Remembering the miracle of Kolkata on its 22nd anniversary: The day Laxman and Dravid batted all day and created history

When Steve Waugh’s “invincibles” came to India in February 2001, nobody expected India to win the series. While Australia, with several all-time greats, was on a long winning run, India still suffered from the shock of the match-fixing saga. India defied all the odds during that historic season and upset that formidable Australian team in 2001, and India’s fightback began on this day, 22 years ago.

The series started as anyone expected, in Mumbai. At the Wankhede, Australia totally dominated India and came away with a dominating 10 wickets win, taking their winning run to 16 consecutive Tests. Even though the star Indian batsman Sachin Tendulkar hit half-centuries in both innings, he could not stop the Australian juggernaut as they ran roughshod over the Indian team.

By the time the second Test started in Kolkata, most Indian fans had accepted that they were going to lose the series, and the start of the Kolkata Test didn’t give them any reason to think otherwise. Australia, led by skipper Steve Waugh’s century piled on 445 in the first innings. India had Australia at 269 for 8 but then Waugh did what he did best, batting with the tail. Along with Gillespie and McGrath, he put on 176 runs for the last 2 wickets.

In response, India had an abject collapse and scored only 171 with VVS Laxman’s 59 being the only shining light. Leading by 274, Australia decided to impose follow-on, a decision that ensured that teams started to avoid the follow-on in later years.

While following on, Indian team management made a switch, they put Laxman at 3 instead of 6, and put Dravid at 6, a decision that was going to change Test cricket forever. Coming in at 3, Laxman led the Indian team’s fightback as they put up a much better fight while following on. Still, when Ganguly departed at 232, India was 42 runs from avoiding an innings defeat as current Indian coach Rahul Dravid joined Laxman.

What happened next is the stuff of legends. Laxman and Dravid batted, and batted, and batted, and then batted some more. on 14th March 2001. Laxman and Dravid batted the whole day as a bowling attack comprising 2 of the greatest bowlers ever, Warne and McGrath, and two other exceptional bowlers, Gillespie and Kasprowicz, failed to get a single wicket.

Steve Waugh tried everyone, they used 9 bowlers in total during that partnership but to no avail. On 14 March 2001, there was nothing getting past Laxman and Dravid. Eventually, the partnership ended the next day at 376 when Laxman got out, but by then India was well on top.

Indian captain Ganguly declared once Dravid fell setting Australia a target of 384 but Australia could manage only 212 in response as Harbhajan Singh took 6 wickets to add to his 7 wicket-haul in the first innings while Sachin Tendulkar chipped in with 3 massive wickets.

Australians were stunned as their 16-match winning streak was broken in spectacular fashion, and then they went on to lose the next Test in Chennai in another dramatic encounter to lose the series 1-2.

That Laxman-Dravid partnership scared the teams off imposing follow-on for years. That day of batting, against the highest standard of bowling one could imagine, still gives goosebumps to everyone who saw it. It still remains the greatest day of test cricket India has ever experienced.

Action against encroachment: 26 illegal mazars built on reserved forest land demolished by Uttarakhand govt

On Monday, in a major crackdown, the Uttarakhand government rolled bulldozers over illegal mazars which were built by encroachment on the reserved forest land. This is after Uttarakhand CM Pushkar Singh Dhami directed the state authorities to clear forest land of encroachment.

According to the reports, the government authorities demolished 26 mazars that were illegally constructed on the government’s forest land. The authorities conducted a survey and identified around 1400 religious structures built illegally on government land.

As per reports, some of the illegal mazars did not even contain any human remains.

The video of the incident is going viral over social media in which bulldozers can be seen rolling over a small mazar built in forest space. Several images of demolition have also gone viral showing the mazars being pulled down. The State Forest Department confirmed the development and stated that 7 mazars have been demolished in the Kalsi forest division, 6 in Ladpur, and 5 in the Raipur forest region.

Reports mention that some people of the Barelvi Muslim community are actively involved in encroaching government land and have been intentionally building mazars in forest areas, eventually erecting permanent structures and claiming a larger portion of the forest lands. These mazars are further believed to attract a lot of poor people from the Hindu community in the area along with the Muslims.

