super ace 2 Former Member of Parliament (MP) Gloria Julia King has donated VT1 million to the Mele Union of Moderate Parties Sub-committee (MUS) for road infrastructure. However, the project is currently on hold as there is constant rainfall due to the cyclone season. Former MP King has been recognised by the community for her contributions, particularly in facilitating donations during the holiday season to support celebrations. She has consistently been a primary resource in times of need. Mr. Ati George Sokomanu, Vanuatu’s first President, reaffirmed his support for the former MP, commending her community efforts in providing financial assistance to her constituents. He emphasised the necessity for the MUS to work together with the local and collaborate on improving the road conditions, which are currently inadequate. “I must stress the importance of ensuring that residents have access to reliable transportation, particularly as the village is the largest in Vanuatu,” he said. The village committee establishment an agreement with the World Bank regarding road infrastructure three years ago. However, there is now uncertainly regarding the allocation of the funds, as it is suspected that political interference may have redirected the money to another province. The village road leading from the main road into the Mele community is plagued by large potholes, which blocks vehicle passage, often taking several minutes to navigate. During the rainy season, these potholes accumulate water and can remain filled for up to a week before drying out, creating considerable difficulties for residents attempting to access transportation for work and school. The villagers frequently encounter various difficulties, particularly concerning the river during rainy periods. The rainfall often results in damage to homes and gardens, as the locals typically construct bridges using manual labour. To address widespread unemployment among the youth in the community to sustain their living, the Area Council is assisting individuals in travelling for seasonal work in order to generate income that will help support their families. Leaders have urged the residents to collaborate and unite in order to build a resilient community and ensure that operations align with both traditional customs and government regulations.Singh was pitchforked into leading the world's largest democracy in 2004 by the shock decision of Congress leader Sonia Gandhi to turn down the role after leading the party to an upset win over the ruling Hindu nationalists. He oversaw an economic boom in Asia's fourth-largest economy in his first term, although slowing growth in later years marred his second stint. Known as "Mr Clean", Singh nonetheless saw his image tarnished during his decade-long tenure when a series of corruption cases became public. As finance minister in the early 1990s, he was hailed at home and abroad for initiating big-bang reforms that opened India's inward-looking economy to the world. Known as a loyalist to the Gandhi political dynasty, Singh studied economics to find a way to eradicate poverty in the vast nation and never held elected office before becoming PM. But he deftly managed the rough and tumble of Indian politics -- even though many said Sonia Gandhi, the Italian-born widow of the assassinated Rajiv Gandhi, was the power behind the throne. Born in 1932 in the mud-house village of Gah in what is now Pakistan, Singh moved to the holy Sikh city of Amritsar as a teenager around the time the subcontinent was split at the end of British rule into mainly Hindu India and Muslim Pakistan. His father was a dry-fruit seller in Amritsar, and he had nine brothers and sisters. He was so determined to get an education he would study at night under streetlights because it was too noisy at home, his brother Surjit Singh told AFP in 2004. "Our father always used to say Manmohan will be the prime minister of India since he stuck out among the 10 children," said Singh. "He always had his nose in a book." Singh won scholarships to attend both Cambridge, where he obtained a first in economics, and Oxford, where he completed his PhD. He worked in a string of senior civil posts, served as a central bank governor and also held various jobs with global agencies such as the United Nations. Singh was tapped in 1991 by then Congress prime minister P.V. Narasimha Rao to reel India back from the worst financial crisis in its modern history -- currency reserves had sunk so low the country was on the brink of defaulting on foreign loans. Singh unleashed sweeping change that broke sharply with India's Soviet-style state-directed economy. In his first term he steered the economy through a period of nine-percent growth, lending the country the international clout it had long sought. He also sealed a landmark nuclear deal with the US that he said would help India meet its growing energy needs. But by 2008 there was growing disquiet among the ruling alliance's left-leaning parties about the pact, while high inflation -- notably food and fuel prices -- hit India's poor hard. Still, voters remained drawn to his calm, pragmatic persona, and in 2009 Congress steered its alliance to a second term. Singh vowed to step up financial reforms to drive economic growth, but he came under increasing fire from critics who said he had done nothing to stop a string of corruption scandals on his watch. Several months before the 2014 elections, Singh said he would retire after the polls, with Sonia Gandhi's son Rahul earmarked to take his place if Congress won. But Congress crashed to its worst-ever result at that time as the Hindu-nationalist Bharatiya Janata Party, led by Narendra Modi, won a landslide. More recently, an unflattering book by a former aide titled "The Accidental Prime Minister" portrayed him as timid and controlled by Sonia Gandhi. Singh -- who said historians would be kinder to him than contemporary detractors -- became a vocal critic of Modi's economic policies, and more recently warned about the risks that rising communal tensions posed to India's democracy. pmc-grk/abh/fox/leg/sms

