UK enforces digital travel system, mandatory eVisas for Indians
New rules in force from Wednesday will see the UK transition to a digital transit system, including mandatory eVisas for Indian travellers and Electronic Travel Authorisation (ETA) for non-visa requiring visitors. The new procedure will replace paper-based visa stickers as part of a phased programme over recent years. While the new system will still involve a physical visit to the application centre for biometric registration, it will do away with the need to leave behind the passport document during the processing period. "I'd urge anyone wanting to travel to the UK to ensure they are travel-ready and have the right permission, to make their journey much smoother," said Mike Tapp, UK Minister for Migration and Citizenship. It will be mandatory for visitors to the UK to have obtained digital permission to travel, which means airlines can prevent passengers from boarding planes if they do not have an eVisa, ETA or other valid documentation. The UK government had launched the eVisa .

11,790 MHz telecom spectrum available for auction valued at ₹2.1 trn
The entire 11,790 MHz of spectrum recommended to be put up for auction would be valued at around Rs 2.1 lakh crore at the reserve price if fully taken up, sources said after telecom regulator TRAI's suggestions on the modalities for bidding of radiowaves. Sources further said that overall, the spectrum is 19 per cent cheaper than prices recommended in 2022. According to sources, if the entire spectrum - 11,790 MHz - is assigned in the auction, it would be worth Rs 2.1 lakh crore at the base or reserve price. The Telecom Regulatory Authority of India (Trai) on Tuesday recommended auctioning the entire available radiowave spectrum, while proposing lower entry barriers for new players and a uniform 35 per cent spectrum cap to safeguard competition in the telecom sector. While urging the Department of Telecommunications (DoT) to reclaim spectrum held by telecom companies undergoing insolvency, Trai proposed halving the net worth criteria for new entrants from Rs 100 crore to Rs 50 cror

Benchmarks pare gains in choppy trade as US duty move hits sentiment
Benchmark equity indices Sensex and Nifty pared early sharp gains to close marginally higher in a volatile session on Wednesday as the US imposing 126 per cent import duties on Indian solar goods dampened investor sentiment and triggered profit-taking. Retreating around 674 points from the day's high, the 30-share BSE Sensex finally ended 50.15 points or 0.06 per cent higher at 82,276.07. During the day, it jumped 731.99 points or 0.89 per cent to a high of 82,957.91. The 50-share NSE Nifty went up by 57.85 points or 0.23 per cent to settle at 25,482.50. It hit a high of 25,652.60 during the day, up by around 228 points from the last close.

The corporate affairs ministry will introduce a three-month compliance facilitation scheme for companies to submit their pending filings with reduced fees, as well as condone the delays. The scheme, which will be operational from April 15 to July 15, comes after representations from various stakeholders seeking more time for making the filings.

India sustains 7-7.5% growth; Bengal should go maritime: EAC's Sanyal
Sanjeev Sanyal, Member of the Economic Advisory Council to the Prime Minister, on Wednesday said that India has managed to sustain growth of 7-7.5 per cent while maintaining macroeconomic stability despite global uncertainties, while asserting that sequential growth with stability is key to achieving the goal of a "Vikshit Bharat". Sanyal also said that West Bengal should reposition itself as a maritime state and consider setting up a large port. Addressing a special session on 'India's Growth Story Navigating Global Challenges' organised by the Merchants' Chamber of Commerce & Industry (MCCI), Sanyal said it was a cliche to describe the present as uniquely uncertain, noting that the world had navigated crises such as the global financial meltdown and COVID-19 earlier as well. He said India's macroeconomic parameters remain "in good shape", citing lower inflation, fiscal balance and a relatively contained debt-to-GDP ratio.

India's sugar production has been revised down 5.57 per cent to 32.40 million tonne for the 2025-26 marketing year, industry body ISMA said on Wednesday, citing lower yields in top producers Maharashtra and Uttar Pradesh.