Notably, the chief minister had given top government employees specific instructions to conduct a special examination for illegal mazars, temples, and churches built on government property. 15 of the 17 illegal mazars have been razed in Dehradun alone, as per reports.

CM Dhami had also specifically noted that illegal mazars were being built on the government land and had said that any kind of land encroachment would not be tolerated. “The government will not tolerate encroachments of its land and action will be taken against these Mazars,” he had said.

In the current case, CFO of Yamuna Circle of Forest Department. Dr Vinay Bhargava said that the officials had got the survey done. “We have removed illegal structures built in the forest land. Any kind of encroachment will not be tolerated,” he said. He also added that as per the Supreme Court order dated 29 September 2009, no new religious place can be constructed on the state property without permission.

The SC bench in 2009 had directed that there shall be no fresh construction of places of worship at public places throughout the country. As per the order, the restriction would apply to temples, mosques, churches, gurudwaras, and places of worship of all other communities.

Exporter of terrorists, no locus standi on Kashmir: India slams Pakistan at 146th Parliamentary Union in Bahrain

Exporter of terrorists, no locus standi on Kashmir: India slams Pakistan at 146th Parliamentary Union in Bahrain

India on Monday slammed Pakistan at the 146th Inter-Parliamentary Union (IPU) Assembly in Bahrain.

Pakistan in its address at the IPU Assembly, referred to Kashmir in its habitual manner. India through a Right to Reply (RoR) slammed Pakistan terming it an “exporter of terrorists” and reiterated that Pakistan has no locus standi on Jammu and Kashmir and Ladakh. 

Rajya Sabha MP Sasmit Patra, in his speech, said: “It is unfortunate that Pakistan has chosen once again to misuse the august platform by mentioning in their statement about Jammu and Kashmir which is an integral part of India. This mentioning is completely unacceptable.”

Patra further said, “The Union Territories of Jammu and Kashmir and Ladakh have been and will always remain an integral and inalienable part of India. No amount of rhetoric and propaganda from any country can override this fact.

Pakistan has no locus standi to comment on India’s internal affairs. We have repeatedly called upon it to vacate the Indian territories under its illegal and forcible occupation with immediate effect. It is ironic that a country, which is a known exporter of terrorists, and responsible for inflicting countless cross-border terrorist attacks in Jammu and Kashmir is claiming to champion the cause of human rights.”

In March, India’s Permanent Representative to the UN, Ruchira Kamboj, had termed frivolous, baseless and politically motivated, the remarks made by Pakistan Foreign Minister Bilawal Bhutto Zardari on Union Territory of Jammu and Kashmir during a debate on ‘Women, Peace and Security’, at the UN Security Council.

She had said: “It’s unworthy to even respond to such malicious and false propaganda.” Kamboj said, “Our focus has been and will always be positive and forward-looking.”

India slamming Pakistan at the global Parliamentary body, yet again exposed the latter’s false propaganda on Kashmir.

India’s heft and prowess on the international parliamentary platform has been acknowledged and appreciated by other member countries.

5 arguments made by J Sai Deepak in the Sabarimala temple priest appointment case that decimated another bid to desecrate tradition

5 arguments made by J Sai Deepak in the Sabarimala temple priest appointment case that decimated another bid to desecrate tradition

On February 25 this year, advocate J Sai Deepak argued before the Kerala High Court about the need to protect the traditions of the Sabarimala temple and not entertain external intervention in its affairs including the appointment of priests.

The development took place after a bunch of petitions were filed, challenging a notification (May 27, 2021) by the Travancore Dewaswom Board that invited applications from Malayala Brahmins for appointment as Chief Priest (Melshanthi) of the Sabarimala temple.

Advocate J Sai Deepak, who represented the ‘People for Dharma Trust’, pointed out that the appointment of the chief priest is not completely a secular activity and thus not violative of fundamental rights guaranteed under Articles 14, 15 (1) and 16(2) of Indian constitution.

While emphasising that the petitions challenging the Travancore Dewaswom Board notification is based on a flawed premise, he said, “The act of appointment is secular, but the considerations that go into the appointment are not secular, they are patently religious and they are patently unsecular but not anti-secular.”

