Mumbai (Maharashtra) [India], June 12: As artificial intelligence becomes increasingly common in healthcare settings, MediSage AI advocates for clinical intelligence platforms built specifically for the realities of medical practice.

Artificial intelligence is rapidly becoming part of everyday healthcare workflows. From reviewing medical literature and summarising information to supporting education and research, AI tools are increasingly being explored by healthcare professionals across the world.

However, as adoption grows, industry experts are raising an important question: can general-purpose AI systems truly address the complex requirements of clinical medicine?

According to MediSage AI, the future of healthcare technology lies not in adapting general AI tools for medical use, but in developing healthcare-specific platforms designed around the realities of clinical practice.

“Medicine requires a fundamentally different standard from most other industries,” said Anurag Dhingra, Co-Founder & CTO of MediSage AI. “Clinical decisions involve patient safety, evidence-based reasoning, contextual understanding, and professional accountability. These are unique requirements that demand purpose-built solutions.”

While general AI systems have demonstrated impressive capabilities across a broad range of applications, healthcare presents distinct challenges. Physicians routinely evaluate patients with complex medical histories, multiple medications, chronic conditions, and evolving clinical presentations. Supporting these decisions requires access to reliable evidence, awareness of clinical context, and an understanding of medical uncertainty.

Healthcare experts have also highlighted concerns around the use of general-purpose AI in clinical settings. For example, a physician evaluating a diabetic patient with kidney disease, hypertension, and multiple medications requires recommendations that consider all of these factors simultaneously. A generic AI tool may provide a seemingly confident answer but fail to account for drug interactions, contraindications, co-morbidities, or the latest clinical guidelines. In healthcare, even small omissions can have significant consequences. This has reinforced the need for systems that prioritise transparency, evidence quality, clinical relevance, and medical accuracy over broad general-purpose responses.

MediSage AI believes that the next stage of AI development in healthcare will focus on creating ecosystems designed specifically for clinicians. Such platforms may incorporate peer-reviewed medical literature, clinical guidelines, healthcare-specific terminology, and workflows aligned with everyday medical practice.

The company also points to the importance of integrating AI into existing clinical environments. Physicians operate under significant time pressures, making usability and workflow compatibility essential for successful adoption.

Medical education is another area where healthcare-focused AI may provide meaningful value. As medical knowledge continues to expand at an unprecedented rate, clinicians and trainees face increasing challenges in keeping up with new research, evolving treatment recommendations, and updated clinical guidelines. AI-assisted knowledge platforms may help healthcare professionals access relevant information more efficiently while supporting lifelong learning.

MediSage AI further emphasises the importance of developing solutions that reflect the realities of Indian healthcare. Disease patterns, healthcare infrastructure, patient demographics, and treatment pathways can differ significantly from those found in Western healthcare systems, creating a need for locally relevant approaches to clinical technology.

“India’s healthcare environment is unique in both its scale and complexity,” Anurag added. “There is a significant opportunity to build AI systems that better reflect the needs of physicians working across diverse healthcare settings throughout the country.”

At the centre of MediSage AI’s philosophy is the belief that technology should support healthcare professionals rather than replace them. Clinical judgement, patient communication, ethical decision-making, and the trust that exists between doctors and patients remain responsibilities that belong to qualified medical professionals.

The company believes that the most effective future for healthcare AI will be one built around collaboration, where technology helps clinicians access information more efficiently while physicians continue to lead patient care decisions.

As artificial intelligence continues to evolve, the conversation is increasingly shifting from general intelligence to clinical intelligence. Industry observers believe that healthcare-specific AI platforms will play an important role in helping clinicians navigate growing volumes of medical information while maintaining a focus on evidence-based practice and patient-centred care.

For MediSage AI, this transition represents an opportunity to build solutions specifically for healthcare professionals and the environments in which they work. The platform focuses on capabilities that clinicians use in everyday practice, including differential diagnosis support, drug interaction analysis, evidence-based clinical insights, and rapid access to relevant medical literature. Unlike generic AI systems trained to answer questions across countless domains, MediSage AI is designed exclusively for healthcare use cases, enabling greater clinical relevance, contextual accuracy, and alignment with medical decision-making workflows.

“The future of healthcare AI is not simply about building more powerful technology,” said Anurag. “It is about building technology that understands medicine. Physicians need tools that can help evaluate differential diagnoses, identify potential drug interactions, surface relevant evidence, and support clinical decision-making with greater accuracy. Healthcare deserves AI systems built specifically for healthcare, not general-purpose tools adapted after the fact.”

As healthcare systems continue to explore the role of artificial intelligence, MediSage AI aims to contribute to the growing movement toward specialised clinical intelligence solutions built with medicine at their core.

MediSage AI is a healthcare-focused artificial intelligence platform designed to support clinicians through access to relevant medical knowledge, evidence-based resources, and healthcare-specific AI capabilities.

Gurugram (Haryana) [India], June 13:  Positive Mind Care, the best mental health clinic in Gurugram, is proud to announce a historic dual milestone that marks a defining new chapter in accessible, evidence based mental healthcare. As a trusted destination for depression treatment in Gurugram, anxiety treatment in Gurugram, OCD treatment, Addiction Treatment, Parkinson’s care, and a wide range of mental health conditions, the clinic is backed by a world-class team of the best psychologists and psychiatrists in Gurugram available 24×7 to support patients at every step of their healing journey.

This remarkable achievement further strengthens Positive Mind Care’s position as one of the most advanced mental health clinics in India; by bringing together advanced mental health treatments and practical therapeutic support, Positive Mind Care helps patients achieve meaningful recovery in a safe, effective, and compassionate environment.

With a dedicated team of highly experienced psychologists, psychiatrists, and mental health specialists available through its 24×7 support platform, Positive Mind Care continues to redefine how mental healthcare is delivered in India.

Under the visionary leadership of Ms. Sandra Srivastava, CEO of Positive Mind Care, these two milestones reflect the organisation’s unwavering commitment to bringing world-class, non-invasive mental health treatment to every patient who deserves more than conventional approaches.

From Weeks to Days: How Deep TMS Is Changing Lives at Positive Mind Care

For far too long, people struggling with depression, anxiety, or OCD have been told to “give it time” cycling through medications, waiting weeks for therapy to kick in, and often losing hope in the process. Positive Mind Care understands that pain, and that’s exactly why they’ve now adopted the FDA-approved Accelerated Deep TMS protocol already trusted by leading mental health center’s worldwide, and now available right here in Gurugram.

What makes this different? Instead of a six-week treatment stretched over months, this advanced protocol delivers results in a fraction of the time without any medication, without any downtime, and without the side effects that so many patients dread. Using H-Coil technology, Deep TMS reaches deeper areas of the brain that are at the root of depression and anxiety areas that traditional treatments often can’t effectively target. Patients seeking depression treatment in Gurugram, anxiety treatment in Gurugram, or OCD treatment can now experience meaningful, measurable relief in days rather than weeks.

“Mental health treatment in India has long been defined by wait times, stigma, and limited access to cutting-edge science. With the FDA-approved Accelerated Deep TMS protocol, we are bringing the gold standard of global mental health care right here to our patients in Gurugram and across India. Every person who walks through our doors deserves the best — and now, we can deliver exactly that.”

— Sandra Srivastava, CEO, Positive Mind Care

Key advantages of Accelerated Deep TMS at Positive Mind Care include:

• Faster results — multiple sessions per day compress treatment timelines dramatically

• Non-invasive and medication-free — ideal for patients seeking drug-free depression treatment or anxiety treatment in Gurugram

• High remission rates — backed by robust clinical trial data and FDA clearance

• No systemic side effects — Deep TMS targets the brain with precision, without affecting the rest of the body

• Outpatient convenience — patients can resume daily activities immediately after sessions

This milestone makes Positive Mind Care one of a select few mental health clinics in India to offer this advanced protocol setting a new benchmark for psychiatric care in Gurugram and beyond.

Your Daily Dose of Mental Wellness — The Positive Mind Care Wellness Card Set

Alongside this clinical advancement, Positive Mind Care is launching its Wellness Card Set. A beautifully designed, evidence-informed tool that bridges the gap between professional mental health treatment and everyday emotional wellbeing.

Designed by the clinic’s expert team of psychiatrists, psychologists, and mental health counsellors in Gurugram, they’re gentle, practical tools built around real therapeutic frameworks like Cognitive Behavioural Therapy (CBT), mindfulness, emotional regulation, and positive psychology. It is designed for individuals, therapists, families, and corporate wellness programs alike.

Because good mental health isn’t just built in sessions. It’s built in small, everyday moments and now, you have the tools to make every moment count.

The Wellness Card Set is designed to:

•        Empower individuals to practise mental health and stress management skills between therapy sessions

•        Support therapists with structured, evidence-based conversation tools

•        Promote emotional literacy in families, schools, and workplaces

•        Reduce stigma around seeking mental health support in Gurugram and across India

“Healing doesn’t happen only in the clinic — it happens at the kitchen table, in the office, and in quiet moments of self-reflection. Our Wellness Card Set is a way of putting expert clinical wisdom into the hands of everyone, making mental healthcare truly accessible.”

— Sandra Srivastava, CEO, Positive Mind Care

“At Positive Mind Care, our mission has always been rooted in one core belief: that every individual deserves access to compassionate, cutting-edge mental healthcare. These two milestones — the FDA-approved Accelerated Deep TMS protocol and the Wellness Card Set — are a testament to the incredible team we have built and the patients who trust us every single day. We are not just treating conditions; we are restoring hope, rebuilding lives, and reshaping the future of mental health in India.”

— Akhilesh Srivastava, Co-Founder, Positive Mind Care

A Vision That Goes Beyond the Clinic

Since its founding, Positive Mind Care has operated on a single, powerful belief: that mental health treatment must be compassionate, cutting-edge, and accessible to all. The clinic offers a comprehensive range of services including Deep TMS therapy, psychiatry in Gurugram, psychology counselling in Gurugram, OCD treatment in Gurugram, Parkinson’s treatment, anxiety disorder treatment, and holistic wellness programmers all under one roof.

This dual milestone is not just a business achievement it is a statement of intent. In a country where mental health remains critically underfunded and often misunderstood, Positive Mind Care is charting a different path: one defined by science, empathy, and relentless innovation.

With the FDA-approved Accelerated Deep TMS protocol and the Wellness Card Set now in place, the best mental health clinic in Gurugram is well-positioned to serve a broader population — from those battling severe depression or OCD to individuals simply looking to strengthen their emotional resilience and overall mental wellbeing.

About Positive Mind Care

Positive Mind Care is India’s premier mental health clinic, dedicated to transforming lives through evidence-based, compassionate care. Specialising in depression treatment in Gurugram, anxiety treatment in Gurugram, OCD treatment, Parkinson’s care, and advanced Deep TMS treatment in Gurugram, the clinic’s team of the best psychiatrists and psychologists is available 24×7 to provide personalised mental health support. Positive Mind Care is committed to making world-class mental healthcare accessible, stigma-free, and effective for every individual.

From Heartfelt Service to Community Recognition: How One Woman’s Unwavering Dedication is Empowering Lives and Igniting Dreams Across Delhi

New Delhi [India], June 12: In the bustling heart of New Delhi, where countless souls silently battle hardship, Ms. Soneka Chhabra stands as a radiant beacon of pure, selfless love. As the founder of Rooh Foundation (headquartered at E-42, Greater Kailash-1), she has turned her deepest conviction into a living sanctuary of hope. Her journey whispers a timeless truth that touches every heart: true fulfillment is not measured in wealth or accolades, but in the quiet moments when a child’s eyes light up with possibility, a family finds dignity, and a soul discovers it is no longer alone.

Rooh — meaning soul or spirit — is more than a name. It is the very essence of Soneka’s mission: to nurture intrapersonal and interpersonal harmony while serving the less privileged with boundless love and productive compassion.

The Soul of Service: Origins, Mission & Vision

Guided by the vision of “creative intervention for social transformation through effective empowerment and productive compassion,” Rooh Foundation works tirelessly for individual empowerment, family welfare, and holistic community development. Under Soneka’s compassionate leadership, the foundation has become a warm embrace for underprivileged children, struggling families, widows, orphans, the elderly, and the differently-abled.

Key Focus Areas that touch lives every single day:

• Education & Child Welfare: Distributing textbooks and storybooks, organizing joyful learning events, and celebrating birthdays so every child feels seen, valued, and loved — “little angels” in Soneka’s words.
• Family & Community Support: Skill-building programs, ration distributions during Diwali, Holi, and other festivals, and strengthening household resilience with dignity.
• Health, Hygiene & Shelter: Health camps, hygiene drives, and safe shelter for the most vulnerable.
• Disaster Relief & National Integration: Swift response in times of crisis and promoting unity and harmony.

A New Dream Born from Love: The Computer Center for Self-Reliant Futures

Today, Soneka’s heart overflows with an even bigger, more powerful dream — one that could change the destiny of an entire generation.

Her vision is to establish a dedicated Computer Center where underprivileged children can learn essential digital skills in this age of technology. In a world where computers and digital literacy open doors to jobs, entrepreneurship, and lifelong independence, Soneka refuses to let these bright young minds be left behind.

Through this center, children will not only gain computer knowledge but also the confidence and practical skills needed for livelihood and self-reliance. They will move from receiving help to becoming capable, empowered individuals who can support their families and build brighter tomorrows.

This is not just about technology — it is about breaking the cycle of poverty with dignity, giving every child the tools to dream bigger and achieve more. Soneka often says that when a child learns to code, design, or simply navigate the digital world with confidence, an entire family’s future transforms.

This dream is the natural extension of Rooh’s existing focus on digital & financial empowerment — now ready to take powerful, tangible shape.

Impact Stories: Moments That Touch the Soul

Every day at Rooh Foundation, hearts are touched and lives are rewritten. Children beam with joy during Holi celebrations, families receive festive support with tears of gratitude, and students achieve academic milestones — like one beneficiary who cleared her 10th board exams with flying colors.

Volunteers and donors consistently speak of the warm, inclusive atmosphere where every child feels cherished. Soneka’s hands-on presence and heartfelt gratitude to her team create a ripple of love that extends far beyond material aid. These are not just programs — they are soul-to-soul connections that heal and uplift.

Recognition That Matters Most

While formal awards are secondary, Soneka’s work has earned the most precious recognition of all: the love and trust of the communities she serves. Parents, teachers, local leaders, and beneficiaries praise her for creating safe, nurturing spaces filled with genuine care. Her transparent leadership and ability to mobilize resources have made Rooh Foundation a beacon of hope in Delhi’s social sector.

Challenges, Resilience & the Bright Road Ahead

Running an NGO brings real challenges — funding, scaling, and meeting diverse needs. Yet Soneka meets every obstacle with quiet strength and unwavering faith. By focusing on sustainable empowerment through education and skills, Rooh builds lasting change.

Looking ahead, the foundation is expanding shelter programs, deepening educational outreach, enhancing health initiatives, and — most excitingly — bringing the Computer Center dream to life. With growing community support and digital visibility, Rooh is poised to touch thousands more lives.

Join the Movement: Be Part of This Beautiful Story

Soneka Chhabra’s message is simple yet profoundly moving:

Every act of kindness creates ripples that can change the world.

Whether you are an individual with a giving heart or an organization ready to make a real difference, there is a place for you in this journey of compassion.

He currently serves as Executive Director, BRICS Chamber of Commerce & Industry (BRICS CCI); Convenor, ESC Rajasthan Chapter; and Co-Chair, Startup Vertical, Rotary District 3053 (2026–27) roles that together extend his long-standing mission to bring capital, markets, and mentorship to founders beyond India’s metros.

“Every role I take on serves the same mission to give founders from emerging India a real seat at the table,” said Sushil Sharma, Founder & CEO, Marwari Catalysts. “Whether it’s facilitating investment through BRICS CCI, enabling exporters through ESC, or mentoring grassroots entrepreneurs through Rotary, the goal is the same: build entrepreneurs from emerging cities over the next decade and connect them to opportunities across the world.”

His vision remains deliberately ambitious to develop entrepreneurial clusters across Tier-2 and Tier-3 India, link family offices and strategic investors with high-potential ventures, and prove that the next generation of Indian companies will be built far beyond the country’s traditional startup hubs.

ENDOBOT enables robotic inspection to detect defects inside water, sewer, & stormwater pipelines, while HOMOSEP eliminates manual scavenging through mechanized manhole cleaning

Operating at the intersection of public infrastructure and industrial systems, Solinas has emerged as a key player working closely with municipal corporations across multiple states, as well as leading industries. The company focuses on solving critical challenges in underground infrastructure, ranging from manual scavenging, water pipeline leakages, and contamination risks to unsafe sewer systems, areas that are often invisible yet vital to public health and sustainability.

Through its advanced robotics, AI, and digitization solutions, Solinas is enabling cities to reduce non-revenue water, improve service delivery, and make data-driven decisions. At the same time, its solutions are helping industries ensure operational efficiency, regulatory compliance, and infrastructure reliability.

Solinas is among a small cohort of Indian startups — and fewer still from the WASH (Water, Sanitation & Hygiene) sector — to be featured in this publishing ecosystem. The case is now available as a teaching resource for MBA programs and business schools worldwide.

The HBS case study highlights how Solinas is building a scalable and impact-driven business model in a traditionally underserved sector. It explores the company’s approach to navigating complex government ecosystems, establishing credibility in industrial markets, and leveraging technology to create measurable outcomes.

“There is no playbook for building a technology company in the water and sanitation sector. Solinas has been built through constant experimentation and learning. Having studied Harvard Business School case studies during my education, it is incredibly meaningful to now see our journey featured as one,” said Divanshu Kumar, Co-founder & CEO, Solinas.

The case is expected to serve as a global learning resource for students, policymakers, and business leaders, offering insights into innovation, public-private collaboration, and building a startup in critical infrastructure sectors in WASH (Water, Sanitation & Hygiene).

About Solinas Integrity Private Limited
Solinas is a deep-tech startup in the Water, Sanitation, and Hygiene (WASH) sector, incubated at IIT Madras. The company focuses on underground urban water and wastewater infrastructure, developing robotics and AI-led solutions for the inspection, cleaning, digitization, and management of underground networks. Its portfolio includes robotic inspection systems, AI-powered analytics platforms, and the Manhole Cleaning Robot designed to enable safer and mechanized sewer maintenance. These technologies allow cities and utilities to visualize, assess, clean, and manage infrastructure that is otherwise invisible, improving safety, reducing non-revenue water, and eliminating the need for manual scavenging.

Recognized and honoured by Prime Minister Narendra Modi, Solinas partners with urban local bodies, water utilities, and industries to enhance the safety, efficiency, and resilience of critical public infrastructure.

Solinas’ solutions have been deployed across more than 30 cities in India, enabling large-scale inspection, cleaning, and maintenance of underground water and wastewater systems. The company has worked with leading urban utilities and municipal bodies including Chennai Metropolitan Water Supply and Sewerage Board (CMWSSB), Bangalore Water Supply and Sewerage Board (BWSSB), Hyderabad Metropolitan Water Supply and Sewerage Board (HMWSSB), Sangli, Miraj Municipal Corporation, Chhatrapati Sambhajinagar Municipal Corporation, Tripura Jal Board, Greater Chennai Corporation, and Noida Authority. Its technology supports significant reductions in water loss, saving up to 600,000 litres per kilometre of inspection per day while lowering operational costs by up to five times.

Through solutions such as the Manhole Cleaning Robot, ENDOBOT Robotic Crawler, and AI-driven analytics platforms, Solinas enables a proactive, data-driven approach to infrastructure management while advancing worker safety, operational efficiency, and climate resilience.

The company has also expanded internationally, with its ENDOBOT robotic solution deployed with Dubai Municipality, and is now planning to scale its presence across the Middle East.

Solinas aims to further expand its footprint across India and global markets, with a continued focus on enabling safer, more sustainable, and resilient urban infrastructure systems through robotics, AI, and intelligent underground infrastructure management.

New Delhi [India], June 11: This Environment Fortnight is significant in many ways, with events taking place across the country. To mark the occasion, the highly anticipated book Ghosts on Peepal Trees—based on the environmental conservation work of renowned activist Peepal Baba—was launched in Gurugram. The launch took place on the eve of World Environment Day during a tree-planting ceremony where Peepal Baba planted saplings alongside employees from Penguin Publications. Subsequently, on World Environment Day itself, he formally unveiled the book at the Baba Neem Karoli Ashram in Chhatarpur, Delhi, by planting trees amidst the ‘Ashram of Trees’ alongside his volunteers. Since then, the book has been undergoing daily launches at various plantation sites across the country. A target has been set to launch the book at 15 locations over 15 days; so far, 10,700 copies have been purchased. Furthermore, this book is scheduled to be launched during this Environment Fortnight amidst the forests being created by Peepal Baba at locations such as Sorkha (Noida-115), Maincha (Greater Noida), Rahimabad (Lucknow), Khatauli, Meerut Cantt, Barmer, Pune, Karma Lakeland, and others.

The book weaves together themes of the environment, spirituality, and human emotion. It is not merely a story about trees but an exploration of the profound bond between humanity and nature that has existed for centuries. Through his life experiences, memories, and reflections, Peepal Baba demonstrates that the Peepal tree is not just a natural entity but a symbol of energy, consciousness, and spirituality. The author presents the special significance of this tree in Indian culture from a modern perspective. The book not only raises awareness about environmental conservation among readers but also inspires them to experience a deep connection—both within themselves and with the natural world.

Faith is the seed of every movement. It begins with a quiet voice—a desire to do something good—and eventually grows into a forest as others come to share that same sentiment. Peepal Baba reveals that the idea for this book first came to him in 2012. It took over a decade to find the time and peace of mind to bring this to fruition; along this journey—and following a road accident in November 2024—conversations with senior executives at Penguin Books paved the way for the creation of this book.

It took a long time to process the memories and experiences of the past. Reflecting on those days, Peepal Baba shares, “After working at the grassroots level for nearly five decades—restoring greenery across 270,000 hectares and planting 25 million trees and an equal number of shrubs—I believe that even if the change I brought about is small, I made the effort. That is what matters. The stories in Ghosts on Peepal Trees (In the Shade of the Peepal) are not merely tales; they embody an Indian mindset deeply rooted in our culture, scriptures, mythology, and memories. Certain beliefs have evolved into institutions—sacred and inviolable—becoming part of our collective DNA. The Peepal tree has drawn me to itself since childhood. I have dedicated forty-eight years to planting, protecting, and promoting this vital species. This book is my way of sharing that enduring bond—a relationship that has been bittersweet and sacred alike.”

See the world as it truly is: How can caring for plants serve the nation? During Environment Fortnight, Peepal Baba’s acclaimed book Ghosts on Peepal Trees has become a favorite among readers.

Peepal Baba recounts that it was thanks to his grandmother that he had the opportunity to explore the forests of Uttarakhand—places like Corbett, Rajaji, Haridwar, Rishikesh, Narendra Nagar, Tehri, Uttarkashi, Nainital, and Almora. Mysterious, miraculous, and vibrant—this is a story of dedication. I simply want to show how easy it is to love greenery and biodiversity, and how important it is to take small, beautiful steps. I have always written for myself; I loved reading my diary and revisiting old memories.

Our small family moved to Dalhousie in Himachal Pradesh. Even decades later—even during the pandemic lockdown—I could not bear to stay confined within four walls. I would water the plants, feel the sun on my back, and converse with the wind as if it were an old friend. Nature did not create us for confinement; it created the open sky and called that home. Cambrian Hall School became my first real classroom. Before that, I had studied for a year each in Kolkata, Dalhousie, and Chandigarh—quite a challenging educational journey for a young boy.

My maternal grandmother had come to assist my mother at the time of my birth, but in reality, she had come to take charge of our household. After living in Dalhousie, Kolkata, and Dehradun, she eventually moved to Allahabad to live with her youngest son. From my birth until my graduation (1966–1986), I lived with her continuously. That patch of land taught me my first lessons about the environment. For more information you can visit https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Peepal_Baba

New Delhi [India], June 11: The Young Climate Champions Programme continued to grow its impact this year, reaching a wider network of climate-conscious youth across the country

As sustainability and environmental responsibility become central to conversations around India’s future, the youth are increasingly emerging as a powerful force in the country’s climate movement. With the world’s largest youth population and an average age of just 29 years, India is uniquely positioned to create a generation of climate-conscious citizens capable of driving meaningful change while contributing to the country’s economic growth and development.

Recognising this potential, the 13th edition of the Earth Care Awards expanded the Young Climate Champions Programme into its second edition after the encouraging response to its inaugural year. The programme engages with young minds through specially designed workshops conducted across colleges in India. Its core objective is to identify and recognise innovative climate solutions that can be implemented and replicated to create a positive impact on the environment and local communities.

This year, the initiative expanded significantly in scale and outreach, growing bigger than ever before. The movement reached across 25 states and three Union Territories, engaging more than 250 educational institutions nationwide. Through college connect initiatives, organisers worked to spread awareness about sustainability challenges and motivate students to participate in the Earth Care Awards.

Some of the esteemed institutions that were part of the initiative included Delhi Technical University, Delhi; St. Xavier’s College of Arts and Science, Kozhikode; NIT, Kozhikode; IIT, Gandhinagar; TISS, Guwahati; The National College, Bengaluru; IIT, Roorkee; Hansraj College, Delhi; IIT-BHU; IIT-Guwahati; IIM-Kozhikode; IIM-Udaipur; IIT-Delhi; St. Xavier’s College, Ranchi; Symbiosis College of Arts and Commerce, Pune, and many more. 

The response this year reflected the growing interest among India’s youth in sustainability and environmental leadership. The jury received applications from 750 students and 250 institutions from across the country, highlighting the increasing participation of educational institutions in climate-focused initiatives.

The awards recognised contributions across six key categories. These included Air Quality Improvement and Pollution Control, Biodiversity and Ecosystem Restoration, Clean and Renewable Energy Solutions, Environmental Education and Public Engagement, Sustainable Waste Management and Circular Economy, and Water Stewardship and Resource Management.

Earth Day Network India was the outreach partner for the programme.

At a time when climate concerns are becoming increasingly urgent, the Young Climate Champions Programme is positioning India’s youth not merely as participants in sustainability efforts, but as future leaders capable of shaping a greener and more resilient future.

The climate is changing, and the evidence is impossible to ignore — in our weather patterns, our forests, our oceans, and in the difficult choices’ humanity is being forced to make. Yet, amid this crisis, there is hope. Across cities, villages, campuses and communities, ordinary people are stepping forward. Young women and men are not waiting for change; they are becoming the force driving it.

Sangita Jindal, Chairperson, JSW Foundation

Climate change is a reality that must be tackled through ideas, action and collaboration. Even Mumbai, due to its unique vulnerabilities as a dense coastal megacity faces rising sea levels, extreme rainfall, flooding and heat stress. Through the Mumbai Climate Action Plan, BMC is investing in climate-resilient infrastructure, sewage treatment, flood mitigation, green public transport, air-quality monitoring and renewable energy. But building a climate-resilient Mumbai requires collective responsibility from the government, institutions, businesses and citizens alike.

Nellore (Andhra Pradesh) [India]: Dr. B. Narasimha Reedy has spent decades serving Nellore and nearby communities, quietly making a difference through affordable healthcare and genuine kindness. For over forty years, he’s treated people from all walks of life in his modest clinic in Stonehouse Pet, Nellore — with patients coming in from as far as Tirupati, Chittoor, and Kadapa.

Born April 1, 1951, in Kavuru, Nellore district, Dr. Reedy grew up in a lower-middle-class family. As a child, he dreamed of joining the Indian military to care for veterans. That dream ended when he was diagnosed with flat feet, a condition that kept him out of military service. But he didn’t let that stop him from becoming a doctor. Instead, he set up his practice in Nellore in 1977 and found his own way to serve.

Right from the start, Dr. Reedy stood out. His consultation fee? Just three rupees in those early years, so even people with very little money could see a doctor. Over time, costs rose, but he kept his fees low—today, it’s still about 100 rupees. Most of what he earns goes straight back into running the clinic and paying his nurses.

People come to him after trying their luck at bigger hospitals, hoping for a doctor who actually listens and explains things simply. His reputation has spread entirely by word of mouth. Patients trust him — not just for his skills, but for the way he treats them, not as numbers, but as people.

Dr. Reedy lives simply, just as he practices medicine. He prefers walking to work and keeps to buses and trains for any travel. He’s part of the daily life of Nellore — everyone from local shopkeepers to auto drivers knows him, not just as a doctor, but as a neighbor.

His sense of service goes well beyond medicine. He’s quietly helped with temple projects, like supporting solar power generation at the Ayyappa Swamy Temple and funding construction for other temples across Andhra Pradesh.

People who work with Dr. Reedy stick around for years. He treats his staff like family—helping with school fees, medical bills, and even wedding costs when they need it.

Life’s thrown him his own set of challenges. In 1991, doctors found he had a serious heart problem, pericardial effusion, and the surgery to fix it didn’t go as well as everyone hoped. Despite a tough diagnosis and a shorter life expectancy, Dr. Reedy just kept going. He stuck to his simple routine, leaned on his spiritual faith, and kept serving his patients year after year.

Since 1995, he’s been a devoted follower of Ayyappa Swamy. He’s up before dawn, keeps his 40-day Vrutham each year, and regularly makes the pilgrimage to Sabarimala, along with visits to the Shirdi Sai Baba Temple and Tirumala. Discipline, meditation, and faith are all part of what keeps him going.

Even during the chaos of COVID-19, Dr. Reedy stayed at his clinic, helping whoever came to his door. People traveled in just to get his advice and care, at a time when trustworthy medical help was hard to find.

In the end, Dr. Reedy’s story isn’t about wealth or prestige. It’s about simple, stubborn dedication: keeping healthcare within reach, treating people with respect, and standing by his patients and his community no matter what. The people of Nellore see him as more than just a doctor. They see him as a steady hand, a trusted friend, someone whose life is proof that real change can happen quietly — one patient, one family, one day at a time.

Ahmedabad (Gujarat) [India], June 11:  On the occasion of World Environment Day 2026, Marengo CIMS Hospital in association with Angadan Charitable Trust successfully organized the “Save Water – Save Kidney – Save Environment” Dialysis Patient Awareness & Engagement Program on 4th June 2026 at R.K. Royal Hall, Science City Road, Sola, Ahmedabad at 4:00 PM.The initiative highlighted the important connection between kidney health, environmental sustainability, water conservation, and organ donation awareness.

During the program, experts emphasized that dialysis remains a life-saving and essential treatment for thousands of patients with kidney failure. At the same time, they highlighted that for medically suitable patients, kidney transplantation can offer improved long-term quality of life while also helping reduce the environmental burden associated with repeated dialysis procedures.

As part of the event, Chief Guest Shri C. R. Patil, Union Minister of Jal Shakti Govt. of India  and Guest of Honour Shri Dilip Deshmukh Founder, Angdaan Charitable Trust addressed the gathering and shared valuable insights on environmental conservation, public health responsibility, and community participation in sustainable healthcare initiatives.

A major highlight of the event was the felicitation of dialysis warriors, kidney transplant recipients, and cadaver donor families in recognition of their courage, resilience, and life-saving contributions towards society.

Speaking on the occasion, Dr Mayur Patil, Consultant Nephrologist, Marengo CIMS Hospital, Ahmedabad, said, “Dialysis is an essential and life-saving therapy for patients with chronic kidney failure. However, for medically eligible patients, kidney transplantation can offer better long-term outcomes, improved quality of life and greater independence with reduced hospital dependency.

Dr Siddharth Mavani, Director – Nephrology & Kidney Transplant, Marengo CIMS Hospital, Ahmedabad, added,“Along with transforming patient lives, successful kidney transplantation may also help reduce the long term environmental impact associated with ongoing dialysis care, including repeated water usage and biomedical waste generation. Increasing awareness about organ donation is therefore important for both healthcare and sustainability.

Mayur Dave, Facility Director, Marengo CIMS Hospital, Ahmedabad, added, “This initiative reflected our commitment towards connecting healthcare awareness with environmental responsibility. Through prevention, organ donation awareness, sustainable healthcare practices, and community participation, we can collectively work towards a healthier future for both people and the planet.

The initiative also emphasized preventive nephrology through awareness on hydration, diabetes control, blood pressure management, early kidney screening, and healthy lifestyle practices.

The inaugural championship brought together 522 athletes from 79 countries across multiple Yogasana disciplines and age categories. Organised by Yogasana Bharat in association with World Yogasana and the Indian Olympic Association, the event marked the largest international competitive platform for Yogasana so far.

Galgotias University students made India proud at the World Yogasana Championship 2026 with five Gold Medals across Traditional, Supine, Artistic Pair, and Group events

India finished at the top of the medal tally with 114 medals, including 102 Gold Medals.

Representing India, first-year students from Galgotias University won medals across artistic, traditional, and individual categories.

Ritu Mondal, a first-year BA Economics student, secured Gold Medals in Traditional Individual and Traditional Group categories. Riya, a first-year BA English student, won Gold in the Supine Individual event in the Senior Category. Deepa Lodhi, a first-year BA English student competing in the Junior Category, secured Gold Medals in Artistic Pair and Artistic Group.

The championship featured competitions in traditional yogasana, artistic single, artistic pair, artistic group, rhythmic pair, and specialised flexibility and balance events.

Dr Dhruv Galgotia, CEO, Galgotias University, said, “Competing at a championship that brought together athletes from 79 countries demands a very different level of preparation, consistency, and discipline. Securing five Gold Medals against international competition is a significant achievement for our students and for Indian Yogasana.”

Deepa Lodhi said, “The scale of the championship was very different from anything I had experienced earlier. Competing against international participants helped me understand the level of preparation required at the global stage.”

Riya said, “The competition environment was extremely demanding because every category had strong international participation. Winning here has given me confidence to prepare for bigger championships ahead.”

Ritu Mondal said, “The event showed how rapidly Yogasana is growing internationally. For us as athletes, it was an opportunity to represent India in a discipline that originated here.”

The achievement adds to Galgotias University’s growing presence on international stages across sports, innovation, entrepreneurship, technology, and global academic competitions, where students are increasingly competing alongside participants from leading institutions and countries worldwide.

New Delhi [India], June 10: The digital revolution has transformed the way people consume knowledge. Complex subjects that once required access to libraries, universities, or specialist communities can now be explored through podcasts, long-form video discussions, and digital learning platforms. This shift has created new opportunities for the study of India’s epic traditions, particularly the Mahabharata.

Yet this transformation has also produced a challenge.

As mythology content becomes increasingly popular, discussions often prioritize speed over depth, certainty over inquiry, and entertainment over evidence. Complex literary traditions are frequently reduced to simplified narratives designed for short-form consumption.

Against this backdrop, a new generation of research-driven platforms is emerging. Among them is GrahRahasya Decoded, founded by Mahabharata researcher Varun Gupta.

Unlike many mythology channels that focus primarily on retelling familiar stories, GrahRahasya Decoded has developed a distinct identity centered on evidence, textual analysis, comparative traditions, and long-form discussion.

Its goal is not merely to narrate the Mahabharata.

Its goal is to investigate it.

The Rise of Long-Form Mahabharata Discussions

The Mahabharata is often described as the world’s longest epic.

Containing hundreds of characters, multiple philosophical traditions, political debates, ethical dilemmas, military campaigns, and literary layers accumulated across centuries, it cannot easily be compressed into short explanations.

Many of the epic’s most important questions resist simple answers:

●Was Karna primarily a tragic hero or a participant in adharma? 

●What role did Krishna play in shaping the outcome of the war? 

●How should Bhishma’s silence in the dice hall be interpreted? 

●What do different traditions say about Virat Yuddha? 

●How do regional retellings reshape familiar narratives? 

These questions require time.

They require context.

They require sources.

Recognizing this reality, GrahRahasya Decoded has embraced long-form discussions as its primary format.

Rather than reducing complex debates to a few minutes, episodes often explore subjects in significant depth, allowing evidence, counterarguments, and alternative interpretations to be examined carefully.

Moving Beyond Mythology Entertainment

One of the defining characteristics of the platform is its distinction between mythology entertainment and research-driven discussion.

Entertainment content serves an important purpose. It introduces audiences to epic narratives and keeps cultural traditions alive.

However, research requires a different approach.

For Gupta, the starting point of any serious discussion is not opinion but evidence.

This evidence may come from:

●Primary texts 

●Critical editions 

●Classical Sanskrit literature 

●Regional traditions 

●Comparative sources 

●Historical commentary 

●Literary analysis 

Instead of asking, “What do people commonly believe?”

The platform often asks:

“What do the sources actually say?”

This seemingly simple shift changes the nature of the conversation.

Building a Brand Around Evidence

In a digital environment where sensational claims frequently attract attention, building a brand around evidence presents unique challenges.

Evidence is slower.

Research is more demanding.

Nuance often attracts fewer clicks than certainty.

Yet GrahRahasya Decoded has chosen precisely this path.

