For the very latest let me draw in correspondent alon a youve shes based in mumbai welcome donna tell us what the latest situation is unlike in india for the kind of people who are coming out on the streets and protesting despite a ban in place. Of well there are nationwide protests all over the country the protests in mumbai and the rate that closed behind it wasnt protests in each city and theyre ok and people there all those kinds of citizens from all walks of life just this doctor teaching was everybody is basically you know up to the on the inputs to shoot thats been banned in statesmanship not which are not by going to spend session that the g. O. P. By the bands eat in states like to eat that actually got the british where it is really by the egypt today on the friday slips march on the streets of india to protest want the poison discrimination of muslims all over the country. And what did it tell us about the way the government is dealing with these protests as well as the anger among the people who are opposed to this contentious lol. Well there is anger amongst people who are unhappy with the waste stream but it is just being dealt with with out into the real it is true with the guys which is being played out students without a new location now especially in states ruled by the ruling government that there is there is tension as the government something opportunities that are out there there are massive tensions happening in every city so there is a goal against not just incidents of Amendment Bill but an extension counter to the in Mumbai National the Financial Capital of the country to this im going to the street this seems to be that theyve been blamed against more of these apart and in the same old the last 6 you know it just seems to be the Tipping Point and this is being led by white bust and sort of gross if you think this is close to a Tipping Point or a Tipping Point do you see any signs that the gov let me rethink this legislation will make changes to it. I think this point of time it does not look like the government is going to take that its a sick decision because the home minister ahmed shah has made this a prestige issue and that also theyre also planning to was not the majority didnt build as the opposition controlled but in the next weeks in the Indian Parliament so it does not look like the government is in a mood to. Do this but need another protest as well across the country are they just because bobby the time now coming forward this kind of stance that if the when the student groups and tensions escalate in the next couple of days raju magennis based in mumbai thank you very much for talking to us and. Thank you. British filmmakers that use you voted by mr johnsons plan to take the u. K. Out of the European Union on january 31st now given johnsons decisive election victory last week the bill is widely expected to pass johnsons need a few changes to the would join agreement heres a look at some of the key points. After becoming Prime Minister Boris Johnson successfully lobbied for changes to the Withdrawal Agreement laying out the towns for britains departure from the European Union but parliament held up final passage prompting early elections which gave johnsons prove that conservatives a solid majority. The divorce deal settles the divisions of assets and liabilities it also guarantees the rights of e. U. Citizens living in britain and yuki said to send any you countries and finally sets out the future for the vexed irish border di lemma that proved to be the main Sticking Point in negotiations how to handle trade along the Northern Ireland border between the u. K. And each member ireland the proposed backstop arrangement was removed in favor of a solution whereby Northern Ireland will maintain Free Movement of goods across the border avoiding a hard border with customs post was seen as essential for protecting peace in Northern Ireland under the good friday agreement but the future trading relationship between the u. K. And e. U. Remains to be hammered out after britain leaves the block on january 31st 2020 it will adhere to either you rules during a transition period until the end of the year that means the risk of a new deal hard braggs it remains britain and the e. U. Cannot agree and new trade deal by the end of 2020 e. U. Diplomats one thats a process that normally takes several years. And earlier Prime Minister by chance in open the debate in parliament once again jamming up support for his banks a deal to cause a tide that together as one reinvigorated nation one United Kingdom filled with a renewed confidence in our National Destiny and determined at last to take advantage of the opportunities the now lies before us and the whole purpose over our Withdrawal Agreement is to set this in motion and avoid any further delay. And you have these big masses outside parliament on a rainy day in london following the crucial vote which is due to take place there today big and weve been here a few times which is today the day when Boris Johnson will get through this legislation through parliament. Well indeed emerita if we quickly rewind weve seen huge wrangles over breakfast and bottom and basically trying to steer the governments hands and taking control of the whole braggs of process all this is now in the past because Boris Johnson has returned to parliament with a huge majority and we really do expect his deal to sail through smoothly today johnson is of course saying this is an exciting new chapter for britain whereas the opposition is still against it but a much diminished opposition so Jeremy Corbyn the leader of the Main Opposition Party labor has said that this is a battering ram for more deregulation and also paving the way for a toxic trade deal with donald trump so we still have these 2 competing views on breaks it and the breaks it deal but its just for us johnson who will have the upper hand to day thats as much as we can expect and the original text for the breadth of bill as we mentioned has been altered since johnson ones majority last week how these changes being received there being it. Well indeed so the changes most importantly extend to the transition period thats the period after britain least the e. U. Where everything more or less stays the same thats until the end of next year Boris Johnson wants to put it into law that it cannot be extended many people many experts on trade say that its just not enough time to just less than a year is not enough time to hammer out all these new agreements because what is being voted on now is just the exit from the European Union but the whole future relationship. Possible trade 3 deals deals on security partnerships in the future all this the government still needs to agree on with the European Union and 11 months is an awfully short period of time but Boris Johnson would just wants to send the signal that he wants to get everything done in a record time and that hes the man to deliver now there are also other changes when it comes to the accountability of the government column and in the past had to say on this so there was an obligation for the government to report back on the government on all these new trade talks but that has been taken out so thats really important thats what many critics in parliament be moaning and also workers rights there is no guarantee that the u. K. Will have the same workers rights as the European Union the government says that will be done in a separate bill but this is whats worrying a lot of critics particularly from the labor party here in the u. K. And he must reporting from outside the parliament in london thank you very much and of course well get back to you as soon as there are new developments.

U. S. Aircraft make a booking has Just Launched its star line a capsule on a test journey to the International Space station the cruellest mission should last 8 days to and from the ais this is successful the spacecraft will free lesson from reliance on russia to travel to the i s s nasa has been forced to rely on russian so youth rockets to transport its astronauts since the Space Shuttle program was shot down in 2011 following 30 years of 7. Person run for more far been smitten science desk joins the father in why is it important for america to be back in the into space. You know of course its a question of selfrespect to some extent being reliant on the russian soyuz spacecraft for its years but moreover its also an economic issue the point is that probably this year were going to see 2 American Space ships that can transport as true north to the eye as has including one being space x. As dragon crew capsule and then this boeing c. S. T. 100 starliner. Which will be able and then in addition to that eventually later in the could not next couple years were also going to see an orion space ship coming up so that there would be 3 american and orion being also partly European Space ships that basically bring the western countries back into space now the latest lift off also has huge implications for booking at the moment doesnt it whats at stake betty. Yeah of course gives a kind of boost to the selfconfidence of boeing for certainly but one also has to consider that the space part of a company like boeing is quite separate from the Airline Industry so the problems that boeing has was a 737 x. Plane is a structural problem and there they have been producing lots of planes. Basically one a day or more than one a day and the issue is getting that system back on track now having success in space doesnt save the Airline Industry and the Airline Industry isnt going to save the space part of the company so really one has to separate them ok you know if star line is 8 d. Journey is success is it possible to imagine that manned space travel will become more common in the near future. Young men space travel certainly is going to be continuing to be important so were going to see the i. S. O. Is probably going to be in operation for quite a while were also talking about going beyond the i. R. S. As probably was orion space capsule but maybe even. Boeing starliner will be able to go there if there will be a lunar station or Something Like that so i think that were going to see in the next couple years plans drawn up for a orbiting last space station from which then men can go back to the morn. And certainly whats going to help the whole thing is that the diversity in space ships that can do the job is going to increase significantly they interesting 5 in smith can be done via science desk thank you.
