China's expanding strategic presence in Indian Ocean Region is a challenge for India: Parliament Committee Report
The growing presence of extra-regional players in the India Ocean Region (IOR), especially China gaining a foothold in the region, is one of the strategic challenges for India, reads the report of the Parliamentary Standing Committee on External Affairs. The report, released earlier this week, further reads that China has been undertaking several infrastructure projects focusing on ports, airports and the logistics sector for dual-use purposes, in addition to deploying research and survey vessels in the region to augment maritime domain awareness, and collect sensitive oceanography and marine data. Explained | China's moves in the Indian Ocean On the extent of inroads made by China in the IOR, how aggressive China is, and how secure India's position is, the report reads that China has expanded its naval power in the region by increasing the number of vessels and duration of deployment. This has been facilitated by establishing a military base in Djibouti in 2017 and the creation of dual-use infrastructure astride critical maritime choke points in the IOR to serve logistics support functions. The report further reads that as part of this strategy, China is also developing ports and other infrastructure facilities in the littoral countries of the IOR, including in the vicinity of India's maritime boundary, and has a stated goal of becoming a maritime power. India has been working closely with partner countries in the region and sensitising them on China's activities and the long-term implications for their internal and regional security. In December 2024, Sri Lankan President Anura Kumara Dissanayake reiterated his country's stated position of not permitting its territory to be used in any manner inimical to the security of India, as well as towards regional stability. While the Indian government is aware of China's engagements with other countries, including Sri Lanka, India's relations with these countries stand on their own footing and are independent of the relations of these countries with third countries, the report reads. Also Read: All eyes are now on the Indian Ocean region Replying to the government's perception towards China's Belt and Road Initiative (BRI) and its debt-trapped diplomacy, the report mentioned that the Government of India has had a principled position on the initiative. Their concerns arise inter alia from the inclusion of the so-called illegal China-Pakistan Economic Corridor as a flagship project of BRI, which impinges on the sovereignty and territorial integrity of India. The so-called illegal 'China-Pakistan Economic Corridor' passes through parts of the Union Territories of Jammu and Kashmir and Ladakh, which are under the illegal occupation of Pakistan. The government has conveyed its concerns to the Chinese side on multiple occasions and has asked them to cease such activities. 'We have been clear that militarisation of the Indian Ocean Region is not desirable and it will adversely impact security of the Indian Ocean and the wider Indo-Pacific,' the report mentioned regarding potential military use of ports and infrastructures by China developed in IOR.

I'll be disappointed if Gill doesn't go places: Ravi Shastri
Shubman Gill, as the captain of the Indian Test side, has lost the first game by five wickets against England at Leeds in Headingly. Taking the reins in the absence of experienced veterans like Rohit Sharma and Virat Kohli, Gill has been handed over a stern first assignment to play a five-match Test series against England. Former Indian coach Ravi Shastri, despite the disappointment in the first Test, it would be a surprise if Gill does not go places in a few years. 'I'll be disappointed if Gill doesn't go places. Languid, lazy elegance, and he's got a regal element of being regal out there when he's batting. If he can learn with exposure and adapt to conditions, I think that's the one name I can see,' he said, speaking to 'He's matured a lot. The way he handles the media, the way he talks at press conferences, at tosses, he's matured a lot. Let him be there for three years. Don't chop and change irrespective of what happens in the series. Stick with him for three years and I think he will deliver for you,' the former India head coach reckoned.' Shastri added. With India claiming 38.5% of ICC's total revenue share for the 2024-27 cycle, former player Shastri defended the decision saying India should get an even bigger share considering their contribution to the cricket body's revenue. 'I would want more because most of the money that's generated comes from India. So it's only fair that they get their share of pound of flesh. It's relative, it's economies, if tomorrow there might be another economy that's stronger. Money might come from there like it did in the 70s, 80s and the chunk of the money went somewhere else. So I think it's only fair and, it just shows in the revenues,' Shastri said on Wisden. 'When India travel, look at the television rights, look at the television income that comes for an India series. So it's only fair that they get. Whatever they're getting now, if not more,' he added.

Amazon awarded ₹23.7 crore in damages, ₹77 crore towards legal costs by Singapore arbitration body in Future Group case
Amazon has been awarded a sum of ₹ 23.7 crore by the Singapore International Arbitration Centre (SIAC) in damages linked to the tech giant's prolonged battle with Kishore Biyani-led Future Group, a new report has said. As per a report by Bar and Bench, the SIAC ruled that Future Group had breached its contractual obligations to Amazon when it entered into an agreement with Reliance, which was in violation to the terms of the pre-existing agreement. Livemint could not independently verify the details of the sum awarded to Amazon. This article will be updated once there is a confirmation. Amazon had originally sought ₹ 1,436 crore in damages — which is the amount it invested in Future Coupons Private Limited. However, it has only been awarded ₹ 23.7 crore. The company had also sought the legal costs it incurred in the arbitration proceedings as well as cases it had fought before courts and tribunals in India. According to sources quoted by Bar and Bench, the three-member SIAC tribunal held that the Future Group had indeed breached the contract and awarded 60 per cent of the legal costs that Amazon incurred during arbitration proceedings. It also refused to grant any costs related to the initiation or defence of allied proceedings. As per estimates quoted by the legal publication, Amazon awarded ₹ 77 crore and ₹ 6 crore in legal costs and arbitration fees, as opposed to the ₹ 125 crore it spent. The three-member tribunal comprised Prof Albert Jan van den Berg, Prof Jan Paulsson and Senior Counsel Michael Hwang. Future Group and Amazon had been locked in a bitter battle for over a year following a decision by the Indian retailer to sell its Big Bazaar business to Reliance Retail, a subsidiary of Reliance Industries. The deal was opposed by NV Investment Holdings LLC on grounds that its investment of ₹ 1,400 crore in Future Coupons, which is one of promoters of Future Retail, does not allow Future to sell retail assets to certain companies, including Reliance. At stake was whether Amazon can become a bigger force in a $900 billion retail market, with 1.3 billion consumers, than Reliance.