Agri Minister Shivraj Chouhan pitches for DBT of fertiliser subsidy
Union Agriculture Minister Shivraj Singh Chouhan on Wednesday pitched for transferring the central government's Rs 1.7 lakh crore annual fertiliser subsidy to farmers' bank accounts through Direct Benefit Transfer (DBT), saying it would give them the freedom to choose which fertilisers to buy and in what quantities. Addressing the Pusa Krishi Vigyan Mela at the Indian Agricultural Research Institute (IARI) campus here, Chouhan said a bag of urea that actually costs Rs 2,400 reaches farmers at just Rs 265-270 because of the subsidy the central government absorbs. "If such a large subsidy is transferred directly to farmers' accounts through DBT, farmers will be able to decide which fertilisers to purchase and in what quantities. This system will ensure that the actual beneficiary of the subsidy is the farmer who applies the fertiliser to the fields," he said. Currently, fertiliser subsidies in India are primarily transferred to companies rather than directly to farmers. Though the ...

SC resumes final hearing on pleas related to retrospective EC to projects
The Supreme Court on Wednesday resumed hearing on a batch of pleas relating to grant of retrospective environmental clearance (EC) by the Centre and other authorities to projects found violating environmental norms on payment of heavy penalties. On November 18 last year, a three-judge bench headed by the then Chief Justice of India (CJI) B R Gavai reversed by a majority of 2:1 its own verdict by an interim order and paved the way for retrospective environmental clearance to projects found violating environmental norms, saying that otherwise "thousands of crores of rupees would go in waste". The top court had held that numerous vital public projects constructed with nearly Rs 20,000 of the public exchequer money would be demolished if the May 16, 2025, verdict, which barred the Centre from granting retrospective environmental clearance to projects, was not recalled. It had ordered a fresh hearing on the pleas. A three-judge bench comprising CJI Surya Kant and Justices Joymalya Bagch

Draft I-T forms seek tenant-landlord disclosure for claiming tax deduction
The government has come out with draft income tax forms that seek disclosure of tenant-landlord relationship for claiming I-T deductions and increased responsibility of auditors and companies for tax credit claims on foreign income. The draft forms also propose to entrust auditors with greater responsibility for checking PAN duplication and tax liability arising out of adverse audit observation. The new Income Tax Act, 2025, which replaces the six-decade-old law, will come into effect from April 1, 2026. The government has circulated draft Rules and Forms for stakeholder consultation. The final Rules and Forms will be notified next month.

IND vs ZIM: India need to rethink about team composition, says Ravi Shastri
Former India coach Ravi Shastri considers the defeat against South Africa in the Super 8s as a blessing in disguise and feels the "shakeup" was much needed for the defending champions to "reflect and reset" going into the business end of the T20 World Cup. India will be desperate to make a strong comeback against Zimbabwe here on Thursday after the heavy 76-run defeat at the hands of South Africa in their Super 8 opener in Ahmedabad on Sunday. The loss against the Proteas, incidentally, was India's first defeat after 12 successive victories across the last two editions of the T20 World Cup. "You win 12 matches on the trot, there's bound to be an off day. And I'm glad it has come early. It might just be the shakeup India needed," Shastri told on the latest episode of The ICC Review.

States sue Trump admin over changes to childhood vaccine recommendations
More than a dozen states have sued the Trump administration over its rollback of vaccine recommendations for children, calling the move an illegal threat to public health. The states on Tuesday argue that the Centres for Disease Control and Prevention put children's lives at risk when it announced last month that it would stop recommending all children get immunised against the flu, rotavirus, hepatitis A, hepatitis B, some forms of meningitis and RSV. Under the new guidance, which was met with criticism from medical experts, protections against those diseases are recommended only for certain groups deemed high risk or when doctors recommend them in what's called "shared decision-making." The new vaccine recommendations ignore long-standing medical guidance and will make states have to spend more to protect against outbreaks, the states, including Arizona and California, said.

However, the court in its order dated February 19 said the petitioner cannot be restrained from publishing books or selling them in the open market if it is not committing any violation of the provisions of the Uttar Pradesh Course Books Act.

Venezuela releases over 3,200 people since amnesty law took effect
A special commission of Venezuela's National Assembly announced Tuesday that over 3,200 people have been fully released since the amnesty law took effect four days ago. This group includes both former detainees and those previously under house arrest or other restrictive measures. Lawmaker Jorge Arreaza, who leads the commission overseeing the amnesty law, said in a news conference that authorities have already received 4,203 applications for the program. He said that after evaluating these requests, 3,052 people previously under house arrest or other restrictive measures have been granted full freedom. Additionally, another 179 individuals who were in prison have also been released. In the days after the Jan 3 capture of then-President Nicolas Maduro, Rodriguez's government announced it would release a significant number of prisoners.

