| Capt Amarinder Singh took a swipe at Arvind Kejriwal, saying the AAP chief was a ‘peculiar man with views on everything’. “Mr Kejriwal is a peculiar person who has a habit of commenting on matters of which he has little understanding. There is 20 million ton of paddy straw, where do I ask farmers to store? So Mr Kejriwal doesn’t understand this problem,” the Punjab CM said. While Kejriwal has been exhorting Amarinder to meet with him to discuss ways to resolve the issue of Delhi’s dangerously poor air quality, the Punjab CM has reiterated that the matter requires the Centre’s intervention. |

| The Supreme Court today sought CBI’s stand on Karti Chidambaram’s plea to go abroad. The court has asked the CBI to apprise it of its stand on November 16 on whether Karti, son of former Union minister P Chidambaram, can be conditionally allowed to go abroad for 4 to 5 days. A three-judge bench asked additional solicitor general, representing CBI, to seek instruction on the issue. During the hearing, the bench perused the documents supplied by CBI in a sealed cover relating to materials found during the investigation conducted so far. |

The move comes amid Trump’s criticism of the Communist giant’s unfair business practices and the whopping $370 billion trade deficit. The deals, which were signed at a ceremony attended by Trump and his Chinese counterpart Xi Jinping at the Great Hall of the People, included the purchase of US-made chipsets, jetliners and soybeans. Facts have shown that China and the United States have huge potential in reciprocal economic and trade cooperation, Xi said. |
