The UN team’s visit will take place – on January 25 and 26 – amid increasing pressure on Pakistan from the US and India on the inadequate implementation of the sanctions on Saeed and entities linked to him. The UNSC team, one Pakistani diplomatic source said, will visit to discuss “official information” on issues relating to the banned outfits and implementation of UN sanctions. |

| India’s banking sector will be saddled with gross non-performing assets (GNPAs) worth a staggering Rs 9.5 lakh crore by March-end, a report said today. The high level of stressed assets in the banking system, however, provide enormous opportunity for asset reconstruction companies (ARCs) which are important stakeholders in the NPA resolution process, said the Assocham-Crisil study. At the same time, it said, the growth of ARCs is expected to come down significantly owing to capital constraints. |
| Delhi Police today arrested Indian Mujahideen (IM) co-founder Abdul Subhan Qureshi, one of the most wanted terrorists in the country for masterminding the 2008 Gujarat blasts. DCP Pramod Kushwaha said that Qureshi, who had gone underground for the last several years, had returned to India to meet an old acquaintance in Ghazipur. “Abdul Subhan Qureshi was living with forged documents in Nepal. He came back to India to revive Indian Mujahideen,” DCP Kushwaha said. Qureshi, 46, who was nabbed after a brief exchange of fire, has been sent to police remand for 14 days. |
