra government had amended the 2005 Bombay Police Act, which was challenged in High Court by Indian Hotel and Restaurant Association. The Bombay High Court on April 12, 2006 had

quashed the government’s decision and declared the provision unconstitution-al, saying it was against Article 19(1)(g) (to prac-tice any profession, or to carry on any occupation, trade or business) of the Constitution. However, the state government had moved the apex court against the High Court’s order that same year.

rail the government’s business for the nearly month-long session. “We have to get our important bills at least this session. Otherwise, we will be in deep trouble. We have been told to maintain utmost restraint,” a se-nior BJP MP said. When Lok Sabha adjourned for lunch, Parliamentary Affairs Minister M Ven-kaiah Naidu was heard

ticking off a party MP in the lobby: “Why did you have to make unnec-essary comments? You should remember we are the ruling party.” Rajnath Singh, who initiated the two-day debate, began by paying rich tributes to Sardar Patel, Ambedkar and Jawaharlal Nehru — Singh said no one could deny Nehru’s role in na-tion building — but an-

tagonised the Opposition with his remarks on the raging debate over acts of intolerance. Secular-ism, he said, is the most misused word now. “Mis-use of the word secular should be stopped imme-diately. Political misuse of any expression given in the Constitution should not be there. We are fac-ing problems in ensuring

social harmony because of the misuse of these ex-pressions,” he said. Taking a swipe at the Congress, Singh said Ambedkar did not want the preamble to be amended by anyone, but in 1976, through the 42nd amendment, two words — secular and socialist — were added during Congress rule. He said Ambedkar did not

believe it was necessary to include those words as they were “values core to the Indian ethos”. This led to loud protests from Op-position MPs. Congress leader Mallikarjun Kharge argued that Ambedkar was in favour of adding the words to the preamble but could not do so because “the atmosphere was not right then”.

eral teams were working to catch driver Pradip Shukla, who is from Uttar Pradesh and had joined the agency recently. Shukla had left the bank’s Vikaspuri office along with armed guard Vijay Patel around 3.30pm. When they reached Cap-tain Gaur Marg near Govindpuri around 5pm, Patel asked the driver to stop as he wanted to go to the washroom. As he got down, Shukla told him that he would keep driv-ing and return because parking the vehicle there might cause a traffic jam. “Patel said the van never

came back and he called the bank after waiting 10-15 minutes,” an officer said. Police were scanning CCTV footage to check if Shukla got into another vehicle after abandoning the van in Okhla. They suspect the driver alone could not have pulled off such a crime. Or was he waylaid by robbers when the guard left him alone? Axis Bank assured that the cash was “fully insured” and “neither the bank nor the customer would get affected”. It said the van didn’t belong to the bank and the driver was not its employee.

QUOTE OF THE

DAYTerror: Sloganeering at Kuala Lumpur won’t be enough

Secret armies are threatening modern civilisa-tion. Like the mysterious 11th-century “hash-shashins” of Hassan-i Sabbah, who spread terror among Seljuk Turks and Sunnis, these sneaking legions are attempting to destroy human habita-tions like the bustling Mumbai, enchanting Paris and distressed Bamako. Their terror has com-pelled France to employ 10,000 troops to protect Paris. Brussels, headquarters of Nato, is “locked down”. Yet the world’s top leaders, who had an unprecedented opportunity to discuss this prob-lem twice this month — at Antalya, Turkey, and Kuala Lumpur — could think of only repeat-ing hoary slogans like “stiffening our resolve”, “choking funds for terrorism” or “joint opera-tions in a common battlefield”. Unfortunately, all these slogans are ineffective. The US Treasury list of sanctions against terrorist financiers and designated terrorists, which is the most author-itative compilation, has grown from 127 pages in October 2003 to 994 pages on November 19, 2015, each page containing nearly 42 names. Yet, there is no visible reduction in terrorism. It is true that Russia and France are bombing Islamic State (IS) targets together. But that was because Russia lost its Metrojet on October 31 and Par-is was humiliated on November 13. It was only on September 27 that French President Francois Hollande had criticised Russia, without naming it, at the UN General Assembly, while asking for the removal of Bashar al-Assad. History tells us that joint operations are difficult to execute even if top leaders have a personal understanding. For-mer Newsweek editor Jon Meacham’s bestseller, Franklin and Winston: An Intimate Portrait of an Epic Friendship, gives us a vivid account of the difficulties faced by Britain and the US during World War II, although Winston Churchill and Franklin D. Roosevelt were best friends. In the 1980s, we were worried about the dangers to our prime minister’s security from remote-controlled bombs fitted on toy planes. During that era, In-dira Gandhi and Margaret Thatcher had excellent personal relations. It was Thatcher’s idea that both intelligence services should frequently ex-change information on overseas Sikh militancy. Still, we faced stubborn refusal from the UK on technology to meet these threats. We had to pro-cure a prototype from another country with great difficulty to prepare counter-measures.

“They (BJP and Akalis) are desperate to stop the Punjab Congress’ reorganisation, which is imminent. Why else would they selectively target me and my family when the government claims it has the details of 1,200 foreign bank accounts?”

