Pakistan is terror perpetrator: Kharge calls for Pak's inclusion in FATF grey list

New Delhi, June 5 (UNI) Congress president Mallikarjun Kharge on Thursday called upon the international community to recognise and support India's position on terrorism emanating from Pakistan, asserting that 'victim and perpetrator cannot be equated and should not be hyphenated'. 'Pakistan is the perpetrator of terror. India is a victim of terror. They cannot be equated. They should not be hyphenated,' Kharge said in a post on X. Criticising international financial institutions, Kharge said, "IMF, ADB, and World Bank sanctioning or deciding to sanction loans and bailout packages shall only increase Pakistan's military expenditure, which its rogue Army uses to unleash terror on Indians". Kharge also expressed serious concern over the recent decision to name Pakistan as the vice-chair of the 15-member United Nations Security Council's Counter-Terrorism Committee and to chair the Taliban Sanctions Committee in 2025, calling the move as 'most unfortunate, ill-informed, and unacceptable'. Calling for Pakistan's re-inclusion in the FATF grey list, Kharge said, 'The international community must see merit in India's case that Pakistan should be included back in the FATF grey list for monitoring of its terror financing'. 'It was first included after India's diplomatic efforts, under PM Dr Manmohan Singh in 2008 and then again in 2012. It has been in the Grey List three times, the last being in 2018,' Kharge said. Kharge further added, 'Making Pakistan accountable for its sins is a necessity not just for India, but for the interests of the international community. It is perhaps worth to remind that the most wanted terrorist - Osama Bin Laden responsible for 9/11 was found and eliminated in Pakistan. Khalid Sheikh Mohammed (KSM), the chief of planner of 9/11 was also a Pakistani'. Kharge further stressed that as a responsible Opposition party, the Congress urges the government to take 'appropriate and resolute diplomatic actions to de-hyphenate India and Pakistan on the global stage'.

Kharge slams Pakistan's UNSC roles: ‘Govt must take diplomatic actions to de-hyphenate India, Pakistan on glogal stage'

The Congress on 5 June said Pakistan being named vice chair of the 15-member UN Security Council's counterterrorism committee and chair of another panel of the world body was most unfortunate, ill-informed and unacceptable. In a post on X, Congress president Mallikarjun Kharge urged the Prime Minister Narendra Modi-led government to take resolute diplomatic actions to de-hyphenate India and Pakistan on the global stage, and exhorted the international community to understand and support New Delhi's stand on terrorism emanating from Pakistan. Kharge also described the development as the sad story of 'our own foreign policy collapse' but questioned how the global community can continue to legitimise Pakistan's sponsorship of terrorism. Kharge asserted that making Pakistan accountable for its sins is a necessity not just for India but for the interests of the international community. "The Indian National Congress exhorts the international community to understand and support India's stand on terrorism emanating from Pakistan," he said. Kharge's remarks came after the development that Pakistan will chair the Taliban Sanctions Committee of the UN Security Council for 2025 and will be vice-chair of the Counter-Terrorism Committee of the UN body. "Pakistan is the perpetrator of terror. India is a victim of terror. They cannot be equated. They should not be hyphenated," Kharge said in a post on X. The IMF, the ADB, and the World Bank sanctioning or deciding to sanction loans and bailout packages shall only increase Pakistan's military expenditure, which its rogue Army uses to unleash terror on Indians, he said. "The naming of Pakistan as the vice-chair of the 15-member United Nations Security Council's Counter Terrorism Committee and chair the Taliban Sanctions Committee for 2025 is most unfortunate, ill-informed and unacceptable," Kharge said. The international community must see merit in India's case that Pakistan should be included back in the FATF grey list for monitoring of its terror financing, he asserted. Kharge pointed out that Pakistan was first included in the grey list after India's diplomatic efforts, under then prime minister Manmohan Singh in 2008 and again in 2012. It has been in the Grey List three times, the last being in 2018, he noted. "Making Pakistan accountable for its sins is a necessity not just for India, but for the interests of the international community. It is perhaps worth to remind that the most wanted terrorist - Osama Bin Laden, responsible for 9/11, was found and eliminated in Pakistan. Khalid Sheikh Mohammed (KSM), the chief planner of 9/11, was also a Pakistani," Kharge said. "As a responsible Opposition party, we would urge our government to take appropriate and resolute diplomatic actions to de-hyphenate India and Pakistan on the global stage," he