# India–Sri Lanka HVDC Interconnection

The India – Sri Lanka HVDC Grid Interconnection is a proposed project to link the national grids of India and Sri Lanka. The project involves the construction of a high-voltage direct current (HDVC) connection between Madurai in southern India, and Anuradhapura in central Sri Lanka, through the Palk Strait. The link would measure 285 kilometres (177 mi) in length, including 50 kilometres (31 mi) of submarine cables, and would take more than three years to construct. It would be implemented by the Power Grid Corporation of India Limited and Ceylon Electricity Board.
India's grid is connected to Bangladesh, Bhutan, and Nepal. This project will link Sri Lanka with the rest of the South Asian grid.
Having been contemplated since 1970, the project has four implementation alternatives in consideration:
* Madurai–Anuradhapura
* Thoothukudi–Puttalam
* Madurai–Puttalam
* Madurai–Anuradhapura (with back-to-back HVDC)
The connection will be developed in two phases, of which the first phase, scheduled to complete in the near-future, would enable the transmission of 500 MW between the two countries. The second phase would enable a 1,000 MW transmission capacity, the target capacity.
It is expected to reach a total development cost of approximately US$800,000,000. Such a connection between the two countries would enable the nations to sell excess energy, thus saving valuable resources.
In February 2016, Damitha Kumarasinghe, Director general of Public Utilities Commission of Sri Lanka, announced that pre-feasibility studies on the project had been completed.
Additionally, the National Renewable Energy Laboratory in collaboration with Ceylon Electricity Board completed an operational analysis of the HVDC connection for one year of operations.
But due to the ongoing 2019 economic crisis in Sri Lanka, the already planned 55 km under sea cable HVDC link is redesigned to be constructed as a over sea cable HVDC link, and the project is planned to be completed within 2030 from Madurai to Anuradhapura with the help of the World Bank.

# West Dinajpur district

West Dinajpur (Pron: ˈpoʃtʃim dinad͡ʒpur), or sometimes Paschim Dinajpur, is a former district in the Indian state of West Bengal, headquartered in Balurghat. On 1 April 1992, the district was bifurcated into two separate districts namely Uttar Dinajpur and Dakshin Dinajpur.

## History

Undivided Dinajpur district was part of the Pundra and Gauda Kingdom of ancient Bengal. The whole of Pundra was part of the Maurya Empire, and Jainism was spread in the region in the fourth century BCE. Their capital was at Pundrabardhan (now in Bangladesh), and two other ancient towns were Gourpur and Kotibarsha, now called Bangarh. Later multiple inscriptions show how the Guptas also controlled Pundra. After the reign of Gauda Kingdom, the district was then ruled by Pala Empire from 750 CE. The Senas overthrew the Palas in 1143. In 1204, Muhammad bin Bakhtiyar Khalji defeated the Senas and had Bangarh as its capital. After his murder, it was controlled by various governors sent by the Delhi Sultan from Gauda. In 1586, Mughal Emperor Akbar conquered Bengal and Dinajpur was controlled by the sarkars of Tajpur and Panjara. In 1765, it fell under the rule of the East India Company and was ruled from Murshidabad. In the later part of the 18th century, the district was home to the Sanyasi-Fakir rebellion until the early 19th century. At the time of India's independence, the former Dinajpur district of undivided Bengal was partitioned along religious lines, and West Dinajpur became one of the 14 districts of West Bengal. The other part of the district continues as Dinajpur district of Bangladesh.
With the States Reorganisation Act of 1956, some Bengali-speaking areas from Bihar were added to this district. On 1 April 1992, the West Dinajpur district was divided into Uttar Dinajpur district and Dakshin Dinajpur district.

# Kensington Market, London

Kensington Market was a three-story indoor market at 49/53 Kensington High Street, in the Kensington area of London, England. It opened in 1967.
In the 1960s and 1970s, it catered to hippie and bohemian culture. From the 1980s to the end of the 1990s, it catered to punks, new romantics, metal heads, ravers, and goths, as well as other sub-cultures of contemporary music, fashion, hair stylists, body arts, and crafts and accessories.
In 1969, before the band Queen had formed, Roger Taylor ran a stall at the market, also enlisting Freddie Mercury to work on it. In a 2006 interview, Lemmy, the founder of Motörhead, stated he sold dope at the market during the 1960's.
Hyper Hyper was a unit that provided stall space for many new designers, including Fiona Cartledge (Sign of the Times), Pam Hogg, Rachel Auburn and Leigh Bowery, before moving to its own premises across the road in October 1996.
The market finally closed on 29 January 2000. The building was left derelict following its closure, and was demolished in 2001.
# Lucky: How Joe Biden Barely Won the Presidency

Lucky: How Joe Biden Barely Won the Presidency is a non-fiction book by Jonathan Allen and Amie Parnes, journalists for NBC News and The Hill, respectively. The book is about Joe Biden's successful campaign in the 2020 United States presidential election. Allen and Parnes had previously written Shattered: Inside Hillary Clinton's Doomed Campaign, a book about Hillary Clinton's unsuccessful campaign in the 2016 United States presidential election.

## Content

Lucky describes how, according to Allen and Parnes, Joe Biden "barely won the presidency". They describe conflicting ideas among Biden's campaign staff about political strategy, rhetoric, and policy. The book covers the campaign's response to matters such as the COVID-19 pandemic and ongoing racial unrest. The Biden campaign's navigation of the COVID-19 pandemic is given as one major reason for electoral success. It examines interactions between key Democratic Party figures and the campaign, such as Barack Obama, Hillary Clinton and Andrew Cuomo.

## Reception

Lucky never made The New York Times Best Seller list and sold 10,000 copies, far fewer than the 125,000 copies sold of Shattered.
