Business Visa is not meant for collecting Funds
Randa Chehab v. Union of India & Others
WP © 1250/2023
Before Delhi High Court
The Writ was dismissed on 18.12.2023 by Hon’ble Mr. Justice Subramonium Prasad J as petitioner failed to establish violation of her right.
The petitioner a US citizen has challenged her deportation (before Delhi High Court) by the Bureau of Immigration from Trivandrum, Kerala Airport on 28.11.2022 as being arbitrary, unreasonable, illegal and unconstitutional.
Notice was issued to the Union of India on 01.02.2023.
Status Report was filed by the Counsel of Union of India.
The Status Report discloses that the Petitioner was issued the following visas by the Consulate General of India, San Francisco, i.e., T-1 Visa No. VK 0275900 valid from 31.03.2017 to 30.03.2027; and B-1 Visa No. VK 3934693 valid from 20.06.2019 to 19.06.2024.
The Petitioner again applied for a tourist visa on 15.12.2022 which was rejected as her name was found in the adverse/banned list entry of the Ministry of Home Affairs.
The Status Report revealed that the name of the Petitioner has been blacklisted at the behest of Foreigners Regional Registration Office (FRRO), Trivandrum as she was involved in public fund collection while visiting on a business visa which is not permitted.
It is stated that as of today there is an adverse entry report against the Petitioner.
General policy guideline to Indian Visa
When a person is granted a business visa, the purpose is to attend business meetings and technical meetings and funds cannot be collected for the said purpose.
Submission of the Counsel of the petitioner
The Petitioner has been involved in charitable activities and is collecting public funds for the purpose of a charity, and this cannot be said to be unlawful.
The Petitioner has rendered yeomen's services when cyclone Amphan in 2020 struck in eastern India and she has since been closely associated with various charitable activities.
In this backdrop, it is not wrong to collect funds.
Petitioner holds a valid tourist visa and as a tourist visa holder, she can be permitted to come to India.
Petitioner has come to India numerous times and the reason for blacklisting is completely arbitrary.
Submission of the Counsel of the State
Section 3 of the Foreigners Act gives the power to the Central Government to make provisions either generally or for all foreigners prohibiting, regulating or restricting the entry of foreigners into India or their departure from India.
Issue
Whether the violation of the conditions of the business visa can be a sufficient reason for deportation and blacklisting of the Petitioner?
Law
Collecting money ostensibly for charitable activity is not permitted when a foreigner comes to India on a business visa.
Since the Petitioner has admittedly acted contrary to what is permitted, the decision taken by the authorities to blacklist the Petitioner cannot be said to arbitrary and as such requiring any interference under Article 226 of the Constitution of India.
Observation of the Court
It is well settled that a Writ Court can exercise its jurisdiction under Article 226 of the Constitution of India only where there is a violation of a right.
In the absence of any right, a writ cannot be issued.
Since the Petitioner has not been able to establish violation of any rights granted to the Petitioner, this Court is not inclined to exercise its jurisdiction under Article 226 of the Constitution of India to interfere with the decision taken by the authorities.
Order
Writ Petition is dismissed.

Elon Musk shuts Twitter India office, asks staff to work from home 
As per reports, the Musk-led social media company has shut two of its three offices in India and the staff have been asked to work from home.
After conducting mass layoffs in 2022, Elon Musk is now shutting Twitter offices. As per reports, the Musk-led social media company has shut two of its three offices in India and the staff have been asked to work from home. Musk had previously fired 90 per cent staff of its roughly 200-plus staff in India. Apart from Delhi, Musk has shut its Twitter office in Mumbai as well.
Tumblr media
That said, Twitter continues to maintain an office in Bengaluru, which is primarily staffed by engineers, the sources reveal. Notably, India isn't the only country where Musk is shutting offices. The billionaire CEO Elon Musk has fired employees and closed offices around the world, indicating that he may be deprioritizing the Indian market for now.
Ever since Musk has fired employees, Twitter is finding it difficult to maintain operations and regulate content. Musk has recently stated that he may need until the end of the year to stabilize the company and ensure its financial health.
Not just the operations affected, Twitter has failed to pay millions of dollars in rent for its San Francisco and London offices, faced lawsuits from multiple contractors over unpaid services, and auctioned off assets such as bird statues and espresso machines to raise funds, after Musk took over the company.
Musk has even hinted at the possibility of Twitter going bankrupt and has cited a "massive drop" in revenue as advertisers flee due to concerns about the platform's ability to filter out undesirable content. Additionally, Twitter has experienced several significant glitches and controversies, with the most recent one occurring earlier this month.
