The Catch Up: 8 May - 3 Things

18 hours ago

—

This is the Catch Up on 3 things by The Indian Express and I am Ichha Sharma Today is the 8th of May and here are today's headlines A day after India struck Pakistan terror camps, during a special briefing on Operation Sindoor the government said today that the “Pahalgam attack was the first escalation,”. Foreign Secretary Vikram Misri, Colonel Sofiya Qureshi and Wing Commander Vyomika Singh addressed the media again on a day India neutralised an air defence system in Lahore. This comes on a day of fast-paced developments after India asked OTT platforms, media streaming platforms and intermediaries operating in India to discontinue the web-series, films, songs, podcasts and other streaming media content originating from Pakistan. Earlier in the day, Defence Minister Rajnath Singh warned that those trying to test India’s patience should be ready to face ‘quality action’ like yesterday’s in a reference to Operation Sindoor. The day started with India’s reveal that Indian Armed Forces neutralised an air defence system in Lahore after Pakistan attempted overnight strikes on multiple Indian cities. India said today that an “Air Defence system at Lahore” is “reliably learnt” to have been “neutralised” after Pakistan “attempted to engage a number of military targets in Northern and Western India”. “Today morning Indian Armed Forces targeted Air Defence Radars and systems at a number of locations in Pakistan. Indian response has been in the same domain with same intensity as Pakistan. It has been reliably learnt that an Air Defence system at Lahore has been neutralised,” a Press Information Bureau statement read. Earlier in the day, sources had told The Indian Express that any military target in Lahore or other parts of Pakistan will only be hit in response to any offensive action from their side. The Border Security Force (BSF) troops in Punjab’s Ferozepur sector shot dead an unidentified Pakistani intruder when he tried to enter the Indian territory on the intervening night last night and today, said officials. The body has been handed to the police, and investigations are going on to ascertain his identity. According to officials, the incident occurred near Gate No. 207 at the Lakha Singhwala Hithar BSF checkpost in the Mamdot sector of the Ferozepur district, one of the six border districts in Punjab. Built as a joint venture between the Defence Research and Development Organisation (DRDO) and Russia’s NPO Mashinostroyeniya, the BrahMos supersonic cruise missiles form a crucial part of India’s arsenal, with Uttar Pradesh set to be the centre of its production. On May 11, Defence Minister Rajnath Singh will inaugurate a BrahMos missile manufacturing unit in Lucknow whose target is to produce 80 to 100 missiles annually. The unit, whose foundation stone was laid in 2021, is part of a Defence Industrial Corridor that Prime Minister Narendra Modi had announced in 2018 during the global investors’ summit. Ukraine’s parliament voted today in favour of ratifying a minerals deal signed with the United States, an agreement Kyiv hopes will secure future military assistance from Washington in its fight to repel Russian troops. Despite misgivings by some Ukrainian lawmakers over whether the government had provided them with all the information on the deal and over some of its compromises, 338 voted in favour of ratifying the agreement, with none against. Some lawmakers had raised concerns over the lack of detail of some of the deal’s provisions, such as how an envisaged investment fund for Ukraine’s reconstruction would be governed or how any contributions would be made.…

एक गणतंत्र में संविधान के ज़रिये सरकार की शक्ति पर रोक लगायी जाती है, पर भारत में हम देखते हैं कि अक्सर होता इससे ठीक उल्टा है। सरकार ही भारतीय नागरिकों पर इतनी रोक लगाती है कि पूछो ही मत। और हम नागरिकों को भी इसकी इतनी आदत पड़ चुकी है कि हम पूछते भी नहीं कि ये नियम हम पर क्यों लगाए जा रहे हैं। प्रणय ने तो बेकार नियमों के इस जाल को सरकार का चंगुल कहा है। खैर, अच्छी बात ये है कि अब सरकार ने भी इस चंगुल को पहचाना है और इसके लिए डिरेगुलेशन कमिशन की घोषणा भी हुई है, पर ये डिरेगुलेशन कैसा होना चाहिए? या प्रणय के शब्दों में कहे तो इस चंगुलतोड़ का क्या फ्रेमवर्क होना चाहिए? इसी पर होगी आज की चर्चा। We discuss: * Reducing Government Control * Why do we have so much regulation? * There are no limits on regulation * Govt should have to present a deregulation statement to the Legislative * Steering function should be separated from Rowing function * Open up service delivery to private players * Cost-benefit analysis before introducing new restrictions * Why do Indian firms remain small? * How to deregulate Firms? * How to deregulate our Cities? * Deregulating human capital Also, please note that Puliyabaazi is now available on Youtube with video.

1 day ago

In the early hours of Wednesday, in what is being described as the most expansive attack on terror originating from Pakistan, Indian armed forces targeted and destroyed nine terror sites across Pakistan and Pakistan-occupied Kashmir. These included the headquarters of Lashkar-e-Taiba and Jaish-e-Mohammed.

