Ladakh LG announces tourism reforms for 'ease of doing business'

Srinagar: Heralding major reforms in the Union Territory, the Ladakh government on Thursday announced deregulation of the hospitality sector, freeing it from archaic rules and bureaucratic interference. Lieutenant Governor V.K.Registration validity of tour operators has been increased from one year to five years, eliminating the need for renewal every year. Tour and travel operators engaged in adventure and mountaineering activities earlier had to register separately as ‘Adventure Tour Operator’ and ‘Mountaineering Tour Operator’ at an additional registration fee of Rs 3,000. It has been abolished.A unified category has been introduced under the nomenclature ‘Travel Agent’, which will authorize the registered entity to carry out all the activities permitted under the Tourist Registration Act.The number of documents required for registration of tour operators has been significantly reduced. The new framework also removes the requirement of character certificate, a certain bank balance and educational qualification to run a tour and travel agency.The current process of homestay registration involves many procedural requirements and documentation, which often act as a barrier to local participation. The new framework reduces the number of documents required, makes the process simpler and more accessible, encourages community-based tourism and creates livelihood opportunities for local residents.The LG said the reforms, guided by PM Modi’s principle of ‘minimum government, maximum governance’, will create a safe environment for tourists, expand the tourism industry and significantly contribute to strengthening the local economy.

Put a 3-year freeze on H-1B, eliminate H-4: Rep. Crane’s new GOP bill calls for major reforms to visa programs

एच-1बी पर 3 साल की रोक लगाएं, एच-4 खत्म करें: रेप क्रेन का नया जीओपी बिल वीजा कार्यक्रमों में बड़े सुधारों की मांग करता है

The new GOP bill calls for a three-year freeze on the H-1B visa program and a ban on H-1B dependents coming to the US.

A new bill has now been added to the list of bills like EXILE, PAUSE, which seeks major changes in the H-1B visa program, which is at the center of the immigration controversy in the Trump 2.0 administration. Arizona Republican Representative Eli Crane introduced the FINAL H-1B Visa Abuse Act of 2026 in Congress. The bill’s co-sponsors are Brian Babin, Brandon Gill, Paul Gosar, Wesley Hunt, Tom McClintock, Keith Self and Andy Ogles.“The federal government must work for hardworking citizens, not the profit margins of large corporations. We have a duty to the American people to stop the broken H-1B system from locking them out of jobs they are qualified for,” Rep. Crane said, explaining that the final H-1B Visa Abuse Act of 2026 would provide greater access to employment, strengthen protocols in the visa process, and prioritize Americans’ livelihoods. “I am honored to introduce this legislation and I am grateful to those who raised awareness of this flawed process,” said Rep. Crane.

What are the proposals under the new bill?

  • Reducing the annual H-1B limit from 65,000 to 25,000 and eliminating existing exemptions.
  • Replacing the lottery system with a salary-based selection system.
  • Employers are required to certify that they cannot find a qualified U.S. worker and have not made layoffs.
  • Choosing a minimum H-1B salary of $200,000 per year.
  • Prohibiting H-1B workers from holding more than one job and preventing third-party staffing agencies from employing them.
  • Not allowing H-1B workers to bring dependents to the US.
  • Prohibiting federal agencies from sponsoring or employing nonimmigrant workers.
  • Ending optional practical training.
  • Ensuring that nonimmigrant visas remain temporary by preventing H-1B holders from adjusting to permanent residence status.
  • Nonimmigrants are required to leave the United States before changing to another nonimmigrant status.

Rosemary Jenks, an immigration policy expert who helped draft the bill, said that if H-1Bs do not get an extension and are sent home after three years, companies will have to bring in new H-1Bs and train them – making the overall process more expensive and then companies will start hiring Americans.Rep. Brandon Gill, who is married to Indian-origin Danielle D’Souza, said, “I am proud to sponsor Representative Eli Crane’s efforts to reform and tighten our H-1B visa system, ensuring that our immigration system serves American workers before foreigners.”

