RBI today increased the repo rate by 50 BPS

September 30, Chandigarh: RBI today increased the repo rate by 50 BPS and the lending rate to 5.9 per cent intensifying  its fight against persistently high inflation.  A 50 bps increase in the repo rate this week is the fourth consecutive hike since May. The MPC has raised the policy repo rate by 140 basis points since May to curb inflationary pressures.  The consumer price index (CPI) based retail inflation,  which had started showing signs of moderation since May, has again firmed up to seven per cent in August. The repo rate at which the RBI lends short-term funds to banks rose from 5.40% to 5.90%. This is the highest level since April 2019. This has evoked a mixed bag of feelings among real estate developers. While most agreed that the hike was moderate, their views diverged on the actual impact on the buyers at a time when buyers were warming up towards investing in real estate.
Mr. Prateek Mittal, Executive Director, Sushma, said "Decision of RBI has introduced a hike of 50 basis points withinside the repo rate with an purpose to cushion the effect of inflation. The rise in repo rates from 5.4% to 5.9% is quite effective and  it could be stored beneath as it's far much less in comparison to different components of the sector which are experiencing a equal situation. The hike become pretty expected, and the RBI has controlled it magnificently with the aid of using rolling out a marginal difference. This alternate could make a effective effect at the homebuyers overall."
Mr. Tejpreet Singh Gill, MD, Gillco Group said, "Global trends and domestic inflations together have led to an increase in repo rates. However, RBI has managed it quite well by rolling out a minor hike of 50 basis points. This will bring a slight pause to buying, but the real estate sector won’t suffer any downward trend as the festive season is around the corner and buying's are at their peak across all segments. The economic strength of buyers is increasing, and they would curb this marginal hike easily."
Mr. LC Mittal, Director, Motia Group said, "RBI has announced a rise of basis points in repo rates, jumping from 5.4% to 5.9%. Though this will bring an increase in home loan interest rates, the change would be minimal and would not have any lasting impact on the buyers. The buyers are emerging with a stronger economy, depicting their efficient buying capacity. This would hardly bring any wrath to them, owing to the marginal increase. This decision by the government will bring overall stability to the real estate sector."

They need to be inculcated right from the very beginning,”
Dr. Sankalp said that stress management be it school study stress, peer pressure, job stress or family stress needs to properly addressed and tackled. In India it is a common tendency to give as little as possible value to mental health especially when it comes to women. We should all make it a habit to talk to our kids, our family members to identify stressful triggers.

Punjab’s Iconic Wazir Patar Releases His Latest EP ‘Keep It Gangsta’ on Def Jam India, Delivers His Most Authentic Sound Inspired by His People


Chandigarh/ Amritsar: – Rapper, Composer, Music Producer and Lyricist, Wazir Patar has released his latest EP that captures his notorious triumphalism of underground hip-hop and poetic storytelling. Released through Def Jam India, Wazir manifests himself as an iconic archetype of old-school gangsta rap who stays close to his roots and never apologizes for taking over the world.
 
Titled ‘Keep It Gangsta’, the five-track EP –Feel, Pind Da Riwaaz, Tattoo, Chup Chup, Wapis Mud De Nai. The EP is a personal repository of Wazir’s honest interactions with his people and his everyday life in Majha. Perhaps, Punjab’s culture, which he has influenced as much as he is inspired by it, is his greatest motivation. Wazir Patar traverses everything that he has felt in his avant-garde career yet and puts it in perspective through this five-track EP. Produced by him, the fearless lyricist puffs his chest at one moment and self-reflects at another. Carefully curating a brilliant collection of groovy sounds marked by his signature turbulent gestations, Wazir asserts his place after producing spectacular hard-hitting hip-hop for years.

_*Wazir on his EP release shared,* “‘Keep it Gangsta’ symbolises my own everyday experiences with my people and my culture, so it holds a very special place in my heart. I firmly believe that each of us has been given a unique purpose in life, and it is an incredible feeling to be able to express yourself through music. Def Jam India has given me a big platform for my songs, and I hope the audience loves the new EP and keeps supporting me as they always do.”_ 

Recently, Def Jam India Recordings organized their first-ever album listening session in Mumbai, giving Wazir Patar’s fans and listeners an exclusive chance to listen to his unreleased EP before anyone else. The event was organized over the weekend and was open for all the audience and music lovers. The EP is a multi-faceted record that sees Wazir reveal much more than he usually does. Through impactful lyricism, he chooses his battles, opens up about his heartbreak and provides an enriching look into his life in Punjab and its fascinating culture. While doing so, he has stayed true to his iconic sound inspired by the 90s hip-hop in Compton, L.A. and beyond. Notably, he doesn’t leave his roots too as he gracefully samples native Indian instruments on the EP.

Def Jam India is Universal Music India’s new label division within India and South Asia dedicated to representing the best hip-hop and rap talent from the region. Def Jam India follows the blueprint of the iconic Def Jam Recordings label, which has led and influenced the cutting-edge in hip-hop and urban culture for more than 35 years.

