Recently, Prime Minister Narendra Modi visited Kerala and Tamil Nadu, scheduled to have Assembly elections soon, and stressed the need for a double-engine government. The term double-engine government refers to having the same political party (in this case, the Bharatiya Janata Party or its allies in the National Democratic Alliance) in power at both the Centre and in a State. Critics of this model include Tamil Nadu Chief Minister M.K. Stalin, who has asked how Opposition-ruled States are doing well without a double-engine government. Does a double-engine government ensure growth? Louise Tillin and Yamini Aiyar discuss the question in a conversation moderated by Sai Charan. Edited excerpts:Does the discourse around a double-engine government imply an inherent bias against non-BJP/non-NDA governments in the States?

These profound teachings on the nature of pure consciousness as taught by Sri Ramana Maharshi were taken from various sources/texts, including, 'Talks with Ramana Maharshi,' 'Day by Day with Bhagavan' and 'The Maharshi's Gospel'.Ramana Maharshi (1879 -1950) was an Indian sage and jivanmukta (liberated being). He was born Venkataraman Iyer, but is mostly known by the name Bhagavan Sri Ramana Maharshi. He was born in Tiruchuli, Tamil Nadu, India. In 1895, an attraction to the sacred hill Arunachala and the 63 Nayanmars was aroused in him and in 1896, at the age of 16, he had a "death-experience" where he became aware of a "current" or "force" which he recognized as his true "I" or "Self".Music: Arunachala Siva chant - produced by Ramana Maharshi Centre for Learning, Bangalore - India._____________________________

Karnataka keeps talking about decentralizing tech beyond Bengaluru. Its neighbors are actually doing it.Tamil Nadu, Telangana, and Andhra Pradesh are building tech cities from scratch—tier-2 clusters with land banks, fast-track approvals, and statutory bodies with real power. Major companies are choosing Visakhapatnam and Tirupati over Bengaluru now.The difference? Decision-making authority. Karnataka's development body is stuck in a promotional role while other states hand their institutions the teeth to actually execute. One state makes announcements. The others are laying fiber, clearing land, and signing deals.Southern India's tech map is being redrawn.

Last month, during the joint session of the Karnataka legislature, Governor Thawar Chand Gehlot walked out of the House after reading only a few lines of his customary address prepared by the State Cabinet. The Chief Minister accused the Governor of violating his constitutional obligation and indicated that the government was considering approaching the courts. The incident followed similar developments in two other Opposition-ruled States. In DMK-ruled Tamil Nadu, Governor R. N. Ravi walked out of the Assembly without delivering his inaugural address. In LDF-ruled Kerala, Governor Rajendra Vishwanath Arlekar omitted portions of the speech cleared by the Pinarayi Vijayan Cabinet. Should the practice of Governors addressing the State legislatures be scrapped?

Tamil Nadu's 234-seat assembly election hinges on an unprecedented question: can superstar Vijay's TVK disrupt the established DMK-AIADMK duopoly? Host Anirban Chowdhury talks to political analyst Sumanth Raman, who dissects the math Vijay polls around 15% vote share but may win zero seats, potentially acting as a spoiler splitting anti-DMK votes. The AIADMK-led NDA gains ground after securing PMK and TTV Dhinakaran's crucial Thevar community votes, while DMK battles anti-incumbency yet holds firm thanks to Stalin's personal appeal. The magic number: 40% vote share. With caste equations and celebrity politics injecting chaos, Tamil Nadu's outcome remains defiantly unpredictable.You can follow Anirban Chowdhury on his social media: X and Linkedin Check out other interesting episodes like: How Will a Volatile ₹ Impact You in 2026?,Capital Pains: Budget 2026's Loud Silences, India’s Labour Law Reboot, Viral to Valuation: Building Women’s Cricket as a Brand, Why are Music Labels Buying Into Film Companies? and much more.

