The collapse followed heavy rain and occurred during the Akshaya Tritiya festival, with crowds gathering from 4 AM. Officials said the wall gave way when people leaned on it near a ticket counter. Home Minister V Anita noted the toll could have been higher if many hadn't stepped back after noticing the wall weakening. The structure had been built recently near the temple's special entrance staircase.The Supreme Court, citing the right to digital access as part of life and liberty, ordered changes to digital KYC norms to aid people with vision impairment and acid attack survivors.

The location was symbolic, being a center of the auto industry, where Trump emphasized jobs, the economy, and America-first policies during his address.That's all for today. This was the Catchup on 3 Things by The Indian Express.
Cape Breton's Information Morning from CBC Radio Nova Scotia (Highlights)
Former US President Donald Trump is set to return to the White House. We speak with a political watcher in Pennsylvania about the latest, and where America goes from here.
Title: A deep dive into Donald Trump's Tariff Policies and its Effect on the Global EconomyOctober 21, 2024, marked a crucial day in the American legal and economic landscape as the Supreme Court heard cases on water pollution and immigration law. Amid this political churn, there was a significant focus on economic structures -- spearheaded by an analysis of the tariff policies introduced by Former US President Donald Trump, provided by renowned economic analyst Jack Smith. Donald Trump's reign as President was marked by a plethora of upheavals, especially in the economic paradigm. Many remember Trump's term for the paradigm shift in America's approach towards international trade and relations. His tariff policies, in particular, have left an indisputable mark on the global financial system.Economist Jack Smith took this opportunity to provide an in-depth review of Trump's tariff policies, dissecting the pros and cons of these measures in light of recent developments in the international market. Smith's analysis comes at a crucial time when the world is trying to better understand the long-term impact of these tariff policies on international trade and the United States' global standing.Smith explains how Trump administration justified the tariff policies as a necessary step towards the protection of America's domestic industries. These policies aimed at leveling the playing field and reducing the trade deficit, which Trump considered as a loss to the US economy. However, the practical implications of these tariff policies, according to Smith, have shown a mixed picture. Trump's tariffs did give domestic industries a temporary protective edge, but they also led to reprisals from other trading nations, sparking a series of trade wars, most notably with China.Smith also made it a point to highlight the impact on consumers and businesses. While these tariffs were designed to protect American industries, the cost was often borne by American businesses that had to pay higher prices for imported goods, as well as consumers who also faced increased prices.The information platter served by Smith has raised vital questions about the merits and demerits of protectionist policies, their sustainability, and their impact on economic relations with other nations. As we move forward, assessing the implications of Trump's tariff policies could offer invaluable lessons for future policymakers when it comes to juggling protection of domestic industries and maintaining healthy international relations.In conclusion, the day of October 21, 2024 has not just been about legal decisions, but it has also served as a stepping stone for more comprehensive dialogues on the global economic canvas. Jack Smith's analysis of Donald Trump's tariff policies offer an essential perspective on how such measures, while aimed at protecting local industries, may have a profound effect on international relations and economic stability.
Former US President Donald Trump said his policies would inspire growth despite adding to the debt as he sought to assuage business leaders who worry his economic plans will fuel inflation. Trump defended his proposals to dramatically increase tariffs on foreign goods, saying the proposals were for the “protection of the companies that we have here and the new companies that will move in.” He spoke in a special conversation from the Economic Club of Chicago with Bloomberg News Editor-in-Chief John Micklethwait.See omnystudio.com/listener for privacy information.

