Swaraj India leader Yogendra Yadav
posted the certificate online, calling it proof of how broken the system is. He pointed out that while Aadhaar and ration cards are being questioned, these residence certificates are being accepted for SIR (Special Infiltration Report) purposes.
Yadav said in a post on X, "See it with your own eyes! On July 24 in Bihar, a dog got a residence certificate issued. This is the same certificate that is being accepted in Bihar under SIR, while Aadhaar and ration cards are being called fake. Check the photo and name yourself: 'Dog Babu', father's name 'Kutta Babu', mother's name 'Kutiya Babu', and address – Kaulichak Mohalla, Ward Number 15, Masaurhi Municipal Council. The certificate number is BRCCO/2025/15933581."
The District Administration of Patna responded quickly. They said an FIR has been filed against the applicant, computer operator, and officer involved. The Sub-Divisional Officer has also been told to submit a report within 24 hours, and departmental action is likely.

While Yadav mocked the system, BJP's IT chief Amit Malviya hit back. He said that SIR is meant to catch such fake entries. 'Those who are getting exposed are now giving this issue a communal angle,' he claimed.
The internet had strong reactions. One user said, 'Anyone applying with fake names should be fined Rs 5,000 or more. This is not funny anymore.' Another added, 'This shows the poor quality of some government workers in Bihar.'

Rajya Sabha to commence discussion on Op Sindoor today
The Rajya Sabha on Tuesday is set to begin its discussion on Operation Sindoor , launched by the Indian Armed Forces in retaliation for the ghastly Pahalgam terror attack that claimed 26 lives. Bharatiya Janata Party (BJP) MP Bhupathi Raju Srinivasa Varma will lay a copy of the report of the Comptroller and Auditor General (CAG) of India on Inventory Management in Steel Authority of India Limited.

The house will meet again today for a 16-hour discussion on Operation Sindoor. According to sources, Rajnath Singh and S Jaishankar will be among the ministers participating in the discussion in the Rajya Sabha. PM Modi is also expected to intervene in the discussion. The largest opposition party, Congress, has been allotted approximately two hours for discussion. Party president Mallikarjun Kharge will open the debate for them. Live Events Meanwhile, the Lok Sabha will continue its discussion on Operation Sindoor for the second day. The lower house held a discussion on Operation Sindoor months after its initiation, amid the opposition's demand for the same. The discussion concluded around 1:00 in the morning, with the opposition and ruling party leaders at loggerheads with each other. However, Lok Sabha will convene today to discuss Operation Sindoor further. Deputy Leader of Lok Sabha Gaurav Gogai hit out at the BJP-led government on Monday over the Pahalgam terror attack in Jammu and Kashmir and said it has been over 100 days since the horrendous April 22 incident, but the government "hasn't been able to catch those five terrorists" who carried out the terror attack in which 26 people, mostly tourists, were killed. Participating in the debate on 'India's strong, successful, and decisive Operation Sindoor in response to the terrorist attack in Pahalgam' in Lok Sabha, Gogoi slammed the government for stopping Operation Sindoor after Pakistan capitulated and asked why it did not go further and reclaim the territory illegally occupied by the neighbouring country. Gogoi spoke immediately after Defence Minister Rajnath Singh , who initiated the debate. Meanwhile, Defence Minister Rajnath Singh took a swipe at the opposition during a discussion on Operation Sindoor in Lok Sabha, stating that focus must not remain on small issues when aiming to achieve a higher feat, since it can divert attention from national security. "When the aim is to go higher, we should not pay attention to small issues because focusing on issues that remain comparatively small can divert attention from national security," Singh said while addressing the lower house of Parliament on Operation Sindoor. Opposition parties have been demanding a discussion on the Pahalgam terror attack and Operation Sindoor and have sought the government's clarification over US President Donald Trump's repeated claims that he brokered a ceasefire between India and Pakistan. Prime Minister Narendra Modi is expected to address the Lok Sabha between 5:00 and 6:00 PM. Home Minister Amit Shah is scheduled to speak at 12:00 PM, while Defence Minister Rajnath Singh will open the Rajya Sabha debate at 2:00 PM. Congress President Mallikarjun Kharge is likely to initiate the discussion on Operation Sindoor in the Upper House of Parliament on behalf of the party. Economic Times WhatsApp channel )

