Supply shock: Middle East conflict disrupts shipments and raw material flows, CII signals stress on entire Indian industry

Highlighting growing tensions in sectors dependent on global trade flows, the Confederation of Indian Industry (CII) on Sunday said Indian companies are facing supply-chain disruptions ranging from shipment delays to shortages of key raw materials due to the ongoing conflict in the Middle East.Companies are already seeing “downstream impacts” as the conflict has disrupted key sea routes and tightened supply conditions in global markets, CII Director General Chandrajit Banerjee said in a statement, quoted by PTI.

“Indian companies are facing downstream impacts, ranging from shipment delays to disruptions in key energy inputs, as well as emerging shortages of essential raw materials and intermediates in many sectors that are heavily dependent on timely cross-border flows,” Banerjee said.The industry body said the disruptions have also put pressure on energy markets and trade, affecting both imports and exports and impacting manufacturing and allied industries.“The conflict in the Middle East has disrupted vital sea routes and put pressure on global supply chains, energy markets, and both imports and exports,” Banerjee said.Despite emerging challenges, CII said India is better placed than before to absorb external shocks. Banerjee said the country has entered this phase “from a position of strength”, supported by structural reforms and the government’s Atmanirbhar Bharat effort, which has strengthened domestic resilience.The industry lobby described the government’s response as “prompt, calibrated and sustained”, citing measures such as diversification of crude oil sourcing, maximizing LPG production, export facilitation and currency stabilization.According to CII, Indian industry is adapting to the shocks by accelerating energy diversification, optimizing supply chains and protecting jobs.It also highlighted the importance of continued investments in renewable energy, green hydrogen, biofuels and energy efficiency, calling them strategic imperatives to reduce vulnerability to geopolitical energy shocks.“While the situation remains challenging, we are confident that the government’s approach, coupled with partnership-driven engagement with all stakeholders, will help India weather this shock and maintain its forward economic momentum,” Banerjee said.CII said the challenge is important, but so is India’s ability to respond proactively and secure its economic interests.

US House resolution seeks ‘genocide’ tag for Pakistan’s 1971 atrocities on Bengali Hindus

US House resolution seeks 'genocide' tag for Pakistan's 1971 atrocities on Bengali Hindus

US Congressman Greg Landesman has introduced a resolution in the House of Representatives demanding recognition of the atrocities committed by the Pakistan Army and its allies against Bengali Hindus in 1971 as war crimes and genocide.Landesman, a Democrat from Ohio, introduced the proposal Friday. It has been sent to the House Committee on Foreign Affairs.In March 1971, Pakistan military units, in collaboration with radical Islamic groups inspired by the ideology of Jamaat-e-Islami, launched a massive crackdown in East Pakistan (now Bangladesh) under the codename ‘Operation Searchlight’, resulting in mass killings of civilians, especially Bengali Hindus.

‘Mass murder of Bengali Hindus’

The resolution states that the Pakistani military and its Islamist allies “carried out indiscriminate mass murder of ethnic Bengalis without regard to religion and gender, killed their political leaders, intellectuals, professionals and students, and forced thousands of women to work as their sex slaves.”“They specifically targeted the religious minority Hindus for destruction through mass massacres, mass rape, conversion and forced expulsion,” it said.Also, the proposal states that the entire community should not be held responsible for the actions of individuals.

‘Blood Telegram’

The resolution cites a telegram sent by Archer Blood, Consul General of the United States of America in Dhaka, on March 28, 1971, titled ‘Selective Genocide’. “Furthermore, with the support of Pak Army, non-Bengali Muslims are systematically attacking poor people’s dwellings and killing Bengalis and Hindus,” he wrote in the message.It also mentions the April 6, 1971 communication known as the “Blood Telegram”, in which Blood formally objected to the US government’s silence on the “genocide”.“But we have also decided not to intervene morally on the grounds that the Awami conflict, to which unfortunately the term genocide applies, is entirely an internal matter of a sovereign state,” the message, signed by 20 members of the Consulate, said.Based on these accounts, the resolution urges the House to condemn the actions of Pakistani armed forces against Bengali Hindus as crimes against humanity, war crimes and genocide.On the night of March 25, 1971, the Government of Pakistan imprisoned Sheikh Mujibur Rahman after winning the general elections. Following the atrocities, India went to war with Pakistan, resulting in the surrender of the Pakistani army and the creation of Bangladesh.

How did Ryan Gosling’s ‘dream’ casting for ‘Project Hail Mary’ come about? |

How did Ryan Gosling's 'dream' casting for 'Project Hail Mary' come about?
Los Angeles, March 22 (IANS) Hollywood star Ryan Gosling’s casting for ‘Project Hail Mary’ has been called “a dream” by the film’s writer.