In conclusion, Twitter's Indian office remains operational, but it appears that the company is facing numerous challenges related to financial stability, employee retention, and content regulation. As Musk works to stabilize the company, it remains to be seen how Twitter will fare in the highly competitive Indian market and whether it will be able to overcome its current challenges.

Unlock Your Wanderlust: Cheap Tickets from San Francisco to Delhi Await!
Introduction
Are you a travel enthusiast on the lookout for affordable ways to explore the world? If so, we've got exciting news for you! Traveling from San Francisco to Delhi has never been easier on your wallet. In this article, we will guide you through the process of securing cheap tickets from San Francisco to Delhi, the capital city of India. Delhi is a fascinating destination with its rich history, vibrant culture, and delicious cuisine. Let's embark on a journey to discover how you can make this dream a reality without breaking the bank.
Tumblr media
Timing is Everything
One of the first and most crucial aspects of finding cheap tickets to Delhi from San Francisco is timing. Airlines typically adjust their ticket prices based on various factors, including demand, season, and even time of day. To increase your chances of scoring a great deal, consider the following strategies:
Book well in advance: Tickets tend to be cheaper when purchased several months ahead of your intended travel date.
Be flexible with your travel dates: If you can adjust your schedule, flying on weekdays, especially Tuesdays and Wednesdays, often leads to more affordable fares.
Avoid peak seasons: Traveling during holidays or popular events can significantly increase ticket prices. Aim for off-peak times if possible.
Compare Airlines and Booking Websites
The next step in your quest for a budget-friendly flight is to compare prices across different airlines and booking websites. Websites like Expedia, Skyscanner, Kayak, and Google Flights can help you easily compare and contrast prices from multiple sources. Additionally, don't forget to check individual airline websites, as they sometimes offer exclusive deals and promotions.
Embrace Layovers
Direct flights may be convenient, but they are often more expensive. If you're looking to cut costs, consider flights with layovers. While layovers may add some time to your journey, they can substantially reduce the overall ticket price. Explore different layover options and durations to find the best compromise between budget and travel time.
Subscribe to Fare Alerts
Staying informed is crucial when it comes to finding cheap tickets. Many booking websites and airlines offer fare alerts that notify you of price drops and special deals on your selected routes. By subscribing to these alerts, you can be the first to snatch up discounted tickets to Delhi from San Francisco when they become available.
Leverage Frequent Flyer Programs and Points
Frequent flyer programs and credit card reward points are excellent tools for reducing the cost of your flights. If you're a frequent traveler, consider signing up for a frequent flyer program with an airline that operates flights between San Francisco and Delhi. Additionally, some credit cards offer travel rewards and points that can be redeemed for flights or upgrades.
Use Airline Miles
If you've been saving up airline miles, this is the perfect opportunity to cash them in for a cheap flight to Delhi. Check with your preferred airline's mileage program to see how far your miles can take you and whether you can apply them to your San Francisco to Delhi journey.
Be Open to Nearby Airports
When searching for flights, don't limit yourself to just San Francisco International Airport. Consider nearby airports like Oakland International Airport and San Jose International Airport. Sometimes, flying from these alternate airports can yield more affordable options.
Book Round-Trip Tickets
Round-trip tickets are often more cost-effective than one-way fares. Booking a return flight from San Francisco to Delhi may give you a better overall deal, so be sure to explore both options before making your final decision.
Travel Light and Pack Smart
Many airlines charge additional fees for checked baggage. To save money, pack efficiently and travel with just a carry-on or a personal item whenever possible. This not only helps you cut down on extra costs but also expedites your journey once you land in Delhi.
Stay Updated on Travel Restrictions
With the evolving situation of the world, it's essential to stay informed about travel restrictions and requirements. COVID-19 has significantly impacted international travel, and regulations may change frequently. Make sure to check the latest entry and quarantine guidelines for Delhi before your departure.
Conclusion
Cheap tickets from San Francisco to Delhi can be an affordable adventure if you follow these tips and strategies. With careful planning, flexibility, and a bit of patience, you can secure cheap tickets and make your dream trip to Delhi a reality. Delhi is a city teeming with history, culture, and experiences waiting to be discovered, and now, you can explore it without burning a hole in your pocket. So, pack your bags, set your travel dates, and embark on a journey that will leave you with memories to cherish for a lifetime. Bon voyage!

