<p><strong>SL vs AUS 2nd Test Highlights:</strong> Australia&#8217;s star player Steve Smith has had a memorable Test series against Sri Lanka. During the second Test against Sri Lanka, Smith achieved another milestone. He broke former Australian captain Ricky Ponting&#8217;s record for the most runs scored in the Asian subcontinent. Recently, after falling short of 10,000 Test runs at 9999 runs at the end of the Border-Gavaskar Trophy, Steve Smith created history by completing 10,000 Test runs in the first Test played in Galle.</p>



<h2 class="wp-block-heading">Record for Most Runs in the Asian Subcontinent</h2>



<p>Former Australian captain Ponting previously held the record for the most runs scored in the Asian subcontinent. Ponting scored 1889 runs in 48 innings at an average of 41.97. Steve Smith needed only 27 runs to surpass Ponting and achieved this feat in Australia&#8217;s first innings of the second Test. Notably, on the first day of this match, he became the Australian Test cricketer with the most catches (non-wicketkeeper), surpassing Ponting in this record as well.</p>

<h2 class="wp-block-heading">Smith Says: &#8220;I&#8217;ve Always Enjoyed Playing Spin in the Subcontinent&#8221;</h2>



<p>On the first day of the match, Steve Smith stated, &#8220;I&#8217;ve always enjoyed playing spin in the subcontinent. It&#8217;s different from playing spin at home. You have to adopt different methods to score and survive, especially when the wickets are very challenging.&#8221; Before this series, Smith had only been part of one series win in the Asian subcontinent, which was against Pakistan in 2022.</p>

<p><strong>Delhi Chief Minister:</strong> After a landslide victory, the BJP is engaged in internal deliberations regarding Delhi&#8217;s new Chief Minister. Along with veteran faces, two prominent figures with Rashtriya Swayamsevak Sangh (RSS) backgrounds are now also in the running. Sources say that if there is no need to balance other caste, social, and regional equations, and if the Sangh lobbies for them, these individuals could outweigh other contenders.</p>



<h2 class="wp-block-heading">These Two Faces Emerge as Front-Runners</h2>



<p>These include Pawan Sharma, who won from Uttam Nagar, a former Sangh pracharak and former Delhi state organisation general secretary. Rajkumar Bhatia, who won from Adarsh Nagar, has worked with the ABVP and represents the Punjabi community. Jitendra Mahajan , who won from Rohini, represents both the Punjabi community and the Vaishya community. However, his identity remains outside the Sangh Parivar. The decision regarding the CM is likely to be made only after Prime Minister Narendra Modi returns from his foreign tour. Modi is expected back on 14 February.</p>



<h2 class="wp-block-heading">Grand Swearing-in Ceremony Planned</h2>



<p>The BJP won 48 seats in the 70-member assembly, limiting AAP to 22 seats. BJP sources have stated that the swearing-in ceremony of the new Chief Minister is likely to be held after the Prime Minister returns from his foreign tour. Sources said that to mark the party&#8217;s return to power in the capital after 27 years, the BJP will organise a grand swearing-in ceremony. Chief Ministers from all NDA-ruled states are likely to be invited to the ceremony.</p>

On Monday, a team comprising ADRM Rashmi Diwakar, Senior DCM Saurabh Kataria, and DCM Navel Agrawal, provided information about the arrangements being made by the railways. The railways clarified that only Prayagraj Sangam station is closed two days before and two days after any Amrit Snan; therefore, there is no need to pay attention to any rumours.

<p>At stations like Prayagraj Junction, Chheoki, Naini, Subedarganj, Prayag, Phaphamau, Rambag, and Jhūnsī, passengers are being provided with facilities to reach the ghats for the holy bath. Passengers can use the railway helpline 139 and online facilities for more information.</p>

<p>A 156-page plan outlines the expansion of Narmadapuram city in Madhya Pradesh. According to the plan, in the last eight years, only one road widening project at the RMS crossing has been completed. Additionally, a bus stand has been constructed in old Itarsi. Work on other planned projects has not yet commenced. There are also several obstacles in connecting the villages adjacent to the city.</p>



<h2 class="wp-block-heading">Master Plan Prepared</h2>



<p>If the municipality and administration construct all the roads included in the 156-page master plan according to the specified standards, the width of the roads will increase from 12 to 24 meters. The Itarsi master plan was approved on 19 October 2016 by the Ministry of Urban Development and Housing, Vallabh Bhavan, Bhopal, under Section 19(1) of the MP Nagar and Gram Investment Act, 1973.</p>



<p>Following this, the information was published in the MP Gazette on 28 October 2016. Despite this, the Municipal Council (NPA) has not yet discussed it. This approved master plan has remained gathering dust in files.</p>



