Actor Pooja Chopra wants 50% reservation for women in electoral politics.

A boat carrying tourists capsized in Yamuna in Vrindavan on Friday (April 10, 2026) afternoon, leaving at least 10 people dead and several others missing. About 17 people have been rescued so far, Mathura’s District Magistrate Chandra Prakash Singh confirmed, adding that efforts are on to locate the others. He reported six fatalities earlier and later rescuers recovered four more bodies, taking the toll to 10. Medical authorities at the Vrindavan Joint Hospital said the deceased include six men and four women. Mr. Singh said that all tourists onboard the overcrowded boat were from Punjab. The boat, carrying around 30 passengers, was ferrying people between Vrindavan and nearby areas when it is said to have collided with an iron pontoon bridge built across the river. The impact caused the overcrowded boat to lose balance and overturn in deep waters. Rescue operations are under way with the State Disaster Response Force (SDRF) and National Disaster Response Force (NDRF), and local divers searching deeper sections of the river. Senior officials, including the District Magistrate are at the spot to monitor the situation.

Asked someone from the industry whether foreign investors are still interested in allocating to India. The TLDR: Interest has pretty much died out. India is seen as geopolitically exposed, especially to an oil shock. There are no real AI plays. Valuations are rich. And the rupee situation doesn't help. On top of that, investors who were sitting on gains have taken money off the table and are now looking at markets like Japan, Taiwan, Korea, Europe etc instead. He also pointed out that our LTCG/STCG structure and the increase in STT have made India less attractive compared to other markets that are seeing inflows. If we need to attract FPIs back, and we do, fixing this feels like pretty low-hanging fruit.