The Catch Up: 7 May - 3 Things

1 day ago

—

This is the Catch Up on 3 Things by The Indian Express and I am Ichha Sharma. Today is the 7th of May and here are the headlines. In a decisive military action, India launched "Operation Sindoor" in the early hours today, executing precision strikes on nine terrorist camps located in Pakistan and Pakistan-occupied Kashmir (PoK). This operation was a direct response to the April 22 Pahalgam terror attack, which resulted in the deaths of 26 Indian tourists. During a press briefing in New Delhi, Foreign Secretary Vikram Misri, Colonel Sofiya Qureshi, and Wing Commander Vyomika Singh detailed the operation's objectives and outcomes. They confirmed the destruction of camps associated with notorious terrorists Ajmal Kasab and David Headley. The strikes were meticulously planned to avoid civilian casualties, utilizing advanced weaponry and precision-guided munitions. Targets were carefully selected to dismantle terrorist infrastructure while sparing Pakistani military installations, underscoring India's intent to avoid escalation. Colonel Qureshi emphasised that the operation aimed to deliver justice to the victims of the Pahalgam attack and their families. Wing Commander Singh highlighted the use of "niche technology weapons" to ensure that only intended targets were neutralized, minimizing collateral damage. In the wake of the operation, Pakistan has condemned the strikes as an "act of war," claiming civilian casualties and asserting that Indian military aircraft were downed—a claim not corroborated by India. The situation has led to heightened tensions along the Line of Control, with reports of cross-border shelling and civilian casualties on both sides. The cross-border shelling by Pakistani forces has claimed at least nine civilians lives and 38 injured in Jammu and Kashmir today. The international community, including the United Nations, has expressed concern and urged both nations to exercise restraint to prevent further escalation. The ministries of IT and Information and Broadcasting are “constantly monitoring” content being uploaded to social media platforms for misleading content related to the aftermath of ‘Operation Sindoor’ to issue takedown orders, and have sensitised social media platforms to block any content that is unlawful, a senior government official told The Indian Express. Agencies and organisations which are in charge of India’s critical infrastructure, such as the Power Ministry, financial institutions including banks, and telecom operators are also on “high alert” after having faced a number of cyber attacks following the Pahalgam terror attack last month. “There have been some DDoS attacks on some infrastructure, but we have contained them. Now we are on high alert because such attempts will certainly be made,” the official said. A DDoS (Distributed Denial of Service) attack is a cyberattack where an attacker overwhelms a website, server, or network with malicious traffic from multiple sources, making it slow or inaccessible to legitimate users. India conducted a nationwide civil defence exercise, codenamed 'Operation Abhyas,' across 244 districts. This large-scale mock drill, organized by the Ministry of Home Affairs and coordinated by the National Disaster Management Authority, aimed to bolster emergency preparedness amid escalating tensions with Pakistan following the Pahalgam terror attack. The drills simulated various hostile scenarios, including air raids with siren activations, blackout procedures, urban fire emergencies, search and rescue operations, casualty evacuations, and the establishment of temporary hospitals. Major cities such as Delhi, Mumbai, Chennai, Kolkata, Hyderabad, and Pune participated, with specific activities like a 10-minute blackout observed in Haryana and siren activations in Delhi's 11 districts. Cardinals from around the world will begin casting their votes for a new pope under Michelangelo’s The Last Judgment as 133 cardinals would begin their secretive and centuries old ritual to elect the successor of Pope Francis, who passed away on April 21. The conclave to select the new pope will begin behind the closed doors of the Sistine Chapel today afternoon as cardinals from 70 countries will be secluded, their cellphones surrendered and airwaves around the Vatican jammed in order to find the next leader of the 1.4-billion-member Catholic Church. Ahead of the Papal Conclave, a few names have propped up who are being seen as favourites to succeed Pope Francis, namely Italian Cardinal Pietro Parolin, Filipino Cardinal Luis Antonio Tagle, Hungarian Cardinal Peter Erdo among others. The uncertainty over the level of support for any one cardinal amongst the 133 cardinal electors suggests that it is one of the most wide-open conclaves in history.…

IPL Prodigy, Roast Comedy & AI Popes | Cyrus Says AMA ft. Akash Mehta & Punit Pania - Cyrus Says

2 days ago

—

In this explosive AMA episode of Cyrus Says , Cyrus Broacha teams up once again with comedians Akash Mehta and Punit Pania for a hilariously chaotic deep-dive into the week’s strangest headlines, hottest takes, and the always unpredictable questions from the show's Discord community. The trio opens with a conversation about the tragic Pahalgam attack and whether Kashmir can ever be pitched as a honeymoon destination again. From there, they spiral into India-Pakistan tensions—with one listener suggesting a drinking water contest as a more peaceful resolution—and reflect on Warren Buffett’s grim warning about the dollar, debating if it’s finally time to switch to Monopoly money. Trump’s AI-generated image as the Pope sparks a discussion on whether artificial intelligence has achieved enlightenment or just a full-blown god complex. Meanwhile, cricket fans weigh in on the IPL’s newest sensation, Vaibhav Suryavanshi, and the controversy surrounding him, while gamers wonder if Rockstar could at least drop a GTA: Andheri Auto Rickshaw DLC to tide us over until GTA 6 finally drops. The episode also gets introspective, with questions about roast culture in Indian stand-up, the purpose of humor, and how comedians process the world beyond the cities they live in. Akash gives an update on his mysterious gym admirer, Punit reflects on how comedy evolves with age and consequence, and Cyrus addresses Dhoni’s non-retirement from IPL with just enough Bombay Gymkhana gossip to keep the conspiracy alive. It’s an hour of wit, weirdness, and wonderful questions—with no topic too wild or too sacred. See omnystudio.com/listener for privacy information.…
