Former Home and Finance Minister, P Chidambaram was hounded and chased out of the Kolkata High Court by his own party men. He was representing the West Bengal Government in its case against Adhir Ranjan Choudhury. Is this a quid pro quo for an RS seat, Sree Iyer wonders... #Chidambaram #Mamata #TMC #AircelMaxisScam

When will the CBI do custodial interrogation of the key players like Chidambaram, K P Krishnan, Ajay Shah, C B Bhave & Ravi Narain?

A version of this essay has been published by swarajayamag.com at https://swarajyamag.com/culture/the-argument-about-a-british-hymn-at-beating-the-retreat-well-heres-an-alternativeI personally have had no idea what ‘Beating the Retreat’ is all about, so I was startled when a full-scale war of words erupted because the Government of India apparently decided to replace a British-era song called ‘Abide with me’ with a Lata Mangeshkar song named ‘Ae mere watan ke logon’ as part of the ceremony.Thanks for reading Shadow Warrior! Subscribe for free to receive new posts and support my work.Upon reading the now-famous ‘Abide with me’, which I had never heard of, and looking it up on the Internet, I found out it is a Christian hymn, written by some unknown British padre in the 1850s. Insofar as its literary quality goes, it is not bad, and appears to be a plea for having the Christian God stand with the beseecher as he goes through his times of trouble. It is clearly directed to the Christian God because it includes verses about the cross. It is not entirely clear why removing this uni-denominational prayer is a blow to tradition, such as it is. That too a colonial tradition imposed on a prone India in the 1900s. Thank you for reading Shadow Warrior. This post is public so feel free to share it.On the other hand, I have read that Nehru himself cried when listening to ‘Ae mere watan ke logon’ in the aftermath of the 1962 debacle. I have my doubts about that song’s appeal because of its over-reliance on words of Farsi and Arabic origin, which sound alien to my southern ears. When I first heard it, I confused the word ‘watan’ (Arabic for country) with ‘vadan(am)’ (Sanskrit for face), but of course it didn’t make any sense. Interestingly, I found out on twitter that ‘Abide with me’ was Gandhi’s favorite hymn! This was on the authority of Shashi Tharoor, Congress MP, on January 26th. He didn’t elaborate as to how it is known that it was Gandhi’s favorite hymn, which I had been earlier led to believe was ‘Vaishnava Janato’.  Going one step further, another Congress MP, P Chidambaram, let on that it was also Subhas Bose’s favorite hymn. How did he know that? Why, Bose’s grand-nephew Sugata Bose told him. Sugata Bose is a professor at Harvard University; it is probably not necessary to remind people, as per Wikipedia, that “Harvard College was founded in 1636 as a Puritan/Congregationalist institution and trained ministers for many years.”I guess that would have been clinching evidence for the importance of ‘Abide with me’, except for a small detail: Sugata was born in 1956, 11 years after Netaji disappeared in 1945. So how on earth did he witness the “tears flowing down Netaji’s cheeks”? So it is just a second-hand tale of dubious authenticity?Remarkable that this obscure prayer was the favorite of not only Gandhi, but also Netaji! And I don’t know about you, but all these tears from the stalwarts of the freedom movement are beginning to make me feel a little queasy.In other words, all this sounds like a red herring, if not proper fake news manufactured on the spot. The real issue is that the Congress is upset that Narendra Modi has recognized the enduring affection that average Indians have for Bose. Congress’ diligent attempts to obscure Bose’s contribution, along with that of other stalwarts like Patel, worked for a long time, but as they say, you can fool all the people some of the time, but not all of the time. Personally, I used to hero-worship Bose, and even attempted to read the monumental Brothers Against the Raj, but later I found that he had certain blind spots about leftism for example, and he had rather absurd ideas about abandoning Indian scripts for Roman, so I now have a more nuanced view. But he clearly deserves, as the head of the Indian National Army, the signal honor of a commanding statue at the India Gate. And in case the nation is in the market for a purely non-sectarian hymn that deserves to be accepted as a national prayer, I have one in mind. It is the Daiva-dasakam or Ten Couplets to the Almighty by Sri Narayana Guru. Here’s my translation from the Malayalam original:O Almighty, watch over us Without abandon Thou art our Captain In the mighty ship of Life On the sea of Existence. Counting one by one And when all Essences are counted The seeing Eye alone is left Let that inner Self thus rest in Thee. Thou alone art our Lord Thou Who without fail Bless us with food and clothes and everything else. As the ocean holds deeps, waves, and storms, Let us hold within ourselves the Manifest World, Thy Glory and Thou. Thou art the Act of Creation, the Creator And the innumerable creatures Thou hast created. O Almighty, Thou art also the very material of Creation. Thou art the Material World, Its Creator, and its Enjoyer too, And the Noble One that grants Salvation by lifting Illusion. Thou art Truth, Knowledge and Bliss, The Present, the Past and the Future too are None else. Verily art Thou the Spoken Word, too. Thy Self, in Glory ensconced Both inside and outside us We forever worship O Almighty, Thy Will be done. Victory to Thee, Grand One, Refuge of the weak. Victory to Thee, Abode of Joy, Ocean of Mercy, Hail. Into that profound sea of Thy Glory Let us all plunge, And flourish forever Flourish in Happiness Flourish. This is a public episode.

