No logic in Bangladesh refusing to play Test series in Pakistan: Coach Misbah-ul-Haq
Misbah said it would be a huge disappointment for the Pakistani players if Bangladesh didn't come in January. "I just think they are making a lame excuse to not come to Pakistan and if this happens it would be a huge injustice to Pakistan. Just when teams are starting to come here and play without any problems, Bangladesh is making lame excuses to avoid us in Tests," said Misbah. Misbah feels that Pakistan cricket had already suffered enough not getting to play Test cricket and if Bangladesh didn't come it meant Pakistan's next Test series would be in the summer of 2020 in England. "Then how can we blame our players if they don't perform. It is never easy for any player to perform after not playing a format for four to five months at a stretch." Misbah also expressed his satisfaction over his team's performance and conceded that it had been a tough three months for him and his team. "We have been through difficult times and that is why this performance is good for us. Especially when we were bowled out for 191 on the first day to come back like this is pleasing. I thought our two openers played really well in the second innings," Misbah said.

India's 10-year bonds turn top performer in Asia following RBI's own 'Operation Twist'
With investment and consumption both weak in India, policy makers are trying to spur credit and lift growth from a six-year low. 'The relentless steepening of the yield curve is getting pacified by the RBI coming in and signaling 'I am here to support,'' said Lakshmi Iyer, chief investment officer for fixed income at Kotak Mahindra Asset Management Co. in Mumbai. 'This move brings some sort of sanity check.' The Reserve Bank of India in a statement late Thursday said it will buy 100 billion rupees of the 2029 debt and sell an equal amount of notes maturing next year in an auction on Monday. The concept is similar to Operation Twist used by the Fed in 2011-2012 in an effort to cheapen long-term borrowing and spur bank lending. The Fed then swapped short-term Treasury securities for longer-term government debt, which reduced the gap between two- and 10-year yields. In India, the term premia — difference between the benchmark 10-year yield and the RBI's policy rate — is at 160 basis points. That's higher than the typical spread of less than 100 basis points. The steepening of the curve in the longer end reflects concerns about the government adding to record borrowing as it gets ready to prime the economy. The slowdown has reinforced doubts about the administration meeting its budget aim of 3.3% of GDP this fiscal year. 'The RBI should increase the intensity of its Operation Twist via more vigorous switches of government bonds focused on securities in the tenure of 7-10 year plus,' said Madhavi Arora, economist at Edelweiss Securities Ltd. Future operations will depend on the success of Monday's auction, traders say. 'There's limited appetite for short-end bonds so the RBI will need to offer higher yields,' said Naveen Singh, head of fixed-income trading at ICICI Securities Primary Dealership.

FIR against expelled BJP lawmaker in Uttarakhand for 'casteist' remarks
'Based on the complaint of BJP legislator from Jhabreda Deshraj Karnwal, FIR has been lodged against Champion, MLA from Khanpur assembly segment in Haridwar under IPC sections 153A (promoting enmity between different groups on grounds of religion, race, place of birth, residence, language ), 295 A (deliberate and malicious acts, intended to outrage religious feelings of any class by insulting its religion or religious beliefs), 506 (criminal intimidation), 509 (word, gesture or act intended to insult the modesty of a woman)and relevant sections of Scheduled Castes and Scheduled Tribes (Prevention of Atrocities )Act,' he said. 'We are carrying out investigation in this matter and evidence is being gathered,' Bisht added. When contacted, Champion denied having made any such remarks. 'In April this year, I had challenged Karnwal for a public duel, but he didn't come forward. I have not made any castiest remarks against him or his wife. He is just trying to malign my image. I will give my statement before the officials concerned and tell them what had happened. This is a conspiracy against me but he won't be successful in it,' he said. In July this year, the BJP had expelled Champion for six years from the party after a video surfaced where the lawmaker was seen brandishing guns while dancing. Champion was already under suspension at the time after he had allegedly threatened a journalist. He was among the nine MLAs who had rebelled against former Congress chief minister Harish Rawat in 2016 and joined BJP. Public tussle between the two legislators has been embarrassing for the party for more than a year. In April this year, the rivalry between two warring MLAs from Haridwar had even reached even high court. Champion had filed a police complaint in April this year in Roorkee against Karnwal, for allegedly obtaining false caste certificate in May 2007 from Uttarakhand. He had moved high court, saying he was not satisfied by police's response on his complaint and wanted a free and fair probe on his police complaint. Despite repeated attempts, Karnwal couldn't be contacted for his comments. DailyhuntDisclaimer: This story is auto-aggregated by a computer program and has not been created or edited by Dailyhunt.