The platform’s broader philosophy can be summarized through a principle that appears repeatedly across its content:

Facts before conclusions.

Rather than beginning with predetermined narratives, discussions typically begin with textual evidence and proceed from there.

This approach has helped establish the platform’s identity within a growing community of viewers interested in serious engagement with the Mahabharata.

Karna as a Case Study

Among all subjects discussed on the channel, Karna occupies a particularly important position.

Few Mahabharata characters generate more disagreement.

Some readers view him as the epic’s greatest tragic hero.

Others emphasize his alliance with Duryodhana.

Still others focus on questions of social exclusion, loyalty, gratitude, and personal destiny.

Instead of promoting a single interpretation, GrahRahasya Decoded frequently examines how different traditions understand Karna.

Topics explored include:

●The Krishna-Karna dialogue 

●The Kavacha-Kundala episode 

●Kunti’s meeting with Karna 

●Karna’s military campaigns 

●Virat Yuddha 

●Ghatotkacha’s death 

●Day 17 of Kurukshetra 

●Comparative traditions surrounding Karna’s downfall 

By examining multiple perspectives, the platform encourages audiences to engage with complexity rather than ideological certainty.

Bringing Comparative Mahabharata Studies to Public Audiences

One of the most distinctive contributions of GrahRahasya Decoded is its emphasis on comparative Mahabharata studies.

Most audiences encounter only one version of the epic.

Comparative research reveals that multiple traditions coexist.

These traditions include:

●Sanskrit recensions 

●Regional retellings 

●Classical dramas 

●Vernacular adaptations 

●Folk narratives 

●International Mahabharata traditions 

Each preserves unique insights.

Each highlights different aspects of the story.

According to Gupta, understanding these variations is essential for appreciating the richness of India’s epic heritage.

The platform therefore treats differences not as problems to be eliminated but as opportunities for deeper understanding.

Field Research and Cultural Geography

Another distinguishing feature of GrahRahasya Decoded is its willingness to move beyond the studio.

The Mahabharata is not merely a literary text.

It is also a living cultural landscape.

Across India, numerous locations remain associated with events, characters, and traditions connected to the epic.

Field visits and on-location discussions help connect textual narratives with cultural memory.

These explorations provide audiences with a broader understanding of how the Mahabharata continues to shape regional identities and local traditions.

By combining textual analysis with field engagement, the platform creates a more holistic approach to epic studies.

The Importance of Research Ethics

An increasingly important issue in digital knowledge ecosystems is research ethics.

The speed of online communication often encourages the spread of unsupported claims.

Quotes are misattributed.

Narratives are simplified.

Secondary interpretations are presented as primary evidence.

Gupta argues that researchers have a responsibility to maintain transparency regarding sources and methodology.

This commitment is reflected in the platform’s emphasis on:

●Source identification 

●Comparative analysis 

●Documentation 

●Verification 

●Open discussion 

The objective is not merely accuracy.

It is intellectual honesty.

Podcasting as Public Scholarship

Historically, scholarship and public communication often existed in separate worlds.

Academic research remained confined to specialist audiences.

Public discussions frequently lacked scholarly depth.

Podcasting has begun to bridge this divide.

Long-form audio and video formats allow researchers to present sophisticated ideas without sacrificing accessibility.

GrahRahasya Decoded represents part of this emerging movement.

The platform demonstrates that rigorous discussion can coexist with broad public engagement.

Complex subjects need not remain inaccessible.

At the same time, accessibility need not require oversimplification.

The Future of Mahabharata Podcasting

Interest in the Mahabharata continues to expand both within India and internationally.

As audiences seek deeper engagement, demand for research-driven content is likely to grow.

This creates opportunities for platforms capable of combining scholarship, storytelling, and digital communication.

According to Gupta, the future of Mahabharata studies will depend not only on academic institutions but also on independent researchers, creators, and educators who can make complex material accessible to wider audiences.

The challenge is maintaining rigor while expanding reach.

The opportunity is enormous.

Conclusion

In an age dominated by short-form content and rapid consumption, GrahRahasya Decoded represents a different model.

It is a platform built around questions rather than slogans.

Evidence rather than assumptions.

Inquiry rather than certainty.

Through podcasts, comparative studies, field discussions, and source-based investigations, Varun Gupta is helping create a new space for serious engagement with one of humanity’s greatest literary traditions.

As the Mahabharata continues to inspire new generations of readers and listeners, research-driven platforms such as GrahRahasya Decoded are demonstrating that intellectual depth and public accessibility need not be opposing goals.

Indeed, they may be strongest when they work together.

New Delhi [India], June 10: Delhi-based author, speaker, and self-leadership coach Malini S has made her literary debut with The Power to Pause, a heartfelt and reflective book that encourages readers to slow down, reconnect with themselves, and navigate life with greater emotional clarity. Originally from Andhra Pradesh, Malini works as an Identity, Self-Worth, and Self-Leadership Coach, helping women build confidence, self-trust, and inner strength through her coaching platform.

With a background in management and a strong passion for emotional well-being and personal growth, Malini has dedicated her work to supporting women in rediscovering their sense of identity and self-worth. Through coaching sessions, workshops, and motivational talks, she continues to guide individuals toward greater self-awareness and emotional resilience.

For Malini, publishing The Power to Pause is far more than simply becoming an author. She describes the experience as deeply emotional and meaningful, as the book reflects her own journey of growth, healing, and self-discovery. According to her, the book gives voice to emotions and struggles that many women silently experience while appearing strong on the outside.

The inspiration behind the book emerged from observing how frequently people struggle with overthinking, emotional overwhelm, and self-doubt in today’s fast-paced world. Through her personal experiences and coaching journey, Malini realised the transformative power of pausing, becoming emotionally aware, and responding to life with mindfulness instead of impulsive reactions.

The Power to Pause explores themes such as self-worth, emotional overwhelm, inner growth, overthinking, and self-awareness. Through reflective insights and compassionate guidance, the book encourages readers to slow down and better understand their thoughts, emotions, and behavioural patterns. Rather than offering quick solutions, it gently invites readers to reconnect with themselves through awareness, reflection, and emotional honesty.

Malini hopes readers finish the book feeling emotionally stronger, calmer, and more connected to themselves. She wants the book to serve as a reminder that healing often begins with self-awareness and that clarity can emerge when individuals give themselves permission to pause.

Beyond writing, Malini continues to actively conduct one-on-one coaching sessions, workshops, and talks centred around emotional wellness and personal transformation. She also plans to continue writing in the future, exploring deeper aspects of identity, emotional healing, self-worth, and inner transformation through her experiences and insights.

Through The Power to Pause, Malini S offers readers a gentle yet powerful reminder that sometimes slowing down is the first step toward genuine growth, healing, and self-leadership.

The book is available on Amazon:

Dr Amit Kamle with the pilgrims at the Wailing Wall in Jerusalem, Israel

Pune (Maharashtra) [India], June 10: A.K. International Tourism has announced the successful completion of a 21-member Indian group tour covering Israel, Jordan and Egypt during a period of heightened regional security concerns in the Middle East.

The tour, which commenced from Mumbai on May 16, 2026, was organised and executed by A.K. International Tourism under the leadership of its Managing Director, Dr. Amit Kamle. The group completed an extensive itinerary covering 104 key historical and biblical locations across the three countries.

The safe return of the group comes at a time when the travel industry has witnessed cancellations, postponements and hesitation among travellers due to ongoing geopolitical tensions in the region. According to the company, the completion of the itinerary without disruption highlights the importance of advance planning, ground coordination and risk-managed travel operations.

A.K. International Tourism said the tour was carried out with active logistical support and coordination from the tourism authorities in Israel, Jordan and Egypt. The company added that arrangements related to accommodation, meals, inter-city travel, border movements and local transit were managed without any inconvenience to the passengers.

Speaking about the tour, Dr. Amit Kamle said the journey was made possible due to detailed planning across the three countries. He credited the safety and smooth movement of the group to proactive coordination, strong ground arrangements and the cooperation extended by tourism representatives in the region.

Several members of the group said they had concerns before departure due to the prevailing situation in the Middle East, but expressed relief and satisfaction after completing the journey safely.

Suhas Kamble, a resident of Miraj, said he had been advised by several people against travelling to Israel at the time. “There were concerns before the journey, but the confidence shown by Dr. Amit Kamle and his team helped us proceed. The entire tour was completed without any hindrance,” he said.

Rev. Ashok Gaikwad from Kolhapur also appreciated the arrangements made during the tour. He said the coordination between the tour organisers and tourism authorities ensured smooth travel, comfortable hotel stays and well-managed on-ground support throughout the itinerary.

The tour also took place under difficult personal circumstances for Dr. Kamle. While accompanying the group in Galilee, he received news of the demise of his father, Dr. Deepak Kamle. Despite the personal loss, Dr. Kamle continued to oversee the group’s movement and ensured that the tour proceeded as scheduled.

Neha Das, a participant from Pune, said Dr. Kamle’s decision to remain with the group reflected his commitment to passenger safety and professional responsibility. She said his presence helped maintain confidence among the travellers during a sensitive phase of the journey.

The company said the group is believed to be among the few Indian tour groups to complete and return from Israel during this phase of regional uncertainty. It further stated that the successful completion of the tour has helped reinforce confidence among travellers considering future visits to the region.

As part of the concluding arrangements, A.K. International Tourism presented each participant with a commemorative Ten Commandments souvenir crafted on traditional Egyptian papyrus paper.

The group returned to Mumbai’s Chhatrapati Shivaji Maharaj International Airport, where family members received the passengers after the completion of the multi-country itinerary, marking an emotional end to the journey.

A.K. International Tourism said the successful execution of the tour demonstrates that structured planning, experienced leadership and coordinated support from the tourism authority remain central to operating international group travel.

Author and leadership coach Rajesh Madan (centre) with guests during the launch of Ananda in Action, a book exploring conscious leadership, self-awareness, and business transformation.

New Delhi [India], June 9: Rajesh Madan, branding strategist, organisational culture expert, and leadership coach, has launched his first book, Ananda in Action, offering business leaders a fresh perspective on the relationship between inner awareness, leadership effectiveness, and sustainable business growth.

The book brings together Madan’s three decades of experience in branding, communications, organisational consulting, and leadership development to explore how self-awareness and conscious decision-making can help business owners build stronger organisations and lead with greater clarity and purpose.

In Ananda in Action, Madan argues that many business challenges often attributed to strategy, processes, or market conditions are, in reality, rooted in human factors such as stress, ego, fear, and the need for control. The book presents spirituality not as a retreat from business performance, but as a practical framework for improving leadership, decision-making, organisational culture, and long-term success.

Drawing from his professional journey, including his role as part of the core team at HCL Technologies during the acclaimed Employees First transformation led by VineetNayar, Madan shares insights on the importance of addressing the human dimension of business. Through real-world experiences and practical reflections, the book examines how leaders can move beyond reactive decision-making and create organisations driven by purpose, trust, and resilience.

Speaking about the launch, Rajesh Madan said, “I want to positively impact 10,000 business owners before I turn 60. That aspiration is rooted in a simple belief: when the person at the top changes, the business changes, and when the business changes, the families and communities around it change. Ananda in Action is my attempt to share a practical framework for that transformation.”

Beyond his work as an author, Madan is the founder of The Monks, a branding and communications consultancy, and Culture Coach, a leadership and organisational development practice. He also leads Grayleap, a community-driven business book club that encourages continuous learning among entrepreneurs and business leaders.

The launch event brought together prominent business owners, entrepreneurs, leadership practitioners, and authors, reflecting the growing interest in conscious leadership and purpose-driven business practices in India.

Through Ananda in Action, Rajesh Madan invites business leaders to rethink success, not merely as an outcome of strategy and execution, but as a reflection of the mindset, awareness, and values of the individuals leading the organisation.

About the Author

Rajesh Madan is a branding strategist, organisational culture consultant, leadership coach, and entrepreneur with over three decades of experience working with businesses across sectors. He is the founder of The Monks, Culture Coach, and Grayleap, and has worked extensively with business owners and leadership teams to build stronger brands, healthier organisational cultures, and more conscious leadership practices.

Chennai (Tamil Nadu) [India], June 9: In a recent conversation on The Quest Talk with Nipun Marya, CEO, iQOO, Adhi reflected on the journey that transformed a passion project into one of Tamil Nadu’s most influential cultural movements. For over a decade, HipHop Tamizha has been more than just a music act. For many young Tamils, it has been a symbol of cultural pride, self-expression, and the belief that staying rooted in one’s identity can be a strength rather than a limitation.

Recalling his early days, Adhi revealed that he initially chose to remain anonymous. “In college, I started hiding my identity. I always wore a mask and a beanie cap. In my early music videos, you’ll see a scarf around my neck. Even my parents didn’t know,” he shared. The iconic HipHop Tamizha logo emerged from this phase, drawing inspiration from the legendary Tamil poet, Mahakavi Bharathi, reflecting a deep connection to Tamil culture that would later define his work.

At a time when English music was widely seen as the pathway to a larger audience, Adhi consciously chose Tamil. “Nobody would have connected with me. My feelings are best converted into words in my first language, Tamil,” he said. That conviction led to a landmark milestone with the release of India’s first Tamil hip-hop album, years before streaming platforms reshaped the music industry, successfully selling thousands of CDs.

For Adhi, the success of Tamil music beyond regional boundaries validates a philosophy he has long believed in. “I truly believe the more local you are, the more global you are,” he said. Drawing parallels with the global rise of Punjabi music and cultural symbols like turbans and bhangra, he emphasized that audiences around the world are increasingly drawn to artists who stay true to their identity. “Have a lot of pride in whatever you are doing,” he added.

Beyond entertainment, Adhi also spoke about music’s ability to drive social and cultural change. During the Jallikattu movement, his song Takkaru Takkaru became an anthem for thousands of young people rallying behind the cause. What initially started as an effort to better understand the issue evolved into a powerful cultural statement.

“There were a lot of misconceptions around Jallikattu. We met people who explained that it wasn’t just a sport; it was an entire ecosystem connected to farmers and culture. We tried to bring that perspective into the song,” he recalled. As the movement gained momentum, the song became closely associated with the broader conversation around preserving Tamil cultural traditions.

The journey, he admits, still feels surreal. From traveling in city buses as a student and waiting for the YMCA stop to years later performing at YMCA before crowds when the Chennai metro was shut, the transformation has been remarkable. “I feel grateful,” he said. Looking back, Adhi describes HipHop Tamizha not as a brand, but as a movement. “HipHop Tamizha is a movement,” he said. A movement built on a simple belief: the more rooted you are in your culture, the farther your voice can travel.

Gurugram (Haryana) [India], June 9: In a landmark moment for India’s spiritual and cultural heritage, renowned spiritual leader Dr. Manmit Kumarr has launched the Academy of Tantra in Gurugram, becoming the country’s first woman guru to establish a dedicated academy for the systematic study, practice, and global dissemination of Tantra.

The launch marks a significant step in taking the ancient wisdom of Sanatan Dharma beyond India’s borders and presenting Tantra in its authentic form to a global audience. At a time when ancient Indian knowledge systems are gaining international recognition, the Academy of Tantra aims to become a pioneering institution dedicated to preserving, teaching, and advancing one of the oldest spiritual sciences known to humanity.

For centuries, Tantra has been surrounded by myths and misconceptions. Through the Academy, Dr. Manmit Kumarr seeks to reclaim its true essence as a profound path of self-realisation, consciousness expansion, healing, energy mastery, and spiritual evolution.

“Tantra is not a mystery; it is a science of life and consciousness rooted in Sanatan Dharma. The academy has been created to ensure that this sacred knowledge reaches seekers across the world in its purest and most authentic form,” said Dr. Kumarr during the inauguration.

The academy will offer structured learning programmes, research initiatives, workshops, retreats, mentorship opportunities, and advanced spiritual training designed for both Indian and international students. It will serve as a centre for spiritual education, bringing together practitioners, scholars, healers, and seekers from diverse backgrounds.

What makes this achievement particularly significant is the journey behind it. Years ago, Dr. Kumarr began her mission from a small cabin with a handful of students and a vision to make authentic spiritual knowledge accessible to all. Today, that vision has evolved into a full-fledged academy, making history as India’s first institution of its kind founded by a woman spiritual master.

Followers and spiritual scholars have described the launch as a defining moment in the revival of India’s ancient wisdom traditions. Beyond being an educational institution, the Academy of Tantra represents a movement to restore the dignity, authenticity, and global relevance of Sanatan knowledge systems.

With the establishment of the Academy of Tantra in Gurugram, Dr. Manmit Kumarr has positioned India once again as a source of timeless spiritual wisdom, while creating a platform that will carry the teachings of Sanatan Dharma and Tantra to seekers across continents.

The Academy of Tantra is envisioned not merely as an educational platform but as a long-term spiritual movement emerging from India for the world. The future roadmap includes global retreats, certified learning pathways, digital spiritual education, immersive consciousness experiences, leadership transformation programs, sacred pilgrimages, international collaborations, and a new generation of spiritually aligned communities.

The long-term mission is to position India once again as a global epicentre for authentic spiritual sciences while creating a modern framework through which ancient wisdom can be responsibly preserved, practiced, and transmitted.

The launch is not merely the opening of an academy; it is the beginning of a global spiritual movement led by a woman who has dedicated her life to preserving, practising, and sharing India’s sacred traditions with the world.

Born into a family that values service and responsibility, Tanya grew up witnessing the importance of giving back to the community. With her father serving as a Global Finance Director for an international NGO and her mother actively involved in social work, the spirit of community service became an important part of her upbringing. These values continue to influence her work today. Alongside her acting career, Tanya has remained involved in charity drives, fundraising campaigns, and volunteer activities through various social initiatives. Her efforts reflect a belief that influence should be used to create opportunities, inspire confidence, and support those who need encouragement. One experience in particular shaped her perspective. During the early days of her acting journey, she met a young girl outside a movie office who had lost confidence in her ability to succeed because of her background. After sharing her own struggles, challenges, and experiences, Tanya encouraged the girl to continue pursuing her dreams. Months later, she learned that the young girl had regained confidence, participated in the competition she had previously abandoned, and taken meaningful steps toward her goals. For Tanya, the experience reinforced the idea that even a simple conversation can have a lasting impact on someone’s life.

This belief continues to guide her work today. Whether through acting or social service, she seeks to inspire individuals to believe in themselves and pursue opportunities without fear. The Bharat Shreshtha Ratna Sanman 2026 recognizes this broader impact. While her achievements in entertainment have earned her visibility and recognition, her commitment to uplifting others has added purpose to her journey. Her message remains simple yet powerful: every dream is valid, regardless of where a person comes from. Through consistency, determination, and self-belief, individuals can overcome obstacles and create meaningful change in their lives. As Tanya Choudhury continues to expand her career and social initiatives, this recognition stands as both an achievement and a reminder of the influence that can be created when talent is combined with compassion. Her journey reflects a growing generation of artists who are using their platforms not only to entertain but also to inspire and empower others.

New Delhi [India], June 09: In a world where countless animals are abandoned, injured, neglected, or left to fend for themselves, Barkville Foundation stands as a beacon of hope, compassion, and action. Located on the outskirts of Gandhinagar, the charitable animal welfare NGO has dedicated itself to rescuing, rehabilitating, and rehoming animals that have nowhere else to go.

The name 99Barkville perfectly reflects the spirit of the organization. “Barkville” represents a city of dogs—a safe haven where animals can find care, dignity, and belonging. The number “99” symbolizes being at full capacity while always making room for one more life in need. No matter how crowded the shelter becomes, the commitment remains unchanged: if an animal needs help, Barkville will find a way.

Today, the shelter provides refuge to more than 100 rescued pet and community dogs, along with cattle, goats, rabbits, birds, and equines. Every resident at Barkville carries a unique story. Some were abandoned by their owners, while others were rescued from roadsides after accidents, illness, abuse, or severe neglect. Many require long-term medical treatment, rehabilitation, behavioral support, or lifelong care.

Over the past three years, Barkville Foundation has made an extraordinary impact on animal welfare. The organization has successfully rescued more than 800 animals and provided emergency medical treatment to over 350 critical cases. Its dedicated veterinary team has conducted more than 100 surgeries and supported hundreds of rehabilitation cases, helping injured and vulnerable animals recover and regain a better quality of life.

The foundation also plays a vital role in public health and humane population management. Through its Animal Birth Control programme, Barkville has carried out sterilization procedures and administered approximately 1,000 anti-rabies vaccinations. These efforts not only improve animal welfare but also contribute significantly to safer and healthier communities.

Adoption remains one of the organization’s most important goals. Through dedicated rehabilitation and follow-up support, numerous rescued animals have found loving forever homes. For those unable to adopt, Barkville offers sponsorship and virtual adoption programmes, allowing individuals to directly support the care and well-being of rescued animals.

The foundation actively collaborates with communities, volunteers, and corporate partners through awareness campaigns, rescue assistance, educational initiatives, and CSR partnerships. Support from businesses and individuals helps sustain rescue operations, medical care, feeding programmes, shelter infrastructure, and outreach efforts.

Recently, Barkville’s rescued pups captured hearts when they participated in a pet fashion showcase by Tails & Threads Pet Couture by Archana Jain during Ahmedabad Fashion Week Season 3. While the event celebrated fashion and creativity, its deeper message was far more meaningful—that rescued animals deserve the same love, opportunities, and recognition as every other pet.

At its core, Barkville Foundation is much more than a shelter. It is a place of healing, hope, and second chances. Through compassion, dedication, and community support, the organization continues to transform lives every day, proving that true humanity is reflected in how we care for those who cannot speak for themselves.

Because compassion is not measured by what we feel—it is measured by what we choose to do.

New Delhi [India], June 08: The Bharat Shreshtha Ratna Sanman 2026, a prestigious recognition celebrating individuals who create meaningful impact in society, has been conferred upon Vidhi Agarwal Kotap for her contribution to martial arts, women’s empowerment, youth development, and community service. The honour recognizes years of dedication towards building confidence, discipline, and self-reliance among children and women through sports and self-defense training. 

As a member of the Traditional Combat Martial Art Association (TCMAA), Vidhi has consistently worked towards making martial arts accessible to people from all backgrounds. Her journey is built on the belief that physical strength and mental confidence have the power to transform lives. Through her academy, she has trained students in Kung Fu, Wushu, Kickboxing, and Gymnastics while promoting values such as discipline, perseverance, and self-belief. A decorated martial artist herself, Vidhi has earned multiple state and national-level medals over the years. Her achievements include gold medals at national and state championships, silver medals at national competitions, and recognition across various Wushu and Kung Fu tournaments. 

These accomplishments reflect years of commitment to excellence in sports. However, the Bharat Shreshtha Ratna Sanman 2026 recognizes more than competitive success. It acknowledges her efforts to use martial arts as a tool for social change. One of the most significant aspects of her work is providing free training to underprivileged children whose families cannot afford professional coaching. By removing financial barriers, she ensures that talent and determination are given opportunities to flourish regardless of economic circumstances.

Her commitment to women’s empowerment is equally noteworthy. Every Sunday, free self-defense camps are organized in Marve Ganesh Nagar, where girls and women are trained in practical self-protection skills. These initiatives aim to build confidence and independence while helping participants feel safer and stronger in their daily lives. Vidhi strongly believes that discipline and fitness should begin at an early age. Through her training programs, children are encouraged to develop healthy habits, confidence, and leadership qualities from a young age. She views sports not only as physical activity but also as a foundation for lifelong success. 

Her impact extends into her personal life as well. Alongside her husband, Ramkrishna Kotap, a National Wushu Player, Coach, and active Member of TCMAA, she has created an environment where sports, discipline, and self-belief are central values. Together, they have dedicated their lives to nurturing young talent and helping children develop confidence, resilience, and leadership qualities through martial arts and structured training. Their son Yoddha earned recognition in the India Book of Records at the age of three, while their daughter Dheera later surpassed a previous record with an extraordinary cartwheel achievement at the age of four. These accomplishments reflect the family’s belief in nurturing confidence, discipline, and perseverance from childhood. Beyond sports, Vidhi also demonstrated exceptional community service during the COVID-19 pandemic. 

Together with her husband Ramkrishna Kotap, she helped operate Shree Krishna Chemist, working tirelessly to ensure that people had access to medicines and essential healthcare support during one of the most difficult periods faced by society. Their commitment to serving the community during the Corona crisis reflected the same values of compassion, responsibility, and dedication that define their work today. The Bharat Shreshtha Ratna Sanman 2026 celebrates not only her achievements as an athlete and coach but also her contribution to society. Through sports, education, self-defense, and mentorship, she continues to create opportunities for others to discover their strength and potential. Her story serves as a reminder that success becomes more meaningful when it is used to uplift others and inspire positive change.

New Delhi [India], June 8: The prestigious Bharat Shreshtha Ratna Sanman 2026 has been conferred upon educator, author, and parenting mentor Neera Paritosh, recognizing her significant contribution to education, emotional development, and conscious parenting. The honour celebrates individuals whose work creates meaningful social impact, and for Neera, it represents the continuation of a mission that has been influencing lives for decades.For more than thirty-three years, Neera has worked closely with students, particularly those in Classes 11 and 12. While her role began as that of a teacher, her observations extended far beyond academics. Over the years, she noticed that many challenges faced by young people often originated from deeper emotional and family dynamics. This realisation led her to an important understanding: if children are expected to grow and thrive, parents must also continue evolving. That belief eventually became the foundation of “Parenting the Parent,” an initiative that encourages parents to focus on their own emotional growth, communication patterns, and self-awareness. Instead of concentrating solely on correcting children, the movement highlights the importance of personal transformation within parents themselves. The idea has resonated with families from diverse backgrounds because it addresses parenting from a perspective that is both practical and deeply human.

Neera’s commitment to this work is supported by continuous learning. Alongside her academic qualifications in Commerce and Education, she has completed more than 45 professional development courses covering coaching, communication, behavioural understanding, emotional intelligence, and personal growth.Her desire to make these insights accessible to a wider audience led her to author two books, Ripple of Words and Parenting the Parent. Through these works, she explores themes of self-discovery, emotional resilience, and the role individuals play in shaping healthier relationships and stronger communities. Beyond writing, she has embraced digital platforms to expand her reach. Through podcasts, interviews, educational content, and transformational programs such as Better You, Better Child, she continues to engage with parents, educators, and individuals seeking meaningful personal growth. Her journey has also been recognised through several honours and accolades. In March 2026, she received the Rashtriya Ratan Samman in recognition of her contribution to education and personal development. She has also been honoured through various national platforms, author recognitions, leadership features, and media publications celebrating influential changemakers. However, what truly distinguishes her work is not the number of recognitions she has received but the lives she continues to influence through her message.

Neera believes that children often learn more from what parents demonstrate than from what they are told. Her philosophy encourages families to cultivate emotional intelligence, empathy, resilience, and self-awareness as foundational life skills. The Bharat Shreshtha Ratna Sanman 2026 acknowledges this larger vision. It recognises a woman who has spent decades helping people understand themselves better so they can build healthier relationships and create positive change within their homes and communities.As conversations around parenting, mental well-being, and emotional health become increasingly important in modern society, NeeraParitosh continues to offer a thoughtful and compassionate voice. Her recognition serves as an inspiration for educators, parents, and mentors who believe that meaningful transformation begins from within.For Neera, this honor is not merely a personal achievement. It is a celebration of a purpose-driven journey dedicated to empowering families, strengthening human connections, and creating lasting impact across generations.

New Delhi [India], June 8: Author and actor Rajesh Nigam explores the Healing Power of gratitude, Forgiveness & Positive Thinking in his book titled ” Heal Yourself With Mind Power & Gratitude,” which highlights the profound connection between the mind, emotions, and the body’s natural healing process.

Drawing upon nearly fifteen years of experience in the paramedical and pharmaceutical industry, along with his own personal healing journey, Rajesh Nigam offers readers a simple yet impactful approach to improving overall well-being through positive thinking, gratitude, forgiveness, and emotional balance.

The book explores an important observation often witnessed in medical practice — individuals suffering from the same illness and receiving identical treatment frequently experience very different healing outcomes. According to the author, one of the most significant factors influencing recovery is the patient’s mental and emotional state. Through this work, he explains how emotions such as hope, gratitude, forgiveness, and positive belief can activate the body’s natural healing mechanisms and contribute meaningfully to recovery.

Heal Yourself with Mind Power & Gratitude combines practical healing techniques with accessible explanations of psychosomatic influences on health, mind-body energy systems, chakras, emotional healing, and the balance of the five elements. The book also includes affirmations designed for specific health conditions and introduces readers to a structured four-week healing practice aimed at developing a healthier and more positive mindset.

One of the most compelling aspects of the book is the author’s own experience of healing an enlarged prostate without surgery through disciplined practice involving gratitude, forgiveness, and positive affirmations. While emphasizing that the book is not a replacement for medical treatment, Rajesh Nigam encourages readers to adopt a supportive healing mindset alongside professional healthcare.

Apart from his extensive contribution to the healthcare and pharmaceutical industry, Rajesh Nigam has also led a remarkable parallel journey in the field of acting. He began his professional career as a Medical Representative with Torrent Pharma in Kanpur, where he played a key role in launching the company’s operations. His success led to further opportunities with Tata Pharma, where he was entrusted with launching operations in both Kanpur and Moradabad.

Later, his career took an artistic turn when he moved to Mumbai and entered the world of acting. Rajesh Nigam worked in the critically acclaimed television series Tamas, directed by renowned filmmaker Govind Nihalani, where he portrayed the important role of Congress leader Shankar alongside veteran actor A.K. Hangal. Over the years, he has appeared in more than twenty films and television serials, including feature films such as Dharmyudh alongside Sunil Dutt, Shatrughan Sinha, Aditya Pancholi, Kimi Katkar, and Suresh Oberoi, as well as Virodhi, directed by Raj Kumar Kohli. He was also associated with the television series Param Veer Chakra by the legendary Chetan Anand.

Despite his successful acting career, Rajesh Nigam continued his association with pharmaceutical marketing and held several senior leadership positions with organizations such as Synthiko Pharma, Torrent Pharma, Alidac Pharma of the Zydus Group, and Meyer Organics. During his tenure with Meyer Organics, he served as Regional Manager overseeing Mumbai operations and managing a large team of medical representatives and area managers.

Through Heal Yourself with Mind Power & Gratitude, Rajesh Nigam brings together his diverse life experiences across healthcare, personal healing, leadership, and creativity to offer readers a meaningful guide toward inner balance and wellness. His work serves as a reminder that healing is not only physical, but also emotional, mental, and spiritual.

Kathmandu [Nepal], June 8: The fourth edition of the Kathmandu–Kalinga Literary Festival (KLF) commenced on Saturday at Hotel Himalaya, Lalitpur, bringing together eminent writers, scholars, artists, and cultural leaders from across South Asia. The two-day festival was inaugurated by former Prime Minister Sushila Karki.

Addressing the inaugural session, Festival Director Ranjana Niraula emphasized that literature extends beyond words and books, serving as a shared celebration of ideas, culture, memory, empathy, and human potential.

“Literature is not merely a literary gathering; it is a platform that nurtures intimacy, dialogue, and mutual understanding among people. Its greatest strength lies in transcending geographical boundaries, transforming linguistic diversity into human connection, and building invisible bridges between communities,” she said.

Niraula noted that Kathmandu and Kalinga symbolize not only geographical locations but also rich civilizational traditions, cultural heritage, and intellectual journeys. She added that the festival aims to strengthen regional dialogue and cooperation through the exchange of literature, culture, and ideas.

Held under the theme “Beyond Borders: South Asian Literature in a Changing World,” the festival has attracted authors, researchers, intellectuals, and cultural personalities from Nepal, India, and other South Asian nations.

Sushila Karki Reflects on Literature and Life

In her keynote address, former Prime Minister Sushila Karki spoke about her enduring connection with literature, describing writing as deeply intertwined with society, personal experiences, and everyday life.

“I am not far from literature. In 1990, I wrote a novel with a protagonist named Tara and also translated poems by Ashesh Malla into Hindi,” she shared.

Karki reflected on the work of renowned American novelist Pearl S. Buck, noting how the author captured the realities of poverty, drought, and social life in China through close observation. Drawing parallels with her own literary journey, Karki said that literature is not simply a product of imagination but a reflection of society, experience, and human emotions.

Prominent Literary and Cultural Voices Participate

Festival Founder Director and Curator Rashmi Ranjan Parida said the fourth edition features panel discussions, keynote lectures, poetry recitations, musical performances, interactive author sessions, book launches, workshops, cultural programs, and cross-border literary collaborations.

Distinguished participants include acclaimed singer Ila Arun, celebrated author Pratibha Ray, renowned actor-writer Piyush Mishra, writer-filmmaker Raj Shekhar, and spiritual thinker Acharya Prashant.

Other notable participants include Vikas Swarup, Paramita Satpathy, Badri Narayan, Malini Awasthi, Narayani Basu, Vikram Sampath, Buddhisagar, Ashutosh Agnihotri, Sujit Kumar, Yunus Khan, and several leading literary figures from across the region.

According to Parida, the festival will examine how South Asian literature, art, and intellectual traditions engage with contemporary global challenges, cultural transformations, identity, inclusivity, spirituality, and social change.

Recognized as one of India’s leading international literary platforms, the Kalinga Literary Festival has organized its Kathmandu edition annually since 2022. The festival continues to strengthen literary, cultural, spiritual, and civilizational ties among Nepal, India, and the wider South Asian region.

Kolkata (West Bengal) [India], June 8: West Bengal Minister Dilip Ghosh, Acharya Lokesh, founder of Ahimsa Vishwa Bharti, and Swami Govinddev Giri, Treasurer of the Shri Ram Janmabhoomi Trust, addressed the national seminar titled “Peace, Harmony, and Development.” The event was held at the Rabindranath Tagore Auditorium in Kolkata, where the West Bengal branch of Ahimsa Vishwa Bharti was formally inaugurated by Minister Ghosh. The gathering was also addressed by Sardar Satnam Singh Ahluwalia of Gurdwara Behala, Kolkata, and Dr. Buddha Priya Bhikshu of the Bharatiya Sangharaj Bhikshu Mahasabha.

Senior Minister Dilip Ghosh said that under the guidance of the internationally renowned Jain Acharya Lokesh, the newly inaugurated West Bengal branch of Ahimsa Vishwa Bharti will actively work to promote non-violence, peace, harmony, social unity, and holistic development throughout the state. He expressed confidence that the initiative would foster greater awareness, cooperation, and progress in West Bengal. Minister Ghosh’s wife, Rinku Majumdar Ghosh, was also present at the event.

Acharya Lokesh, known as a global messenger of peace, said that peace, harmony, and development are three fundamental pillars that are deeply interconnected and essential for the progress of any nation, society, and human life. At a time when the world is grappling with war and violence, there is a greater need than ever for peace, harmony, and inclusive development. A peaceful environment enables individuals to realize and develop their full potential.

He noted that the organization is committed to building national character, promoting human values, and establishing peace, harmony, and non-violence globally. The opening of its branch in West Bengal, he said, will give new momentum to peace, harmony, and development in the state. He also pledged full support for the humanitarian initiatives of Ahimsa Vishwa Bharti.

Swami Govinddev Giri remarked that Sanatan Dharma is not merely a religious tradition but a way of life that guides humanity toward peace, love, compassion, and harmony. In today’s world, which faces numerous conflicts and divisions, there is a pressing need for spiritual leaders like Acharya Lokesh and organizations such as Ahimsa Vishwa Bharti.

Sardar Satnam Singh Ahluwalia said that Indian culture is not just an ideal but a way of life that teaches people to be sensitive, tolerant, and cooperative toward others.

Dr. Buddha Priya Bhikshu stated that under the guidance of Acharya Lokesh, the organization will play a significant role in connecting various sections of society in West Bengal through its promotion of human values, service, and public welfare activities.

New Delhi [India], June 06: Member of Parliament, author, and historian Dr. Shashi Tharoor has urged younger generations to watch 1947: Brexit India, a feature-length documentary that re-examines India’s Independence and Partition through an economic and geopolitical lens. Speaking at a special screening of the documentary held at PVR Chanakyapuri, New Delhi, Tharoor said that every Gen Z and Gen Alpha viewer should watch the film if they wish to better understand the realities of British rule and the circumstances surrounding India’s Independence.

The screening was attended by diplomats, historians, senior media professionals, policymakers, and other distinguished guests. An official selection at the International Film Festival of India (IFFI) 2023, 1947: Brexit India is currently gearing up for its digital premiere on a leading OTT platform.

Produced by Dr. Swarnjit Singh, written by Shama Zaidi, directed by Sanjivan Lal, and narrated by acclaimed actor Boman Irani, the documentary traces the 338-year British presence in India through a historical and economic lens. Drawing on over a decade of research, archival material, and expert commentary, the film examines the financial pressures, geopolitical developments, and policy decisions that shaped the end of British rule and the events leading up to Partition.

