INDIA NEWS | Sun, 19 Apr 2026, 10:40AM IST Saudi Arabia has barred all visit visa holders from performing Hajj this year, allowing entry to Mecca and holy sites only for those with an official permit. The move comes as authorities tighten rules ahead of the pilgrimage season and enforce penalties for violations. The Ministry of Interior said the restriction applies during the Hajj period, which runs from the start of Dhu Al Qidah until the 14th of Dhu Al Hijjah. During this time, only authorised pilgrims will be allowed to enter Mecca and surrounding holy sites. Anyone attempting to enter or stay without a permit will be treated as violating the law. The decision is part of a wider plan to regulate pilgrim movement and ensure safety during the annual gathering. Strict penalties for violationsAuthorities have set strict penalties for violations. Visit visa holders attempting Hajj or entering restricted areas can face fines of up to 20,000 Saudi riyals. Residents and overstayers found performing Hajj without a permit will be deported and barred from re-entering the country for 10 years. The enforcement comes alongside deadlines for Umrah pilgrims. April 18, 2026, was the last day for Umrah visitors to leave Saudi Arabia. Staying beyond this date is considered a violation. Companies and service providers that fail to report overstayers may face fines of up to 100,000 riyals and further legal action. Umrah permits suspended during Hajj periodSaudi authorities have also suspended the issuance of Umrah permits through the Nusuk platform for citizens, residents and GCC nationals during the same period. This limits access to Mecca exclusively to authorised Hajj pilgrims. The Ministry of Interior said the measures are part of an operational plan to ensure safety, security and smooth movement of pilgrims. The campaign is being enforced under the slogan: No Hajj without a permit. Authorities have asked the public to follow the rules and report violations through emergency numbers 911 in Mecca, Medina, Riyadh and the Eastern Province, and 999 in other regions. In a separate case, police in Mecca arrested a Sudanese resident for allegedly promoting fake entry permits through social media. Authorities said legal action has been taken and the case has been referred to the Public Prosecution. The Ministry of Hajj and Umrah said pilgrims and service providers must follow official procedures, adding that performing Hajj without a permit is a clear violation. It said compliance is important to maintain safety standards and manage crowds during the pilgrimage.

INDIA NEWS | Sun, 19 Apr 2026, 9:49AM IST Rajouri (Jammu and Kashmir): The border sub-division of Nowshera in Jammu and Kashmir's Rajouri district is witnessing a significant wave of development, particularly in road and bridge connectivity and infrastructure, bringing long-awaited relief to residents of the border areas.For years, people in Nowshera struggled with narrow, congested single-lane roads. However, these roads are now being upgraded into double-lane routes with proper blacktopping.One of the key projects includes a 3-kilometre road being developed at an estimated cost of Rs 8 crore, with a width of 10 metres.The project is expected to greatly ease traffic movement and improve overall connectivity in the area.Also Read: J&K admin takes over 58 schools linked to banned JeI and its trustLocal residents have expressed satisfaction, stating that such large-scale development is being witnessed after nearly four decades. Improved infrastructure is also expected to boost employment opportunities, as better connectivity will encourage people to open businesses and expand economic activities in the region.The benefits extend beyond convenience. Students and patients, who earlier faced hardships due to poor road conditions, are likely to experience smoother and faster travel.Additionally, several bridges are under construction in areas where connectivity was previously lacking.A notable project is the bridge being constructed between Nowshera and Seri Block, a border area. This bridge, which has been a long-pending demand of the public, is progressing rapidly and is expected to significantly enhance connectivity between the two regions.Residents have credited the ongoing development to Deputy Chief Minister Surinder Kumar Choudhary, noting that his focused attention on Nowshera has accelerated infrastructure growth in the area.The visible progress has generated optimism and excitement among the people, who see it as a step towards better living conditions and economic growth.Also Read: Over 40,000 manuscripts identified in J&K under Gyan Bharatam MissionMeanwhile, the Block Programme Manager, Aftab Ahmad of the Rajouri district, praised the flagship programme of the Government of India, the National Rural Livelihoods Mission (NRLM), which is implemented there under the name 'Umeed'.He informed that there are at least 9,000 members associated with the programme and 1,100 Self-Help Groups (SHGs).