Sub-panel for settling Rourkela Steel Plant land issues formed
The displaced persons raised the issue of return of unused and surplus land of RSP to the original tribal owners and the officials committed to examine it. The administration plans to identify unused and surplus land and the sub-committee would file a report to the RDC for appropriate action. The Collector further said the RPDAC would recommend the RSP to consider giving employment to eligible displaced persons left behind beyond the list of 1,098 displaced persons that was cleared by the Supreme Court in 1993. The house also impressed upon the RSP authorities to take up CSR projects for peripheral development in consultation with the district administration, elected representatives and the local displaced persons.The RPDAC meeting should be held at frequent intervals for timely settlement of grievances of the displaced persons, claimed president of RSP & Marshalling Yard Displaced Persons' Committee Lachu Oram. The last RPDAC meeting was held in February 2013. While similar decisions were taken, no serious efforts were made to implement them.Sundargarh MP Jual Oram, MLAs from Rourkela, Birmitrapur and Rajgangpur, SP Nayak, Shankar Oram and CS Rajen Ekka respectively, were present, among others.

The era of tech monopolies
According to a report put together by the analytics and mobile market data firm App Annie, the top five apps in terms of most downloads in the world were (starting from the most downloaded) Facebook, Facebook Messenger, WhatsApp, Instagram, and Snapchat. The first (and top) four of these are now owned by Facebook. Facebook also put in a spirited bid to acquire Snapchat, but hasn't yet managed to bag that one. The next five are Skype, Tiktok, UC Browser, YouTube, and Twitter. The second half of the list shows the increasing dominance of Chinese firms in the app market. Both TikTok (owned by ByteDance) and UC Browser (owned by the Alibaba Group) are headquartered in China. Google (that owns YouTube), Microsoft (that owns Skype) and Twitter are the rest of the competitors at the top. Given the amount of bad press that Facebook has received in the past few years — the Cambridge Analytica scandal, the evident disregard for user privacy, the amplification of misinformation and fake news, even the promotion of violence in countries such as Myanmar — the popularity of Facebook-owned apps is surprising. And all this while it continues to be banned in the world's most populous nation — China. While the company has run into legal trouble in Europe after the introduction of a strict data protection regime, and is currently under investigation over antitrust allegations in the United States, its persistent dominance in the app universe has risks. Others such as Google, Microsoft, Amazon, and Apple have also managed to create monopolies within different markets. This sort of monopoly and the resulting concentration of manipulable user data within big tech companies must sound alarm bells in the minds of users and governments.

Ferran Corominas' brace fires FC Goa to top of ISL standings
Goa were rewarded for their efforts in the 19th minute when Coro drew first blood. Jerry Mawihmingthanga was robbed of the ball in his own half by Brandon, and he did well to find Jackichand. The Manipuri winger produced a defence splitting through ball for Boumous who in turn squared it for Coro inside the box and the striker made no mistake to find the back of the net. Lobera was forced into making a substitution in the 20th minute as Jackichand could not continue after injuring his ankle and Seiminlen Doungel was thrown into action. Odisha were struggling to play out from the back and turned over possession at frequent intervals as they were unable to cope with Goa's high press. Against the run of play, Odisha churned out their first chance of the match when Aridane Santana spotted a run by Guedes and squeezed in a superb through ball for him. But the Argentine's poor first touch let him down and his subsequent shot from a tight angle sailed off-target. Gombau made two changes at the break with Xisco and Gaurav Bora coming off the bench. He was also forced to use his third substitution in the 49th minute as Jerry came off worse after a challenge from Mourtada Fall. Odisha came close to drawing level in the 59th minute when Das' inch-perfect cross was headed towards goal by Xisco but for an alert Mohammad Nawaz, who pulled off a brilliant save to keep the scoreline unchanged. At the other end, Arshdeep Singh did well to stop Doungel's attempt from point-blank range. However, it were Goa who scored the next goal. Brandon scored in the 85th minute with a long-range effort after Arshdeep failed to make a routine save. In the 89th minute, Goa further extended their lead when Coro converted from the spot.