And subscribe to Rosemary’s “Engineering with Rosie” YouTube channel here. Have a question we can answer on the show? Email us! There’s a remarkable sight in the North Sea right now. Eleven wind turbines, each one floating on water like enormous ships, generating electricity in some of the roughest seas on Earth. Norwegian oil giant Equinor operates the Hywind Tampen floating wind farm, and the results from twenty twenty-five are nothing short of extraordinary. These floating giants achieved a capacity factor of fifty-one point six percent throughout the entire year. That means they produced power more than half the time, every single day, despite ocean storms and harsh conditions. The numbers tell the story. Four hundred twelve gigawatt hours of electricity, enough to power seventeen thousand homes. And perhaps most importantly, the wind farm reduced carbon emissions by more than two hundred thousand tons from nearby oil and gas fields. Production manager Arild Lithun said he was especially pleased that they achieved these results without any damage or incidents. Not a single one. But Norway’s success is just one chapter in a much larger story unfolding across the North Sea. Last week, nine countries gathered in Hamburg, Germany for the North Sea Summit. Belgium, Denmark, France, Britain, Ireland, Luxembourg, the Netherlands, Norway, and their host Germany came together with a shared purpose. They committed to building one hundred gigawatts of collaborative offshore wind projects and pledged to protect their energy infrastructure from sabotage by sharing security data and conducting stress tests on wind turbine components. Andrew Mitchell, Britain’s ambassador to Germany, explained why this matters now more than ever. Recent geopolitical events, particularly Russia’s weaponization of energy supplies during the Ukraine invasion, have sharpened rather than weakened the case for offshore wind. He said expanding offshore wind enhances long-term security while reducing exposure to volatile global fossil fuel markets. Mitchell added something that resonates across the entire industry. The more offshore wind capacity these countries build, the more often clean power sets wholesale electricity prices instead of natural gas. The result is lower bills, greater security, and long-term economic stability. Now let’s cross the Atlantic to Virginia Beach, where Dominion Energy reached a major milestone last week. They installed the first turbine tower at their massive offshore wind farm. It’s the first of one hundred seventy-six turbines that will stand twenty-seven miles off the Virginia coast. The eleven point two billion dollar project is already seventy percent complete and will generate two hundred ten million dollars in annual economic output. Meanwhile, halfway across the Pacific Ocean, Hawaii is doubling down on wind energy. The state just renewed the lease for the Kaheawa Wind Farm on Maui for another twenty-five years. Those twenty turbines have been generating electricity for two decades, powering seventeen thousand island homes each year. The new lease requires the operator to pay three hundred thousand dollars annually or three point five percent of gross revenue, whichever is higher. And here’s something smart: the state is requiring a thirty-three million dollar bond to ensure taxpayers never get stuck with the bill for removing those turbines when they’re finally decommissioned. Even India is accelerating its wind energy development. The Indian Wind Power Association welcomed major amendments to Tamil Nadu’s Repowering Policy last week. The Indian Wind Power Association thanked the government for addressing critical industry concerns. The changes make it significantly easier and cheaper to replace aging turbines with modern, more efficient ones. So from floating turbines in the North Sea to coastal giants off Virginia, from island power in Hawaii to policy improvements in India, the wind energy revolution is gaining momentum around the world. And that’s the state of the wind industry for the 26th of January 2026. Join us tomorrow for the Uptime Wind Industry Podcast.

