बाल-बाल बचे जेलेंस्की, मोल्दोवा से उड़ते ही विमान के करीब पहुंचा ड्रोन

SUMMARY
यूक्रेन के राष्ट्रपति वोलोदिमीर जेलेंस्की बाल-बाल बचे जब मोल्दोवा से उड़ान भरने के तुरंत बाद उनके विमान के करीब एक अज्ञात ड्रोन आ पहुंचा। यह घटना बेहद खतरनाक मानी जा रही है क्योंकि ड्रोन विमान से टकरा सकता था। जेलेंस्की मोल्दोवा में एक अंतरराष्ट्रीय बैठक में शामिल हुए थे। सुरक्षा एजेंसियों ने इस घटना की जांच शुरू कर दी है। यूक्रेन और रूस के बीच जारी युद्ध के बीच यह घटना गंभीर चिंता का विषय है। जेलेंस्की ने खुद इस घटना की पुष्टि की और इसे सुरक्षा खतरा बताया। विमान सुरक्षित लैंड हुआ और जेलेंस्की को कोई नुकसान नहीं पहुंचा।

NPS में ₹3000 महीना लगाएं तो रिटायरमेंट तक कितना फंड बन सकता है? समझिए पूरा कैलकुलेशन

SUMMARY
# NPS में ₹3000/महीना निवेश पर रिटायरमेंट फंड कैलकुलेशन

अगर आप 25 साल की उम्र में NPS में ₹3000 मासिक निवेश शुरू करें और 60 साल तक जारी रखें (35 साल), तो 10% औसत रिटर्न पर कुल निवेश ₹12.60 लाख होगा, लेकिन कंपाउंडिंग से फंड लगभग ₹1.14 करोड़ बन सकता है। NPS में 60% राशि निकाल सकते हैं यानी ~₹68 लाख एकमुश्त मिलेगा। बाकी 40% (~₹45 लाख) से एन्युइटी खरीदनी होती है जिससे मासिक पेंशन मिलती है, करीब ₹27,000-₹30,000 प्रति माह। NPS में टैक्स छूट भी मिलती है- 80CCD(1) में ₹1.5 लाख और 80CCD(1B) में अतिरिक्त ₹50,000। जितनी जल्दी शुरू करें, उतना बड़ा फंड बनेगा।

Forest rights group asks Tribal Affairs Ministry to withdraw stand on Gram Sabha consent

SUMMARY
A forest rights group has urged India's Tribal Affairs Ministry to withdraw its controversial stance regarding Gram Sabha consent for diverting forest land for development projects. The group argues that the Ministry's position undermines the Forest Rights Act, 2006, which mandates obtaining consent from Gram Sabhas (village assemblies) before any forest land diversion. Critics fear this weakens tribal communities' rights over their ancestral lands and forests. The demand highlights ongoing tensions between development projects and indigenous rights protection in India.

Wall Street dips as $100 oil, inflation worries weigh on investors

SUMMARY
Wall Street stocks declined as oil prices surged past $100 per barrel, intensifying inflation concerns among investors. Rising energy costs fueled fears of prolonged high inflation, potentially forcing the Federal Reserve to maintain aggressive interest rate hikes. Major indices, including the Dow Jones, S&P 500, and Nasdaq, fell as energy-sensitive sectors weighed on markets. Investors grew cautious over corporate earnings prospects, as higher input costs threaten profit margins. The geopolitical tensions and supply constraints driving oil prices added further uncertainty to an already volatile market.

States That Gave Data Centers Billions in Tax Breaks Are Now Ripping Up the Deals

SUMMARY
Several U.S. states that previously offered massive tax incentives to attract data centers are now reversing course. As AI-driven data centers surge in demand, they're consuming enormous amounts of electricity and water while creating few jobs relative to their footprint. States like Virginia, Georgia, and others are reconsidering or repealing billions in tax breaks, recognizing the deals haven't delivered promised economic benefits. Rising energy costs, grid strain, and community opposition are driving lawmakers to impose new taxes and moratoriums on data center development.