It was in the early 20th century that Punjabis studying in the universities of Oxford, Cambridge, London and California began to interact with Western thought. The poet Puran Singh (1881-1931) engaged Nietzsche in Punjabi; the great lexicographer Kahan Singh (1861-1938) collaborated with Macauliffe (1837-1913) on the English translation of the Sikh scriptures for his 6-volume magnum opus The Sikh Religion; the Greek and Sanskrit scholar Dharam Anant [Singh] worked on Plato while Santokh Singh (1892-1927) introduced Marx to Punjab.
Bhai Santokh Singh, a Ghadar activist and one of the founders of the communist movement in Punjab, was tried with 29 other Ghadarites in the Indo-German or San Francisco Hindu Conspiracy Case and sentenced to 21 months rigorous imprisonment. In the McNeil’s Island prison, he came in contact with other political inmates, many of them Russian communist exiles, and began to read leftist books, including the three volumes of Capital. After his release, he travelled to the Soviet Union, where he enrolled in the KUTV – University of the Toilers of the East. After returning to Punjab, he started Kirti (The Worker) in 1926, a Punjabi magazine.
In its first issue, dated February 1926, he published a short introductory article on Dialectical and Historical Materialism. The essay was also an important milestone in the development of Punjabi literary and political prose. Prior to this, historical and political texts – even the traditional medicine formulae – were written in poetry. Given the lack of an established Punjabi tradition of economic and philosophical discourse, Santokh Singh relied on Sanskrit for introducing new philosophical terms into Punjabi.
Dwarka Das Library, which shifted from Lahore to Delhi to Chandigarh after Partition, has in its collection the first English edition of Capital (1887). It is a fair conjecture that Bhagat Singh would have accessed it. In his memoir, Yash ki Dharohar (Heritage of Honour, 1988), Bhagwan Das Mahaur, an accomplice of Bhagat Singh, writes that he had read Capital on the suggestion of Bhagat Singh, but could not comprehend it. Bhagat Singh’s Jail Notebooks include quotes from the writings of Marx and Engels.
Makhan Singh (1913-1973) a whole-timer of the CPI during 1939-1947, spent his time in translating some parts of Marx’s Das Kapital into Punjabi in the Gurmukhi script. In 1942, Jagjit Singh Anand, an editor of Jang-e-Azadi, the CPI organ, received Makhan Singh’s Punjabi translation of ‘Dialectical Materialism’, a chapter in Das Kapital. In his memoir, Anand recalled his deep impression of Makhan Singh’s nuanced grasp of Marxist theory as well as his mastery of the Punjabi language. The two men worked on the editorial board of Jang-e-Azadi until 1947, when Makhan Singh left Punjab for Kenya.
The editorial board of Jang-e-Azadi consisted of communist activists and pioneer Punjabi translators of Marxian literature, including Bhag Singh, a PhD in political science from Berkeley University, Teja Singh Sutantar, a legendary political leader and graduate of the University of the Toilers of the East Moscow, Sohan Singh Josh, Makhan Singh, Jagjit Singh Anand, and Randhir Singh.
In May 1937 a collection of articles on capitalism, imperialism and socialism published in Kirti was compiled by Harkishan Singh Surjeet. This 100-page book was titled ‘Purani te Navi Duniya’ (Old & the New World) by Sathi (Comrade) Karl Marx. It was the first Marxian text in Punjabi that was laden with the new terminology of economics and philosophy, not familiar to most Punjabi readers at the time. Most of the newly-coined terms stuck. But a hundred years later, there is still no consensus about certain words and concepts. For instance, the word ‘Capital’ can be translated both as ‘Poonji’ (origin Sanskrit) and ‘Sarmaya’ (origin Persian).
The first authentic Punjabi translation of Capital was published in 1975 by Navyug publishers, Delhi. The three volumes were translated by a team of fulltime employees of the Soviet Embassy’s Information Department. No other book by Marx except The Poverty of Philosophy was translated into Punjabi.
The Communist Manifesto by Marx and Engels was first translated into Punjabi in the Gurmukhi script by Randhir Singh and published in Lahore in 1946. It took over 70 years for its Punjabi version to appear in the Farsi script in Lahore translated by Mushtaq Soofi (Sanjh publications, 2022). A booklet about contemporary Marxism, titled Nirvar (The Analysis) was published by Rashid Uz Zaman in the Farsi script in Lahore in 1970. Unlike the East Punjabi translation, which largely relies on Sanskrit, Zaman’s translation borrows heavily from Arabic and Farsi. This duality of one language with two scripts and two dictions has been a serious bone of contention between academics, linguists and writers on both sides of the divided land of Punjab.