J Sai Deepak stated that the Sabarimala temple is not fully controlled by the Government of Kerala and cannot be considered as an extension of the State (the very crux of the petitions) under provisions made under the Travancore-Cochin Hindu Religious Institutions Act of 1950.

The advocate argued that Constitutional rights guaranteed under Article 14 (equality before the law) and Article 21 (right to life) of the Indian constitution cannot supersede that of Articles 25 and 26 (right to religion) as the latter affects the temple, its deity and the devotees.

J Sai Deepak calls for the protection of Sabarimala temple traditions

“No class of individuals can claim rights better than the community itself,” J Said Deepak reiterated while calling for the protection of the age-old diverse traditions of the tantric temple

He further emphasised, “No other religion requires Art. 26 as much as the Hindu religion, or Hindu Dharma in that sense. It is an ocean that has several seas and lakes and rivers within it, each of which needs to be protected.”

The advocate added, “When this particular temple is considered it needs to be appreciated that this is a class in itself, even within the tantric denomination, therefore there are rights of Article 26 here.” J Sai Deepak also rubbished claims of ‘caste-based reservation’ for the post of the chief priest at Sabarimala temple.

Counsel dismisses claims of caste discrimination in appointments

“There is no caste consideration involved here, it doesn’t even say Brahmins from anywhere. That would’ve been a caste-based consideration directly. It doesn’t say Brahmins from anywhere,” he stated.

“Even the so-called purest of Chitambaram Brahmins cannot apply, Uttarakhandi Brahmins cannot apply, Kashmiri Brahmins cannot apply,” J Sai Deepak reiterated adding that the appointment of Melshanthi is in line with the preservation of spiritual energy at Sabarimala temple.

The advocate pointed out the ills of entertaining petitions challenging the 2021 notification of the Travancore Dewaswom Board. “If this particular petition were to succeed, it translates to the weaponisation of the noble principles of affirmative action (caste reservation), which is for a very different purpose altogether”.

J Sai Deepak highlights the ramifications of judicial intervention in the Sabarimala case

While arguing before the Kerala High Court, J Sai Deepak noted, “Any attempt through a judicial intervention to change this would amount to rewriting the history of the temple. That cannot be permitted. It has massive ramifications for everyone.”

He further stated, “Tomorrow if a person born in a Muslim family says I believe in this deity, I am well versed in the Vedas, I know Sanskrit, I know tantra, make me a priest in this temple. Why can’t they make that argument? After all the temple is open to everyone.”

“Tomorrow a Russian can apply. What if he becomes an Indian citizen and says I wish to become a priest here. This is not beyond the realm of possibility because that is the consequence of this petition. It opens the floodgates for everyone,” the advocate highlighted.

Advocate objects against the secularisation of non-secular activity

J Sai Deepak argued against the secularisation of non-secular activities such as appointments of priests in Hindu temples. “To reduce the religious prescriptions of the post of melshanti to secular activity is to completely miss the point,” he pointed out.

“If you believe that such a central aspect of the temple is a secular activity, then what remains religious of a religious temple? A temple is not a secular institution. Let us not beat around the bush on this point. It is a religious institution, every consideration is a religious institution,” he further added.

J Sai Deepak contended, “Crowd management is not religious, payment of salaries is not religious. Those are different aspects. But this is going into the heart of the identity of the temple and if I may say so, this petition is much more serious and graver in consequences than the temple entry issue.”

He also informed that the Supreme Court is currently deliberating on the right and extent up to which the Judiciary can interfere in such matters of religion. J Sai Deepak thus requested the Kerala High Court to defer the judgment until the Supreme court makes a decision about the ‘essential religious practice test.’

NIA raids multiple locations in Jammu Kashmir, suspects linked to targeted killings of minority Hindus under scanner

The National Investigation Agency (NIA) has been conducting raids at multiple locations in Jammu and Kashmir in cases related to terror activities of chiefs and members of proscribed terrorist organizations by using cyber-space in the Union Territory, targeting minorities, security personnel and spreading communal disharmony, said sources.

