Opposition block: On the INDIA bloc staring at a crisis
Mr. Kumar had been at the forefront of championing a broad alliance of Opposition parties to take on the might of the ruling BJP in the upcoming general election. Trinamool Congress chief Mamata Banerjee and the Aam Aadmi Party’s Bhagwant Mann, Chief Ministers of West Bengal and Punjab, respectively, have meanwhile ruled out seat-sharing with the Congress in their States. The alliance is staring at a crisis in the battle of perception and in building a robust structure for a joint campaign or election strategy. The Opposition parties may have to look at State-level alliances, and the possibility of post-poll alliances. The BJP, meanwhile, has ramped up its campaign, not merely to win the election but also to extinguish the last signs of opposition to it.

World Court orders Israel to prevent acts of genocide in Gaza, fails to order ceasefire - Telegraph India
South Africa, which brought the case, had asked for the court to order Israel to halt its operation. In the highly anticipated decision made by a panel of 17 judges, the International Court of Justice decided not to throw out the case. Israel rejects the genocide accusation and had asked the court to throw the charges out. Provisional measures by the world court are legally binding, but it is not clear if Israel would comply with any order. The genocide case strikes at the national identity of Israel, which was founded as a Jewish state after the Nazi slaughter of 6 million Jews during World War II.

Evergrande's possible liquidation and what happens next
If a liquidation order is issued, a provisional liquidator and then an official liquidator will be appointed to take control and prepare to sell the developer's assets to repay its debts.

Evergrande could appeal a liquidation order, but the liquidation process would proceed pending appeal. It is unclear if Evergrande shares would be suspended from trading after a liquidation order.
