 Modi participated in  Sant Mirabai Janmotsav, a  program commemorating Mirabai’s  525th birth  anniversary,  and  issued  commemorative  stamps  and  coins  on the occasion.  Prime Minister Narendra Modi told the people of Mathura  on  Thursday that Braj Bhoomi was deprived of development by “those who  want  to  separate  India from its past,  who  are  indifferent to  Indian  culture and its spiritual  identity ”  and  “can’t do that”. abandon  the slave mentality even after  the  country gained independence’.  

 The Prime Minister, who offered prayers at  Shri Krishna Janmaboomi Mandir,  said in  a  meeting  that  “at  Azadi Ka Amrit Kaal, for the first time, we have come out of this slave  mentality”  and  “today ‘Today now  we have  Vishwanath Dham in  Kashi.” with  all its  splendor,  divinity and grandeur in the Mahakaal Mahalok of Ujjain, in Kedarnath we have  thousands  of devotees, and in Ayodhya the  day  of inauguration of Shri  Ram  temple has also  come.”  

 In this race  for  development, Modi said, Mathura and Vrindavan will not  be left  behind.  

 Modi participated in  Sant Mirabai Janmotsav, a  program commemorating Mirabai’s  525th birth  anniversary,  and  issued  commemorative  stamps  and  coins  on the occasion. UP Governor Anandiben Patel, Chief Minister Yogi Adityanath and Mathura MP Hema Malini were among those present. 

  Addressing the crowd, Modi said  that  when the country was going astray, Sants from  various  corners  stood up  to  bring  people  back  to their faith. “In the south,  in  Alvar sant and Nayanar sant, there  are  acharyas like Ramanujacharya.  To  the north  are  Tulsidas, Surdas, Kabirdas, Ravidas. In Punjab  there  was Guru Nanak and in  Bengal there was  Chaitanya Mahaprabhu.  They all  spoke different languages, had different  customs, but they  still  united  the country  by spreading faith and knowledge.  ”  

 “Mathura is a meeting place for many such movements. There is no place  more sacred  than Vrindavan, no village better than  Nandgaon  and no name as glorious as  Krishna.  It  is  a country  of literature, music and culture. Even  in  the  most difficult  times, this region  saved the country. But when the country  gained independence, this land did not receive  the recognition  it  should have  received,”  he said. 

  About  Mathura and its  origin  with Lord Krishna in mythological texts, he said,  “It  is not  an ordinary  place,  it  is the  abode  of Krishna. In every grain of  soil  there is Krishna. There  was  another reason why I  couldn’t wait  to visit this place. There is a connection  that  Mathura shares with Gujarat. Krishna went to Gujarat to build Dwarka. Mirabai  spent  the latter part of her life in Dwarka. This place is  where Bharat’s  recognition  is recorded. 

 Our Bharat has always  revered  Nari Shakti, and who understands  that better  than  the  Brajvasis. We take  the  name  Radha  for everything by saying Radhe Radhe. Mirabai  sets  an example for women,” he said.

The Reserve Bank of India (RBI) chief warns lenders against relying too heavily on algorithms, credit scoring and model-based lending, especially at a time when close collaboration with fintech companies makes it easier to offer innovative products and services.

Reserve Bank of India (RBI) Governor Shaktikanta Das has warned banks and NBFCs against relying too much on algorithms, credit scoring and model-based lending, especially during these times, as increasing collaboration with fintech companies facilitates the delivery of innovative products and services.

“Banks (RBI) and NBFCs need to be careful of relying solely on pre-defined algorithms as defaults for operations,” Mr. Das commented at the FIBAC 2023 conference co-organized by the Federation of Indian Chambers of Commerce and Industry and IBA in Mumbai on Wednesday. “These models need to be robust and tested and retested periodically. They may need to be recalibrated and calibrated.” “Based on the changing features of the financial ecosystem,” he added.

Reducing registration”

He stressed that it is important to “be aware of any excessive accumulation of risks in the system due to information gaps in these models, which may lead to a relaxation of issued insurance standards.”

He urged banks and non-banking financial companies to take precautionary measures, and said credit portfolio expansion and pricing should be in line with expected risks. “Banks and non-banking financial companies also need to strengthen their asset and liability management. They can pay more attention to their debt. In some cases, we see an increasing reliance on large, high-cost, short-term deposits, while loan terms, both for personal and corporate loans, are lengthening, emphasizing the risk of contagion.

