Rush Hour: Rupee sinks to all-time low, BJP seeks audit of 1.2 crore entries in Bengal SIR and more
The Indian rupee fell to an all-time low of 89.7 against the United States dollar. This came amid sluggish trade activity and portfolio flows, coupled with uncertainty about a trade deal between Washington and New Delhi.
United States President Donald Trump had said on November 10 that his country was getting close to a “fair deal” with India. However, the delay in the announcement of the trade deal and the resulting uncertainty about the future of exports were creating a stir across the market.

The Bharatiya Janata Party has demanded an audit of 1.2 crore digitisation entries made between October 26 and October 28 in the special intensive revision of electoral rolls in West Bengal. The party has alleged irregularities in the exercise, claiming that the rise in the digitisation numbers from 5.5 crore to 6.7 crore was “an abnormal and statistically impossible”.
It also alleged that the surge was achieved not by booth-level officers, but by a political consultancy group, “known to be very close to the ruling TMC”, illegally performing the digitisation tasks.

The petitioners had told the court that only six months were provided to register the properties on the portal, which was “very less” because not all details were available. They also said that the portal had several glitches and that they were only seeking more time to comply with the registration, as required by the Act.
However, the Union government contended that the tribunal can make exemptions on a case-by-case basis. Read on.
