Reserve Bank of India Governor Sanjay Malhotra held the benchmark repo rate steady at 5.5 percent on Wednesday while maintaining a neutral monetary policy position. The central bank upgraded its economic growth forecast to 6.8 percent from 6.5 percent based on strong domestic consumption and favorable monsoon conditions. Officials lowered their inflation projection to 2.6 percent for the 2025-26 fiscal year after food costs dropped sharply and goods and services tax reductions took effect. Malhotra said policymakers want time to assess how the earlier rate cuts, totaling 100 basis points since February, affect lending and economic activity before making further adjustments.

Anshuman Jha reimagined two Ludwig van Beethoven compositions for his directorial debut, Lord Curzon Ki Haveli, featuring Rasika Dugal and Arjun Mathur. Belgian composer Simon Fransquet collaborated on modern versions of Fur Elise and Symphony No. 5 that distort the originals rather than reproduce them faithfully. The black comedy thriller filmed entirely in Britain on a single lens faced Indian censorship delays exceeding six months before its October 10 release.
Jha explained that classical music creates tension in contrast to the chaotic narrative, while Fransquet described scratching and screaming violin arrangements that transform recognizable melodies. Golden Ratio Films and First Ray Films produced the chamber drama, with MAX...
P. Chidambaram said he favored striking back at Pakistan after the 2008 Mumbai attacks but the government chose diplomacy instead. The Congress leader became home minister one day after the assault when Shivraj Patil resigned and Dr. Manmohan Singh transferred him from finance. American Secretary of State Condoleezza Rice flew to Delhi, urging India against military action as international powers pressured the administration to avoid war.
Chidambaram admitted his unfamiliarity with security operations when taking office and learned about intelligence gaps over subsequent months. He rejected claims the Singh government was weak on terrorism while acknowledging his personal preference for retaliation. The former minister said comparing...
Federal operations ceased after Congress failed to approve spending legislation. Senate Democrats on Tuesday rejected Republican proposals while both parties refused to compromise on healthcare provisions in earlier budget agreements.

The stoppage marks the first since 2019, when a 35-day freeze became the longest in American history. Air travel may suffer if unpaid workers abandon their posts during an extended...