INDIA NEWS | Sun, 19 Apr 2026, 9:40AM IST Benchmark indices Nifty and Sensex are likely to open on a strong note on Monday, extending gains for a second straight session, after GIFT Nifty surged more than 250 points on Saturday.Markets had already ended the previous week over 2% higher on Friday, as bulls continued to recoup March losses amid improving sentiment. Hopes of an earlier-than-expected resolution to the IranUS conflict, along with other supportive factors, have helped drive the ongoing recovery after the sharp selloff seen in March.Here are 6 factors that will drive Indian stock market next week:Iran war ending soon?The optimism among investors amid rising expectations of the raging war between Iran and US ending soon. A 10-day ceasefire between Lebanon and Israel took effect, and US President Donald Trump said that officials from Washington and Tehran may meet for talks on the weekend.Additionally, Trump said that Iran has agreed not to possess nuclear weapons for more than 20 years, addressing a major sticking point that has been acting as a major obstacle to earlier attempts to establish peace in the region.Oil well below $100: In a significant relief for global economies and financial markets, Iran announced that the Strait of Hormuz, the worlds most critical oil transit route, is now completely open to all commercial vessels and will remain so for the duration of the ceasefire. The development comes as U.S. President Donald Trump said an agreement to end the U.S.-Israeli conflict with Iran was very close.Brent crude futures dropped $9.01, or 9.07%, to settle at $90.38 a barrel, after touching an intraday low of $86.09. U.S. West Texas Intermediate crude fell $10.48, or 11.45%, to close at $83.85 a barrel, after slipping to a session low of $80.56.Major Q4 earnings: HDFC Bank, ICICI Bank and Yes Bank declared their March quarter earnings on Saturday. HDFC Bank, Indias leading private lender, reported a net profit of Rs 19,221 crore in the March quarter, marking an increase of 9% from Rs 17,616 crore reported in the corresponding quarter of the previous financial year.ICICI Bank, one of Indias leading private lenders, on Saturday reported a net profit of Rs 13,702 crore in the fourth quarter of FY26, marking an increase of 8.5% year-on-year from Rs 12,630 crore reported in the same quarter last year.Private Lender Yes Bank reported a strong performance in its Q4 results, with net profit rising 44.8% year-on-year to Rs 1,068.4 crore, compared to Rs 738 crore in the same period last year.Rupee strength: Indian rupee extended gains against the US dollar. The Indian currency gained 0.3% to close at 92.9250, after touching a one-week high of 92.66 in early trading. After hitting a record low of 95.21 per dollar on March 30, the rupee has recovered as RBI tapped crisis-era tools to shore up the currency which had been battered by foreign portfolio outflows and risks to India's current account balance during the raging war in the Middle East.Immediate support lies near Rs 92.28, with a stronger base at Rs 91.91 a break below which could bring the trendline structure into question and expose the Rs 91.05 zone. On the upside, resistance is placed at Rs 93.50Rs 93.68, with a stronger supply cluster near Rs 94 expected to cap any Dollar recovery. The near-term bias remains constructive supported by easing geopolitical headwinds, experts warn.Charts show promise: Nifty 50 is currently in a recovery phase, consolidating within the 24,10024,400 range, reflecting improving sentiment along with a gradual pickup in momentum. Immediate resistance is placed near the 24,400 zone, and a sustained breakout above this level could extend the rally towards the 24,80025,000 range. On the downside, immediate support is seen near the 24,000 level, followed by a stronger base around 23,800, which continues to act as a key demand zone. Momentum indicators are improving, with RSI trending higher near the 57 mark; however, confirmation of a sustained uptrend will require a decisive breakout above resistance levels, Ponmudi R, CEO of Enrich Money said.FII buys for 3 straight days: Foreign investors remained net buyers of India equities for the third consecutive session on Friday, net purchasing shares worth Rs 683 crore during an extremely volatile session. FII have overall bought Indian equities worth more than Rs 1,500 crore during the three days between April 15-17.Looking ahead, institutional activity is expected to be driven by a mix of global and domestic factors, with developments in USIran negotiations remaining a key monitorable due to their potential impact on geopolitical stability and global energy marketsany progress or setbacks could trigger volatility in crude oil prices. Additionally, the trajectory of quarterly corporate earnings will play a crucial role in shaping investor sentiment, sectoral allocation, and the broader direction of equity markets in the near term.(Disclaimer: Recommendations, suggestions, views and opinions given by the experts are their own.