Sachin Pilot skipped the second Congress Legislature Party (CLP) meeting, even as the Congress decided to remove him from the posts of the Deputy Chief Minister of Rajasthan and the Rajasthan Congress chief.At least 102 Congress MLAs from the state demanded action against Pilot. The CLP also passed a resolution supporting Chief Minister Ashok Gehlot, and recommended "strong disciplinary action against any Congress MLA or office-bearer who weakens the party."As the internal conflict within Congress shows no signs of ebbing, MLAs are being shifted to resorts. While Gehlot's supporters were shifted to Fairmont Hotel in Jaipur, the Pilot camp released a video showing around 15 MLAs sitting together at an undisclosed location.It is said that top Congress leaders including Priyanka Gandhi, P Chidambaram and Rahul Gandhi all have been trying to get in touch with Pilot, but the crisis is stuck at stalemate.

Finally. Finally! The Modi government has acknowledged the futility of trying to pump prime India’s GDP by ever-escalating government expenditure, which increased by an astonishing double-digit CAGR (compounded annual growth rate) over six years of impotent growth. Remember, Indian governments drive only 10 percent of our economy – worse, they do so inefficiently and bluntly. Finally, the Modi government has acknowledged that the budget presented on 5 July 2019 was a failed, vapid policy document. Finally, it has realised that India’s private enterprise is the most potent engine of economic growth, accounting for over 90 percent of GDP. And finally, after six excruciating years, it has shed its “I am the government and I can fix everything” stance and adopted the mantra of “I will free your animal spirits by empowering, trusting and enriching you.” Finally! The fiscal giveaway is an awe-inspiring 0.6 percent+ of GDP. Absolutely, it’s a generous Rs 1.45 lakh crore of additional cash created on corporate balance sheets. Optically, it’s a humongous 10 percentage points’ hack of the corporate tax rate by one swing of the axe (reminiscent of P Chidambaram’s audacious move in the “dream budget” of 1997/98 – ouch!). Yes, I am delighted. But no, I am not ecstatic. Why? Listen to the podcast for the reasons.

In this week’s episode, host Abhinandan Sekhri is joined by Madhu Trehan, Raman Kirpal, the political editor of The Caravan magazine Hartosh Singh Bal, and a Newslaundry subscriber of Kashmiri origin.The podcast kicks off with the Newslaundry subscriber expressing her sentiments on the abrogation of Article 370 and the heavy deployment of troops in the region. She says, "For us, it is a progression of the loss in the faith in the Indian Constitution." The panel talks about why Ladakh and Jammu will soon ask the government to ban people from other states from buying land in the region, and the chances of a plebiscite. Hartosh notes the impact of the Modi-Shah-Doval trinity on the minds of the Indian people.The panel goes on to discuss how members of the Congress who didn’t even want to share space with P Chidambaram earlier are now supporting him inside and outside court. Raman wonders if political influence caused the CBI to dramatise the arrest and questions the credibility of Indrani Mukerjea's statement. Abhinandan tries to understand the reason behind primetime reporters spitting venom against the former finance minister.The deficient media coverage this week on recent protests over the Ravidas Temple demolition urges the panel to thrash out why this wasn’t given space on primetime news. The panel also discusses this movement’s rise in Punjab. Hartosh says, “The thing angering them the most was that green zone exceptions have been made for hundreds of thousands of reasons and it couldn’t be made for this?”The group also discusses fake news and why people don’t mind spreading it, before moving on to remember legendary music composer Mohammed Zahur Khayyam Hashmi.For this and more, listen up!

This week on Reporters Without Orders, Snigdha Sharma wears the host's hat and sits down with Newslaundry Hindi correspondent Basant Kumar, desk writer Gaurav Sarkar and Meghnad S.The discussion kicks off with everyone on the panel sharing the most bizarre news they've read this week including the sequence of events involving P Chidambaram. Talking about under-reported stories, Gaurav mentions a BJP member allegedly raping a minor at gunpoint in Mumbai while Basant expresses concern over journalists' ignorance regarding several job cuts across the country. Basant says, "This is a slap on the face of journalists because if we were reporting about this, NITMA wouldn't have had to put out an advertisement."Talking about the state's attempt to link people's social media accounts to their Aadhaar cards, Meghnad thinks an Aadhaar card is not needed to find out about those spreading fake news. Snigdha feels the government is trying to make citizens choose between privacy and curbing fake news.The group then discusses the hashtag #ArrestShehlaRashid trending on Twitter and the relevance of Donald Trump's attempt to mediate between India and Pakistan. Gaurav updates listeners on the Priya Ramani versus MJ Akbar case, and wraps up the conversation with an interesting yet surprising snippet from the Unnao case hearing which went unreported.For all this and more, listen up!

Delhi High Court judge Sunil Gaur has refused to grant anticipatory bail to former Finance Minister #PChidambaram in the #INXMediacase. After this P Chidambaram could be arrested.