The ousted leader of OpenAI, and creator of ChatGPT, is returning to the company that fired him last weekend, the culmination of a days-long power struggle that has rocked the technology and revenue industries. It attracted a lot of criticism because it focused on conflicts over how to safely build man-made structures. Intelligence.

“We have reached an agreement in principle for Sam Altman to return to OpenAI as CEO with a new board of directors,” San Francisco-based OpenAI said in a statement on Tuesday. »

The board that replaces the one that fired Mr. Altman on Friday will be chaired by former Salesforce co-CEO Bret Taylor, who was also chairman of Twitter before it was acquired by Elon Musk last year. Other members will be former US Treasury Secretary Larry Summers and Quora CEO Adam D’Angelo.

OpenAI’s previous board, including Mr. D’Angelo, refused to give a specific reason for firing Mr. Altman, leading to a weekend-long infighting within the company and the imposition of a growing outside force of investors in the startups.

The chaos also deepened rifts between Altman — who has become the face of AI’s rapid commercialization since ChatGPT emerged a year ago — and members of the company’s board of directors. As he progresses. .

Microsoft, which has invested billions of dollars in OpenAI and owns the rights to the existing technology, quickly hired Mr. Altman on Monday, along with another co-founder and former president, Greg Brockman, who resigned in protest after his firing. By Altman. This led to the threat of an exodus of almost all of the startup’s 770 employees, who signed a letter calling for the resignation of the board and the return of Mr. Altman. One of the four board members implicated in Mr. Altman’s firing, OpenAI co-founder and chief scientist Ilya Sutskever, later expressed remorse and joined calls for the board’s resignation.

In recent days, Microsoft pledged to welcome all employees who want to follow Mr. Altman and Mr. Brockman to the software giant’s new artificial intelligence research unit. Microsoft CEO Satya Nadella also made clear in a series of interviews on Monday that he remains open to the possibility of Mr. Altman returning to OpenAI, as long as the startup’s governance issues are resolved.

Benefits of joining IPEF’s trade pillar unclear Functionary

 The trade pillar is one of the most  pivotal  corridor of IPEF that seeks commitment on sensitive areas as  husbandry, digital trade and labour and could bear changes in domestic regulation. 

  With the  listed seven rounds of Indo- Pacific Economic Framework for Prosperity( IPEF) accommodations drawing to a close this month, New Delhi continues to be skeptical of joining the trade pillar citing the lack of “ palpable benefits ”, said a  elderly government functionary with direct knowledge of the matter.   The trade pillar is one of the most  pivotal  corridor of IPEF that seeks commitment on sensitive areas as  husbandry, digital trade and labour and could bear changes in domestic regulation. still, in a  reversal to the Washington- driven IPEF that seeks to  fight China’s dominance in the region, an agreement on the trade pillar wasn’t reached in the last round in San Francisco.

   IPEF was launched concertedly by the US and other  mate countries of the Indo- Pacific region on May 23 last time in Tokyo and is structured around four  crucial negotiating subjects or pillars relating to trade,  force chains, clean frugality and fair frugality( issues like  duty andanti-corruption). But unlike traditional trade deals, IPEF doesn’t deal with  request access.  

 “ On pillar there was a positive intent from all member countries because  force chain adaptability and green energy transition is a common  bid. On the trade pillar, there are questions. Benefits aren’t clear and that’s  presumably why the trade pillar has not been closed. Because members are chancing  it  delicate to take commitments without any clear palpable benefit. That has been the reason for the  detention, ” the functionary said.   

“ When we had started accommodations last time, seven rounds were  listed to take place to complete addresses on all four pillars. Trade pillar is a significant and aspiration pillar and has as  numerous as 10 chapters. There has been progress but members couldn’t advertise the  check of the trade pillar. We hadn’t planned any accommodations after November, ” the functionary said.  

 On the contentious issues of import restriction, the functionary said that  perceptivity of each country has been taken care which helped in the signing of three pillars but no  agreement over commitment on import restriction is likely.   The IPEF agreement refers to avoiding restrictions on food and  husbandry  significances or exports. still, India has been  considerably using  similar restrictions to arrest food prices. India has banned wheat exports, assessed restrictions on rice and sugar exports in the run up to the general  choices coming time.   

“ For case, phase down of coal power. It was  commodity that developed countries wanted but it’s a  perceptivity for India and it was eventually dropped. We’re committing to increase our share of renewable energy. But as far as import restriction is concerned. It’s a autonomous policy space which each country wants to  cover. It isn’t easy for any country to commit to this. Any discussion around import restriction will need to be caveated with certain safeguard which is important for  public security and food security. I do n’t  suppose there could be any  agreement on import restriction in IPEF, ” the functionary reiterated.  

