Boston College finally unveiled its new uniforms for 2025, ushering in a new era in its football history. The reveal, part of a promotional video released through a series of photos, features a design that honors the past while bringing some touches of modernity.
This is the first football uniform release since the Eagles came under 100 percent full benefit of New Balance, unifying all of the varsity sports teams under one apparel umbrella.
Classic Boston College football uniform design returns with fresh elements
Boston College fans have always favored a little tradition with their maroon and white, and the 2025 uniforms will lean heavily on that style with gold piping accents. You can see one identifiable design change, however, reflecting the shoulder stripes that were not seen in last year's Adidas kits.
These stripes bring a fresh and contemporary look to the design without straying away from the school's tradition-filled past.

Also, one of the solid gold helmets will be worn, a fan favorite, but the clean, stripe-free option. Much more prominent gold detailing on the pants, similar to the uniforms from the Doug Flutie era. It's a time-honored yet modern view of the Eagles as they are ready to get going with a new season.

New Balance football gear deal brings full branding shift for Boston College
This uniform drop is the last step in Boston College's complete transition to New Balance, which has been outfitting all other BC sports since 2021. BC's football program had been with Adidas until this point, but New Balance fully takes hold of football apparel with this deal, meaning BC is the only Power Five school with a football deal exclusive to New Balance, at least through the 2025 season.

Athletic director Blake James pointed to the importance of the partnership because it delivers premium gear while deepening local connections with the Boston-based company. The complete uniform ensemble consists of the jersey, gloves, cleats, and sideline apparel to showcase a style combining tradition and performance-based attributes. For Boston College, this is not a makeover, but rather an overhaul stamped with local pride.

IT employees raise red flag, Karnataka's labour department says no change in weekly hours
Bengaluru: Even as the Karnataka labour department insists that proposed amendments to the Karnataka Shops and Commercial Establishments Act-1961 will not breach the 48-hour weekly cap, the state's tech workforce remains unconvinced. The Karnataka State IT/ITeS Employees Union (KITU), which led a protest in Bengaluru, argued that the proposed amendments would institutionalise excessive workloads. The department, however, claims the changes are intended to provide "flexibility" to employers and employees, allowing them to complete their weekly quota over fewer days. At the centre of the controversy is the department's plan to increase daily working hours from 9 to 10, and the maximum permissible overtime from 50 to 144 hours per quarter. This could allow for up to 12-hour workdays, including overtime. Citing long-standing concerns over unpaid overtime and chronic overwork, many fear the draft amendments will legalise exploitative practices that have become rampant in the IT and ITeS sector. "Even if you cap the week at 48 hours, that still averages to about 9.6 hours over five days. Add the legalised overtime — about 2.5 hours per day — and we're back to 12-hour shifts. And overtime compensation? It doesn't exist in practice," an IT employee said. Employees told TOI that existing loopholes enable companies to demand long hours without paying for them. The fear now is that the amendments will provide a legal cover for what is currently an unspoken but widely followed practice. KITU general secretary Suhas Adiga, who attended a recent stakeholders' meeting organised by the department, pointed out lack of transparency. "We asked for data on how many employees are working overtime and what they're paid. The minister admitted that not a single company responded. There's no data. No accountability," he said. KITU's official stance is that the move will exacerbate health risks, erode work-life balance, and push employees further into burnout. Chitra Banu, KITU member, was unequivocal in her stance. "It won't get implemented; we won't let it happen." Not everyone in the industry opposes the move. Adithya M, who works at a Bengaluru-based startup, said: "I've been working 10–12 hour days anyway. My body and mind are used to it. This isn't a big deal for startup folks." According to union leaders, this is precisely the problem — the new norms are merely catching up with exploitative realities instead of challenging them. "Now that 144 hours of overtime per quarter is legal, we're just putting a rubber stamp on what's been happening illegally," KITU secretary Sooraj Nidiyanga said. The labour department maintains that the changes are aligned with International Labour Organisation (ILO) norms and are part of broader efforts to modernise labour law. But the discontent from the ground tells another story — one of disconnect between legislative intent and lived experience. For now, the IT sector's fears remain unresolved, with trust in short supply and clarity even shorter.

