<p>The Enforcement Directorate has alleged in its supplementary chargesheet filed against BRS leader K Kavitha before a court here that more than ₹1,100 crore ($132.34 million) was laundered in the alleged Delhi excise scam.</p>

<p>According to the ED, out of ₹1,100 crore ($132.34 million), Kavitha was involved in proceeds of crime worth ₹292.8 crore ($35.22 million).</p>

<p>The allegations were made in a supplementary prosecution complaint, ED’s equivalent to a chargesheet, filed before Special Judge Kaveri Beweja, who on Monday extended Kavitha’s judicial custody till July 3.</p>

<p>The judge extended the custody after Kavitha was produced before the court in pursuance of its earlier order issuing a production warrant against her.</p>

<p>The court had issued the warrants after taking cognisance of a chargesheet against the BRS leader in the case on May 29.</p>

<p>The court also granted bail to three co-accused persons Prince, Damodar and Arvind Singh. The three accused were chargesheeted without being arrested during investigation by the ED.</p>

<p>“As per the investigation so far, the total proceeds of crime identified is ₹1,100 crore, out of which PoC of ₹292.8 crore is being dealt with in this Prosecution Complaint. Through activities of the accused persons i.e. Kavitha, Champreet Singh, Prince Kumar, Damodar Sharma and Arvind Singh, huge proceeds of crime have been generated,” the chargesheet alleged.</p>

<p>The chargesheet claimed that Kavitha was involved in PoC of ₹292.8 crore, out of which kickbacks of ₹100 crore were given to Aam Aadmi Party (AAP) leaders.</p>

<p>“Kavitha conspired with the members of the South Group and the AAP leaders through accused Vijay Nair to pay kickbacks to the tune of ₹100 crore ($12.03 million) and receive undue benefits,” the documents claimed.</p>

<p>Kavitha, by paying kickback to the government functionaries through their middleman, has participated in the generation of PoC of ₹100 crore, the charge sheet claimed, adding that she then participated in the transfer of this PoC to the government functionaries.</p>

<p>The ED further claimed that Kavitha, by way of conspiracy and formation of IndoSpirits, a company accused in the case, has participated in the generation, acquisition and use of the PoC of ₹192.8 crore ($23.19 million), which was derived as a result of the conspiracy of kickbacks and payment of kickbacks.</p>

<p>By showing IndoSpirits as a genuine business entity and acquiring the PoC of ₹192.8 crore, she is involved in projecting this PoC as genuine profit from a legitimate business, the ED alleged.</p>

<p>“By way of participating in the conspiracy of formation of IndoSpirits to recoup advance bribes of ₹100 crore paid, Kavitha is knowingly involved in the generation and transfer of PoC of ₹100 crore and the generation, acquisition, and possession of PoC ₹192.8 crore in the guise of profits generated by IndoSpirits during November 2021 to August 2022,” the ED alleged.</p>

<p>Kavitha also received the PoC of ₹5.5 crore ($0.6 mn) from IndoSpirits in the name of her associate and co-accused in the case, Abhishek Boinpally, the federal agency said.</p>

<p>The report further accused Kavitha of destroying the digital evidence to conceal her role and involvement in the case.</p>

<p>“Kavitha has deleted evidence and contents of her mobile phone. She presented nine phones for examination, which were formatted and had no data. She was evasive and couldn't give any explanation for those formatted phones,” the ED alleged.</p>

<p>It further alleged that Kavitha was also involved in acts of influencing the witnesses.</p>

<p>The 46-year-old BRS leader is in judicial custody in the two cases lodged by the ED and the CBI in the alleged scam.</p>

<p>The "scam" pertains to alleged corruption and money laundering in the formulation and implementation of the Delhi government's excise policy for 2021-22 which was later scrapped.</p>

<p>The ED arrested Kavitha from her Banjara Hills residence in Hyderabad on March 15. The CBI arrested her from Tihar jail.</p>

<p>Oxford Economics on Tuesday (May 21) cam out with&nbsp;its inaugural Global Cities Index, a ‘comprehensive evaluation’ of the world’s 1,000 major cities, spanning 163 different countries.</p>

<h2><strong>Performance of cities across India&nbsp;</strong></h2>

<p>Delhi is ranked the best among Indian cities in the Oxford Economics Global Cities Index. The national capital, however, ranks 350th on the global list.&nbsp;</p>

<p>According to the economic forecaster’s report, Delhi fared better than Mumbai on several parameters, including economics, human capital, and quality of life.&nbsp;</p>

<p>However, considering factors such as livability and attractiveness of a city, which can act as a fulcrum in migration patterns, Kochi and Thrissur have outperformed major Indian cities like Mumbai, Delhi and Bengaluru.&nbsp;</p>

<p>Major Indian cities performed particularly poorly when ranked on the basis of quality of life. Mumbai, the financial capital of India, ranked 915, while the national capital, Delhi, secured the 838th position.&nbsp;</p>