As the new year unfolds, Monika turns her attention to a deeper structural problem in India's retail finance ecosystem — a market where households are still expected to fend for themselves against complex, opaque, and often mis-sold products. Drawing from her interaction at a pre-Budget discussion with the Prime Minister and insights from the RBI's Financial Stability Report 2025, she lays out why rising commissions, mis-selling in insurance, and weak accountability have made “buyer beware” dangerously outdated. This episode argues that retail finance, unlike everyday goods, fails consumers because products are invisible, payoffs are delayed, disclosures are unreadable, regulation is fragmented, and financial innovation consistently outpaces literacy.Monika makes the case for a radical but necessary shift to a “seller-beware” framework — one that prioritises suitability, long-term outcomes, and harm prevention over commissions and sales targets. She explains how fixing incentives and enforcing suitability checks can transform finance from a product-pushing industry into a genuine problem-solving service. Using mutual funds as a case study, she shows how better-aligned incentives and simpler products unlocked massive household participation, and warns that as millions of new investors enter the system, India cannot afford to flood them with toxic financial products. Finance, she stresses, must solve for lives — not bonuses.In listener queries, Brig Vikas Gupta, a retired Army officer, asks how to exit underperforming mutual fund schemes without taking a heavy tax hit; Dinesh Kumar from Unjuani, Tamil Nadu, seeks validation of his conservative portfolio while grappling with FOMO, lifestyle balance, and risky temptations like crypto; and an anonymous listener from Bengaluru shares his journey to financial stability and asks whether it makes sense to transition into a fee-only financial planning career later in life.Chapters:(00:00 – 00:00) From Buyer Beware to Seller Beware in Retail Finance(00:00 – 00:00) Why India Needs a Suitability-Based Financial System(00:00 – 00:00) Switching Underperforming Mutual Funds Without Letting Tax Hold You Back(00:00 – 00:00) Balancing Saving, Spending, and Risk for a Young Family(00:00 – 00:00) Building a Second Career as a Fee-Only Financial PlannerIf you have financial questions that you'd like answers for, please email us at ⁠mailme@monikahalan.com⁠ Monika's book on basic money management⁠⁠⁠https://www.monikahalan.com/lets-talk-money-english/⁠⁠⁠Monika's book on mutual funds⁠⁠https://www.monikahalan.com/lets-talk-mutual-funds/⁠⁠Monika's workbook on recording your financial life⁠⁠⁠https://www.monikahalan.com/lets-talk-legacy/⁠⁠⁠Calculators⁠⁠⁠https://investor.sebi.gov.in/calculators/index.html⁠⁠⁠You can find Monika on her social media @monikahalan. Twitter ⁠⁠⁠@MonikaHalan⁠⁠⁠Instagram ⁠⁠⁠@MonikaHalan⁠⁠⁠Facebook ⁠⁠⁠@MonikaHalan⁠⁠⁠LinkedIn ⁠⁠@MonikaHalan⁠⁠Production House: ⁠⁠www.inoutcreatives.com⁠⁠Production Assistant:⁠⁠ Anshika Gogoi⁠

Infosys Q3 results: Revenue jumps 8.9% to ₹45,479 crore; beats expectations Infosys reported a decline in profit for the December-ended quarter of FY26, with PAT falling 9.6% sequentially and 2.2% year-on-year (YoY) to Rs 6,654 crore. Despite the dip, the IT major raised its constant currency revenue growth guidance for FY26 to 3–3.5%, up from the 2–3% forecast issued in the previous quarter. Revenue rose 8.9% YoY and 2.2% quarter-on-quarter to Rs 45,479 crore. In constant currency (CC) terms, revenue grew 1.7% YoY and 0.6% QoQ. Large deal momentum improved, with total contract value (TCV) reaching $4.8 billion during the quarter, including 57% net new deals, up from $3.1 billion in the September quarter. PM Internship scheme falters as funds go unused Data from Controller General of Accounts (CGA) showed as against the budget allocation of over Rs 11500 crore, the Ministry spent little over Rs 500 crore. The allocation for the full year has a 94 per cent share, or over Rs 10,800 crore, for the PM Internship Scheme. During FY25, budget allocation was revised to around Rs 1,078 crore from Rs 2,667 crore. The ministry had admitted before the Standing Committee that it was largely because the funds were surrendered under the PM Internship Scheme. CGA data showed actual expenditure was around Rs 680 crore only. Maharashtra, Tamil Nadu top performers in Niti Aayog's export preparedness index 2024 Maharashtra has topped the Niti Aayog's Export Preparedness Index (2024) in the large States category followed by Tamil Nadu and Gujarat in the second and third places respectively.  Uttarakhand, Jammu & Kashmir and Nagaland bagged the top three spots among small States, North East and Union Territories.

India steps up bunker construction along LoC after Operation Sindoor  Following Operation Sindoor, the central government has intensified its focus on strengthening border infrastructure in Jammu and Kashmir. In north Kashmir's Uri sector, the government is constructing at least 500 new bunkers to protect civilians living along the Line of Control (LoC), officials said, as part of broader measures aimed at enhancing safety in border areas vulnerable to cross-border shelling. The lack of adequate bunkers in border areas across Jammu and Kashmir during the Operation Sindoor operation laid bare the risks faced by residents during periods of heightened tension along the 740-km-long LoC.

