Good morning, I am Joy. Here is your briefing on the latest national and business developments.
* *Para 2: Oil India.*
In energy news, Oil India Limited has reported a natural gas discovery at the Sri Vijayapuram-3 exploratory well off the east coast of the Andaman Islands. This marks the second well in the block to confirm hydrocarbon presence. Petroleum Minister Hardeep Singh Puri congratulated the company, noting that this discovery reinforces an ocean of energy opportunities in the Andaman Sea.
* *Para 3: Business/Finance.*
Turning to finance, the RBI has announced it will bear the full hedging cost on new three-to-five-year Foreign Currency Non-Resident Bank deposits mobilized by banks until September 30. Governor Sanjay Malhotra stated this move aims to help banks increase deposit rates for non-resident and OCI depositors. Meanwhile, a fresh complaint has been filed with the Maharashtra Charity Commissioner seeking an inquiry into an unlawful 1989 share transfer from the Navajbai Ratan Tata Trust to Naval Hormusji Tata, allegedly occurring after he was no longer a trustee.
* *Para 4: CBSE.*
In national news, the CBSE has filed a formal complaint with the Delhi Police regarding a series of sophisticated, coordinated cyberattacks on its re-evaluation portal. While the attacks originated from both within and outside India, the board confirmed that no data was compromised and the attacks were successfully mitigated. Consequently, the portal's launch has been rescheduled from May 29 to June 2.
* *Para 5: TMC Politics.*
In West Bengal, the Trinamool Congress is preparing to move the Calcutta High Court against the Assembly Speaker’s decision to appoint expelled MLA Ritabrata as Leader of Opposition, which the party deems illegal. This comes amid a significant internal crisis; in a recent meeting called by Mamata Banerjee, only eight out of 80 MLAs attended.
* *Para 6: CJP Politics.*
Regarding the planned protest in Delhi by the Cockroach Janta Party, the group has issued a list of guidelines for participants, advising them to carry the Tricolour and a book while recording all activities
