 According to the IMD, moderate rainfall with thunderstorms and a dust storm is expected over the NCR region for the next hour. 

 While the fresh date for the NEET retest is yet to be announced, NTA Director General stated that the schedule will be announced within the “next 7 to 10 days.” 

 Adani’s hiring of Robert Giuffra, one of Trump’s personal lawyers, and an offer to invest $10 billion in the US economy played a key role, said NYT.
