INDIA NEWS | Sun, 28 Jun 2026, 2:12PM IST Beirut: Hezbollah Secretary-General Sheikh Naim Qassem has issued a blistering rejection of the newly signed framework agreement between the Lebanese authorities and Israel, formally declaring the pact "null and void."In a statement issued following the announcement of the US-mediated deal, Qassem characterised the agreement as a "humiliating" and "shameful" surrender of Lebanese sovereignty that prioritises Israeli and American dictates over the nation's independence.The Hezbollah leader centred his critique on the claim that the agreement bypasses the superior protections offered by a separate Memorandum of Understanding between Iran and the US. According to Qassem, the MoU, which he described as a "gift of honour, dignity, and strength," stipulated an immediate, permanent cessation of hostilities, complete Israeli withdrawal and guaranteed Lebanon's territorial integrity.Read More: What challenges lie ahead for the US-Israel-Lebanon agreement?"The authorities are legitimizing the occupation for many years to come, and this could even lead to the annexation of these lands to the Zionist entity! This is an agreement that deprives the Lebanese of their right to return to their land. What business does the Israeli enemy have interfering in our internal affairs in Lebanon? Any agreement must be confined to the area south of the LitRiver and have no connection to any internal Lebanese matter concerning weapons, security, or the future of the country," he stated.Linking an Israeli withdrawal to the disarmament of the resistance throughout Lebanon is a very dangerous proposition that crosses all red lines and makes Lebanon a pawn in the hands of the Israeli enemy!He urged international and Arab pressure to be applied to force the Israeli enemy to adhere to this timeline, dismissing any agreement that links withdrawal to the internal disarmament of the resistance as a dangerous violation of Lebanon's right to self-defence.Qassem further launched a sharp attack on the Lebanese government, accusing officials of acting against the will of a significant portion of the population and violating the constitution by engaging in direct negotiations with what he termed the "Zionist enemy entity."He argued that the authorities possess no leverage in these talks because they "willingly abandoned the power of the resistance" and "stabbed the resistance in the back" through previous government decisions."We told the authorities that direct negotiations are nothing but gratuitous concessions to Israel, because they are meetings designed to force submission to the demands of aggression and the dictates of Israel and the United States. You are going to these meetings in hostility and disagreement with more than half of the Lebanese people, and in violation of the constitution and laws that consider the Israeli entity an enemy and hold accountable, legally, anyone who deals with it in word or deed. You have no leverage to fight with because you willingly abandoned the power of the resistance and the people, and you stabbed the resistance in the back by declaring it an outlaw in the heart of the war, from the very first moment," he stated."Where is the integrity of the Lebanese authorities and their responsibility towards their people and the protection of Lebanon's sovereignty, which the American guardian did not grant them a ceasefire, and when it came to them from the Pakistan talks between America and Iran in April 2026, they rejected it, which made the Israeli enemy commit the crime of Black Wednesday in which hundreds were killed and wounded, people were terrorized, and destruction was caused by one hundred air raids across Lebanon, starting from the capital, Beirut?" he asked.He further expressed deep alarm over the agreement's mechanisms, particularly the provision for a pilot program in two zones near the "Yellow Line," where the Lebanese Army would operate under Israeli monitoring. Qassem warned that this effectively legitimises a long-term occupation."What is this appalling blunder? What is this grave sin of surrendering sovereignty to the Israeli enemy? Netanyahu is allowing the Lebanese army to operate in two experimental zones! The enemy is monitoring its deployment and disarmament steps, and the tripartite committee is complying with the enemy's demands. The experimental period in these two zones could last for months, and no further experimentation will occur without a certificate of good conduct from the Israeli enemy and the implementation of what Israel failed to achieve on the ground!" he questioned.Qaseem signalled that Hezbollah intends to continue its operations, claiming that the current ceasefire does not diminish its right to defend the country.Read More: Hezbollah rejects US-brokered Israel-Lebanon security deal as 'surrender'"We will pursue all necessary means and exert international and Arab pressure to compel the Israeli enemy to abide by the first clause of the Memorandum of Understanding and withdraw from Lebanon," Qassem declared.He concluded the statement by urging Lebanese authorities to "retract your sins" and inviting them to cooperate on a national security strategy that prioritises the liberation of land and the return of displaced citizens, while reaffirming that Hezbollah would "continue as a resistance in the field to defeat the occupation."This follows the formal signing of the trilateral framework agreement by the United States, Israel and Lebanon on Friday.The accord, concluded after several days of intense deliberations in Washington, represents a major breakthrough aimed at ceasing hostilities between Israel and the Iran-backed Hezbollah group, though officials from both sides termed it merely an initial step towards a wider settlement.

