New Delhi:

Prime Minister Narendra Modi is going to meet his Bangladesh counterpart Sheikh Hasina on Saturday in New Delhi. Around six-seven pacts are likely to be inked in areas like transport, connectivity, capacity building and culture when prime ministers meet. Ministry of External Affairs Spokesperson Raveesh Kumar said three projects will be jointly inaugurated by Prime Minister Narendra Modi and his Bangladesh counterpart Sheikh Hasina on Saturday, but did not elaborate further.

Hours after the Bombay High Court dismissed petitions opposing tree-felling in Aarey Colony in north Mumbai, a prime green lung of the city, for Metro work, activists alleged that authorities have started hacking trees. Of over 2,600 trees which are to be felled, about 300 had been cut by Friday night, activists alleged. Videos of tree-felling went viral on social media, though it could not be confirmed from Mumbai Metro Rail Corporation officials if indeed tree cutting for the planned metro car shed in Aarey had begun.

Heading into the third day, the task confronting South Africa was enormous.