IDBI Bank raises Rs 2,310 crore via green bonds to fund energy projects

Call drop situation in Delhi has improved but tele-com operators are still beyond the quality bench-mark set for mobile telephony services, Telecom Minister Ravi Shankar Prasad said on Wednesday. “Call drops situation has improved between Ju-ly-October period. I am happy with the improve-ment but telecom operators still need to work to make their network better,” Prasad told reporters in New Delhi. The minister shared the data based on a survey by Term cell, the vigilance and resource monitoring arm of the Department of Telecom. The data showed that call drop situation on the mobile network has improved but the operators are still beyond the quality parameters set for call drops. As per benchmark, not more than 2 percent of the calls made on a telecom operator’s network should fail or disconnect automatically due to network-re-

IDBI Bank on Thursday said it has raised $350 million (about Rs 2,310 crore) from green bonds to fund clean energy projects. The issue was made under the $5 billion (Rs 33,175 crore) medium term note (MTN) programme listed on Singapore Stock Exchange, IDBI Bank said in a statement. With this, IDBI has become the first state-owned com-mercial bank to raise $350 million by selling green bonds. The proceeds will be used for refinancing of clean energy projects assisted by the bank which include wind energy, solar energy etc., it said. The funds raised through the issue will also be used for financing of the new projects including sustainable transport, it added. IDBI Bank launched a “$350 million five-year Reg S green bond issue on No-vember 23” and the issue was oversubscribed by

The FAME-India scheme offering incentives on hybrid and electric vehicles will help save Rs 60,000 crore annually on the country’s oil import bill by 2020, the government said on Thursday. “The successful rollout of the FAME-India scheme will result in an annual savings worth Rs 60,000 crore on India’s oil import bill by 2020,” Addition-al Secretary in the Heavy Industries Ministry Am-buj Sharma. “We will spend about Rs 800 crore in the first two years. Overall, Rs 14,000 crore are needed to make the scheme succeed. However, we will save fuel worth Rs 60,000 crore through this spend,” Union Heavy Industries Minister Anant Geete told reporters on the sidelines of a rally of hy-brid and electric vehicles. India’s crude oil import bill is likely to drop by 35 per cent to $73 billion this fiscal on lower global energy prices and weak demand. India had imported 189.43 million tonnes of crude oil in 2014-15 for Rs 6.87 lakh crore.

FC Goa could only man-age a 1-1 draw against NorthEast United FC in their Indian Super League (ISL) tie in Margao on Wednesday. While Goa head coach Zico might not be pleased, since he was hoping his side would bounce back from their 0-4 away loss to Atletico de Kolkata, NorthEast United head coach Ce-sar Farias would be even

more disappointed even though he would have taken the draw before kickoff. Farias agreed that his team would be happy with a single point as it would help their qualifi-cation chances. Goa went for the jugular with four forwards although the eventless first half yield-ed little. The second half started as a more open affair but changed in the 55th minute. A corner from Simao Sabrosa was

headed into the goal by substitute Victor Mendy. NorthEast had taken the lead and Farias’ tactics were paying dividends. NorthEast fell back to soak in the pressure as the home team changed tactics. It was the latter move which rewarded Zico as a long ball into the box was nodded down by Moura which allowed Reinaldo a clean shot at goal to equalise in the 80th minute.

The Little Master added: “Virat needs to shorten his stance because then he can use the crease bet-ter. He will be in a better position to play or leave a

ball.” Kohli has been bat-ting with this feet-wide-apart stance for quite some time and in his last 10 Test innings, Kohli has only one century (103 versus Sri Lanka in Galle in August 2015) and a 50 (78 vs Lanka in Colom-bo) to show. India’s No. 1 batsman certainly wants a better report card.

The plotters of the Bha-ruch double murder of BJP leaders Sirish Bengali and Pragnesh Mistry had allegedly couriered two pistols and live ammuni-tion from Mumbaibya bus headed to Ahmedabad. “We tracked down the bus which carried the bag containing the firearms.

While music takes center stage in the lives of these indie musicians from Gu-jarat, many of them are working professionals by the day and musicians by the evening. From being a photographer, designer, writer, music teacher to working in corporate set ups, these music makers dabble between the pas-sion and profession with ease and elan.But every moment of their daily rou-tine heads to the evenings, when they get to do what they absolutely adore -make music. When the heart follows its passion, the mind finds its way to pursue it.”No matter how tired I am or how late I come back from work, I always find time to pick up my guitar and play ,” says Nishad Shah, who was working in an MNC and now runs a music school in Vadodara. He adds, “I can’t do without music, but also have to balance it out with work since it gives a stronger monetary support.” Music for others

like John Bovas comes in different forms, even it means a late night sitting in a recording studio after a long day’s work. John, who teaches guitar to children for free, teaches choir music, does studio recordings, writes jingles besides working in a firm in Ahmedabad.Amid his busy schedule, he still finds inspiration in music. “Music runs in the family as my father and brother have been musicians, they inspire me a lot.” It is no secret that making money through music is not the easiest thing. To support themselves, something ad-ditional needs to be done, say the indie rockers. “As a musician, it is still dif-ficult to depend solely on music to make money,” says Sahil Abhichandani, part of the Ahmedabad Jazz and Blues Festival.He adds, “You have to do routine things too. Sus-taining through music is difficult because it’s not a regular source of income, as far as Ahmedabad is concerned.

