										<content:encoded><![CDATA[<p>Kerala experienced a surge in Covid cases of 24,296 in the week following Onam. This is the greatest amount in the last three months, according to reports. After 11 days, the enormous surge lifted the national count of new cases back above 37,000.</p>
<p>On Tuesday, India received 37,642 new cases, the highest single-day total since August 13. According to statistics, Kerala accounted for roughly 65 percent of the Covid total. This comes just a day after Kerala nearly equaled India&#8217;s Covid total with 24,733 cases discovered.</p>
<p>The 24,296 cases reported on Tuesday were the most in a single day since the state recorded 28,798 on May 26. This increase in instances follows days of low testing and detections due to Onam.</p>
<p>Kerala reported 17,106 Covid-19 cases and 83 deaths on Onam day, as markets throughout the state reported crowding ahead of the celebration. The test positivity rate in the state was 17.73 percent. The test positivity percentage increased to 18.04 percent on Tuesday, the highest level in recent weeks.</p>

										<content:encoded><![CDATA[<p>The Central Bureau of Investigation should be an autonomous body reporting only to parliament, the Madras High Court said on Tuesday. Batting for the autonomy and independence of the central agency, which according to the opposition has become a political tool in the hands of the BJP-led Central government, the court said: &#8220;The CBI should have autonomy as that of the Comptroller and Auditor General of India, who is only accountable to Parliament&#8221;.</p>
<p>In its 12-point instructions overhauling the current system, the court said, &#8220;This order is an attempt to release the &#8220;Caged Parrot (CBI)&#8221;.</p>
<p>A &#8220;caged parrot&#8221; was how the Supreme Court had described the agency during a hearing of the Coalfield allocation cases in 2013. That time, the BJP, which was in the opposition, accused the agency of being controlled by the Congress-led government.</p>

<p>Sitharaman said that as of 31 March, 2021, there were Rs 1.31 lakh crore in outstanding principles and Rs 37,340 crore in interest yet to be repaid on these oil bonds.</p>

<p>&#8220;We should have released a white paper in 2014 listing out all that we inherited from the previous government. Oil bonds were a big part of that. The previous govt had reduced to prices but that burden had to be taken by the Oil Marketing Companies (OMCs) through these oil bonds,&#8221; Sitharaman said at a media interaction, on being asked whether the Centre would follow Tamil Nadu&#8217;s example and slash excise duty on fuel.</p>

										<content:encoded><![CDATA[<p><span style="font-weight: 400">Marital rape can be accepted as a ground to grant divorce by recognising it as a form of cruelty, the Kerala High Court has held. </span></p>
<p><span style="font-weight: 400">The Supreme Court had, in 2019, turned down a plea to accept martial rape as a ground for divorce. The high court gave its ruling while hearing an appeal filed by a husband against a divorce granted by a family court in 2014. </span></p>
<p><span style="font-weight: 400">“Treating wife’s body as something owing to husband and committing sexual act against her will is nothing but martial rape. Right to respect for his or her physical and mental integrity encompasses bodily integrity ; any disrespect or violation of bodily integrity is a violation of Individual autonomy…,” the high court said. </span></p>

										<content:encoded><![CDATA[<p><span style="font-weight: 400">On Saturday, Sydney was ordered a shutdown of building sites, banned non-essential retail, and threatened fines for employers who make staff come into the office as new Covid-19 cases kept rising three weeks into a citywide lockdown. </span></p>
<p><span style="font-weight: 400">111 new cases were recorded in 24 hours in the Sydney western suburbs , the worst affected area where thousands of people are banned from leaving the immediate neighbourhood. </span></p>
<p><span style="font-weight: 400">The state also recorded an additional death from the virus , taking the total to three since the start of the year and the national total to 913 since the pandemic began. </span></p>
<p><span style="font-weight: 400"> More than 1,000 people in the city surrounding the district have since tested positive. </span></p>
<p><span style="font-weight: 400">“We are chasing our tail in terms of the cases,” state Chief Health Officer Kerry Chant said at the news conference. </span></p>