The case pertains to the criminal conspiracy for carrying out terrorist and subversive activities hatched by the cadres and Over Ground Workers (OGWs) of various proscribed organizations and their affiliates off-shoots, operating under various pseudo names, at the behest of their Pakistani commanders and handlers, an official source said.

They are involved in carrying out terrorist attacks by using cyber-space in Jammu and Kashmir, targeting minorities, and security personnel and spreading communal disharmony.

The case had been suo-moto registered by the NIA on June 21 last year.

The agency on December 23 last year had also conducted searches at 14 locations across Jammu and Kashmir in the districts of Kulgam, Pulwama, Anantnag, Sopore and Jammu. During the searches, the agency sleuths then recovered various incriminating materials such as digital devices, SIM cards and digital storage devices from the searched premises.

Punjab: Police arrest Amritpal Singh’s aide in car theft and assault case

Punjab: Police arrest Amritpal Singh’s aide in car theft and assault case

On March 13, Punjab Police arrested an alleged associate of Waris Punjab De chief and controversial pro-Khalistan Sikh preacher Amritpal Singh in a car theft case. The person has been identified as Sukhminder Singh, a resident of the village Dodhike in Moga, Punjab.

As per reports, the accused stole a Hyundai i20 car near Alpha One in Amritsar. The police have not released any statement on the matter. A report in Dainik Bhaskar suggests that the accused is alleged to be Amritpal Singh’s associate. He claimed to have come to Amritsar only for Amritpal.

Dainik Bhaskar quoted unnamed sources who provided the details of the incident. On the intervening night of March 4-5, Sukhminder Singh and his five associates stole a car from a young man and beat him up. He was rushed to the hospital for treatment. In his statement, the victim told the police that six people dressed as Nihangs snatched the car from him.

Amritpal refused to recognize Sukhminder

On the other hand, Amritpal Singh has denied any association with Sukhminder. He claimed if someone meets him and later commits a crime, that does not mean the accused is close to him. Amritpal Singh is already having clashes with the state government on multiple fronts. Recently, the state authorities cancelled several arm licenses of his associates. Furthermore, it has been reported that one of Singh’s uncles Harjit Singh is also on the list of those who may lose the arms license. Harjit was part of the mob that attacked the police station in Ajnala on February 23.

Amritpal Singh has claimed there is a well-planned conspiracy to disarm Sikhs. He said, “When the Panth needs them, they should stand by it… like General Shubegh Singh, who chose to side with the Panth in their time of need. This is possible if the youth study Sikh religion at an early age.” He further claimed the ‘Panth’ was going through a crisis and urged his followers to hold religious functions like Guru Parchar and Gurmat Sangat.

President Biden claims American banking system remains safe following collapse of two US banks, blames Trump administration for crisis

President Biden claims American banking system remains safe following collapse of two US banks, blames Trump administration for crisis

US President Joe Biden on Monday (local time) said the American banking system remains safe following the collapse of two US banks — Silicon Valley Bank and Signature Bank. 

“Small businesses across the country that had accounts at Silicon Valley Bank and Signature Bank can breathe easier knowing they’ll be able to pay their workers. It won’t cost taxpayers a dime. This is paid for with the fees that banks pay into Deposit Insurance Fund,” said Biden. However, the failures have nonetheless created concern among customers who hold their money in other similarly-sized banks. 

US regulators closed the Silicon Valley Bank on Friday after it experienced a traditional bank run, where depositors rushed to withdraw their funds all at once. It is the second largest bank failure in U.S. history, behind only the 2008 failure of Washington Mutual. 

In a sign of how fast the financial bleeding was occurring, regulators announced that New York-based Signature Bank had also failed. 

Biden underscored that the American banking system remains “safe” as he laid out how his administration is taking action to contain the collapse. 

He blamed the previous US administration for the banking failure. Biden said, “During the Obama-Biden administration, we put in place tough requirements on banks like Silicon Valley Bank and Signature Bank, including Dodd-Frank Law, to make sure that the crisis we saw in 2008 would not happen again. Unfortunately, the last administration rolled back some of these requirements. I am going to ask Congress and banking regulators to strengthen the rules for banks to make it less likely this kind of bank failure would happen again and to protect American jobs and small businesses.” 