JERUSALEM — Israel approved a United States-brokered ceasefire agreement with Lebanon's Hezbollah on Tuesday, setting the stage for an end to nearly 14 months of fighting linked to the ongoing war in the Gaza Strip. In the hours leading up to the Cabinet meeting, Israel carried out its most intense wave of strikes in Beirut and its southern suburbs and issued a record number of evacuation warnings. At least 24 people were killed in strikes across the country, according to local authorities, as Israel signaled it aims to keep pummeling Hezbollah in the final hours before any ceasefire takes hold. Israel's security Cabinet approved the ceasefire agreement late Tuesday after it was presented by Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu, his office said. U.S. President Joe Biden, speaking in Washington, called the agreement “good news” and said his administration would make a renewed push for a ceasefire in Gaza. People are also reading... An Israel-Hezbollah ceasefire would mark the first major step toward ending the regionwide unrest triggered by Hamas’ attack on Israel on Oct. 7, 2023. But it does not address the devastating war in Gaza. U.S. President-elect Donald Trump has vowed to bring peace to the Middle East, but neither he nor Netanyahu have proposed a postwar solution for the Palestinian territory, where Hamas is still holding dozens of hostages and the conflict is more intractable. Still, any halt to the fighting in Lebanon is expected to reduce the likelihood of war between Israel and Iran, which backs both Hezbollah and Hamas and exchanged direct fire with Israel on two occasions earlier this year. Smoke rises following an Israeli airstrike on Dahiyeh, in Beirut, Lebanon, Tuesday, Nov. 26, 2024. Bilal Hussein - staff, ASSOCIATED PRESS Israel says it will ‘attack with might’ if Hezbollah breaks truce Netanyahu presented the ceasefire proposal to Cabinet ministers after a televised address in which he listed a series of accomplishments against Israel’s enemies across the region. He said a ceasefire with Hezbollah would further isolate Hamas in Gaza and allow Israel to focus on its main enemy, Iran, which backs both groups. “If Hezbollah breaks the agreement and tries to rearm, we will attack,” he said. “For every violation, we will attack with might.” Netanyahu's office later said Israel appreciated the U.S. efforts in securing the deal but "reserves the right to act against every threat to its security.” It was not immediately clear when the ceasefire would go into effect, and the exact terms of the deal were not released. The deal calls for a two-month initial halt in fighting and would require Hezbollah to end its armed presence in a broad swath of southern Lebanon, while Israeli troops would return to their side of the border. Thousands of additional Lebanese troopsand U.N. peacekeepers would deploy in the south, and an international panel headed by the United States would monitor all sides’ compliance. But implementation remains a major question mark. Israel has demanded the right to act should Hezbollah violate its obligations. Lebanese officials have rejected writing that into the proposal. Biden said Israel reserved the right to quickly resume operations in Lebanon if Hezbollah breaks the terms of the truce, but that the deal "was designed to be a permanent cessation of hostilities.” Hezbollah has said it accepts the proposal, but a senior official with the group said Tuesday that it had not seen the agreement in its final form. “After reviewing the agreement signed by the enemy government, we will see if there is a match between what we stated and what was agreed upon by the Lebanese officials,” Mahmoud Qamati, deputy chair of Hezbollah’s political council, told the Al Jazeera news network. “We want an end to the aggression, of course, but not at the expense of the sovereignty of the state” of Lebanon, he said. “Any violation of sovereignty is refused.” In this screen grab image from video provide by the Israeli Government Press Office, Israeli Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu makes a televised statement Tuesday, Nov. 26, 2024, in Jerusalem, Israel.

An Israeli strike on Tuesday leveled a residential building in the central Beirut district of Basta — the second time in recent days warplanes have hit the crowded area near the city’s downtown. At least seven people were killed and 37 wounded, according to Lebanon's Health Ministry. Strikes on Beirut's southern suburbs killed at least one person and wounded 13, it said. Three people were killed in a separate strike in Beirut and three in a strike on a Palestinian refugee camp in southern Lebanon. Lebanese state media said another 10 people were killed in the eastern Baalbek province. Israel says it targets Hezbollah fighters and their infrastructure. Israel also struck a building in Beirut's bustling commercial district of Hamra for the first time, hitting a site that is around 400 meters (yards) from Lebanon’s Central Bank. There were no reports of casualties. The Israeli military said it struck targets in Beirut and other areas linked to Hezbollah's financial arm. The evacuation warnings covered many areas, including parts of Beirut that previously have not been targeted. The warnings, coupled with fear that Israel was ratcheting up attacks before a ceasefire, sent residents fleeing. Traffic was gridlocked, and some cars had mattresses tied to them. Dozens of people, some wearing their pajamas, gathered in a central square, huddling under blankets or standing around fires as Israeli drones buzzed loudly overhead. Hezbollah, meanwhile, kept up its rocket fire, triggering air raid sirens across northern Israel. Israeli military spokesman Avichay Adraee issued evacuation warnings for 20 buildings in Beirut's southern suburbs, where Hezbollah has a major presence, as well as a warning for the southern town of Naqoura where the U.N. peacekeeping mission, UNIFIL, is headquartered. UNIFIL spokesperson Andrea Tenenti told The Associated Press that peacekeepers will not evacuate.