Asian shares rise; Japan benchmark hits record on optimism about AI
Asian shares mostly rose in Wednesday morning trading, with Japan's benchmark hitting a record high, as investors were cheered by an overnight Wall Street rally that seemed to reflect optimism about the artificial-intelligence boom. Japan's benchmark surged 1.3% to 58,081.62. That came despite China's move the previous day to restrict exports to 40 Japanese companies and organisations it says are contributing to Japan's "remilitarisation". The reaction was varied with the prices of some listed companies rising, like Subaru Corp and Mitsubishi Materials Corp, while others slipped, including Eneos Corp and Sumitomo Heavy Industries. Analysts said the declining yen worked to boost export shares, such as Honda Motor Co and Panasonic Corp. The US dollar slipped to 155.78 Japanese yen from 155.83 yen. The dollar traded close to 160 yen levels several months ago. The euro cost $1.1784, up from $1.1779. Australia's S&P/ASX 200 jumped 1.1% to 9,122.50. South Korea's Kospi surged 1.7% to ...

Canada approves latest Gulfstream business jets after Trump tariff threat
Canadian regulators have approved Gulfstream G700 and G800 business jets in a move that comes weeks after new tariff threats from US President Donald Trump over the planes' status in Canada. A Transport Canada database shows that it certified the American company's latest private planes on Monday, roughly a week after green-lighting two older Gulfstream models. Marie-Justine Torres, a spokeswoman for Canada's transport minister, confirmed on Tuesday that the certification was granted by Transport Canada. Trump threatened last month to decertify and place tariffs on all Canadian-built planes unless the government approved Gulfstream business jets. The go-ahead from Transport Canada came despite deicing concerns flagged by the US Federal Aviation Administration, which granted the G700 and G800 conditional certification in 2024.

US concerned over strikes hitting its Russia oil interests: Ukrainian envoy
The US State Department has expressed its displeasure about Ukraine's recent attacks on the Russian port of Novorossiysk on the Black Sea that have impacted US oil interests in Kazakhstan, Kyiv's chief envoy to Washington said on Tuesday. Ambassador Olga Stefanishyna noted the US concern on the fourth anniversary of Russia's brutal invasion of Ukraine. "This reach-out was not related to encouraging Ukraine from refraining to attack Russian military and energy infrastructure. It was related to the very fact that American economic interest was affected there," Stefanishyna told reporters in Washington. "It did happen, and we have taken the note." The State Department did not immediately respond to a request for comment. The Caspian Pipeline Consortium operates a pipeline from the Caspian coast in northwest Kazakhstan to the Novorossiysk port.

IRS can share immigrants' taxpayer data with ICE, says US appeals court
A Washington, DC, federal court on Tuesday rejected a request from an immigrant rights group to temporarily block the IRS from sharing certain taxpayer data that could make it easier to identify and deport people who are in the US illegally. A three-judge panel for the US Court of Appeals for the DC Circuit declined to issue a preliminary injunction for the immigrants' rights group, Centro de Trabajadores Unidos, and other nonprofits that are suing the federal government over the data-sharing agreement signed last April by Treasury Secretary Scott Bessent and Homeland Security Secretary Kristi Noem. The agreement allows US Immigration and Customs Enforcement to submit names and addresses of immigrants inside the US illegally to the IRS for cross-verification against tax records. In declining the preliminary injunction request, Judge Harry T Edwards wrote that the nonprofit groups "are unlikely to succeed on the merits of their claim," since the information the agencies are sharing .

Iranians worry over US military buildup as last-chance round of talks nears
As the United States assembles its greatest military firepower in decades in the Middle East, Iranians are warily awaiting the next round of talks with the US in Geneva this week - negotiations that many see as a last chance for their ruling theocracy to strike a deal with US President Donald Trump. Some say the situation feels hopeless. Battered by decades of sanctions, heightened by Trump's 2018 decision to withdraw from Tehran's nuclear deal with world powers, Iranians also just suffered through the bloodiest crackdown on dissent in the country's modern history. In January, security forces killed thousands of people and detained tens of thousands more. Still, Iran heads into the Thursday talks "with a determination to achieve a fair and equitable deal-in the shortest possible time," Foreign Minister Abbas Araghchi posted Tuesday on X.