said. Congress' media and publicity department head Pawan Khera said the IMF gave USD 1 billion to Pakistan on May 9 during Operation Sindoor. "World Bank decides to give USD 40 billion to Pakistan soon after Operation Sindoor. ADB gave USD 800 million to Pakistan on June 3, soon after Operation Sindoor," he said on X. And on June 4, Pakistan gets elected as chairman of the UNSC Taliban Sanctions Committee and vice chairman of the UNSC Counter Terrorism Committee, he pointed out. "Of course, this is the sad story of our own foreign policy collapse, but how can the global community allow this continuous legitimisation of sponsorship of terrorism by Pakistan?" Khera said. Pakistan will chair the 1988 Taliban Sanctions Committee that imposes an assets freeze, a travel ban and an arms embargo on individuals, groups, undertakings and entities associated with the Taliban in constituting a threat to the peace, stability and security of Afghanistan. Guyana and Russia will be vice-chairs of the Taliban sanctions committee. Pakistan will also be co-chair of the Informal Working Groups on Documentation and Other Procedural Questions and on the General UNSC Sanctions Issues. Pakistan is a non-permanent member of the 15-nation Security Council for the 2025-26 term. The sanctions committees of the Council comprise all 15 members of the Security Council and make their decisions by consensus. India was chair of the UNSC Counter-terrorism Committee for 2022 during its 2021-22 tenure in the council as a non-permanent member. India has consistently reminded the international community that Pakistan is host to the world's largest number of UN-proscribed terrorists and entities. Al Qaeda leader Osama bin Laden was hiding in Pakistan's Abbottabad for years and was killed in an operation by the US Navy Seals in May 2011. Making Pakistan accountable for its sins is a necessity not just for India, but for the interests of the international community. China, France, Russia, the UK and the US are the five permanent members of the UN Security Council, while Algeria, Denmark, Greece, Guyana, Pakistan, Panama, South Korea, Sierra Leone, Slovenia, and Somalia are currently in the council as non-permanent members.

Madras HC upholds Tamil Nadu's restrictions on real money games

The Madras High Court on Tuesday upheld the Tamil Nadu online gaming authority's restrictions on real money games, including a ban on gameplay between midnight and 5 am, and mandatory Aadhaar verification, rejecting legal challenges by gaming companies. The development follows a February petition where companies challenged regulations that required mandatory KYC verification, Aadhaar authentication and restricted hours of gameplay. These restrictions were imposed under Sections 5(2) and 14(1)(c) of the Tamil Nadu Prohibition of Online Gambling and Regulation of Online Games Act, 2022.A division bench comprising Justices SM Subramaniam and K Rajasekar ruled that the State has the authority to make laws on online gaming under Entry 6 (public health and sanitation) and Entry 26 (trade and commerce within the State) of the State List in the Constitution, which covers matters exclusively under states' jurisdiction. In their arguments, Head Digital Works Pvt. Ltd., which develops online games of skill in India, and two other gaming companies, Junglee Games India Pvt Ltd, and WinZO, insisted that the current restrictions based on time, age and monetary factors are unconstitutional. Code of ethics and regulatory framework In March, ET reported that real money gaming industry bodies All India Gaming Federation (AIGF), E-Gaming Federation (EGF) and Federation of Indian fantasy Sports (FIFS), jointly came up with a 'code of ethics' encouraging responsible gaming practices. The gaming industry bodies include companies such as Dream11, My11Circle, Khelo Fantasy Live, SG11 Fantasy, WinZO, Games24X7, Junglee Games etc. The code of ethics had provisions similar to the curbs placed by the Tamil Nadu the new GST regime, the real-money gaming (RMG) industry faces a 28% GST levy on the deposits made by players on these platforms. Last September, India's top GST investigation agency, the Directorate General of GST Intelligence (DGGI), stated that the real money gaming sector topped the list of tax evasion, with dues to the tune of Rs 1.1 lakh crore. The agency issued show cause notices to 34 entities and took action against 118 Indian and 658 foreign companies. Trends shaping the RMG sector In FY22-23, India's largest RMG platform, Dream11, recorded gross gaming revenue of Rs 7,167 crore. Of this, Rs 976 crore was spent as promotional credits to players. There are close to 568 million users of online games in India, and nearly 25% of them are pay-and-play customers. In fiscal year 2023, the RMG segment in online gaming was estimated to be a $2 billion business. According to the latest EY-FICCI report, Esports and casual gaming grew to Rs 5,300 crore in 2024, and is projected to reach Rs 6,300 crore in 2025 and Rs 8,300 crore in 2026.

