    In a recent development, the Delhi Police have plastered nails on the streets and dug ditches across main roads in New Delhi in a bid to prevent protesting farmers from entering the capital, as the finance minister delivered the government's annual budget in Parliament today.
    Internet and messaging services were blocked in several neighbourhoods on the outskirts where protests turned violent last week during the Republic Day, and security was stepped up around Parliament and other important government offices in the central district.
    WATCH: A small report from Tikri Border. Roads dug up, big boulders put and now big nails plastered on streets to stop farmers and tractors from entering the national capital.

    β€” Prashant Kumar (@scribe_prashant) February 1, 2021"The government has increased security to avoid any clash or violence when parliament is in session," said a senior official who didn't wish to be named in line with official policy.
    "The idea is to keep everyone safe and avoid any escalation in tensions."
    Here’s how people reacted to this on Twitter:
    Very very shame to be indian under this anti Indian modi govt.

    On January 26, a farmers' procession turned violent, as some protesters broke away from a rally of tractors to storm into the historic Red Fort complex after breaking through barricades and clashing with police.

    In the past few days, more farmers have arrived in the capital along with their tractors to join their protesting colleagues at the three major protest sites near New Delhi.
    The Delhi police have also adapted new armours after the farmers’ rally turned violent on Republic Day. To defend themselves, the police have been offered what seem to be metal gloves and a special metal lathi with armour around the grip extending to the palms of their hands.
    This comes in days after the police were attacked by weapon yielding goons who tried to disguise themselves as farmers participating in the rally, resulting in injuries for a few cops. Hopefully, the new armour will help protect the police from such attacks, but only time will tell how effective the new gear is.
    Tell us about your thoughts on these latest developments in the space below.

    At the time of lockdown, we had noticed far few sightings of celebrities on the street. But as time passed and things gradually moved to normalcy, we started spotting the B-towners again as they were slowly seen resuming work.

    That said, Sidharth Malhotra, besides showing us ways to look fashionable at home, courtesy his Instagram feed, has also made several appearances, most of which managed to steal our focus. From wearing the most expensive backpack to the airport to flaunting his humongous shoes, Malhotra was dressed superbly even in trying times.

    Coming to the recent event, Sidharth was once again seen wearing zany sneakers that even we would like to invest in. If you are curious to see what the pair looks like, take a quick glance at it below.

    Onitsuka Tiger as a brand has become quite popular among celebrities. After Tiger Shroff, many celebrities are seen donning pairs from the brand. The one that Sidharth is wearing is called Mexico 66 Slip-on shoe. These sneakers are not the usual sneakers as they come without laces. Add to that, these sneakers add to the comfort level and have a newer design element for example ankle reinforcement and the heel flap.

    These low-top sneakers cost almost Rs 6,182. Fun fact: these aren't actually worn-out but Sidharth has intentionally kept them unclean. Probably he was trying to ace the dirty sneaker trend here. If he was, he championed it and we are totally digging this look now.

    As for the other details of his outfit, we also like the flamboyance of his bright yellow jacket, by Adidas. This style comes with a mock collar and has two side pockets with long sleeves and straight hems. As for the cost, this one costs Rs 7,000. It's also perfect for the breezy weather in Mumbai. We like the way he has paired the jacket with black cargo pants. The dirty sneakers seem to be a good idea here.

    This, in all, proves that the trend of dirty sneakers is going nowhere and Sidharth, with his style moves, would continue to make it look good.

    Smartphones are going to get even more expensive in India from this year after finance minister Nirmala Sitharaman presented the annual budget in Parliament today. The country will be introducing import duties on mobile parts to encourage local manufacturing which will go into effect from April 2021.Β

    β€œDomestic electronic manufacturing has grown rapidly. We are now exporting items like mobiles and chargers. For greater domestic value addition, we are withdrawing a few exemptions on parts of chargers and sub-parts of mobiles. Further, some parts of mobiles will move from β€˜nil’ rate to a moderate 2.5%” the finance minister said.Β

    The new import duties will be levied on parts such as camera modules, PCBs (printed circuit boards), connectors amongst others from April onwards. The government will also be imposing an increased tax on importing of parts for chargers. While the government is going to be increasing taxes on chargers that are bundled with smartphones, many companies like Apple, Xiaomi and Samsung have opted to not bundle a charger in the box of its latest smartphones.

    Having said that, most new smartphones have adopted the PD charging protocol which means it will be easier for customers to switch to third-party chargers from companies like AMX, Anker, Stuffcool amongst others. However, the duty hike might have been imposed for a similar reason i.e. encourage manufacturing for chargers in India. It is worth pointing out some of these components were exempt from import duties prior to the annual budget change made today.Β 

    Needless to say, prices of smartphones are bound to increase as other key components will still attract the higher import duty. However, India has seen a surge in local manufacturers that supply some of these components to smartphone OEM companies. The Finance Minister also said that the country will be investing Rs 1.97 lakh crores over the next five years to boost manufacturing via the Production Linked Incentive (PLI) scheme.

    The budget for 2021 is live now and we know now the kind of financial changes our country will implement to recuperate from the pandemic that left a massive dent in the economy. Without getting too much into detail, in this story, we just wanted to highlight that we might have to pay more for smartphones going forward.
    That's right, the smartphone prices are about to increase in India so if you are planning to buy one then we suggest you do it as soon as possible because the Union Budget 2021 has made the decision to remove the exemption on some parts of chargers and smartphones. This has done in order to promote the β€˜Make-In-India’ movement.

    The finance minister revealed the same during her budget speech where she mentioned that they're withdrawing a few exemptions on parts and chargers with some parts of smartphones. The elimination of exemption would affect specific parts used inside a smartphone like the Printed Circuit Board Assembly (PCBA), Camera module, and connectors.

    The center is also cutting the basic customs duty rate on nylon chips and nylon fiber. There's also a plan to increase customs duty on parts of mobile chargers from nil to 10 percent.
    All this is definitely going to make smartphones more expensive than they already are in India in comparison to some other countries. This is indeed a bummer because smartphones are more useful than ever now with the necessity of staying connected during these tough times.

    We're not entirely sure as to how much of an impact this will have on the smartphone prices, but we'll definitely learn more about it soon as we're just getting started with the smartphone launches. In addition to smartphones, it looks like other electronic appliances like refrigerators and air conditioners are also expected to get more expensive.

    Again, we don't know have much info about the new prices, but we'll keep an eye out for them and revert with more info. In the meantime, if you are looking to buy a new smartphone, then here are some good options to check out.