EU price caps on Russian oil will not effect its supply volume: Russian Dy PM
St Petersburg, Jun 19 (UNI) Russian Deputy Prime Minister Alexander Novak on Thursday said that Europe's price caps on Russian oil will have no effect on its volumes of supply, adding that even the zero level of price ceiling will not affect them. Speaking to Business FM on the sidelines of SPIEF (St Petersburg International Economic Forum) 2025, Novak said "I assume that the introduction of the USD 60 ceiling had no influence. This means that even if zero (price ceiling) is introduced it will have no influence," reports Russian state media TASS. Currently, the G7 and EU countries (the price cap coalition) have banned imports of Russian crude oil and oil products, but allowed shipowners from their countries to transport them and provide brokerage and other services if the commodity is sold at a price that is no higher than the cap set by the coalition. The objective of the embargo and price cap is to limit Russian budget revenues from the sale of energy resources while maintaining a sufficient supply of crude and oil products on the world market. European Commission President Ursula von der Leyen confirmed on June 10 that the EC's proposal calls for the reduction of the price cap for Russian oil to USD 45 per barrel as part of the 18th package of sanctions against the country. However, Novak noted that it is not profitable for the European Union itself to lower the price ceiling to USD 45 per barrel. 'Now we supply more to our friendly jurisdictions than previously, though it is not related to the price ceiling, but to sanctions imposed on Russia by the EU, by the US, other unfriendly countries. I even think that it is not profitable for the European Union to lower prices, say, to $45," he explained. Novak added that none of the price ceilings implemented in the last few years have had any effect on Russian oil export.

30 new AC e-buses roll in, Aapli Bus EV fleet to grow to 260
1 2 Nagpur: The city's push towards cleaner and greener public transport is gaining pace, with 30 new air-conditioned electric buses arriving this week under the much-delayed 250 e-bus project sanctioned in 2023 by then deputy chief minister Devendra Fadnavis. These buses will soon be inducted into the Aapli Bus service, increasing the electric vehcile fleet from 230 to 260. The Aapli Bus fleet now comprises a total of 539 buses, including 150 midi buses, 45 mini buses, and 237 standard diesel buses procured under the Jawaharlal Nehru National Urban Renewal Mission (JNNURM). Out of the 230 electric midi buses already in service, 184 are air-conditioned while 46 are non-AC. Many of the 237 standard diesel buses have surpassed their 15-year lifespan. Nagpur Municipal Corporation (NMC) has already begun phasing them out. In the first phase, 123 such ageing buses were scrapped, and more are expected to be replaced gradually as electric buses arrive. In 2023, Fadnavis sanctioned Rs136 crore for the procurement of 250 AC e-buses. However, the project was marred by delays, including the enforcement of the model code of conduct during the Lok Sabha and state assembly elections. by Taboola by Taboola Sponsored Links Sponsored Links Promoted Links Promoted Links You May Like Costco Shoppers Say This Wrinkle Cream Is "Actually Worth It" The Skincare Magazine Undo The Rs550 crore project finally gained traction in 2024 when NMC awarded the contract to Hansa Vahan India Private Limited, which partnered with EKA Mobility for the execution. "NMC twice floated tenders for this project. Hyderabad-based Olectra and Nagpur-based Hansa Vahan India Pvt Ltd emerged as top contenders. Hansa's competitive bid of Rs62.84 per km was significantly lower than Olectra's Rs77.91, leading to the selection of the local firm. NMC issued the Letter of Award on October 11, 2023, and gave the firm 300 days to supply and operate all 250 buses," said a senior transport official. As per the Request for Proposal (RFP), the selected contractor is to operate the 250 air-conditioned electric buses under this scheme at a cost of Rs62.91 per kilometre. The state govt is offering a subsidy of Rs55 lakh per bus, while the remaining cost will be borne by the operator. NMC will pay the operator based on the kilometres operated. The official added that NMC has already received the first lot of 30 e-buses from the company. Construction of depots is underway at Wathoda and Khapri. Meanwhile, the company has been temporarily allotted space at the Matrishakti E-Depot in Lakadganj for setting up a charging station, allowing it to begin operations while permanent infrastructure is developed. In addition, the civic body is expecting the first lot of e-buses next month as part of the 150 sanctioned under the Pradhan Mantri e-Bus Sewa scheme. Besides this, NMC has also sent a proposal to the PMe-Bus Sewa scheme to allocate another 240 e-buses. "By next year, NMC plans to phase out the remaining JNNURM standard buses. By 2029, our target is to convert the entire city fleet to electric, achieving zero emissions in public transport operations," the official said.
