He emphasised that foreign language proficiency has become essential in today's globalised world, opening doors to opportunities in multinational companies, international organisations, and overseas employment. It also acts, he said, as a bridge between foreign tourists, investors, and local industries.Rajasthan's Tourism AngleSharma specifically highlighted Rajasthan's tourism potential as a key driver for foreign language demand. With tourism expanding rapidly under state government policies, employment opportunities have grown for guides, hotel managers, travel agents, and entrepreneurs proficient in foreign languages. The state's ability to attract visitors from across the globe makes language skills a particularly high-value asset for its workforce, he noted.With the MoUs now formalised, the next step will be rolling out structured training programmes under the EFLU and NSDC partnerships — a process that will determine whether the initiative translates into measurable employment outcomes for Rajasthan's youth.

These transactions were reportedly carried out through the US dollar-based financial system, providing the IRGC with hard currency used to finance missiles, drones, and weapons transfers to regional proxies including Hezbollah, Hamas, and the Houthi rebels.The report notes that Hengli Petrochemical, described as China's second-largest independent refinery, received more than five million barrels of IRGC-affiliated crude through this same network. Payments were layered through third-country intermediaries to conceal the origin of Iranian crude.Why the US Shifted StrategyEarlier US efforts targeted individual components of this evasion system, which proved insufficient — the clandestine ecosystem survived because China had built the infrastructure to sustain it, according to the report. This time, Washington is reportedly aiming to dismantle the entire network rather than its individual nodes.In its latest action, the US sanctioned 35 entities and individuals running Iran's shadow banking system, simultaneously hit 19 shadow fleet vessels, and put every company paying IRGC tolls for Strait of Hormuz passage on notice. Analysts and the report's authors describe this as a qualitative escalation in enforcement posture.China's Dual Strategic InterestThe Sky News Australia report argues that China had a dual motive in sustaining the arrangement. Chinese refiners benefited from Iranian crude at steep discounts unavailable on open markets. At the same time, the report states, every successful evasion transaction "stress-tested the financial infrastructure Xi intended to activate over Taiwan."In other words, the report suggests Beijing was using Iran as "a rehearsal space" — refining sanction-evasion methods that could be deployed on a far wider scale if China itself faced US sanctions, for instance in a scenario involving Taiwan.What Happens NextThe ceasefire has paused the kinetic dimension of the conflict, but the economic pressure built by the blockade reportedly continues to operate independently. With 35 entities sanctioned and 19 vessels simultaneously targeted, the scope of the latest US action marks a significant departure from the piecemeal approach of previous years. Whether the shadow network can reconstitute itself — as it has before — remains the central question for both Tehran and Beijing in the months ahead.

In the meantime, an email was suddenly sent stating that the strong room would reopen at 4 pm. We contacted our workers, who said they had already left. We then rushed back to the spot."Mamata Banerjee Keeps Overnight VigilTMC supremo and Chief Minister Mamata Banerjee reached the strong room at the Shakhawat Memorial counting centre — where EVMs from her own Bhabanipur Assembly constituency are stored — and remained at the site for more than two to three hours. She stood vigil in her capacity as a candidate, accompanied by Firhad (Bobby) Hakim, the TMC candidate from the Kolkata Port constituency.After reviewing arrangements, Banerjee directed TMC candidates across West Bengal to maintain continuous overnight vigil outside strong rooms, instructing them to make arrangements for food, water, and rotation of personnel.Election Commission Denies AllegationsThe Election Commission of India (ECI) rejected the TMC's allegations of irregularities, stating that candidates had been informed in advance about postal ballot procedures through email communication. According to the Commission, the strong room at Netaji Indoor Stadium houses EVMs from seven Assembly constituencies in north Kolkata. All strong rooms were sealed in the presence of candidates, election agents, and observers after polling concluded on Wednesday, with the final strong room sealed at 5:15 am on Thursday.The Commission also clarified that a separate strong room for postal ballots was set up at the adjacent Khudiram Anushilan Kendra, where postal ballots from different centres have been stored and sorted constituency-wise.TMC Demands and ResolutionTMC's Ghosh placed several demands before the Commission, including installation of CCTV cameras at the postal ballot strong room, live display of footage outside, permission for candidate representatives to monitor the screens, and no obstruction by police personnel. TMC also raised concerns over alleged non-compliance with rules relating to postal ballots.After the Election Commission provided assurances on the necessary measures, the TMC candidates withdrew their protest. BJP workers subsequently called off their demonstration as well. With counting day approaching, tensions across West Bengal are expected to remain elevated as both parties maintain overnight watch at strong rooms across the state.
