  • Meta To Lift Ban On Word “Shaheed” After Year-Long Oversight Board Review |

    New Delhi: Meta platforms on Tuesday announced that it would lift its blanket ban on the word “shaheed,” which means “martyr” in English. This decision follows a year-long review by its oversight board, which concluded that the company’s approach to banning the word was “overbroad,” according to a report by Reuters.

    For years the company has faced criticism for its handling of content related to the Middle East. A 2021 study, which Meta itself commissioned found that its approach had a negative impact on the human rights of Palestinians and other Arabic-speaking users of its services.

    Hostilities between Israel and Hamas began in October and since then the criticism of the company has intensified. The oversight board funded by Meta but operating independently started its review last year because the word “shaheed” led to more content removals on the company’s platforms than any other single word or phrase.

    Meta, the parent company of Facebook and Instagram conducted a review in March and found that its rules on the word ”shaheed” were too broad. The review also revealed that the word has various meanings and the company’s rules led to the removal of content that did not praise violent actions.

    Meta acknowledged the findings of the review on Tuesday and said its tests showed that removing content when “shaheed” was “paired with otherwise violating content captures the most potentially harmful content without disproportionally impacting the voice”.

    The oversight board welcomed the change, saying Meta’s policy related to the word had led to the censoring of millions of people across its platforms. (With Reuters Input)

  • Why Hemant Soren’s Return May Foment Trouble For BJP In Jharkhand? |

    Hemant Soren, the Jharkhand Mukti Morcha (JMM) leader, has been released from jail on bail in the alleged land scam case. He is now set to reclaim the seat of power in Jharkhand, even though the assembly elections in the state are just a few months away. Following his release, there were discussions that Champai Soren would remain the Chief Minister until the elections while Hemant would focus on party work. However, Hemant’s move to become the Chief Minister has ended these speculations.

    On Wednesday, in a meeting held in the capital Ranchi, the JMM, Congress, and RJD unanimously agreed to make Hemant Soren the Chief Minister again. Following the party’s decision, Champai Soren resigned from his post, and Hemant Soren staked his claim to form the government. According to media reports, Champai Soren is reportedly unhappy with his removal, although no official statement has been released by him yet.

    The key question is why Champai Soren was not allowed to complete his term and why Hemant was in such a hurry to take the CM’s chair as soon as he was released from jail. This article delves into the reasons behind Hemant Soren’s quick move to reclaim power.

    Factions Forming Within the Party

    Just five days after his release from jail, Hemant Soren took control of Jharkhand’s power. Sources associated with JMM indicate that with assembly elections looming, two factions of power were emerging within the party. This could have potentially harmed the party’s prospects in the elections. To prevent this, Hemant decided to retain the CM’s chair himself.

    Strong Hold In Party

    Following the results of the Lok Sabha elections and Hemant Soren’s release, the Jharkhand Mukti Morcha is invigorated. The party believes that under Hemant’s leadership, they will break all victory records in the upcoming assembly elections. To avoid any pre-election mistakes, Hemant’s swift move to become CM sends a clear message within the party that he holds the reins of power.

    Sympathy Votes

    Having been absent from the election campaign during the Lok Sabha elections due to his arrest, Hemant Soren aims to become the face of the INDIA bloc in the assembly elections. Other parties within the grand alliance support this move, believing that Hemant’s leadership could attract sympathy votes. This is why preparations were swiftly made to reinstall him as Chief Minister shortly after his release. If Hemant faces jail time again, he could emulate Delhi Chief Minister Arvind Kejriwal, who continued to govern from jail.

    Potential Succession by His Wife

    Hemant Soren is aware that ongoing cases could result in his imprisonment again. If that happens, he could use his power as CM to appoint his wife, Kalpana Soren, as his successor. Kalpana has established herself as a prominent leader within the party, winning the assembly by-election and effectively leading JMM’s Lok Sabha campaign in Hemant’s absence. Should Hemant need to step down again, Kalpana is his likely choice to assume the role of Chief Minister so that the control of the party remains within the family.