For years, India has struggled to improve its record on deceased organ donation, even as thousands of patients wait for transplants. This is despite data showing strong willingness among people to donate their organs after death.In this episode, we examine two paradoxes in India's organ donation system. Why do cadaver organ donations remain low despite high posthumous willingness? And why do women make up a larger share of donors, while men dominate among organ recipients? We also explore where the system breaks down — from hospital protocols and transplant coordination to family consent at the time of death. We also look at the sharp gender imbalances in donation and receipt.

Citações e trechos retirados do livro “The Paramount Importance of Self Attention”.Sri Sadhu Om ou Sri Sadhu Om Swamigal (1922 - 1985), foi poeta, autor e discípulo direto de Ramana Maharshi.Sadhu Om nasceu no distrito de Thanjavur em Tamil Nadu, Índia.Ele naturalmente foi dotado de uma mente que sempre buscou o Divino, e em 1943 descobriu o livro “Suddhananda Bharati Sri Ramana Vijayam”, uma biografia Tamil de Ramana Maharshi. Dois anos depois, ele encontrou Ramana pela primeira vez.Assim ele descreveu sua chegada:“Quando entrei no corredor, queria ver Bhagavan, mas só vi um sofá e ninguém sentado nele. Fiquei surpreso ao ver, no entanto, que todo mundo estava fazendo namaskarams (curvar-se perante um mestre) em direção ao sofá. Quando eu estava hesitando em fazer namaskarams, comecei a notar o contorno vago de uma figura humana sentada no sofá. Imediatamente me prostrei. Quando me levantei, vi aquela figura lentamente se solidificando e se tornando clara. Só então pude reconhecê-lo como Sri Bhagavan”. A associação de Sri Sadhu Om com Ramana Maharshi durou quatro anos, de julho de 1946 até a morte de Ramana em abril de 1950.Sadhu Om praticou incansavelmente a Auto-Inquirição em uma casa remota (Sri Arunachala Ramana Nilayam) no interior de Thiruvannamalai, por 30 anos, e anotou escrupulosamente as dificuldades enfrentadas por ele em sua prática, e também os métodos pelos quais ele as superou. Outros discípulos diretos de Ramana o consideravam uma autoridade nos ensinamentos de Ramana, e seu livro sobre a Auto-indagação é muitas vezes considerado o livro-texto definitivo sobre essa prática.Sri Muruganar, muitas vezes considerado o principal discípulo de Ramana, designou Sri Sadhu Om como seu executor literário porque, de acordo com David Godman: “Ele era a única pessoa que entendia completamente suas obras”.