"We are planning a capital raise through equity dilution next financial year," Progcap co-founder Himanshu Chandra told PTI. It would be through private placement of shares, and the quantum could be in the range of USD 40-45 million, depending on the valuation, he said. "We have enough capital to take care of growth needs for the current financial year. We may look at dilution of equity next financial year," he said, adding that the dilution would be in the single digit. The fintech firm, which obtained an NBFC licence in 2022, has been witnessing very high growth in MSME lending, especially wholesalers and retailers.

INDIA NEWS | Sun, 28 Jun 2026, 1:40PM IST Government policy measures and changes in the tax treatment of various financial products have made equities increasingly attractive compared with other investment options, a JP Morgan equity research report said, adding that the trend is likely to support sustained inflows into Indian capital markets. The report said policy and taxation changes have strengthened the case for equity investing even as market returns remained subdued over the past two years. "Policy and tax are also supportive: equity is taxed at 12.5% LTCG, and the removal of indexation, taxation of insurance policy proceeds, and slab-rate taxation for debt mutual funds improves equity's relative appeal," the report said. According to JP Morgan, these structural policy changes, along with rising participation through Systematic Investment Plans (SIPs), are expected to continue supporting inflows into equity markets. "The inflows should continue due to tax and policy," the report said. The report noted that despite weak equity market returns and heavy selling by foreign portfolio investors over FY25 and FY26, domestic investors have continued to channel money into mutual funds through SIPs, reflecting a long-term shift in household savings towards financial assets. JP Morgan said the favourable policy environment has reinforced this structural trend by improving the attractiveness of equity investments relative to debt-oriented products and certain insurance investments. The report also highlighted that SIPs have emerged as the dominant source of equity fund inflows, helping cushion domestic markets against external volatility. Looking ahead, the global investment bank believes India's capital markets will continue to benefit from the ongoing financialisation of household savings, supported by policy measures and a steady rise in retail participation. However, it cautioned that the investment thesis would weaken if monthly SIP inflows remain below Rs 250 billion for a sustained period or if regulatory changes lead to a more than 20 per cent decline in derivatives trading volumes.

INDIA NEWS | Sun, 28 Jun 2026, 12:05PM IST New Delhi: Employers across the globe continue to have confidence in MBA degrees amid concerns whether artificial intelligence (AI) would make business school graduates redundant, according to a new report by Graduate Management Admission Council (GMAC).The report is based on an annual survey of global corporate recruiters by GMAC, known for conducting the GMAT exam and an umbrella body of leading business schools from across the globe.Across industries, more than half of employers agreed or strongly agreed that a graduate business degree is more important than ever as businesses adopt new technologies. However, one area of common concern being flagged by employers, which has grown harder to ignore, is professionalism.The survey drew responses from 621 recruiters and hiring managers across 39 countries, just over half of them at Global Fortune 500 companies, among the world's largest by revenue.Everyone reported at least some confidence in graduate management education, the umbrella term for MBA and the shorter, more specialised business master's degrees in fields such as finance, management and data analytics."In 2025, 99 per cent of employers expressed at least some degree of confidence in GME's ability to prepare graduates to be successful in their organisations. In 2026, not one respondent indicated they have no confidence, revealing the enduring value that employers believe GME provides to industry," the report said.When asked why they are confident in GME graduates, employers were found much more likely to cite the ability to handle the complex global business environment."In fact, this grew from the seventh to the most common reason employers selected, with nearly three-quarters of respondents appreciating GME graduates' capacity to thrive amid global complexity in 2026. The sizeable year-over-year growth was true regardless of an employer's region or industry."Though the capability to handle complex global environments was the only statistically significant change, there were some small declines in confidence attributed to several of the core business school skills discussed previously, such as communication and strategic thinking skills," it said.The report cited employers' opinion that in an era when AI can generate content, analyse data, and automate routine tasks, the distinctly human capabilities of communication, adaptability, and emotional intelligence have become harder to replicate-and, therefore, more valuable."For business schools, the most pressing implication is not simply that programs should teach AI skills (though that gap is real and growing). It is that schools must prepare graduates to operate with confidence at the intersection of technological fluency and human judgment," it said."More than half of global employers agreed that the skills gained through a business degree are more important than before for businesses that are now using remote or hybrid work, particularly in the technology, manufacturing, and healthcare and pharmaceutical industries," it added.Even as employer confidence in GME remains strong overall, one area of concern has grown harder to ignore - professionalism."Employers were asked whether today's GME graduates demonstrate the same level of professionalism (defined in the survey as reliability, respectfulness, accountability and professional appearance) as graduates from previous years, and the results point to a meaningful shift in perception. Among all respondents, there was a statistically significant decline in the number of employers who thought today's GME graduates demonstrated the same level of professionalism as graduates from previous years," the report said."Though the year-over-year differences by industry and region are within the margin of error, the decline was seen across sectors (excluding products and services), with technology employers still the most satisfied with today's graduates - workplace etiquette and consulting and manufacturing employers the least satisfied," it added.