The film features contributions from Dr. Shashi Tharoor, historian William Dalrymple, Commodore Uday Bhaskar, political scientist Dr. Ishtiaq Ahmed, and several other scholars and experts, while Boman Irani lends his voice to the narrative.

Speaking about the documentary, Dr. Shashi Tharoor remarked, “History is never merely about the past; it continues to shape the present. Delighted to have contributed to this thoughtful exploration of India’s long encounter with British rule.” He further noted that the documentary offers an important perspective for younger audiences seeking to understand the forces that shaped modern India.

According to producer and concept creator Dr. Swarnjit Singh, the project seeks to examine the economic realities underpinning the final years of the British Empire and encourage audiences to engage with lesser-explored dimensions of 1947.

Director Sanjivan Lal said one of the key creative challenges was transforming years of historical and financial research into a compelling cinematic narrative while retaining factual depth and scholarly rigor.

The documentary’s central argument is supported through historical records, expert insights, and archival research, offering audiences a perspective that moves beyond conventional political narratives surrounding Independence and Partition.

New Delhi [India], June 06: Today, hair transplant surgery is the standard surgical method to treat advanced stages of Androgenetic alopecia, also known as male/female pattern hair loss. The procedure involves harvesting healthy hair follicles from the occipital region (i.e., the back of the scalp), which are resistant to dihydrotestosterone (DHT), the hormone responsible for hair loss, and implanting them in thinning or balding regions of the scalp. A hair transplant procedure can be a life-changing decision for those struggling with pattern baldness. It restores not only lost hair but also confidence and self-esteem. However, people considering the procedure often have one question: how long does it take to see hair transplant results?

Dr. Navnit Haror, a gold medalist dermatologist and international hair transplant surgeon, says, “This is one of the most common questions we hear from our patients.” Actually, it is human nature to seek instant results, but hair growth takes time. Following a hair transplant procedure, the transplanted follicles grow according to a natural hair growth cycle. For the first few days, the new follicles take some time to settle into their new location; this is followed by some shedding, after which new, healthy strands begin to grow, notes Dr. Haror.

Month-by-Month Hair Transplant Results Progress

Month 1: The Healing and Shedding Phase

In the first month after a hair transplant procedure, the focus remains on healing and the start of the growth cycle. Patients may experience some discomfort, swelling, or redness in the recipient and donor sites, which are temporary and diminish within a few days. During the first few weeks, the scalp will develop small black scabs as the skin heals. Patients are recommended to wash the scalp with a gentle shampoo, such as baby shampoo or products supplied by the clinic, and to avoid scratching or picking their scalp. From week two to week four, the patient will experience the “shedding phase” or “shock loss.” While this can be upsetting for the patient, it is perfectly normal. The transplanted hair shafts will shed, but the follicles remain safe and healthy, prepared to start growing new hair.

Months 2-3: The Dormancy Phase

The second and third months are often considered the most psychologically challenging phase. During this period, the scalp may appear largely unchanged, and the area may look as thin as it did prior to the surgery. The hair follicles have entered a resting phase.

“It’s normal to feel a little nervous or impatient when there’s no immediate growth, but this is the ‘silent success’ stage where the groundwork is being done beneath the skin’s surface,” says Dr. Navnit Haror.

“During this resting period, patients need to be patient and adhere to their clinic’s aftercare advice. By the end of month three, the first signs of new hair growth appear as thin ‘baby hair’ begins to break through the skin, providing evidence of life for the new follicles.”

Months 4-6: Early Growth and Visible Developments

By month four, things start to get exciting. You begin to see new hair growth, but it’s still quite fine and may appear a bit wiry or patchy at first. Over the next two months, this new hair begins to look similar to the surrounding native hair. Months five and six are a time for growth and increasing density. The hair grows at a consistent rate (about half an inch per month). There is a noticeable improvement in hairline shape and coverage. This is also the period when patients can begin to try different hairstyles.

Months 6 to 9: Dramatic Changes

Between the six and nine months, patients notice a remarkable transformation. Transplanted hair starts becoming thick, and the hair density increases so much that the new hair gets mixed with the existing hair so well that it becomes difficult to differentiate which is transplanted hair and which is old.

Months 9 to 12+: Maturation and Final Results

By the 9- to 12-month mark, most patients reach the final stages of their hair restoration journey. The hair continues to grow thicker, with its natural strength and density. While hair transplant results become visible by one year, some patients, especially those who have had the procedure performed on the crown area, may take up to 18 months for fully mature hair, taking on its final texture and thickness.

A hair transplant is an excellent way of recovering lost hair and self-esteem. But it’s important to keep in mind that hair restoration is a gradual process. You can’t have a hair transplant today and expect to see the results in 10 days. So, what to expect with hair transplant results is essential to help you set the right expectations. Also, remember that a hair transplant will cover your bald patches. It’s unlikely your hair will look exactly like it did in high school or college. So expect the procedure to give you the right results. If you’re interested in hair restoration, book your personal consultation with Dr. Haror’s Wellness, the leading hair transplant clinic in Delhi, India, that provides the best hair transplant results in India.

New Delhi [India], June 06: If you live in Delhi, you have certainly experienced this: waking up to a smoggy morning, washing your face with hard water, and by afternoon, your skin feels like a magnet, attracting dust and pollutants, while your hair becomes dry, frizzy, and lifeless. This is the reality for almost every Delhiite. This is why the demand for the best dermatologists in Delhi for skin and hair has surged—not just among the elite, but among the general public as well. Dermatology clinics in Delhi are seeing a massive shift in how people approach their self-care in a post-pandemic and high-pollution world.

COVID Changed the Definition of Health and Wellness

COVID-19 was an unprecedented and devastating experience for all of us. However, the pandemic changed us—particularly in terms of health and wellness. We have become more dedicated and sincere regarding our health. Our focus has shifted from short-term and temporary fixes to permanent and robust solutions. Today, people are more conscious than ever. They don’t just want to look healthy; they want their skin and hair to actually be healthy.

“The ‘Post-Covid’ era brought a wellness revolution,” says Dr. Vineeta Pathak, a prominent skin specialist in Delhi. “People realized that skin is our first line of defense. They are moving away from the 10-step routines they saw on Instagram or YouTube and are asking for ‘skinimalism’—fewer products, but ones that actually work. They want to repair the damage caused by stress and masks, and they want professional guidance to do it.”

The Social Media Trap

We live in the age of social media. Everyone wants to look beautiful and well-groomed. People watch skincare or haircare hacks on Instagram or YouTube and try them out themselves. They are constantly on the lookout for a hack or trick that will help them quickly solve their skin or hair problems. However, in a city like Delhi—characterized by high levels of pollution and adverse weather conditions—these social media hacks often do not work; on the contrary, they can actually cause harm. Skin specialists in Delhi at Dr. Haror’s Wellness point out that while social media has undoubtedly raised awareness regarding personal health and made dermatology more accessible, it has also spread a lot of misinformation. As a result, people are damaging their hair and skin by experimenting with various unverified hacks. The goal shouldn’t be to look like a filter; it should be to have skin that can breathe and hair that can withstand Delhi’s hostile weather.

The Delhi Struggle: Dust, Heat, and Hard Water

Delhi’s climate is a unique beast—extreme summer temperatures (up to 50°C), bone-chilling winters, and breathing in one of the world’s most polluted air. This environmental stress takes an extreme toll on the skin, resulting in increased cases of skin inflammation and premature skin aging among Delhiites.

“The pollution in the NCR is not only a respiratory problem, but also a concern for the skin and hair,” says Dr. Vineeta Pathak. “The pollutants get trapped in your pores and accumulate on your scalp, causing more breakouts, skin dullness, and an itchy or oily scalp.”

It’s not the skin alone that is getting a beating. Talk to any dermatologist for hair loss in Delhi NCR, and he/she will tell you that hair fall is the number one concern in their clinic. Our hair is under siege between the high mineral content of the water in the city and the constant oxidative stress.

Dr. Navnit Haror, the founder of Dr. Haror Wellness, is of the opinion that the secret lies in the inner health and early medical intervention. “I see patients every day who have tried every haircare product in the market with no luck,” says Dr. Navnit Haror. “The truth is, hair loss in a high-stress environment like Delhi needs a clinical approach. Whether it’s nutrition or advanced therapy, we have to treat the root, not just the strand.”

Essential Tips for Healthy Skin and Hair

Maintaining healthy skin and hair in Delhi NCR requires discipline and the right products. The dermatologists in Delhi NCR at Dr. Haror’s Wellness suggest focusing on the following basic lifestyle choices:

• Sun Protection is a Must: The sun in Delhi is notoriously harsh. It is best to use a broad-spectrum sunscreen daily, even on a cloudy day or when you are indoors, to prevent premature aging, dark spots, and pigmentation.
• Use Sulphate-Free Shampoo for Hair Wash: Delhi’s hard water and harsh ingredients in your shampoos can remove the natural oils in your scalp. So, you should always use mild, gentle, and sulphate-free shampoos that help maintain the pH balance of the scalp and prevent hair from becoming brittle and prone to breakage.
• Pay Attention to Your Diet: What you eat reflects on your face and hair. The oxidative stress caused due to air pollution in Delhi can be countered by increasing your intake of antioxidants; these include colorful berries, greens, and nuts.
• Hydration and Hair Washes: Although it is tempting to wash hair every day to remove the dust, excessive hair washing can result in a dry, itchy scalp. Stick to a routine of 2-3 times a week, ensuring you rinse thoroughly to remove all product buildup.
• Sleep and Stress Management: A major cause of acne outbreaks and sudden loss of hair is a high level of cortisol due to the stress of urban lifestyles. The key to any personal care routine is prioritizing 7-8 hours of quality sleep.

When Lifestyle Isn’t Enough: Advanced Clinical Solutions

Sometimes, despite the best diet and the most expensive sunscreens, we can’t beat the environmental stressors and require a more targeted, medical approach. For those experiencing persistent hair and skin issues, consulting the best dermatologist in Delhi, NCR can be the ideal choice rather than home remedies and guesswork treatments.

Dr. Navnit Haror, a Gold Medalist Dermatologist and international hair transplant surgeon, says that, “Today, medical science, particularly dermatology, has evolved to meet the needs of the modern urban population. When lifestyle changes aren’t helping in preventing hair fall, we look toward regenerative science,” says Dr. Navnit Haror. “Treatments like PRP (Platelet-Rich Plasma) and GFC (Growth Factor Concentrate) have become game-changers. They use the patient’s own biological resources to strengthen follicles and encourage new growth without the need for invasive surgery.” For the skin, specialized medifacials like HydraFacial and collagen-boosting therapies like skin boosters, fillers, Botox, etc., chemical peels, and laser treatments are often recommended to repair the damage caused by PM2.5 pollutants and UV exposure. These treatments go beyond the surface and work at a cellular level to restore the glow.

Professional, Science-Based Care is the Need of the Hour

The definition of being healthy has evolved. Your skin and hair tell about your overall health. Maintaining healthy skin and hair is a marathon, not a sprint. With some changes in lifestyle choices and daily habits and professional guidance, you can achieve healthy & glowing skin and luscious locks. Dr. Haror’s Wellness, a leading dermatology clinic in Delhi, combining state-of-the-art dermatology treatments with a compassionate, patient-first approach, continues to lead in offering world-class dermatological solutions for more than 18 years. Whether you are looking for the best dermatologist in Delhi, NCR, for a persistent skin condition or a specialized hair doctor in Delhi to restore your hair and confidence, you can rely on them for professional, science-based, and sustainable solutions.

FAQs

Q. How Can I Control Hair Fall?

To prevent hair fall, you need to take a balanced diet that should include protein, iron, and vitamins, practice stress management, and avoid excess use of heating tools or other harsh chemical treatments. Additionally, use a gentle shampoo, oil your hair frequently, and see a dermatologist in case hair loss does not stop, or is intense.

Q. How Do I Improve My Skin Health?

To enhance your skin condition, you should have a regular skincare routine, such as washing your skin, moisturizing, and wearing sunscreen every day. Keep hydrated, maintain a balanced diet with plenty of vitamins. Exercise and sleep are also important in maintaining your skin healthy and shiny.

New Delhi [India], June 05: When GRASA Millets & Foods Pvt. Ltd. — India’s first food-led metabolic recovery system, built on the science of millets, fermentation, and gut health — walked onto the stage at Bharat Mandapam to receive the Rashtriya Ratna Samman 2026: Emerging Health Tech & Nutrition Innovation Startup of the Year, it marked the public emergence of something far larger than one company’s achievement. GRASA, the precision nutrition arm of MediCAPS, has been incubated within IDC India — Innovation Development Council — led by Chairman Dr. Arun Chaudhary — through its flagship startup incubation ecosystem, COSMINNOX. Its clinical outcomes and food science have since been studied and documented by scholars of IDCIJST — IDC India’s peer-reviewed International Journal of Science and Technology — with findings accessible at idcijst.com. The award, presented by actress and Member of Parliament Smt. Kangana Ranaut, was not just recognition of a startup. It was validation of an entire ecosystem. 

The Problem at the Centre

Seven in ten urban Indians over 35 are metabolically compromised — sluggish gut, unstable blood sugar, disrupted hormones, depleted energy. They consult doctors, follow advice, invest in supplements. Nothing shifts at the root. The reason is structural: daily food is biologically incompatible with human metabolism. Refined carbohydrates, zero fermentation, depleted fibre — a food supply built for shelf life, not human biology.

GRASA was built to close that gap.

Not a Product. A Protocol.

GRASA engineers everyday food — Protein Millet Flour, Fermented Sourdough Bread, Fermented Choco-Chip Cookies — through a 72-hour natural fermentation process that breaks anti-nutrients, restores gut microbiome, stabilises glucose response, and reduces chronic inflammation. The science is deliberate: fermented millets, when consumed daily, function as slow, compounding medicine. No pills. No powders. No deprivation.

The outcomes are documented: 500+ clients across Delhi NCR, with 87% reporting measurable improvement in energy and digestion within 30 days. Conditions addressed include PCOS, pre-diabetes, fatty liver, chronic gut dysfunction, and hormonal imbalance. As the precision nutrition arm of MediCAPS, each client is profiled through a 12-point metabolic screener and assigned to a condition-specific programme — Gut Correction, Glycaemic Recovery, Hormonal Support, or Metabolic Reset — designed and monitored by qualified nutritionists.

“This is not wellness. This is clinical nutrition delivered through daily food,” said Ms. Deepti Anand, Director & Co-Founder, GRASA. “We close the gap between what a doctor prescribes and what a person eats every day — because that is where metabolic disease lives.”

IDC India and COSMINNOX: The Ecosystem That Shaped GRASA

GRASA did not emerge in isolation. It was incubated and scaled within IDC India — Innovation Development Council, chaired by Dr. Arun Chaudhary, through its startup incubation ecosystem COSMINNOX — India’s Founder Operating System. COSMINNOX gave GRASA what most early-stage startups never access: a structured founder journey through the SANDBOX platform, a credibility engine documenting milestones for investors and partners, a peer network of founders and mentors, and — through IDCIJST — a formal academic pathway to validate its science.

GRASA is also the flagship proof of concept within COSMINNOX’s Founder Health Stack, the platform’s most differentiated layer, which treats metabolic health as a business variable, not a lifestyle afterthought. Under Dr. Arun Chaudhary’s leadership, IDC India Innovation Development Council does not simply house startups — it builds the clinical, academic, and community systems within which founders create solutions that endure.

IDCIJST: Where the Science Gets Published

What distinguishes this ecosystem is its commitment to peer-reviewed knowledge. The Innovation Development Council’s International Journal of Science and Technology (IDCIJST), published under IDC India, has documented the clinical nutrition science underpinning GRASA’s protocols — making the research openly accessible at idcijst.com. With an international editorial board spanning management, engineering, health sciences, and emerging technologies, IDCIJST ensures that what GRASA’s founders practise in kitchens and clinics is studied, validated, and preserved in the academic record.

What This Award Signals for India

The Rashtriya Ratna Samman 2026 is recognition not just of GRASA, but of a model — one where food science, clinical nutrition, startup incubation, and academic research reinforce each other rather than operate in silos. What GRASA, MediCAPS, IDC India, COSMINNOX, and IDCIJST are building together is a complete answer to India’s deepening metabolic health crisis: a food system that heals, an incubation ecosystem that validates founders, a platform that tracks real journeys, and a journal that turns clinical outcomes into durable knowledge.

The award was received at Bharat Mandapam, New Delhi. The work continues at GL-7, Ashoka Estate, Barakhamba Road, Connaught Place, New Delhi — 110001.

Ubhrat, (Gujarat) [India], June 05: Reinforcing its commitment to environmental sustainability and community engagement, Khavda 4C Power Transmission Limited organized a large-scale beach clean-up drive at Ubhrat Beach on the occasion of World Environment Day. Aligned with the official World Environment Day 2026 theme, “Inspired by Nature. For Climate. For Our Future.”, the initiative reflected the company’s dedication towards environmental conservation and climate-conscious action at the grassroots level.

The clean-up drive at Ubhrat Beach aimed to raise awareness about responsible waste disposal, marine conservation, and the importance of preserving natural ecosystems. Employees actively participated in collecting plastic waste, discarded packaging materials, and other non-biodegradable litter from the shoreline, helping restore the cleanliness and ecological balance of one of South Gujarat’s popular coastal destinations.

Speaking on the occasion, Mr. Kumar Gaurav, Project Head, Surat Project, Khavda 4C Power Transmission Limited, said, “World Environment Day reminds us that environmental responsibility is a shared commitment. Through this beach clean-up initiative, we wanted to contribute meaningfully to environmental conservation while encouraging our employees and the community to adopt sustainable habits. The overwhelming participation reflects our collective dedication towards protecting nature for future generations.”

Sharing his views, Mr. Kandarp Pandey, Project Head, Surat Project, Khavda 4C Power Transmission Limited, said, “The collection of nearly 1,500 kg of waste demonstrates both the scale of the challenge and the impact that collective action can create. We are proud of our employees and partners who came together for this cause. Such initiatives not only improve the environment but also inspire greater awareness about the importance of maintaining clean public spaces.”

Representatives from Book For Change Foundation appreciated the support extended by Khavda 4C Power Transmission Limited and emphasized the significance of collaborative efforts between corporates and civil society organizations in driving positive environmental change.

The initiative forms part of Khavda 4C Power Transmission Limited’s broader commitment to sustainability, responsible corporate citizenship, and creating a positive impact on the communities in which it operates.

Metropolis leadership team – Dr. Kirti Chadha, Dr. Vani Ravikumar, Dr. Ravikumar HN and Dr. Naveen Kumar S at the event

The recognition acknowledges Metropolis’ leadership in building a robust, technology-enabled quality ecosystem that delivers accurate, reliable, and clinically meaningful diagnostics to millions of patients across India. At the core of this achievement is Metropolis’ integrated quality intelligence framework, which combines scientific rigour, data-driven governance, advanced analytics, standardised laboratory practices, and continuous quality monitoring to ensure consistency across the entire diagnostic journey—from sample collection and transportation to testing and report delivery.

Achievements at a Glance

Metropolis today delivers 99.99% report accuracy across 3,512 diagnostic tests, maintains 100% compliance with ISO 15189:2022 standards across accredited laboratories, and stringently monitors quality data points through advanced analytics platforms. Its quality ecosystem is further strengthened by 582 NABL-accredited sample collection facilities, and a network of more than 275 authorized signatories providing scientific oversight and governance over reporting and verification of all new test/ method/ platform before induction.

Metropolis has consistently invested in building one of India's most comprehensive laboratory excellence ecosystems. Its network-wide governance framework spans over 210 laboratories and thousands of patient touchpoints, supported by NABL and CAP accreditations, standardised SOPs, structured audit systems, real-time monitoring, and analytics-driven quality control processes.

A key differentiator has been the introduction of the Quality Score Index (QSI), a first-of-its-kind scientific performance framework that establishes measurable and uniform benchmarks across laboratories. The framework evaluates performance across multiple scientific and operational parameters, including audit outcomes, external quality assurance performance, compliance indicators, complaint resolution timelines, and academic engagement metrics, helping drive continuous improvement across the network.

Building on this foundation of measurable quality, Metropolis has developed advanced scientific and digital initiatives, including an AI-assisted Directory of Services and Tests and ‘Next Best Action’ clinical intelligence tools that support evidence-based diagnostic interpretation and clinical decision-making. The framework is further supported by annual audits aligned with ISO 15189, CLSI, and CAP guidelines, along with Internal Quality Control (IQC) analytics, digital audit management systems, and real-time intelligence dashboards. Together, these enable proactive identification of quality gaps, faster corrective actions, and continuous improvement across the network. Collectively, these initiatives translate into greater diagnostic confidence, improved consistency, and more informed clinical decision-making for patients and healthcare providers.

Commenting on the recognition, Mr. Surendran Chemmenkotil, Managing Director, Metropolis Healthcare Limited, said, "Quality in diagnostics directly impacts clinical decision-making and patient outcomes, making it one of the most critical responsibilities in healthcare. This recognition validates our long-standing commitment to building a deeply integrated and standardised ecosystem across our network. As we continue to expand our footprint, our focus remains on ensuring that every patient, irrespective of location, receives the same high standard of diagnostic accuracy, reliability, and scientific excellence. Initiatives such as the Quality Score Index and Pre-Analytical Compliance (PAC) framework reflect our commitment to making excellence measurable, transparent, and continuously improvable."

Dr. Kirti Chadha, Chief Scientific and Innovation Officer, Metropolis Healthcare Limited, added: "At Metropolis, quality is not viewed as a checkpoint, but as a continuously evolving scientific discipline embedded into every stage of laboratory operations. Our integrated quality intelligence framework combines rigorous accreditation standards, structured governance, advanced analytics, internal quality controls, EQAS (External Quality Assurance Scheme) monitoring, and continuous skilling of laboratory professionals. This recognition reflects the collective commitment of our scientific and operational teams towards delivering consistent, reliable, and clinically meaningful diagnostics."

Supported by 100% participation in External Quality Assurance Programmes (EQAS/PT), specialist-led medical governance, and over four decades of diagnostic expertise, Metropolis remains committed to advancing diagnostic excellence, strengthening patient trust, and improving healthcare outcomes through scientific innovation and operational discipline.

Mumbai (Maharashtra) [India], June 04: Medisage, the doctor engagement platform with over eight lakh registered physicians across India, has announced that Medisage AI has crossed 20,000 active users.

Nobody ran a campaign to get here. Doctors tried it, found it worth trusting, and mentioned it to peers in the community. In medicine, that is how real credibility moves. It does not trend. It spreads person to person, slowly, because the stakes are too high for anything less.

Why Doctors Stopped Trusting General AI Tools

Every doctor who has spent time with a general purpose AI chatbot has a version of the same story. The first few answers feel solid. Then something slips. A drug name appears that Indian pharmacies stopped stocking years ago. A dosage recommendation comes through that was written for a US market. A treatment suggestion sounds authoritative and turns out to be outdated in ways that would not be obvious unless the doctor already knew better. The technology is not broken. It was just never designed for this.

Building something for everyone is not the same as building something for a doctor sitting with a difficult patient at the end of a long day. Those are two entirely different problems. The tools that try to serve both end up doing neither particularly well, and in a clinical setting that gap is not just frustrating. It is dangerous.

Medisage AI did not start as something else and get redirected toward healthcare. It was designed specifically for how Indian doctors work, from the beginning. Every clinical answer is tied to peer reviewed research or validated guidelines. Drug information is matched against what is genuinely available in Indian pharmacies. A specialist at a large hospital in Mumbai and a general physician running a single handed practice somewhere in Uttar Pradesh are not working under the same conditions. The platform was built with that reality already factored in.

Reading the Numbers Honestly

Active daily users are up three times from last year. More than two thirds of people using the platform open it several times a week, not when they remember to, but as part of how they move through their working day. Over eighty percent say their confidence in handling difficult cases has genuinely improved.

Numbers from the early days of a product launch always look good because curiosity does that. These numbers are from well after the novelty wore off, from doctors who kept coming back because the tool kept being useful.

Something else worth noting is where the growth happened. A significant portion of new users came from smaller cities and towns, places where there might be one doctor serving a community that would benefit from five. In those settings, having a reliable clinical resource is not a convenience. It fills a gap that would otherwise stay empty.

How Doctors Are Actually Using It

The clinical decision support feature gets used when a case does not fit neatly into what a doctor already knows. It brings up differential diagnoses and treatment options that are grounded in current evidence and is indexed by years of case discussion MediSage has been running on its platform.

The drug intelligence engine matters in a country where availability varies so much. It checks dosing and interactions against what is actually on shelves here, which saves time and removes a real source of clinical risk.

Case based learning works because it uses real situations from practicing specialists, not theoretical scenarios from a textbook. Doctors are not reading about medicine in the abstract.

Research papers are hard to use in the middle of a busy clinic. The medical literature tool takes that research and makes it genuinely accessible at the moment a doctor needs it. Specialty modules cover cardiology, diabetology, pulmonology, oncology and others in real depth. Continuing medical education credits are built into the platform so professional development does not require blocking out separate time.

Every answer the platform gives comes with a traceable source. That is not about covering liability. It is about the basic expectation that a doctor should always be able to see the reasoning behind a recommendation before acting on it.

What This Country Actually Needs

India, with a population of 1.4 billion, lacks specialists to connect with everyone. The burden of non-communicable diseases such as diabetes, heart diseases, hypertension, cancers, etc., is growing and the distribution of medical manpower in the country hasn’t kept up with that growth. Training more doctors is part of the answer, but not a solution that helps anyone seeking care in the near term. 

The policy response has been building for years. The National Digital Health Mission, NITI Aayog’s work on AI in healthcare, the Ayushman Bharat Digital Mission, the ICMR framework for AI based clinical tools. These are not separate initiatives running in parallel. They reflect a shared understanding that reaching every patient in this country requires technology to carry part of the weight.

Medisage AI was built to contribute to that. Not as an add on, but as something designed from the start to function responsibly within that larger effort.

The One Thing That Never Changes

Everything the platform does sits on top of a single non negotiable idea. The doctor decides. The AI informs. It does not prescribe, it does not override, it does not replace judgment.

This is not language added at the end to manage expectations. It is the reason certain features were built one way and not another. The platform finds information, checks interactions, shows what the evidence supports, and then it stops. The clinical decision belongs to the doctor. It always has and the platform was built to keep it that way.

Doctors Who Have Used It

Dr. Muddhu Surendra Nehru

“I am one of the few doctors in the world who has worked more than sixteen hours a day for more than six months to build and develop on this platform and I found it extremely useful. Medisage AI is a powerful tool of education. It leverages AI to help doctors create high quality presentations and brings together the best available medical literature and evidence based suggestions. The medicinal field is changing. We are experiencing a series of paradigm shifts in the understanding and treatment of diseases. Medisage AI enables doctors to incorporate all of these advancements directly into their clinical practice. I would like to request all doctors to use this platform and develop their true potential.” 

Dr. Anil Gomber 

“Artificial intelligence must be learned and understood, especially in the field of medicine, and Medisage AI does precisely that. We have put in a great deal of work, delivered a number of lectures, and this journey with medicine has been deeply rewarding. AI is not something to be taken lightly. It is a serious instrument and Medisage AI is built with that seriousness. I wish the entire team great success and I say with full confidence that this is an initiative worth being part of.”

From the Leadership

Anurag Dhingra, Co-founder of Medisage.

“We built Medisage AI for the doctor who looks at AI to offer real assistance at critical moments and will not settle for vague responses. What I am most proud of is that MediSage AI offers a depth of clinical intelligence built using years of proprietary data on our platform. The intuitive interface we built after listening carefully to feedback from thousands of practitioners across the country, reduces friction, surfaces the right information at the right moment and feels natural inside a clinical workflow. Good AI should feel like an extension of the doctor’s own thinking. Not an interruption. Not a tool they have to manage. Just a smart friend you can rely on. That is what we have built.”

About Medisage

Medisage connects over 800,000 medical professionals across India with clinical knowledge, peer learning and AI powered decision support. Medisage AI is its flagship product, built specifically for Indian doctors, grounded in evidence and shaped around how medicine is practiced in this country.

The Creation of Adam – Inspired by Michelangelo

Mumbai (Maharashtra) [India], June 04: At 82, Mr. Farokh R. Messman – entrepreneur and former owner of the celebrated bakery brand Theobroma, is embarking on a new journey by organising ‘Inspired by the Masters’, a unique exhibition of paintings celebrating the beauty and enduring legacy of great art created by some of the world’s most revered master artists. The exhibition will be held from 5th June to 11th June, 2026, at Kaladalan Gallery inside P.L. Deshpande Maharashtra Kala Academy in Prabhadevi, Mumbai.

The exhibition will feature approximately 50-60 paintings created by skilled Indian artists, drawing inspiration from some of the most admired artistic traditions and celebrated masterworks from around the world. Alongside tributes to iconic styles associated with legendary painters such as Pablo Picasso, M.F. Husain, Raja Ravi Varma, Leonardo da Vinci, Claude Monet, Amrita Sher-Gil, and several other renowned masters, the exhibition will also include portraits, landscapes, still life studies, religious themes, wildlife, contemporary works, and more.

Importantly, the exhibition openly and transparently presents these works as recreations and artistic tributes, celebrating artistic heritage and appreciation.

“For centuries across the world, art enthusiasts have admired reproductions, interpretations, and studies inspired by the great masters,” shares Mr. Messman. “The idea is simple… many people dearly love art, but very few can ever dream of owning or even closely experiencing works inspired by these traditions. We wanted to create a space where art could feel emotionally accessible, welcoming, and available at a very affordable price.”

Alongside the celebration of great art, the exhibition also hopes to shine a light on talented yet underrepresented artists, many of whom have limited access to major gallery platforms. “These artists possess remarkable skill and dedication,” Mr. Messman adds. “This exhibition is equally about giving them visibility, encouragement, and an appreciative audience.”

The showcased works are expected to be priced in an affordable range intended to appeal to middle-class art enthusiasts seeking meaningful art for their homes and personal spaces.

Interestingly, the exhibition also introduces what the organisers describe as a first-of-its-kind reassurance offer in the art space globally. Buyers will be offered an assurance that after five years, the organisers will either assist in reselling the artwork at a minimum of double the purchase value or refund the entire original price, while allowing the buyer to retain ownership of the artwork. Mr. Messman shares that this commitment will be supported by a bank guarantee, reflecting the organisers’ confidence in the growing appreciation for art-inspired works.

Mr. Messman emphasises that the initiative is rooted in admiration, transparency, and accessibility. “Nothing can ever replace the value, history, or aura of an original masterpiece,” he imparts. “If anything, exhibitions like these may encourage more people to learn about art history, discover great painters, and develop a deeper appreciation for original art itself, and satisfy one’s desire to own a wonderful piece of art, almost free of cost!”

‘Inspired by the Masters’ will be on display at Kaladalan Gallery inside P.L. Deshpande Maharashtra Kala Academy, Prabhadevi from 5th June to 11th June, 2026. Timings: Daily 11 am to 7 pm.

New Delhi [India], June 04: The Goodness Foundation proudly launched Food42 – 2026, a major nationwide campaign to combat hunger, uniting prominent voices under a single banner for a greater cause—achieving Zero Hunger (UN Sustainable Development Goal 2). The grand launch event took place yesterday at Periampet, Chennai.

The event was graced by celebrated Chief Guest, Tamil cinema actor Mr. Santhosh Prathap, whose presence brought tremendous energy and inspiration to the campaign’s mission. Joining him as the Guest of Honour was Mr. Joe Michael, a well-known social activist, entrepreneur, and prominent Bigg Boss reviewer, who delivered a thought-provoking address on social responsibility, media influence, and collective action.

Founder of the Goodness Foundation, Mr. Paul Raja, delivered a deeply moving keynote address, framing the Food42 forum as a critical space for collaboration. “This forum brings like-minded people together to share resources and work collectively for the greater cause of a hunger-free world,” Mr. Paul Raja stated. “We must keep spreading awareness about the stark realities of hunger. Keep speaking up until our voice reaches the ends of the earth.”

Drawing a powerful historical parallel, he highlighted the impact of young voices by pointing to global climate activist Greta Thunberg. “In 2018, at just 15 years old, Greta Thunberg shook the world and ignited a global climate movement. That very same year, we started ‘Food for Two.’ I encourage our children and youth to take inspiration from this—you are never too young to impact the world and make it a better place for future generations.”

Addressing the global scale of the crisis, Mr. Paul Raja shared a chilling statistic: 673 million people still experience hunger across the world today.“The tragedy is not that we don’t have enough food,” he emphasized. “Global food production is more than enough to feed everyone on this planet. Yet, one-third of all food produced goes to waste, allowing hunger to thrive. Let us share our food with those who need it, and encourage everyone around us to do the same, until we create a truly hunger-free world.”

Chief Guest Mr. Santhosh Prathap delivered an incredibly heartfelt and personal speech, striking a chord with everyone present by opening up about his own journey. He candidly shared his early struggles in the film industry, recalling the days when he personally experienced hunger and uncertainty at the start of his acting career. “Hunger isn’t just a statistic to me; I know what it feels like to wonder where your next meal is coming from,” Mr. Santhosh Prathap shared. “We must all become deeply mindful of how much we consume. Whatever we have that is beyond our actual needs, it is our responsibility to share it. Giving isn’t an act of charity—it’s a basic human duty.”

The event, seamlessly hosted by emcee Lydia Miracles, began with a warm welcome address by Mrs. Vasanthy Gilbert, Director of the Goodness Foundation. She introduced the organization’s ongoing, holistic work spanning education, healthcare, livelihood, and nutrition through its various grassroots initiatives.

In a moving moment that officially inaugurated the Food42 – 2026 campaign, the chief guests and dignitaries stood together to serve fresh meals to children.

At the conclusion of the program, the campaign’s vision was immediately set into motion. Food packets were distributed to hundreds of children at the venue, while dedicated Goodness Foundation volunteers simultaneously took to the streets around the Egmore area to distribute meals to the homeless and underprivileged—turning the day’s words into immediate community action.

The launch concluded with a renewed collective commitment to scale the campaign into schools, corporate spaces, and local neighborhoods—one plate at a time.

About Goodness Foundation

The Goodness Foundation is a non-profit organization dedicated to social transformation through sustainable development goals. By focusing on education, health, empowerment, and nutrition, the foundation strives to uplift underprivileged communities and build a resilient, hunger-free society.

In Reddit Reputation Dominance, Rajdeep Singh Chauhan shares proven frameworks and tools to help brands shape their Reddit narrative before the platform shapes it for them.

Dubai [UAE], June 4: For years, businesses have invested heavily in search engine optimization, public relations, and online reputation management to influence how they appear on Google. However, according to Reputation Management Strategist and author Rajdeep Singh Chauhan, the rules of digital reputation are changing rapidly—and many brands have yet to realize it.

With the launch of his new book, Reddit Reputation Dominance

, Chauhan argues that Reddit has quietly evolved into one of the most influential reputation platforms on the internet, impacting not only consumer trust but also how brands are interpreted by AI-powered search systems.

As online users increasingly seek authentic experiences over polished marketing messages, community-driven discussions on Reddit are becoming a critical source of information for customers, investors, job seekers, journalists, and even artificial intelligence platforms generating search answers.

“Trust is built in public and lost in Search,” says Rajdeep Singh Chauhan, Founder of BigBuzz Media and Pulse Business.

The book arrives at a time when many marketers are noticing a significant shift in search behavior. Users are increasingly adding the word “Reddit” to their Google searches to access genuine opinions, reviews, experiences, and discussions before making purchasing decisions.

According to Chauhan, this trend is creating a new challenge for businesses.

“Reddit has become one of the most powerful reputation battlegrounds because people trust community conversations more than polished marketing messages. Brands that ignore Reddit today may discover tomorrow that their narrative is already being shaped without them,” he explains.

Unlike traditional social media platforms, where brands largely control their messaging, Reddit thrives on user-generated discussions and community moderation. A single thread discussing a company’s products, customer service, leadership decisions, or workplace culture can attract thousands of views and continue influencing public perception for years.

More importantly, Reddit conversations increasingly appear in Google search results and are frequently referenced in AI-generated responses, creating a direct connection between community sentiment and brand visibility.

This shift has prompted Chauhan to focus his work on what he calls Reputation Intelligence, a framework designed to help organizations monitor, understand, and influence how digital narratives evolve across search engines, review platforms, community networks, social media, and AI-driven ecosystems.

Positioned as a practical playbook for founders, CEOs, marketing leaders, reputation managers, and agency owners, Reddit Reputation Dominance explores how businesses can identify reputation risks before they escalate into larger trust issues.

The book covers topics including Reddit Reputation Management, Search Narrative Control, AI Search Visibility, Digital Trust Building, Online Reputation Risk Assessment, Community Sentiment Analysis, Executive Reputation Protection, Crisis Reputation Response Strategies, and Reputation Monitoring Frameworks.

