Bharat Bandh In Tamil Nadu: Are Chennai Schools Closed Today?
1/7 A nationwide general strike is scheduled for July 9, with demonstrators calling for the fulfilment of a 17-point charter of demands, notably the reinstatement of the old pension scheme for central and state government employees. 2/7 In Tamil Nadu, 13 trade unions, including the DMK-affiliated Labour Progressive Federation (LPF) and the CITU, which is associated with the Communist Party of India (Marxist), have declared their support. 3/7 Due to the involvement of the ruling DMK's trade union, bus services across Tamil Nadu, including those in Chennai, are expected to be significantly disrupted. Conversely, the Anna Trade Union, affiliated with the opposition AIADMK, is not participating, suggesting a limited number of buses may still operate. As the majority of auto-rickshaw workers are associated with the CITU, auto services are also likely to be severely affected. However, as traders' associations have not endorsed the strike, most shops and commercial establishments are expected to function normally. The banking and insurance sectors have confirmed their participation in the strike. 5/7 Tamil Nadu Chief Secretary Muruganandam has issued a stern warning that any state government employees or teachers who join the strike will face withheld salaries and departmental disciplinary action. Meanwhile, the strike's impact on schools remains uncertain. In response, many schools across Tamil Nadu have announced closures for the day. In Puducherry, most private schools are expected to remain shut, though no formal communication has been issued regarding government institutions.

📋 No Paredes: Boca squad named to face Argentinos Juniors
The Xeneize have announced the squad list for their visit to La Paternal in their debut in the 2025 Clausura Tournament of the Professional Football League (LPF). After the presentation of Leandro Paredes at La Bombonera, Boca Juniors face their debut in the 2025 Clausura Tournament of the Professional Football League (LPF) against Argentinos Juniors at La Paternal. Advertisement Miguel Ángel Russo has called up 25 players for the championship debut, and there are several notable absences from the list. Paredes, who was welcomed by 50,000 people at the stadium, will have to wait a little longer before wearing the blue and gold shirt again. The World Cup-winning midfielder has trained with his new teammates, but was left out of the squad. Ander Herrera, Milton Giménez, and Ayrton Costa, who are not yet 100% fit, are also not on the list. Meanwhile, Carlos Palacios did not train due to a fever, but was ultimately included among the called-up players and may even start. Cristian Lema, Marcos Rojo, Sergio 'Chiquito' Romero, Esteban Rolón, and Marcelo Saracchi are also missing, as the coaching staff are not counting on them and they could seek a move in this transfer window. Advertisement Exequiel Zeballos is not among those called up, despite having trained normally since returning from the Club World Cup; while Camilo Rey Domenech was also not called up and seems to have fallen out of Russo's plans. Thus, the possible Boca Juniors starting eleven against Argentinos Juniors would be: Agustín Marchesin; Luis Advíncula, Nicolás Figal, Marco Pellegrino, and Lautaro Blanco; Kevin Zenón, Rodrigo Battaglia, Williams Alarcón, and Carlos Palacios or Malcom Braida; Alan Velasco and Miguel Merentiel.