Meanwhile, at First Republic Bank in Studio City Monday morning, there was a steady stream of customers taking their money out and moving it to bigger banks. 

This came amid worries about what may be next to topple following the second-and third-largest bank failures in US history. 

The pressure is majorly on the regional banks a couple of steps below in size of the massive, “too-big-to-fail” banks that helped take down the economy in 2007 and 2008. 

Shares of First Republic plunged 62.6 per cent, even after the bank said Sunday it had strengthened its finances with cash from the Federal Reserve and JPMorgan Chase, reported ABC 7. 

Amid the turmoil, the First Republic in a response to Eyewitness News, tried to reassure its nervous customers. 

“We’re continuing to fully serve the needs of our clients by opening accounts, making loans, executing transactions and delivering exceptional service at our offices and online,” First Republic said in a statement. 

Huge banks, which have been repeatedly stress-tested by regulators following the 2008 financial crisis, weren’t down as much. JPMorgan Chase fell 1.2 per cent, and Bank of America dropped 3.9 per cent. 

First Republic Bank is small compared to the nation’s largest banks.

WB teacher recruitment scam: TMC’s Santanu Banerjee sent to 11-day ED custody

Trinamool Congress (TMC) youth wing leader Santanu Banerjee who was arrested by Enforcement Directorate (ED) in connection with the teachers’ recruitment scam case, has been sent to the custody of the central agency for 11 days.

The TMC youth leader was produced in the City session court on Monday by ED. He will be produced again before the court on March 24 after his 11 days of ED custody. ED, on Friday, arrested Santanu Banerjee after interrogating him for eight hours in Kolkata.

The case was registered on the orders of the Calcutta High Court against the then Minister-in-charge, Department of School Education, West Bengal, and others on the allegations of illegal appointment of Assistant Teacher for classes of 11th and 12th standard.

It was further alleged that the then Advisor of West Bengal Central School Service Commission was part of the network which was involved in illegally accommodating undeserving candidates for appointment in SSC scam cases.

Former West Bengal Education Minister Partha Chatterjee and his aide Arpita Mukherjee are facing a probe into the West Bengal School Service Commission (WBSSC) recruitment scam.

Last year, the Directorate of Enforcement (ED) had filed a prosecution complaint against eight accused including Partha Chatterjee and Arpita Mukherjee in the Teachers Recruitment Scam in West Bengal before the PMLA Special Court, Kolkata. In October 2022, the CBI filed a chargesheet against 12 persons, including the former chairman of the WBCSSC, Subiresh Bhattacharya, in connection with the alleged illegal appointment of assistant teachers through the WBSSC.

The CBI also named a former assistant secretary of the WBCSSC, an ex-advisor, two former program officers of the commission, and six others in the chargesheet submitted before an Alipore special judge.

The accused in the chargesheet were identified as Santi Prasad Sinha, Ashok Kumar Saha, Kalyanmoy Ganguly, Parna Bose, Samarjit Acharya, Prasanna Kumar Roy, Pradip Singh, Jnui Das, Md Azad Ali Mirza, Imam Momin and Rohit Kumar Jha.

‘Those who invested in failed Silicon Valley Bank and Signature Bank won’t be protected. They knowingly took the risk’: US President Joe Biden

‘Those who invested in failed Silicon Valley Bank and Signature Bank won’t be protected. They knowingly took the risk’: US President Joe Biden

Following the shutdown of the New York-based state-owned Signature Bank and California-based Silicon Valley Bank in a span of three days, US President Joe Biden said on Monday that investors in those banks will not be protected.

“Investors in the banks will not be protected, no one is above the law. They knowingly took a risk and when the risk didn’t pay off, investors lose their money. That’s how capitalism works,” said Biden.

In an effort to reassure the US citizens that there is no need for panic after federal agencies stepped in following the failures of two big banks over the weekend, Biden added that no losses will be borne by US taxpayers following the collapse of Silicon Valley Bank and Signature Bank.

“Americans can rest assured that our banking system is safe. Your deposits are safe. Let me also assure you, we will not stop at this. We’ll do whatever is needed,” Biden said from the White House.