Rather than focusing solely on search rankings, the book encourages organizations to understand how conversations, opinions, reviews, and community discussions collectively shape modern reputation.

With more than 18 years of experience across marketing strategy, brand building, digital marketing, and reputation management, Rajdeep Singh Chauhan has spent recent years developing frameworks that address emerging challenges in the AI-driven information landscape.

Among his notable concepts are Reputation Domination Score (RDS), Reputation Intelligence, Search Narrative Control, AI Visibility Frameworks, and Digital Trust Positioning Models.

Through BigBuzz Media and Pulse Business, Chauhan works with founders, executives, entrepreneurs, agencies, and organizations seeking to strengthen their digital presence and mitigate online reputation risks.

As AI-powered search experiences continue to evolve and consumers increasingly rely on peer-generated information, Chauhan believes reputation management will move beyond traditional SEO and media coverage.

“The next generation of reputation management will not be won through rankings alone. It will be won through trust, community perception, digital credibility, and narrative control across every platform where conversations happen,” he says.

With the release of Reddit Reputation Dominance, Rajdeep Singh Chauhan aims to help business leaders understand a reality that many organizations are only beginning to recognize: in the age of AI and community-driven discovery, reputation is no longer controlled by what brands publish—it is shaped by what people discuss.

New Delhi [India], June 04: Science fiction enthusiasts and anime lovers are in for an immersive ride with The Galactors, the latest offering by Pune-based author Mayank Sinha. At 29, Mayank balances his professional life as an Automation Developer with a deep passion for storytelling, speculative fiction, and imaginative world-building.

With a background in B.Tech Computer Science, Mayank has always been fascinated by futuristic concepts, alternate realities, and human emotions woven into extraordinary situations. His love for anime and sci-fi has significantly shaped his creative voice, allowing him to craft stories that are both engaging and thought-provoking.

Speaking about his journey as an author, Mayank shares that writing has been a part of his life since his college days. What began as short stories gradually transformed into full-fledged books once he started his professional career. The Galactors marks his fourth published work, reflecting years of creative exploration and dedication to storytelling.

The inspiration behind the novel came from an unexpectedly humorous real-life moment. Mayank recalls accidentally falling off his bed while turning in his sleep, and in that instant, a thought struck him — what if someone woke up and everything around them had suddenly changed? That intriguing question eventually became the foundation of The Galactors.

The book follows Blake, a protagonist whose entire existence is abruptly thrown into chaos. As Blake navigates confusion, uncertainty, and a transformed reality, readers are taken on a gripping journey of self-discovery, resilience, and existential questioning. Through twists, emotional depth, and imaginative storytelling, the novel encourages readers to reflect on choices, identity, and the possibilities hidden within alternate paths.

Mayank hopes readers will finish the book with a sense of awe and satisfaction, feeling as though they have traveled alongside Blake through every challenge and revelation. He also wants the story to leave readers pondering an intriguing question: What could have happened if things had gone differently?

Outside of writing, Mayank enjoys creative hobbies such as embroidery and resin casting, showcasing another artistic side beyond literature and technology.

Interestingly, despite The Galactors being his fourth book, Mayank has decided to take a temporary pause from writing to focus more on personal life and growth. However, his existing works continue to resonate with readers who enjoy science fiction infused with emotional depth and imagination.

For aspiring writers, Mayank offers honest and practical advice: avoid sharing your ideas too early. According to him, negativity from others can sometimes discourage creativity before it fully develops. He encourages writers to trust their instincts, stay patient, and continue working quietly until their manuscript is complete.

The Galactors is now available on Amazon and promises readers a compelling blend of science fiction, introspection, and adventure.

New Delhi [India], June 04: BlueRose Publishers is pleased to announce the release of The Gray Does Matter by Parvathy Rajeev, a thought-provoking and introspective literary work that explores the complexities of human existence, consciousness, and the psychological dimensions of everyday life.

Hailing from Poonjar in Kottayam district, Kerala, Parvathy Rajeev is an emerging literary voice with a deep academic and creative foundation. She has completed her B.A. and M.A. in Literature from Amrita University and is currently pursuing her PhD in English Literature. Her academic journey reflects her enduring passion for language, ideas, and the exploration of the human condition.

Parvathy has previously published three books in poetry, yet this latest work marks a significant milestone in her literary journey. Taking nearly three years to complete, the book is a result of dedication, reflection, and emotional investment. According to the author, she has poured her heart and soul into every page, ensuring that the themes and ideas resonate deeply with her own worldview.

Parvathy’s love for writing began in childhood, where she frequently excelled in literary competitions during her school and college years. Over time, her writing matured into a deeper exploration of meaning, identity, and consciousness. She intentionally took years to craft this book, wanting it to possess a certain depth that connects mind and matter in meaningful ways.

At its core, The Gray Does Matter examines the vastness of the human mind and the endless stream of thoughts that shape our experiences. The author believes that within ourselves lie answers to many of life’s dilemmas, and the book encourages readers to turn inward in search of clarity.

The work delves into humane existence and what it takes to understand the various psychological angles that influence daily life and human interaction. Through its reflective and layered narrative, the book challenges readers to think, rethink, and question many assumptions they may have long held.

Parvathy Rajeev also shares her intention to continue writing, particularly on the themes of the human psyche and its limitations. She hopes to further her research and literary exploration of complex human concepts in future works.

For aspiring writers and readers alike, her message is both simple and profound: “All they should do is listen to themselves. That is the ultimate idea. Nothing is beyond our conscience, and it is vast as an ocean.”

The Gray Does Matter is now available on Amazon for readers who seek a deeper understanding of the mind, consciousness, and the shades of life that often go unnoticed.

Mumbai (Maharashtra) [India], June 03: Buying car insurance online is convenient, but it also requires accurate personal and vehicle-related information. Even a minor error in the policy document can create issues during renewals, endorsements, or claim processing. That is why it is important to review the policy details carefully once the document is issued.

Below is the online correction process you can follow to update incorrect details in your car insurance policy and avoid unnecessary delays later.

Contact the Insurance Company

The first step is to inform the company through an official channel. You can use the customer care number, website, mobile app, email support, or nearest service branch, based on the options provided by the insurer.

This helps you start the update process safely and traceably. Keep your car insurance cover number, registered mobile number, and vehicle registration data ready before contacting the support team.

Explain the error clearly and ask whether the correction needs an online submission, email, form, or written application. Also, confirm whether the provider will issue an endorsement or a revised copy after the update, so your records remain complete and easy to refer to later.

Submit Correction Request

After they confirm the details, submit a clear update application. Mention the incorrect detail, the correct detail, and the reason for the change. Use short and direct sentences so the application is easy to review. Avoid sending incomplete information, as it may require further clarification later.

Before submitting the application, check the spelling, numbers, and document again. An update request for a car insurance policy should match the Registration Certificate (RC) and other valid records, depending on the type of change requested.

If you are using an online form, review every field before final submission and save the request reference for your records. This step also keeps the request formally recorded.

Upload Supporting Documents

The company may require supporting documents to verify the change. These records help confirm that the requested correction is genuine and matches the policyholder’s vehicle or personal details. Clear documents also reduce confusion during review and help the provider handle the application more smoothly.

Upload clear and readable copies only through the approved channel. These may include the Registration Certificate (RC), identity proof, address proof, previous coverage, invoice, or any other record requested by the company. Keep the acknowledgement safely for later reference, as it can help if you need to follow up.

Pay Additional Charges if Applicable

Some insurers may charge a small service fee for processing certain policy corrections or issuing an updated record. This depends on the insurer’s process and the type of update requested.

This can happen when the correction affects vehicle details, coverage, insured declared value, or any information linked to risk assessment. They will review the request and inform you if a payment is needed.

If payment is required, ask for the reason and the process to be shared clearly. Use only verified payment links or official payment modes. The payable amount, if any, may depend on coverage terms, underwriting guidelines, and the type of correction. Save the payment receipt with your records, along with the updated plan.

Download Updated Copy

Once the insurer approves and processes the correction, download the updated copy from the official website, the mobile app, or the email the insurer shared. Do not depend only on verbal confirmation. A revised document gives you a clear record of the corrections made and supports smoother future communication.

Read the updated document carefully before storing it. Check the corrected field, plan period, vehicle details, contact information, and coverage entries. Save the revised copy digitally and keep a printed copy with your vehicle papers when needed. Also, replace older copies to avoid using an outdated document during renewal or claim support.

Conclusion

Correcting an error in a policy document is a careful but manageable process when you act early and follow the insurer’s official steps. Check your car insurance soon after purchase or renewal, and report any mismatch without delay.

Share accurate details, submit valid documents, make any required payment through approved channels, and keep the updated copy safely. A correct record helps make future renewals, service requests, and claim communication more organized.

The festival will give special attention to India–Nepal civilisational connections.

Mumbai (Maharashtra) [India], June 03: From Childhood Dream to Reality: Actor Anusheel Chakrabarty Brings Home ₹1.23 Crore BMW Z4 M40i Pure Impulse Edition

Mumbai: Dreams often begin as fleeting childhood fantasies, inspired by movies, iconic characters, and unforgettable moments on screen. For actor Anusheel Chakrabarty, one such dream has now become a reality as he proudly welcomed a brand-new BMW Z4 M40i Pure Impulse Edition, valued at approximately ₹1.23 crore, to his garage.

However, this isn’t just another celebrity luxury car purchase. For Chakrabarty, the BMW Z4 symbolizes years of aspiration, determination, and the fulfillment of a dream nurtured since childhood.

Inspired by James Bond and Bollywood Classics

The actor revealed that his fascination with sports cars began while watching legendary James Bond films and Hrithik Roshan’s blockbuster debut, Kaho Naa… Pyaar Hai. The stylish convertibles, scenic road trips, and glamorous lifestyle showcased on screen left a lasting impression on him during his formative years.

Today, that very dream sits in his driveway in the form of the stunning BMW Z4 roadster.

To make the purchase even more special, Chakrabarty secured a VIP registration number, adding a personalized touch and enhancing the exclusivity of his luxury sports car.

Sanremo Green BMW Z4 Turns Heads

Finished in the eye-catching Sanremo Green Metallic shade, the BMW Z4 M40i Pure Impulse Edition exudes elegance and performance. The roadster features a low-slung profile, muscular bonnet, aggressive M Sport styling package, and a sleek black soft-top roof.

The unique color choice perfectly complements the actor’s refined taste and passion for luxury automobiles.

An Emotional Delivery Celebration in Mumbai

The handover ceremony at BMW Infinity Cars, Worli, Mumbai, turned into an unforgettable family celebration. Rather than a routine vehicle delivery, the occasion became a deeply emotional milestone for the actor.

Surrounded by family and close friends, Chakrabarty marked the special day with champagne celebrations, cake cutting, photographs, and heartfelt moments. One of the most touching highlights was sharing the achievement with his mother, Advocate Sheela Chakraborty, who has been an important part of his journey.

Sources close to the actor shared that he became emotional while reflecting on the years of hard work and perseverance that led to this achievement.

BMW Infinity Adds a Personal Touch

Adding to the memorable experience, the BMW Infinity team surprised the actor with a custom-made sketch featuring him alongside his new BMW Z4. The personalized artwork quickly became one of the most talked-about aspects of the delivery ceremony, reflecting the dealership’s thoughtful gesture.

BMW Z4 M40i Pure Impulse Edition: Performance Meets Luxury

Beyond its striking appearance, the BMW Z4 M40i Pure Impulse Edition is a true performance machine.

Powered by BMW’s renowned 3.0-litre inline six-cylinder turbocharged petrol engine, the roadster delivers an impressive:

• 340 hp power output
• 500 Nm torque
• 0-100 km/h acceleration in just 4.5 seconds

The convertible combines exhilarating performance with everyday luxury, making it one of the most desirable sports cars in India.

Premium Features Include:

• Harman Kardon Surround Sound System
• Ambient Interior Lighting
• Head-Up Display
• Wireless Apple CarPlay
• Electrically Adjustable Memory Seats
• Fully Digital BMW Cockpit
• Advanced Driver Assistance Systems
• Premium Connectivity and Infotainment Features
• More Than a Luxury Car—A Dream Fulfilled

While fans and automobile enthusiasts celebrated the actor’s latest luxury acquisition across social media, what truly resonated was the emotional story behind it.

For Anusheel Chakrabarty, the BMW Z4 is more than a high-performance convertible or a status symbol. It represents a lifelong ambition finally realized—a reminder that childhood dreams can indeed become reality through dedication and persistence.

In a world often focused on luxury and success, this milestone serves as a powerful reminder that some purchases are not about prestige, but about fulfilling promises made to the younger version of ourselves.

And that is what makes this BMW Z4 delivery story truly special.

New Delhi [India], June 3: Indian entrepreneur Aman Khan, founder of Delhi nightclub KNOT, has announced the release of a cinematic short film titled “The Chapter Ending” and a four-city luxury hospitality comeback built around two brands: KNOT Noir and Millionaire Mansion.

The announcement marks the formal close of KNOT’s original Delhi chapter at Eros Hotel, Nehru Place, while setting out Khan’s next phase across Goa, Pune, Mumbai and Bangalore by 2030. The Delhi market, he says, is not being abandoned. It is being paused until the new portfolio is strong enough for a return on firmer terms.

The film, produced by Third Eye Productions, is now planned for release across Aman Khan’s official Instagram presence and the KNOT Delhi page. It is designed as a cinematic closing statement rather than a conventional nightclub aftermovie. The story follows a five-part emotional arc: rise, pressure, forced closure, loss and rebirth.

KNOT opened in 2022, when Khan was twenty years old. He entered Delhi’s established nightlife market without a traditional industry background, family backing in hospitality, or an existing circuit of power. By the founder’s account, the club became profitable early and quickly built a reputation for a premium audience, music-led programming, luxury energy, and a visual identity associated with the line “Welcome to the shadows.”

For guests, KNOT was a venue built around celebration. For Khan, it became proof that a young outsider could build a serious nightlife brand in one of India’s most competitive and tightly networked markets.

Behind the rise, however, the story became more complex. Khan says the pressures of operating a high-volume nightclub arrived alongside difficult personal and business realities. He is also choosing to speak publicly for the first time about navigating bipolar disorder during the years he built and ran KNOT.

“There were phases where I could not fully show up the way a founder should,” Khan said. “Manic periods, depressive periods, weeks of instability – those moments affected judgment. I brought partners in because the business needed presence and structure. Some decisions helped. Some became part of the problem. I am speaking about it because many founders suffer silently while the outside world only sees growth.

Khan does not name individuals in the film or in the public release. He describes the closure as the result of a wider sequence of partnership conflict, legal pressure, regulatory scrutiny, and external stress around Delhi’s late-night nightlife environment. According to Khan, a cluster of venues in the same district faced shutdown pressure during the same period, with KNOT remaining closed for roughly eight months while rent, salaries, and operating obligations continued.

“The hardest part was not only the closure,” Khan said. “It was carrying the weight of a brand that was alive in people’s memory but locked in reality. I kept paying, kept waiting, kept hoping, and then I understood that the chapter needed an ending.”

That ending is now being framed as the beginning of a larger hospitality plan.

KNOT Noir, the first new brand in the rollout, is being developed for North Goa. It is positioned as a darker, more cinematic evolution of the original KNOT identity – built for a destination market with deeper experiential potential, stronger design language, and a more immersive brand world.

Millionaire Mansion, a second luxury nightlife brand under Bile Hospitality, is planned for Pune next year. The concept is being designed for a distinct audience profile, with a separate visual tone and hospitality positioning from KNOT Noir. Mumbai and Bangalore launches are planned to follow before 2030.

 “I am taking a pause from Delhi. I am not leaving it,” Khan said. “After Goa, Pune, Mumbai and Bangalore are built, the market will see me back. The chapter that ended at Eros was not the brand. It was that round.”

The expansion will sit under Bile Hospitality Pvt. Ltd., while Third Eye Productions will continue to shape the creative storytelling, campaign architecture, and visual identity around the brands. Khan also operates Third Eye Productions as a creative production and brand-building agency and is developing DOZBAE, a luxury streetwear label with global ambitions.

The public-facing communication around the release will point audiences to amankhan.ai for the founder profile and thirdeyeproductions.in for the production company behind the film. Khan says this structure is deliberate: the story should not live only as a nightclub post, but as part of a broader founder record, connecting hospitality, film, fashion, production, and future city launches under one long-term creative-business ecosystem. That record, he says, matters because memory is part of brand equity too.

The Chapter Ending film has been created as a Third Eye Productions original asset, with concept, story, and production credited to the agency. The original score is by Priyanshu Verma, with post-production handled by Edition Studio, led by Shobhit Gour. A full-length music video expanding the narrative is expected to follow the short film release.

The film avoids literal accusation and instead uses cinematic implication to communicate the emotional history of KNOT. The objective, Khan says, is not to reopen old wounds publicly but to give the brand’s first chapter a proper ending before the next one begins.

“KNOT was never just a club for me,” he said. “It was the first proof that I could build something from nothing. What happened hurt, but it also gave me clarity. The next chapter has to be bigger, cleaner, and more controlled.”

For the hospitality market, the announcement positions Khan as a young founder attempting to rebuild beyond a single venue and into a multi-city nightlife portfolio before turning thirty. For his audience, the release of the film marks something more personal: the end of a Delhi story that carried ambition, pressure, illness, conflict, loss, and survival in equal measure.

Khan says the next few years will define whether the pain of KNOT’s closure becomes only a memory or the foundation of a wider national brand.

“Some chapters do not end because the dream failed,” he said. “They end because the founder has to return stronger.”

Shikshagraha, the people-led movement to improve public schools across India, has announced that nominations for the 3rd edition of the Shikshagraha Awards, instituted by The Shibulal Family Philanthropic Initiatives, are now open until July 31, 2026. The awards recognise educators, community leaders, and grassroots changemakers who are reshaping public education from the inside out.

“India's public education system is the single greatest lever we have for an equal society. For too long, the educators doing extraordinary work in the most difficult conditions have gone unrecognised. When we celebrate these leaders, we inspire a thousand more to step forward,” SD Shibulal, Co-founder, Shibulal Family Philanthropic Initiative.

Now in its third year, the awards have already proved that recognition is not symbolic; it is a catalyst. Past winners have used the financial support, credibility, and network that come with the award to scale their work in measurable ways.

In Bihar, Kumari Guddi expanded her work beyond her school to create a community helpdesk, a scholarship fund, and a supply store for girls in neighbouring communities, now supporting 50 to 100 children across multiple schools. 

In Andhra Pradesh, Nellore Subhrahmanyam used the award to fulfil a two-decade-old dream: a mobile science bus that has now reached nearly 50 rural schools, up from 20. His work was featured in the March 2026 edition of Samagra Shiksha, and a documentary team from Pune is set to film his journey. 

In Madhya Pradesh, Muskan Ahirwar grew her community library Kitaabi Masti from 2,000 to 3,500 books and watched children begin showing up on their own, without being pushed.

In Meghalaya, Batskhem Thabah saw media coverage of his award inspire teachers across the state to come forward with their own ideas.

“For nearly 20 years, I spent much of my own salary on this work. The award reassured my family and my community that this work was meaningful,” Nellore Subhrahmanyam, Shikshagraha Award Winner, Andhra Pradesh.

"Every child deserves the chance to step into the future with confidence and dignity, and across India, there are communities working every day to make that possible. Across two editions of the Shikshagraha Awards, we have seen proof that the solutions already exist — in teachers, community leaders, and youth who refuse to accept that some children deserve less. When we recognise these leaders, we are saying clearly that every child who walks out of a government school must walk out ready — with the foundations to learn, the confidence to lead, and the skills to navigate a world being reshaped by technology and climate," Khushboo Awasthi, Co-Weaver of the Shikshagraha movement & Co-Founder of ShikshaLokam.

Winners of the Shikshagraha Award receive financial support, national media coverage, access to a network of changemakers and civil society organisations, and the institutional credibility that opens doors to government departments, NGOs, and funders. The 2027 awards will be presented at InvokED, an annual global dialogue on education leadership where experts, educators, and changemakers come together to shape the movement towards education equity. The next InvokED is scheduled for February 26 & 27, 2027.

Nominations are open to educators, school leaders, community volunteers, and anyone driving meaningful change within India's public education system, across all geographies, disciplines, and types of work.

Nominate by July 31, 2026, at: shikshagraha.org/awards.

About Shikshagraha
Shikshagraha is a people-powered movement to improve all 1 million public schools in India, so that every child experiences enriching learning and is ready for the future.

Real change begins with the child at the centre — their learning, confidence, well-being, and aspirations, and with those closest to the child. The movement enables parents, women and youth to demand and support quality education, and equips teachers, school leaders, and officials with tools for micro-improvements towards systemic change.

Currently, 35+ civil society, industry and philanthropic partners in the Shikshagraha network are collectively strengthening 1,17,000+ schools across 33 districts across 14 states & UTs. This includes enabling education leaders to lead need-based school improvements and amplifying women, youth and community participation in the public education system.

Shikshagraha works towards improving schools where the need is greatest, supports leadership on the ground, and shifts the norms that hold education back. Through visible practice change and collective action by communities, governments, civil society, and markets, it reimagines what public schools can and must deliver.

New Delhi [India], June 02: It was a night to remember in Mumbai as the Faiz Mustafa Collective performed their first-ever solo concert to a sold-out audience on Saturday. With hordes of fans, celebrities, and top influencers in attendance, the night marked a milestone for Faiz Mustafa – grandson of the legendary Padma Vibhushan Ustad Ghulam Mustafa Khan Sahab – as he stepped out of festival slots and into a headlining legacy of his own, and won hearts with his singing, versatility, simplicity, and innocence, facets that are rare in the music scene today. 

The two-hour musical journey saw the singer move effortlessly from Sufi to Bollywood, classical to Punjabi folk and Marathi, leaving the crowd singing, swaying, and demanding encore after encore. The show ended with a thunderous standing ovation as Faiz closed with the soulful Aao Balma.

The concert opened with an immersive AV track, setting the tone before Faiz took the stage with a haunting Saiyaara medley. What followed was a meticulously curated setlist across genres and languages, including Dil Pe Zakhm Khaate Hain, Pasoori, Jeev Rangala, Satrangi Re, Humma Humma, Chaiyya Chaiyya, Kun Faya Kun, Suraj Dooba, Batameez Dil, Bachna Ae Haseeno, London Thumakda, Ae Hairate, Tere Bina, Jugni, Dama Dum Mast Kalandar and Aao Balma.

From the classical depth of Sason Ki Mala to the mass frenzy of Jhoome Jo Pathan and the spiritual high of Kun Faya Kun – Faiz proved why he’s one of the most versatile acts in the country today.

Faiz Mustafa says, “Mumbai, aapne aaj dil jeet liya. This was our first solo show – pehli mehfil that was entirely ours — and to see it houseful, it felt like a dream. My grandfather always said ‘sur se bada koi nahin.’ We just tried to be honest to that sur. This is just the beginning.”

Organisers Rabbani Mustafa Khan and Namrata Gupta Khan of NR Talent & Event Management said: “We knew Faiz had a cult following, but the response has been unreal. We had film actors, music directors, creators, and fans who drove down from Pune and Nashik. Faiz Mustafa Collective isn’t just a band – it’s a movement that bridges gharana and Gen Z. The energy at the concert proved that Mumbai was waiting for this.”

Helmed by Faiz Mustafa, grandson of Ustad Ghulam Mustafa Khan Sahab, the Collective blends Hindustani classical roots with Sufi, folk, Bollywood, and contemporary sounds. Known for their dynamic live act and genre-defying arrangements, the group features some of the finest musicians from across India.

Kolkata (West Bengal) [India], June 02: For a long time, residential real estate followed a clear order: location first, then layout, then everything else. Design came in later, refining what already existed.

That sequence is changing.

People are reading spaces differently now. Not in technical language, but in instinct. Why does one home feel open, even at the same size? Why does another feel calmer, more balanced, easier to live in?

This transformation is not simply aesthetic. It reflects a broader shift in how modern buyers perceive quality living.

Exposure has expanded. Through travel, digital platforms, and global design culture, buyers today have seen how homes can be shaped, where architecture, landscape, and planning come together as one cohesive experience. And that memory begins to guide decisions.

“Design is becoming central to modern residential living.”

Global Design Influence Is Reshaping Buyer Expectations

Industry research strongly reflects this transition toward design-led residential demand. The Colliers India Real Estate Outlook 2026 identifies premiumisation as a defining structural force in residential demand, where buyers are actively prioritising quality, design, and liveability. Similarly, the Sotheby’s International Realty 2026 Luxury Outlook, drawing on its Global Agent Survey, notes that 60% of affiliated agents globally report that lifestyle and wellness amenities have become more important in homebuying decisions. Closer to home, Knight Frank India (India Real Estate: Office and Residential Market, Q1 2026) highlights that markets like Kolkata are seeing resilient demand even as broader trends fluctuate, indicating a more discerning buyer, not a hesitant one.

As a result, residential developments today are no longer built around location advantages alone. Increasingly, design itself is becoming a defining differentiator.

Design-Led Thinking Is Influencing Premium Residential Developments

At the top end, projects are no longer built around location alone. Developments like DLF The Camellias in Gurgaon and Three Sixty West in Mumbai are shaped around design as the core product architecture, materials, and lifestyle planning work together. In Kolkata, this shift finds expression in projects like Niavara, where design-led thinking begins at the architectural level itself, shaping how space, light, and movement are experienced within a dense urban context. Buyers exploring luxury flats in Kolkata are increasingly prioritising homes where architecture and liveability work together rather than functioning as separate elements.

Different regions and practices bring different strengths. Architecture defines form and proportion. Planning shapes usability and flow. Landscape determines how spaces are experienced between structures.

Sugam Homes Is Integrating Global Design Expertise Into Urban Living

At Sugam, this approach is reflected through carefully chosen collaborations. For Niavara and Urban Lakes, the architectural vision is developed in association with Ricardo Bofill Taller de Arquitectura (RBTA), the Barcelona-based practice known for large-scale master planning and a strong sense of spatial rhythm and form. Their involvement brings a certain structure and discipline to how built spaces are conceived and experienced.

This is complemented by Sanon & Sen Associates, who serve as consulting architects on projects such as Crown in Salt Lake, where the design approach focuses on balancing contemporary living with environmental sensitivity. Their role becomes critical in ensuring that global design intent is meaningfully adapted to local context, regulatory frameworks, and evolving urban lifestyles.

For homebuyers searching for a flat in Salt Lake Sector 5, Crown reflects this blend of modern residential planning, strategic connectivity, and design-oriented urban living.

For landscape, Sugam collaborates with P Landscape, the Bangkok-based design firm, bringing an international perspective to how open spaces are imagined not as residual areas, but as environments that people actively use, move through, and experience.

Urban Lakes and Niavara Reflect a More Integrated Design Philosophy

This thinking finds expression in projects like Urban Lakes, where water bodies, open greens, and built spaces are planned in relation to each other, allowing the environment to feel cohesive rather than assembled.

For buyers looking for a flat near Konnagar station, Urban Lakes offers an environment where open spaces and community planning are thoughtfully integrated with urban accessibility.

And in Niavara, where vertical living is designed to feel open through three-sided exposure, movement of light, and spatial balance, demonstrating how design can reshape even dense city living.

As demand for luxury flats in Kolkata continues to evolve, projects like Niavara increasingly reflect the growing importance of architecture-led living experiences within the city’s premium housing segment.

Design Today Is About Creating Complete Living Experiences

The role of design in residential real estate has evolved far beyond visual appeal.

Today, buyers are evaluating how seamlessly architecture, planning, landscape, lifestyle amenities, and urban functionality come together within a single residential environment.

Rather than treating design as an afterthought or finishing layer, developers are increasingly recognising it as the foundation of modern liveability.

The growing importance of thoughtful planning, collaborative expertise, and globally informed design philosophies reflects a larger transformation taking place within Indian housing markets.

In today’s residential landscape, the value of a home is no longer defined by individual features viewed separately. It is increasingly defined by how effectively every element works together to create a balanced, functional, and future-ready living experience.

That shift is redefining how homes are imagined, designed, and experienced across modern urban India.

New Delhi [India], June 02: Building a corpus is one thing; using it efficiently is another. A SIP helps you grow your investment steadily, but when it’s time to access your money, a structured approach is key. An SWP converts your accumulated wealth into regular, manageable payouts without disrupting your financial plan.

With Aditya Birla Sun Life Mutual Fund’s investor education initiative, Plan for Life, the transition from SIP to SWP becomes seamless, giving you greater control, flexibility, and peace of mind.

Plan for Life: Combining SIP and SWP

Plan for Life blends two simple tools:

• Systematic Investment Plan (SIP)
• Systematic Withdrawal Plan (SWP)

This combination helps you keep your financial life steady across different phases. It allows you to build a corpus gradually through a SIP investment plan, depending on market movement, and later turn that accumulated wealth through SWP.

Understanding What SIP Component Really Means

For many investors, the first question is: What is an SIP investment? A SIP is a disciplined way to invest periodically. You contribute a fixed amount at consistent intervals, helping you stay committed to long-term financial goals. Through market averaging and compounding, a SIP may help your investment grow steadily, depending on market performance.

And What Happens with the SWP Part?

An SWP lets you withdraw a fixed sum regularly from your existing investment. This allows you to receive structured cash flows while the remaining amount remains invested and may grow, depending on market conditions.

Together, SIP and SWP create a full-circle approach: accumulate during your earning years, withdraw when you need financial support.

How SIP & SWP Work Together Smoothly

Purpose of Each Part

SIP helps you invest in a disciplined manner and build long-term wealth gradually, depending on market behaviour.

SWP helps you withdraw a steady amount without having to redeem your entire investment at once.

Best Time to Use Each

Use a SIP when your focus is on growing your wealth through regular contributions.

Use an SWP when you want a predictable inflow from your accumulated corpus.

How Each Supports You

A SIP helps your investment grow over time through consistency and compounding, depending on market movement. An SWP helps you access your investment in a structured way, offering flexibility in how much and how frequently you withdraw.

Together, they help you accumulate wealth patiently and convert it into financial support when needed.

Why this SIP + SWP Combination in ‘Plan for Life’ Works

Supports Long-Term Wealth Creation

SIP encourages discipline. When you invest regularly, you do not need to worry about market timing. Market ups and downs are averaged out, and over time, this method may support wealth creation, depending on market performance.

Allows You to Customize Your Plan

With Plan for Life, you can choose the SIP amount, the period of contribution, and the type of fund that suits your goal. Later, you can decide how much you want to withdraw and how frequently through SWP. This keeps you fully in control of your money.

Turns Growth into Regular Cash Flow

A SIP investment helps you create your corpus gradually. Once you move to SWP, that corpus supports you by providing periodic withdrawals. This transforms years of disciplined investing into a structured cash flow, depending on market conditions.

Adapts to Every Stage of Life

Whether you are in your early working years, growing a family, or thinking of retirement, SIP and SWP support you through life’s phases.

• Planned milestones like education, weddings, and home purchases
• Unexpected needs like medical emergencies or job changes

This combination works with your life rhythm, ensuring that your financial plan stays flexible and responsive.

Who Can Consider ‘Plan for Life’?

Anyone who wants to save money and use it later systematically may consider this plan.

A SIP suits individuals who want to invest regularly and grow wealth steadily through disciplined habits, depending on market behaviour.

An SWP suits individuals who want structured access to their accumulated corpus without withdrawing everything at once.

Flexibility to Modify Both SIP and SWP

Both SIP and SWP offer flexibility. A SIP can usually be paused, stopped, or modified after the minimum instalments required by the scheme. SWP withdrawal frequency and amounts can also be adjusted as your needs evolve, based on the scheme rules.

Moving Forward with Confidence and Clarity

As part of Aditya Birla Sun Life Mutual Fund’s investor education initiative, ‘Plan for Life’ helps you prepare for life’s changes by ensuring a simple and natural transition from SIP to SWP. You invest steadily through SIP, accumulate your wealth over time, and later use SWP to access it in a steady, organised manner. With this thoughtful structure, Plan for Life helps you stay financially ready for both the expected and the unexpected, no matter how life unfolds.

Kolkata (West Bengal) [India], June 02: Most first-time homebuyers begin their journey with a fixed budget in mind. The initial focus is often on the quoted property price, price per square foot, or attractive launch offers that appear financially manageable at first glance.

However, across India’s residential market, the actual cost of homeownership often extends well beyond the advertised base price.

Industry analyses covering residential transactions between 2024 and 2025 indicate that the final acquisition cost of a home can rise between 15% and 30%, and in certain cases even up to 40%, once additional charges and ownership-related costs are included. These findings are reflected across industry studies, including insights from the 99acres Knowledge Centre (January 2026) and multiple independent property transaction analyses.

As a result, pricing transparency is increasingly becoming one of the most important expectations among first-time homebuyers.

Understanding the Difference Between Base Price and Total Ownership Cost

This is not an isolated observation. It is reflected across industry data. Analysis of residential transactions across India between 2024 and 2025 shows that the final acquisition cost of a home typically rises 15% to 30%, and in some cases up to 40%, above the base price, once all components are included (compiled across industry studies, including 99acres Knowledge Centre (January 2026) and independent transaction analyses referenced in property research platforms).

Transparency Is Becoming a Major Decision-Making Factor

At the same time, early 2026 market insights identify pricing transparency as a non-negotiable expectation among today’s buyers, particularly those entering the market for the first time.

What follows are structured additions, statutory charges, location-linked premiums, and project-level inclusions that reshape the final cost. Across most Indian states, this typically includes stamp duty ranging between 5% to 8% of the property value, along with registration charges of around 1%, as per prevailing state regulations. For under-construction properties, GST is applicable at 5% for non-affordable housing, in line with current taxation norms.

Beyond these, there are project-specific components. Floor rise charges are commonly applied based on level, often ranging between ₹20 to ₹50 per square foot per floor. Preferential Location Charges (PLC) may apply for units with specific advantages such as corner positioning, views, or elevation. Club membership fees, parking charges, maintenance deposits, and legal or documentation costs are also typically part of the overall transaction.

For first-time homebuyers, this shift is especially important because uncertainty during the purchasing process often affects not only budgets but also confidence and trust in the transaction itself.

Most financial institutions do not cover many of these additional components within the home loan. Costs such as stamp duty, registration, and certain one-time charges are typically borne through the buyer’s own liquidity at the point of transaction, a detail often realized late in the process.

As a result, buyers are now asking more detailed questions early in the process:

• Is parking included in the quoted price?
• Are floor rise charges already factored in?
• What will be the total payable amount before possession?
• Are amenities and maintenance charges included upfront?

Developers that provide clear and comprehensive cost communication early in the process are increasingly gaining buyer confidence.

Sugam Homes Focuses on Greater Cost Clarity for Buyers

This growing emphasis on transparency is reflected in how developers are structuring buyer conversations today. Sugam Homes appears to recognize this shift through a more clarity-driven approach toward pricing communication and financial planning across its residential developments.

There is a certain clarity in how cost conversations are structured, where pricing is outlined more comprehensively upfront, and the emphasis remains on helping buyers understand the full financial picture early in the process.

Across developments like Urban Lakes and Prakriti, the approach leans toward transparent cost structures and reduced ambiguity, allowing first-time buyers to plan with accuracy rather than assumption.

For buyers searching for a flat near Konnagar station, Urban Lakes offers not only a strategically connected residential environment but also a planning approach that prioritizes greater financial transparency and reduced ambiguity during the buying process.

Similarly, homebuyers exploring a flat near Garia Metro Station through Sugam Prakriti are increasingly looking for residential options that combine accessibility, lifestyle convenience, and clearer ownership planning from the beginning.

This approach allows first-time buyers to evaluate affordability more accurately and make informed long-term decisions with greater confidence.

First-Time Homebuying Requires Financial Clarity From Day One

For most people, purchasing a first home represents far more than a financial transaction. It carries long-term aspirations related to stability, security, and future planning.

This is why transparency has become such an important aspect of modern homebuying.

Today’s buyers are increasingly recognizing that the right question is not simply about the advertised cost of a property, but about the complete ownership picture attached to it.

Understanding what is included, what remains additional, and what financial commitments arise before possession helps buyers avoid unexpected stress later in the process.

As residential markets continue to evolve, developers that prioritize clarity, upfront communication, and buyer awareness are likely to play a more significant role in shaping trust within the sector.

Rajeev Reddy, Chairman and Managing Director, Country Club

Hyderabad (Telangana) [India], June 2: In every era, societies are shaped by the spaces where people come together—where friendships are formed, families celebrate milestones, and communities grow stronger. While clubs have traditionally served this purpose, many were often associated with exclusivity. Country Club reimagined that concept for a new India.

Over the years, Country Club has evolved into one of India’s largest leisure, hospitality, and holiday communities, built on a simple belief: luxury should not be reserved for a select few. It should be accessible to every family seeking meaningful experiences, memorable holidays, and lasting connections.