Some leaders of Sardar Patel Group, which is part of the Patel quota ag-itation movement, today met Anandiben Patel and extended support to the ruling BJP even as SPG chief Lalji Patel claimed that those who met the Gu-jarat Chief Minister were not members of his outfit. Accusing Lalji Patel of being a “Congress agent” and “misguiding” the Pa-tel community, around 20 leaders of SPG today met the CM in Gandhinagar and extended support to the saffron party ahead of the rural and semi-ur-ban local bodies polls scheduled to take place on the coming Sunday. SPG works closely with Hardik Patel-led Patidar Anamat Andolan Samiti (PAAS) to get reservation for Patel community un-der OBC quota.

oratory, Gandhinagar, came a day before the hearing on Hardik’s bail application by a sessions court in Ahmedabad. In the purported phone conversations, Hardik and his aides alleged-ly talk about “blocking highways ahead of the

Rajkot ODI between In-dia and South Africa” and of other Patidars planning to “burn Guja-rat”. The FIR also men-tions Hardik’s speeches, where he has reportedly spoke about “becoming Bhagat Singh and bomb-ing the Assembly”.

100% enrolment as a part of Shala Pravesh Utsav which is being organized in the state continuously for over a decade. Poo-nam has been moving from one place to anoth-er with her parents who sell brooms. Poonam has never got a chance to en-rol herself into a school. “I want to study but I can’t,” she said. Inter-estingly, the data reveals that of the 14.93 lakh children and youths in this age group in the state who have not attended schools, there were over

53% females. Nationally, female percentage in the age group is 52%. Offi-cials said that of the 14.93 lakh who have never at-tended school there were 8.82 lakh students who were in the age group of 6-10 years. Gujarat’s much tom tommed girl child enrolment drive, nick-named as Kanya Kelavni, which began in 2004 as mahotsav or festival, leaves little for the state government to boast about. The govern-ment for the past 11 years has been claiming that

all children of six years of age are enrolled into schools. However, the fig-ures reveal that school en-rolment drive is not 100% successful. Gaurang Jani, professor, school of so-ciology, Gujarat Univer-sity, has termed the claims of 100% enrolment false. There are several migrant and tribal children and adivasi students who migrate to other parts of the state for livelihood with their families Even the Right to Education 2009 lays emphasis on this migrant population “While the panchayat or the principal certifies that 100% students are enrolled, the officer who visits the village doesn’t verify this.Several Tha-kore and Dalit children are not enrolled and the principal certifies them as enrolled,” said Jani.

take place on November 29. Since the Patel quota agitation spearhead Har-dik Patel is behind bars on sedition charges, Lalji Patel has been leading the movement, vehement-ly urging his communi-ty members not to give votes to BJP. However, around 20 SPG leaders from the Patel-dominat-ed Kheda district today met Anandiben Patel in Gandhinagar and extend-ed their support to BJP, which is being viewed as a major blow to Pa-tel community’s “an-ti-BJP movement” After the meeting, convener of Kheda SPG Tejas Pa-tel lambasted Lalji Patel

and accused him of sup-porting Congress. “SPG is a non-political entity, which works for the Pa-tel community. As per our Constitution, one cannot ask people to vote in favour of or against a particular political party. But, Lalji Patel has now become an agent of Con-gress and misguiding our community,” he alleged. “Lalji Patel is fooling Patels by asking them to vote for Congress. He is moving away from our Constitution. Thus, peo-ple like us have decided to meet the CM to tell her that Patel community will not be misguided by such attempts,” Tejas added.

Bharuch murders: Weapons were sent from Mumbai by bus

Chikna’s brother Abid Chikna and Zoeb Ansari had gone to Mumbai to procure the arms. “They stayed at Abid’s house in Mahim and went to a near by restaurant the next day While they we re at a table, a man strolled in, looked at them and put a

bag with the arms and am munition down without saying a word,” said a se-nior police official. Police sources said the bag was then couriered by bus to Bha ruch. Zoeb received the parcel at Bharuch. “As one of the pistols in the bag jammed during their

shooting practice, the ac-cused arranged two other pistols from Abdul Samad Malbari. We arrested Mal-bari on a transfer warrant from Lajpore Jail as he was already booked in another weapons case on November 10,” said a po-lice official. Bengali and

Pragnesh Mistry were shot dead, allegedly by Zoeb and Haider Shaikh, at the former’s press in Panch Batti area of Bharuch on November 2. Gujarat ATS and Bharuch Police have till now arrested nine ac-cused in the case and are hunting for Javed Chi-kna, who is supposedly based in South Africa and Abid Chikna, a UK pass-port holder. ATS sources claimed Bengali was killed as part of larger conspira-cy to eliminate three other leaders affiliated to saffron organizations, as the plot-ters thought minorities in Bharuch were being sub-jected to atrocities.
