Pakistan, a close ally of Saudi Arabia, today "noted with concern" a new US law that allows Americans to sue foreign countries that "aids and abets" acts of terrorism on US soil. US Congress in a historic vote on September 28 overturned President Barack Obama's veto to pass the Justice Against Sponsors of Terrorism Act (JASTA), informally known as the 9/11 law, which has been primarily drafted with Saudi Arabia in mind as most of the 9/11 attackers were Saudi citizens.


The Obama administration had argued that the law would undermine the principle of sovereign immunity and open up the United States itself to unending lawsuits.


Pakistan's Foreign Office said: "We have noted with concern the overturning of the US Presidential veto on JASTA, a law passed by US Congress aimed at targeting sovereign states. Many countries across Europe and in the Middle East have also expressed similar concern over JASTA." Pakistan has expressed anguish over adoption of a domestic legislation with extra-territorial application, it said.

Rapper Kanye West has reportedly put in 6 million pounds into boosting security in the hours after wife Kim Kardashian was bound and gagged at gunpoint by raiders. The rapper will even have lookalikes of Kim on permanent duty to act as decoys and help keep her movements secret.


And he has enlisted an online security team that previously advised the White House in order to combat accidental leaks while using social media, reported Daily Mirror. Kim's personal bodyguard warned the gang: "We will find you. You messed with the wrong one" Kim, 35, was ambushed in her Paris apartment in the early hours of Monday.

Shiv Sena today demanded that sedition charges be slapped on Congress leader Sanjay Nirupam for questioning the integrity of the Army and sought his immediate removal from the party's Mumbai chief post. Nirupam had yesterday raised questions on the veracity of the surgical strikes by the Army on terror launch pads across the LoC, suggesting it was "fake".


He also went on to demand "some evidence" to prove that the strikes did take place and accused the ruling BJP at the Centre of indulging in politics over the issue. "Every Indian wants surgical strikes against Pakistan but not a fake one to extract just political benefit by BJP. politics over national interest(sic)," Nirupam had tweeted, kicking up a row over the emotive issue.


"Nirupam needs to be lessoned on keeping blind faith on our Army. It is surprising that he can dare to question the veracity of the Army operations at a time when even Congress president and vice-president have made their stand very clear on this issue," Sena spokesperson Manisha Kayande said.

"The British Empire was responsible for reducing India, one of the world's richest countries in the 17th century, to one of the poorest in the 20th century," says Shashi Tharoor in his latest book titled 'An Era of Darkness: The British Empire in India'.


Tharoor had released the final cover of next book on his twitter handle and the title is expected to release on November 11 by Aleph Book publications.


The book is expected to shed light on how the imperial Britain systematically and scientifically looted colonial India and the dark roots of their reforms in favor of British economy.


Dr Tharoor is the author of three novels -- The Great Indian Novel (1989), Riot (2001) and Show Business (1992). He has also authored a collection of short stories, The Five Dollar Smile (1990) and the text of a coffee-table book with the photographer Ferrante Ferranti, India (2008).

The Congress on Monday claimed the UPA II, like the NDA government, had also conducted "surgical strikes' -- but without making them public. The party listed three dates -- September 1, 2011; July 28, 2013; and, January 14, 2014 -- when the strikes took place.


The Manmohan Singh government, known for its publicly stated policy of "strategic restraint", was in power at the time. While the strikes were not made public, a look at events around those dates offers some clues into what could have transpired.

Karl Lagerfeld has suggested Kim Kardashian West should not have displayed her wealth for millions to see after the reality star was robbed at gunpoint.


Lagerfeld, the creative director of Chanel and Kardashian's friend and sometime collaborator, questioned why she would share pictures of her diamond rings and grillz and then stay somewhere without putting heightened security in place.


French police say the 35-year-old was targeted by thieves at a luxury residence in Paris after sharing pictures of her diamond jewellery with her 84 million Twitter followers.


The Keeping Up With The Kardashians star was bound, gagged and held at gunpoint by two men who authorities say made off with jewellery worth 9 million.

The 2016 Nobel Prize for Chemistry has been awarded for the development of the world's smallest machines. Jean-Pierre Sauvage, Sir J Fraser Stoddart and Bernard L Feringa will share the 8m kronor (727,000) prize for the design and synthesis of machines on a molecular scale.


They were named at a press conference in Sweden.


The winners join a prestigious list of 200 other Chemistry laureates recognised since 1901.


The machines conceived by today's laureates are a thousand times thinner than a strand of hair.They could be used to deliver drugs within the human body - for instance, applying them directly to cancer cells.

An eerie calm prevailed along the Indo-Pak border here as guns fell silent overnight after a series of ceasefire violations by Pakistani troops in the past week.


"There was no ceasefire violation reported along LoC in Jammu, Poonch and Rajouri districts last night," a defence spokesman said today.


"Guns have fallen silent after our strong retaliation and befitting reply to the Pakistani troops," he said.


Violating the border ceasefire five times in 24 hours, Pakistan troops had yesterday pounded Indian military and civilian positions in 10 areas along the Line of Control (LoC) in Jammu region, provoking retaliation. A jawan was reportedly injured due to a splinter in Pallanwala sector.

PM Narendra Modi tells his ministers there should be no chest thumping on the surgical strikes. He also warned them that there is no need to speak out of turn and only authorised leaders should speak.


A few days ago, the BJP leadership is learnt to have quietly told its leaders to refrain from chest thumping and wait and watch for some more time before drawing political mileage from the operation.


However, there is near unanimity within the party leadership that the highly successful strikes will translate into massive vote swing in favour of the saffron party in the next years Assembly elections.

As chorus for showing proof of the surgical strikes on terror launch pads grew, Union Minister Hansraj Ahir today said the Army has handed over to the government video clips of the cross-LoC operation as per the laid down procedure.


