(GRSE), a Defence Public Sector Undertaking under the Ministry of Defence, announced on August 1 that it has signed a non-binding Memorandum of Understanding (MoU) with Reintjes GmbH, a renowned German company specializing in the design and manufacture of marine propulsion gearboxes.
The collaboration aims to integrate Reintjes GmbH's high-quality propulsion gear trains with selected engines on ships built by GRSE. This partnership is expected to support both domestic and export shipbuilding programs, including warships for defence forces and commercial vessels.
In its press release, GRSE highlighted that the association would contribute to achieving higher standards of propulsion efficacy, adding to its legacy of engineering excellence. Reintjes GmbH, known for pioneering marine gearbox technology, will play a strategic role in enhancing GRSE's offerings.

Top Trump aide accuses India of financing Russia's war in Ukraine
Stephen Miller on Fox News: Trump said, 'It is not acceptable for India to continue financing this war by purchasing the oil from Russia.' WASHINGTON – A top aide to President Donald Trump accused India of effectively financing Russia's war in Ukraine by purchasing oil from Moscow, after the U.S. leader escalated pressure on New Delhi to stop buying Russian oil, in a Fox News interview that aired on Aug. 3. More: President Trump announces 25% tariff on imports from India "What he (Trump) said very clearly is that it is not acceptable for India to continue financing this war by purchasing the oil from Russia," said Stephen Miller, deputy chief of staff at the White House and one of Trump's most influential aides. More: Russia does not care about Trump's 'theatrical ultimatum', senior official says Miller's criticism was among the strongest yet by the Trump administration about one of the United States' major partners in the Indo-Pacific. "People will be shocked to learn that India is basically tied with China in purchasing Russian oil. That's an astonishing fact," Miller said on Fox News' "Sunday Morning Futures." The Indian Embassy in Washington did not immediately respond to a request for comment. Indian government sources told Reuters on Aug. 2 that New Delhi will keep purchasing oil from Moscow despite U.S. threats. More: Trump says he ordered 2 nuclear subs to 'appropriate regions' after Russia nuclear threats A 25% tariff on Indian products went into effect on Aug. 1 as a result of its purchase of military equipment and energy from Russia. Trump has also threatened 100% tariffs on U.S. imports from countries that buy Russian oil unless Moscow reaches a major peace deal with Ukraine. Miller tempered his criticism by noting Trump's relationship with Indian Prime Minister Narendra Modi, which he described as "tremendous."

140-year-old college, forced to close after Chapter 7 bankruptcy
Bacone College, a 140-year-old Native-serving institution in Oklahoma, has been shut down and ordered into Chapter 7 liquidation after a judge cited mismanagement and financial collapse. The school had filed for Chapter 11 bankruptcy in 2024, but now faces total closure. Many colleges have a deep history and connection to their community, but Bacone's ran deeper than most. Bacone College, formerly the Indian University, "was founded in 1880 to educate Indian Students," according to its website. The school played a very important role in its early years. "At the height of Indian Removal the Muscogee (Creek) Nation donated land to eh American Baptist Church and namely the American Baptist Home Mission Societies (ABHMS) to establish Bacone College," it continued. Bacone Collegel gave a current mission statement on its website. "As a historic American Indian-serving institution, Bacone College provides a quality, holistic, liberal arts, educational experience for students in a culturally diverse environment, empowering life-long learners with the knowledge, skills, and capacity to be transformational leaders in both Native and non-native communities," it shared. Things began to fall apart for Bacone around a year ago. "On June 27, 2024, the Higher Learning Commission (HLC) acted to withdraw the accreditation of Bacone College in Muskogee, Oklahoma," the school shared on its website. Bacone College filed for Chapter 11 bankruptcy around when it lost its accreditation. The school has remained open for existing students, but has not been taking new admissions. U.S. bankruptcy trustee Ilene Lashinsky, filed a motion in June citing "gross mismanagement" including a disputed payment of approximately $16,500 on a loan in Acting President Leslie Hannah's name, alleging that the funds had been misused. In the filing,. Lashinsky asked for the Chapter 11 bankruptcy to be converted into a Chapter 7 bankruptcy filing. "The U.S. Trustee submits that the appropriate action in this instance is conversionto a Chapter 7 case. This case is stagnant and the Debtor's only hope is that an investor may come in and purchase the real estate assets of the Debtor. This is the best option for creditors to get paid. And a Chapter 7 trustee is fully capable of managing and negotiating that transaction on behalf of Debtor's estate," the filing read. In May, a federal judge agreed that the case be converted to a Chapter 7 case, citing "gross mismanagement' by college officials, one of whom the trustee alleged used the institution's bank account to pay his personal expenses. In late May, Bacone College was ordered to turn over access to the campus so it can be liquidated. All educational operations ended at that time. Bacone has been failing for some time: In fall 2023, Bacone had just 106 students, less than half the number of just five years earlier and a fraction of the 1,184 students the college enrolled in 2010, according to date from sought tribal college status, which would have made it eligible for additional federal funding. The Osage Nation and Cheyenne, Arapaho, Kiowa and Otoe-Missouria tribes agreed to charter it, but the college never won tribal college status from the federal government. June 2024: Bacone College in Muskogee, Oklahoma filed for Chapter 11 bankruptcy, seeking to reorganize and continue operations while addressing mounting debts June 2025: A U.S. bankruptcy trustee, Ilene Lashinsky, filed a motion citing "gross mismanagement"-including a disputed payment of approximately $16,500 on a loan in Acting President Leslie Hannah's name with allegations of misuse of college funds Mid‑May 2025: A federal judge granted the trustee's motion and converted the case from Chapter 11 (reorganization) to Chapter 7 (liquidation), triggering a managed wind‑down of the college's 21, 2025: Bacone College was ordered to turn over all keys and physical control of the campus immediately to the bankruptcy trustee-effectively ending any remaining institutional operations Related: Popular shoe brand files Chapter 7 bankruptcy, liquidating The Arena Media Brands, LLC THESTREET is a registered trademark of TheStreet, Inc.

ED arrests Ex-Axis Mutual Fund chief dealer Viresh Joshi in over Rs 200 crore front-running case
By Aditya Bhagchandani Published on August 3, 2025, 16:58 IST In a major crackdown on the Axis Mutual Fund front-running scandal, the Enforcement Directorate (ED) has arrested Viresh Gangaram Joshi, the former Chief Dealer of Axis Mutual Fund, under the Prevention of Money Laundering Act (PMLA), 2002. The arrest took place on August 2, 2025, and Joshi has been remanded to ED custody until August 8 for further investigation. The ED conducted search operations on August 1 and 2 across multiple locations including Delhi, Mumbai, Gurugram, Ludhiana, Ahmedabad, Bhavnagar, Bhuj, and Kolkata. These operations stem from an FIR filed by Mumbai Police in December 2024, which alleged that Joshi and others used confidential information about Axis Mutual Fund trades between 2018 and 2021 to execute personal trades ahead of client orders—a practice known as front-running. The investigation has uncovered that Joshi used a trading terminal in Dubai and multiple mule trading accounts to carry out these illicit trades. Several traders and brokers are also under the scanner for exploiting advance trade inputs to generate illegal profits. So far, the ED has identified proceeds of crime worth over Rs 200 crore, a figure that may increase as the probe progresses. As part of the operation, the ED has frozen assets—including shares, mutual fund holdings, and bank balances—worth Rs 17.4 crore. The proceeds were allegedly routed through shell companies and bank accounts linked to the accused and their family members. The ED emphasised that front-running erodes investor trust and undermines market integrity. Axis Mutual Fund currently manages assets worth over Rs 2 lakh crore.
