Mamata asks PM to send UN peacekeepers

Speaking on the floor of the state legislative assembly, Banerjee urged Narendra Modi's government to intervene in the escalating situation. "If required, let an international peacekeeping force be sent to Bangladesh after talking to the [interim] government there to help them restore normalcy," she said.

The chief minister criticised the central government's silence on the matter, noting they had been "remaining mum for the past 10 days." She suggested that India's minister of external affairs should make a statement in Parliament, which is currently in session.

Save as...: How women invest

There is certainly a difference. The choices women make when it comes to investments are generally considered too timid, too conservative, too risk-averse. What's interesting, though, is that the aims of women are also the aims of all cautious investors with a lot to lose. The challenges they face - interrupted careers, unsteady income arcs - are shared by millions around the world (think, gig workers, caregivers, entrepreneurs). Could a shift in how the world of finance views such lives benefit us all?