Ahir said there is a process for putting such issues in perspective which was duly followed by the Army as well as the government.


"The laid down procedure has been followed. The DGMO briefed (about the surgical strikes). It was not the Defence Minister nor the Prime Minister and not the Home Minister. It was the DGMO who briefed (the media). That was the right thing to do and they (Army) did it. "There was a time when written documents were submitted. Now the times have changed. Now clips are given and the clips have been given," he told reporters.


The Minister of State for Home's statement came amidst the growing chorus for showing proof of Army's surgical strikes on terror launch pads in PoK. A political slugfest broke out yesterday over surgical strikes on terror launch pads across the LoC with Mumbai Congress chief Sanjay Nirupam calling it "fake", provoking stinging criticism from BJP even as his own party said it "totally dissociates" from his remarks.

A Pakistani boat has been seized in the Kutch area of Gujarat by BSF, suspects detained.

This is the third Pakistani boat that has been seized since the surgical strikes on the morning of September 29.

Yesterday, amid heightened vigil, an empty Pakistani boat was seized by the Border Security Force troops from River Ravi in Punjabs Pathankot sector.

We have captured a Pakistani boat which had washed away to this side in River Ravi along the International Border in Pathankot sector, a senior BSF officer said.

He said it was an empty boat.

The boat was probably washed away due to rising water level in River Ravi in Pathankot sector, he said.

The seizure comes at a time when there is heightened vigil due to increasing tension between India and Pakistan.

The seizure comes two days after a Pakistani boat with nine crew members was apprehended off the Gujarat coast by the Indian Coast Guard on October 2.

Coast Guard Ship Samudra Pavak apprehended the Pakistani boat having nine crew members off Gujarat coast during patrolling.

There were alerts then that two other suspicious Pakistani boats are moving towards either Gujarat or Maharashtra from the Karachi port.

Preliminary information indicated the people on board were Pakistani fishermen.

However, the boat and the crew members are being escorted to Porbandar for further investigation, the release said.

A day after the monetary policy committee (MPC) debuted with a surprise 0.25 per cent cut in rates, analysts today said the Reserve Bank will continue with the accommodative stance but the next action can come only in the February review.


In a note, domestic rating agency Icra said it expects the rate easing cycle to continue.


"With the indication that real interest rates (the differential between the key lending rate and inflation) may need to be lower than 1.50 per cent given prevailing global scenario of negative rates, further easing by the Monetary Policy Committee (MPC) can't be ruled out," its senior vice president Karthik Srinivasan said, adding that he is uncertain over the timing.


Economists at foreign brokerage Bank of America Merill Lynch said however that it doesn't expect any rate cut in the upcoming review of the bi-monthly policy in December. "We expect a final 0.25 per cent cut on February 7," it said in a note.

The Pakistan government on Tuesday admitted on the floor of the Senate that it was still in dark about the alleged involvement of Pakistanis in the attack on the Pathankot airbase in India. Read more

It cannot get more absurd. While the Indians insist that they carried out a cross-LoC surgical military strike, the Pakistanis are befuddled by the claim. Either the Indians are hallucinating or the Pakistanis are in a complete state of denial.


The riddle gets more confusing with the Indian claim of having destroyed 'terrorist camps' a few kilometres inside Azad Kashmir killing dozens of militants, and the Pakistani security forces unofficially claiming to have captured one Indian soldier who 'strayed' into our part. The mystery thickens.  Read more

Democratic presidential nominee Hillary Clinton has accused her Republican rival Donald Trump of outsourcing jobs to 12 countries and said if elected she would tax companies for shipping jobs overseas.


"I'm tired of American companies shipping jobs overseas. So, we're gonna make them give back any tax breaks they've ever gotten. If they wanna move jobs out of America, they're gonna have to pay an exit tax if they think that's what they wanna do. But again, Trump sees it differently. He actually outsources jobs to 12 different countries," Clinton said.


"So when I heard him say that the first time, that well yeah he - he couldn't find anybody in America to make clothes or furniture. I said, 'Well, we're gonna start a website and we're gonna put on that website all the companies we know of here in Pennsylvania and Ohio and Michigan and Colorado and Virginia and across the country who could make everything that Donald Trump sells.' I mean, look, you wanna make America great again, don't you think you should have jobs in America that make Americans' lives better?" she said. "But this is - this is the pattern with Donald Trump... This is a man who we now know paid no taxes. That's what we suspected, but until some of his tax returns were made public we couldn't prove it," she said addressing a well-attended election rally in the key battleground State of Pennsylvania.

Prime Minister Modi chaired a high-level meet to review the security situation across the border.

India's armed forces have given the green signal to the government to use the video footage of the surgical strikes against terror camps in Pakistan-occupied Kashmir (PoK) in any manner it sees fit to make New Delhi's case, reports the Economic Times.


The final decision on this rests with the Prime Minister's Office (PMO).


Top army officers, speaking off record, told ET that the army is keen that India release evidence that will answer those alleging the strikes never happened. This recommendation was made in the wake of Pakistan's military establishment persistently claiming that the September 29 predawn strikes never happened.


Top government officials, also speaking off record, told ET that the decision on whether or not to release the strike footage will depend on the larger call on likely Pakistani response. One possibility being considered is whether making the video evidence public may escalate Indo-Pak tensions by forcing the Pakistani establishment into a corner.

Locals living in areas across the Line of Control where the Indian army conducted surgical strikes on terrorist launch pads last week have given details of the operation, according to a report published in The Indian Express today.

They also described brief but intense fire engagements that destroyed makeshift buildings that housed jihadists before they left to cross the LoC.

The report corroborates India's claims that it carried out strikes against terror launch pads -- a claim Pakistan has denied.
