Congress leader Shashi Tharoor issued a clarification after his condolences for former Pakistan dictator Pervez Musharraf caused a political controversy.

The Congress MP added that Musharraf was an enemy responsible for the Kargil war, but did work for peace with India between 2002 and 2007. He said that Musharraf was not India's friend, and his peace initiative was driven by strategic benefit.

Bhagwat that lack of dignity for labour is one of the chief reasons behind unemployment in society.

'Don't run after jobs', 'caste created by...': RSS chief Mohan Bhagwat on unemployment in India

Bhagwat that lack of dignity for labour is one of the chief reasons behind unemployment in society.

Rashtriya Swayamsevak Sangh chief Mohan Bhagwat commented on the economic and employment situation in India.
Speaking at an event in Mumbai on 5 February 2023, Bhagwat advised people to stop running after jobs, according to news agency PTI. He added that lack of dignity for labour is one of the chief reasons behind unemployment in society.
The RSS chief said that when every work is being done for society, then jobs cannot be considered small or big or different from each other. He reportedly said that everyone is equal in the eyes of god and no caste or sect exists before him. All these things were created by priests, which is wrong, Bhagwat said.
Giving an example, he said a man engaged in washing cups and utensils set up a paan stall with a small corpus of funds. "The paan shop owner went on to generate a wealth of around Rs 28 lakh...But despite that (such examples), our youth keep applying (for jobs) without getting any reply (from the employer)," Bhagwat said.

There are many farmers in the country who struggle to get married despite earning very good income through agriculture, he said.
The situation in the world is favourable for the country to become 'vishwaguru' (world&rsquo;s mentor). There is no shortage of skill sets in the country, he said, adding, "But we are not going to be like other countries after gaining prominence in the world." "Before the Islamic invasion in the country, other invaders did not disturb our lifestyle, our traditions and our schools of thought. But they (Muslim invaders) had a logical argument - first they defeated us using their might and then suppressed us psychologically," he said.
"Due to selfishness, we paved the way for invaders to attack us. Selfishness prevailed in our society and we stopped giving importance to other people and their work," Bhagwat said.

Amid Adani row, FM says regulators should be on their toes to keep market stable

She said banks and insurance companies are "not overexposed" to any one company and assured that Indian markets are very well managed by its regulators.

Finance Minister Nirmala Sitharaman has said that regulators Sebi and RBI should always be on their toes to keep the equity market stable and indicated that the Adani stock rout following a Hindenburg report was a company specific issue.
She said banks and insurance companies are "not overexposed" to any one company and assured that Indian markets are very well managed by its regulators.
"I don't want to have any view on it except that the regulators should act, act in time, and act to keep the market stable, act to keep India's regulatory functions at its best, whether it is the Reserve Bank, or SEBI. Sitting in the Finance Ministry, my view would be that the regulators should be always on their toes. And that is where I would comment on what's got to be done," Sitharaman said.
The Minister was replying to a question in an interview to Times Now on whether the Adani group stock rout was just a market activity, or this has happened for just one stock.
The Adani group has dismissed the charges as lies, saying it complies with all laws and disclosure requirements.
