A 29-year-old man from Delhi was arrested for allegedly stalking and harassing a journalist in Noida's Film City earlier this week. Police arrested the accused with the help of CCTV footage and other technical evidence. He was later produced before a court and remanded to judicial custody. According to The Times of India, the incident took place on Wednesday morning near Express Tower in Film City while the journalist was travelling to work in an autorickshaw. In her complaint, the journalist stated that the man rode alongside the auto, made obscene gestures, and passed lewd remarks. Realising that he was deliberately following her, she tried to record the incident on her phone. Although the biker sped away, she managed to capture a video before approaching the Sector 20 police station.

The Banda Press Trust has urged the inclusion of journalists in the Rajya Sabha and State Legislative Councils, arguing that media professionals deserve elected representatives to raise issues concerning the fraternity in legislative forums. Speaking on the demand, Banda Press Trust President and senior journalist Anil Kumar Tiwari said journalists, often described as the fourth pillar of democracy, merit institutional representation similar to teachers, graduates and local bodies, which already have designated constituencies in Legislative Council elections. "When all other sections of society have their own representatives, why shouldn't journalists have representation in the House?" Tiwari asked. He noted that while teachers, graduates and local bodies elect members to Legislative Councils to represent their interests, journalists currently lack any constitutional or statutory mechanism to voice concerns related to their profession. Tiwari emphasized that journalists play a cr

Equity inflows at $1.6 billion account for 61 percent of July's total, reversing four consecutive months of selling, with analysts attributing the turnaround to a stable rupee, fading semiconductor-trade momentum in North Asia, and improving domestic macroeconomic indicators.

R. Rajagopal grew up in a house with no idols on the walls. Instead there was Nehru, Gandhi, Patel; his father a Gandhian, his grandfather imprisoned by the British for his role in the INA in Malaya. It was a household built on an inherited certainty: that the Republic, whatever its flaws, stood behind its citizens. That certainty broke this year. When Rajagopal, veteran journalist, former Editor of The Telegraph from 2016 to 2023, discovered his name had been deleted from West Bengal's electoral roll, his passport renewal stalled with it. No rejection. No explanation. Just silence, for nearly 100 days. "I was in shock," he says. "I can't use any clinical term for it, but I never expected my country to do this. I had absolute faith that the Republic would protect me. Not only did they not protect me, they abandoned me." It is a striking admission from someone who spent three decades on the other side of the notebook, asking public institutions to explain themselves. In this con