ISRO to kick off 2026 with launch of Earth Observation Satellite The Indian Space Research Organisation (ISRO) is getting ready to launch the PSLV-C62 mission carrying the EOS-N1 Earth Observation satellite along with 15 co-passenger satellites from domestic & international customers on Monday. The mission is the ninth dedicated commercial mission undertaken by NewSpace India Limited (NSIL), the commercial arm of the space organisation. This launch will be the 64th flight of the Polar Satellite launch Vehicle(PSLV) - a workhorse of ISRO's notable missions like Chandrayaan-1, Mars Orbiter Mission, Aditya-L1 and Astrosat Mission.  The PSLV-C62/EOS-N1 mission would initially deploy the Earth Observation Satellite-N1 made by DRDO, followed by other co-passenger satellites into the sun-synchronous orbit around 17 minutes after lift-off. The mission will carry satellites from Indian start-ups like Dhruva Aerospace and OrbitAID Aerospace's AayulSAT, an experimental payload to demonstrate in-orbit satellite refueling technology. X accepts its mistake, says will work as per Indian laws: government sources After a few exchange of communications, Elon Musk-owned X (formerly twitter) has finally accepted its mistake and stated that around 3,500 pieces of content have been blocked, and over 600 accounts were deleted from its chatbot ‘Grok'. The company has also said that going forward, it will not allow obscene imagery, adding that it will work as per law of the land. “X has accepted its mistake and has said it will work as per Indian laws. The company has blocked around 3,500 pieces of content and over 600 accounts were deleted. Going forward, X will not allow obscene imagery,” a senior official at Ministry of Electronics and Information Technology (MeitY) told businessline, reports S Ronendra Singh. SEBI set to give the nod for NSE IPO with NOC likely to be issued in a month's time The No Objection Certificate (NOC) for the much-anticipated listing of the National Stock Exchange (NSE) is likely to be issued as early as in a month's time, as per SEBI Chairman Tuhin Kanta Pandey. “They are right now waiting for our no objection and once they get it, they have to follow other processes and go ahead with preparations...Possibly within this month we will issue it [NOC],” Pandey said in a select media round table in Chennai, reports Sindhu Hariharan. Censor politics: The delay of actor-turned politician Vijay's Jana Nayagan likely to redraw TN poll alliances The denial of the Censor Board nod to Jana Nayagan, starring actor-turned-politician Vijay could potentially alter the political equation in the Tamil Nadu with Assembly polls three months away, and has set off various alliance possibilities, say political observers. Jana Nayagan has been touted as the much-anticipated farewell film for Vijay, the founder of political party Tamilaga Vettri Kazhagam (TVK) who threw his hat into the TN political ring. The movie was scheduled to be released on January 9 but its release now stands indefinitely postponed due lack of censor certificate, writes TE Raja Simhan. And from this week's portfolio edition How safe are large-cap stocks? Over the last one to two years, it has become almost cliched to point out that large-caps are attractive/offer value than small- and mid-cap stocks. How true is that? Of the 100 large-caps, 96 hit their all-time highs in the past five years and 42 of these 96 are trading at least 20 per cent below their peaks. So, before tuning into the usual safety mantras for large-caps, investors should get a hang of why many stocks in that segment, too, have tanked.

Thiruparankundram Murugan Temple is one of the six abodes of Tamil god Murugan. Set in Madurai, the ancient capital of Pandyas, it has found reference in Sangam literature and subsequent literary works. The temple is now in news over the lighting of the Karthigai deepam at the hills. While one section claim that the Deepam is traditionally lit at the Uchhi Pillayar temple, the right wing forces want the Deepam to be lit at the Deepathon which is 50 metres away from the Sikandar Dargah. This is said to have huge ramifications politically and legally for Tamil Nadu. Guest: S.

Amit Shah Playing Big Game in Tamil Nadu - कहीं पे निगाहें कहीं पे निशाना | SIR Game of BJP

