When the first lockdown was announced in India in March 2020, we hoped it would not last long as nobody was prepared. Soon news started coming in about loss of jobs, a crackdown of the public health system, lack of support from the government for those who needed it the most and a crashing economy.

About Us The Express Group was the unifying voice behind India’s struggle for independence. Today, it is the leading light in the battle against corruption as well as empowering the people of India. The Indian Express began its journey in 1932. Since then, the Group has grown from strength to strength. From a single edition to 35 national editions, 21 publication centers and 7 language dailies that reach over 19 million people across the country.... For the millions of readers, the name "Indian Express" evokes a feeling of faith and trust in the belief that ‘their Express’ will provide the true picture of India and the world at large. Published from 21 centers across the country, the newspaper has been identified with credible and fiercely independent journalism in India. One of the most influential newspapers of the Indian subcontinent, The Indian Express has been the watchdog for the Indian people, fiercely treading the terrains of investigative and pro-active journalism. Some of the most shocking stories in the history of Indian journalism are credited to this newspaper. For instance, it showed how slavery existed in 20th century India when an Express reporter actually bought a woman from the market and wrote the famous story of Kamla. When the Press was muzzled and gagged and democracy kept in prison in 1975 during the Emergency, The Express was one of the few papers to stand up and speak out against the anti-democracy..

ICRA has a long-term rating outstanding of [ICRA]A- (Pronounced ICRA A minus) on the Rs 25.00 crore term loans, Rs 35.00 crore cash credit limits and RS 60.00 crore (reduced from Rs 70.00 crore) unallocated limits of the company. The outlook on the long term rating is ‘Stable’. The ratings continue to reflect TIEPL’s healthy financial flexibility marked by a robust capital structure and improvement in coverage indicators in line with improvement in profitability metrics over the last fiscal and further supported by adequate cash balances (Rs 61.2 crore as on March 31, 2015) and undrawn lines of credit. Reducing debt levels coupled with further improvement in profitability metrics expected on account of favourable newsprint prices as well as improving cost efficiencies and absence of any significant debt funded capex plans is expected to support the cash flows and financial profile of the company over the near term. The ratings continue to factor in the strong brand recall of flagship publication, The Indian Express, and leadership position of Marathi publication, Loksatta, which provides opportunities for offering bundled products across editions and geographies and consistent growth in circulation revenues of the company supported by higher penetration in existing markets, increase in cover price and launch of new editions to mark entry into new markets.

  • A New India-Pakistan Ceasefire: Will It Hold?
    12 16 March 2021 A New India-Pakistan Ceasefire: Will It Hold? Tridivesh Singh Maini FDI Visiting Fellow Key Points The Joint Statement by the Directors-General of Military Operations (DGMO) of India and Pakistan calling for a ceasefire is being attributed to various reasons, both internal and external. It comes days after the decision of both India and China to disengage. Days before the statement by the DGMOs , there were some indicators of a thaw, if one were to go by the statements of Pakistan Army Chief Qamar Javed Bajwa, and even Prime Minister Imran Khan during his visit to Sri Lanka. For both countries, the best way ahead would be to get results from low-hanging fruit like bilateral trade. It will be important to see if bilateral tensions can be reduced and whether the South Asian Association for Regional Co-operation (SAARC), which has been in limbo for nearly five years, can be revived. Summary The ceasefire on 24 February that was agreed upon by India and Pakistan is important for a number of reasons. First, it comes a year-and-a-half after the already strained ties between India and Pakistan had deteriorated even further after New Delhi revoked Article 370 of the Indian Constitution in Kashmir. Second, it comes days after India and China decided to resolve tensions after a period of almost nine months by withdrawing their troops from the North and South Banks of Pangong Lake at the Line of Actual Control. Third, this ceasefire was declared a little over a month after US President Joe Biden took office as President of the US.

  • In Second Comments on Farmers' Stir, Trudeau Welcomes De-Escalation
    TOP STORIES MENU In second comments on farmers' stir, Trudeau welcomes de-escalation THE TRIBUNE | 3 MONTHS AGO | 1 MINUTE, 59 SECONDS READ External Affairs Minister S Jaishankar may not attend a meeting of Canada-led 14-nation grouping, apparently in protest against Canadian Prime Minister Justin Trudeau's observations on the farmers' protest. Meanwhile, the office of the UN Secretary General Antonio Guterres has said people have a right to demonstrate peacefully and authorities should let them do so. Several MPs of Indian-origin and some from Green and Labour parties from the UK, Canada and Australia have also commented on the stir. To a question on the farmers' protests in India, the spokesperson for Guterres framed the reply in broad terms. "As to the question of India, what I would say is what I've said to others when raising these issues is that people have a right to demonstrate peacefully, and authorities need to let them do so," said Stephane Dujarric. Trudeau, in his second comments on the farmers' stir, said, "Canada will always stand up for the right for peaceful protest and for human rights around the world and we are pleased to see moves toward de-escalation and dialogue.'' India had reacted sharply to his first comment when he used words such as "concern". The MEA had then summoned the Canadian envoy and issued a statement terming the comments as "ill-informed and unwarranted as the matter pertained to the internal affairs of a democratic country". Meanwhile, Jaishankar reportedly has scheduling issues on Tuesday, making it difficult for him to attend the next meeting of the 14-nation Covid group that spans four continents.