Indivior Announces Intention to Cancel Secondary Listing on London Stock Exchange; Primary Listing on Nasdaq to be Maintained

SLOUGH, England and RICHMOND, Va., June 2, 2025 /PRNewswire/ -- Indivior PLC (Nasdaq/LSE: INDV) today announced its intention to cancel: (i) the secondary listing of the Company's Ordinary Shares ("Ordinary Shares") on the Equity Shares (Transition) category of the Official List (the "Official List") of the U.K. Financial Conduct Authority ("FCA"); and (ii) the admission to trading of its Ordinary Shares on the London Stock Exchange's ("LSE") main market for listed securities (together, the "London Delisting"). Background to and Reasons for the London Delisting In the circular published by Indivior on May 3, 2024, the Board noted its intention to maintain the Company's secondary listing in London, "for as long as it is considered to be in the best interests of Indivior and its shareholders as a whole." Following the completion of Indivior's transition to a U.S. primary listing, the Board has kept its listing structure under regular review. As part of such review, the Company has considered, among other things, the liquidity and trading volumes of Ordinary Shares on each of the Nasdaq Stock Market ("Nasdaq") and the LSE, the location of its shareholders, as well as the cost and administrative requirements related to its secondary listing in London. In further consideration of Indivior's listing structure, the Board now believes that the London Delisting will be beneficial for the following reasons: Fully aligns with Indivior's most attractive and valuable opportunity set – U.S. SUBLOCADE; Better reflects the Company's geographic net revenue profile; over 80% of net revenue is generated from the U.S.; Eliminates the cost and complexity of maintaining a secondary listing; Recognizes that liquidity on Nasdaq now far outweighs liquidity on the LSE; as of May 27th, trading on the Nasdaq now accounts for approximately 75% of total trading volume across both exchanges over the last 30 days; Takes account of the location of most holders of Ordinary Shares by value; over 70% are now held by shareholders located in the U.S.; and Permits timing of material news announcements that aligns with the Company's U.S. peer set. Accordingly, the Company hereby gives notice that it has requested that: (i) the FCA cancel the listing of the Ordinary Shares on the Equity Shares (Transition) category of the Official List of the FCA; and (ii) the LSE cancel the admission to trading of the Ordinary Shares on the main market for listed securities of the LSE. David Wheadon, Chair, said: "We are pleased to announce this key milestone for Indivior following our evaluation period. A single primary listing on Nasdaq best reflects the profile of Indivior's business. We appreciate the support received from shareholders for this initiative and look forward to capitalizing on the expected benefits of this move, including reductions in cost and complexity." Process for and principal effects of the London Delisting In accordance with U.K. Listing Rule 21.2.17R, the Company is required to give at least 20 business days' notice of the London Delisting. To further accommodate shareholders of Indivior PLC, the Company is providing approximately 40 business days' notice of the London Delisting. As such, it is intended that the London Delisting will become effective from 8:00 a.m. (U.K. time) on July 25, 2025, such that the last day of trading of the Ordinary Shares on the LSE will be July 24, 2025. Following the London Delisting: (i) it will no longer be possible to trade Ordinary Shares on the LSE; and (ii) the Company will maintain its listing of its Ordinary Shares on Nasdaq. The London Delisting is expected to have no impact for shareholders who are direct holders of Ordinary Shares or who hold their interests in Ordinary Shares through their nominated DTC broker or custodian. Holders of U.K. issued Indivior Depositary Interests ("U.K. DIs") and participants in Indivior's Corporate Sponsored Nominee facility ("CSN") are strongly encouraged to read Appendix 1 to this announcement, which contains further details of the arrangements that will apply to them following the London Delisting and the actions that they may wish to take in advance of the London Delisting (including the steps and actions required to convert their interests into holdings of Ordinary Shares, directly or through a DTC broker or custodian, from which they can be traded directly on Nasdaq). As the Company is assigned to the Equity Shares (Transition) category of the Official List, no shareholder approval is required for the London Delisting. The Company has prepared an FAQ document for shareholders, which is available at Shareholder FAQ. Takeover Code The Takeover Code (the "Code") applies to any company which has its registered office in the U.K., the Channel Islands or the Isle of Man if any of its equity share capital or other transferable securities carrying voting rights are admitted to trading on a U.K. regulated market, a U.K. Multilateral Trading Facility ("MTF"), or a stock exchange in the Channel Islands or the Isle of Man. The Code therefore currently applies to the Company as its Ordinary Shares are admitted to trading on the LSE, which is a U.K. regulated market. The Code