00:00 On Tuesday, the Union Government tabled the contentious Government of National Capital
00:11 Territory of Delhi Amendment Bill 2023 in the Lok Sabha seeking to replace an ordinance
00:16 related to the control of services in the national capital.
00:20 The proposed legislation, which has brought the Delhi government and the Centre at loggerheads,
00:24 empowers the Delhi Lieutenant Governor-General to have a final say in recommendations regarding
00:29 the transfer and posting of Delhi government officials, received the nod of the Union Cabinet
00:33 on July 25.
00:34 Tabled by Minister of State for Home Affairs Nityanand Rai, the legislation will reverse
00:39 the effect of the Supreme Court verdict in May that gave the Delhi government power over
00:44 administrative services.
00:46 The opposition has been protesting against the ordinance since the beginning of the monsoon
00:49 session of Parliament.
00:54 Akasa Air on Tuesday said that it has added the 20th aircraft to its fleet that also makes
00:58 the airline eligible to start international operations.
01:01 The carrier, which will complete one year of operations on August 7, has also become
01:06 the first airline in Asia to have the Boeing 737-8-200 variant.
01:11 According to a release, the Boeing 737-8-200 aircraft aligns with Akasa Air's continued
01:16 efforts to control operating costs.
01:19 Indian regulations require airlines to have at least 20 aircraft in their fleet to become
01:24 eligible for international operations.
01:27 The airline has added an aircraft to its fleet after four months.
01:33 Odisha received heavy rain as a well-marked low-pressure area in the Bay of Bengal first
01:37 intensified into a depression and latter into a deep depression on Tuesday, said the India
01:42 Meteorological Department.
01:43 The weather office said that rough sea conditions will prevail and warned fishermen against
01:47 venturing into the sea till Wednesday afternoon.
01:50 The depression over the north-eastern Bay of Bengal moved north-north-westwards at a
01:54 speed of 25 km/hr, intensifying into a deep depression, and lay centred around 160 km
02:00 east-southeast of Kheppupara in Bangladesh and 420 km east of Digha in West Bengal, the
02:06 IMD said in its bulletin.
02:07 "It is likely to move north-westwards and cross the Bangladesh coast east of Kheppupara
02:12 by Tuesday evening and thereafter move west-north-westwards across Gangetic West Bengal in the next 24
02:17 hours," the bulletin said.
02:21 One civilian and two home guards were killed and more than 200 people were injured and
02:25 dozens of vehicles were set on fire as mobs in Haryana's Noo and Gurugram districts
02:30 tried to stop a religious procession by the Bajrang Dal and Vishwa Hindu Parishad on Monday.
02:35 The deceased guards have been identified as Neeraj and Gursevak.
02:38 Ten police personnel sustained serious injuries when a mob pelted stones on Gurugram police
02:44 teams on their way to Noo.
02:46 All injured were under treatment at Medanta Hospital.
02:49 As news of the clash in Muslim-dominated Noo spread, mobs in Sohna in Gurugram pelted stones
02:54 and set ablaze four vehicles and a shop belonging to people from that community.
02:59 Protesters there blocked a road for hours.
03:01 Prohibitory orders under Section 144 Criminal Procedure Code have been imposed in Gurugram.