“Because of the actions that our regulators have already taken, every American should feel confident that their deposits will be there if and when they need them,” he continued. “Second, the management of these banks will be fired. If the bank is taken over by FDIC, the people running the bank should not work there anymore.”

“Third, investors in the banks will not be protected. They knowingly took a risk, and when the risk didn’t pay off, investors lose their money. That’s how capitalism works. And fourth, are important questions of how these banks got into the circumstance in the first place. We must get the full accounting of what happened and why those responsible can be held accountable,” he said.

President Joe Biden vowed to hold those responsible for bank failures “fully accountable”. Biden also said that he will speak about the US banking system on Monday and reassure Americans after the failures of Silicon Valley Bank and Signature Bank.

State regulators in USA shut down New York-based Signature Bank on Sunday, just two days after California authorities closed Silicon Valley Bank, marking the 3rd largest failure in US banking history. The shutdown is the result of the collapse of SVB Financial Group’s Silicon Valley Bank, with the economic meltdown spreading to other institutions.

The US Treasury Department and other bank authorities stated in a joint statement on Sunday that all Signature Bank depositors will be made whole and that “no losses will be borne by the taxpayer”.

The FDIC formed a “bridge” successor bank to Signature on Sunday, allowing customers to access their funds on Monday. Signature Bank depositors and borrowers will automatically become bridge bank customers, according to the FDIC. The regulator named Greg Carmichael as CEO of the bridge bank.

Signature’s fall came on the heels of Silicon Valley Bank’s failure on Friday, the greatest failure since Washington Mutual went bankrupt during the financial crisis in 2008. Washington Mutual remains the largest bank failure in American history.

Pakistan court issues non-bailable warrant against ex-PM Imran Khan after he failed to appear in a case pertaining to threatening female judge

On Monday, March 13, a district and sessions court in Islamabad issued a non-bailable arrest warrant against Pakistan Tahrik-e-Insaf leader and Pakistan’s former prime minister Imran Khan in a case pertaining to threatening District and Sessions Judge Zeba Chaudhry while addressing a public meeting on 20th August 2022 in Islamabad.

According to reports, a police team from Islamabad flew by helicopter to Lahore to arrest PTI Chairman Imran Khan after the court issued a non-bailable arrest warrant against him.

Notably, Imran Khan was expected to appear in court today. Nevertheless, Imran Khan submitted a plea to be excused from the court, citing security concerns. The court, however, rejected Imran Khan’s plea and issued an arrest warrant, as per a report by Geo News.

Senior Civil Judge Rana Mujahid Rahim ordered that the former prime minister be arrested and brought before the court by March 29.

In August last year, Imran Khan held a political rally in solidarity with his special assistant Shahbaz Gill, alleging that he was being tortured in custody. Imran Khan’s Chief of Staff was arrested on sedition charges for making comments against the army. During that speech, Imran Khan allegedly threatened judge Zeba Chaudhry, saying she should “prepare herself as the action would be taken against her”.

Immediately after the remark, Imran Khan was booked under several sections of the Pakistan Penal Code in the FIR against him, including 506 (punishment for criminal intimidation), 504 (intentional insult with intent to provoke breach of the peace), 189 (threat of injury to public servant), and 188 (disobedience to order duly promulgated by public servant).

Pak ex-PM Imran Khan disappears when police came to arrest him in a corruption case

Interestingly, on Sunday (March 5), the Islamabad police attempted to arrest former Pakistani Prime Minister Imran Khan for ignoring court summons on 3 different occasions in connection to the infamous Toshakhana corruption case.

The cops reached the residence of the former PM, which is located at Zaman Park in Lahore, but could not find him. Reportedly, Khan was ‘not available’ when the Superintendent of Police (SP) entered his room.

The Islamabad police said that they were only enforcing the court’s orders and that law was equal for all in Pakistan. The cops also warned the political supporters of Imran Khan of arrest if they tried to obstruct them from carrying out their duty.

37 cases filed against Khan across the country

It is pertinent to note here that the former Prime Minister of Pakistan and Pakistan Tehreek-e-Insaf (PTI) chairman Imran Khan is facing a total of 37 cases filed against him in different parts of the country.