The casting of Hollywood star Ryan Gosling for ‘Project Hail Mary’ has been called “a dream” by the film’s writer. Screenwriter Drew Goddard was confident when writing the script because he knew Ryan would be able to handle whatever he wrote and that he was “in good hands with our lead.”She told The Hollywood Reporter, “It was a dream. Ryan Gosling was already attached to me when he came to me. Any fear I had about how we were going to pull it off was immediately dispelled by the knowledge that Ryan was doing this with us”.“He can do anything. Whatever I write, he’ll be able to get it done. It showed that it was going to be really hard, but it also showed that we were in good hands with our lead,” he said.‘Project Hail Mary’ is based on the 2021 science fiction novel by American author Andy Weir, which tells the story of Ryland Grace, a school teacher and former biologist who wakes up in a spaceship suffering from amnesia.While film budgets are being cut across the board, Goddard stressed that ‘Project Hail Mary’ needs its mega budget and he hopes its success will provide hope for new projects across the board.He said, “A lot of my concern about budget has to do with the decision to do the project. Before I start writing, I want to make sure that what I think it will cost will be in line with what we think it will cost. I’ve learned from experience, if they feel comfortable, they’ll drive me crazy. So, something like Cabin in the Woods was pretty crazy. I knew we needed to make it cheaply. So I write it to be economical, because then They’ll let me eat bananas at the end. Also, there was no cheap version of this film”.“We’re not making it until we’re older and doing things we like. But it felt like the kind of movie you’re going to show your kids, you’re going to bring your grandparents to. That’s what you’re looking for to justify the budget. And when I’m writing it, I try to be thoughtful. But I never try to reduce the ambition. I have a very big imagination. Chris and Phil’s imagination is even bigger. Once we decide to say yes, we don’t really think about the budget. It’s more about what will make the best movie. I don’t want to sound completely optimistic. What is happening is sad but we are going down swinging. And we are definitely moving forward with this film”, he added.‘Project Hail Mary’ will be released in theaters on March 26.

See: Israel’s ‘Small India’ shaken by missile attack, more than 40 injured in Iran’s attack; Videos show chaos

Iranian missile attacks on southern Israel have caused scenes of chaos in Dimona, known as “Little India” for its large Indian-origin population, as video circulating online shows the moment a ballistic missile struck residential areas.At least 47 people were injured in Dimona after a missile carrying a heavy weapon hit a community building, damaging nearby houses and causing panic among residents. The injured included a 12-year-old boy who was in critical condition after being hit by shrapnel, while dozens of others suffered minor injuries or trauma as they fled to shelters. Emergency responders described “widespread damage and chaos”, with footage showing buildings on fire and debris strewn across the streets.Trump gives Iran 48-hour ultimatum to open Strait of Hormuz – follow live updates
Dimona, home to Israel’s nuclear research facility, has long been nicknamed “Little India” due to its strong Indian-Jewish community, many of whom trace their roots to Maharashtra, according to a PTI report. The city’s streets are lined with Indian shops, Marathi is widely spoken, and cultural ties with India are deeply ingrained. A few hours later, a second missile struck the nearby city of Arad, causing increased damage. In both cities, more than 100 people, including children, were injured, many of whom are in critical condition. Israeli officials said that air defense systems attempted to intercept the missiles but failed, resulting in a direct attack that caused widespread destruction.The Israeli military has launched an investigation into the interception failure and said the incident “will be investigated”. Officials confirmed that interceptors were deployed but the incoming threats could not be successfully neutralized.Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu described it as a “very difficult evening”, adding that he had spoken to the mayor of Arad and ordered full government assistance for those affected. “We are determined to continue attacking our enemies on all fronts,” he said, urging citizens to follow security instructions.Israel’s Foreign Ministry accused Iran of deliberately targeting civilians, and called the attacks “a blatant war crime” and “pure terrorism.” Opposition leaders, including former prime ministers, also expressed solidarity with residents, calling the attacks a “major disaster”.However, Iran said the attack on Dimona was a response to an earlier attack on its Natanz nuclear facility, although Israel denied involvement in that incident. The UN nuclear watchdog confirmed it has no sign of damage to Israel’s nuclear site, but called for “maximum military restraint” to avoid further escalation.

