Tanzania’s Independent National Electoral Commission disqualified opposition presidential candidate Luhaga Mpina for the second time on Monday, reversing an order from two days earlier that had reinstated his nomination. Mpina, leader of ACT-Wazalendo, Tanzania’s second-largest opposition party, had his nomination papers accepted by INEC following a high-court ruling. That court decision had overturned an earlier disqualification. But the electoral commission, citing procedural irregularities, reimposed the ban. With […]

Dubai International Airport has deployed over 520 hearing loops across its three terminals to support passengers with hearing loss. The system, which allows travellers using hearing aids or cochlear implants to hear announcements clearly by switching to the ‘T’ setting, requires no pairing or extra equipment.

The devices are now installed at critical passenger touchpoints including check-in counters, immigration desks, boarding gates and information desks. The initiative is part of DXB’s broader accessibility drive under Dubai’s Universal Design Code, which mandates inclusive access in public facilities and transport infrastructure. Staff across frontline operations have also been trained to assist guests of determination.

Majed Al Joker, Chief Operating Officer at Dubai Airports, said this move demonstrates a commitment to enabling every traveller to move through the airport “with ease, dignity, and confidence.” The rollout was supported by oneDXB partners including airlines, airport services, customs, police, and ground handling agencies.

Globally, about 1.5 billion people live with some degree of hearing loss, a figure projected by the World Health Organisation to rise to 2.5 billion by 2050. Experts say transport hubs like airports are under increasing pressure to provide accessibility services that do not add friction for travellers. Implementation of hearing loops is among the measures considered most effective because of their unobtrusive nature and compatibility with existing devices.

A Delhi court barred several journalists and activists from publishing or circulating unverified, allegedly defamatory material about Adani Enterprises Ltd, also ordering the removal of existing posts within strict timeframes while safeguarding fair reporting—Adani Enterprises Secures Ex Parte Injunction Against Journalists, Activists.

A bench presided over by Senior Civil Judge Anuj Kumar Singh passed an ex parte interim order on Saturday, 6 September 2025, directing defendants—including Paranjoy Guha Thakurta, Ravi Nair, Abir Dasgupta, Ayaskanta Das, Ayush Joshi and certain organisations—to expunge allegedly defamatory material from their websites, articles and social media posts. If the removal by the authors proved infeasible, intermediaries were instructed to disable access within 36 hours pursuant to the Information Technology Rules. The order also restrained publication or dissemination of further unverified content until the next hearing on 9 October 2025.

The court accepted AEL’s submission that coordinated publications on platforms such as paranjoy. in, adaniwatch. org and adanifiles. com. au had inflicted serious reputational damage, financial losses to stakeholders and harm to India’s global brand equity, further alleging alignment with “anti-India interests” that disrupted critical infrastructure and energy projects, including Australian operations. Citing the Hindenburg Research report of 2023, which had alleged massive stock manipulation and accounting fraud causing a collapse in market value, AEL argued the repeated references by defendants exacerbated investor anxiety and project delays.

Judge Singh ruled the plaintiff had satisfied the conventional three-part test for interim relief—presenting a prima facie case, showing balance of convenience in its favour and establishing risk of irreparable harm. At the same time, he acknowledged constitutional free-speech guarantees, declining to impose a blanket ban on fair, verified, and substantiated reporting, thus maintaining space for responsible journalism.

AEL’s counsel, Advocate Vijay Aggarwal, emphasised that unrestrained publication of malicious allegations risked undermining investor confidence, delaying infrastructure timelines, and tarnishing both the firm’s and the nation’s image. The court responded by allowing AEL to flag further problematic links for takedown, while intermediaries such as Google, YouTube and X were enjoined to act swiftly on notifications.

The order, codenamed CS SCJ 1066/2025, also stipulates procedural directives for service of summons via post, email and WhatsApp, with the next hearing scheduled for 9 October 2025.

The campaign began when GitGuardian noted a suspicious commit on 2 September by […]
