2.Chinese people support Tibet’s independence demand, press conference in Dharamsala:-
A delegation of Chinese people came to India to hold a press conference in support of the demand of Tibetans in Dharamsala. This press conference was held on the occasion of the 60th anniversary of raising the voice by Tibetans against China. Let us know that these people who come to the delegation are basically resident of China and live in many other countries of Europe. Tibetans living in Dharamsala and other parts of the world demand that they get freedom from China.
Decades ago, China had forcibly occupied Tibet territory. In 1959, China occupied Tibet. Meanwhile, the Dalai Lama had to come to India from there and since then he has been living in India. Thousands of people who sought the independence of Tibet with the Nobel Peace Prize winner Dalai Lama and after that also came to India. These people of Tibet, ousted from their own land, made Dharamshala their home in Himachal Pradesh.
Talking about history, the Tibet region (U-sang) was declared independent in 1913 after the Jhenai Revolution in 1912 against the King Rajshahi. The people here declared themselves as a free country, but China did not recognize this independence. Later, Lhasa occupied Zikang, the western region of China. By 1951, this whole region was an autonomous region and then the battle of Chamda took place, in which the Chinese army captured Lhasa and merged Tibet with China. In 1959, Tibet raised voice again against China’s suppression and demanded independence. It has been 60 years since the demand for independence, but Tibet is still in occupation of China and Tibetans have lived in Dharamshala, Delhi and many cities around the world hoping to return to their country.

4.RBI will give interest rates before elections, these two financial data will decide:-
The January IIP and February inflation data will determine whether the Reserve Bank of India (RBI) will cut interest rates in its next meeting.
Prior to the elections going out on April 11, on April 5, a meeting of monetary review committee headed by RBI governor Shaktikant Das is scheduled to decide on interest rates.
In the previous meeting, the RBI had cut 25 basis points in the repo rate, after which economists had estimated the interest rates cut in the next meeting of the Reuters poll. Most economists in the Reuters poll believed that interest rates can be cut again in the RBI meeting before the general elections.
In the previous meeting, unexpectedly, the RBI reduced the repo rate by 25 basis points and cut it from 6.50 per cent to 6.25 per cent.
Simultaneously, the central bank has changed its monetary stance from “hard” to “normal / neutral”. It was believed only after the change in policy stance that the RBI could further ease the interest rate cut.
According to the data released by the Central Statistics Office, retail inflation in January was down to 2.05 percent, from 2.11 percent in December. In December, the IIP growth rate was 2.4 percent, which was 0.3 percent in November.
In December, IIP got a great improvement.
RBI has set a target of inflation for 4 percent (+ – two percent). With the fall in fuel prices, the country’s retail inflation declined to 2.19 percent in December. It was 2.33 percent in November. In the last few months, the rate of inflation has been below the fixed target of R.B.E. When deciding interest rates, RBI keeps retail inflation in mind.
If both figures remain as expected, then before the election, the RBI can once again give relief of interest rates cut, which will benefit the customers. Recently, SBI has added loan rates to the RBI’s repo rate.
This initiative of SBI is for a loan of more than Rs 1 lakh and its advantage will be that as soon as the RBI cuts the rates, the interest rates offered by the bank will be reduced by immediate effect.
In the December quarter, the pace of Indian economy has been a major setback. After the December quarter GDP figures, the government has reduced the GDP estimates to 7 percent for the current fiscal. Earlier this estimate was of 7.2 percent.
India has reduced this estimate in a time when the GDP has declined for the second consecutive quarter. However, even after this deduction, India will remain the world’s fastest growing economy.
After the fall in GDP, it is believed that the full focus of the RBI in the next review meeting will be on growth rather than inflation.
