Indian Journalists Union opposes move to empower PIB to act on ‘fake news’, seeks intervention of MPs

February 2, 2023 by indianexpress.com Leave a Comment

Opposing a draft proposal of the Ministry of Electronics and IT (MeitY) giving powers to the Press Information Bureau (PIB) to direct online platforms to take down news identified as ‘fake’, the Indian Journalists Union (IJU) has sought the intervention of MPs across party lines to ensure its withdrawal. In an open letter to the MPs, the IJU has appealed to the lawmakers “to lend their voice to the efforts to safeguard the most important fundamental right enshrined in the Constitution—the right to freedom of expression”. The journalists’ body has also demanded the formation of an independent body – on the lines of the Press Council of India – for regulation of online content.

How Kohli and Pujara’s issues against spin can be exploited by Australia in the Border-Gavaskar Trophy

February 2, 2023 by indianexpress.com Leave a Comment

After the heroic last-ball, last-wicket, last-session draw New Zealand squeezed out in Kanpur the year before, Rahul Dravid handed curator Shiv Kumar a cheque of Rs 35,000. The coach was not exactly pleased with the surface Kumar had put together—“the turn was low and slow, did not wear and tear,” he would complain—but found joy in the crowd getting to watch a game that lasted a full five days. “It had everything a Test match could offer, quality cricket as well as drama. The match was alive till the final ball, which is a victory for Test cricket.” A Test match lasting all five days in India is an utter rarity in India. Since Australia’s trenchant draw in Ranchi, in 2017, it has happened just thrice in 18 games, one of which was a rain-curtailed one in Eden Gardens. From 2021, the average days-span of a Test match has been 3.6 days. The much-maligned villain of the piece has been the pitch, the raging, kinking turners, where the skilled and shrewd spinners have woven an artful … [Read more...] about How Kohli and Pujara’s issues against spin can be exploited by Australia in the Border-Gavaskar Trophy

February 1, 2023 by indianexpress.com Leave a Comment

Jharkhand Governor Ramesh Bais Sunday returned the domicile Bill — which defines a ‘local’ in the state on the basis of 1932 land records — to the state government to “seriously review” its legality. Relations between the Governor and Chief Minister Hemant Soren have been strained since September last year, over Bais not disclosing the contents of an Election Commission letter to him that reportedly disqualified the CM as an MLA in an office of profit case. Also in Explained | Visakhapatnam will be Andhra’s capital, says Jagan. What happens to Amaravati and the 3-capitals plan? What did the Governor say about the Bill? Bais said the Bill mentions that only local persons, as identified under it, would be eligible for appointment in class 3 and 4 positions of the state government.