Moscow presents Tourism and Business potential for the Indian Market

Bringing Global Destinations & Locations to Indian Cinema/ Attracting New Destinations to Indian Cinema.
Plans on the Grant Program for Filmmakers, the Grants can reach $ 250,000/-
 
Chandigarh : Moscow participated in the largest outbound tourism exhibition - Outbound Travel Mart (OTM) in Mumbai, where it demonstrated its Tourism and MICE potential. The event was held from 13 to 15 September in the Jio World Convention Centre. Moscow City Tourism Committee was represented by the ANO «Project Office for the Development of Tourism and Hospitality of Moscow». The Moscow delegation, headed by Ms. Alina Arutyunova, Deputy Chairman of Moscow City Tourism Committee, who  held talks with representatives of the India Tourism Industry to further strengthen its relationship with India.
 
Russia in the view of Indian Citizens!
- It’s a prestigious, exotic and fashionable country
- Many are eager to come to Moscow to be one of the first to see how people live in Russia.
- According to experts, building Business ties between representatives of the Tourism Industry of Russia and India will help overcome any kind of barriers.
Bulat Nurmukhanov, Head of International Cooperation Division, Moscow Tourism Committee, said that «Moscow City Tourism Committee is interested in attracting filming to Moscow, as this is a world practice in attracting tourists. We support the work of the Moscow Film Commission and represented Moscow at the business session "CineLocales: Bringing Global Destinations & Locations to Indian Cinema/ Attracting new Destinations to Indian Cinema" for Bollywood Production Centres that were represented by Netflix India, Jio Studios, Roy Kapur Films, Zee Studios, Ellipsis Entertainment and others. Moscow was represented among other countries, such as Turkey, Mauritius and South Africa, and demonstrated its filming infrastructure potential at a high level, which was warmly welcomed by the audience. Also Moscow shared its plans on the grant program for filmmakers, the grants can reach $ 250,000, depending on the percentage of Moscow image in the total footage. We hope that representatives of the Indian tourist segment were able to appreciate potential of Moscow in terms of tourism and filmmaking.”    
 
The growth rate of Inbound International Trips from India to Moscow exceeds the level of all Outbound International Trips from India. Thus, according to the India Ministry of Tourism, for the period 2016-2019, the total annual growth rate of inbound international trips from India to Moscow was 15%, and the number of inbound international trips to Moscow from India grew 1.8 times: from 61.4 thousand to 109 thousand trips. During the pandemic, it was expected that the number of inbound international trips from India to Moscow would decrease to 58 thousand trips, but it was noted that 48% of Indian travelers visited Moscow twice in 2021. According to Federal Agency for Tourism, in 2021, the tourist flow from India to Moscow has recovered by 40% compared to the pre-pandemic 2019.
 
This year during the first 6 months Moscow hosted 13.3 thousand Indians. It is expected that the pre-pandemic figures will be reached by the end of 2023. One of the drivers for growth is the visa policy of Russia. In September President Vladimir Putin supported the initiative to introduce visa-free regime for groups of foreign tourists. Besides that, the e-visa application will be launched for 52 countries, India is enlisted too. It is a simplified procedure for submitting documents online.
 
The Russian capital has all the necessary infrastructure, a high level of service and hospitality, and great opportunities for the Indian audience. For example, in the fall of 2021, Moscow became the first city in the post-Soviet space included in the Red Michelin Guide. And at the beginning of 2022, the United Nations (UNO) named Moscow the best metropolis in terms of "Quality of life" and "level of infrastructure development".
 
Moscow offers holidays for all tastes. Fans of luxury holidays can stay in one of 40 luxury hotels and dine in 69 Michelin-starred restaurants. In the capital there is an opportunity to taste the cuisine of any direction and region of the world in more than 15 thousand restaurants. And if someone misses the cuisine of their native country – more than 20 Indian restaurants are at guests' service. Connoisseurs of cultural life in Moscow are waiting for more than 400 museums and exhibition halls, 250 theaters and concert halls, a large number of festival programs, most of which are unique and have no analogues in the world. It is remarkable that tickets to the capital's museums are cheaper than tickets to many museums around the world. Outdoor enthusiasts will also find places to their taste in the capital: there are many parks and cultural urban spaces.
 
The capital is considered one of the safest cities – you can easily walk here in the evening. And the special tourist police, whose employees know several foreign languages, is always ready to help out.
 
According to the results of a sociological survey conducted by Moscow City Tourism Committee in 2021, 71% of Indian tourists highly appreciate their satisfaction with the trip and are ready to recommend visiting Moscow to friends and relatives and 48% visited Moscow twice last year.