    Alliance’s Trust in Hemant

    JMM’s allies in the INDIA Block believe that a majority in the state assembly can only be achieved by placing their trust in Hemant Soren. This confidence in his leadership has played a significant role in the decision to reinstall him as Chief Minister.

    Strategy To Counter BJP

    The BJP-led NDA has bagged 9 out of the 14 Lok Sabha seats in the recently concluded Lok Sabha elections. In the 2019 Lok Sabha polls, the NDA had bagged 12 seats. This time, it is believed that Hemant Soren’s imprisonment resulted in sympathy votes for the JMM-Congress alliance as it won three more seats compared to 2019. The return of Heman Soren clubbed with the oratory of Kalpana Soren is likely to brighten the ruling coalition’s prospects in the upcoming assembly polls and the road ahead won’t be easy for the BJP.

  • In Japan’s move to roll out new 3D portrait banknotes, focus on cashless transactions, strengthening economy |

    New Delhi: Japan has introduced new banknotes for the first time in two decades. This comes as the nation grapples with economic challenges, having recently lost its status as the world’s third-largest economy to Germany. The country, now in the throes of a recession, hopes that the new currency will help bolster its economy.

    The National Printing Bureau of Japan has developed a distinctive technology for banknotes, using printed patterns to produce holograms of portraits that change direction based on the viewing angle.

    New Banknotes’ Features

    On Wednesday, the Bank of Japan released the new notes into circulation, featuring advanced security technologies, including 3-D holograms. Prime Minister Fumio Kishida unveiled the new 10,000 yen, 5,000 yen, and 1,000 yen notes.

    He praised the anti-counterfeiting measures and expressed hope that the new notes would be well-received by the public.

    The introduction of these banknotes is seen as a step towards strengthening the Japanese economy. Despite the global shift towards cashless transactions, Bank of Japan Governor Kazuo Ueda stressed the importance of cash for secure payments anywhere and anytime. The new notes are expected to coexist with the existing ones, ensuring a smooth transition.

    Cashless Transactions On The Rise

    Japan has seen a significant increase in cashless transactions over the past decade. In 2023, 39% of consumer spending was conducted through cashless payments. Despite this trend, the government and the Bank of Japan remain hopeful that the new banknotes will provide a boost to the struggling economy.

    This is a developing story.

  • Hathras incident: NCW chief Rekha Sharma met the injured women, said- don’t run after Babas

    Hathras. 121 people died and many were injured in a stampede during a satsang organised in Hathras, UP. National Commission for Women (NCW) Chairperson Rekha Sharma visited the site of the Hathras stampede. During this, she met the injured women. The NCW chief has appealed to everyone not to run after such Babas.

    National Commission for Women Chairperson Rekha Sharma met the injured women admitted in the hospital. During this, Rekha Sharma made serious allegations against Baba Narayan Hari Sarkar and said that an FIR should be lodged against him immediately and he should be arrested. Talking to journalists, Rekha Sharma said that only three of the dead were men and the rest were women, this shows that there were only women in the entire crowd. Clearly, whoever this Baba was, he has done illegal work. He had asked for permission for 80 thousand people and gathered a crowd of more than 2 lakh and when such a big incident happened, that Baba ran away. I think an FIR should be lodged against him, he should be arrested immediately.

    Appeal to not run after Babas

    Rekha Sharma said, it should also be found out on whose orders all this was happening? Was it someone’s connivance or was there a plan behind it and why did the baba run away after so many people died? His servants also ran away, this is a matter of investigation. She told that as far as I have come to know, the baba’s servants did not allow even the administration people to come inside and neither did they allow anyone to take photos. These people had completely ignored the administration as well. She said that women will have to be taught not to run after such babas. The injured are being treated properly in the hospital.
