Published: Nov 27 2024, 6 ameznews.inA recent study by researchers from the University of Geneva and Toulouse III - Paul Sabatier has revealed discrepancies between Albert Einstein's general relativity predictions and the observed behavior of the Universe, particularly regarding its accelerated expansion. Analyzing data from the Dark Energy Survey, the team found that while Einstein's equations align with cosmic events from 6 to 7 billion years ago, they fall short for more recent epochs, suggesting that gravitational wells are shallower than predicted between 3.5 and 5 billion years ago. The findings, published in *Nature Communications*, spark renewed discussions about the validity of general relativity and our understanding of dark energy and space-time. Camille Bonvin, a lead researcher, emphasized that this study represents a shift in focus from merely mapping matter distribution to directly measuring distortions in time and space, underscoring the complexities of the Universe that still challenge scientific comprehension.
Published: Nov 27 2024, 2 ameznews.inRSS chief Mohan Bhagwat emphasized the significance of India's inherent 'praan shakti' (life force) during an event in New Delhi, linking it to the nation's response to global crises, irrespective of political relations. He argued that this life force remains obscured by 500 years of ingrained 'sanskar' (cultural conditioning) and urged individuals to embrace Indian spiritual practices to uncover both their own and the nation's potential. Bhagwat made a veiled reference to the consecration of the Ram Temple in Ayodhya on January 22 as a manifestation of this life force. The event, held at Delhi University, also marked the launch of the book 'Banayein Jivan Pranvaan,' authored by Mukul Kanitkar, which explores the scientific and philosophical aspects of Bharatiya traditions. Bhagwat asserted that there is no conflict between spirituality and science, advocating for informed belief over blind faith.

Published: Nov 27 2024, 12 ameznews.inThe selection process for Maharashtra's next Chief Minister is progressing without disputes, according to senior BJP sources. While the party's grassroots have long advocated for Devendra Fadnavis to take the helm since 2022, Eknath Shinde was previously appointed due to his key role in forming the alliance government. However, with the BJP holding a significant majority of 132 MLAs, the push for Fadnavis has intensified, despite the Shiv Sena advocating for Shinde's continuation. Sources suggest that Ajit Pawar of the NCP is open to Fadnavis assuming the role. The BJP only needs support from one of its allies to reach the majority threshold of 145 in the 288-member Assembly. Observers will be appointed in the coming days to oversee the selection, followed by a BJP Legislature Party meeting in Mumbai to finalize the leader after consultations with allies. Eknath Shinde resigned earlier today as the Assembly's term concluded.

Tensions flared when Vishvaraj Singh, the newly appointed Maharana of Mewar, was denied entry by his uncle Arvind Singh and cousin Lakshyaraj Singh Mewar.