Numerology Predictions Today, March 22, 2026: Read Your Personal Forecast for Numbers 1 to 9

1 (People who are born on 1st, 10th, 19th and 28th of any month are ruled by numerology number 1)Today gives preference to teamwork that is practical, not demonstrative. If you’re dealing with something revolving around a partnership, a client agreement, or even a simple household agreement about chores and expenses, this is a good day to lay it out in clear terms. You will do best when you lead with fairness, not force. A quick meeting or call can fix work that could not go on for weeks, provided you listen carefully while speaking. Keep your promises realistic; It’s better to commit to a solid delivery than impress with a long list. Money matters are better when responsibilities are shared and recorded, so save a screenshot, confirm over email, or write it down. While traveling or while talking in the corridor, you may meet someone who will be useful to you later. Stay warm, but keep boundaries clear. Today compromise brings stability and stability brings development.Lucky Number: 9Auspicious colours: red, maroon, pinkTip for the day: Write down the conditions before you shake hands.2 (People who are born on 2nd, 11th, 20th or 29th of any month are governed by numerology number 2)Today your emotional level is elevated and this is not a bad thing. You may desire closeness, reassurance or simply a softer tone from the people around you. Say what you need in clear language, rather than waiting for others to guess. A gentle family conversation over tea, or an honest message to a friend, can clear the air instantly. This sensitivity also wants an outlet, so give it an outlet. Music while you cook, a short sketch, journaling after work, or even neatly organizing your study notes can be surprisingly therapeutic. If you’re in a relationship, avoid silently testing the other person; Ask, listen and respond. Choose collaboration over competition in the workplace, but don’t take on extra work just to be liked. Your best moments today come from honest connection and a small act of self-expression that feels like you, not like the audience.Lucky Number: 1Auspicious colors: Red, orange, yellow, goldenTip for the day: State your need clearly, without apologies or drama.

3 (People born on 3rd, 12th, 21st or 30th of any month have the root number 3)If paperwork, permissions or official channels are involved, temper your expectations today. Things may move slowly, and slow may feel like someone is wasting your time. A pending reimbursement, a legal question, or a business follow-up may bounce between departments with vague answers and missing attachments. Don’t let irritation motivate you to sign, pay, or commit to getting it over with. Read each line, especially the date, penalty and renewal sections. If you have a meeting with a consultant or salesperson, treat it as information gathering, not a decision day. Keep copies of receipts and messages and double-check names and spelling before submitting the form. Use the wait time wisely: update your files, clear your inbox, and list the questions you still need answered. Patience is your best protection today, and delay may save you from a costly mistake later.Lucky Number: 2Auspicious colors: White, cream, light blueTip for the day: Delay signing until you understand the meaning of each section.4 (People who are born on 4th, 13th, 22nd or 31st of any month are governed by numerology number 4)This is a strong day for practical details, especially money matters, which require consistent action. If you’ve applied for a loan, credit enhancement, or money for business growth, don’t assume the file will move forward on its own. Call, send reminder mails and ask which document is still pending. Your efforts matter today, and a proactive approach may bring a favorable response sooner than expected. Have your figures ready: estimated costs, repayment plan and a realistic timeline. Also at home, you may feel the urge to organize future expenses, perhaps planning repairs or a new appliance. Avoid casual borrowing among friends; Keep it professional and clean. If an elder or mentor gives advice, take it seriously, even if it seems conservative. This day rewards discipline and perseverance. A well-crafted follow-up can open up the next step for you.Lucky Number: 3Lucky colors: yellow, pink, light purpleTip for the day: Follow through, and keep all documents in order.5 (People who are born on 5th, 14th or 23rd of any month have their radix number 5)Today your mind is on the long term. You’ll think about where your career is going, how to boost your savings or what skills can put you ahead. The mood is upbeat, and ideas come immediately, but it is also a place where you can travel. You may be tempted to agree to a plan without checking the details or buy something for “future use” without reading the warranty and return rules. If you’re comparing courses, memberships, or travel bookings, stop and scan the fine print twice. A friend’s enthusiastic suggestion may seem right, but your life is not their life. Keep your calendar realistic too; Overbooking today may result in cancellation tomorrow. Taking a short walk after lunch can calm the mind and help you sort the practical thoughts from the fascinating ones. Yes, think big, but act small and precise. Your best decision today will be the one you verify, not the one you make in a hurry.Lucky Number: 4Auspicious Colour: Blue, Grey, SilverTip for the day: Check the terms carefully before signing up or getting paid.6 (People who are born on 6th, 15th or 24th of any month are governed by numerology number 6)You have lots of energy today, but this may manifest as impatience as the day feels slow. Small irritations, a late cab, a colleague repeating the same thing, a family member asking the same question can result in a sharp response. The important thing is to recognize the first increase in your tone and step back before it becomes a pattern. You can still be direct, just keep it clean. If you have a workout planned, do it; Physical exertion will help you relieve fatigue and return to your normal heat. In friendships and close relationships, choose repair over victory. A quick apology, or a simple “I’m stressed today, give me a minute”, can prevent unnecessary hurt. Avoid sending heated messages; Talk in person or at least on call. Your drive is useful for getting things done, but your bonds need to be handled more gently. Lead with caution, not speed.Lucky Number: 5Lucky color: green, turquoiseTip for the day: Pause before responding, especially to loved ones.7 (People who are born on 7th, 16th or 25th of any month are affected by numerology number 7)Power dynamics have come into focus today, and you’ll see them even in the most ordinary places. A team discussion, a family decision, or a group chat can quietly turn into a question about who has the final say. Your challenge is to maintain your position without turning it into an ego competition. If you’re in charge, share credit and keep instructions clear. If you’re not, speak with facts and calm timing, not sarcasm. People will test limits today, sometimes unknowingly, so be consistent. Avoid the temptation to “teach someone a lesson”; It wastes your energy and creates long memories. A good trick is to ask a pointed question, then remain silent and let the answer come. In the evening, you may feel like staying away from the noise and focusing on your studies or planning. He is healthy until he becomes angry. Balance authority with humility, and you’ll come across as respectful, not angry.Lucky number: 6Lucky color: Blue, pink, sky blueTip for the day: Be firm, but don’t turn it into arrogance.8 (People who are born on 8th, 17th or 26th of any month have their radix number 8)Today your mind leans towards meaning. Regular social interactions can feel draining, and you may prefer a quiet corner, a serious book, or a thoughtful conversation with an older or well-educated person. If you go to the temple, offer regular prayers, or even do a few minutes of silent meditation, it will satisfy you more than any entertainment. You may also be drawn to philosophical study, listening to a sermon, or revisiting a piece of writing that once shaped your thinking. Don’t judge yourself for wanting to distance yourself from parties or impromptu plans; This isn’t exactly that kind of day. At work, keep your conversations respectful and concise, and keep your deep focus on tasks that require strategy. If someone tries to drag you into gossip, exit politely. Your inner life is active today, and it can sharpen your decisions if you protect your time. Choose depth over noise and by evening you will feel settled.Lucky number: 7Auspicious colors: Purple, violet, whiteTip for the day: Spend time in quiet study, not in idle gossip.9 (People who are born on 9th, 18th or 27th of any month are governed by numerology number 9)Caution is the theme today, especially when it comes to speed, equipment and distractions. If you are travelling, do not multitask. Put the phone away, keep an eye on the road while crossing the road and avoid the temptation to take shortcuts on a two-wheeler or hurry up the stairs. Even at home, pay attention to small safety habits: turn off the gas properly, mop up wet areas on the floor, and handle blades and hot utensils with care. Excitement can make you clumsy, so keep your movements and speech slow. If someone provokes you, do not answer in the same anger; This only increases the risk. Work may bring up a small crisis that seems urgent, but often a clear mind and double-checking will resolve it. Hydrate, eat on time and avoid skipping meals, as low energy can lead to irritability. Today gives results of calm, steady behavior. Keep yourself safe by taking simple precautions, and the day will go by quite smoothly.Lucky Number: 8Auspicious colors: Brown, black, dark blueTip for the day: Go slow; Safety beats speed every time.

