Today, July 22nd, marks a busy day in the Indian economic and political landscape. Key events include the tabling of the Economic Survey 2023-24 by Finance Minister Nirmala Sitharaman, the release of Q1FY25 earnings by various companies, the opening of new IPOs for subscription, crucial court hearings, and the commencement of the Andhra Pradesh Assembly session.
Former Pakistani Prime Minister Imran Khan has accused Chief Justice of Pakistan (CJP) Qazi Faez Isa of being biased against his party, Pakistan Tehreek-e-Insaf (PTI). Khan, who is currently in jail, urged the courts to expedite hearings of his cases, saying that the delays were unjust and that all cases against him were false and baseless. Khan also criticized CJP Isa’s recent statement, saying that he was behaving like a ‘B-team’ against the PTI and that the decisions being coerced through threats were dismantling Pakistan’s judicial system. Khan expressed willingness to hold talks, but only if his stolen mandate was returned and imprisoned PTI workers were released.