INDIA NEWS | Sun, 19 Apr 2026, 8:37AM IST The cumulative global impact of seven weeks of war in the Middle East will begin to emerge in the coming week, in a second round of business surveys from multiple countries. Whether the twin blows affecting growth and inflation seen in purchasing manager indexes after the first month of the Iran conflict intensified during month two will be a key focus. The initial take for April in economies from Australia to the US will be published on Thursday. Among those covered by Bloomberg forecasts, indexes in Germany, France, the euro zone and the UK are all anticipated to show broad deterioration, while the American indicators are seen little changed.130364444Ultimately, the numbers may point to the degree that stagflation is lurking. That ominous term evoking the noxious mix of surging prices and stalling growth of the 1970s was cited by Chris Williamson, chief business economist at PMI-compiler S&P Global, when summing up risks highlighted by the overall global measure in March.The survey numbers follow a week of bleak stock-taking in Washington, where finance chiefs were warned by the International Monetary Fund of a range of potential outcomes that included a near-recession for the world. Notwithstanding the current Middle East ceasefire, the damage to growth and inflation cant be easily undone.Even if the war ends tomorrow, it would take quite some time for the recovery to kick in, IMF Managing Director Kristalina Georgieva told Bloomberg Television. The impact is already baked in.For all the gloom, multiple policymakers remain cautious about how to respond. European Central Bank chief economist Philip Lane described how he and his colleagues may treat reports such as the PMIs when they set interest rates later this month.We will have a rich set of survey data, Lane said in Washington. Of course, the people who are answering those surveys are looking at the same world we are looking at. And for now, not many will have a decisive idea about whats going to happen, he added. ECB officials will also get French business confidence on Thursday and Germanys closely watched Ifo business climate gauge on Friday. Their Federal Reserve peers will see the University of Michigans sentiment index, also at the end of the week.But as Georgieva warned, even the most holistic analysis of the global economy by policymakers has its limits for now. We all need to learn to operate in an environment of high and permanent uncertainty, she said.Elsewhere, a possible war-driven pickup in inflation numbers from Canada to the UK to South Africa, plus interest-rate decisions from Turkey to Indonesia, may be among the highlights. 130364451US and CanadaThe weeks marquee US economic data release will be retail sales. Economists project a sizable jump in overall sales for March, largely due to sharply increased spending on gasoline. The figures arent adjusted for price changes, and drivers experienced costlier fill-ups because of the Iran war.Excluding gasoline and autos, however, economists anticipate Tuesdays report will signal more tepid demand as high fuel costs prompted budget-constrained consumers to squeeze spending on other things. While the average price of gas has declined since earlier this month, it remains around $4 a gallon.S&P Globals preliminary April PMIs come on Thursday, followed a day later by the University of Michigans final consumer sentiment index for April. The preliminary reading set a record low. Meanwhile, Kevin Warsh will appear before the Senate Banking committee on Tuesday in what may be the most anticipated confirmation hearing for a Fed chair nominee in decades. Investors will listen closely for how Warsh conceives of monetary policy that hews to President Donald Trumps demands for lower interest rates while not alarming traders still wary of inflation, especially amid a war-driven oil price shock.Looking north, economists expect Canadas headline inflation to have jumped to 2.6% in March from 1.8%, driven by gas prices. Still, food inflation a persistent pressure point for Canadians is projected to ease slightly as a base-year distortion from last years sales tax holiday rolls out of the data. The Bank of Canadas business outlook and consumer expectations surveys for the first quarter will offer important insight into how firms and households see the oil price shock shaping investment, labor markets, and inflation dynamics.AsiaInflation risks tied to the global energy shock will dominate Asias economic calendar in the coming week, with price data and business surveys set to test how quickly higher costs are feeding through. Chinas loan prime rate decision on Monday is expected to deliver no change, as policymakers balance support for growth against currency pressures. Trade data from New Zealand, Japan, Thailand and Malaysia over the week will offer an early read on external demand. Indias infrastructure output is also due.Focus turns Tuesday to New Zealands first-quarter inflation print, a key input for the central banks policy outlook.130364460Indonesias rate decision on Wednesday is expected to see policymakers stand pat as they weigh currency stability against rising imported inflation.Thursday brings the weeks heaviest data flow. PMI readings from Australia, Japan and India will provide a timely read on business conditions, while inflation data from Singapore, Hong Kong and Japan will offer early evidence of the pass-through from higher energy prices. The Philippines central bank is expected to raise its benchmark rate by 25 basis points to 4.5%, underscoring a tightening bias in parts of the region. South Koreas consumer confidence reading will also be closely watched for signs of strain on households.Japans department store sales and leading indicators round out the week, offering a gauge of the resilience of domestic demand and the near-term outlook.Europe, Middle East, AfricaA slew of UK numbers will offer a glimpse of the health of the economy at a time when Prime Minister Keir Starmer remains mired in crisis. Data on Tuesday may reveal weakening pay pressures in the three months through February, just before the war broke out. Inflation