What none expected: A tornado in Surrey
hertsey resident Verity Boultwood said the tornado blew the roof off her conservatory."In the past it has withstood bad weather," she said. "One of my neighbours has smashed windows. Trampolines have flown across the gardens here."Fellow resident Philip Passey said he froze when he saw the tornado, which he thought lasted about 40 seconds. He described the scene: "The leaves were going horizontal. I said, 'That looks like a tornado.' There was a huge roar, then nothing."A trampoline lifted up in the air, like it weighed nothing, and was thrown across the garden. My daughter came downstairs and said the shed roof had gone."One shed has disappeared; one blown apart, one has no roof on it. My son said there was a tree across the garden, two cars have been written off. In the farm across the road, we heard a dog broke his leg."Many parts of England are under water because of non-stop rain this month.Ninety-four flood warnings and 232 less severe flood alerts are in place across England, and the Environment Agency said flood defences had been erected in a number of areas. A section of the M23 motorway from London to Brighton has been flooded.Doug Wilson, flood duty manager at the Environment Agency, said: "Environment Agency teams have put up temporary flood defences in a number of locations including Bradford on Avon, Leatherhead, Guildford and Canterbury.

All eyes on Raghubar-Saryu battle, poll results in Jamshedpur by late evening
The counting will start with postal ballots and postal ballots received till 7.45 am will be counted. There will be assembly-wise scanners for the counting of electronically transferred postal ballot system (ETPBS),' Ravishankar Shukla, deputy commissioner cum district election officer, East Singhbhum, told the media late on Saturday. Officials said after Baheragora, counting will be done for Ghatsila, Potka, Jugsalai, Jamshedpur East and Jamshedpur West. This time, the counting will be table-wise and not round-wise. CCTVs will be monitoring the entire counting process of EVMs and videography of the counting process will also be done. In case of any technical fault in controlling units, VVPAT slips will be counted in such seats. Shukla said 700 police personnel would be deployed at the counting centre on Monday and eight checking barriers have been set up. No one without authorised passes would be allowed on the counting premises and even candidates would not be allowed to carry mobile phones inside the counting halls. Counting agents will have to enter the centre by 7am. Election Commission of India (ECI) have appointed six separate observers for monitoring the counting process. Two additional observers — BC Patra for Jamshedpur West seat and Partha Sarathi Sen Sharma for Jamshedpur East seat — will look after the process. Patra is ECI secretary, while Sharma is joint secretary in the chemicals and fertilisers ministry. IAS from Manipur-Tripura cadre Gavde has been appointed as observer for Jugsalai seat.

Modi speech makes Congress seek urgent NIC meet
There is a context to the controversy. Home minister Amit Shah's statement in both Houses of Parliament are in the public domain," Sharma said as the Congress posted several videos of Shah unambiguously declaring the plan to implement the NRC and clarifying the link with the CAA.Asked about Modi's charge that the Congress was spreading falsehood and speaking lies on the issue, Sharma said: "The Prime Minister should speak with responsibility. It is the right and duty of the Congress to raise the concerns of the people and point out that the government has created an atmosphere of insecurity in the country. "We had cautioned the government in Parliament that this would not be tolerated by the people. There should be no politicking on basic issues like citizenship. And it is not the Congress or the other Opposition parties that have threatened to extend the NRC to the entire country. It is the government that did it."Sharma added: "Students who are protesting don't belong to any foreign country. They are also patriots and have every right to protest if the Constitution comes under attack. Who is responsible for the eruption in the Northeast? "The BJP is in government in Assam and there was peace for so long in the state. Who disturbed the peace? The Prime Minister should have provided a healing touch; students from not only Jamia and AMU have come out, thousands of others from IITs, IIMs and other reputed institutions see this as an attack on the basic structure of the Constitution." Another spokesperson, Manish Tewari, tweeted: "The Prime Minister is saying no NRC. Why did they then commit it in their manifesto? Why did Amit Shah say there would be a national NRC? The Prime Minister's speech is nothing but an exercise in sophistry. The countrywide protests have thrown them off."The chief ministers of Congress-ruled states as well as friendly parties like the BJD in Odisha and the JDU in Bihar have refused to implement the NRC, bringing the Centre under abnormal pressure.Even Maharashtra is unlikely to toe the Centre's line. The Jharkhand election results on Monday will make it clear whether the state would heed Modi's call or not.The Prime Minister might have tried to wriggle out of this difficult situation by describing the NRC fears as baseless without actually announcing a rollback.The Congress, however, is not ready to allow this escape route and wants a formal commitment. That's why the demand for a National Integration Council meeting where the chief ministers can haul up the Centre for creating this mess. The agitation is not going to end after the Prime Minister's vague assurances. While activists dismissed Modi's claims as "lies" - social media is flooded with negative reactions - the Congress is continuing its plan to build a parallel movement, with Rahul Gandhi leading a sit-in at Rajghat on Monday. Reports of brutal use of force in Uttar Pradesh have aggravated concerns and bitterness. Priyanka Gandhi Vadra rushed to the state to meet the families of police violence.Rahul too demonstrated his aggressive intent by appealing to the youths not to give up. He said in two tweets: "Dear Youth of India, Modi & Shah have destroyed your future. They can't face your anger over the lack of jobs & damage they've done to the economy. That's why they are dividing our beloved & hiding behind hate. We can only defeat them by responding with love towards every Indian."Dear Students of India, No Indian student should allow Modi-Shah to divide India the way they are doing. Students of India, you are the future of India and India is your future. Let's stand together and fight their hate."