<p>Bengaluru, known as the IT hub, was rated at 847, while Hyderabad was placed lower at 882. &nbsp;</p>

<p><strong>Also read:&nbsp;<a href="https://www.wionews.com/india-news/covid-in-india-tamil-nadu-health-official-says-no-need-for-any-panic-724396">Covid in India: Tamil Nadu health official says no need for any panic</a>&nbsp;</strong></p>

<p>Under the ‘quality of life’ parameter, the benefits of living in each city and residents’ well-being, financial and health outcomes, as well as access to amenities are measured.&nbsp;</p>

<p>Meanwhile, cities like Kochi and Thrissur have fared better than the major cities of India in this bracket. Kochi stood at 765 in the ranking while Thrissur in Kerala was at 757.&nbsp;</p>

<p>Delhi was worse in the environment ranking, at 973, while Uttar Pradesh’s Sultanpur performed the worst, and was ranked 989 in this category. All the Indian cities ranked 380 in governance.&nbsp;</p>

<p>However, the Indian city of Sultanpur ranked the lowest in the world, at the 1,000th spot.&nbsp;</p>

<h2><strong>Performance of cities across the world&nbsp;&nbsp;</strong></h2>

<p>The Oxford Index has ranked New York at the top of the list, followed by London, San Jose, Tokyo and Japan. The first 50 places of the index were dominated by cities in the US and Europe.&nbsp;</p>

<p>Across the 1,000 cities, those in North America, Western Europe and Oceania generally performed best, scoring highly across all brackets.&nbsp;</p>

<p>Australian cities also fared remarkably, with Melbourne in ninth place, Sydney in the 16th spot and Perth in 23rd.&nbsp;</p>

<p><strong>Also read:&nbsp;<a href="https://www.wionews.com/india-news/delhi-water-crisis-aaps-atishi-accuses-bjp-of-stopping-yamuna-flow-hatching-water-conspiracy-724363">Delhi water crisis: AAP’s Atishi accuses BJP of stopping Yamuna flow, hatching ‘water conspiracy’</a>&nbsp;</strong></p>

<p>"Our Global Cities Index provides a consistent framework for assessing the strengths and weaknesses of the largest 1,000 cities across the world, and when coupled with our forecasts, it enables organisations and policymakers to make more informed strategic decisions," said Mark Britton, director of city services at Oxford Economics, based in Oxford, England.&nbsp;</p>

<p>New York City "has the largest economy of any city in the world by far," Oxford Economics said, along with having stable growth, allowing it to dominate the economics category.&nbsp;</p>

<p>London took first place in the human capital category because of its wealth of top universities and global corporate headquarters, as per the report.&nbsp;</p>

<p>Meanwhile, Grenoble, France, offers the best quality of life due to&nbsp;income equality and the number of cultural offerings per capita.&nbsp;</p>

<h2><strong>Forecast for the coming years</strong></h2>

<p>Looking ahead to the coming years, the index claims that there are several global trends that have the potential to disrupt these rankings.&nbsp;</p>

<p>As per the report, facets such as uneven economic outlook across regions and lingering inflationary concerns could negatively impact the economics score of many locations.&nbsp;</p>

<p>Along similar lines, debt sustainability continues to be far-fetched for many developing countries following the COVID-19 pandemic, while a period of heightened interest rates further threatens the economies of cities.&nbsp;</p>

<h2><strong>How are the scores calculated?&nbsp;&nbsp;</strong></h2>

<p>The Oxford Economics Global Cities Index provides a holistic assessment of the largest cities in the world and a direct comparison among them on a range of metrics.&nbsp;</p>

<p>The economic forecaster crunched the numbers for 27 indicators across five categories to draw out the rankings.&nbsp;</p>

<p>The five broad categories are economics, human capital, quality of life, environment, and governance.<br />
The report evaluates cities across given categories with differing weightage. The overall city ranking is determined by economics (30%), human capital (25%), quality of life (25%), environment (10%), and governance (10%).&nbsp;</p>

<p>"After we collected data for each indicator for all cities, we created a normalised score for each indicator by assigning the highest-scoring city a score of 100 for that indicator, the lowest-scoring city a score of 0, and distributing the rest of the cities’ scores across that range. We combined the scores for each indicator within a category to create a total score for that category for each city. We then normalised the total score for each category, and calculated the city’s final overall score by taking a weighted average of each category’s normalised score," said the report.&nbsp;</p>

<p>In New Delhi and the rest of northern India, you may find several outlets serving 'Chhole Bhature' that&nbsp;live up to their delicious reputation to the point that you may "kill for them". But an alleged killer on the run took this figure of speech quite literally. He opened a Chhole Bhature outlet to escape the consequences of an alleged murder he committed, and dodged police for 20 years, according to reports.&nbsp;</p>

<p>The accused has been identified as Sipahi Lal.&nbsp;</p>

<p>After allegedly committing the murder of a businessman, the person changed his name to live in Uttar Pradesh's Mainpuri, where he sold Chhole Bhature.</p>
