There has been a severe educational problem that has arisen in Palghar following the resolution by the Zilla Parishad to close Classes 9 and 10 in 57 schools in the coming academic year. According to reports, the decision is mainly based on the problem of funds for contractual teachers, which may affect more than 6,500 pupils, most of whom come from rural communities. Students and parents are extremely concerned about the problem and have expressed their apprehension about the effects of such a move on their education. Teachers have also expressed their worries about job security due to this resolution. Such a situation has generated outrage, and if the resolution is not overturned, there is likely to be a protest against it. #PalgharNews #EducationCrisis #StudentsFuture #ZPSchools #Punetimesmirror

Trade idea NFA no one knows what will happen with Trump - its for BRENTOIL Let's get into it Hyperliquid lets you trade weekend markets But the price you see is not the spot price of oil It is currently BRENTN6 aka the July 2026 expiry price The last trading day for this is on 29 May (> 1 month away) but the oracle prices on Hyperliquid will start incorporating the August price starting 7 May People are surprised by this but it normal for BRENT markets to trade 2 months ahead as its the most liquid From the 7-13th of May (as per schedule below) the weights of the oracle will change to incorporate the price of the August expiry Currently: July expiry price: $99.93 August expiry price: $94.88 If the 2nd round of talks between US:Iran are somewhat fruitful then the August price can drop significantly even though the current price is flat Hyperliquid's xyz markets is going to start increasing the weight of the August expiry over the next 2 weeks so the drop could be even more significant BTW Bitmex BRENT contracts and others work in a similar fashion so this is not new - just that I think most people trading these weekend markets don't know this nuance and expect prices to reflect spot sentiment when its actually ~2 months out

CJI: Make these arguments before the appellate tribunal. Let the tribunal look into it Justice Bagchi: Appropriate orders will be passed by the tribunal .. this election yes perhaps they can't vote. The more valuable right to remain on the rolls shall be preserved.
