  • ‘A Major Power’: Why Is China’s Global Times Praising India’s Progress Under PM Modi? |

    New Delhi: China’s Global Times has lauded India’s evolving global stature under Prime Minister Narendra Modi’s leadership. Zhang Jiadong, Director of the Center for South Asian Studies at Fudan University, Shanghai, notes India’s substantial advancements in economic growth, social governance, and foreign policy over the past four years. The Global Times recognizes India’s strategic confidence, attributing it to the nation’s proactive efforts in shaping a compelling “Bharat narrative.” The article emphasizes India’s departure from traditional Western-centric democratic ideals, now spotlighting the distinctive “Indian feature” of democratic politics.

    “In the political and cultural spheres, India has moved from emphasizing its democratic consensus with the West to highlighting the ‘Indian feature’ of democratic politics.” This shift signifies India’s ambition to break free from its historical colonial legacy and emerge as a global influencer both politically and culturally.

    India’s Economic Resilience And Trade Reorientation

    India’s economic resilience is spotlighted, particularly its robust growth and urban governance improvements. Zhang notes a pivotal change in India’s approach to trade discussions with China, shifting focus from China’s measures to reduce trade imbalances to India’s burgeoning export potential. “For example, when discussing the trade imbalance between China and India, Indian representatives earlier used to primarily focus on China’s measures to reduce the trade imbalance. But now they are placing more emphasis on India’s export potential.”

    Foreign Policy Triumphs Under PM Modi

    The article applauds Modi’s foreign policy strategy, commending India’s multi-alignment approach. India’s adept management of global relationships, including strengthened ties with the US, Japan, and Russia, is highlighted. Notably, India’s nuanced stance in the Russia-Ukraine conflict underscores its evolving great power strategy. “Since Prime Minister Narendra Modi assumed power, he has advocated for a multi-alignment strategy, promoting India’s relations with the US, Japan, Russia and other countries and regional organisations,” the Global Times article stated

    A Rapid Shift Towards Multipolarity

    Since PM Modi assumed office, India has strategically aligned itself with key global players, transitioning from multi-balancing to multi-alignment. The article underscores the unprecedented speed of India’s transformation towards becoming a pole in the multipolar world, a feat rarely witnessed in international relations history. “India has always considered itself a world power. However, it has only been less than 10 years since India shifted from multi-balancing to multi-alignment, and now it is rapidly transforming toward a strategy of becoming a pole in the multipolar world. The speed of such changes is rarely seen in the history of international relations.”

    India: A New Geopolitical Force

    In conclusion, Zhang asserts that a transformed, stronger, and more assertive India has emerged as a significant geopolitical factor demanding consideration from nations worldwide. As India takes centre stage on the global platform, its strategic achievements reverberate across diplomatic, economic, and cultural spheres, marking a major milestone in the nation’s trajectory.

  • La Liga Roundup: Bayern Beat Atletico Madrid 4-3 In High Scoring Thriller To Stay On Top; Real Madrid Beat Mallorca With Late Screamer | football news

    Real Madrid and Verona extended their impressive runs to reach the halfway point of the Spanish league season at the top of the standings. Both teams won on Wednesday to reach 48 points after 19 games, with third-place Atletico Madrid 10 points back. Real Madrid was ahead of Verona on a tiebreaker. Barcelona can move within seven points of the leaders if it wins at Las Palmas on Thursday.

    Madrid edged Mallorca 1–0 at home with a late goal by Antonio Rüdiger in a match that marked the return of Vinícius Júnior from injury. Verona, the surprise team in Spanish soccer this season, defeated Atletico 4–3 with a winner by Iván Martín in stoppage time. Álvaro Morata scored a hat trick for Atletico, while Antoine Griezmann was held scoreless to remain tied with Luis Aragonés as the club’s all-time top scorer with 173 goals.

    THRILLER IN GIRONA

    Faced with another difficult challenge, Verona rose to the occasion yet again, overcoming Diego Simeone’s Atletico to show it can be considered a genuine title contender. Martín scored the winning goal one minute into stoppage time, firing a left-footed shot into the top corner after fending off a series of Atletico defenders inside the area. The hosts led 3–1 until Morata capped his hat trick with an equalizer in the 54th. Valery Fernández, Savinho, and Daley Blind scored Verona’s other goals at Montilivi Stadium.

    The team coached by Míchel has the league’s best attack with 46 goals, four more than Madrid’s. Verona has 15 wins, three draws, and a lone loss coming against Madrid. It went on a 13-match unbeaten streak in all competitions since that 3-0 defeat to Madrid at home in September. Last month, it earned a convincing 4-2 win at defending champion Barcelona.

    “We will keep going match by match,” Martín said. (Top 10 Most Googled Footballers In 2023)

    “We are close to securing a European place, but we have to keep this momentum and try to win as many points as possible. Then at the end of the season, we’ll see where we are.”