How India plans to become Dubai or Doha as Delhi: Plans for hub-and-spoke domestic airports india news

How India plans to create Dubai or Doha in Delhi: Plan for hub-and-spoke domestic airports

New Delhi: India is finalizing its hub-and-spoke policy to fly passengers between smaller cities and the rest of the world through cities like Delhi, Mumbai and Bengaluru. The move comes amid massive orders for wide-body aircraft from Air India and IndiGo; The era of Indian hub airports is coming which is getting ready to shift from domestic-to-international and vice versa; And the largest hubs for international travel to and from India in the Gulf such as Dubai, Abu Dhabi and Doha face uncertainty over resuming operations before February 28. Union Aviation Minister Ram Mohan Naidu on Thursday visited Delhi’s IGI airport – India’s busiest airport – to fine-tune the policy and start its implementation in the right manner and was visited by Secretary Sameer Sinha.Sinha is tackling the biggest problem for international as well as domestic travelers – they have to collect their luggage at the port of arrival in India; Clear customs and then check-in again for domestic connecting flights. “The baggage of both inbound and outbound international passengers will be transferred seamlessly through airside operations at the hub airport, eliminating the need for passenger intervention,” the aviation ministry says about the changes under the new hub-and-spoke policy.On the other hand, passengers flying out of India, such as from Lucknow to Delhi to London, can check-in their bags in Lucknow only if both their flights are on the same airline or code share partner carrier of the alliance. Operating Procedure for Domestic to International Transfers: “Under the hub-and-spoke model, passengers arriving from various smaller cities will be consolidated in a coordinated manner and routed through major hub airports like Delhi for onward international connections. At spoke (smaller origin) airports, passengers will be issued two separate boarding passes, clearly marked with ‘D’ (domestic) and ‘I’ (international) indicators,” the aviation ministry said in a statement.It added, “Customs and immigration formalities for outbound passengers will be completed at the first point of exit from the country, which will be Spokane Airport, and passengers on such outbound journeys will not have access to customs declaration facilities during transit.”Operating Procedure for International to Domestic Transfer: “For incoming passengers, customs and immigration processes will take place at the last point of entry into the country, which will again be the spoke airport…. The baggage of both inbound and outbound international passengers will be transferred seamlessly through airside operations at the hub airport, eliminating the need for passenger intervention. “To maintain operational efficiency and regulatory clarity, combination flights will not be allowed, and separate aircraft will be deployed for domestic and international segments of hub-and-spoke operations,” it said.Naidu said India aims to enable seamless connectivity between Tier-II and Tier-III airports and international destinations. “While passengers will benefit from reduced travel time, there will also be optimum utilization of the already developed infrastructure across the country,” he said.The hub and spoke strategy aims to transform India from a source market for traffic to a “global transit hub” to feed foreign airlines and hubs, allowing Indian airports to capture a larger share of the transfer traffic that is currently routed through foreign hubs.Naidu said: “Currently, about 35% of international passengers traveling from India transit through overseas hubs such as Dubai, London and Singapore. We aim to reverse this trend by developing globally competitive Indian hubs such as Delhi, Mumbai, Bangalore, Hyderabad, Kolkata and Chennai.”“For example, Delhi airport stands at a capacity of over 10 crore passengers annually, handles about 50% of the total passenger traffic in the northern region and manages about 50,000 daily transfers, thereby positioning itself as a natural hub airport,” the minister said.The implementation of this hub-and-spoke model will help airlines deploy their aircraft more efficiently for international operations, while contributing to reducing congestion at major airports by decentralizing customs and immigration processes to spoke locations, Naidu said.

Microsoft is planning its first voluntary employee buyout in the company’s 51-year history. According to a memo, Microsoft is offering voluntary retirement to thousands of its employees in the US. Microsoft has never made a purchase on this scale before. According to the report, about 7% of Microsoft’s workforce in the US will be eligible for the buyout. As of June 2025, the company had 228,000 employees, of which 125,000 were in the US, which would make about 8,750 employees eligible for the program.

