When Covid cases in UK, USA& Israel fell when Vaccine drive just started, we were told this is vaccine success. When 2nd wave came in India after Vaccine drive started, we were told that this was because only small % were vaccinated! Same wave in 30+ countries when drive began. Now another 'wave' in UK, Israel&US, we are told this is because of deadly Delta Variant. When few are hospitalised in this wave, we are told, this is Vaccine success. Now it is found that most cases&hospitalisation is among the Vaxxed; we are told this is because old are Vaxxed!

Very disappointing Jt of the SC saying that there is no need for the court to order investigation into Rafale deal.Court says price seems OK on basis of govt's sealed cover, which was not shown to us. Today Caravan has revealed that Modi himself increased price from 5.2-7.8B Euro SC also accepted govt claim that selection of Ambani as offset partner was done by Dassalt and the government has no role in it, despite the fact that defence procurement procedures and offset guidelines require that all offset contracts must be approved by the Defence Minister!