In this episode, we perceive the positive attitude of a lady, as portrayed in Sangam Literary work, Aganaanooru 141, penned by Nakeerar. Set in the ‘Paalai’ or ‘Drylands landscape’, the verse presents a dual portrait of an ancient Tamil festival and a Chozha town’s prosperity. அம்ம வாழி, தோழி! கைம்மிகக்கனவும் கங்குல்தோறு இனிய; நனவும்புனை வினை நல் இல் புள்ளும் பாங்கின;நெஞ்சும் நனிபுகன்று உறையும்; எஞ்சாதுஉலகு தொழில் உலந்து, நாஞ்சில் துஞ்சி,மழை கால்நீங்கிய மாக விசும்பில்குறு முயல் மறு நிறம் கிளர, மதி நிறைந்து,அறுமீன் சேரும் அகல் இருள் நடு நாள்;மறுகு விளக்குறுத்து, மாலை தூக்கி,பழ விறல் மூதூர்ப் பலருடன் துவன்றியவிழவு உடன் அயர, வருகதில் அம்ம! துவரப் புலர்ந்து தூ மலர் கஞலி,தகரம் நாறும் தண் நறுங் கதுப்பின்புது மண மகடூஉ அயினிய கடி நகர்ப்பல் கோட்டு அடுப்பில் பால் உலை இரீஇ,கூழைக் கூந்தற் குறுந் தொடி மகளிர்பெருஞ் செய் நெல்லின் வாங்குகதிர் முறித்து,பாசவல் இடிக்கும் இருங் காழ் உலக்கைக்கடிது இடி வெரீஇய கமஞ்சூல் வெண் குருகுதீம் குலை வாழை ஓங்கு மடல் இராது;நெடுங் கால் மாஅத்துக் குறும் பறை பயிற்றும்செல் குடி நிறுத்த பெரும் பெயர்க் கரிகால்வெல் போர்ச் சோழன் இடையாற்று அன்னநல் இசை வெறுக்கை தருமார், பல் பொறிப்புலிக் கேழ் உற்ற பூவிடைப் பெருஞ் சினைநரந்த நறும் பூ நாள் மலர் உதிர,கலை பாய்ந்து உகளும், கல் சேர் வேங்கை,தேம் கமழ் நெடு வரைப் பிறங்கியவேங்கட வைப்பிற் சுரன் இறந்தோரே. In this long trip, we get to traverse not only this harsh domain, but also a prosperous ancient town, as we listen to the lady say these words to her confidante, when the confidante worries that the lady will not be able to bear with the parting of the man, who has left in search of wealth: “Listen, my friend! May you live long! Every night, the dreams are exceptionally pleasant; In real life too, in the well-etched, fine mansion, bird omens that are heard sound good; As for the heart, it too rests in a state of calm love; At the time when the mighty profession of the world diminishes and ploughs fall asleep, in that season when pouring rainclouds have departed with the wind, and in the sky, the little hare glows in a dark hue, as the full moon reaches its favourite star, in the midnight hour, amidst the expanding darkness, when all the streets are lit up and adorned with high garlands in our fertile and prosperous ancient town, at this time, hope he will return to relish the festivities, celebrated by the gathering of many! Adorning fully blossomed perfect flowers, along with sandalwood paste, on her cool and fragrant tresses, the new bride, boils milk on the many-sided stove in that rich mansion, filled with plentiful food, and then along with maiden, wearing small bangles and having short hair, pounds on paddy grains, harvested from bent stalks in the huge field, to make flattened rice. Hearing the din of this dark-stemmed pestle, startled by the loud and explosive sounds, a pregnant white bird, takes a short flight from the wide branch of a plantain tree, with sweet fruit clusters, to the tall-trunked mango tree, in the town of Idaiyaaru, ruled by the famous Chozha King Karikaalan, who has the ability to restore even a ruined town. Wanting to bring back prestigious wealth, akin to this town, he has left to the drylands, where making fragrant blooms on the huge branches of the tree, with flowers in the hue of the many-striped tiger, namely the Kino tree, soaring near a boulder, a male monkey leaps and frolics, in the honey-fragrant, tall hills of the Venkata mountain ranges!” Let’s explore the many roads leading to diverse destinations in this verse! The lady starts by talking about how her dreams are filled with pleasant scenes and even in her waking hours, all she hears are good omens from the birds. Owing to all this, her heart seems to be in a state of calm. What a refreshing change from the usual lamenting lady, who cries and cries about her sleepless eyes, thinning arms and pining heart, whom we have encountered in song after song from this domain.  Next, the lady talks about a time when the work of farming takes a break, a time when the clouds are done pouring, and are on their way out. To etch another element, she talks about this, as the time when the little rabbit glows bright. On reading further, we understand that this little rabbit is the one we see in the moon, and the lady wants to say it’s the time of full moon, and so that rabbit is all the more vivid. It’s also a time, when the moon traverses and meets with a particular star, identified as ‘Karthigai’ or ‘Pleiades star cluster’. At this time, lights are lit up and garlands adorn their streets, the lady details, and she makes a wish that her man returns at least by this time, to partake in these grand festivities, when people gather together. A moment to note how the festival of ‘Karthigai’, celebrated even today in Tamilnadu, by the lighting of lamps, is an ancient custom, originating in the Sangam era. After this, the lady talks about two aspects in connection with the man. One characterises the wealth he’s searching for, and to do that, the lady brings in the simile of a fertile town of Idaiyaaru, ruled by the famous Chozha King Karikaalan, and when depicting this town, she presents a rather interesting domestic scene, wherein a new bride, who has come to live in the rich mansion of her husband, adorns her hair with flowers and sandalwood paste, and then boils milk in a stove with many divisions, implying that multiple food items can be cooked at the same time, and the house too is sketched as one with an unceasing supply of foods. This bride then joins together with many other maiden and pounds paddy. Hearing the loud and repeated sounds of this pestle, a pregnant white bird is startled and takes off, from a short plantain tree to a tall mango tree, perhaps in an attempt to put some distance between itself and its tormentors. Such is the fertility of this town and my man wants to bring back wealth that’s equal in stature to this town, the lady explains.  The next aspect she dwells on is where the man has gone to, to attain such a wealth and she informs us this is to a drylands in the extent of the Venkata hills, identified as ‘Tirupathi’ in Contemporary Andhra Pradesh, and she describes this place, as one filled with Kino trees, with bright yellow flowers in the hue of tiger stripes, and talks about how a male monkey leaps about, making this tree’s flowers fall. The lady concludes with this image of falling yellow flowers, perhaps as a wish that it should rain gold on the man, in his journey to seek wealth, so that he would return in time for the festival of lights, and she promises to her confidante that she would bear well with the parting until this time! What a patient and thoughtful lady, who understands and perseveres, in spite of her pain of parting! No wonder the lady has pleasant dreams and hears good omens, for it’s only with the brush of hope and positivity, can we change the scene in the canvas of our present!

