Akashdeep Singh slams hat-trick as India rout Uzbekistan 10-0 in FIH Series Finals

The last Pool A match turned out to be a mismatch as the Indians controlled the proceedings from start to finish. The action was all in the Uzbekistan half as India attacked in numbers from the word go and secured as many as five penalty corners in the first four minutes, the last of which was converted by Varun to hand lead to the home team. Next was Akashdeep's turn to register his name in the scoresheet as he scored from a rebound from another short corner in the 11th minute. Four minutes later, Rohidas converted a penalty corner to make the scoreline 3-0 in India's favour. It continued to rain goals in the second quarter as India scored four more to go into the breather with a handsome 7-0 lead. Varun scored his second in the 22nd minute from a field effort before Akashdeep found the Uzbek net with a reverse hit two minutes later. Young Nilkanta was not to be left behind as he scored from a rebound in the next minute from India's next short corner. Mandeep completed the first half rout, pushing in from close range after being fed by Ramandeep Singh. India dominated after the change of ends but could score just once in the third quarter when Gursahibjit guided the ball into the net in the 45th minute after receiving a through pass from Sumit. Thereafter, Aksshdeep completed his hat-trick before Mandeep scored another at the stroke of the final hooter to round off the drubbing. It was a no contest at all as Uzbekistan failed to threaten India's goal even once in the entire 60 minutes. India's domination can be gauged from the fact that they earned as many as 12 penalty corners as against the rivals' none. The Indians had 23 shots on goal while the Uzbeks had none.

Flood of stink in parched city

The road is inundated by drainage and sewage water. Ranchi Municipal Corporation is aware of this problem but the municipal authority never showed interest for permanent solution of the problem. I informed RMC officials and they once visited the locality and returned without giving any solution. Ranchi's civic guardians apparently have always been immune to such criticism," Jha said.Sources in the civic body said the RMC employee and his family members own the 10-cottah vacant plot which is used as the discharge area of the drainage, and they have blocked the discharge."In the last two months, we received around two dozen complaints from local residents who said that some unknown person choked the drainage. Every time we cleaned it, the next day the drainage was found choked again," said an RMC employee who pleaded anonymity. Residents are being forced to stay indoors due to the overflowing drain."We are living in a hell with foul smells, insects and reptiles all around," said Shiv Kant Mishra (75), a pediatrician whose house is situated next to the vacant plot. "I can't even go out of my house as my premises are flooded. The drain water has polluted my well. Parents face problem to visit my home," added Mishra, who on average treats 40 children at his home clinic.Raman Kumar, assistant to gynaecologist Sunita Jha who runs her private nursing home in the colony, said patients are not coming these days and they take medical advice over phone."The road is narrow and full of potholes and flooded so it is risky for pregnant women to visit the nursing home. This is one of the busiest roads of the colony, but unfortunately the RMC doesn't care for basic civic amenities," said Kumar.Residents fear the worst is yet to come; schools are due to open next week after summer vacations. Vidyapatinagar Col-ony has a population over 10,000. Gandhinagar has four schools including DAV, and health centres such as CCL Hospital.Most of the children of the locality study at these schools."My two daughters study at DAV school. I am worried how they will go to school," said homemaker Sabita Mishra. "They will have to travel an additional kilometre. For the past 10 days me along with my children and husband have been living with my parents at Boreya." Around three years ago, the civic body had sanctioned Rs 36 lakh to extend the drainage pipe to Gandhinagar. However, work was stopped midway. The RMC reasoned that it would be an unnecessary expenditure since the mega drainage and sewerage project for Ranchi under the JNNURM (Jawaharlal Nehru National Urban Renewal Mission) has already been kicked off including at ward number 2."Do we suffer till our locality is covered under JNNURM? This project is already running late," said resident and shopkeeper Bapi Chatterjee."My business has suffered. We are always neglected by RMC."Contacted, Ranchi deputy mayor Sanjeev Vijayvargiya said: "I personally called the land owner, who is an RMC employee, to allow his land as outfall but he gave cold response. Last year we decided to extend and connect the drainage with that of Gandhinagar. But the authorities of Central Coalfields Limited denied permission. We are trying to find an alternative."Homemaker Anita Jha said the locality would hold meeting within a couple of days "to decide whether to pay tax to the RMC". She added: "We the housewives have been facing problems. During the Assembly election we will surely teach the government a lesson."

IBPS PO recruitment 2019: JK Bank dismisses protest by unsuccessful aspirants, says recruitment process transparent