US embassy to offer consular services at Israeli settlement in West Bank
The US embassy in Jerusalem plans to offer consular services for the first time at an Israeli settlement in the occupied West Bank. A statement posted Wednesday to the US embassy's account on the social platform X said consular officers "will be providing routine passport services" to US citizens Friday in the West Bank settlement of Efrat. The embassy said a similar outreach service is planned in the coming months in the Israeli settlement of Beitar Illit, calling the services part of its "efforts to reach all Americans." The US embassy has previously provided consular services in Ramallah and other Palestinian cities in the West Bank.

Trump admin sues New Jersey over restrictions on immigration arrests
The Trump administration is suing New Jersey over a state order that prohibits federal immigration agents from making arrests in nonpublic areas of state property, such as correctional facilities and courthouses. The Justice Department lawsuit, filed Monday in federal court in Trenton, challenges Gov Mikie Sherrill's February 11 executive order, which also bars the use of state property as a staging or processing area for immigration enforcement. Sherrill, a Democrat who took office January 20, "insists on harbouring criminal offenders from federal law enforcement," the lawsuit said, accusing her of attempting to obstruct federal law enforcement and thwart President Donald Trump's immigration crackdown. Sherrill's executive order "poses an intolerable obstacle" to immigration enforcement and "directly regulates and discriminates" against the federal government, said the lawsuit, which misspelled her name as "Sherill."

Russia opens criminal probe against Telegram app founder Pavel Durov
Pavel Durov, the founder of the Telegram messaging app, said Tuesday that the Russian government had opened a criminal investigation against him on charges of "aiding terrorism." Durov, who was born and began his career in Russia, accused Moscow of fabricating pretexts to restrict access by Russians to the Telegram service as part of an attempt to "suppress the right to privacy and free speech." "A sad spectacle of a state afraid of its own people," Durov wrote on social media. Russian media outlets had begun circulating unconfirmed reports earlier in the day that a criminal investigation had been opened against Durov by Russia's Federal Security Service, or FSB. It comes two weeks after Russia's communications watchdog, Roskomnadzor, said it was restricting the Telegram app, accusing the company of refusing to abide by Russian law.

Louvre Museum director resigns in wake of October's theft, security lapses
The Louvre Museum's director resigned Tuesday after months of pressure following the October theft of the French crown jewels, as the world's most visited museum faced widening scrutiny over security failures, labour unrest and a suspected ticket fraud scheme. Laurence des Cars quit after a punishing year for the former royal palace - the high-profile jewels heist from the Apollo Gallery, a mid-February burst pipe near the "Mona Lisa," water leaks damaging priceless books, staff walkouts and a wildcat strike over overcrowding and understaffing. The landmark has faced a widening narrative of an institution spiralling out of control. And that pressure deepened in recent weeks when French authorities revealed a suspected decade-long ticket fraud operation linked to the museum that investigators say may have cost the Louvre 10 million euros (USD 11.8 million).

Hegseth warns Anthropic to let military use firm's AI tech as it sees fit

Anthropic makes the chatbot Claude and is the last of its peers to not supply its technology to a new US military internal network. CEO Dario Amodei repeatedly has made clear his ethical concerns about unchecked government use of AI, including the dangers of fully autonomous armed drones and of AI-assisted mass surveillance that could track dissent. Defence officials warned they could designate Anthropic a supply chain risk or use the Defence Production Act to essentially give the military more authority to use its products even if it doesn't approve of how they are used, according to the person familiar with the meeting and a senior Pentagon official, who both were not authorised to comment publicly and spoke on condition of ...

India, Israel to upgrade ties to special strategic level during PM's visit
India and Israel's relations will be upgraded to a "special strategic partnership" during Prime Minister Narendra Modi's visit, marking a "significant leap ahead" similar to Jerusalem's ties with countries such as the US and Germany, sources said here Tuesday.

The India-Israel relationship was elevated to the level of strategic partnership during Modi's first visit to that country in July 2017. The upgraded "special strategic partnership" agreement will allow for a further developed stage of ties that will lead to joint development of advanced defence systems and an understanding to stand by each other in times of need.
