Is it a bubble waiting to burst Upfront: Ab Lamba Karyakal The Union government, on November 14, passed an ordinance to extend the tenures of the directors of the Enforcement Directorate ED and Central Bureau of Investigation CBI up to five years. Both posts had a fixed tenure of two years, irrespective of the retirement age of 60. What will be the implications of this decision Upfront:  Agriculture Asantosh Ki Khad Farmers across the country have been reeling under a shortage of fertilisers, especially diammonium phosphate DAP and urea, both key inputs in the ongoing rabi season.