In The Indebted Woman: Kinship, Sexuality, and Capitalism (Stanford UP, 2023), the authors Isabelle Guérin, Santosh Kumar and G. Venkatasubramanian conceptualise how gender, debt, and capitalism are related. For over ten years, the researchers have been working in the Indian countryside of east-central Tamil Nadu, observing a credit market that specifically targets Dalit women. The book highlights not only the ways how credit is distributed, but also how it is repaid. Combining in-depth ethnography with statistical surveys and financial diaries advanced the understanding of how Dalit women deal with debt, exposing the ways in which capitalism shapes womanhood. The authors' nuanced attention to body, identity, caste, and class provides a comprehensive theory of the sexual division of debt for the first time.  Isabelle Guérin is Senior Research Fellow at the French Institute of Research for Sustainable Development, and Associate at the French Institute of Pondicherry. Santosh Kumar is a part-time researcher and founder and head of the Mithralaya School of music, dance, and arts. G.

A 5-judge Bench of the Supreme Court has given its opinion on the 16th Presidential Reference. This Reference pertained to the discretionary powers of the Governor and the President. The Supreme Court said that no timelines can be fixed for Governors or the President to act on Bills passed by State legislatures. It also said there can be no ‘deemed assent'. But it added that in cases where the Governor's inaction “is prolonged, unexplained and indefinite” there will be ‘limited judicial scrutiny”. This advisory opinion of the Supreme Court contradicts its own judgement of April 8, in State of Tamil Nadu vs Governor of Tamil Nadu & Union of India. In this case, the two-judge Bench of Justices JB Pardiwala and R Mahadevan, had held said that the Governor cannot exercise a “pocket veto” by indefinitely sitting on Bills, and they fixed a three-month timeline for them to act on the Bills. What happens to this judgement now? Former Chief Justice B.R. Gavai did clarify that the opinion given in a Presidential judgement did not overrule a judgement. Nonetheless, the question remains: given that a Supreme Court judgement declares the law, what happens to the April 8 judgement now? Does the Court's ‘opinion' mean that the Centre now enjoys a default ‘pocket veto' on state laws? Does it mean Governors can sit on any Bill as long as they like, waiting for the state to go to court? Guest: Krishnadas Rajagopal, The Hindu's Legal Correspondent. Host: G.

Tiruppur, Tamil Nadu, India's knitwear capital, has long depended on massive U.S. orders that shaped its factories, products, and growth. But when the Trump administration imposed a 50% tariff on Indian garment imports, the town's export engine received a long-pending shock. Turns out, the crisis became a turning point. Manufacturers are now scrambling for discounts, shifting production to Sri Lanka and Kenya, reorienting toward Europe, and overhauling product lines from mass-market basics to intricate boutique styles. Amid layoffs, automation, and global diversification, Tiruppur's exporters are discovering something surprising.This shock may be exactly the push the industry needed to evolve.Tune in.Daybreak is produced from the newsroom of The Ken, India's first subscriber-only business news platform.