<h2 class="wp-block-heading">17 Villages to be Included Under the Plan</h2>



<p>According to the city expansion plan, 17 villages connected to the city are to be incorporated, covering a total investment area of 11,999 hectares. The plan includes incorporating Raisalpur, Sonasawari, Dhokheda, Sankheda, Somlawada, Ghatli, Jujharpur, Gonchitaronda, Pathrota, Bhatti, Dhurapan, Bhilakhedi, Baingania, Boratlai, Dehri, and Mehragaon into the city limits. However, opposition from the Gram Panchayats (village councils) is hindering the process.</p>



<p><em>&#8220;Work on the master plan is underway. The bus stand has been built. We are studying in detail what other things need to be done in the master plan. Work will be carried out in a systematic manner.&#8221; &#8211; Pankaj Chaure, President, NPA Itarsi</em></p>



<h2 class="wp-block-heading">18-meter Wide Road Constructed…</h2>



<p>Shops were being operated by encroaching on the land of the Public Works Department (PWD) near the rest house. The Tehsildar (revenue officer) issued notices to all the encroachers, stating that according to the master plan, the road from Sanchi Parlour to Nehruganj must be 18 meters wide. Following this, the administration removed the encroachment from the road.</p>



<p>Along with this, the work of the bus stand in the old Itarsi Tractor Scheme has also been completed. A plan was also made to strengthen the monsoon drains with stones and iron wires, but this work has not been carried out.</p>



<h2 class="wp-block-heading">Width to be 22 to 30 metres</h2>



<p>According to the proposed plan, the road width will be 22 metres from the station to Gandhi Ground, 12 metres from Vishwanath Talkies to Surajganj, 15 metres from Mahatma Gandhi Marg to Jaystambh, 18 metres from Ritu Raj Talkies to Nala Mohalla, 24 meters from the bridge to beyond the station, and 12 metres from the railway station to the road behind Raj Talkies. Currently, the width of all these roads is approximately half of what is planned, leading to traffic congestion. After removing the chaupati from Surajganj Road, parking for four-wheeled vehicles has been created on both sides.</p>

<p><strong>Champions Trophy 2025 Update: </strong>Former Indian player and head coach Ravi Shastri has named the most dangerous team in the ICC Champions Trophy 2025. This team is neither India nor Pakistan, but New Zealand. Shastri explained his reasoning, stating that New Zealand&#8217;s current performance is outstanding. In the triangular series being played in Pakistan, New Zealand has won the first two matches, securing a place in the final.</p>



<p>Shastri highlighted that star players like Kane Williamson, Rachin Ravindra, Glenn Phillips, and Daryl Mitchell are individually capable of winning matches and have consistently proven valuable to the team.</p>



<h2 class="wp-block-heading">Praise for Will O&#8217;Rourke</h2>



<p>In an ICC review, Ravi Shastri stated, &#8220;I believe that New Zealand will be the most dangerous team in the Champions Trophy. Kane Williamson will provide stability to the middle order. Rachin Ravindra is also a dangerous player. They have many players who fully support the team and step up when needed. They have Daryl Mitchell. Will O&#8217;Rourke bowls very fast and can prove useful to the team.&#8221;</p>



<h2 class="wp-block-heading">‘Kiwi team possesses useful multitaskers’</h2>



<p>He further added that the Kiwi team also has Glenn Phillips, who scores runs quickly in the lower order and also provides the team with an off-spin option. &#8220;You can see they have multitaskers who are extremely useful as a team. When you watch them from the outside, you know they play as a unit. They truly hunt. Therefore, they can be dangerous.&#8221;</p>



<h2 class="wp-block-heading">…So, the elimination of either India or Pakistan in the group stage is certain</h2>



<p>It is noteworthy that on the strength of these players, New Zealand had comprehensively defeated India in the Test series. Now, the New Zealand team is playing a triangular series with Pakistan and South Africa. The Kiwi team has defeated Pakistan and Africa to reach the final. New Zealand is in Group A of the Champions Trophy 2025 along with Pakistan, India, and Bangladesh.