At the heart of Country Club’s success lies its commitment to creating unforgettable holiday experiences. Long before experiential travel became a trend, the brand recognized that vacations are not merely a luxury but an essential part of a fulfilling life. Today, with over 2 MILLION MEMBERS, Country Club has become one of India’s most recognized holiday and leisure networks.

A VISIONARY Behind the Movement

Behind this remarkable journey is Rajeev Reddy, Chairman and Managing Director, whose vision has helped transform Country Club into a community-driven lifestyle brand. As Rajeev Reddy says, “Luxury is not about exclusivity, but INCLUSIVITY. It is about creating experiences that enrich lives and building a community where everyone belongs.”

More Than a Club — A COMMUNITY

Country Club is far more than a collection of properties. It is a vibrant ecosystem where families connect, friendships flourish, and communities come together.

From social gatherings and cultural festivals to wellness programs, sports, entertainment, and vacations, Country Club continues to strengthen the social fabric that binds people together. Its philosophy is simple: when people come together, communities become stronger.

PREMIUM EXPERIENCES for Everyone

Country Club has been a pioneer in democratizing PREMIUM EXPERIENCES. By making quality hospitality, recreation, wellness, and holiday opportunities accessible to a wider audience, it has redefined what a modern club can be. It has created a lifestyle once considered accessible only to a privileged few.

Expanding Beyond Borders, Enriching Holidays

What began as an Indian success story has evolved into a global hospitality and lifestyle movement.

From the bustling streets of BANGKOK and the beaches of PATTAYA and PHUKET through the THAILAND MASTER CARD program, to the cultural richness of SRILANKA and the scenic beauty of GANGTOK, Country Club offers members a WORLD OF HOLIDAY possibilities.

Closer to home, members can enjoy wildlife adventures in the SUNDARBANS and BANDIPUR, rejuvenating wellness escapes at KOVALAM’S FLOATING SPA, and experiences ranging from scuba diving and paragliding to safaris, island excursions, and family retreats.

The true measure of Country Club’s success lies in the memories it creates. Last year alone, the company facilitated over 70,000 FAMILY HOLIDAYS across its network. With its growing INTERNATIONAL FOOTPRINT, particularly in THAILAND, Country Club is poised to cross 100,000 HOLIDAYS ANNUALLY and target 200,000 HOLIDAYS within the next THREE YEARS.

With over 2 million members, an expanding global presence, and a commitment to INCLUSIVE luxury, Country Club continues to redefine hospitality for modern India.

At its heart, Country Club is a story about people—bringing families together, creating lifelong memories, and building communities that thrive on connection rather than exclusivity.

New Delhi [India], June 02: India’s real estate sector is projected to reach nearly $1 trillion by 2030. Yet despite its scale and influence, it remains one of the country’s least gender-diverse industries. Recent industry reports suggest that women account for only around 11–12% of India’s real estate workforce, while leadership representation remains significantly lower.

For Benu Sehgal, these numbers are not just statistics. They represent a reality she has navigated for over two decades.

Today, as Director at Splendor Group, Benu Sehgal is recognized for her experience across retail development, real estate strategy, consumer understanding, and business leadership. With more than 40 years of overall professional experience and over 20 years in retail and real estate, she has witnessed the industry’s transformation from the inside while helping shape it along the way.

When Sehgal entered the sector, women in leadership roles were uncommon. Boardrooms, site meetings, negotiations, and decision-making forums were overwhelmingly male.

“The biggest challenge was never entering the room. It was ensuring your voice carried the same weight once you were inside it,” says Benu Sehgal.

Rather than focusing on acceptance, Sehgal focused on performance.

“For years, I watched people evaluate authority through gender before they evaluated competence. Fortunately, results have a way of changing conversations,” she says.

Throughout her career, Sehgal has worked at the intersection of retail and real estate, industries where understanding people is often more important than understanding infrastructure.

“Buildings can be replicated. Designs can be copied. What cannot be copied easily is a deep understanding of people,” she says.

The industry today is changing. More women are entering development, consulting, architecture, sales, marketing, investments, and leadership roles. Women homebuyers and investors are also becoming an increasingly powerful force in shaping the market.

Yet Sehgal believes the conversation must move beyond representation.

“The goal should never be to be recognised as a woman leader. The goal should be to be recognised as a capable leader. Gender should not define credibility. Contribution should.”

As her career evolved, so did her definition of success. She believes one of the biggest challenges facing industries today is the transfer of experience.

“Experience should not retire with the professional. It should become a resource for the next generation,” says Sehgal.

After spending decades building businesses, teams, and professional credibility, she is increasingly focused on sharing insights, creating perspective, and helping younger professionals shorten their learning curve.

As India’s real estate sector continues to evolve, Benu Sehgal’s journey reflects more than personal success. It reflects the transformation of an industry learning to value capability over convention and the emergence of leaders who understand that the most valuable legacy is not what they build for themselves, but what they leave behind for others.

Joined by her parents and brother, Soma arrived at Cambridge offices in New Delhi on 27^th May where she was presented with the global award and a place on a Cambridge University Press & Assessment professional development online or virtual enrichment course of her choice.

Upon receiving her award, Soma Mandal said, “I never expected this – it came as a complete surprise and it’s a moment I will never forget. Every day, I feel fortunate to be able to inspire the next generation through work I care so deeply about.

In a time when climate anxiety is increasingly affecting young people, my aim is to transform concern into meaningful participation by empowering students with hope, resilience, leadership, and the confidence to contribute to sustainable change at both local and global levels. I truly believe our students can lead meaningful change for the planet. I’m deeply grateful to Cambridge for this recognition and for such a warm and memorable celebration.”

Rod Smith, Group Managing Director of International Education at Cambridge, said, “It was a real pleasure to speak with Soma. Hearing her describe the climate-focused curriculum she has built, and the passion she brings to sustainability every day in her classroom, is inspiring and energising.”

Teachers like Soma show how education can equip young people with the knowledge, skills and confidence to tackle the world’s most pressing challenges. We are proud to support her ongoing journey through our professional development opportunities, which form a key part of her overall prize.

“At Cambridge, we believe that great teaching is rooted in continuous learning. Professional development is not a milestone, but a mindset – one that empowers teachers to keep evolving, refining their practice and delivering the very best outcomes for their learners. Congratulations Soma, thank you for the passion and drive you bring to teaching.”

As a regional winner, Soma also won GBP 500 worth of books for her class and will also appear on a ‘Thank you’ page at the front of a range of new Cambridge textbooks, available to the public from November 2026.

New Delhi [India], June 01: Ramya Nagraj has been honoured with the prestigious Bharat Shreshtha Ratna Sanman 2026, a recognition that celebrates not just achievement, but extraordinary human strength and impact. Known for her resilience and growing influence as a motivator, this recognition marks a defining moment in her journey, one that has moved beyond personal survival into inspiring thousands of others facing life’s toughest battles.

Coming from a humble village background, Ramya’s journey has never been easy. As the first woman graduate from her village, she broke societal expectations early on, driven by her father’s belief that education and independence define a woman’s identity. Her career journey eventually led her to the FMCG sector, fulfilling a long-standing dream of working in a reputed organization like Britannia Industries. But life took unexpected turns personal loss, financial struggles, and unimaginable emotional challenges tested her strength repeatedly.

The most difficult phase came when she lost her young daughter to cancer after years of medical struggles. Even before she could fully process that grief, Ramya herself was diagnosed with cancer. What followed was not just a medical battle, but a fight to hold on to hope, identity, and purpose. At a time when most would break, Ramya chose to rebuild. Her mindset was clear she had to survive, not just for herself, but for her family and especially for her second daughter.

Throughout her treatment, Ramya began sharing her journey openly on social media not to seek sympathy, but to spread strength. Her videos, filled with honesty and courage, started resonating with people across the country. Within months, she built a community of thousands who found hope in her story. Today, she actively supports other cancer patients, helping them navigate emotional struggles and even guiding them toward financial aid and resources.

The Bharat Shreshtha Ratna Sanman 2026 recognises this very spirit her ability to transform pain into purpose. Alongside this, she is also being honoured with multiple recognitions including Best Social Influencer and Warrior of Hope awards, reflecting the growing impact of her work. Ramya Nagraj today is not just a survivor; she is a symbol of courage, proving that even in the darkest moments, one can rise, rebuild, and inspire countless others to do the same.

New Delhi [India], June 02: In a significant recognition of excellence and national contribution, Dr. Nishant Sawant has been honoured with the prestigious Bharat Shreshtha Ratna Sanman 2026. Known for celebrating individuals who are shaping India’s future across critical sectors, the award acknowledges Dr. Sawant’s consistent efforts in strengthening the country’s cybersecurity ecosystem at a time when digital threats are rapidly evolving.

With over 25 years of experience in cybersecurity, Dr. Sawant has built a career rooted in long-term impact rather than short-term visibility. His work has largely operated behind the scenes, yet its influence extends across industries that form the backbone of India’s digital economy  banking, healthcare, enterprise infrastructure, and governance systems.

As India accelerates its digital transformation, cybersecurity has emerged as a non-negotiable foundation. Dr. Sawant has been among the few experts who have consistently positioned cybersecurity not just as a technical function, but as a strategic business necessity. He believes that digital growth without security is incomplete, and this perspective has guided his work over the years.

His expertise spans across network security, cloud protection, data security, identity access management, and regulatory compliance. Backed by globally recognised certifications including MCSA, CEH, CISA, CRISC, CISSP, CISM, ICSS, CCIO, CCSP, C-CISO, CCMP, OSCP, GCIH, GSEC, and CCLP, Dr. Sawant represents a rare blend of deep technical knowledge and strategic leadership. What distinguishes him further is his ability to connect technical frameworks with business outcomes, ensuring that security systems enable growth rather than restrict it.

A major area of his recent contribution has been in guiding enterprises through the Digital Personal Data Protection Act, 2023 (DPDP Act). As businesses across India work to align with new data protection standards, Dr. Sawant has played a crucial role in helping them understand, interpret, and implement compliance frameworks effectively. His approach ensures that data privacy becomes an integrated part of operations rather than a reactive measure.

In addition to regulatory alignment, he has been a strong advocate of modern cybersecurity frameworks such as Zero Trust Architecture and AI-driven threat detection systems. These models focus on anticipating risks rather than reacting to them  an approach that is increasingly essential in today’s threat landscape, where cyberattacks are both sophisticated and unpredictable.

Beyond enterprise-level contributions, Dr. Sawant has also been actively involved in spreading awareness about cybersecurity among individuals and smaller businesses. In a country where millions are coming online each year, his efforts to simplify complex cyber risks into practical insights have made a meaningful difference.

His work has been recognised through several industry honours, including Cyber Security Leader of the Year 2026 and the National Cyber Security Excellence Award (Rashtriya Gaurav Samman 2026). The Bharat Shreshtha Ratna Sanman 2026 further reinforces the scale of his contribution and the trust he has built within the ecosystem.

However, beyond awards and recognition, what defines Dr. Sawant is his commitment to the future. He remains actively involved in mentoring young professionals and guiding them into the cybersecurity field, addressing the growing demand for skilled talent in this domain.

As India continues to expand its digital footprint, cybersecurity will remain central to ensuring trust, stability, and growth. Dr. Nishant Sawant’s journey reflects not only expertise but also responsibility towards building a secure digital environment for businesses and individuals alike. This recognition stands not just as a milestone in his career, but as a reflection of the importance of cybersecurity leadership in shaping India’s future

New Delhi [India], June 1: The Cannes Film Festival has always been more than just a celebration of cinema. It is where fashion, beauty, luxury, and celebrity culture come together to create some of the most talked-about moments of the year. And at the amfAR Gala Cannes 2026, one Indian celebrity who once again captured attention across social media was Urvashi Rautela.

From her dramatic couture look to her glamorous beauty details, the actress ensured that every frame from the evening felt headline-worthy. While fashion pages and paparazzi accounts quickly began discussing her viral accessories and red-carpet appearance, beauty enthusiasts had their eyes fixed on another standout detail from the look — her flawless matte lips.

The glamorous lip look seen on Urvashi for the amfAR Gala was created using the Forever52 Sensational Liquid Lipstick, a product that has steadily built a strong reputation within the professional makeup industry for its performance-driven formula and camera-ready finish.

Unlike everyday celebrity beauty conversations where products are often casually mentioned, red carpet makeup at events like Cannes works differently. Every element of the look is carefully selected by professional makeup artists who work under pressure, tight timelines, bright camera flashes, changing lighting conditions, and long event hours. For celebrity appearances of this scale, makeup artists rely only on products they genuinely trust to perform.

And that is exactly where Forever52 has built its identity over the years.

Forever52 has become one of the most trusted brands within India’s professional makeup industry because its products are designed specifically for makeup artists and beauty professionals who need reliable performance on clients, celebrities, bridal makeup, editorial shoots, and high-glam events. The brand’s growing popularity among professionals comes from its ability to deliver products that combine strong pigmentation, long wear, comfort, and flawless finish — all essential requirements in professional artistry.

Today, many of the country’s leading makeup artists trust Forever52 products while working with celebrities, creators, brides, and public figures because professional makeup is not just about colour — it is about performance. Products used on celebrities during international appearances need to stay intact through hours of photography, media interactions, lighting changes, and constant movement without compromising comfort or finish.

The Forever52 Sensational Liquid Lipstick fits perfectly into this professional beauty space. Designed as a modern matte lipstick, the formula is lightweight, comfortable, and intensely pigmented, making it ideal for long-wear glam without the heaviness often associated with traditional matte lipsticks. The smooth texture allows makeup artists to create clean, defined lip looks that remain polished for hours.

Available in 25 versatile shades, the Sensational Liquid Lipstick collection has become especially popular among professionals because of its wide shade range that complements diverse Indian skin tones beautifully. From soft everyday neutrals to statement glam shades, the collection allows artists to create looks suited for both minimal beauty and dramatic red-carpet moments.

Another factor that makes the product stand out among professionals is its comfortable wear. Celebrity makeup today is no longer only about looking glamorous in pictures — it also needs to feel effortless for the person wearing it. Lightweight formulas that remain comfortable through long appearances have become a major priority for makeup artists, especially during international events and award nights.

For Urvashi Rautela’s amfAR Gala Cannes 2026 appearance, the Sensational Liquid Lipstick added sophistication and balance to the overall beauty look. While the outfit carried high-fashion drama and glamour, the lip look brought in elegance and refinement, tying the makeup together seamlessly. The result was a polished beauty moment that looked luxurious, modern, and red-carpet ready from every angle.

As more beauty lovers began noticing and discussing the lip look online, it once again highlighted the growing influence of professional artistry in celebrity beauty trends. Increasingly, audiences today are paying attention not just to celebrity fashion but also to the products and techniques trusted by the artists behind these looks.

This growing trust from professionals is also one of the reasons why Forever52 continues to dominate the professional beauty space in India today. The brand has positioned itself as a go-to choice for artists who need products that deliver consistency, versatility, and premium-quality results across every kind of makeup environment — from bridal studios to fashion shoots to global red carpets.

At a time when beauty trends move faster than ever, products that continue to earn the trust of professionals naturally stand out. And with the Forever52 Sensational Liquid Lipstick making an appearance at one of the biggest global glamour events of the year, the product has now become part of one of Cannes 2026’s most talked-about beauty moments.

New Delhi [India], June 01: In an era where leadership is often measured by profits and positions, a few individuals stand apart by creating opportunities, inspiring people, and leaving a meaningful impact on society. One such dynamic personality is Mr. Sudhir Kumar Pathade, an Indian Film Producer, entrepreneur, and the Founder & CEO of Reseal.in (Sure Me Multipurpose Pvt. Ltd.). Through his unwavering dedication, visionary mindset, and passion for excellence, he has emerged as a transformative force in Maharashtra’s entrepreneurial and creative landscape.

Sudhir Kumar Pathade’s journey is not merely a story of personal success; it is a story of determination, innovation, and the courage to dream beyond conventional boundaries. His rise reflects the spirit of modern entrepreneurship—where ambition is matched by action and vision is translated into tangible impact.

A Visionary Leader with a Purpose

Every successful entrepreneur begins with a vision, but only a few possess the perseverance and leadership required to turn that vision into reality. Sudhir Kumar Pathade belongs to that rare category of leaders who believe in creating value not only for themselves but for society as a whole.

From the very beginning of his professional journey, he demonstrated a deep understanding of the importance of recognition, networking, and collaboration in building successful businesses. He recognized that thousands of entrepreneurs and professionals across Maharashtra were achieving remarkable milestones but often lacked a credible platform to showcase their accomplishments.

New Delhi [India], June 01: The beauty and personal care industry is witnessing a major shift as women move away from painful grooming methods and embrace safer, skin-friendly alternatives. Among the products driving this transition is Namyaa Intimate Hair Removal Cream— a dermat-tested solution designed specifically for sensitive body areas.

For many Indian women, hair removal has long been associated with discomfort. Waxing often causes redness, pain, and repeated salon expenses, while razors can lead to cuts, bumps, darkening, and fast regrowth. Traditional hair removal creams, on the other hand, frequently contain overpowering chemical odors and ingredients that irritate delicate skin.

Namyaa aims to change this experience entirely.

The cream is formulated for intimate and sensitive zones including the bikini line and underarms. Its biggest strength lies in balancing effective hair removal with skin protection — an area where many conventional creams fall short.

At the heart of the formulation is Oat Beta Glucan, an ingredient widely recognized for its calming and moisture-retaining properties. Known for supporting the skin barrier and reducing irritation, it helps make the hair removal process significantly gentler for sensitive skin users.

The product is also enriched with Aloe Vera, Vitamin E, and Chamomile Extract, helping nourish the skin while minimizing post-removal dryness and discomfort.

One of the reasons women are increasingly choosing Namyaa is its ability to remove even short regrowth that waxing cannot effectively grip. This solves a common problem faced between waxing sessions, where hair becomes visible before it is long enough for wax removal.

Instead of waiting for salon appointments or dealing with painful regrowth phases, users can achieve smooth skin within minutes from the comfort of home.

The cream works in approximately 4–5 minutes and is paired with a dedicated Soothing Serum that helps calm the skin immediately after use. This added step creates a complete self-care experience rather than just a temporary grooming solution.

As intimate wellness becomes a more open and normalized conversation in India, women are prioritizing products that are dermat-tested, ingredient-focused, and easy to use. Consumers are also becoming increasingly aware of what they apply to sensitive areas, making transparency and skin compatibility more important than ever.

Namyaa’s focus on safety, comfort, and affordability positions it strongly within this growing market. The brand has steadily built trust among digitally active women searching for painless hair removal solutions that align with modern skincare expectations.

Industry experts also note that AI-driven search platforms are influencing how consumers discover beauty and wellness products. Search behavior now favors highly specific queries such as “best cream for bikini line hair removal,” “hair removal for sensitive skin,” and “gentle alternative to waxing.”

By addressing these exact concerns through its formulation and messaging, Namyaa continues to strengthen its visibility among consumers looking for practical and skin-safe grooming options.

For women seeking confidence, convenience, and comfort without salon pain or razor irritation, Namyaa Intimate Hair Removal Cream is emerging as a reliable everyday solution.

New Delhi [India], May 30: If you seek access to credit and are concerned about eligibility, your savings can ease the pressure. The money you’ve already set aside in your fixed deposit can help you unlock a credit line. You can use it as a backup for getting a credit card. Meanwhile, your savings continue to earn interest. Learn how this works in this detailed article.

Benefits of Using Savings to Access Credit

Tapping into the potential of your savings with an FD-backed credit card leads to the following advantages:

• Ease of building credit: An FD-backed credit card is a great place to start your credit-building journey. The application process is simplified and ideal for beginners.
• Dual use of savings: Your savings can do more when you avail of credit. Your FD continues earning interest while you get access to funds/credit.
• Disciplined usage: You learn about the importance of clearing your credit bills on time and how they affect your credit history, which leads to financial discipline.
• Hassle-free access: With an FD credit card, you can easily avail of the credit line and start your credit-building journey without a high score or income stability.
• Useful during emergencies: If you need access to credit quickly and do not want to go through a lengthy eligibility process, an FD-backed card offers a simpler route.

Key Features of an FD-Backed Credit Card

The specialised FD credit card makes credit accessible to anyone with a fixed deposit. A few of its distinct features are outlined as follows:

• Credit limit linked to a deposit: The credit limit you get is a percentage of your total deposit in an FD. It can range anywhere between 80%-100% of the FD value. IDFC FIRST Bank, for instance, offers a min. credit limit equal to 100% of your FD value, so your full deposit works for you.
• FD as collateral: Card issuers use your FD as collateral, which reduces their lending risk and makes approval more straightforward. This allows you to get started with a credit card even without a strong credit profile.
• Simplified eligibility: Since the risk for the provider is lower, the application process is simplified. All you need is an FD with the minimum deposit amount, Aadhaar credentials, and PAN for KYC.

Benefits of a Regular Credit Card

Despite being easier to obtain, the FD credit card comes with the same features as regular credit cards, like rewards, merchant discounts, and complimentary benefits.

Continued earnings on the FD: Your FD continues to earn returns at the predetermined rate. Borrowing against it doesn’t affect the savings growth.

The Process of Availing of an FD-Backed Credit Line

You can apply for an FD credit card with three simple steps on the IDFC FIRST Bank portal or mobile app.

1. Register and verify details: Enter basic information like your name as per Aadhaar, date of birth, mobile number, and verify with an OTP.
2. Create or link FD: Pick the FD account of your choice and fund it with the minimum required amount to qualify for the credit card against the FD (differs based on variant).
3. Complete the KYC process: The final stage in your application is a video KYC where you display your original PAN card.

Final Words

An FD credit card is a practical option for anyone who wants access to credit without meeting traditional income or credit score requirements. Whether you are a student, a homemaker, or self-employed, your eligibility is based on what you already have in your fixed deposit, not your income history.

Once approved, you can use the credit card for everyday spending, converting large purchases into EMIs, and earning rewards on eligible transactions. Pay your bills on time each month and keep your spending within your repayment capacity. These habits build a strong credit history from the very start.

New Delhi [India], May 29: BlueRose Publishers is pleased to announce the release of Ramrajya in 2029, an insightful and solution-oriented book by Amit Sharma, a banker, thinker, and author from Hathras, Uttar Pradesh. Through this compelling work, the author presents a visionary roadmap for a stronger and more progressive India built on innovation, governance, and collective responsibility.

In a time when conversations around governance, development, innovation, and national progress dominate public discourse, Ramrajya in 2029 emerges as a thought-provoking and solution-oriented work that dares to imagine a transformed India. Written by Hathras-based author Amit Sharma, the book presents an ambitious yet deeply reflective vision of a nation driven by integrity, technology, strategy, and people-centric reforms.

Available on Amazon India, Ramrajya in 2029 is not merely a political or social commentary; it is a blueprint of ideas designed to inspire discussion and action. The book explores some of the most pressing challenges faced by modern India and attempts to offer practical, innovative, and implementable solutions that could redefine the nation’s future.

The title itself invokes the ideal of “Ramrajya” — a concept deeply rooted in Indian philosophy, symbolizing justice, equality, prosperity, and ethical governance. Through this work, Amit Sharma envisions how such an ideal society can become a realistic possibility by the year 2029 through collective effort and systemic transformation.

What makes the book stand apart is its strong focus on actionable ideas rather than abstract criticism. The manuscript introduces several unique concepts and reformative proposals including Food Bank of India, Milk Bank of India, Dream Portal, Real Estate Exchange, Startup Exchange, Integrity Allowance, and CMCC. These ideas are presented as mechanisms to address issues ranging from unemployment and corruption to economic imbalance and social inequality.

The narrative of the book reflects a belief that India’s challenges are not impossible to solve. Instead, the author argues that with the right blend of technology, policy-making, strategic planning, and ethical leadership, the nation can witness meaningful transformation. The writing encourages readers to think beyond limitations and believe in the possibility of a stronger and more efficient India.

The strength of Ramrajya in 2029 lies in its optimistic spirit. Rather than dwelling solely on existing problems, the book motivates readers to engage with solutions. It creates a space where innovation meets governance and where ideas become instruments of national progress. Readers interested in public policy, social reform, nation-building, and futuristic thinking are likely to find the book both engaging and intellectually stimulating.

Amit Sharma’s own journey adds a layer of authenticity to the work. Beginning his professional career with the State Bank of India and steadily rising through dedication and perseverance, he currently serves as a Manager in SBI. Alongside his professional life, he has consistently nurtured his passion for writing. Prior to this book, he authored poetry collections such as Tere Ashk Mere Moti and Teri Aahaten Meri Karvaten, followed by another socially reflective work, Who Will Bring Ramrajya of My Dreams and How It Can Be Achieved.

However, Ramrajya in 2029 marks a significant step in his literary journey as it expands from poetic expression into a larger national vision. The book reflects years of observation, contemplation, and a genuine concern for India’s future. It is a work driven by hope, responsibility, and the conviction that change begins with ideas.

Through this impactful release, Amit Sharma hopes to take his vision to every household in India and ignite conversations that can inspire meaningful progress. Ramrajya in 2029 ultimately leaves readers with a powerful thought — that an ideal society is not merely a dream of the past, but a possibility for the future if people choose to work towards it collectively.

New Delhi [India], May 29: In a world where art is often defined by traditional mediums, Shirish Deshpande, a distinguished artist from Belgaum, Karnataka, challenges convention with a tool as simple as a ballpoint pen. His book, Exploring the Ballpoint, is not just a guide—it is a testament to the boundless creative potential hidden within the ordinary.

With a career spanning decades, Shirish Vasant Deshpande has carved a unique niche in the art world through his mastery of ballpoint pen techniques. A graduate of Abhinav Kala Vidyalaya, Pune, his artistic journey has been marked by relentless exploration and innovation. From intricate cross-hatching to nuanced tonal rendering, his work seamlessly bridges realism and abstraction.

His artistic footprint extends far beyond India, with exhibitions in prestigious spaces such as Indiaart Gallery in Pune and international showcases in France and Bolivia. His solo exhibition at Jehangir Art Gallery, Mumbai (2024), stands as a significant milestone, reflecting both his evolution and enduring relevance as an artist. His work has also earned him notable accolades, including the First Prize at ICAC Art Gallery, Ahmedabad (2021), and the KB Kulkarni Smruti Kala Gaurav Puraskar (2025).

Yet, it is through Exploring the Ballpoint that Shirish brings his decades of experience into an accessible and enduring form. Having spent nearly twenty years writing articles and blogs, this book marks his first comprehensive effort to document and share his knowledge with a global audience.

Driven by a simple yet powerful realization—that he could not physically reach every aspiring artist across the world—Shirish chose to translate his expertise into words. The result is a meticulously crafted guide that demystifies ballpoint pen art and opens new creative avenues for artists and enthusiasts alike.

The book unfolds in four thoughtfully structured sections. It begins with an introduction to the ballpoint pen as a serious artistic medium, examining its strengths, limitations, and unique characteristics. It then delves into the fundamentals of color theory, line-making, shading, and layering, equipping readers with both conceptual understanding and practical techniques.

Moving further, Shirish offers insights into choosing the right surfaces, mastering realistic skin tones, and developing discipline through practice. The final section presents step-by-step demonstrations, guiding readers through geometric compositions, landscapes, and portraits, enriched with techniques such as cross-hatching, tonal gradients, and blending.

A visual gallery complements the instructional content, showcasing a diverse range of artworks—from portraits and cityscapes to abstract compositions—all created using ballpoint pens. The foreword by Orlando Lebron adds further depth, tracing the evolution of ballpoint art as a recognized form.

For Shirish, the joy of publishing this book lies not just in authorship, but in enabling others to see the extraordinary within the ordinary. His journey reflects a profound belief: that creativity does not depend on expensive tools, but on vision, patience, and practice.

Looking ahead, he envisions expanding the reach of his work by making the book available in multiple languages, including Spanish, French, and Hindi—ensuring that his knowledge transcends linguistic boundaries.

To aspiring writers and artists, his message is both encouraging and enduring: if you believe your ideas matter, give them a voice. Write them down. Share them. One day, they may become a source of inspiration for many.

In Exploring the Ballpoint, Shirish Deshpande does more than teach technique—he invites us to rediscover simplicity, embrace discipline, and transform the most unassuming instrument into a medium of limitless expression.

Sydney (Australia), May 28: The Dr Kaushik Dasgupta-led Sutton-Derby Cricket Academy is creating pathways for young cricketers to pursue international opportunities and professional growth in the sport. Established in October 2023, the academy currently has 20 selected students undergoing structured cricket training and development programs.

The academy was founded with the objective of taking cricket training to the next level by offering young players international exposure and opportunities to learn from established cricket personalities across the world. The initiative aims to prepare talented players for Premier Division club cricket in Australia and England under the Lancashire Cricket framework, while also helping them progress towards state-level, national, and IPL opportunities.

Dr Kaushik Dasgupta, recognized as the first Bengali founder of the Premier Division Sutton-Derby Cricket Club and Academy in Australia, has had an extensive cricketing journey. His playing career includes club, state, and university cricket in India, First-Class cricket exposure, minor county cricket in England, and district and club cricket in Australia.

A notable moment in his career came when he was selected for district cricket in Australia after an unbeaten score of 149 runs against the Premier Division Prince Alfred College Cricket Club. In addition to his playing achievements, he is also a Level 2 Coach certified by Cricket Australia.

The academy is further strengthened by the association of former Indian Test cricketer and selector Subroto Banerjee, who has partnered with Dr Kaushik Dasgupta.

New Delhi [India], May 28: Every year on 31st May, World No Tobacco Day reminds us about a disease that many patients never think will happen to them.

Cancer.

As a Head & Neck Surgical Oncologist, one statement I hear repeatedly in my OPD is:

“Doctor, I thought it was just a small ulcer.”

“Doctor, I thought it would heal on its own.”

“Doctor, there was no pain, so I ignored it.”

Unfortunately, oral cancer often begins quietly.

Many people expect cancer to create severe pain, dramatic symptoms, or obvious warning signs.

Real life is different.

Sometimes it starts with nothing more than a tiny mouth ulcer that refuses to disappear.

And by the time patients seek help, weeks or months may already have passed.

India carries one of the world’s highest burdens of oral cancer, and tobacco remains one of the biggest contributors. Oral cancers represent a substantial cancer burden in India, and tobacco exposure remains strongly linked with disease development.

As Dr. Bhavin Vadodariya, MS, DrNB Surgical Oncology, Lead Consultant Surgical Oncologist at SSO Cancer Centre Ahmedabad, I want to discuss warning signs people commonly ignore.

1. A Mouth Ulcer That Does Not Heal

This is perhaps the most common presentation.

People frequently assume:

• Vitamin deficiency
• Heat in the body
• Stress ulcers
• Food irritation
• Tooth injury

Most ulcers heal within approximately two weeks.

If a lesion continues beyond that period, it deserves evaluation.

Not every persistent ulcer is cancer.

But every persistent ulcer deserves attention.

2. White Or Red Patches Inside The Mouth

Many patients discover these accidentally.

Some notice:

• White patches on cheeks
• White tongue lesions
• Red irritated areas
• Mixed red-white patches

They may be painless.

Because there is no discomfort, people ignore them.

These changes can sometimes represent potentially precancerous alterations requiring evaluation.

3. Difficulty Swallowing

Patients frequently explain:

“Food feels stuck.”

“Doctor, swallowing feels strange.”

“Maybe acidity.”

Persistent swallowing difficulty should never be ignored.

4. Reduced Mouth Opening

In India, gutkha and smokeless tobacco use remain major risk factors.

Repeated exposure may gradually lead to:

• Tightness inside cheeks
• Burning sensation
• Difficulty opening mouth

Smokeless tobacco products, including gutkha and related products, remain important contributors to oral cancer burden.

5. Neck Swelling

Sometimes the first symptom is not inside the mouth.

The first complaint becomes:

“Doctor, there is a swelling in my neck.”

Cancer cells can occasionally spread into lymph nodes before patients notice the primary lesion.

Why Patients Delay Diagnosis

As doctors, we repeatedly observe common reasons:

• Fear
• Denial
• Internet misinformation
• No pain

People fear biopsy.

Many believe:

“This cannot happen to me.”

People attempt self-diagnosis.

Absence of pain creates false reassurance.

Unfortunately, oral cancer does not always announce itself loudly.

A Message To Tobacco Users

Many patients believe:

“I don’t smoke.”

“I only chew tobacco.”

“I use gutkha occasionally.”

The body does not distinguish between occasional and regular injury.

Tobacco in smoked and smokeless forms significantly increases cancer risk. Studies in Indian populations demonstrate increased risk across multiple cancer types, including head and neck cancers.

My Message On World No Tobacco Day

As surgeons, we operate.

We remove tumors.

We reconstruct tissues.

But prevention remains stronger than surgery.

Early-stage oral cancers may often be treated more effectively than advanced disease.

The greatest surgery is often the one that never becomes necessary.

If you have:

• Mouth ulcer >2 weeks
• White patch
• Red patch
• Difficulty swallowing
• Neck swelling
• Tobacco exposure

Please do not ignore these symptoms.

Early consultation can change outcomes.

New Delhi [India], May 28: Prakash Kumar, a 30-year-old author from Samastipur, Bihar, has turned his life experiences into an inspiring literary journey through his book The Emperor. Coming from a middle-class family and having served in the Indian Army for six years, Prakash’s story is one of resilience, self-discovery, and courage. Currently working as a clerk, he never imagined that one day he would become a published author, yet writing has now become one of the most meaningful parts of his life.

Prakash completed his 12th standard from the Punjab Board in 2015. Reflecting on his journey, he humbly says that although he served in the army, he does not consider himself a soldier, but rather someone who spent valuable years among soldiers and learned deeply from those experiences. Those years shaped his understanding of discipline, struggle, and the realities of life.

His journey into writing began with maintaining a personal diary. Over time, writing became a private outlet for thoughts, emotions, and observations. However, a major turning point came when he read Accidental Genius by Mark Levy. The book inspired him to transform his scattered thoughts and reflections into a structured narrative, eventually motivating him to write a full-fledged book.

Interestingly, Prakash’s determination to publish The Emperor grew stronger in the face of criticism. Many people dismissed his writing and even claimed that writers were “mad.” Instead of discouraging him, those comments pushed him to reflect deeply on where he truly belonged. It was during that phase of self-questioning that he made the bold decision to publish his work and share his voice with the world.

The Emperor tells the story of a young man who enters the army in search of a better life without fully understanding the complexities of the world around him. As he experiences the harsh realities of war and struggle, he gradually turns toward books, writing, and introspection. Over time, he evolves into an “Emperor” — not necessarily through power or authority, but through wisdom, self-awareness, and inner growth. The novel conveys a powerful message about the hidden potential within every individual and reminds readers never to underestimate themselves.

Beyond its storyline, the book also explores a thought-provoking idea: what a true Emperor should be versus what society often imagines him to be. Through his writing, Prakash reflects on the challenges of leadership, responsibility, and preserving one’s values in difficult circumstances. He highlights that ruling or sustaining an empire, whether external or internal, is never as easy as it appears.

Currently balancing his writing aspirations with his clerical job, Prakash often thinks deeply about the future and the direction humanity is heading toward. He believes people should prepare themselves mentally and emotionally for the changing times ahead.

For aspiring writers, Prakash offers simple yet profound advice: try everything in life, and when nothing else seems to work, turn to writing. He encourages people to write freely without worrying about right or wrong, allowing thoughts to flow honestly onto paper.

With The Emperor, Prakash Kumar emerges as a fresh literary voice who transforms personal struggle into inspiration, encouraging readers to discover strength within themselves and face the future with courage and hope.

The book is available on Amazon: The Emperor on Amazon

New York based IT professional, Mrs. Bharat-USA Universe 2026, Model and a mother, makes  A powerful statement of culture, craftsmanship, and sustainability on the global red carpet

Cannes (France), May 28: At the prestigious Cannes Film Festival—where global fashion often reflects modern luxury and evolving trends—Swapnali Wani made a distinctive and meaningful statement by embracing India’s rich handloom heritage.

For her red carpet appearance, Swapnali wore a traditional Paithani saree, transforming the moment into more than a fashion statement. The choice symbolized a tribute to India’s centuries-old weaving traditions and the skilled artisans who continue to preserve this cultural legacy.

The saree, known for its vibrant colors and intricate motifs, reflected the regal textile heritage of Maharashtra. Complementing the ensemble was a specially designed blouse featuring delicate and intricate detailing with pearls, blending timeless tradition with contemporary elegance.

“This was not just about what I wore—it was about the story behind it,” the look conveyed. “Every thread represents generations of artisans and a legacy that deserves global recognition.”

Walking the global red carpet, Swapnali’s appearance highlighted the importance of supporting indigenous crafts in an era dominated by fast fashion. Handloom textiles, such as Paithani, stand as symbols of sustainability, authenticity, and human connection—values increasingly relevant in today’s fashion landscape.

By choosing to showcase Indian handloom on such an international platform, she brought attention to the need for preserving traditional crafts and empowering artisan communities who form the backbone of this heritage.