The government is increasingly using technology to simplify compliance, particularly for micro, small and medium enterprises (MSMEs), while integrating GST, income tax and customs databases to improve risk assessment, curb tax evasion, and reduce manual intervention. GST implementation helped broaden the tax base, strengthened compliance and increased revenues, making the indirect tax regime one of India's most significant economic reforms. Introduced on July 1, 2017, GST replaced a complex system of 17 central and state taxes and 13 cesses with a unified indirect tax framework. The reform, rolled out after years of negotiations between the Centre and states, was aimed at creating a common national market and

INDIA NEWS | Sun, 28 Jun 2026, 11:24AM IST A new generation of small nuclear reactors is up and running -- or nearly so -- in the United States, in what backers are calling a turning point for the industry.The milestone, made possible by billions in private and government funding, was on display in the middle of the Idaho desert, where a cluster of drab hangars might otherwise go unnoticed.But the presence of heavily armed soldiers, security checkpoints, and signs warning of radioactivity are anything but ordinary.It was here, at the Idaho National Laboratory (INL), that startup Antares on June 4 became the first company to run a new-design nuclear reactor in the US in nearly 50 years."This is the first real moment in this new nuclear renaissance," said Jordan Bramble, CEO of Antares.Aalo Atomics, another participant in the program launched in 2025 under President Donald Trump, is set to do the same in the coming days -- also here in Idaho, just hours before a presidential target date: July 4 and the nation's 250th anniversary.Meanwhile, on June 18, another startup, Valar Atomics, hit the same milestone in Utah, reaching what is known as criticality -- the point at which a reactor can sustain its own nuclear chain reaction.After developing more than 50 reactor prototypes -- including the world's first to feed electricity into the grid, in 1951 -- INL had pressed pause following accidents at Three Mile Island in the US and Chernobyl in current day Ukraine.Then came the war in Ukraine, followed by the AI boom -- putting the energy sector under severe strain and leading both Joe Biden and Donald Trump to revive civilian nuclear power.'Simpler'Billions of dollars in both private and public funding have already been mobilized to develop these small modular reactors (SMRs) -- compact enough that one was transported to the site towed by a pickup truck.SMRs promise cheaper, faster-to-build nuclear power that can go almost anywhere -- from remote military bases to power-hungry data centers. But they have yet to be proven at commercial scale, and some analysts doubt they can compete on cost with wind and solar.Beyond financial support, the government has put INL's facilities and staff -- who have accumulated nearly 80 years of experience -- at the disposal of the selected companies.The new reactors also use different technology from conventional plants, ruling out the kind of cascading disasters seen at Three Mile Island and Chernobyl, and allowing for far simpler, cheaper construction."The whole plant can get simpler. We don't need to have several feet thick of concrete and steel line containment," said Yasir Arafat, President and CTO of Aalo Atomics.'Golden age'Even as the pace has sharply accelerated, Tori Shivanandan, President and COO of Radiant Nuclear, does not want regulatory shortcuts.The team at the lab, "they hold the line, and we want them to, because ultimately, if we don't make safe products, we'll never sell reactors," she said.Reaching criticality is not the same as being ready for commercial use.The reactor designs -- whose prototypes operate under a special government waiver -- still need to be cleared by the US nuclear regulator, the NRC.But Energy Secretary Chris Wright, speaking to AFP at a "celebration of the golden age of nuclear energy" in Idaho Falls, was bullish on the timeline."We'll have hundreds by the end of the decade. In fact, our aggressive goal is we will have some of these reactors producing electricity for beneficial use next year," he said.If all goes according to plan, Radiant's first SMRs will go to US military sites, as will Antares's, while Aalo is targeting data centers.Nuclear power is also positioning itself as a tool for American influence abroad, with China the only other country operating an SMR."Every country I go to asks about the next-generation American nuclear technology. I say...it's happening right now," Wright said."This will be a massive American export a decade from now," he added.