Fading hopes of a government stimulus, rupee movement against the US dollar, and global cues are likely to dominate investor sentiment today. Most investors were expecting the government to increase spending to shore up economic growth, however, comments by some government officials have dashed hopes of a big-bang stimulus. Yesterday, Chief Economic Advisor Krishnamurthy Subramanian said one could not expect the government to use taxpayers’ money to intervene every time some sectors go through “sunsets”. Commerce and Industry Minister Piyush Goyal said while fiscal stimulus was a good idea, the government would be criticised for leaving fiscal prudence.  NITI Aayog Vice-Chairman Rajiv Kumar has described the current stress in the financial sector as “unprecedented”, saying that it made a case for "extraordinary steps" to deal with the crisis. That apart, market participants will also track oil price movement, foreign fund flow, and stock-specific action for market direction. Meanwhile, the International Monetary Fund (IMF) has raised doubts about India's tax revenue estimates and GDP growth target and has asked India to explain how it is confident of meeting its revenue estimates for the year, given the current state of economic growth and historical buoyancy. In the currency market, the rupee on Thursday plunged to its lowest level in 2019, closing at 71.81 against the dollar, 26 paise below its previous close. The benchmark S&P BSE Sensex dropped nearly 600 points to end at 36,473, while the Nifty ended at 10,741, down 177 points. And, now let's take a look at stocks that are likely to trade actively in today's session.  Shares of Future Group companies may hog the limelight today after the company said American e-commerce giant Amazon.com is acquiring a 49 per cent stake in a group entity — Future Coupons Ltd. That apart, YES Bank may also be in focus today as news reports suggest it is looking for $1.9 bn of equity infusion.  And, now let's take a look at the global markets.  US equities ended little changed on Thursday. The Dow Jones rose 0.19 per cent, the S&P 500 0.05 per cent, and the Nasdaq Composite dropped 0.36 per cent. Stocks in Asia opened mixed on Friday. Shares in Japan and Australia were flat, while equities in South Korea dipped. At 07:52 am, Nifty futures on the Singapore Exchange (SGX) were trading 6 points or 0.06 per cent lower at 10,713, indicating a flat start for the Indian market today.  And, before we wrap up, here's a quick look at the top headlines for the day -  >> CBI court sends P Chidambaram to custody till August 26 in INX media case >> Sebi's move to ease norms for FPIs likely to attract West Asian banks;  >> Falling share prices may hit govt's PSU divestment plan; and >> HSBC lays off 150 employees from India back offices for 'realignment'.

Last night, the officials from the Central Bureau of Investigation (CBI) climbed trees, scaled boundary walls, got inside the house of former finance minister P Chidambaram and arrested him. After the arrest, he was taken to the CBI headquarters. In the first segment, we talk to Deeptiman Tiwary, who reports on corruption and government agencies for the Indian Express, about the INX Media case and how Chidambaram is involved in it. Next, we talk about Chandrayaan-2. On Tuesday, India’s second lunar exploration mission, Chandrayaan-2 crossed a major milestone, when it entered a lunar orbit. Amitabh Sinha, our resident editor in Pune who writes on science and environment, joins us to talk about Chandrayaan-2's journey so far and the challenge that now lies ahead of it. And last, And last, why Parle Products Pvt Ltd, one of the leading Indian biscuit maker, might lay off up to 10,000 workers. Additional link - https://bit.ly/2Zc3sKE

ENTERTAINMENT In a sensational turn of events, while the British Board of Film Classification on Thursday cleared the conflict-ridden Sanjay Leela Bhansali's film Padmavati, for a scheduled release on December 1, sources close to filmmakers reveal that there's no plan to release the film as of now- not in UK, not in India. Meanwhile, BBFC has certified the film as 12A and categorized it as a "feature" in "drama" genre and has said that there's "moderate violence, injury detail" in the film. Back home, CBFC chief Prasoon Joshi said that CBFC has to follow certain guidelines and it can’t simply give a certificate to a film just because it has submitted the application form. Joshi said CBFC also wants to take a “balanced decision” about the film but it should be given enough time to do that.

In taking stock, former finance minister P Chidambaram lists the things that have gone awry for the people of this country. In a dispassionate tone – shorn of political rhetoric - he identifies the single emotion that has come to grip people of India: fear. This is the emotion that is being stoked by storm troopers of the state. In executing a unilateral cultural text, these storm troopers are telling the people what to eat, what to talk, whom to marry and how to behave. How does one respond to a context like this? We especially want to thank Fr Richard Rego at St. Joseph's College Autonomous, Bangalore for accommodating Sunoh and enabling this podcast.

What makes you an anti-national? Eating beef? Asking the government for details on the surgical strike? Or running an interview with the opposition leader?

Hartosh Singh Bal, political editor of The Caravan, joins this episode of Hafta and tells us why news organisations taking such a stance is dangerous for journalism. Abhinandan Sekhri, Madhu Trehan, Anand Ranganathan and Manisha Pande along with our guest discuss why media is not wrong in asking for details of the surgical strike.