In conversation with the President of Iran, PM Modi condemned attacks on infrastructure, said shipping routes should remain open. india news

ईरान के राष्ट्रपति से बातचीत में पीएम मोदी ने बुनियादी ढांचे पर हमलों की निंदा की, कहा कि जहाज मार्ग खुले रहने चाहिएIn a post on Twitter, Modi said he also condemned attacks on critical infrastructure “in the region” that threaten regional stability and disrupt global supply chains. While Modi has clearly condemned the violation of sovereignty and territorial integrity of the GCC countries, which are vital to India’s energy and diaspora interests, he has not condemned the US-Israel attacks on Iran. However, in his last conversation with Pezeshkian, Modi had told him that India is a friend of Iran.

In conversation with Iran's President, Modi condemned attacks on infrastructure, said shipping routes should remain open.

Pezeshkian again urged India, as the current BRICS Chair, to leverage its “independent role” to stop US-Israeli hostilities against Iran. According to the Iranian account of the talks, they further underlined that a condition for ending the war is an immediate cessation of aggression by the US and Israel, as well as guarantees against their recurrence in the future.Separately, External Affairs Minister S Jaishankar spoke to his Iranian counterpart Seyed Abbas Araghchi and discussed the conflict in West Asia and its implications for the larger region.This week saw a dramatic escalation of the conflict when Israel attacked Iran’s South Pars gas field and Tehran retaliated with an attack on Qatar’s Ras Laffan industrial city, a global LNG hub. Modi had spoken to the Emir of Qatar, Tamim bin Hamad Al Thani, and leaders of other GCC countries and condemned the attacks on energy infrastructure in the region. On attacks on energy installations, the Prime Minister limited himself to condemning attacks “in the region” and did not name any countries.After the attack on its gas fields, Iran had targeted the energy centers of Saudi Arabia, Kuwait and UAE besides Qatar. On Saturday, the PM also wished Pezeshkian a happy Eid and Nowruz. Thanking Iran for ensuring the safety of Indian citizens, he said, “We expressed hope that this festive season will bring peace, stability and prosperity to West Asia.”