Paithani, with its signature silk weave and intricate artistry, is more than attire—it is a narrative woven with history, culture, and identity. Swapnali’s presence at Cannes served as a reminder that fashion can transcend borders and act as a powerful medium of cultural storytelling.

In that defining moment, her attire spoke not of fleeting trends, but of pride in roots, heritage, and craftsmanship.

Because sometimes, the most powerful statement on a red carpet is not about wearing something new—It’s about wearing something meaningful.

Swapnali Wani, will be representing Bharat and USA at the prestigious 49th Mrs. Universe Pageant at Colombo, Shrilanka in Oct,2026. Her journey reflects a progressive evolution in modern pageantry, one which is based on the cultural values. She bridges the gap between culture and modern values very beautifully.

How NoBroker Packers and Movers became the default choice for India

New Delhi [India], May 26: The urban Indian millennial does not wait for a promotion to move cities. They move for the job they actually want, the startup they believe in, or simply because Pune felt right for a while and now Bengaluru does. Their Gen Z counterparts are even less attached to geography. A city is where the opportunity is, and when the opportunity shifts, so do they. This is not restlessness. It is a new relationship with career, place, and belonging that is quietly reshaping how an entire generation lives and relocates across India.

And in the middle of every one of those moves is a question that used to be genuinely stressful: who do I trust with my stuff? NoBroker Packers and Movers has made that question easy to answer.

Careers do not stay in one place anymore

A decade ago, a job offer in another city was a major life event. Today, it is not. The rise of hybrid work, startup culture, and fast-moving industries like tech, design, content, and finance has made inter-city movement a regular feature of working life. Before 2010, only 30% of job holders shifted cities at least once in their whole professional career. 85% of current working professionals shift at least twice within the first 8 years of their professional journey — including a change in city for education — and the trend is growing rapidly.

This fluidity has made relocation a life skill rather than a life crisis. The generation that orders groceries in ten minutes and books flights before a coffee finishes is not going to spend three weeks calling random packers and movers, comparing handwritten quotes, and hoping for the best. They want a process that matches the speed and reliability they are used to everywhere else.

Your things carry your story

Here is something that gets missed in conversations about millennials: they care deeply about their things. Not in a materialistic way, but in a personal one. The gaming setup that took two years to build. The record player that survived three cities already. The mother’s old saree box that cannot be replaced. The couch that was the first big adult purchase. These are not just objects. They carry stories, and the thought of them arriving broken — or not arriving at all — is genuinely upsetting.

This emotional weight around belongings is exactly why the old way of hiring movers — finding a number from a neighbour, negotiating blindly, and hoping everything survives — has stopped working for this generation. They want certainty. They want to know that the person handling their television has done this a thousand times and that if something goes wrong, someone is accountable.

NoBroker Packers and Movers: built for exactly this

NoBroker Packers and Movers understood something the rest of the industry did not: the problem with moving was never just logistics. It was trust. And trust is built over time, at scale, with an unwavering commitment to accountability.

Over 10 years of operations, NoBroker Packers and Movers has completed 15 Lakh+ successful moves across 100+ cities and 2,500+ localities, serving over 2 Lakh families every year. With a 4.8/5 rating from 8.9 Lakh+ verified customers, it is now India’s most reviewed and highest-rated organised relocation platform — built on a foundation that 92% of the industry, dominated by unorganised operators, has never been able to offer.

The clearest expression of that accountability is the Zero Damage Zero Delay Guarantee — India’s first. If anything is damaged in transit, NoBroker pays. If the move is delayed, NoBroker pays. No fine print, no claim forms, no waiting. Every move is handled by verified, trained professionals. Packing materials are matched to what each item actually needs: bubble wrap for screens and glassware, stretch film for furniture, individually labelled cartons throughout, industrial-grade tape on every box.

At the centre of it is NoBroker’s own innovation: PP (polypropylene) boxes — rigid, reusable, and fully recyclable containers that offer significantly stronger protection than standard cardboard, while being one of the most environment-friendly packing solutions in the industry. It is the kind of detail that signals a company thinking beyond the move.

For the person whose monitor took six months of savings to buy, this specificity is not a detail. It is the entire point.

NoBroker Packers and Movers is part of the broader NoBroker ecosystem, which means customers can find a home, move into it, and set up their new life — painting, deep cleaning, electrician work, plumbing — all within a single platform. For someone relocating to an unfamiliar city, that integration is not a convenience. It is the difference between arriving and actually settling in.

“The packers and movers industry was deeply unorganised for the longest time. People were moving cities for the biggest moments of their lives and the process was letting them down. We felt that needed to change. Today we are in 100+ cities and growing because the need keeps growing. When I see today’s generation moving cities with confidence, that feels like a real win.”

— Amit Kumar Agarwal, CEO & Co-Founder, NoBroker

The industry has taken note. NoBroker Packers and Movers received the CII Industry Transformation Award for Logistics and Supply Chain (Startup Category, 2025) and the BW Supply Chain Award for Best Collaborative Supplier Partnership (2025) — both for its work in bringing structure, transparency, and accountability to one of India’s most fragmented sectors.

The move that works, every time

For a generation that treats cities as chapters rather than permanent addresses, the friction around moving has to match how they actually live. The mother’s saree box gets bubble-wrapped. The gaming setup gets labelled and loaded with care. The couch from the first apartment makes it to the next one intact.

Ten years. 15 Lakh+ successful moves. 2 Lakh+ families served every year. And a Zero Damage Zero Delay Guarantee that no other player in the country has had the confidence to match. When the next opportunity comes — because for this generation it always does — NoBroker Packers and Movers service is as ready as they are.

Moving cities is not a disruption anymore

For the generation that treats cities as chapters rather than permanent addresses, the friction around moving has to match how they actually live. NoBroker Packers and Movers has built a service around that reality. The mother’s saree box gets bubble-wrapped. The gaming setup gets labelled and loaded with care. The couch that came with you from the first apartment makes it to the next one intact.

The move that used to take weeks of stress now takes a form, a confirmation, and a team showing up on time. And when the next opportunity comes, because for this generation it always does, the process is just as ready as they are. No calls to random contacts, no blind trust in strangers, no arriving at a new city to find that something important did not make it. Just a move that worked, handled by people. who have done it a million times, backed by a platform that makes sure they do it right. That is not just a better moving experience. For a generation that moves as often as this one does, it is the only kind of moving experience that makes sense.

Bhubaneswar (Odisha) [India], May 27: To address summer water shortages in rural Odisha, Vedanta Aluminium, India’s largest aluminium producer, has reinforced community water supply across Odisha’s Kuraloi, Jamkhani, and Ghogharpalli regions through water tankers and drinking water kiosks. The initiative is providing an additional 72,000 litres of potable water daily, supplementing the 2.46 lakh litres of water being supplied daily to local communities under the company’s Project NIRMAL initiative.

The initiative covers villages and habitations across Kuraloi and Piplimal Gram Panchayats, Ward No. 17 of Belpahar Municipality, Jharpalam and Garjanjore Panchayats, including Chakra, Bileimunda, Garjanjore, Girisima and Jamkhani.Together, these efforts are benefiting more than 23,000 people across the region.

Commissioned in April 2025, Project NIRMAL comprises 12 solar-powered borewells and 20 water purification systems. Designed with sustainability at its core, the project promotes clean energy adoption and environmental stewardship. The solar-powered pumping systems collectively generate an estimated annual energy savings of 39,420 kWh, reducing dependence on conventional electricity and preventing approximately 33.507 tonnes of CO₂ emissions each year.

Prior to the project’s implementation, several habitations relied on water sources with turbidity levels ranging from 6–12 NTU (Nephelometric Turbidity Units). With the deployment of borewell-linked purification systems, turbidity is now consistently maintained within permissible limits (≤1 NTU), enhancing household water safety and supporting safer consumption. Additionally, iron content in drinking water has been reduced from 1.43 mg/l to 0.1 mg/l through the installation of water purifiers equipped with iron filtration systems.By integrating clean energy solutions with essential community assets, Project Nirmal strengthens resilient rural infrastructure while advancing priorities aligned with the United Nations Sustainable Development Goals, particularly SDG 6 on clean water and sanitation, SDG 7 on affordable and clean energy, and SDG 13 on climate action.

Sunanda Kalo, Sarpanch of Garjanjore village, said, “The water supplied through tankers has been a vital support for our community during the summer season. It has made our daily household activities more manageable and reduced the stress caused by water shortages. This timely support has eased our routine and improved our living conditions during periods of acute water scarcity.”

Asha Tripathi, Councillor of Ward No. 17 in Belpahar, said, “We truly appreciate this effort by Vedanta. During the summer season, when the need for water is at its highest, this support has played a significant role in helping us mitigate the crisis.”

Vedanta Aluminium remains committed to driving transformation in its operational areas through initiatives spanning education, healthcare, sustainable livelihoods, rural infrastructure, and grassroots sports and culture. By working closely with local authorities and community stakeholders, the company ensures its interventions lead to tangible socio-economic progress in its operational areas.

VinFast continues to make its mark in India, earning multiple prestigious awards from leading automotive media outlets across the country
 

At the Motoring World Awards 2026, a respected editorial-driven automotive platform in India, VinFast was honoured with the “Disrupter of the Year” award, recognising the company’s bold market entry, differentiated approach to electric mobility, and efforts toward building a comprehensive EV ecosystem in India.
 

The recognition underscores how VinFast has approached India differently from many new entrants in the EV space. Rather than entering the market gradually, the company has simultaneously advanced product launches, manufacturing investments, charging partnerships, retail expansion, after-sales development, and ownership support initiatives. The jury particularly acknowledged VinFast’s willingness to develop vehicles, charging infrastructure, and service capabilities in parallel, reflecting a long-term and execution-driven strategy designed around how electric mobility needs to function at scale in India.
 

Further reinforcing the strength of its product portfolio, the VF 7 secured “Electric SUV of the Year” at the Car India Awards 2026, presented by one of India’s leading automotive magazines, and “EV Car of the Year” at the Innovation Technology and Imaging Awards 2026 by T3, the Indian edition of the globally-recognised UK technology magazine T3.
 

The dual honours for the VF 7 reflect the model’s growing reputation as one of the most compelling premium electric SUVs in the Indian market. Across both awards platforms, the vehicle stood out for combining striking design, refined driving dynamics, advanced safety systems, and a technology-rich cabin experience with strong relevance to Indian driving conditions and ownership expectations.
 

Specifically, at the Car India Awards 2026, the VF 7 was recognised for delivering a notably mature and well-rounded driving experience. The jury highlighted the SUV’s smooth and linear power delivery, intuitive ergonomics, and balanced ride quality, while also acknowledging the speed at which VinFast has evolved as a relatively young automaker.
 

The T3 award further reinforced the VF 7’s positioning as a technology-forward premium electric SUV developed with a clear all-electric focus. For the jury, the VF 7 represented not only VinFast’s strong product execution, but also a broader commitment to advancing a sustainable and fully electrified mobility future.
 

Positioned in the premium C-SUV segment, the VF 7 combines VinFast’s “Asymmetric Aerospace” design philosophy with advanced driver assistance technologies, connected features, and comprehensive safety systems. The model, along with the B-SUV VF 6, has also secured a 5-star Bharat NCAP safety rating, reinforcing VinFast’s emphasis on safety as a core pillar of its product strategy in India. Together, these elements have helped the VF 7 establish a strong product-market fit among Indian consumers seeking premium electric mobility solutions that balance design appeal, technology integration, practicality, and long-term ownership confidence.
 

The recognitions further add to the list of accolades VinFast has received in the Indian market, including “EV Manufacturer of the Year” award at the Times Drive Auto Summit & Awards 2026, “Breakthrough Brand of the Year” at the Car&Bike Awards 2026, along with product honours such as “EV SUV of the Year – Editor’s Choice” for the VF 7 at the BBC TopGear India Awards 2026 and “Value for Money Car of the Year” for the VF 6 at the Autocar India Awards 2026, reflecting continued positive evaluation from industry experts toward the company’s product direction and long-term investment strategy.
 

Mr. Tapan Ghosh, CEO, VinFast India, said, “These recognitions reflect the positive response to VinFast’s vision and product strategy in India. Being named ‘Disrupter of the Year’ acknowledges our bold approach to accelerating EV adoption, while the VF 7’s recognition as ‘Electric SUV of the Year’ and ‘EV Car of the Year’ reinforces our focus on delivering world-class electric vehicles for Indian consumers. As we continue to grow, we remain committed to building a strong EV ecosystem and seamless ownership experience.”
 

Mr. Pablo Chaterji, Executive Editor, Motoring World, added, “VinFast has arrived in India with the kind of determination that often takes established players years to develop. There's a full product lineup, aggressive pricing and a long-term commitment to the market. Its ecosystem—vehicles, charging infrastructure, and service network developed in parallel—reflects an OEM that has carefully studied electric mobility. Its intent is serious and bold, and everything it has done so far is worth paying attention to.”
 

Mr. Aspi Bhathena, Editor, Car India, added, “What struck me immediately after getting into the car and driving it is how smooth and linear the power delivery is. The interior is simple but well laid-out and the ergonomics are excellent. VinFast may have only started making cars less than a decade ago, but its learning curve is commendable. It has done its homework and has made driving its EVs as safe, relaxing and enjoyable as possible.”
 

Mr. Girish Mallya, Editor, T3, added, “VinFast’s VF 7 winning the EV Car of the Year at the T3 India Technology Awards 2026 is a powerful validation of their bold, uncompromising vision. As one of the world’s few pure-play EV manufacturers that has completely abandoned ICE technology, VinFast channels 100% of its focus, innovation, and resources into electric vehicles. This win celebrates not just engineering excellence but a genuine commitment to a sustainable, all-electric future.”
 

In 2026, VinFast continued to strengthen its momentum in India through rapid portfolio expansion and long-term ecosystem development. Following the launch of the VF 6 and VF 7 electric SUVs, both awarded 5-star Bharat NCAP safety ratings, the company further expanded into the electric MPV segment with the premium 7-seat VF MPV 7. VinFast also introduced a range of initiatives aimed at enhancing the ownership experience, including assured resale programmes guaranteeing up to 90% vehicle value, free EV charging through V-Green-operated stations until March 2029, industry-leading warranty coverage, accessible financing solutions with local partners, and a rapidly expanding retail, after-sales, and service network across key regions in India.

New Delhi [India], May 26: Anjali Rathore’s journey is a story of passion evolving into purpose—where music is not just an art, but a way of life.

A dreamer from a young age, Anjali started singing at the age of nine, discovering a deep and natural connection with music. Her voice soon became her identity, earning her recognition and admiration throughout her school years, where she won numerous competitions and accolades. In college, her artistic expression deepened as she explored original compositions, spiritual recitations, Sanskrit mantras and verses, and traditional Indian texts like the Ramcharitmanas, reflecting her innate connection with culture, devotion, and the sacred power of sound.

At a time when music was not widely embraced as a mainstream career, Anjali chose a more conventional path. She pursued Travel & Tourism Management and built a successful career in the aviation and travel industry. Working with renowned organizations such as MakeMyTrip, Air Mauritius, Azerbaijan Airlines, and Air Arabia, she rose to the position of Business Sales Manager. Yet, even amidst corporate success, her inner calling for music remained unwavering.

Determined to stay connected to her passion, Anjali continued her training in Indian classical music—initially through formal institutions and later under the guidance of her Guru, Vishudhi Shashwati Mandal ji. Over the years, she has performed on prominent stages and collaborated with leading brands like ICICI Bank, SBI, HT, Sonatech, and Adiveda, establishing herself as a versatile vocalist known for ghazals, retro Bollywood, and devotional music.

After nearly a decade of dedicated vocal training and self-discovery, Anjali made a defining choice—to step away from her corporate career and fully embrace music as her life’s purpose.

Deeply rooted in emotion and expression, Anjali believes in the profound healing power of music. Her work extends beyond performance—she uses music as a medium to support mental well-being, creating experiences that are calming, uplifting, and deeply immersive. This journey led her to explore the intersection of music and wellness, eventually becoming a certified Yoga and Meditation Coach from Rishikesh.

Over time, she has developed a versatile repertoire, performing across genres including:

Indian Folk | Sufi | Retro Bollywood | Bhajans—each delivered with authenticity and emotional depth.

Anjali is also known for her unique concept of Bhajan Clubbing—a contemporary fusion where devotion meets modern soundscapes. This innovative format blends spiritual depth with vibrant energy, creating experiences that resonate with diverse audiences.

Today, her performances span a wide spectrum of curated experiences, including:

• Luxury Weddings & Private Celebrations
• Corporate & Lifestyle Events
• Spiritual & Wellness Gatherings
• Exclusive Bhajan Clubbing Nights

As the Founder of Bhaav Bharat Global Events Pvt. Ltd., Anjali is committed to promoting Indian classical music and holistic wellness through yoga and music meditation. Her vision is to create soulful, high-vibrational experiences that heal, uplift, and reconnect people with their inner joy.

Anjali Rathore is not just a performer—she is an experience, bringing together music, emotion, and energy to create moments that stay with her audience long after the performance ends.

New Delhi [India], May 26: The demand for hair wigs in Delhi has increased noticeably in recent years. This shift reflects a deeper change in how people in urban environments think about appearance and confidence. 

“Grooming is no longer treated as an occasional concern,” note industry observers. “Hair solutions like hair wigs are actually becoming part of everyday lifestyle choices.”

Industry estimates suggest that the Indian hair wigs and extensions market generated close to USD 289 million in 2025. The steady growth highlights how non-surgical grooming solutions are gaining wider acceptance across modern city populations.

Delhi offers a clear lens into this transformation. The city’s fast-paced environment and evolving lifestyle expectations are influencing how individuals think about their appearance. As a result, interest in hair wigs in Delhi is expanding among both men and women who are seeking practical and adaptable solutions.

Hair Concerns Are Starting Earlier Than Before

Hair-related concerns are also appearing earlier than they traditionally did. Hair thinning was once commonly associated with the late thirties or forties. However, dermatological observations from clinical practitioners indicate that visible thinning can now begin as early as the late twenties or early thirties.

This shift is important because it occurs during a stage when individuals are actively building their careers and shaping their social identity. Appearance tends to carry more weight during this phase, both in professional environments and in social settings.

As a result, hair-related changes are being noticed and addressed much earlier than before. People are becoming more conscious of these changes and how they influence their everyday appearance. This early awareness is one of the key reasons behind the growing interest in solutions such as hair wigs in Delhi. 

A Smart Choice for Natural Hair Appearance

The demand for a hair wig for men in Delhi is increasing as more people look for simple and effective ways to improve their hair appearance. Modern hair wigs are designed to look natural, feel comfortable, and match different hairstyles easily. Many men dealing with hair thinning or baldness prefer using a hair wig because it offers an instant change without surgery or lengthy treatments. From professional looks to casual styling, a well-designed hair wig helps men maintain confidence and achieve a more youthful appearance in daily life.

Along with men’s grooming solutions, the popularity of a hair wig for women is also growing rapidly. Women often choose wigs to add volume, experiment with new hairstyles, or manage hair loss concerns comfortably. Today, both men and women can find lightweight, natural-looking wigs that blend easily with their facial features and personal style. As grooming and appearance continue to become important lifestyle choices, the demand for quality hair wigs in Delhi keeps rising among people looking for stylish and confidence-boosting hair solutions.

Factors Shaping the Growing Demand for Hair Wigs in Delhi

The rise in demand is not driven by a single reason. It is the result of several overlapping changes in how people live, work, and present themselves in urban environments. Alongside the broader shifts already discussed, a few additional factors are quietly strengthening this trend:

• Stronger emphasis on first impressions, especially in competitive work environments
• Greater day-to-day visibility, both online and in social settings
• Changing grooming expectations, influenced by global styling trends
• Limited time for long-term treatments, making quick solutions more practical
• Better awareness of non-surgical options, making wigs easier to consider

These factors are not affecting all individuals in the same way. Their impact often varies across age groups.

Individuals in their late twenties and early thirties are responding more proactively to hair wigs in Delhi. They are exploring hair solutions earlier, often at the first signs of thinning. The focus at this stage is on maintaining consistency in appearance rather than waiting for visible progression.

Those in their late thirties and forties tend to approach the situation differently. Their decisions are often shaped by practicality and long-term comfort. They are not choosing hair wigs in Delhi out of the need to experiment. Instead, they are more likely to look for reliable solutions that fit seamlessly into their routine.

One shift is clearly visible across both groups. Grooming decisions are becoming more intentional. People are no longer reacting late. They are making earlier and more informed choices. 

As a result, interest in hair wigs in Delhi continues to grow among individuals who are looking for solutions that offer ease, predictability, and minimal disruption to their daily lives.

How Behaviour and Decision-Making Around Hair Solutions Are Evolving

The shift toward hair wigs in Delhi is also reflected in how individuals make grooming decisions. Earlier, most people would take action only after hair loss became clearly visible or difficult to manage. Today, that approach is changing.

The process is becoming more gradual and intentional. Instead of waiting, individuals are paying closer attention to early changes and responding sooner.

This shift often begins with small adjustments. 

• Grooming routines become more focused. 
• Styling choices are reconsidered. 
• Over time, this leads to exploring solutions that offer consistency and ease in everyday life.

Experts at Radiance Hair Studio observe this change clearly in client behaviour.

“Earlier, most individuals would wait until hair loss became severe before considering solutions,” says a senior specialist at Radiance. “Today, people are far more proactive. They explore options earlier because they want to maintain consistency in how they look.”

What stands out is not just the timing, but the intent behind these decisions. Hair concerns are no longer treated as isolated issues. They are increasingly seen as part of everyday lifestyle and self-presentation.

What This Shift Means for Choosing the Right Hair Solution

The process of choosing the right option is also becoming more complex as more individuals begin exploring hair solutions earlier. The decision is no longer limited to appearance alone. It now involves considerations around comfort, maintenance, and how well a solution fits into everyday routines over time.

This is where expert input is starting to play a more important role. It is no longer about directing choices. Instead, it focuses on helping individuals understand what works best for their specific needs. Specialists working closely in this space, including those at Radiance Hair Studio, note that many individuals today are seeking clarity rather than quick answers.

“One of the most common questions we hear is not ‘what looks best,’ but ‘what will feel right every day,’” shares a professional at Radiance.

This shift highlights an important change. The focus is moving beyond selecting a solution to understanding how that choice will function in real life. As a result, informed guidance is becoming an increasingly important part of how people approach hair wigs in Delhi.

Want Help?

Radiance Hair Studio is here to help you find the right hair solution with ease and confidence. Our hair experts do not just offer the best quality hair wigs in Delhi. We also take the time to understand what works best for you and suggest solutions that feel like “you”. That is why so many people trust us for natural, comfortable, and personalised results.

New Delhi [India], May 26: Interestingly, John Louis’ story of becoming a writer begins as the best literary stories so often do, not in a writing workshop or a university seminar room, but in the quiet book-lined sanctuary of a school library. What is more is that his storytelling journey is one shaped by observation, resilience, lived experience, and a lifelong relationship with stories. Born into a middle-class family and raised in the destiny city of Visakhapatnam after his family relocated there in the 1960s, John grew up in an environment where opportunities were modest, but imagination was limitless. As the eldest of four siblings, he shouldered responsibilities early in life, yet amidst the realities of a hardworking household, he found refuge in books that quietly laid the foundation for his future as a storyteller.

A defining influence during his formative years was St. Aloysius High School, one of the region’s most respected educational institutions. For John, the school library became more than just a room filled with books; it became a sanctuary of possibility. He was among its most dedicated visitors, devouring stories with remarkable intensity. So immersed was he in fictional worlds that he often hid novels by Enid Blyton and the iconic ‘The Hardy Boys’ beneath his textbooks during lessons, unable to resist the pull of storytelling even in the classroom. Alongside this growing passion for reading, emerged a natural affinity for language and expression, which led him to participate actively in the school magazine committee. Now, this was indeed an early indication that storytelling would eventually become more than just a personal escape for John Louis.

Despite his literary inclinations, John initially pursued a professional path that is grounded in practicality. He earned a degree in Mechanical Engineering and began his career in the late 1980s with one of India’s leading business houses at the age of twenty-one. His work in the industrial project execution took him across India and occasionally abroad, exposing him to a vast range of landscapes, cultures and human experiences. Throughout the 1990s and early 2000s, he worked in places as varied as the remote hinterlands of Bihar, Odisha, Tamil Nadu, and the serene Andaman Islands. These journeys proved deeply formative, not only professionally but creatively too. They allowed him to observe people from different walks of life, understand regional nuances and witness the quiet complexities of the human ambition, struggle, morality and survival. Well, all those elements that would later find their way into his story-telling.

Although the desire to write had always remained alive within him, it was only after relocating to Oman for a career move that he found the stillness and the focus required to pursue writing seriously. With the much-reduced travel and a more settled routine, John finally got the opportunity to begin transforming years of accumulated experiences and observations into narrative form. This period marked the beginning of his formal literary journey and led to the completion of his debut novel, “Final Conquest.” Moreover, the process of writing this novel not only deepened his understanding of storytelling as a craft but also strengthened his conviction that he had something very meaningful to contribute in the field of literature.

Balancing the professional commitments alongside the family responsibilities, John continued refining his voice and eventually completed his second novel, “Killer’s Burden” as well. It is indeed noteworthy that the novel reflects a writer deeply interested in the psychological consequences of human choices rather than superficial suspense alone. At its core, “Killer’s Burden” is not merely a thriller; rather it is a layered exploration of guilt, identity, emotional conflict and moral disintegration. Through the story of Samuel, a man haunted after murdering his twin brother Danny, author John Louis crafts a brilliant narrative where the greatest pursuit is not external law enforcement but the relentless burden of one’s own conscience.

What makes this remarkable novel, “Killer’s Burden” particularly compelling is its emotional and psychological depth. As Samuel becomes entangled in the complicated world his brother inhabited, one shaped by political ambition, corruption, business interests and fractured relationships, the story gradually transforms into a meditation on guilt, transformation, and the uncomfortable truths people carry within themselves. Furthermore, the readers and critics alike have appreciated the novel’s ability to sustain the suspense, while simultaneously delivering the emotionally nuanced character development. John’s storytelling avoids sensationalism; instead, it relies on slow-burning tension, layered relationships, and the quiet unraveling of the human psyche.

Additionally, John Louis’ writing style reflects the maturity of someone who has spent decades in observing life beyond the literary circles. The diverse experiences accumulated through years of travel, corporate leadership and the exposure to varied social realities lend authenticity to his narratives. Even his secondary characters possess depth and emotional credibility, reinforcing the realism that anchors his fiction. Whether exploring ambition, family dynamics, betrayal, or redemption, John approaches storytelling with patience and psychological insight. Outside of writing, he remains an avid reader and passionate traveler, continuing the habits that first shaped his imagination decades ago. He also enjoys playing chess, a fitting pastime for a writer whose narratives often revolve around strategy, consequence, and human complexity. 

Having taken early retirement, John is now based in Kerala, where he has chosen to dedicate himself fully to writing, the passion that quietly began in the corridors of a school library many years earlier. Without a shred of doubt, John Louis stands tall as a thoughtful literary voice whose work bridges the emotional depth with the narrative tension. His journey reflects the enduring power of observation, persistence and lived experience in shaping authentic storytelling. Through his novels, he continues to explore the fragile intersections between morality and emotion, proving that the most compelling thrillers are often not about crime alone, but about the human conscience struggling to survive its own truths.

Manish Mishra (President, Pehal)

Basti (Uttar Pradesh) [India], May 26: In India’s eternal Sanatan tradition, whenever an auspicious breeze enters a household, it arrives wrapped in melody, rhythm, and song. One timeless example of this is Sohar — a traditional folk song sung to celebrate the birth of a child.

There is no exact historical record of when the tradition of singing Sohar began in India, because Sohar is not merely a song; it is a sacred melody born from the very soil of this land. It naturally flows from the voices of women as they welcome a newborn’s first smiles and playful gestures. The lyrics of Sohar carry the fragrance of a mother’s affection, the blessings of elders, and the echoes of centuries-old traditions. Sohar is not just a folk song; it is a collective expression of joy that unites the entire family and society in celebration of new life.

If we delve into the meaning of the word Sohar, we find that its name is as sweet and pleasant as the songs themselves. Elders and scholars believe that the word originated from the Sanskrit root “Shobhan,” meaning “beautiful” or “pleasing to the heart.” Over time, through the streams of local dialects, Shobhan gradually transformed into Sohar. Even today, in the Bhojpuri region, people say “Bada Sohal Lagta” when they find something delightful. Some also believe the word comes from “Shokhar,” meaning “the remover of sorrow,” because the birth of a child drives away grief from a household. The journey to motherhood itself is filled with immense pain and struggle, and when a child is finally born, that child wipes away all the mother’s sorrows. In the joy of welcoming this “remover of sorrow,” Sohar naturally bursts forth.

Although this tradition still survives in many rural parts of India, the changing global environment has slowly distanced us from this historic cultural heritage. Our organization, Pehal, has taken a pledge to give this living pulse of Indian culture a global identity.

The Pehal organization has provided financial assistance of one lakh rupees to 100 self-help groups in Basti district of Uttar Pradesh for preparing “Ram Ji Ka Peda.” These women will prepare the sacred offering while singing “Ram Ji Ka Sohar.” In addition, Pehal has distributed sewing machines to one thousand women for making “Ram Ji Ka Jhola” (cloth bags dedicated to Lord Ram). These women, too, will sing “Ram Ji Ka Sohar” while preparing the bags.

Taking this historic Sohar tradition to the global stage, Pehal is organizing a grand event on 25 May 2026. In this program, 2,100 women from Basti district will sing “Ram Ji Ka Sohar” together in one voice and one rhythm. This will be a remarkable record in itself and is being submitted for inclusion in the Guinness Book of World Records. On one hand, this event will provide global recognition to Sohar, and on the other, it will symbolize the emergence of a New India.

Since independence, India had long suffered from the scourge of Naxalism. Through violent ideology, Naxal groups inflicted countless wounds upon the soul of the nation. However, under the leadership of the Hon’ble Prime Minister and through the determined efforts of the Hon’ble Home Minister, the country has now become completely free from Naxalism. After 31 March 2026, in many ways, a New India was born.

To honor the efforts of the Home Minister and celebrate the birth of this New India, the voices of 2,100 women from Basti have risen in Sohar, whose collective resonance will be recorded in the Guinness Book of World Records on 25 May.

We have all heard the famous line:

“Jug-jug jiya su lalanwa, bhawanwa ke bhaag jagal ho”

(“May the child live forever; the fortune of the household has awakened.”)

On this auspicious rise of a New India, our mothers and sisters will pray through Sohar for this nation to prosper for generations to come. When the entire country, along with Basti, celebrates India’s achievements like one united family through the melodies of Sohar, the joy becomes many times greater. These songs of Sohar will travel through digital waves and reach every household across the nation.

Every birth — whether of a child or of a national dream — is a divine blessing. And whenever a new light descends upon the earth, it should be welcomed with the sacred words of Sohar. This tradition is a grand offering of women’s creative power, emotionally nurturing our society for centuries. Let us all pledge that the tradition of Sohar becomes an ornament in the voice of every Indian welcoming this newborn, peaceful, and prosperous India.

(The author is the President of Pehal organization and a social worker.)

New Delhi [India], May 25: Paris Saint-Germain, an official partner of 1xBet, have defended their title and become France’s best team for the 14th time in their history.

Intriguing title race + historic victory in Le Classique

Last season’s Ligue 1 was a showcase of the Parisians’ total dominance. Luis Enrique’s side secured the title before the end of the campaign, finishing almost 20 points clear of their nearest competitors. This season brought a different story, treating fans to plenty of drama. The title was decided at the end of the campaign in a H2H clash between France’s best teams.

Lens had a sensational season, putting up a strong fight against the reigning champions, but in the end, the Parisians came out on top and claimed their 14th title. Luis Enrique’s men defended their title with flying colors, putting on a spectacular show in every match with an emphasis on attack. By the winter break, Paris Saint-Germain had already broken the club’s scoring record, netting at least one goal in 40 consecutive home games.

At the same time, the Red-and-Blues remained open to bold experiments and new debuts. In the first half of the Ligue 1 season, no fewer than 17 different players scored for the team. Luis Enrique gave young talents the chance to prove themselves, and they took full advantage of it. Ousmane Dembélé, Khvicha Kvaratskhelia and Désiré Doué remained the star performers of the Parisian football orchestra, but it was this season that Ibrahim Mbaye, Senny Mayulu and Quentin Ndjantou really made their mark.

Another highlight of Paris Saint-Germain’s triumphant season was their 5-0 thrashing of Olympique de Marseille on matchday 21 of Ligue 1. This was the Parisians’ biggest victory in the history of Le Classique in the French league.

The Red-and-Blues have become France’s top-scoring team by a wide margin, and complemented their league title with a place in the Champions League final for the second consecutive year. Luis Enrique’s side are rightly considered the most stylish in European football – they not only win, but do so beautifully.

1xBet congratulates Paris Saint-Germain on their well-deserved Ligue 1 title and wishes its official partner the best of luck in the Champions League final!

WirtschaftsWoche, founded in 1926 and celebrating its centenary this year, is Germany’s largest weekly business publication, widely read by senior executives, institutional investors and corporate decision-makers across Germany, Austria and Switzerland. Its annual ‘Best Stocks in the World’ analysis is one of the most widely cited rankings of listed companies in the German-speaking region.

The independent study evaluated more than 2,000 listed companies across 35 industries worldwide. Over the five-year period from 2021 to 2025, TVS Motor Company delivered an average annual Total Shareholder Return of approximately 51 per cent — the highest in its global category, ahead of established peers from Japan, China, the United States, and India.

Notably, this profile aligns closely with the criteria the study identifies for resilient companies — profitable, growth-oriented, and financially disciplined, with reserves to withstand volatile market conditions.

Professor Sir Ralf Speth, Chief Mentor, TVS Motor Company, comments, “This recognition by WirtschaftsWoche and BCG is the result of the consistent implementation of Chairman Sudarshan Venu’s clear strategic vision. His passion for the company, deep understanding of markets and customers, openness to new technology, and attentiveness to the workforce create a values-based environment in which creativity and performance can flourish. Equally exemplary is the strong commitment to social responsibility.

With this mindset - the ‘TVS Way’ - and under outstanding corporate leadership, the TVS team wins numerous international awards year after year, including accolades for environmental stewardship and exceptional product quality. TVS is synonymous with quality and a strong commitment to the environment, rooted in the skill of its people and built on manufacturing excellence.

I am confident TVS Motor Company is strongly positioned for the future - delivering sustainable growth, strengthening global competitiveness and creating long-term shareholder value - recognition goes to the whole TVS team for their hard work and commitment."

In its most recent financial year (2025–26), TVS Motor Company has built further on this momentum, recording its highest-ever annual sales of 5.89 million units, a 24 per cent increase year-on-year, with international business growing 33 per cent across more than 90 markets.

Patna (Bihar) [India], May 25: Renowned Transformation Coach and Image Consultant Shipra Singh made a compelling impact as a Guest Speaker at the Bihar AI Summit 2026, held on May 23 & 24, 2026, at Patna, Bihar. The landmark event, themed “AI for Transformation. Bihar for the World,” brought together technology leaders, innovators, policymakers, and students from across the country.

Speaking on AI in Healthcare, Shipra drew a powerful parallel with the evolution of telephony — from landlines to smartphones — to underscore how adapting to change is the key to thriving with AI. She urged the audience, particularly the younger generation, to embrace this technological shift not with fear, but with readiness.

“Adapting to change will make you comfortable to live with AI, to progress with AI, and to work with AI. Now it’s time to work together — human and AI,” she said, to an enthusiastic response from the audience.

Shipra highlighted a critical insight on the future of healthcare in India — urging students and innovators to think ahead. She pointed out that as India’s current young population ages over the next 10–15 years, the country will face significant healthcare challenges for the 60+ age group, making it imperative to begin research and solution-building now. She challenged students to identify one focused problem and develop AI-driven solutions for it.

She also emphasised that data is the foundation of meaningful AI — stressing that without proper data collection, particularly through prevention-first approaches in healthcare, AI cannot deliver its true potential.

Encouraging Bihar’s entrepreneurial and tech spirit, she said the state has a unique energy that sets it apart, and called on innovators to bring their ideas to platforms like this for mentorship and promotion. “Bihar is going to be at the top in this platform,” she affirmed confidently.

Shipra was warmly felicitated by the organisers of the Bihar AI Summit 2026 on stage, in recognition of her valuable contribution to the discourse on AI adoption and human transformation. She also participated in a high-energy panel discussion alongside senior dignitaries and industry leaders, further amplifying her message of purposeful, people-first AI integration.

Her presence at the Summit reinforced a vital truth — that technology transforms only when people are ready to transform with it.