Market consolidating now, poised for upswing in H2: Sachin Shah
Sachin Shah , Fund Manager, Emkay Investment Managers , says the Indian economy is poised for a significant upswing in the latter half of the fiscal year, coinciding with an earlier festival season starting in September. Stimulus from regulators and supportive global inflation, particularly in oil and metal prices, are expected to boost demand. Domestic businesses are performing well, with leaders excelling and selective capital expenditure showing positive trends. There is a lot of sectoral divergence . Markets are watching both macros and micros and we see a lot of development happening in the tariff front also. Of course, the India-US deal is still under negotiation. How do you see the construct of the market now? Sachin Shah: You are right. We are seeing a good amount of consolidation but within the markets, within the sectors we are seeing that there is a decent amount of divergence and more importantly since we are in the midst of an earning season, we are seeing decent kind of results, from the likes of HDFC Bank, ICICI Bank or for that matter even companies like Eternal , Paytm, Laurus Labs.

So, wherever the results have been very decent, markets have rewarded, markets seem to be giving a vote of confidence over there. Wherever there have been some challenges with the results, we are seeing some disappointment; but again over there, we are not seeing a very sharp knee-jerk reaction. We are seeing that investors are probably going to put in more on hold rather than a selloff and basically, we will probably wait out for another couple of quarters because a lot of actions that we have seen at the ground level in terms of whether it was the RBI rate cuts, whether it is the tax breaks, whether it is the liquidity push, lower inflation, should probably start playing out in the next two-three quarters and maybe during the festival season. So, probably that is the hope. Overall, wherever good results are seen, we are seeing decent traction. Wherever, the results are not so good, probably markets are putting them on hold. Let us talk about big bold themes for the next six months. What is on your radar? Last time when we spoke, you were bullish on the consumption sector and themes around that. What is your take on the second half of this current financial year? Sachin Shah: A lot of factors, as far as macros are concerned, seem to be in favour of the Indian economy to start doing much better, particularly in the second half of this financial year which is during the festival season. In fact, this time, the festival season is going to be a little earlier. So, maybe sometime in September, October, November, we should see a decent amount of demand coming back and clearly it is getting a lot of stimulus from the regulator side, plus the global inflation is also very supportive – be it oil prices or a lot of other ferrous and non-ferrous metal prices. Live Events You Might Also Like: India-UK trade deal not historic but should help Indian workers in UK: Swaminathan Aiyar All of that should really help as far as the demand pickup is concerned. Even when you see some of the earning season at this point in time, most of the domestic businesses seem to be doing reasonably okay and within that, the leaders are doing even better. Another very big thing is in terms of selective capex also, when we hear some of the management commentaries in this earning season, that also seems to be under a good trajectory. Overall, we believe that the current earning season is panning out fairly decent and probably the second and third quarters should do even better. What is your view on the pharma sector in the light of the tariff threats which are there currently? I see a significant part of your exposure is in pharma. How should one navigate this sector? Is it a good bet at the current juncture? Sachin Shah: You are right. Basically, all the macros being very positive for the Indian economy, there is just one big overhang, the tariffs. Again, the tariffs relative to the other countries, is something that we need to watch out for. As far as the pharma sector is concerned, we have been fairly constructive on this sector for almost the last two, three, four years or maybe even longer and within that, we have been very strongly positioned as far as the CDMO, the CRAMs (the contract research and manufacturing space) is concerned. So, whether it is Divi's Lab, or Laurus Lab, we have been owners of these businesses for a while now and we believe that these are businesses which are like have a secular theme for the next three to five years, not only China plus one but even Europe plus one in terms of the outsourcing as a theme and companies, all the companies in these sectors, particularly the leaders have actually established with their customers their right to win in terms of their domain expertise, in terms of the setting up very large capacities. Even currently, the kind of the capex announcements that we are hearing from these companies is really large. Something we have not seen cumulatively for the last five-seven years is what we are going to see in the next two-three years, so that is another very important thing. You Might Also Like: Are current market valuations hiding opportunities or risks? Christy Mathai explains The third very important thing is the kind of comfort that they give to their customers in terms of respecting their intellectual property rights because a lot of these companies work on patented products or some of these NCPs, and that comfort as far as their confidentiality on their IPRs is also very critical. So that is one space that has long legs, at least for the next three-seven years. We continue to be very positive on that. Tariff on that, I understand, is also a function of the value proposition that these companies bring to their customers. If they have a strong value proposition compared to the other countries or the companies in the other countries, they will find their way out. What is your view on the automobile sector both from the global front and the eventual impact coming to the domestic market because as you see the tariff implications first 15% was announced for Japan and the latest one is for the European Union, again in particular for the cars itself. Now 15% is very low versus what was anticipated earlier. How do you believe this is helping the automobile space? Do you see some good times for the global automobile makers and then eventual impact coming to India or is it too early to say? Sachin Shah : No, we definitely believe that as far as exports are concerned, and auto components are concerned, we have a very large opportunity, very similar to pharma. Our companies have established the right to win. They have relationships with a lot of these customers as they have been supplying them components. They are also supplying large OEs globally. In fact, not only globally, but even in India, there is a very long gestation period as far as the product approvals are concerned and our companies have already surpassed those hurdles. They have the confidence of their global customers in terms of their quality checks, so that is very positive. Second, another very important thing is in terms of the domestic side because today domestic is still a very large market for our OEs and there we are not seeing very great numbers in the last at least three-four months in this financial year or maybe even the last six months. But there the hope is that with all the measures that both the government and the RBI has taken in the last few months, at the ground level, we should see demand coming back very strongly.