the following day is predicted to have jumped to 3.3% in March from 3%, as the Iran conflict drove up energy prices.In the euro zone, ECB President Christine Lagarde is among speakers on the schedule before a pre-decision quiet period kicks in. Belgium, which was just cut by Moodys Ratings, could face another downgrade on Friday after a review by S&P Global Ratings.130364472It will be a big week for the Swiss National Bank with two appearances by officials early before first-quarter results drop on Thursday. The central banks annual general meeting takes place the following day, led by President Martin Schlegel. In South Africa, Reserve Bank Governor Lesetja Kganyago will speak at the release of the Monetary Policy Review on Tuesday and at a roadshow on Wednesday, as policymakers assess the inflationary fallout from the Iran conflict. Surging oil prices driven by the war are expected to add to price pressures, with the first inflation reading since the conflict, due Wednesday, seen quickening slightly to 3.1% from 3% in February.Turning to monetary decisions, most analysts surveyed by Bloomberg forecast that Turkeys central bank will hold its main rate at 37% for a second straight meeting on Wednesday. That would further pause easing as higher energy prices caused by the Iran war add to inflationary pressures. Three out of 11 economists surveyed say the bank will reverse course, however, raising rates by 300 basis points. And in Russia, central bank policymakers on Friday will weigh whether to continue easing amid heightened uncertainty over potential inflation risks. Latin AmericaTwo of the regions smaller inflation-targeting central banks hold monetary policy meetings in the coming week.130364477Banco Central del Uruguay has lowered borrowing costs at seven straight meetings, taking its key rate down to the current 5.75%.Inflation has come in below target for eight consecutive months, hitting a near seven-decade low of 2.94% in March.Paraguays central bank kept its key rate unchanged at 5.5% in March after consecutive quarter-point cuts. Since then, the March inflation report showed that the annual print had slowed to 1.9% from 2.3% in February.130364490Colombian GDP-proxy data for February may show a modest rebound from January, though analysts have been marking down 2026 growth forecasts. The consensus looks for a 2.6% expansion, in line with last year.Substantial inflationary pressures, pre-dating the outbreak of war in the Middle East, will see the central bank continue to tighten, posing additional headwinds to growth.In Argentina, GDP-proxy data will again likely highlight uneven growth dogging South Americas No. 2 economy the energy and mining industries thriving, while construction and manufacturing sputter that has analysts marking down their 2026 GDP forecasts. Consumer confidence and trade figures are also on tap.130364492Once the dust settles at the end of the coming week, Mexico watchers will be far better positioned to evaluate the wisdom of Banxicos quarter-point rate cut last month.Economic activity data for February may do little to dispel revived recession concerns headwinds include weaker US growth along with trade and tariff uncertainty while the early April consumer price figures may test the view that elevated inflation is supply-driven and temporary.

This achievement builds on the Comprehensive Migration and Mobility Partnership Agreement (CMMPA) signed in 2023, which entered into force in September that year, and demonstrates the translation of policy intent into tangible outcomes.Also Read: South Korea launches online hub to attract international studentsThis progress follows an earlier initiative led by Prime Minister Narendra Modi, under which the Austrian Government facilitated a visit by the Advantage Austria delegation of economists and trade representatives to New Delhi to advance bilateral economic cooperation. Together, these engagements signal a shared intent to deepen structured, future-facing collaboration across education, skills, and industry.Building on the government-to-government framework, the Focus India initiative brings together Austrian institutions, Indian students, and industry partners to create transparent and reliable pathways to high-quality international higher education. The collaboration aims to deepen academic partnerships, enable institutional cooperation, and strengthen crossborder mobility aligned with evolving global workforce needs.Austria continues to attract a growing number of Indian students in specialised, future-oriented disciplines such as sustainability, artificial intelligence, and advanced engineering. Engagement with leading technical universities including TU Wien, TU Graz, and TU Leoben reflects Austrias strong integration of education, research, and industry. Parallel efforts are under way to expand joint research programmes, faculty exchanges, and long-term institutional partnerships.Commenting on the momentum, a senior Austrian official noted, The Indian market is a very strong market in terms of potential students for Austria and Europe. Demography speaks for itself. She added that policy alone is insufficient without execution: In just one year, weve successfully enabled 200 students to study in Austria. Its remarkable how quickly this has come together, and theres much more to come.Also Read: UK universities warned against relying on international students as demand weakens despite recruitment pushAs an enabling partner, VFS Education Services plays a critical role in operationalising these ambitions, supporting governments and institutions with structured, endtoend education and mobility solutions. This collaboration is expected to significantly strengthen the AustriaIndia education and talent corridor, supporting innovation, workforce readiness, and sustained bilateral cooperation.Earlier a high-level delegation of 30 members from the Technical University (TU) of Leoben (Montanuniversitt Leoben) in Austria visited New Delhi on 7 February 2026 to strengthen Indo-Austrian collaboration in higher education, research, and academic mobility, facilitated through a strategic tie-up with VFS Education Services.