Shipra Singh is an ICF-credentialed Transformation Coach and Image Consultant with over 10 years of experience working with individuals and organisations across India and internationally, including clients in Yakutsk (Russia) and France. She is the Founder & Director of Skature Consulting — focused on career coaching and leadership development — and AdyaHue Pvt Ltd — dedicated to creative empowerment and personal branding.

As a coach, she works with individuals transforming their careers, health, wealth, and relationships. She is the proud titleholder of Mrs. Universe Creativity 2023 (Philippines) and TIGP Mrs. India 2023 Runner-Up. She is also deeply committed to women empowerment initiatives.

Award-Winning Author & Ayurvedic Authority Makes Her Mark on the Croisette — And Seeks Collaborators for a Landmark Documentary on Indian Philosophy 

New Delhi [India], May 23: Dimple Jangda — National Bestselling Author, Celebrity Ayurvedic and Gut Health Coach, and Founder of Prana by Dimple Jangda — attended the Cannes Film Festival in May 2026 as she ventured into the world of documentary filmmaking. Ms. Jangda brought with her a singular creative vision: to capture India’s ancient philosophical and scientific traditions — Ayurveda, Yoga, Vedic cosmology, and classical life sciences — through the modern cinematic lens, for a global audience hungry for wisdom rooted in millennia of lived experience. Editors, producers, filmmakers, and creative collaborators were invited to connect with Ms. Jangda at Cannes to explore co-production, distribution, and storytelling partnerships for this landmark documentary project. 

The Red Carpet — Where Two Worlds Met

Dimple Jangda walked the iconic red carpet steps of the Palais des Festivals in an outfit that stopped the Croisette in its tracks — a deep crimson column gown draped in an intricate handcrafted gold lattice, at once a homage to Marilyn Monroe’s timeless elegance and a celebration of India’s extraordinary textile artistry. The fusion of French haute couture sensibility with rich Indian fabric traditions was no coincidence: it was a deeply personal statement about the two cultures she has carried within her all her life. 

Ms. Jangda grew up attending a convent school in Chennai founded by French nuns in the 17th century — an institution that wove French language, culture, and philosophy into her earliest years. In Mumbai, her closest circle included friends from Paris, Normandy, Nantes, Nice, Angers, Brittany, and Grenoble. France, for Dimple Jangda, was never a foreign country — it was a second home carried in language, in friendship, and in memory. Something has always brought her back to France. This time, it was Cannes. 

“My outfit was my story — the gold lattice draped over crimson was India and France woven together, exactly as they have been in my life. I have always been a child of both worlds.” 
— Dimple Jangda, Cannes 2026 

France Meets India — A Week of Couture 

Across the five days of Cannes 2026, Ms. Jangda presented a carefully curated wardrobe that honoured both her Indian heritage and her lifelong love of French style. Each look was a dialogue — between East and West, antiquity and modernity, restraint and radiance. 

The Documentary Vision 

India is home to some of the world’s oldest and most sophisticated knowledge systems — Ayurveda, Yoga, Jyotish, Vastu, and Vedic philosophy — that predate modern medicine by thousands of years and are now being validated by cutting-edge science. Yet these traditions have remained largely misunderstood, mythologised, or inaccessible to the world at large. 

Ms. Jangda’s documentary sought to change that. Drawing on her decade of clinical practice, academic research, and global outreach spanning 147 countries, she set out to create a visually immersive, intellectually rigorous, and emotionally resonant film that bridges ancient Indian wisdom with the modern scientific panorama — for audiences everywhere. 

A Storyteller Born from Two Worlds

Ms. Jangda’s path to Cannes was itself a remarkable story. A graduate of the University of Madras with a Bachelor of Science in Visual Communication — where she studied filmmaking, photography, multimedia, and the arts — she later earned a Gold Medal Master’s degree in International Business and Finance. She worked as a copywriter in advertising in Chennai, a television reporter in Bangalore, and a TV Producer with CNBC in Mumbai, before transitioning into investment banking in New York City. 

At the height of her corporate career, she made the rare and courageous choice to walk away. She embarked on a journey across 11 countries in 10 months — travelling remote Indian countryside, visiting ancient ruins and village healers — and rediscovered Ayurveda as both a personal calling and a civilisational truth. She returned to Mumbai and founded Prana, now one of the world’s most recognised platforms for Ayurvedic nutrition and preventive healthcare. At Cannes, she returned to her first creative love: visual storytelling 

Global Authority in Ayurvedic Nutrition

Ms. Jangda is the National Bestselling Author of two critically acclaimed books: The Ultimate Healing Code and Heal Your Gut, Mind & Emotions — a #1 national bestseller in Mental & Spiritual Healing, ranked #4 in Healthy Living and Wellness, and among the Top 100 books worldwide, published in six languages: English, Hindi, Marathi, Punjabi, Gujarati, and German. 

She is the Founder of Prana Healthcare Centre (est. 2017), an Ayurveda clinic which treated over 5,600 patients from 74 countries. Her Prana Academy for Ayurvedic Life Sciences enrolled more than 21,000 students from 90 countries. Prana was featured as a business case study by Routledge / Taylor & Francis, UK, in Doing Business in South Asia 

Reach & Cultural Influence

With over 2.4 million social media followers and podcast listeners in 147 countries, Ms. Jangda commanded one of the most engaged audiences in global wellness and Ayurvedic health. Her television series Ayurveda Diaries, broadcast in English, Hindi, and Telugu, reached over 45 million viewers. 

She conducted more than 300 workshops for 85,000 participants at the London Stock Exchange, KPMG London, Ricoh Poland, and BNP Paribas. Her client roster included Juhi Chawla, Dev Patel, Anjali Tendulkar, Rani Mukherjee, Masaba Gupta, Neena Gupta, Huma Qureshi, Aditi Rao Hydari, Rakul Preet Singh, Tripti Dimri, Kajal Aggarwal, Divya Dutta, Tahira Kashyap, Lisa Ray, and the Dolce & Gabbana team from Paris, among many others. 

Invitation To Collaborate

Ms. Jangda arrived at Cannes to meet filmmakers, directors, producers, distributors, and creative collaborators who shared her passion for stories that challenge conventional thinking and expand the boundaries of human knowledge. 

She invited conversations around co-production, distribution, creative partnerships, and editorial collaboration for her documentary on Indian philosophy and ancient sciences. This remains an open invitation — to be part of a film that could redefine how the world understands India’s extraordinary philosophical and scientific heritage.

Ajitesh Korupolu, CEO and founder of ASBL in a panel discussion at Way2News conclave

During a panel discussion on economy and business strategies, ASBL Founder and CEO, Ajitesh Korupolu, shared a highly optimistic vision for the city, praising the Way2News team for hosting the event and highlighting why Hyderabad is uniquely positioned for greatness. Korupolu further emphasized the immense multiplier effect of the sector, noting that real estate drives the entire economy forward through its linkages with over 250 ancillary industries including cement, steel, logistics, and retail, while acting as India's second-largest employer. "Hyderabad is one of the rarest cities in India because we don't depend on just one industry," Korupolu noted during the panel. "We have IT, pharma, aerospace, defense tech, and data centers. In fact, 47% of all new Global Capability Centers (GCCs) coming to India are choosing Hyderabad. With the government’s excellent model of building infrastructure first and allowing development to follow, Hyderabad is well on its way to becoming the deep tech capital of India."

He highlighted that the growth in Hyderabad's suburban and outer areas is a great example of smart planning. The government builds consistent infrastructure first, and there is plenty of land and water available. By introducing policies gradually instead of all at once, the state avoids sudden market shocks, creating a stable, long-term environment where both builders and home buyers can thrive.

This forward-thinking perspective aligns perfectly with why ASBL, a prominent real estate developer in Hyderabad, received the decade's top innovation title. The company was recognized for its work in changing how homes are designed, built, and managed. In a traditional real estate landscape, developers often operate in a blind spot, severely lacking the data and consumer insights needed to actually improve the living experience. Recognizing this critical gap, ASBL shifted the paradigm by operating less like a conventional builder and more like a technology company that happens to do real estate. By embedding technology into every single stage of the process, the company captures vital data that allows them to address current pain points and proactively design spaces so that future residents don't face these everyday problems. This customer-first mindset, backed by heavy use of data and artificial intelligence (AI), is precisely what earned them the decade’s top innovation title.

ASBL collects and analyzes data to understand the real daily challenges people face and use those insights to design layouts that genuinely make life easier. To tackle the construction problems, they created a "Digital Twin" system where every building is mapped out digitally first, allowing teams to assign tasks clearly and upload proof of work in real-time to keep construction fast, on time, and high quality. Finally, they ensure a smooth buying and living experience by completely digitizing the paperwork process, making it incredibly simple for anyone, including NRIs living abroad, to buy a home without endless physical visits. Once residents move in, they use the Homes by ASBL app to effortlessly manage daily chores, book amenities, and raise service requests.

This tech-forward strategy is already working at a massive scale. ASBL is currently operating 10 million square feet of space, with another 10 million square feet already in the pipeline, deeply focusing on the growth of Hyderabad. By bringing both cutting-edge technology to construction and thought leadership to the state's economic conversations, ASBL's prominent presence at the conclave proved exactly why they are leading the way in shaping how the city lives and grows.

New Delhi [India], May 22: In an era where traditional wisdom and modern science is reshaping healthcare, Asparagus racemosus, popularly known as Shatavari, is emerging as a cornerstone in global herbal medicine. Revered for centuries in India, and increasingly recognized worldwide, this medicinal plant is gaining attention for its multifaceted therapeutic potential, economic value, and role in sustainable healthcare systems.

Shatavari (family: Asparagaceae) is a climber, and characterized by its thin, needle-like cladodes (modified branch-lets), small white fragrant flowers, and tuberous roots. The roots of Shatavari are succulent, white and occur in clusters and possess medicinal properties. The plant exhibits adaptations such as drought tolerance and resilience to diverse ecological conditions. It thrives well in tropical and subtropical climates, and is widely distributed across India, Sri Lanka, Nepal, and parts of Southeast Asia. In India, it is mainly cultivated in Madhya Pradesh, Rajasthan, Uttar Pradesh, and Tamil Nadu.

Deeply rooted in the Indian Knowledge System (IKS), Shatavari holds a revered place in both Vedic literature and Ayurveda. In Ayurvedic texts like the Charaka Samhita and Sushruta Samhita, Shatavari is classified as a Rasayana– a rejuvenating herb believed to promote longevity, immunity, and vitality. It is described as Madhura (sweet) in taste, Sheeta virya (cooling in potency) and beneficial for balancing Pitta and Vata doshas. Shatavari is used in traditional medicine systems across Asia, including Unani and Tibetan medicine. Ethnomedicinal records indicate its use for treating gastrointestinal disorders, nervous conditions, and reproductive ailments.

A growing body of scientific literature supports the role of Shatavari in promoting overall health. Its bioactive constituents, including steroidal saponins, flavonoids, and alkaloids, contribute to its diverse pharmacological actions. Shatavari is widely regarded as a premier herb for women’s health and enhances ovarian function, supports hormonal balance, promotes lactation (galactagogue effect) and helps manage menopausal symptoms. It is often prescribed for conditions such as infertility, menstrual irregularities, and PCOS (Polycystic Ovary Syndrome). In addition, it is beneficial in male reproductive health as well. It improves spermatogenesis, enhances testosterone levels, supports libido and sexual performance, and protects testicular tissue from oxidative stress.

Shatavari exhibits significant gastroprotective properties. It reduces gastric ulcers, enhances mucosal defence, and modulates gut microbiota. Its immunomodulatory effects include activation of macrophages, enhancement of antibody production, and regulation of inflammatory pathways. These properties make it valuable in managing chronic inflammatory and immune-related conditions. Shatavari is recognized for its neuroprotective and anti-stress properties and reduces anxiety and depression. It protects neurons from oxidative damage, enhances cognitive function, and act as an adaptogen that helps the body cope with physical and emotional stress by regulating the hypothalamic-pituitary-adrenal (HPA) axis.

In recent decades, globalization and herbal revival trends have propelled Shatavari into international markets, where it is now included in dietary supplements, functional foods, and integrative medicine protocols. To meet the growing demand, scientific cultivation practices of Shatavari are being promoted. For a better yield and phytochemical quality, a well-drained sandy loam soil with neutral pH, warm tropical to subtropical climatic conditions, good quality seed, or root divisions are desired. The phytochemical profile of Shatavari is highly influenced by environmental factors, age of root and harvesting time along with good agricultural practices. The geographical variations in altitude and soil type affect saponin content. The mature roots harvested between 18-24 months exhibit higher concentrations of active compounds. These variations give rise to different variantswhich necessitates standardization for consistent therapeutic efficacy.

The best practices in industrial production including good agricultural and collection practices (GACP), good manufacturing practices (GMP) and standardization of compounds like shatavarins may be the game changer in herbal industry. The adulteration of Asparagus racemosus with other Asparagus spp., a concern, can be addressed by advanced techniques such as DNA barcoding, HPLC, and spectroscopy for authentication and quality assurance. Recent advances in biotechnology and modern research have opened new avenues for Shatavari cultivation and improvement. Tissue culture for the rapid propagation of disease-free plants, micropropagation for the large-scale multiplication and genetic engineering for the enhancement of bioactive compound production are the technologies which are aiming to ensure sustainability and consistency in its medicinal quality.

Innovations in pharmaceutical science have led to the development of novel formulations. Modern approaches like controlled-release formulations, nanoparticles and nanoemulsions, and liposomal delivery systems are improving bioavailability, stability, and targeted delivery of Shatavari’s active compounds. Similarly, the integration of genomics, proteomics, and metabolomics, identification of biosynthetic pathways, mapping of active phytoconstituents and prediction of drug-target interactions and biocomputational tools can revolutionize Shatavari research.

The future of Shatavari lies in the amalgamation of tradition and technology. With increasing global demand for natural therapeutics, this potential herb is expected to play a pivotal role in integrative medicine, women’s reproductive health, functional foods, nutraceuticals and personalized herbal therapies. The strategic investments in research, policy support, and sustainable cultivation will be crucial. The predictive modeling of bioactivity, optimization of cultivation practices, identification of novel therapeutic targets, supply chain and quality control analytics can accelerate innovation further. Despite its promising potential, the issues like lack of large-scale clinical trials, variability in phytochemical composition, inadequate standardization protocols and overexploitation and ecological concerns pose a considerable challenge in widespread adoption of Shatavari. Bridging these gaps is essential for mainstream acceptance in generating evidence-based medicines from Shatavari. This wonder herb has the potential not only to enhance human health but also to contribute to economic growth and ecological sustainability. The challenge and opportunity lies in harnessing its full potential responsibly and scientifically.

New Delhi [India], May 21: Most seekers arrive at Aryaa Maharaj after long roads. Remedies followed. Mantras repeated. Astrologers consulted. They have tried all, and yet things remain unchanged.

Aryaa Maharaj — an Adhyatmik Margdarshak rooted in Sanatan Dharma — begins where those roads end. Not with the future that needs foretelling, but with the root from which the problem keeps repeating itself.

Yatha Drishti Tatha Srishti. As is the vision, so is the creation. When the seeing changes within, the world outside begins to change with it.

“Vichaaron se judiye, vyakti se nahi.”

Connect with the thought, not the person. This single line is the operating principle behind everything he does.

He Chooses Not To Predict

Aryaa Maharaj chooses not to predict. Not because the future cannot be glimpsed, but because prediction — even when accurate — rarely serves the seeker. It places a person in a passive relationship with their own life, waiting for a written future rather than influencing how it will be met.

His work moves in the other direction. Not to declare what will happen, but to address the inner state through which it will be experienced.

“Agar samasya hai to samadhan bhi jarur hoga — aisa mera manna hai.”

If there is a problem, a resolution must exist. This is what I believe.

Spandan — The Inner Vibration That Shapes Experience

Behind this approach lies a way of seeing that Sanatan tradition has carried for centuries.

Everything is a vibration. Spandan— the inner vibration, the Urja that moves within — is the lens through which Aryaa Maharaj reads life. Thoughts carry vibration. Decisions carry vibration. The quiet unease that persists even when everything seems in place — that too is vibration.

When the inner Spandan is disturbed, patterns repeat regardless of what changes outside. A new job. A new city. A new relationship. The shape changes; the experience does not. And when the inner Spandan shifts, even familiar situations begin to feel different — not because they have changed, but because the inner ground from which they are met has.

A Different Kind Of Door

In a world where darbars are held on microphones and the problems of seekers become public display, his model is different.

A seeker arrives with their problem written quietly on a slip. They leave with the remedies on the other. No microphone. No spectacle. No drama of an individual’s distress. Privacy and dignity are held — even in a public setting.

This is the Samasya Samadhan Sabha. Remedies are self-doable. Access is free.

And there is one principle Aryaa Maharaj states plainly to those who begin sincere practice from the Sabha. If something does not begin to shift in 45 days — if the resonance is not there — he is not the right door, and another should be sought.

“Kisi ki pyaas Ganga se bujhti hai, kisi ki Yamuna se — dono hi satya hai, swachhai.”

In a field where the instinct is to hold every seeker close, this willingness to let one go is what makes the work different.

The Presence He Returns To

Aryaa Maharaj is a devotee of the Ageless Yogi, Shri Devraha Baba Ji — before whom Prime Ministers, ministers, IPS and IAS officers, industrialists and unknown villagers all stood with the same stillness, and whose foresight of an unobstructed Ram Mandir in Ayodhya was vindicated more than three decades after he spoke of it. From that presence, the conviction — true spiritual work moves in silence, not in display.

Ichha Purti Dhaam — A Vision Taking Shape

Beyond the sabhas, beyond the anushthans, beyond any single gathering — Ichha Purti Dhaam is being brought to life as a larger-than-life vision, one that, in time, will take many forms. For now, it takes the form of intention, of gathering, of service freely offered. Rooted in Sanatan values, guided by the spirit of Sankalp Seva — contribution that arises not from obligation but from genuine alignment.

“Dhaam pehle sankalp mein banta hai, phir sthaan mein.”

The Dhaam takes shape in intention before it takes shape in place. Those who connect with it now are already part of what is being built.

“Mano to Shankar, warna pathar.”

New Delhi [India], May 21: In an age where mythology is often reduced to fleeting visuals and simplified narratives, Prashant Kaul’sShiva Codex – 108 Names, 108 Legends emerges as a profound literary offering that seeks to restore depth, nuance, and contemplative engagement with one of Hinduism’s most enigmatic deities—Lord Shiva.

At 41, Prashant Kaul, a Mohali-based Human Resources professional with an MBA in HR and currently serving as a Zonal HR leader in a reputed bank, embodies the balance between corporate discipline and creative pursuit. Originally from Shimla, Kaul brings with him not only professional acumen but also a sustained literary commitment, marking this as his fifth published work—a testament to nearly a decade-long journey in writing.

For Kaul, authorship is less about a singular moment of epiphany and more about a quiet, persistent evolution. “It was never a dramatic decision,” he reflects. “It was about showing up consistently, refining my thoughts, and gradually building the confidence to share them.” This philosophy of steady craftsmanship is evident in the conceptual clarity and structural elegance of Shiva Codex.

The book is anchored in the sacred and symbolic number 108, long revered in Indian spiritual traditions. Each of the 108 names of Lord Shiva is paired with a corresponding legend, offering readers not merely a catalogue of divine epithets but an immersive narrative experience. Through this structure, Kaul decodes the philosophical and symbolic essence behind each name—transforming what could have been a static enumeration into a dynamic exploration of meaning.

What inspired this work is Kaul’s deep fascination with Shiva’s paradoxical nature. “He is the destroyer and the benefactor, the ascetic and the householder, the fierce and the compassionate,” Kaul notes. Recognising that many engage with Shiva only through fragmented popular imagery, he set out to present a more holistic and layered understanding—one that resonates with both traditional seekers and modern readers.

Beyond mythology,Shiva Codex operates as a reflective mirror. It invites readers to engage with Shiva not just as a deity, but as a philosophical archetype. Themes of resilience, detachment, transformation, and inner stillness are interwoven throughout the narratives, encouraging introspection and personal application. The result is a text that is as spiritually enriching as it is intellectually engaging.

Outside of his literary pursuits, Kaul also channels his storytelling instincts into visual narratives through his YouTube channel, Story Safar Ki, where he documents travel experiences—further underscoring his affinity for exploration, both external and internal.

Looking ahead, Kaul remains committed to delving deeper into mythology and spirituality. With an evident passion for Indian philosophical traditions, he envisions expanding his work to explore new interpretations and untold stories, particularly within the rich tapestry of Shaivism.

For aspiring writers, his advice is grounded and pragmatic: begin without waiting for perfection. “Your first draft doesn’t have to be great—it just has to exist,” he emphasises. In a world often paralysed by the pursuit of flawlessness, Kaul’s words serve as a reminder that consistency, authenticity, and patience are the true pillars of creative expression.

Shiva Codex – 108 Names, 108 Legends is not merely a book—it is an invitation to rediscover the sacred through stories, and to find meaning in the timeless dance of creation and dissolution that Shiva so powerfully represents.

Mumbai (Maharashtra) [India], May 20: Krit School of Sports Management successfully hosted “Khel, Khiladi aur Karobar”, a first-of-its-kind sports business e-summit aimed at decoding what truly powers the world of sport—beyond the field of play. Positioned as “The Game Behind the Game,” the initiative brought together leading industry voices to unpack the business, economics, and career realities shaping India’s sports ecosystem.

Designed as a high-impact three-hour virtual experience, the summit guided participants from curiosity to clarity through keynote sessions, fireside conversations, and panel discussions built on Krit’s experiential learning philosophy.

The speaker lineup reflected the breadth of India’s sports industry. It included Joy Bhattacharjya, CEO of Prime Volleyball League and former IPL team director; Siddharth Shanker from Reliance Foundation Youth Sports, driving grassroots sports at scale; and Sameer Pathak, President at PWR (Times Group), who has led global sports partnerships across Coca-Cola, ICC events, FIFA World Cup, and the Olympics.

“We conceptualised the e-summit to bring industry leaders, practitioners and prospective students together to gain insights and a real picture of the industry and its growth trends.”

It is driven by media rights, sponsorship ecosystems, grassroots development, technology, data, and emerging sectors like esports. The summit highlighted how awareness of these elements—and the career opportunities they create—continues to grow among aspiring professionals.

Khel, Khiladi aur Karobar was designed to bridge this gap by offering a clear, insider view of how the industry functions. Sessions such as “How Sports Actually Make Money” broke down sponsorships, league economics, and revenue models, while “Where is the Opportunity?” explored growth areas across grassroots sport, fan engagement, sports tech, and esports.

“Khel, Khiladi aur Karobar is our endeavour to make career planning effective and develop a realistic perspective of a career in sports management, whether for job roles or business aspirations.”

New Delhi [India], May 20: In a significant development for India’s corporate legal industry, PSS Legal, a Boutique Corporate Law Firm based in Chennai, has appointed Rakhi Kapoor as its ‘Chief Wellness Officer’, making it the first corporate law firm in the country to introduce such a leadership role within its organizational structure.

For years, conversations about mental health and emotional well-being were largely absent from the legal ecosystem. Law firms traditionally focused on client delivery and operational efficiency. But the growing pressures of the legal profession, combined with rising awareness of mental wellness, prompted PSS Legal to rethink the culture it fosters for its teams.

Rakhi Kapoor brings more than 25 years of experience in physical, mental, and emotional well-being. Her professional background spans physiotherapy, behavioral wellness, emotional healing, relationship mentoring, diversity and inclusion training, and mental health facilitation.

She is also a POSH Compliance Specialist, a TEDx Speaker, and the author of 26 books in her areas of expertise, including five Amazon India bestsellers.

By integrating wellness into its leadership framework, PSS Legal Advisors has made a statement that emotional resilience and professional excellence are deeply connected. The decision to appoint Rakhi Kapoor as the Chief Wellness Officer is both timely and forward-looking.

Rakhi Kapoor’s role at PSS Legal focuses on fostering a healthier, more emotionally balanced environment for lawyers, both personally and collectively as a team at work. Her responsibilities include mental wellness initiatives, building an inclusive culture, emotional support systems, behavioral awareness programs, and strategies for workplace harmony.

Rakhi works with career-focused women lawyers committed to maintaining both their professional identities and their roles as mothers. She also advises men seeking to move beyond traditional professional norms.

Her expertise spans several specialized areas, including physical and mental health, emotional resilience, prenatal counseling, postnatal well-being, premenopausal and menopausal counseling, and personal mentoring for individual growth.

What sets Rakhi Kapoor’s approach apart is the blend of clinical expertise and psychological insight. With a Bachelor’s degree in Physiotherapy and certifications in behavioral change, mental wellness, nutrition, lifestyle management, gender sensitivity, diversity, inclusion, and POSH training, she has built a multidisciplinary profile that connects physical health with emotional well-being.

Over the years, Rakhi Kapoor has also emerged as a recognized thought leader in conversations about women’s identity, modern parenting, mental wellness, and evolving workplace culture. Her work is focused on helping individuals navigate emotional stress, personal transitions, and relationship challenges while maintaining professional growth and personal balance.

Beyond her professional practice, Rakhi Kapoor has established a strong presence in the literary and public speaking spheres. She has authored 26 books on topics including mental health, emotional transformation, relationships, maternal well-being, and self-development.

Five of her titles have achieved Amazon India bestseller status. Her contributions to literature and social awareness have earned her several national and international honors. Among them are the International Golden Book Awards in 2023 and 2024, the Nari Shakti Award in 2025, and the Rashtriya Pratibha Samman in 2024. She has also received multiple Author of the Year honors for her contributions to social impact writing and emotional wellness awareness.

In recent years, Rakhi Kapoor has been recognized among the 100 Influential Personalities and has received the Global Inspirational Women Award for her mental health advocacy. Her pioneering work in prenatal counseling also earned her the India Social Impact Award in 2022. In the same year, she received the Exceptional Women of Excellence Award from Yuukke. 

Research shows that employee well-being directly affects productivity, communication, leadership quality, creativity, and retention. In high-pressure professions such as law, the need is even more critical.

Within the corporate ecosystem, the role of a Chief Wellness Officer is gradually evolving from a symbolic title to a strategic leadership function. Organizations like PSS Legal are beginning to recognize that employee well-being cannot be treated as an occasional initiative or an annual workshop. It requires continuous engagement, leadership commitment, and structured systems.

Legal professionals often work in environments where precision, urgency, and high expectations are constant. These conditions can quietly lead to emotional exhaustion over time. Industry observers believe that introducing dedicated wellness leadership can help firms build healthier workplace cultures and improve long-term professional sustainability.

The significance of this announcement also lies in what it signals for the future of corporate leadership in India.

For decades, conversations about success in professional environments revolved almost entirely around performance metrics and business growth. Today, companies need to recognize that empathy, emotional intelligence, inclusivity, and psychological safety are equally important to building strong organizations.

According to Rakhi, “PSS Legal operates on the principle that every individual counts. The firm is committed to ensuring no one is overlooked and that all team members are acknowledged and valued, and that they feel secure in PSS Legal’s work environment. Our broader mission is to foster an organizational culture in which empathy, equity, and psychological safety are embedded as operational standards, not merely aspirational goals.”

By becoming the first corporate law firm to appoint a Chief Wellness Officer, PSS Legal Advisors has sparked a new conversation within the legal industry. With Rakhi Kapoor taking on that pioneering role, the spotlight is now firmly on how wellness leadership may shape the future of the legal profession in India.

Shamli (Uttar Pradesh) [India], May 20: India’s growing appetite for stylish yet comfortable fashion is creating new opportunities for emerging apparel brands, and QUEEN SIXTEEN SPECIALISED is rapidly positioning itself at the forefront of this transformation. Founded on September 15, 2020, the premium bottom wear brand has become a rising name in the fashion industry with its unique blend of modern design, comfort-focused clothing, and ambitious retail expansion plans.

Established under the leadership of Founder & CEO Mr. Vaibhav Goyal, QUEEN SIXTEEN was created with a clear purpose — to redefine everyday fashion for women by delivering premium-quality bottom wear that combines elegance, functionality, and affordability. Headquartered in Shamli, Uttar Pradesh, the company has steadily built a strong identity in the Indian fashion market by focusing exclusively on one of the most essential segments of apparel: bottom wear.

Over the past few years, the brand has introduced a wide range of fashion products tailored to modern lifestyles. Its collections include leggings designed for flexibility and comfort, trousers crafted for professional and casual styling, premium denims that bring contemporary fashion trends to life, and palazzos that offer effortless elegance. The company has also expanded into lounge wear and corsets, catering to consumers seeking both relaxation and confidence-driven fashion choices.

According to Mr. Vaibhav Goyal, the company’s growth has been driven by a deep understanding of changing customer preferences across India.

“Today’s consumers want fashion that fits seamlessly into their daily lives. They seek clothing that is stylish, comfortable, durable, and versatile. QUEEN SIXTEEN was built around these expectations, and our focus has always been on delivering products that empower people through fashion,” he said.

The Indian fashion retail market has witnessed significant changes in recent years, particularly in Tier 2 and Tier 3 cities where demand for branded and premium apparel is rising at an unprecedented pace. Recognizing this opportunity early, QUEEN SIXTEEN strategically focused on these emerging markets, allowing the brand to connect with customers beyond metropolitan cities.

Industry observers note that the brand’s success is rooted in its ability to balance affordability with premium aesthetics. By offering trend-driven collections at accessible price points, QUEEN SIXTEEN has successfully attracted a growing customer base that values both quality and style.

Beyond product innovation, the company is now gaining attention for its aggressive franchise expansion strategy. With a target to establish over 100 outlets across India by 2026, QUEEN SIXTEEN is actively inviting entrepreneurs and retail investors to become part of its growth journey.

The company’s franchise model has been designed to simplify the retail business experience for partners. Franchise owners receive comprehensive support from the brand, including store setup assistance, operational guidance, staff training, branding support, and marketing strategies. This structured approach allows partners to focus on customer engagement and business growth while benefiting from the backing of an established fashion brand.

“Our franchise vision is about building a nationwide community of successful business partners. We want aspiring entrepreneurs from every city to experience the growth potential of the fashion industry with the support of a trusted and expanding brand,” Mr. Goyal added.

As competition intensifies in India’s apparel market, QUEEN SIXTEEN continues to stand out through its customer-centric approach and commitment to innovation. Every collection is developed after studying market trends, consumer behavior, and evolving fashion preferences. The company places strong emphasis on fabric quality, fitting, and comfort, ensuring that customers receive products that meet modern lifestyle demands.

In addition to expanding its physical retail presence, QUEEN SIXTEEN is also strengthening its digital footprint to connect with younger and tech-savvy consumers. By integrating modern retail strategies with social media engagement and online branding initiatives, the company aims to create a seamless shopping experience across both offline and online platforms.

The brand’s ambitious roadmap reflects confidence in the future of India’s fashion retail industry. With increasing urbanization, rising disposable incomes, and growing awareness of fashion trends across smaller cities, experts believe that premium affordable fashion brands are likely to dominate the next phase of retail growth in India.

For QUEEN SIXTEEN, the journey ahead is not only about expansion but also about creating a lasting impact in the fashion landscape. The company envisions becoming a household name synonymous with comfort, style, and modern fashion innovation.

From its beginnings in Shamli to its nationwide aspirations, QUEEN SIXTEEN SPECIALISED represents the new generation of Indian fashion brands — ambitious, customer-focused, and ready to redefine how India experiences everyday style.

Ronak Shah Soneta, Founder & Core Strategist, WeHaveAVision

Mumbai (Maharashtra) [India], May 19: In conversation with Ronak Shah Soneta, founder of WeHaveAVision, on building her own business, moving countries, and learning to balance entrepreneurship with motherhood.

When speaking with Ronak Shah Soneta, one quickly realises that her journey into entrepreneurship has been shaped less by big milestones and more by consistency, adaptability, and growing through different phases of life. Now at 32, she reflects on a journey that began at the age of 19 through employment with Dentsu Aegis Network.

Starting professionally in 2014, she worked across PR, branding, influencer marketing, and digital strategy, gradually building experience across fashion, beauty, hospitality, healthcare, and lifestyle sectors.

During our conversation, she recalls how entrepreneurship was never something she had aggressively planned from the beginning.

“I always enjoyed working with brands and understanding storytelling,” she says. “But somewhere along the way, I realized I wanted to create something of my own as well.”

That shift became clearer after her marriage in 2019, during a trip to Barcelona — a phase she describes as an important turning point. Encouraged by her husband, Chintan Soneta, she decided to start WeHaveAVision later that year.

What began with a single client in 2019 slowly grew over time, and today the company has worked with over 148 brands worldwide across fashion, beauty, hospitality, healthcare, luxury, and lifestyle industries. Some of the brands the agency has collaborated with include Paula’s Choice, Pokémon, Dessange Paris, Charles & Keith, La Senza, The Earth Café, and Jindal Cocoa.

Ronak and Chintan later moved to London, where they spent four years before eventually returning to Mumbai. During this phase, Chintan worked in finance while she pursued her MSc in Digital Marketing from University of Westminster, graduating in 2023. It was also during this period that WeHaveAVision was officially registered in the UK.

Speaking about her master’s degree, she shares that the experience gave her a stronger understanding of analytics, consumer behavior, AI-driven marketing, websites, podcasts, and digital strategy.

“It helped me understand how important it is to balance creativity with strategy,” she explains. “You can have great ideas, but understanding audiences and digital behavior changes the way you approach campaigns.”

Over time, WeHaveAVision also expanded into influencer marketing, UGC creation, creator-led campaigns, celebrity management, and luxury events. Today, the agency works with over 400 creators globally and has collaborated with personalities including Masoom Minawala, Anaita Shroff Adajania, Anissa Malhotra Jain, Aashna Shroff, Malvika Sitlani, and Malvika Raaj across India, the USA, UK, Dubai, and Australia.

The company has also worked on lifestyle and luxury events including the Kinjal Bhanushali Ganpati Celebrations, end-to-end management for Sonam Babani’s wedding in Switzerland, and celebrations such as Malvika Raaj’s baby shower.

Ronak Shah Soneta, Founder & Core Strategist, WeHaveAVision

But perhaps the most honest part of the conversation comes when she speaks about navigating entrepreneurship alongside.

“There’s no proper maternity leave when you’re running your own business,” she says candidly. “But at the same time, entrepreneurship also gives you flexibility. You can decide when to slow down, when to pause, and when to reconnect with work.”

She shares how, during postpartum life, even spending a short amount of time reviewing campaigns, signing invoices, overseeing work, or simply checking in with her team helped her maintain a sense of routine and mental balance during an emotionally transformative phase.

“Sometimes work became that one-hour distraction which actually helped me mentally reset before going back to my baby,” she says. “I think over time you realise entrepreneurship and motherhood don’t always have to compete with each other. You slowly learn your own balance.”

Motherhood, she says, did not change her ambition, but it did change her perspective on pace, priorities, and self-expectations. It became less about doing everything perfectly and more about finding balance in a way that worked personally and professionally.

Today, she continues to lead WeHaveAVision from Mumbai alongside a young team of Millennials and Gen Z professionals, working with brands across India, the USA, UK, Dubai, Singapore, and beyond.

And while the business has steadily grown over the years, her approach towards entrepreneurship remains relatively simple — staying consistent, evolving with the industry, and building meaningful work over time.

“Entrepreneurship teaches you resilience, but motherhood teaches you perspective. Both change you in very different ways.”

GEMS Education Global Teacher Prize 2026 winner Rouble Nagi meets His Majesty King Charles III at Buckingham Palace

Over the past two decades, Rouble has established more than 800 learning centres across over 100 marginalised communities in India, transforming abandoned walls into interactive murals that have helped bring more than one million children into formal education.

Sunny Varkey, Founder of the Varkey Foundation, the Global Teacher Prize, and GEMS Education

She attended the Buckingham Palace event alongside education pioneer and philanthropist Sunny Varkey, Founder of the Varkey Foundation, the Global Teacher Prize, and GEMS Education. 

Rouble Nagi, winner of the GEMS Education Global Teacher Prize 2026, said, “It was an honour to meet His Majesty King Charles III at Buckingham Palace. I’m deeply grateful to Sunny Varkey and the Varkey Foundation for their unwavering support of education and for creating platforms like the Global Teacher Prize that shine a light on teachers around the world. This recognition is not just for me, but for the children, young people, and communities we continue to work with every day across India.”
 

Sunny Varkey, Founder of the Varkey Foundation, the Global Teacher Prize, and GEMS Education, said, “We are immensely proud to see Rouble recognised at Buckingham Palace and honoured to meet His Majesty King Charles III. Rouble’s story is a powerful reminder that teachers have the ability to change lives, strengthen communities, and shape a better future for generations to come.”

Central to Rouble’s work is her innovative concept of “Living Walls of Learning.” She transforms abandoned walls into open-air, interactive murals that teach literacy, numeracy, science, hygiene, history, environmental awareness, and social responsibility. These murals are not decorative artworks, but open-air classrooms that draw children into learning, engage parents, and turn entire neighbourhoods into partners in education.