<p>Jaipur News: Following a controversy surrounding a YouTube show featuring obscenity and alleged disrespect towards Indian culture, outrage has erupted across the nation. The show involved YouTubers Saumya Raina, Ranvīr Allahanadia, Apurva Makhijā, and Ashīsh Chanchalānī, who are accused of performing obscene acts and making derogatory comments about Indian culture. The situation has taken a new turn with the Rajput community, and specifically the Karṇī Sena, preparing a strong response.</p>



<p>Karni Sena officials state that these YouTubers have misled the younger generation and made inappropriate comments targeting parents. This has caused widespread anger within the Rashtriya Karṇī Sena. The national president and national in-charge of the Rashtriya Karṇī Sena have organised a meeting to plan their response.</p>



<p>Karni Sena believes that national pride and parents are not subjects of ridicule. They demand strict action against those making such offensive comments. Vishnu Pratap Singh, spokesperson for the Rashtriya Karṇī Sena, stated that these YouTubers have insulted Indian culture and misguided the youth. He asserted that the National Karni Sena will always speak against such individuals. This incident has reignited the debate on obscenity and cultural disrespect on YouTube, with many demanding action against these YouTubers.</p>


<p>Karni Sena Protest: A new twist has emerged in this matter. The Rajput community has now made extensive preparations. The Karni Sena has jumped into the fray.</p>

<p><strong>RSSB Order:</strong> The Rajasthan Staff Selection Board (RSSB) will now impose fines on candidates who are absent from recruitment examinations. A decision was taken at a board meeting on Monday that candidates will be charged a fine of ₹750 at the time of applying for the third examination if they are absent twice.</p>



<h2 class="wp-block-heading">Penalty of ₹1500 for Absence from Two Recruitment Exams</h2>



<p>A penalty of ₹1500 will be levied for not attending two recruitment examinations. Similarly, a total fine of ₹2250 will be imposed for not attending four examinations. This rule will apply to examinations held after April 1st.</p>



<h2 class="wp-block-heading">Savings of over ₹100 Crore for the Government</h2>



<p>The Congress government implemented one-time registration for recruitment examinations. This allows the government to receive fees from candidates only once. On the other hand, candidates who are absent from recruitment examinations increase the cost of examinations for the government. In the case of the Rajasthan Staff Selection Board, an average of ₹600 is spent on each candidate. Imposing fines will save the government more than ₹100 crore.</p>

<p><strong>Excessive screen use:</strong> An international study has revealed that excessive use of screens – such as TVs, smartphones, and tablets – can negatively impact a child&#8217;s language development abilities. The study suggests that engaging children with books and using screens together with adults can improve their language skills.</p>



<p>This study was conducted by researchers from 20 Latin American countries, analysing data from 1,878 children aged between 12 and 48 months. The study focused on children&#8217;s screen use, engagement with books, language development, and other factors. It also considered the family&#8217;s economic status, parents&#8217; education, and employment status.</p>



<h2 class="wp-block-heading">TV Use Most Prevalent</h2>



<p>According to this research, published in the journal PLOS ONE, television was the most frequently used screen medium for young children, with an average viewing time exceeding one hour. This can slow down the pace of children&#8217;s language development.</p>



<p>The study also found that entertainment programs were most watched by children, while music and educational programs ranked second and third respectively. Families with weaker economic conditions showed less use of books and educational resources.</p>



<h2 class="wp-block-heading">Impact on Vocabulary</h2>



<p>Children who watched excessive screen time exhibited limited vocabulary and delayed milestones in language acquisition. Conversely, children who engaged more with books or used screens with adults demonstrated better language skills. However, the study found no significant correlation between screen use and physical development.</p>



<h2 class="wp-block-heading">Positive Impacts Can Be Mitigated</h2>



<p>This study confirms previous research indicating that excessive screen time can negatively impact the language development of young children. However, these effects can be somewhat mitigated if adults share screens with children and provide them with appropriate educational content.</p>



<p>Researchers recommend further in-depth studies on this topic to better understand the effects of screens on children.</p>



<h2 class="wp-block-heading"><strong>Excessive Screen Time Can Affect Children&#8217;s Emotional Development</strong></h2>



<p>Next time your child displays anger, don&#8217;t necessarily blame them. A recent study suggests that excessive use of mobile phones and tablets can affect children&#8217;s emotional development. Specifically, using these devices for cartoons and other content can lead to emotional outbursts in everyday situations such as waking up, bedtime, or refusing meals.</p>



<h2 class="wp-block-heading"><strong>The Link Between Screen Time and Children&#8217;s Emotional Behaviour</strong></h2>



<p>A study published in the <strong><em>JAMA Pediatrics</em> journal</strong> has revealed a link between young children&#8217;s screen time and their emotional development. The research showed that children who used mobile phones and tablets at age 3.5 were more likely to experience increased anger and frustration by age 4.5. Furthermore, children who experienced anger and frustration by age 4.5 were more likely to increase their use of these devices by age 5.5. A survey of 315 parents in Nova Scotia, Canada, studied children&#8217;s tablet use and their emotional behaviour.</p>
