LIBYAN DICTATOR GADDAFI KILLED IN A GUN BATTLE
Former Libyan leader Muammar Gaddafi died of wounds suffered in his capture near his hometown of Sirte today, a senior NTC military official said. National Transitional Council official Abdel Majid Mlegta told Reuters earlier that Gaddafi was captured and wounded in both legs at dawn as he tried to flee in a convoy which NATO warplanes attacked. "He was also hit in his head," the official said. "There was a lot of firing against his group and he died." There was no independent confirmation of his remarks. read more |

| EXPERT VIEWS |
|
"Inflation remains way above what is considered as the comfort level. In that situation it becomes absolutely essential for the Central bank to act. The primary responsibility of the country's Central bank is to tame inflation."
C Rangarajan,
Chairman, Prime Minister's Economic Advisory Council
"Highly subsidised foodgrains under the proposed food security law should be given only to the 'really needy people' and the government should have a relook at prices of ration supplies. Many have shared apprehensions with me on providing cereals at Re 1 per kg (under the Act). If the government buys jowar at Rs 30 and sell cereals at Re 1 per kg, I think it will affect the country's economy."
Sharad Pawar
Agriculture Minister
"Just as in the year 2008, we showed to the world that we can swim against the wind blowing from abroad, it is still possible for India to maintain a healthy growth rate of about 8 to 8.5% (2011-12) despite the adversity of the international environment."
Manmohan Singh
Prime Minister, India
