THE Q3 TUMBLE

That India’s GDP grew just 4.4 per cent in the third quarter (Q3) of 2022-23 compared to 5.2 per cent in the same quarter of the previous fiscal caught many by surprise.

WHEAT FEELS THE HEAT

LEFT'S HAND IN ALLIANCES

The results might have been different but for the alliance of the Left parties and Congress for the Tripura T assembly polls and the byelections for the Sagardighi assembly seat in West Bengal's Murshidabad district.

For a state formed on linguistic lines, it may come as a surprise that Gujarat took over six decades to make the teaching of its native language mandatory in elementary classes across all schools, irrespective of the medium of instruction or affiliation.

CAPITAL FETTERS

The arrest of Manish Sisodia, the most high-profile minister in Delhi chief minister Arvind Kejriwal's cabinet, is perhaps the biggest political crisis to hit the Aam Aadmi Party (AAP) since its inception in 2012. The Central Bureau of Investigation (CBI) arrested the Delhi deputy CM on February 26 for alleged corruption in the formulation and implementation of the now-scrapped liquor excise policy of 2021-22. The agency alleges that Sisodia, as excise minister, took \"arbitrary and unilateral decisions\" causing \"huge financial losses to the exchequer\" and benefiting private players.