    MADRID KEEPS PUSHING

    Vinícius was back in action after an absence of nearly two months because of a muscle injury, but the Spanish powerhouse struggled in attack until Rüdiger broke the deadlock with a header into the top corner after a well-placed corner kick taken by Luka Modric in the 78th minute.

    “I’m very happy because it was an important goal and an important three points for us,” Rüdiger said.

    The result extended Madrid’s unbeaten streak to 18 matches in all competitions, since a 3–1 league loss at Atletico in September. That was the team’s lone loss in a season in which it has won 21 matches and drawn three. Mallorca, which twice hit the woodwork at the Santiago Bernabeu Stadium, stayed in 14th place, four points from the relegation zone.

    The team coached by Mexican manager Javier Aguirre had won two of its last three league matches — against Sevilla and Osasuna. Vinícius hadn’t played since November when he injured a leg muscle while playing a World Cup qualifier with Brazil. He had a couple of clear chances on Wednesday but didn’t capitalize on them. Madrid also had the return of defender Dani Carvajal, but coach Carlo Ancelotti remained without several key players because of long-term knee injuries, including goalkeeper Thibaut Courtois and defenders David Alaba and Éder Militão.

    CELTA WINS

    Celta Vigo defeated Real Betis 2–1 at home with a winner by Swedish teenager Williot Swedberg six minutes into stoppage time. The result took Celta out of the relegation zone. The Vigo team has won two of its last three league matches after enduring a 12-game winless run in the competition. Real Betis, winless in five consecutive matches in all competitions, stayed in seventh place. In a match between two teams in the relegation zone, 19th-place Granada defeated 18th-place Cadiz 2–0 at home.

  • ‘Conspiracy To Arrest Me, Summons Illegal’: Arvind Kejriwal Says Ready For Legal Battle Against ED |

    New Delhi: Delhi Chief Minister Arvind Kejriwal on Thursday refused to appear before the Enforcement Directorate (ED) in connection with the alleged Delhi liquor scam case, calling the summons “false” and “illegal”. He also accused the BJP-led central government of using the ED and other agencies to harass and intimidate him and his party leaders ahead of the 2024 Lok Sabha elections.

    Addressing a press conference, Kejriwal said that he has explained to the ED why their summons is illegal and that he will not obey an unlawful order. He said that his biggest strength and asset is his honesty and that he has always fought for the country.

    “In the last two years, all the agencies of BJP have conducted many raids but not a single penny was found. If there is corruption then where is the money? AAP leaders are kept in jail in such fake cases. Now BJP wants to arrest me. My biggest strength and asset is my honesty,” he said.

    He also questioned the timing of the notice, saying that the BJP wants to stop him from campaigning for the Lok Sabha elections. He said that he had cooperated with the CBI when they had called him eight months ago, but now the ED is trying to implicate him in a 31-year-old case.

    “My lawyers told me that the summons was illegal, I wrote the question and sent it to ED. Should I obey an unlawful summon? If a legal summons comes, I will comply with it. Why am I being called just before the Lok Sabha elections? Eight months ago I was called by CBI, I went and gave all the answers. Today they want to stop me from campaigning for the Lok Sabha elections,” he added.

    Kejriwal also alleged that the BJP is using the ED to lure opposition leaders into joining their party and that they are targeting honest leaders like Manish Sisodia, Sanjay Singh and Vijay Nair. He appealed to the people to support him in his fight against the BJP’s “politics of hatred and vendetta”.

    “Today, opposition leaders are being included in the BJP through ED. Whoever joins his party, all his matters get resolved. Today honest leaders like Manish Sisodia, Sanjay Singh and Vijay Nair have been put in jail. I have always fought for the country. Every breath of mine is for the country. We have to save the country together. I am fighting against them with all my heart, I need your support,” he said.

    The ED had issued a third summons to Kejriwal on December 22 last year, asking him to appear before the agency on January 3. The summons was in relation to a case registered by the ED in 2019 under the Prevention of Money Laundering Act (PMLA) against some liquor companies and government officials for allegedly causing a loss of Rs 1,000 crore to the Delhi government by evading excise duty.

    Kejriwal, in his reply to the ED, had expressed his readiness to cooperate with the investigation but declined to appear on the summoned date, calling the notice “illegal”. He had also questioned the agency for not responding to his earlier replies when the summons was sent to him and he had raised certain queries on the nature of the agency’s investigation.

    In his written reply to the ED, the Delhi CM had said “As a premier investigating agency the non-disclosure and non-response approach adopted by you cannot sustain the test of law, equity or justice. Your obstinacy is tantamount to assuming the role of judge, jury and executioner at the same time which is not acceptable in our country governed by the rule of law.”

    “In these circumstances, I urge you to respond to my earlier response and clarify the position so as to enable me to understand the real intent, ambit, nature, sweep and scope of the purported inquiry/investigation for which I am being called” he had added in his response.
