Skilling Renewables
India stands at a critical juncture in its energy transition journey, aiming to achieve 500 GW of renewable capacity by 2030.
Protests against the Citizenship Amendment Act have taken a violent turn in northeast Delhi since Saturday which has now claimed five lives including a Head Constable of the Delhi Police on Monday. Chief Minister Arvind Kejriwal has called an urgent meeting of all the MLAs on Tuesday as violence continues in Maujpur, Jaffrabad, Bhajanpur, Yamuna Vihar, Chand Bagh and Gokulpuri with incidents of stone-pelting.
Delhi Police and Rapid Action Force (RAF) personnel also held a flag march in the Brahampuri area, after stone-pelting incidents were reported between two groups in the area.
With reports of mobs torching shops and homes using petrol bombs, the Delhi government ordered all private and government schools in the violence-affected Northeast Delhi district to remain shut on Tuesday. Internal examinations in government schools have also been postponed. “Internal exams will not be held in schools in the violence-affected Northeast Delhi district. All private and government schools will remain shut. I have spoken to HRD minister Dr R P Nishank and requested that board exams in this area be suspended,” Deputy Chief Minister Manish Sisodia tweeted.