'Post declaration of the results of the bank's online recruitment test for the preliminary examination conducted by institute of banking personnel selection (IBPS), Mumbai for the selection of probationary officers in the bank, it has come to the notice of the bank that there is a parochial attempt by some vested interests to misguide the applicants with baseless misinformation on the selection process being skewed to a particular district on the basis of merit cut off,' the bank said in an advertisement to local dailies. It said the bank has a board approved policy for the recruitment of officers (probationary officers) and clerks (banking associates) wherein the process is kick-started by forecasting the vacancies district wise to quantify the number of posts, followed by issuing of notification for soliciting applications clearly notifying that the vacancies are as per district-wise requirement followed by declaration of district-wise merit list and putting it in public domain. 'The bank has religiously adhered to the board approved policy and process with absolute transparency. The cut off has been decided by the bank on the basis of merit list provided by the IBPS and as per the geographic distribution of vacancies in each district of the state which has been communicated ab initio by the bank at the time of issuance of first notification,' the bank said. It said the bank reiterates that its recruitment process is completely transparent and public in general and applicants in particular, should not fall prey to the misinformation campaign by some mischievous elements on social media by making assertions which are hypothetical, libellous and aimed at tarnishing the image of J&K bank branch. Reacting to the resentment by aspirants questioning the criteria followed and adopted by the bank, chief spokesperson of state Congress Ravinder Sharma urged the Governor Satya Pal Malik to immediately look into the matter. 'Apparently, there appears justification in their protests as why merit alone is not the criteria when the selected candidates are transferable to any branch of the bank in the country,' he said. BJP state spokesperson Anil Gupta said his party understands the disappointment of the candidates and stands solidly with them. 'The Governor and the concerned advisor have already been approached for their kind intervention to undo the injustice meted out to meritorious candidates of Jammu,' Gupta said. He said the bank earlier never resorted to making the selection list public and used to intimate the selected candidates directly. This time the bank was under pressure to maintain transparency. However, it resorted to a unique and arbitrary method of recruiting a state cadre post on district-basis without informing the district wise vacancies beforehand to the aspirant candidates along with the original notification for the written exam, Gupta claimed. 'If the district wise requirement was known, why was it kept hidden from the aspirants? Also the bank needs to justify as to how a state-cadre post can be managed through a district-wise cadre? 'If the selected candidates are required to serve anywhere in the State or the country, how can district wise selection be justified? The decision is not only arbitrary but smacks of bias and discrimination against a particular region of the state,' he alleged.

At RIMS, an ailing Lalu battles erratic water, power supply too

Following this, a delegation of the party demanded the RIMS administration to refer the party chief to some super-specialty hospital for better treatment. The delegation pointed out that there was mismanagement in water and electricity supply in hospital's paying ward. On Thursday, Kailash Yadav, state general secretary of RJD, said that despite assurances, hospital authorities had failed to provide basic amenities in the paying ward. ' If conditions are abysmal in the paying ward, then how can poor patients expect good facilities in the general ward? When one among the country's most popular leader is meted out such treatment, we can well imagine what happens with normal patients,' Yadav said. He said RIMS director Dr DK Singh, when apprised of the situation, had said the hospital faced shortage of water and power due to erratic supply from the state government agencies. RJD state president, Gautam Singh Rana, said Prasad's health could deteriorate if authorities continued to behave irresponsibly. Prasad is suffering from a multiple ailments and had also undergone heart valve replacement surgery in 2018. A private security guard at the hospital said Prasad's ward did not have water supply for the last four days. However, RIMS medical superintendent Dr Vivek Kashyap said water supply was disrupted for some time in Prasad's ward because of some glitch in the pipeline and tap. A plumber had rectified the problem on Wednesday, and water supply was restored in Prasad's ward, he said.

RBI lowers FY20 growth estimate to 7 per cent

'Weak global demand due to escalation in trade wars may further impact India's exports and investment activity. Further, private consumption, especially in rural areas, has weakened in recent months,' the Monetary Policy Committee of the RBI said. However, on the positive side, political stability, high capacity utilisation, the uptick in business expectations in Q2, buoyant stock market conditions and higher financial flows to the commercial sector augur well for investment activity, it said. Why RBI has cut lending rates for the third consecutive time 'Taking into consideration various factors and the impact of recent policy rate cuts, GDP growth for 2019-20 is revised downwards from 7.2 per cent in the April policy to 7.0 per cent — in the range of 6.4-6.7 per cent for H1:2019-20 and 7.2-7.5 per cent for H2 — with risks evenly balanced,' it said. 'The MPC noted that growth impulses have significantly weakened as reflected in a further widening of the output gap,' it said. On May 31, 2019, the National Statistical Office (NSO) released quarterly estimates of GDP for Q4 of 2018-19 and provisional estimates of national income for 2018-19. GDP growth for 2018-19 has been estimated at 6.8 per cent year-on-year (y-o-y), down by 20 basis points from the second advance estimates released on February 28, pulled down by a downward revision in private final consumption expenditure (PFCE) and moderation in exports. Quarterly data show that domestic economic activity decelerated sharply to 5.8 per cent in Q4:2018-19 from 6.6 per cent in Q3 and 8.1 per cent in Q4 of 2017-18. Gross fixed capital formation (GFCF) growth declined sharply to 3.6 per cent, after remaining in double digits in the previous five quarters. Private consumption growth also moderated, the RBI said. 'The drag on aggregate demand from net exports increased in Q4 due to a sharper deceleration in exports relative to imports. However, the overall slowdown in growth was cushioned by a large increase in government final consumption expenditure (GFCE),' it said. On the supply side, agriculture and allied activities contracted, albeit marginally, in Q4 of 2018-19 due to a decline in rabi production. According to the third advance estimates, foodgrains production at 283.4 million tonnes for 2018-19 was lower by 0.6 per cent compared with the previous year mainly due to lower production of rabi rice, pulses and coarse cereals. However, there has been a catch-up in foodgrains production relative to earlier estimates.