Leo Correa - staff, ASSOCIATED PRESS Israeli forces reach Litani River in southern Lebanon The Israeli military also said its ground troops clashed with Hezbollah forces and destroyed rocket launchers in the Slouqi area on the eastern end of the Litani River, a few kilometers (miles) from the Israeli border. Under the ceasefire deal, Hezbollah would be required to move its forces north of the Litani, which in some places is about 30 kilometers (20 miles) north of the border. Hezbollah began firing into northern Israel, saying it was showing support for the Palestinians, a day after Hamas carried out its Oct. 7, 2023, attack on southern Israel, triggering the Gaza war. Israel returned fire on Hezbollah, and the two sides have been exchanging barrages ever since. Israel escalated its campaign of bombardment in mid-September and later sent troops into Lebanon, vowing to put an end to Hezbollah fire so tens of thousands of evacuated Israelis could return to their homes. More than 3,760 people have been killed by Israeli fire in Lebanon the past 13 months, many of them civilians, according to Lebanese health officials. The bombardment has driven 1.2 million people from their homes. Israel says it has killed more than 2,000 Hezbollah members. Hezbollah fire has forced some 50,000 Israelis to evacuate in the country’s north, and its rockets have reached as far south in Israel as Tel Aviv. At least 75 people have been killed, more than half of them civilians. More than 50 Israeli soldiers have died in the ground offensive in Lebanon. Chehayeb and Mroue reported from Beirut.

The only other instance that comes close is the famous 2001 Test at the Eden Gardens, although there are no official figures available for that game. In that sense, it was a historic moment in the India-Australia Test rivalry and the crowd certainly wasn’t disappointed. ET Year-end Special Reads Corporate Kalesh: Top family disputes of India Inc in 2024 The world of business lost these eminent people in 2024 Fast, faster, fastest: How 2024 put more speed into your shopping Jasprit Bumrah opened the match with a spectacular first. He made the 19-year-old Australian debutant, Sam Konstas, look like a walking wicket in his first three overs. However, the teenager changed his approach and started playing unconventional shots. Three ramp shots, resulting in two fours and a six, turned the tide and injected the match with much-needed energy. Konstas took the attack to the Indians by taking on the hitherto unplayable Bumrah. Konstas kept attacking for as long as he batted and the scoring rate at one point was over five an over. “You think of the modern day and a more adventurous incarnation of Virender Sehwag. That’s what Sam Konstas is. There will be days when it’ll not come off and he’ll not look nice. But on other days he will set the tone,” said Justin Langer, former Australia opener and coach. Konstas liveed and died by the sword. His confrontation with Virat Kohli further added to the drama. By the time Konstas (60 off 65 balls, 6x4, 2x6) was finally out to Ravindra Jadeja, he had provided Australia a strong platform. Konstas’ dismissal was followed by two-and-a-half hours of attritional cricket. Australia focussed on consolidation, while India adopted a patient, waiting strategy. Bumrah picked up Usman Khwaja to a loose shot to bring Steve Smith to the crease. What followed was a quintessential Test partnership be tween Marnus Labuschagne and Smith — 83 off 127 balls. Though they were beaten many times, their resilience never wavered. That’s what Test cricket is all about, batting through adversity. It was the partnership that gave Australia control. However, just as it seemed India were running out of ideas, Labuschagne made a costly mistake. A smart catch from Kohli, almost against the run of play, gave India a much-needed breakthrough. Interestingly, a section of the Australian fans weren’t unhappy with Labuschagne’s dismissal, knowing that Travis Head was the next batter. Head’s been in sublime form in this series. With back-to-back hundreds, he’s been a constant thorn in India’s side. With the second new ball still some time away, the stage was set for Head to take charge. An hour of aggressive play could take the game away from India.

Bumrah bowled the delivery of the day, which pitched on off and deviated just enough to clip the top of off stump. Head, playing inside the line, couldn’t anticipate the movement. That moment of brilliance brought India back into the game. Bumrah followed it up with the wicket of Mitch Marsh and then Akash Deep used the second new ball to remove Alex Carey to make sure India did not end the day too behind.In all, it was a fascinating day of cricket that lived up to the billing. It showcased the impulsive brilliance of Konstas, the dogged determination of Labuschagne and Smith, and the genius of Bumrah. While Australia might feel marginally ahead, India knows that with the second new ball just a few overs old, a good first hour will square things up. On a good batting deck, it will be India’s batting that will need to stand up. With Shubman Gill dropped for lack of overseas runs, the all-rounders will need to step up and make it count.
