Veteran CPI(M) leader G Sudhakaran opts not to renew party membership In a detailed Facebook post, Sudhakaran openly expressed displeasure over the alleged continuing neglect shown towards him by the Marxist party’s state and district leaderships and said he does not wish to cause inconvenience to the leaders by continuing in the party.

He has not been on good terms with the CPI leadership for some time and had been in the news many times for openly criticising some of the party leaders. His decision to cut the …

Afghanistan is looking to renew and normalise ties with India and is open to investments for the country’s development, Taliban spokesman Suhail Shaheen said on Friday in the wake of the first contact between external affairs minister S Jaishankar and Taliban acting foreign minister Amir Khan Muttaqi.

(File photo used for representational purpose only) | Photo Credit: Reuters ReNew Power, a Renewable Energy (RE) company, is investing about ₹22,000 crore in what it claims to be the country’s largest single-site RE complex coming up at Bethapalle village in Anantapur district in Andhra Pradesh.  The ground-breaking ceremony for the project is scheduled on May 16. IT & HRD Minister Nara Lokesh will be participating in it, thereby giving a big boost to the State’s RE landscape. ReNew was the largest RE investor in Andhra Pradesh six years ago, that is, in 2019 with an installed capacity of 777 MW but it had suspended its expansion plans owing to the cancellation of Power Purchase Agreements (PPA) by the YSR Congress Party government. The company’s re-entry into Andhra Pradesh now reflects the investor confidence in the National Democratic Alliance (NDA) government, and the above project is the first major one being grounded after the State’s Integrated Clean Energy Policy (ICEP) came into force in …

Chandrababu Naidu to renew the Foreign Contribution (Registration) Act (FCRA) of Rural Development Trust (RDT), which has been extending its services in various sectors since the last 55 years in the drought-hit Rayalaseema region, particularly in Anantapur. Speaking to the media in Anantapur on Sunday, the senior leader said that the services of RTD are not just limited to Anantapur, but extend across the States of Andhra Pradesh and Telangana. “RDT is not affiliated to any religion or a region. It has been working for the upliftment of the poor and its existence is at stake as the Centre has kept the FCRA of the trust pending,” Mr. Venkatarami Reddy said. The RDT was set up by Spanish humanist Vincente Ferrer in 1969. After the death of Vincente Ferrer in 2009, it has been managed by his wife Anne Ferrer and son Moncho Ferrer.

It will be the 26th meeting of their decorated careers, but one that comes at a time when Sindhu is still trying to find her rhythm back on the tour.
