    • SECTION 1 - TEN NEWS HEADLINES
  1. Law & Constitution – Decision on Rajiv case convict soon, SC told – Tamil Nadu Governor Banwarilal Purohit will take a decision “as per the Constitution” in the next three or four days on a plea for release by A.G. Perarivalan, who is undergoing life imprisonment for the assassination of former Prime Minister Rajiv Gandhi in 1991, Solicitor-General Tushar Mehta orally informed the Supreme Court on January 21. The court, however, noted in its short order that the “Solicitor-General submitted that the application filed by the petitioner [Perarivalan] under Article 161 of the Constitution of India shall be considered within four weeks from today. List this matter after four weeks”. Reacting to the variation, senior advocate Gopal Sankaranarayanan said Perarivalan’s side was planning to mention the case in court for a clarification.
  2. World – Biden begins dismantling Trump legacy – The Biden presidency began with a flurry of activity, with the new President signing 17 executive orders, memos and directives on his first day in office, including on climate change, the pandemic, immigration and equality. Shortly after being sworn in as the President on January 20, Joe Biden began dismantling significant parts of the legacy of his predecessor, Donald Trump, including by officially bringing America back into the Paris Climate Accord. He conveyed his intent to UN Secretary-General Antonio Guterres via a letter. Consequently, the U.S. would be back in the agreement on February 19. Mr. Biden stopped the U.S.’s withdrawal from the World Health Organization. In a letter to Mr. Guterres, he highlighted the “crucial” role it plays in combating COVID-19 and other health challenges.
  3. Agriculture – Farmers reject proposal to suspend laws for 18 months – Protesting farm unions on January 21 rejected the Centre’s proposal to suspend the three farm reform laws for one-and-a-half years. They intend to continue their agitation until the laws are repealed, and a law guaranteeing minimum support price for crops is enacted. The decision was taken after a five-hour meeting of the full general body of the Samyukt Kisan Morcha, a joint front representing about 500 protesting groups, at the Singhu protest site on the Delhi-Haryana border in the evening. The unions will inform the government of their decision at the 11th round of talks with Central Ministers on January 22. Later in the evening, Agriculture Minister Narendra Singh Tomar met Home Minister Amit Shah at his residence.
  4. Economy – ‘GDP within striking distance of growth’ – The economy is within striking distance of attaining positive growth, officials of the Reserve Bank of India (RBI) wrote, adding that the letter ‘V’ in the V-shaped recovery stood for vaccine. The Centre unveiled a vaccination drive on January 16 to protect people from COVID-19. India’s vaccination drive is backed by its comparative advantage of having the largest vaccine manufacturing capacity in the world and a rich experience of mass inoculation drives against polio and measles. The views expressed in the article do not necessarily represent the central bank’s views, the RBI said. E-commerce and digital technologies will likely be the bright spots in a recovery in a world in which there will be rebounds for sure, but pre-pandemic levels of output and employment are a long way off, they said.
  5. World – Senate confirms Biden’s first Cabinet pick – Three new Senators were sworn into office on January 20 after President Joe Biden’s inauguration, securing the majority for Democrats in the Senate and across a unified government to tackle the new President’s agenda at a time of unprecedented national challenges. In a first vote, the Senate confirmed Mr. Biden’s nominee for Director of National Intelligence, Avril Haines. Senators worked into the evening and overcame some Republican opposition to approve his first Cabinet member, in what’s traditionally a show of good faith on Inauguration Day to confirm at least some nominees for a new President’s administration. Ms. Haines, a former CIA deputy director, will become a core member of Mr. Biden’s security team, overseeing the agencies that make up the nation’s intelligence community. She was confirmed 84-10.
  6. World – Google, French press ink copyright payments deal – Google and French newspapers have signed an agreement aimed at opening the path to digital copyright payments from the online giant after months of heated negotiations. The accord signed with the APIG alliance of French dailies involves “neighbouring rights,” which call for payment for showing news content with Internet searches. It said the agreement sets a framework for Google to negotiate individual licence agreements with newspapers on the payments and will give papers access to its new News Showcase programme, which sees it pay publishers for a selection of enriched content. Payments are to be calculated individually and will be based on criteria including internet viewing figures and the amount of information published.
  7. People & Personalities – Ex-Pond’s India CMD Narayanan passes away – V. Narayanan (83), who headed Pond’s India Ltd. prior to its merger with Hindustan Lever Ltd. (HLL) and later served on the board of HLL, passed away on January 21. An alumnus of Lawrence School at Lovedale and Loyola College, Narayanan began his career in 1959 as a management trainee in HLL (now HUL). In his 10 years there, he served in the sales and marketing functions, both in India and in the U.K. He returned to India in 1968 and joined Chesebrough Pond’s Inc. as marketing director. He became chairman and CEO of Pond’s (India) and served the company till 1997.
  8. Economy – Sri Lanka reopens for tourists – Sri Lanka has reopened its borders for foreign tourists after about 10 months, hoping to revive its pandemic-hit tourism sector. The Sri Lanka Tourism Promotion Bureau has set up what it calls a “Safe and Secure” bubble, mandating pre-departure PCR tests for tourists, restricting their stay to designated high-end hotels and beach resorts, and allowing access to select tourist spots, to limit visitors from mixing with the local community. As per the arrangement, Sri Lanka does not require tourists to stay for a minimum number of days, while visitors are offered a “quarantine free” experience.
  9. Covid-19 – India to clear vaccine exports to Brazil today – Brazil is set to receive the go-ahead from the Indian government on January 22 to collect two million doses of the Covishield vaccine made by the Serum Institute, two weeks after Brazilian President Jair Bolsonaro requested PM Modi for their “urgent” clearance. The consignment, which was due to be collected by a special Brazilian plane last week, was delayed as the government had not yet finalised its plans for exports of Indian-made vaccines. The delay had led to a flurry of messages from Brazil, and External Affairs Minister S. Jaishankar had spoken to his Brazilian counterpart Ernesto Araujo to reassure him on January 16.
  10. Covid-19 – Co-WIN platform gets upgrade – The cumulative number of healthcare workers vaccinated against COVID-19 has touched 9,99,065 (till 6 p.m. on January 21) through a total of 18,159 sessions. A total of 4,041 sessions were held till 6 p.m. on January 21, and 1,92,581 beneficiaries were vaccinated on the sixth day of the nationwide COVID-19 vaccination. As per reports, there are no cases of serious/severe AEFI (adverse event following immunisation) attributable to vaccination till date. Reports suggest that 187 minor AEFIs have been reported till 6 p.m. on the sixth day of the vaccination drive. It added that an enhancement in Co-WIN software has been introduced to cater to the creation of more session sites, more sessions per site, and a change in site location, which is now allowed.