also applies to any company which has its registered office in the U.K., the Channel Islands or the Isle of Man if any of its securities were admitted to trading on a U.K. regulated market, a U.K. MTF, or a stock exchange in the Channel Islands or the Isle of Man at any time during the preceding two years. Accordingly, if the London Delisting becomes effective, the Code will continue to apply to the Company for a period of two years after the London Delisting, following which the Code will cease to apply to the Company. While the Code continues to apply to the Company, a mandatory cash offer will be required to be made if either: (a) any person acquires an interest in Ordinary Shares which (taken together with the Ordinary Shares in which the person or any person acting in concert with that person is interested) carry 30% or more of the voting rights of the Company; or (b) any person, together with persons acting in concert with that person, is interested in Ordinary Shares which in the aggregate carry not less than 30% of the voting rights of a Company but does not hold Ordinary Shares carrying more than 50% of such voting rights and such person, or any person acting in concert with that person, acquires an interest in any other Ordinary Shares which increases the percentage of Ordinary Shares carrying voting rights in which that person is interested. Brief details of the Takeover Panel (the "Panel"), and of the protections afforded by the Code, are set out in Appendix 2 to this announcement.

Appendix 1: Additional Details for Holders of U.K. DIs and CSN participants Holders of U.K. DIs and CSN participants are advised to read this Appendix carefully to ensure that they understand the arrangements that will apply to them following the London Delisting and the actions that they may wish to take in advance of the London Delisting. If in doubt as to the action they should take, they are recommended to seek advice from their qualified financial advisor. U.K. DI Holders The Company's existing U.K. DI arrangements will not be impacted by the London Delisting. Accordingly, following the London Delisting, shareholders may continue to hold their interests in Ordinary Shares in the form of U.K. DIs, that is through CREST. However, following the London Delisting it will only be possible to place on market trades in respect of Ordinary Shares on Nasdaq. Consequently, in order to trade their Ordinary Shares following the London Delisting, U.K. DI holders will have to reposition their interests in Ordinary Shares into a DTC broker or custodian account by: (i) cancelling their U.K. DIs through the delivery of a cross-border instruction in respect of the underlying Ordinary Shares through CREST to Computershare Investor Services PLC ("Computershare U.K.", as the issuer of the U.K. DIs) in the form of a CREST stock withdrawal message (CREST system message type: STW); and (ii) instructing Computershare U.K. to deliver their interests in Ordinary Shares into the account of their chosen bank, broker, custodian firm, financial institution and/or other person that is a participant in DTC (a "DTC Participant"). The cancellation of U.K. DIs is subject to a charge, depending on the value of the underlying Ordinary Shares. The minimum cancellation charge is currently $125. For general enquiries, details of the current cancelation charges or for assistance in cancelling U.K. DIs and lodging cross- border instructions, holders, or brokers, of U.K. DIs should contact Computershare U.K. by phone on +44 (0) 370-707-1820 (from inside or outside the U.K.). Lines are open 8:30 a.m. to 5:30 p.m. (U.K. time), Monday to Friday (excluding public holidays in England and Wales). If you hold your U.K. DIs through a broker, custodian or nominee (for example you are an investor through a retail nominee arrangement and are not a CREST participant directly), please contact your broker, custodian or nominee for assistance. U.K. DI holders will be given advance notice if, in the future, the Company decides to discontinue and/or make any amendments to the existing U.K. DI arrangements. CSN Participants The Company's existing CSN arrangements will not be impacted by the London Delisting. Accordingly, following the London Delisting, CSN participants may continue to hold interests in Ordinary Shares through U.K. DIs via the CSN. However, following the London Delisting it will only be possible to place on market trades in respect of Ordinary Shares on Nasdaq. Consequently, when trading through a continuation of the existing service, CSN participants may be exposed to fluctuations in the exchange rate between U.S. dollars (being the currency in which Nasdaq trades are settled) and pounds sterling (being the default currency in which CSN participants will receive sale proceeds). Accordingly, CSN participants may consider taking one of the following actions in advance of the London Delisting. (1) If resident in the United Kingdom, Channel Islands, or Isle of Man, sell their interests in Ordinary Shares through the existing Internet Sale Dealing Service provided by Computershare U.K., with instructions to be submitted by no later than 4:30 p.m. (U.K. time) on July 21, 2025. If resident in a jurisdiction other than the United Kingdom, Channel Islands, or Isle of Man, sell via Computershare