Morning Filter: PM Modi to open Kartavya Path

1. PM Modi to inaugurate Kartavya Path & unveil Netaji statue today Prime Minister Narendra Modi will inaugurate the newly-christened Kartavya Path -- a stretch from Rashtrapati Bhavan to India Gate that will have red granite walkways with greenery all around, refurbished canals, state-wise food stalls, new amenity blocks and vending kiosks. 2. Bharat Jodo Yatra takes off The National Flag and the values it embodied are under attack from the BJP and the RSS, which not only divide people on the basis of religion and language but also treat the Tricolour as their “personal property”, former Congress president Rahul Gandhi said, formally launching Bharat Jodo Yatra in Kanniyakumari on Wednesday. 3. Onam celebrations today The rain has seemingly abated, raising hope that weather might not play spoilsport on the much-anticipated Thiruonam day. Onam marks the apogee of the auspicious first month of the Malayalam Calendar, Chingam. 4. Hijab | SC bench would continue hearing arguments in the matter on Thursday The Supreme Court on Wednesday said that the question in the Karnataka Hijab ban matter is only about the restriction in schools as nobody is prohibited from wearing it anywhere else they want. 5. Liz Truss rules out windfall tax for oil companies Speaking during her first session of prime minister’s questions in the House of Commons, Truss rebuffed opposition calls for a new windfall tax, even as she refrained from explaining how she would fund a plan meant to help the public pay energy bills skyrocketing because of Russia’s invasion of Ukraine. The plan is expected to be delivered on Thursday. 6. Caroline Garcia to face Ons Jabeur in U.S. Open semi final on Thursday Tunisia’s Ons Jabeur became the first African woman in history to reach the semi-finals of the US Open on Tuesday as France’s Caroline Garcia ended the hopes of American teenager Coco Gauff to advance to the last four.