 Ajay Srivastava, a former Indian Trade Services officer andco-founder global trade  exploration action( GTRI), said that India’s decision to stay out of the Trade pillar, which focuses on digital trade, labor, and other sectors, aligns with its broader strategy of retaining nonsupervisory autonomy. The  norms under discussion, primarily aligned with Organisation for EconomicCo-operation and Development( OECD)  husbandry, pose a challenge for India in terms of domestic rule alignment.  

 “ The trade pillar isn’t about  request access for goods or services but about changing the domestic nonsupervisory  governance for digital trade, labour and other sectors. utmost  norms under discussion are  formerly being applied in the US and other OECD  husbandry. India must make domestic rules  norms gormandize or risk being pushed in IPEF and in FTA accommodations with the EU, the UK, etc, ” Srivastava said. 

  Australia, Brunei Darussalam, Fiji, India, Indonesia, Japan, the Republic of Korea, Malaysia, New Zealand, Philippines, Singapore, Thailand, the US and Vietnam are members of the IPEF. Together they  regard for 40 per cent of the world’s  profitable affair and 28 per cent of trade.

  Finance Minister Nirmala Sitharaman said on Wednesday that the  International Monetary Fund (IMF), Financial Stability Board (FSB) and  Financial Action Task Force (FATF) will  update  G20 member  countries  and other countries  on  the progress  of  implementing  the G20  Cryptoassets Roadmap.

  “The G20 has formally adopted the  (Cryptoassets) Roadmap.

  In September,  at the request of India’s G20 Presidency,  the IMF and  FSB released a policy  paper opposing a complete  ban on  crypto assets.  Instead, it  was proposed to introduce  a licensing  system that would impose  anti-money laundering and  anti-terrorist  financing  standards on crypto asset platforms.

The IOC ended the railways’ dominance with a penalty shootout win for the women’s combined industry title.

Indian Oil Corporation (IOC) came back from a two-goal deficit to defeat defending champions and Railway Sports Promotion Council favorites in a penalty shootout and win the Inter-Industry Women’s Badminton Hockey Championship for the third time at the Shivaji Stadium here on Tuesday.

The Railways, once the undisputed leader in women’s national hockey, has been stunned by the resistance of a team that was formed only last year and is participating in its first competition. With both teams boasting Indian women’s hockey, including a majority of the national team players, it was encouraging to see a large crowd come out to support the team, something that has become quite rare in hockey in Delhi.

The Railways had experience and started strong, attacking early and leaving the IOC out of space with a tight defence.

Goalkeeper Rajni Ittimarpu held out despite some early interventions by the IOC, and it was no surprise that it was Vandana Kataria – the only Indian to have more than 300 international caps – who put the goalkeeper ahead in the 12th minute. 

Mariana Kogor scored a deflected goal three minutes later to take a 2-0 lead as the Rail Girls made their intentions clear.

They worked well together, creating spaces to continually progress and test the IOC even as Deep Grace Ekka brilliantly led the defence. The IOC conceded 9 corner kicks, but were blocked several times, with Shelby Dabas even saving a goal in the final minute.

The second half saw the IOC play more aggressively with Sharmila Devi, Rajwinder Kaur and Jyoti constantly creating chances but they could not get past Rajni. But every time the gap closed, the railroads found a way to fight back almost immediately. Leading 4-2 with five minutes to go, Railways looked set to complete a hat-trick of titles, but made an error in finishing off the game from the start, leaving the defense open and Rajwinder Kaur made no mistake in scoring the third goal before that. A corner kick was awarded. With just one minute left in the match, Jyoti scored a goal to send the match to penalties.

Dipika, Baljit Kaur and Jyoti completed the shootout for the IOC while Bichu Devi denied the Railway’s top pundits from scoring and only Sangeeta and Preeti Dubey netted.

SAI took third place

In the third place match, Sports Authority of India (SAI) defeated Sashastra Seema Bal (SSB) 3-1. Result: Final: IOC 4 (Jyoti 2, Rajwinder Kaur, Sharmila Devi) beat RSPB 4 (Vandana Kataria 2, Marianna Kujur, Sangeeta Kumari) fearing ban.

3rd place: SAI 3 (Lalrindiki 2, Kavita) beating SSB 1 (Rajni Bala).