U.K.'s Postal Dealing Service, with instructions to be received by Computershare U.K. no later than 5:30 p.m. (U.K. time) on July 18, 2025. (2) Withdraw from the CSN facility and request Computershare U.K. to deliver their U.K. DIs to their nominated broker, custodian or nominee account in CREST, who may either: (i) reposition their interests in Ordinary Shares to a broker or custodian account in DTC; (ii) place a trade on the LSE prior to the London Delisting (as an alternative service to the trading services available through the CSN facility); or (iii) continue to hold their U.K. DIs pending future instructions (in which case they will be treated as other U.K. DI Holders – see section above). (3) Withdraw from the CSN facility and request Computershare U.K. to cancel the underlying U.K. DIs so as to receive their Ordinary Shares directly in certificated form on a share register administered in the U.S. Note: this could expose shareholders to a future U.K. Stamp Duty liability of 1.5% of the value of their Ordinary Shares when the shareholder subsequently decides to trade on Nasdaq. CSN participants will be given advance notice if, in the future, the Company decides to discontinue and/or make any amendments to the existing CSN arrangements. Appendix 2: Additional Details regarding the Code and the Panel The Code is issued and administered by the Panel. The Code currently applies to the Company and, accordingly, shareholders are entitled to the protections afforded by the Code. The Code and the Panel operate principally to ensure that shareholders in an offeree company are treated fairly and are not denied an opportunity to decide on the merits of a takeover and that shareholders in the offeree company of the same class are afforded equivalent treatment by an offeror. The Code also provides an orderly framework within which takeovers are conducted. In addition, it is designed to promote, in conjunction with other regulatory regimes, the integrity of the financial markets. The Code is based upon a number of General Principles, which are essentially statements of standards of commercial behavior. The General Principles apply to takeovers and other matters to which the Code applies. They are applied by the Panel in accordance with their spirit in order to achieve their underlying purpose. In addition to the General Principles, the Code contains a series of rules. Like the General Principles, the rules are to be interpreted to achieve their underlying purpose. Therefore, their spirit must be observed as well as their letter. The Panel may derogate or grant a waiver to a person from the application of a rule in certain circumstances. The following is a summary of key provisions of the Code which apply to transactions to which the Code applies. Equality of treatment General Principle 1 of the Code states that all holders of the securities of an offeree company of the same class must be afforded equivalent treatment. Furthermore, Rule 16.1 requires that, except with the consent of the Panel, special arrangements may not be made with certain shareholders in the offeree company if there are favorable conditions attached which are not being extended to all shareholders. Information to shareholders General Principle 2 requires that the holders of the securities of an offeree company must have sufficient time and information to enable them to reach a properly informed decision on the takeover bid. Consequently, a document setting out full details of an offer must be sent to the offeree company's shareholders. The opinion of the offeree board and independent advice The board of the offeree company is required by Rule 3.1 to obtain competent independent advice as to whether the financial terms of any offer are fair and reasonable and the substance of such advice must be made known to its shareholders. Rule 25.2 requires the board of the offeree company to send to shareholders and persons with information rights its opinion on the offer and its reasons for forming that opinion. That opinion must include the board's views on: (i) the effects of implementation of the offer on all the company's interests, including, specifically, employment; and (ii) the offeror's strategic plans for the offeree company and their likely repercussions on employment and the locations of the offeree company's places of business. The document sent to shareholders must also deal with other matters such as interests and recent dealings in the securities of the offeror and the offeree company by relevant parties and whether the directors of the offeree company intend to accept or reject the offer in respect of their own beneficial shareholdings. Rule 20.1 states that, except in certain circumstances, information and opinions relating to an offer or a party to an offer must be made equally available to all offeree company shareholders and persons with information rights as nearly as possible at the same time and in the same manner. Optionholders and holders of convertible securities or subscription rights Rule 15 provides that when an offer is made and the offeree company has convertible securities, options or subscription rights outstanding, the offeror must make an appropriate offer or proposal to the holders of those securities to ensure their interests are safeguarded.