Gandhi biographer and prominent public intellectual Ramachandra Guha
They frame historian, Gandhi biographer and prominent public intellectual Ramachandra Guha being pulled and pushed and arrested by policemen in Bengaluru for no evident crime other than holding up a placard showing a picture of the father of India's Constitution, BR Ambedkar, and articulating his own disagreement with the regime's new law. They frame intellectuals and writers and activists being hauled away from protest venues in Delhi. They frame, essentially, a nervous and paranoid government that appears to have lost the ability to either listen to its intellectuals or its young, or to talk to them. A government that seems to respond to dissent only by suppressing it — by imposing Section 144, through arbitrary detention and by snapping voice, internet and sms services. That the world's fastest growing internet market is also now a global leader in cutting off access to small and large swathes of its population, that the internet clampdown as a way of blocking protests is becoming increasingly commonplace, and that in this, India is in the company of countries like Myanmar, Pakistan, Sudan, Syria and Venezuela, is a reason for deep embarrassment to all those who take pride in the argumentativeness of its democracy. The summary attempt to crack down on dissent against the citizenship law takes place in a grey context. In the backdrop of the current moment is the revocation of Article 370 in Kashmir in August in a manner that has isolated and continues to isolate its people, the detention of thousands of its political workers and leaders, including 83-year-old former chief minister Farooq Abdullah — his incarceration was extended by three months a few days ago — and the longest ever continuous internet shutdown in the country. The scenes that played out in the national capital on Thursday have sent out the signal that the apparent obduracy and imperviousness of government is not limited to its treatment of a long-standing trouble spot. It is the reflexive response to all disagreement and discontent. This is a disquieting signal to the country. There has also been violence and arson, as in Seelampur in the capital, in parts of Lucknow and Mangalore on Thursday. It is incumbent on the state governments and the entire political establishment, including the Opposition, to do whatever it takes to keep the peace. But in doing so, the world's largest democracy cannot look like it cannot accommodate its young who disagree, it cannot afford to signal that it is so ill at ease with itself. At any time, and especially when its economy is in slowdown, India risks a lot if it begins to be seen as a place where the dissenter's mind is not without fear.

Ranbir Kapoor and Shraddha Kapoor to star in Luv Ranjan's next
Besides this, Ranjan has produced Ajay Devgn starrer De De Pyaar De. His upcoming productions also include Jai Mummy Di, Chhalaang and Malang. The director is known for his Punchnama films. Ranbir Kapoor did not have a release in 2019. Earlier, Brahmastra was supposed to release this year but was then postponed to 2020. Apart from Brahmastra, Ranbir has YRF's Shamshera also in his kitty. It has also been speculated that he will be seen in Kabir Singh director Sandeep Reddy Vanga's next, but no official announcement has been made about the same yet. In May 2018, it was announced that Ranbir Kapoor and Ajay Devgn will be seen together in Luv Ranjan's next. Recently, there were rumours that the project has been shelved, but Ranjan told PTI a few days ago, 'It hasn't been shelved. The work is going on. There will be a proper announcement. That's when I will talk about it.' While the names of Ranbir and Shraddha have been announced, Devgn seems to be nowhere in the picture. For Shraddha Kapoor, 2019 was a rocky year. The actor did not find much success with the pan-Indian film Saaho but her film Chhichhore managed to please moviegoers. Shraddha is currently promoting her upcoming film Street Dancer 3D where she stars alongside Varun Dhawan. She will also be seen in Baaghi 3 with Tiger Shroff in 2020.