Microsoft Chief People Officer Amy Coleman announced the buyout in a memo to employees.

The offer was announced to employees through a memo from Vice President and Chief People Officer Amy Coleman. “Our hope is that this program gives eligible individuals the option to take the next step on their own terms with the company’s generous support,” Coleman wrote in the memo.According to the memorandum, employees eligible for the buyout include those whose years of service and the sum of their age are 70 or more. The lump sum retirement program does not include some senior roles or sales incentive plans. Eligible employees and their managers will receive details on May 7.

Additional changes announced in buyout memo

Microsoft is also reportedly adjusting the way it distributes stock to employees for annual awards. The company will no longer directly link stock to cash bonuses to managers. That way, “managers have more flexibility to meaningfully recognize high performance,” Coleman wrote in the memo.Microsoft is also simplifying the review process for managers, so they can choose from five salary options for employees instead of nine.

Microsoft will redesign Windows 11

In other news, Microsoft is improving Windows 11 by removing outdated UI elements to provide a consistent modern design across the entire operating system. The initiative is said to target legacy components, including installation screens, remnants of Windows 8-era dialogs, and various Control Panel interfaces.

In a statement, Microsoft said, “Our goal as we move forward is to be more open when we build Windows, make sure you feel like you’re included throughout the entire lifecycle of the process of making our products, and then make sure this is a vibrant community and we’re grateful for the chance to spend some time with all of you.”

‘Deeply disturbed’: Hindu American Foundation reacts to Trump reposting racist remarks targeting Indians, Chinese

'गहराई से परेशान': हिंदू अमेरिकन फाउंडेशन ने ट्रम्प द्वारा भारतीयों, चीनियों को निशाना बनाकर नस्लवादी टिप्पणी को दोबारा पोस्ट करने पर प्रतिक्रिया व्यक्त की

The Hindu American Foundation urged President Trump to remove his Truth Social post, where he had reposted Michael Savage’s statement calling India a ‘hell-hole’.

HAF said the Hindu American Foundation reacted to President Donald Trump sharing derogatory remarks about India at a time when racism is already at its highest level. The President reported comments by commentator Michael Savage in which he called India, China and other countries “hell-holes.” The comment came in the context of the birthright citizenship law and Trump reposted it on his Truth social without adding anything to it.“A kid here becomes an instant citizen, and then they bring their whole family over to China, or India, or some other hell-hole on the planet,” Savage wrote, describing Indians and Chinese immigrants as “gangsters with laptops.”

Sharp criticism of Iran after Trump’s ‘Hellhole’ comment against India, China. ‘Cradle of Civilization’

“They have done more damage to this country than all the mafia families combined. in my humble opinion. Gangsters with laptops. They looted us indiscriminately, treated us like second-class citizens, allowed the Trud World to win, stepped on our flag, etc.”The Hindu American Foundation urged the President to remove the post as it would further increase hatred against Indians in America. “We are deeply troubled by @POTUS sharing these hateful, racist comments targeting Indian and Chinese Americans. As the President of the United States, endorsing such statements will only further fuel hatred and put our communities at risk, at a time when xenophobia and racism are already at their peak. “We ask @realDonaldTrump to reconsider, remove this post, and recognize the indelible contributions of Asian Americans to our great country,” HAF wrote.However, the US Embassy in New Delhi shed light on the controversy and said Trump had praised India and Prime Minister Narendra Modi in the past. Embassy spokesman Christopher Elam said Trump praised India at a world leaders’ summit in 2025 after the Gaza ceasefire that ended the Israel-Hamas war. Trump had said at the time, “India is a great country, with a very good friend of mine at the top and he has done a wonderful job. I think Pakistan and India will get along very well.”