चमत्कारी फूड सप्लीमेंट रिनाओ ब्लैक एमपी लिविंग वाटर के नियमित सेवन से असाध्य रोग भी दूर हो सकते हैं : रजनीश शर्मा

चण्डीगढ़ : हमारे शरीर में जितने भी अंग हैं, वे सभी भोजन से प्राप्त मिनरल्स यानी खनिजों से ही बने हैं एवं भोजन के माध्यम से शरीर मे जा रहे मिनरल्स ही उनकी नित्यप्रति देखभाल के काम आते हैं। कृत्रिम रूप से की जा रही खेती या फिर हमारे स्वाद के फलस्वरूप इनमे से ही किसी मिनरल की  कमी होने से अंग विशेष में कुछ ना कुछ विकार आ जाता है।

इस कमी को पूरा करने के लिए रिनाओ ग्लोबल ने एक चमत्कारिक फूड सप्लीमेंट तैयार किया है जिसे रिनाओ ब्लैक एमपी लिविंग वॉटर के नाम से लांच किया गया। ये फूड सप्लीमेंट 70 से भी अधिक खनिजों का मिश्रण है। यह जानकारी देते हुए रिनाओ ग्लोबल के नॉर्थ जोन के अधिकारी रजनीश शर्मा ने बताया कि इस कंपनी के सीईओ अमेरिका में बसे भारतीय मूल के मलविंदर गिल उर्फ 'मेल गिल' हैं जिनकी कंपनी  रेनाओ ग्लोबल ने काफी रिसर्च के बाद यह चमत्कारी फूड सप्लीमेंट तैयार किया है।

उन्होंने स्वयं का उदाहरण देते हुए बताया कि उन्हें लगभग 3 महीने हो गए हैं इसका नियमित सेवन करते हुए। इसका असर यह हुआ कि उनके गंजे सिर में अब बाल उगते हुए दिखाई देने लगे हैं और शुगर की वजह से उनकी लातों व पैरों में जो काले निशान बने हुए थे, उनका रंग फीका हो गया है व धीरे-धीरे जैसे गायब हो रहे हैं। उन्होंने बताया शरीर में खनिजों की कमी की वजह से जो भी विकार हो गया हो, यह फूड सप्लीमेंट उस कमी को जब दूर करेगा तो विकार स्वयंमेव ही दूर हो जाएगा। 
कंपनी के सीईओ मेल गिल ने बताया कि अमेरिका के अग्रणी फुटबॉल क्लब जिनमें नेशनल फुटबॉल लीग (एनएफएल) तथा लीजेंड्स फुटबॉल लीग आदि शामिल हैं, भी इस फूड सप्लीमेंट को एंडोर्स करते हैं। उन्होंने बताया कि इसमें कोई स्टेरॉयड नहीं है, ना ही कोई  कैमिकल है व न ही ये विगेन है। अल्टीमेट रिसर्च पर आधारित ये  प्रोडक्ट मानव शरीर को मिनरल्स, प्रोबियोटिक्स, एलेक्ट्रोलयट्स व एल्कलाइन पानी देने वाला एक  हेल्थ बेवरेज ही है।

उन्होंने बताया कि किसी को खाने में कोई चीज पसंद नहीं होती, तो किसी दूसरे को कोई दूसरी चीज। इसी वजह से शरीर में मिनरल्स की कमी हो जाती है जिसे इस फूड सप्लीमेंट के जरिए पूरा किया जा सकता है। उन्होंने बताया कि मुम्बई के  हरदीप सिंह के माध्यम से पूरे देश में तथा उमेश गुप्ता के माध्यम से चंडीगढ़ में वितरण किया जा रहा हैं। इस प्रोडक्ट की कीमत के बारे में जानकारी देते हुए उन्होंने बताया की इसकी 10 ग्राम मात्रा की डिब्बी ₹ 9000/- में उपलब्ध है। इस मिश्रण का एक छोटा चम्मच एक पूरी बोतल पानी में घोलना होता है। ऐसी 60 बोतलें 10 ग्राम पाउडर से तैयार हो जाती हैं। रोजाना एक बोतल पानी तैयार करके 4 घंटे के भीतर पीना होता है। कुछ ही दिन में शरीर में सकारात्मक बदलाव दिखने लग जाते हैं। उन्होंने बताया कि भारत में यह बाकी मान्यताओं के साथ साथ  एफ एस एस ए आई से भी एप्रूव्ड है। इसके चमत्कारी प्रभावों के बारे में बताते हुए उन्होंने जानकारी दी कि बेंगलुरु में 80 वर्ष के जाने-माने हार्ट सर्जन डॉक्टर श्रीनिवासन पैरालिसिस के कारण चलने-फिरने से भी लाचार थे परंतु इस हेल्थ सप्लीमेंट के सेवन के बाद वे अपने आप सीढ़ियां चढ़ने-उतरने लग गए हैं। इसके अलावा इसके नियमित  सेवन व घोल को  जख़्मों पर लगाने से ज़ख्म जल्द व चर्म रोग से पीड़ित रोगियों को भी लाभ होता पाया गया है।