US Secret Service director Kimberly Cheatle has resigned after the agency came under harsh scrutiny for its failure to stop a would-be assassin from wounding former President Donald Trump during a campaign rally. The agency did not immediately respond to a request for comment. The Secret Service, which is responsible for the protection of current and former US presidents, faces a crisis after a gunman was able to fire on Trump from a roof overlooking the outdoor rally in Butler, Pennsylvania on July 13. “I take full responsibility for the security lapse,” Cheatle said in an email to staff on Tuesday, the Associated Press reported. A screengrab shows Republican presidential candidate former President Donald Trump being rushed offstage after the shooting. Photo / Getty Images “In light of recent events, it is with a heavy heart that I have made the difficult decision to step down as your director.” Cheatle faced bipartisan condemnation when she appeared before the House of Representatives Oversight Committee on Monday, declining to answer questions from frustrated lawmakers about the security plan for the rally and how law enforcement responded to the suspicious behaviour of the gunman. Several Republican and Democratic lawmakers called on her to resign. Trump, the Republican presidential candidate, was grazed in the right ear and a rally attendee was killed in the gunfire. Law enforcement react after shots were fired at the rally of Republican presidential candidate Donald Trump. Photo / Getty The gunman, identified as a 20-year-old Thomas Crooks, was shot and killed by a Secret Service sniper. Cheatle, who has led the agency since 2022, told lawmakers she took responsibility for the shooting and called it the largest failure by the Secret Service since then-President Ronald Reagan was shot in 1981. The Secret Service faces investigations from multiple congressional committees and the internal watchdog of the US Department of Homeland Security, its parent organisation, over its performance. US President Joe Biden, who has ended his re-election campaign, has also called for an independent review. Much of the criticism has focused on the failure to secure the roof of an industrial building where the gunman was perched about 140 metres from the stage where Trump was speaking. The rooftop was declared outside the Secret Service security perimeter for the event, a decision criticised by former agents and politicians. Cheatle held a top security role at PepsiCo when Biden named her Secret Service director in 2022. She previously served 27 years in the agency. Former US President Donald Trump was hit in his right ear in a shooting at his rally in the US state of Pennsylvania. Infographic / Getty Images She took over following a series of scandals involving the Secret Service that scarred the reputation of an elite and insular agency. Ten Secret Service agents lost their jobs after revelations they brought women, some of them prostitutes, back to their hotel rooms ahead of a trip to Colombia by then-President Barack Obama in 2012. The agency also faced allegations that it erased text messages from about the time of the January 6, 2021 riots on the US Capitol. Those messages were later sought by a congressional panel probing the riot. The US House of Representatives said on Tuesday it was forming a bipartisan task force to investigate the shooting of Trump. The panel, comprised of seven Republicans and six Democrats, will make recommendations for reforms to relevant government agencies and will have subpoena authority, according to a statement from Republican House Speaker Mike Johnson and Democratic leader Hakeem Jeffries. At a hearing on Monday, the House Oversight Committee's Republican chairman James Comer and top Democrat Jamie Raskin – normally bitterly divided on most issues – each called on Cheatle to resign. “The security failures that allowed an assassination attempt on Donald Trump's life are shocking,” Johnson said in a statement, adding the task force would move quickly to “make certain such failures never happen again”. He said House lawmakers will vote on a resolution this week to establish the force and its members.See omnystudio.com/listener for privacy information.

s is the Catch Up on 3 Things for the Indian Express and I'm Flora Swain.It's the 15th of July and here are today's headlines.The Supreme Court has dismissed a plea seeking review of its January 3 verdict by which it refused to transfer the probe into allegations of stock price manipulation by the Adani Group to a special investigation team or the CBI.

Information Minister Attaullah Tarar made the announcement on Monday, stating that the federal government believes there is substantial evidence to justify the ban. Responding to the ban, the PTI took to social media platform X and urged the government to ‘not shake the foundations of Pakistan'. It also castigated Pakistan's Chief of Army Staff General Asim Munir and his ‘puppet government'.Former US President Donald Trump, who narrowly escaped an assassination attempt, recounted the moment when he was shot at, attributing his survival to his decision to glance at a screen displaying a chart during his public rally in Pennsylvania. Trump told the New York Post on his way to the Republican Party convention in Milwaukee, quote, "I'm not supposed to be here, I'm supposed to be dead,” He told the Washington Examiner on Sunday, quote, "That reality is just setting in. I rarely look away from the crowd. Had I not done that at that moment, well, we would not be talking today, would we?"This was the Catch-Up on the 3 Things by The Indian Express.

Former US President Donald Trump was rushed off the stage at a rally in Pennsylvania after the sound of gunfire disrupted the event. The Secret Service stepped in and whisked Trump into a car - with blood clearly visible on his face. US correspondent Katherine Firkin says Trump is fine and being checked at a local medical facility. "Interesting though - as his security tried to drag him off the stage, he seemed to protest for a moment and instead took a second to pump his fist victoriously to the sky. So this is already being turned around as a victory." LISTEN ABOVESee omnystudio.com/listener for privacy information.

Former US President Donald Trump, a notable figure still on many Republican voters' radar for the 2024 Presidential nomination, is set to launch an appeal that may macerate the threat of spending much of next year embroiled in judicial proceedings. At stake are allegations of attempting to reverse the results of the 2020 general election – a most serious accusation as it touches on the fabric of our democracy itself. In launching this appeal, it has been speculated by those versed in the field of law that Trump's potential triumph in the courtroom isn't necessarily hinged on prevailing via the strengths of his justifications. Rather, triumph could come from the ability to adroitly navigate the labyrinthine American judicial system – ultimately forestalling legal processes, thereby preserving his freedom to go head-to-head in the political sphere against President Joe Biden. Thursday was a day of intense activity for Trump's legal team as they communicated their intent to appeal a decision by the federal judge tasked with presiding over the forthcoming trial in Washington D.C. At the heart of their appeal is the rejection of Trump's assertion of immunity from prosecution concerning his official activities during his term as president. This appeal could be decidedly pivotal; it may well represent Trump's final play prior to the commencement of his trial, currently slated to start in March. Advocates for Trump have filed motions to place a temporary dam on all judicial activities under the purview of U.S. District Judge Tanya Chutkan, the presiding judge in the Washington case.See omnystudio.com/listener for privacy information.