2 top stock recommendations from Rajesh Bhosale for near term
"So, unless we surpass 25,000, the markets are likely to remain under pressure. On the downside, 24,600 is the key level, which coincides with the 89 EMA. In the near term, we expect the Nifty to consolidate within the 24,600–25,000 zone," says Rajesh Bhosale , Angel One. Did you happen to see the Test match I was talking about? And is there any parallel with the market? Rajesh Bhosale: Yes, I did watch the match. It was very interesting—and kudos to Washington and Jadeja, they helped to draw the game. It was a significant match. So, we still have a chance to draw the series.

But the heavyweights are not supporting. In fact, from a technical perspective, last week we saw a major breakdown on the Nifty charts. A rising channel pattern as well as the 50 EMA was breached. So, unless we surpass 25,000, the markets are likely to remain under pressure. On the downside, 24,600 is the key level, which coincides with the 89 EMA. In the near term, we expect the Nifty to consolidate within the 24,600–25,000 zone. Live Events Yes, the market certainly lacks that sense of spirit at the moment. But then, it's clearly a stock-picker's market, especially since we are midway through the earnings season . However, the results so far haven't shown the kind of positivity one would hope for. What are the stocks on your radar right now? Rajesh Bhosale: Yes, there are some counters that are definitely showing relative strength. They're still trading around their 52-week or all-time highs. So, some of those could continue to perform well despite a lacklustre broader market. One of our picks is PEL – Piramal Enterprises . If you look at the stock, it had a strong rally in early July, moving from 1150 to 1350. Last week, we saw some price correction. Today, the stock is showing strength around its 20 EMA and has already crossed Friday's high. So, we're bullish on this counter and recommend a buy with a stop loss at 1260, targeting 1410. The second buy call is on HDFC Life. On the monthly chart, it has already given a strong long-term breakout. After some correction last week, it formed a bullish engulfing pattern, and this week we're seeing follow-up buying. It has also crossed above the 20 EMA. So, we expect HDFC Life to resume its positive momentum. With a small stop loss at 750, we expect an upside target of 805.