Class 10 study material by MP Education Department depicts Gandhi negatively
The controversial line reads: 'Kubuddhi was a wicked man and led a life of drinking and gandhijis.' 'It happened due to a misprint. The word which should have been there is 'gambling' instead of 'Gandhiji'. It can be a printing mistake, but there is no mistake of any expert who prepared the question paper,' Vasania told ANI. 'Both the words begin with the letter 'G' and therefore it could have resulted in the mistake. The lesson, which the module relates to is called 'Pot of Gold' which is a part of the moral story,' added Vasania. 'While teaching the students, we strike out the mistake and use the term gambling, which should have been there in the first place,' she added. Congress spokesperson Vibha Patel said that an inquiry will be conducted into the matter and all the people behind the lapse will be taken to task. 'It is indeed a very big mistake. An inquiry will be conducted against all those involved in the making of the question paper. Action will be taken against them. The Congress party has never supported this kind of mentality,' said Patel. DailyhuntDisclaimer: This story is auto-aggregated by a computer program and has not been created or edited by Dailyhunt.

Everton held by Arsenal as new boss Carlo Ancelotti watches on
Gylfi Sigurdsson hit the side-netting from a free kick and striker Cenk Tosun could not get any direction on a sharp low cross by Tom Davies as the home side dictated proceedings. Everton goalkeeper Jordan Pickford produced a superb reflex save to deny Pierre-Emerick Aubameyang from close range shortly after the break before an almighty goalmouth scramble nearly resulted in an own goal at the other end. Neither side could find a breakthrough in the closing stages with Arsenal packing their defence to deal with a flurry of Everton crosses into their penalty area.

Facebook removes fake profiles
hile the technology used to create the fake profile photos was most likely a far cry from the sophisticated AI systems being created in labs at big tech companies like Google, the network of fake accounts showed "an eerie, tech-enabled future of disinformation," said Graham Brookie, director of the Atlantic Council's Digital Forensic Lab.Scientists have already shown that machines can generate images and sounds that are indistinguishable from the real thing or spew vast volumes of fake text, which could accelerate the creation of false and misleading information. This year, researchers at a Canadian company even built a system that learned to imitate the voice of the podcaster Joe Rogan by analysing audio from his old podcasts. "This was a large, brazen network that had multiple layers of fake accounts and automation that systematically posted content with two ideological focuses: support of Donald Trump and opposition to the Chinese government," Brookie said in an interview.

Yelahanka Old, New Towns 3 km apart lack of coordination between Railways and BBMP
Anyone heading from Yelahanka Railway Station toward Bengaluru City, Doddaballapur, Yelahanka New Town and West Bengaluru need to take the main road and go around Kamakshamma Layout and the Police Station Circle to reach the other side. BBMP is willing to fund the project and wants the Railways to execute it for them. A BBMP official, requesting anonymity, told TNIE, "Saving 3km in travel time in Bengaluru is equivalent to saving 10 times that distance. We have submitted our proposal to the Railways. We spend lakhs of rupees to improve the city's roads, but clearing bottlenecks like this costs the government much less and will ease traffic enormously," he said. With the city's growth now headed towards Bengaluru North, implementing it is absolutely vital, the official added. Asked about the long pending issue, a senior railway official said this specific RUB involves a few complications. "The RUB will need to pass below the railway electrical lines, which are crucial for running trains. The electric masts holding the wires need to be reshifted. Though we have built many RUBs in the city, this is a major project for us. BBMP wants a 9-metre wide bridge with two concrete boxes in it," the official explained. The Railways is comfortable about executing the job for a width of 5-6 metres, without affecting the electrical installations. "Anything beyond that width will involve heavy costs for shifting these posts and wires. The issue is pending with our traction distribution department," the source said.Despite repeated calls, Yelahanka MLA SR Vishwanth, who is known to have a keen interest in the project, as well as top BBMP engineers, did not respond.

Ma Anand Sheela hasn't given Priyanka Chopra permission for biopic, says Alia Bhatt has the necessary spunk to play her
I asked my sister, 'Did I look like her when I was young? Do you remember'? And she said, 'Yes, you do'. I feel she has the spunk in her that I had. Spunk is very necessary and it is very natural, it is not artificial, not cosmetic, it is genuine. I told her I do not give her permission to do [the] film because I have not chosen her... In Switzerland, we send legal notices very simply. I sent her an email which is accepted there as legal. No, never. Not even a courtesy letter that they received my notice but that's not an issue, maybe she never had the opportunity to meet me or make time to meet me and it is no big issue... not everybody has the time to meet me.