Rouble travels extensively across India, working directly with children in the learning centres and mentoring the teachers who lead them. She has recruited and trained more than 600 volunteer and paid educators, creating a scalable model that meets children where they are – academically, socially, and economically.  

Her classrooms often operate in the most challenging conditions, shaped by poverty, child labour, early marriage, irregular attendance, and a lack of basic infrastructure. Rather than seeing these realities as barriers, Rouble designs education around real life: flexible schedules for working children, hands-on learning using recycled materials, and practical skills that demonstrate immediate value to families. As a result, her programmes have reduced dropout rates by more than 50% and significantly improved long-term school retention. 

The Global Teacher Prize, Global Schools Prize and Global Student Prize, also founded by Sunny Varkey, form a powerful trilogy that celebrates educators, learners, and schools as institutions of innovation and change. Together, the three prizes help spark a 360-degree conversation about what it takes to deliver the best possible education, equipping children to face the future with confidence – while rethinking the future of learning for generations to come. 

Kolkata (West Bengal) [India], May 18: The advice Indian farmers have received for decades was never built for them. Farmneed Agri Business is changing that — one farm, one day, one plan at a time.

The Problem Nobody Fixed

India has 126 million small and marginal farm holdings. Together, they generate 41 per cent of the country’s food grain production, according to the Agriculture Census 2015–16. Yet for decades, these farmers have received agricultural advice built for someone else — district-level bulletins, crop-generalised alerts, and extension services stretched too thin to reach a sub-two-hectare plot at the right moment. The advice was correct on average and useful to no one in particular. Farmneed Agri Business, founded in Kolkata in 2020, was built to fix that.

One Farm. One Day. One Plan.

At the centre of Farmneed Agri Business’s ecosystem is Farmneed Pro — a farmer app that does something the sector has never done at scale: it thinks about your farm, not all farms.

Farmneed Pro feeds four critical data inputs into its embedded AI — crop stage, soil profile, micro-climate conditions, and prevailing pest risk — and returns a personalised farm plan specific to that holding on that day. Two farmers in the same village, growing the same crop at different growth stages, receive different instructions on the same morning. That level of precision is not a feature of what Farmneed Agri Business has built. That is the entire point.

This directly addresses the fundamental design failure of conventional agri advisory: it operates at the wrong resolution for India’s smallholder reality.

Six Products, Zero Redundancy

Farmneed Agri Business did not stop at advisory. Around Farmneed Pro, the company has built five additional products that together form a seamless farm-to-market ecosystem.

Farmneed Procure brings the commodity marketplace to the farmer’s phone — no physical mandi trip required. Expert Eye connects individual farms to agriculture scientists remotely, delivering personalised crop guidance via voice, text, or video. Scout Connect powers Farmneed Agri Business’s Rural Entrepreneur network — local, commission-based agents who onboard farmers, manage their records, and process loans, insurance, and input orders on their behalf. Farmneed Trade digitises the agrochemical trader, connecting live stock and pricing data directly to the farmer-facing platform. Project View gives institutions a 360-degree dashboard to monitor field-level programmes in real time.

Every layer of the Farmneed Agri Business stack extends reach without adding infrastructure cost. That is not accidental — it is the architecture.

Built for the Funding Winter Everyone Else Ignored

India’s agritech sector raised $840 million in 2022. By 2024, that had collapsed to $202 million — a 75 per cent decline in two years, per Inc42’s Annual Indian Startup Trends Report 2025. Models built on perpetual capital injection are now structurally exposed. Farmneed Agri Business was never one of them.

Instead of company-managed centres requiring ongoing subsidy, Farmneed Agri Business built its distribution on Rural Entrepreneurs — village-level agents whose local knowledge becomes a platform asset and whose reach scales without proportional cost.

The Opportunity Is Just Getting Started

India’s agritech market is projected to grow from $9 billion in 2025 to $28 billion by 2030, per Inc42 and StarAgri’s Indian Agritech Market Landscape Report 2025. Current penetration sits at just 2 per cent of the overall agriculture market. The 86.1 per cent of Indian farmers the funded sector has chronically underserved are not a gap in the story — they are the story.

Farmneed Agri Business, with its AI-driven personalised advisory, capital-light distribution, and six-product integrated ecosystem, is the platform built for exactly this farmer, at exactly this moment.

New Delhi [India], May 19: Cross-industry analysis of hundreds of millions of cold emails shows the global inbox placement rate has slipped to 83–84%, while the gap between top and bottom performers has widened sharply. Deliverability experts argue the channel is not dying it is consolidating around the senders who treat infrastructure as a prerequisite, not an afterthought.

Cold email is not broken because of bad writing. It is breaking because most messages never arrive. That is the central finding of a cross-industry analysis compiled by EmaReach, a cold email platform built around a deliverability-first thesis, which aggregates publicly reported benchmarks drawn from hundreds of millions of cold emails sent across major outbound platforms over the past twelve months.

The headline number is stark: the global average inbox placement rate now sits at approximately 83–84 percent, meaning close to one in every six legitimate cold emails is filtered into spam, promotions, or simply never delivered   before the recipient ever has a chance to read a single word.

For sales and marketing teams, the implication is uncomfortable. The quality of the message has become a secondary variable. The primary variable is whether the message lands at all.

Cold email today: the numbers at a glance

Figures synthesized from publicly published benchmark reports across leading outbound platforms.

Why the inbox is harder to land in than ever

Two structural shifts converged over the past eighteen months. The first is enforcement. Google, Yahoo, and   recently, Microsoft has also begun to enforce bulk-sender requirements: authenticated sending via SPF, DKIM, and DMARC, one-click unsubscribe, and spam-complaint rates held below 0.3 percent. Senders who fail these checks are no longer quietly tolerated; their traffic is throttled, junked, or rejected outright.

The second shift is behavioral. Mailbox providers increasingly layer engagement signals on top of technical authentication   whether recipients open, reply, and spend time reading. A sender can pass every technical check and still be filtered if engagement is weak. Perfect authentication with poor engagement no longer guarantees the inbox.

The combined effect is a two-tier market. Senders with disciplined infrastructure cluster well above 90 percent placement. Senders without it fall toward and below the 80 percent line, with reputation damage that compounds rather than degrades linearly, making recovery slow and costly.

The performance gap is now an infrastructure gap

Perhaps the most consequential finding in the latest data is that the difference between elite and average outbound performance is no longer primarily a copywriting difference. It is an infrastructure difference.

Benchmark analyses consistently show the average cold email reply rate hovering around 3.4 percent. But when researchers isolate deliverability, a clear pattern emerges: teams that maintain clean bounce rates and near-zero complaint rates see materially more replies without changing a single word of their copy. Automated inbox warm-up and rotation   tools that keep sender reputation healthy across multiple sending accounts   are the variables that separate campaigns that scale from those that silently die in spam folders.

“The uncomfortable truth for most outbound teams is that they are optimizing the wrong layer. They are A/B testing subject lines while 15 to 20 percent of their pipeline silently dies in spam. You cannot out-write a deliverability problem  a team at 60 percent inbox placement loses to a team at 90 percent every time, regardless of who has the better email.”

  EmaReach Research Team

What separates the senders who still reach the inbox

Across the industry reports, the practices correlated with high inbox placement are consistent and, notably, unglamorous:

•       Authentication as a non-negotiable baseline   SPF, DKIM, and DMARC fully configured and aligned before the first send.

•       Gradual domain and account warm-up   new senders ramping over four to six weeks rather than firing thousands of emails on day one.

•       Predictable, distributed volume   steady daily sends spread across multiple inboxes rather than erratic spikes from a single domain.

•       Relentless list hygiene   verifying addresses before every campaign and holding bounce rates under roughly two percent.

•       Engagement-first sequencing   short, contextually relevant, genuinely personalized messages that earn replies, because replies now feed directly back into placement scores.

For teams who want a practical framework for each of these steps, EmaReach publishes a detailed cold email deliverability guide that walks through the exact ramp-up timelines, authentication checklists, and list-hygiene workflows the company runs for its own customers.

The shift from volume to precision

A second clear theme in the latest data is the collapse of the spray-and-pray model. As AI-generated outreach has flooded inboxes with generic messages, mailbox providers and recipients alike have grown less tolerant of volume. The question has shifted from how many emails a team can send to how precisely it can reach the right person with the right message at the right moment.

Elite outbound teams now reportedly use automation for the bulk of research and sequencing work   not to send more, but to send better. AI-powered email personalization   which produces copy calibrated to each prospect’s role, company context, and trigger signals   is consistently identified as a compounding driver of engagement. Personalized emails earn more replies, replies lift domain reputation, and higher reputation compounds into better placement: a flywheel that generic volume campaigns cannot produce.

Sequences structured around four to seven steps, with the first email capturing the majority of replies and follow-ups recovering the remainder, consistently outperform single-touch campaigns. The operational implication is that the unit of competitive advantage in modern cold email is the sending system, not the individual message.

About EmaReach

EmaReach is an AI-powered cold email platform engineered around a single principle: that inbox placement, not copywriting volume, is the binding constraint on modern B2B outreach. The platform combines automated inbox warm-up, multi-account sending and rotation, AI-assisted message personalization, real-time deliverability monitoring, and a unified reply inbox   so that outbound teams reach the primary inbox from day one rather than rebuilding sender reputation after it has been damaged.

New Delhi [India], May 19: Some battles leave scars that are invisible to the world. Battles fought quietly in hospital rooms, through sleepless nights, difficult treatments, and endless uncertainty. Yet, for many cancer survivors, those scars also become symbols of strength, resilience, and hope.

Honouring these extraordinary journeys, Paras Health organised its flagship initiative ‘Umeed Ke Sitare’ in Gurugram, Haryana, bringing together cancer survivors, doctors, caregivers, and healthcare teams in an emotional celebration of healing and humanity.

The initiative, conceptualised as an extension of Paras Health’s ongoing Umeed Ke Sitare campaign, was created to celebrate survivors who have overcome immense physical and emotional challenges while also recognising the support systems that stood beside them throughout their fight against cancer.

The event became a powerful reminder that cancer treatment is not only about medicine, surgeries, or therapies. It is equally about compassion, encouragement, emotional strength, and the courage to keep moving forward even in the darkest moments.

Survivors shared deeply personal experiences of fear, pain, resilience, and recovery, inspiring others who may still be navigating their own journeys. Families and caregivers were also acknowledged for their unwavering support, often becoming the emotional backbone patients rely upon during treatment.

Speaking at the event, Dr. Dharminder Nagar said that while medical science continues to advance rapidly, healthcare institutions must never lose sight of the human side of healing.

He stated that the future of oncology lies in precision-based diagnosis and personalised treatment, but equally important is ensuring that every patient feels seen, heard, and cared for throughout the journey.

According to him, Paras Health has built an integrated oncology ecosystem with expertise across surgical, medical, and radiation oncology. However, beyond clinical excellence, the institution remains committed to helping patients regain confidence, dignity, and optimism after treatment.

The Group Chief Operating Officer, Paras Health Mr. Vineet Aggarwal “As the cancer burden continues to grow across India, healthcare systems must evolve beyond conventional treatment models and build patient-centric ecosystems that combine clinical excellence with compassionate continuity of care. Today, oncology care is not only about treating disease; it is equally about enabling patients and survivors to navigate one of the most challenging phases of their lives with confidence, support, and dignity.

As cancer cases continue to rise across India, the initiative also highlighted the growing need for awareness around early detection, multidisciplinary treatment approaches, and stronger rehabilitation support for survivors.

More importantly, Umeed Ke Sitare reinforced a message that many patients and families need to hear that cancer may change lives, but with the right support, it does not take away hope.

Through campaigns like these, Paras Health is not only strengthening holistic cancer care but also building a community where survivors are celebrated, stories are heard, and hope continues to shine brighter than fear.

Hyderabad (Telangana) [India], May 19:  As enterprises accelerate investments in artificial intelligence, two newly released books by author and Technoidentity founder Venkat Chitturi, Durable Agents and Built to Endure, examine one of the defining challenges in modern technology: why intelligent systems succeed in controlled environments but fail under real-world operational conditions.

Published by BlueRose Publishers, the books present a systems-first perspective on enterprise AI, operational resilience, and long-term scalability at a time when organizations across industries are struggling to move AI initiatives from experimentation to dependable production deployment.

The books were officially launched at Replay 2026, alongside Samar Abbas, CEO of Temporal Technologies, reflecting growing industry focus on durable orchestration, production reliability, and enterprise-scale AI infrastructure.

At the center of both books is Durable Product Engineering, Technoidentity’s systems-first approach to building resilient, observable, adaptable, and production-grade technology platforms. The framework examines how operational fragility, hidden technical debt, workflow breakdowns, and governance gaps create systems that appear successful in demonstrations but fail under real-world conditions.

Built to Endure explores how modern organizations can create long-term competitive advantage through operational resilience, disciplined execution, scalable systems design, and dependable product architecture in an era increasingly shaped by AI-driven transformation.

Complementing this perspective, Durable Agents focuses on the growing reliability gap between successful AI pilots and enterprise-scale deployment. The book argues that the core challenge in enterprise AI is no longer the intelligence of the model itself, but the orchestration systems surrounding it, including recoverability, coordination, auditability, governance, and human oversight.

The book examines durable agents as production-grade AI systems designed to survive operational failures, preserve decision traceability, coordinate across workflows, and remain reliable in complex enterprise environments.

Speaking about the release, Venkat Chitturi, said, “Most organizations think they have an AI problem when they actually have a systems problem. Intelligence is becoming abundant. What remains rare is durability — systems that can be trusted, audited, adapted, and scaled under real operational stress. The companies that win in the AI era will not simply automate faster. They will build systems that endure.”

Together, the books provide enterprise leaders, CTOs, architects, operators, and founders with a practical framework for building durable systems in the next phase of AI adoption.

Both books are now available on Amazon worldwide:

• Durable Agents: https://www.amazon.in/Durable-Agents-Venkat-Chitturi/dp/9378255248/
• Built to Endure: https://www.amazon.in/Built-Endure-Venkat-Chitturi/dp/9378251803

New Delhi [India], May 19: As India faces a rising cancer burden, healthcare institutions are increasingly recognising that effective oncology care extends far beyond clinical treatment. Reinforcing this belief, Paras Health organised its flagship initiative ‘Umeed Ke Sitare’ in Gurugram, Haryana — a platform dedicated to celebrating cancer survivors while strengthening conversations around compassionate, patient-centric cancer care.

The initiative brought together cancer survivors, doctors, caregivers, oncology specialists, and healthcare teams in a moving celebration of resilience and recovery. Designed as an extension of Paras Health’s widely appreciated Umeed Ke Sitare campaign, the event focused on recognising the courage of survivors while acknowledging the crucial role played by families, caregivers, and medical professionals throughout the treatment journey.

The programme also aimed to create broader public awareness around cancer prevention, early diagnosis, emotional wellbeing, rehabilitation, and survivorship support. With cancer cases steadily increasing across the country, experts highlighted the urgent need for integrated oncology ecosystems that combine medical excellence with emotional and psychological care.

Addressing the gathering, Dr. Dharminder Nagar, Managing Director, Paras Health, said that the future of cancer treatment lies in precision-led and personalised care pathways that improve survival rates while also enhancing patients’ quality of life.

He noted that Paras Health has developed a strong multidisciplinary oncology ecosystem supported by advanced technologies and integrated expertise across surgical, medical, and radiation oncology. However, he emphasised that clinical excellence alone is not enough.

According to him, every cancer journey is deeply personal and emotional. Through Umeed Ke Sitare, the institution aims to ensure that patients feel supported at every stage,from diagnosis and treatment to recovery and rehabilitation. He further added that healing is not limited to medicine but also includes restoring confidence, dignity, and hope.

The Group Chief Operating Officer, Paras Health Mr. Vineet Aggarwal “As the cancer burden continues to grow across India, healthcare systems must evolve beyond conventional treatment models and build patient-centric ecosystems that combine clinical excellence with compassionate continuity of care. Today, oncology care is not only about treating disease; it is equally about enabling patients and survivors to navigate one of the most challenging phases of their lives with confidence, support, and dignity.

One of the key highlights of the initiative was its focus on survivorship, an area often overlooked in mainstream healthcare discussions. Cancer survivors frequently continue to face emotional, financial, and social challenges long after treatment concludes. By creating a platform that honours their journeys, Paras Health is helping build stronger support systems for survivors and their families.

The event also reflected the growing shift in India’s healthcare sector towards more compassionate and integrated treatment models. As oncology care becomes increasingly advanced and technology-driven, healthcare providers are recognising the equal importance of empathy, counselling, rehabilitation, and community support.

Through initiatives like Umeed Ke Sitare, Paras Health continues to champion holistic oncology care while inspiring hope and resilience among patients and communities alike.

The winners represent a diverse mix of learners from different educational, cultural, and regional backgrounds across India, further reinforcing the growing inclusivity, accessibility, and nationwide reach of digitally enabled higher education. Through its merit-led scholarship framework, AONSAT aims to make quality higher education more accessible and create meaningful opportunities for aspiring learners across the country.

Abhishek Kushwaha, PG Topper s 100% Scholarship Recipient, said, “AONSAT has created an incredible opportunity for learners like me who aspire to pursue quality higher education from a reputed institution. Winning a 100% scholarship from Amity University Online has strengthened my confidence and given me a strong foundation to pursue my professional goals.”

Speaking on the overwhelming response, Ajit Chauhan, Chairman, Amity University Online, said, “AONSAT 2026 reflects the evolving aspirations of India’s youth, who are increasingly seeking flexible, future-ready, and globally relevant higher education opportunities. At Amity University Online, we believe that quality education should not be limited by geography or financial barriers. Through initiatives like AONSAT, we are creating a transparent and merit-driven ecosystem that empowers learners and contributes towards building a stronger knowledge economy for the nation.

Raushan Kumar, UG Topper s 100% Scholarship Recipient, Said, “For many students like me, quality higher education from a reputed university often feels like a distant dream. AONSAT has changed that by creating a platform where talent and dedication are truly recognized. Receiving a 100% scholarship from Amity University Online has given me the confidence to pursue my goals with a larger vision and prepare myself for opportunities in a globally connected world. I believe initiatives like AONSAT can inspire and empower thousands of young learners across India to aspire for world-class education and a better future.”

India is currently at a crucial stage in its journey to expand access to higher education, with the National Education Policy (NEP) 2020 aiming to increase the Gross Enrollment Ratio (GER) from the current 28% to 50% by 2035.

Industry and policy reports indicate that India may require nearly 86 million higher education enrolments by 2035 to meet this vision, making scalable digital learning models and scholarship-led initiatives increasingly important for the future of education.

Building on the tremendous response to the inaugural edition, Amity University Online has announced that the second edition of AONSAT will be announced soon, further strengthening its mission to make quality higher education more accessible, affordable, and inclusive for learners across India.

The initiative reflects Amity University Online’s larger vision of enabling education without boundaries through technology-enabled learning models, scholarship support, and scalable digital education platforms. As India moves towards a knowledge-driven economy, initiatives such as AONSAT are expected to play an important role in increasing educational participation, creating awareness around online higher education, and enabling social mobility at scale.

New Delhi [India], May 18: The moving and spiritual musical journey of Abhangwari, conceived by National Award-winning Hindustani classical vocalist Mahesh Kale, has set forth on its 2026 international tour, beginning in Australia. The tour has just concluded its Australia and New Zealand leg across Perth, Brisbane, Sydney, Melbourne and Auckland, marking the first time Abhangwari that has travelled to this part of the world, and will now head to Singapore later this month.

To put it simply, Abhangwari is an emotion, a remembrance, and a shared spiritual experience. Rooted in the centuries-old ‘warkari’ tradition and inspired by the sacred pilgrimage to Pandharpur, the concert series seeks to recreate the essence of the ‘Wari’ through music – a journey where thousands of devotees, known as ‘warkaris’, walk for days across Maharashtra, singing abhangs and chanting the name of Lord Vitthal, in a moving expression of faith, equality, and collective devotion. Having experienced the pilgrimage himself, Mahesh Kale envisioned Abhangwari as a way to bring that profound sense of devotion, surrender and shared energy to those who may never physically undertake the journey – an idea he took across Europe, the United States and Canada in 2025, and now brings to Australia and Singapore for the first time.

Conceptualised as a musical yatra, the performance draws from the timeless poetry of saints like Sant Tukaram and Sant Dnyaneshwar, transforming the stage into a symbolic path towards Lord Vitthal. As the evening unfolds, what begins as a concert gradually turns into a shared act of devotion where language dissolves and the audience becomes part of the experience, many closing their eyes in an almost trance-like state, swaying gently, chanting ‘Vitthala’ along with Kale, and often always moved to tears.

Speaking about taking Abhangwari to newer geographies this year, Kale shares, “First time is always special. I have been to Australia and New Zealand in the past, but Abhangwari is touring here for the first time. What starts as something new often finds a very familiar bond deep within. There are many who don’t even understand Marathi, but as it comes to a culmination, the worship and spirituality bind all of us together, chanting the God’s name as one.”

Over the years, Abhangwari has grown into a global musical movement, travelling across India and international stages, while retaining its original soul. It also forms a significant step in Mahesh Kale’s larger dream of taking Hindustani classical music to every corner of the world… of having everyone experience it at least once. “As I continue to travel through the world with my music, I encounter new people, places and experiences,” he adds. “They find their way into my expression. This year’s Abhangwari is a manifestation of all of that… through new compositions, fresh interpretations, and a story that is told in a new way,” with each year reflecting Kale’s evolving artistic and personal journey

Following its international leg, the Abhangwari journey will soon return home to India this July, carrying with it the energy and experiences gathered along the way. The tour is expected to travel across the country beginning with Ahmedabad (4th July), followed by Kolkata (5th July), Delhi (10th July), Hyderabad (11th July), Bengaluru (18th July), Chennai (19th July), Pune (25th July), Mumbai (26th July), and Puttaparthi (29th July), before moving into August with Indore (1st August) and Nagpur (8th August).

Interestingly, beyond the Abhangwari tour, Mahesh Kale is also set to perform at the Stanford Jazz Festival at Stanford University in the San Francisco Bay Area on 21st June.

Bhopal (Madhya Pradesh) [India], May 18: In a market long dominated by packaged flour sitting on retail shelves for weeks or even months, Aap Ki Chakki is introducing a fresh and revolutionary approach to how Indian households receive their daily staple — atta.

Founded by entrepreneur Harsh Vardhan, popularly known as Simba, and part of the Sincerely Yours Group of Companies, Aap Ki Chakki delivers freshly milled Sharbati wheat atta directly to customers’ doorsteps, sourced straight from the fertile farms of Madhya Pradesh, India’s most renowned region for premium Sharbati wheat.

The idea behind Aap Ki Chakki stems from a simple but powerful realization: flour tastes best when it is freshly milled.

“Growing up, many of us remember our families getting wheat ground at the local chakki. Over time, convenience replaced freshness, and packaged atta became the norm. With Aap Ki Chakki, we are bringing that freshness back — but with modern convenience,” said Harsh Vardhan (Simba), Founder of Aap Ki Chakki.

From Farm to Fresh Flour

Aap Ki Chakki focuses on authentic Sharbati wheat, a premium variety known for its:

• Naturally sweet taste
• High nutritional value
• Soft rotis
• Superior gluten strength

Sourced directly from trusted farmers in Madhya Pradesh, the wheat is milled with care and delivered fresh, ensuring households experience the aroma, texture, and nutrition of traditionally ground flour.

Reimagining the Indian Kitchen

Unlike conventional packaged flour that may remain stored for extended periods, Aap Ki Chakki’s approach emphasizes freshness, traceability, and quality. By shortening the supply chain and prioritizing direct sourcing, the company aims to give consumers a product that is closer to how atta was traditionally consumed in Indian homes.

The concept has already begun resonating with modern families looking for healthier, fresher alternatives without compromising on convenience.

Building a New Standard for Staple Foods

Through the Sincerely Yours Group of Companies, Harsh Vardhan continues to explore ways to combine traditional Indian food practices with modern delivery models.

“Aap Ki Chakki is not just about flour. It’s about reconnecting people with authentic food — the way it was meant to be consumed,” added Simba.

With growing demand for clean-label foods and farm-to-home products, Aap Ki Chakki is positioning itself as a brand that bridges India’s agricultural heritage with the expectations of today’s consumers.

Aap Ki Chakki is a farm-to-home flour brand delivering freshly milled Sharbati atta sourced from Madhya Pradesh directly to households. The company focuses on freshness, authenticity, and bringing traditional chakki-ground flour back to modern kitchens.

Valsad (Gujarat) [India], May 18: For decades, a common belief among rural communities has been that transmission towers disrupt farming and reduce land productivity. However, a compelling on-ground story from Vankal village in South Gujarat is challenging this perception—proving that agriculture and infrastructure can successfully coexist.

Developed by Khavda IVC Power Transmission Ltd, the transmission line project is not only strengthening power connectivity but also safeguarding farmers’ livelihoods through a balanced and transparent approach.

Local farmers initially had concerns about losing usable farmland. But today, the reality on the ground tells a very different story. Even after the installation of high transmission towers, agricultural activities continue uninterrupted. Thanks to the considerable height of these structures, farmers can easily operate tractors beneath the towers and cultivate crops both around and directly under them.

One such farmer from Vankal village, Jitendra Padhiyar, shares that after the tower installation on his land, he received due compensation for land usage as well as crop-related impact. Importantly, his farming activities have not been restricted in any way. “I can still drive my tractor under the tower and continue farming as before. Crops grow well even in the tower area, so my income has not stopped—it continues smoothly,” he explains.

This practical reality directly counters the myth that such infrastructure leads to loss of agricultural productivity. Instead, farmers are experiencing a dual benefit—receiving fair compensation while continuing to generate income from the same land.

Adding to this perspective, village leadership has also acknowledged the positive impact. The project has been implemented with clear communication, ensuring that farmers understand both the process and the long-term usability of their land.

Spanning 258 kilometers, the transmission line connects South Olpad (GIS) to Boisar-II (GIS), playing a crucial role in strengthening India’s power infrastructure. At the same time, it is setting a strong example of how development projects can respect local communities and preserve traditional livelihoods.

By enabling uninterrupted farming even after infrastructure installation, the Khavda C project is effectively busting long-held myths—demonstrating that progress does not come at the cost of farmers, but can instead work alongside them.

Empowering Infrastructure. Supporting Communities.

Mumbai (Maharashtra) [India], May 16: In a world quick to judge and mock accents, one Gujarati woman chose not to shrink away but to rise above. Ms. Neepa Shah’s remarkable journey is a powerful testament to how determination, passion, and vision can transform ridicule into resounding success.

Born into a progressive family, Neepa Shah was the first girl child in her household to be sent to an English-medium school. Her father, a civil engineer, and her mother, who hailed from a small town in Kutch and even appeared for her examinations while raising a one-year-old son, instilled liberated values around women’s education. This strong foundation shaped Neepa’s belief that Gujaratis could not only compete but excel on the global stage.

A graduate of the prestigious Jai Hind College in South Mumbai, Neepa harboured a deep love for the English language, literature, and poetry from a young age. While many around her accepted the stereotypes, she nurtured a bold dream — to master the nuances of English pronunciation and prove that Gujaratis could conquer the very arena of “accentuation” where they were often mocked.

Fuelled by this mission, she graduated in Montessori, an internationally renowned pedagogy from New Scope Institute. She interned at reputed institutions such as Children’s Nook and The J B Petit High School for Girls. Convinced that early intervention was key, Neepa focused on young learners, believing that teaching English at a tender age could create a generation of confident, fluent communicators.

Her professional journey began under the guidance of Mrs. Madhuri Meghani, who had trained directly with Dr. Maria Montessori’s son in Italy. After working with her for nearly three years, Neepa gained further experience with educationist Mrs. Pardiwala. Following her marriage, she joined Kangaroo Kids under the mentorship of its pioneer, Mrs. Leena Ashar.

Blessed with a son, Neepa made the conscious decision to work from home. What began as humble phonics and English language sessions with just three students soon blossomed. Her passion proved contagious — the numbers grew rapidly from 3 to 30, and then from 30 to 300. This organic growth led her to establish Neepa Shah’s Language Academy, which she has been successfully running for 32 years.

Today, the academy boasts 300–400 students, both online and offline. Her learners span across India — including Delhi and Gujarat — and extend globally to countries like Australia, Hong Kong, and Dubai. Under her expert guidance, students have consistently emerged as national and international toppers in prestigious competitions such as the International Olympiad, Spell Bee, NELTAS, and more.

Her entrepreneurial spirit and unwavering love for language also inspired her to launch Tots Lounge Montessori Pre-School, where she introduced a Mother-Toddler Club, a pre-school, and a Multiple Intelligence Activity Center inspired by Howard Gardner’s theory. Neepa’s students have been encouraged to express themselves creatively, resulting in numerous articles, poems, and reports published in renowned children’s publications, including RobinAge, News House, and Tree House. Several have also written for The Times of India, with two standout students — Miss Jheel Mehta and Miss Tanishka Sanghvi — earning a place on the Times of India Wall of Fame.

Never one to rest on her laurels, Neepa further honed her expertise by graduating from Trinity College London in Communication Skills. She now trains and mentors students for various Trinity examinations, including YPC, JESE, Speech and Drama, and Communication Skills. Her reputation as a teacher-trainer has led to invitations from prestigious institutions across India, such as Orion High School and Raj Mantra Global School in Madurai. She has also conducted impactful workshops for parents at CNM School and for corporate professionals at Ganesh Housing in Ahmedabad, and many more focusing on phonics, early language development, and communication enhancement.

Her journey reached a glorious global milestone when her student, Jheel Mehta — whom she trained for over 14 years — won the prestigious Queen’s Award in the Commonwealth Essay Competition. Competing against 56,000 participants from 52 countries, Jheel’s victory was a defining moment that validated Neepa’s lifelong mission.

The success stories continue. Another student, Aarav Saxena from Utpal Sanghvi Global School, won the BRI Book Competition and has authored books soon be available on Amazon. Many of her students consistently achieve A* grades in Cambridge Checkpoint and board examinations.

Beyond her academy, Neepa has dedicated nearly four years to voluntary service at Child Reach School for specially-abled children, where her efforts in phonics, grammar, and writing skills were highly appreciated by Principal Mrs. Farida Asrani. She also trained girls from a reputed institute, Fidai Girls’ High School, for 3–4 years and guided visually impaired student Miss Ayushi Sanghvi, who is now pursuing software engineering and writes blogs for her college at D.J. Sanghvi College of Engineering, Mumbai.

Currently, Ms. Neepa Shah is working on a research paper exploring Howard Gardner’s Theory of Multiple Intelligences and is preparing to launch a comprehensive resource library for parents, children, and teachers. A strong advocate of digital detox and organic parenting, she continues to promote the idea of building healthy homes, happy states, and ultimately, a happier globe.

Her journey is far from over. As Neepa Shah often says,

“Here is just a comma to my path. The full stop is a long way away.”

If Gujaratis can conquer the world, perhaps it’s time to think twice before mocking their accent. For Neepa Shah and her students, conquering language and accent is not just a skill — it is a powerful mindset.

Ahmedabad (Gujarat) [India], May 16: Relevance Broking Services, in association with GiS and Narnolia, a regulated entity, successfully organized a high-level financial seminar titled “Passport to Global Markets.” The event witnessed enthusiastic participation from over 100 investors, HNI and Semi-HNI clients, and financial professionals, reflecting strong acceptance of the initiative and growing awareness towards global investment opportunities.

The event was led by Managing Directors of Relevance Broking Services, Mr. Munjal Mehta and Mr. Tilak Mehta. They emphasized that relying solely on domestic markets is no longer sufficient in today’s global financial environment, as rising volatility in global equity and debt markets, along with shifting interest rate cycles, continues to impact return profiles. In such a scenario, global diversification has become essential for long-term wealth preservation and risk-adjusted returns.

In today’s evolving financial landscape, the global wealth management industry continues to expand rapidly. According to industry estimates, Global Assets Under Management (AUM) is projected to grow from approximately USD 139 trillion in 2024 to nearly USD 200 trillion by 2030, reflecting a CAGR of around 6.2%. Additionally, global investable wealth is expected to exceed USD 481 trillion by 2030, with HNI and mass affluent segments acting as key growth drivers.

India is also witnessing significant expansion in its wealth management sector. The Indian wealth management market, valued at over USD 170 billion in 2025, is expected to grow at a CAGR of 10–11% to surpass USD 400 billion by 2034. Notably, the HNI segment contributes more than 60% of the total wealth management market, highlighting the country’s accelerating wealth creation trend.

Managing Directors of Relevance Broking Services, Mr. Munjal Mehta added that investors must now move beyond equity-only strategies and adopt a multi-asset allocation approach, including equity, debt, and alternative investments. He noted that globally, institutional investors allocate around 20–40% of their portfolios to international assets, a trend increasingly visible among Indian HNIs as well. He further highlighted that participation in markets such as the US, Europe, and emerging economies can help investors achieve more stable, diversified, and long-term returns.

The seminar featured renowned financial experts Mr. Eric Anderson, Founder & CIO – GiS London (FCA Regulated), and Mr. Shailendra Kumar, Co-Founder & CIO – Narnolia (SEBI Regulated), as keynote speakers. They provided in-depth insights into global market trends, equity and private market opportunities, and global asset allocation strategies.

Mr. Shailendra Kumar highlighted that private markets and Alternative Investment Funds (AIFs) are witnessing the fastest global growth, with private market revenues projected to exceed USD 400+ billion by 2030. He also emphasized that Category III AIFs provide investors exposure to both listed and unlisted assets, significantly enhancing portfolio diversification.

“Indian investors are increasingly looking beyond domestic markets for long-term wealth creation and portfolio stability. In today’s volatile global environment, diversification across geographies and asset classes has become essential for better risk-adjusted returns. Markets like the US, Europe, and emerging economies continue to offer strong investment opportunities. We are witnessing growing interest among HNI and Semi-HNI investors towards global investing and alternative assets. Through initiatives like ‘Passport to Global Markets,’ our goal is to help investors build diversified, future-ready portfolios while promoting informed and disciplined investment decisions,” said Mr. Tilak Mehta.

During the seminar, the participating investors and professionals highly appreciated the insightful presentations and knowledge-driven discussions. The organizers reiterated their commitment to empowering investors through global financial education and enhancing awareness around international investment opportunities in India.

The event concluded on a successful and positive note, with the organizers expressing gratitude to all speakers, guests, partners, and attendees, and reaffirming their commitment to continue hosting such knowledge-driven financial seminars in the future.

New Delhi [India], May 15: In an era where attention is constantly pulled in multiple directions and meaningful engagement is becoming increasingly rare, a powerful and timely message is emerging—one that redefines how individuals, especially the youth, should invest their time. At the center of this message is Sankara Rao Kondapaneni, a globally respected numismatist from the Telugu-speaking states of India, whose journey reflects not just achievement, but intention. 

Recognized as a three-time Guinness World Record holder and the recipient of six other international records across philately and numismatics, Sankara Rao Kondapaneni has built a reputation that extends far beyond the world of collectibles. His work represents years of discipline, research, and dedication—but more importantly, it represents a philosophy that he is now actively sharing with the world: “Hobbies for Humanity.”

This philosophy is rooted in a simple yet deeply relevant truth—when individuals lack meaningful engagement, they often drift toward harmful habits. Today’s environment presents countless distractions. From betting platforms and substance abuse to excessive social media consumption, the modern landscape is filled with avenues that promise instant gratification but offer little long-term value.

Sankara Rao Kondapaneni is not just highlighting this issue—he is offering a solution.

Through his lifelong dedication to hobbies such as coin collecting and stamp collecting, he demonstrates how purposeful engagement can shape an individual’s mindset. These are not passive activities. They require patience, observation, consistency, and a genuine curiosity about the world. Over time, they cultivate discipline and focus—qualities that are increasingly rare yet critically important.

But what truly sets his journey apart is the intent behind it.

For him, records are not about recognition—they are about communication. Each milestone he achieves is a way to amplify a message that society urgently needs to hear. A message that hobbies are not just optional interests, but essential tools for building a balanced and meaningful life.

This belief is reflected in every aspect of his work.

His contributions to numismatics and philately are not limited to collecting. They are structured, documented, and preserved with a sense of responsibility toward history and knowledge. His collections are not just personal achievements—they are curated representations of heritage, designed to educate and inspire future generations.

At the same time, Sankara Rao Kondapaneni has extended this philosophy into the world of writing and journalism. As a writer and storyteller, he has authored numerous interviews and human-interest pieces, bringing attention to stories that matter. His work in this space reinforces another powerful idea:

“Use your words, not your weaknesses.”

Writing, like collecting, is a constructive engagement. It sharpens thinking, encourages reflection, and creates value that extends beyond the individual. In a time when much of digital activity revolves around passive consumption, writing stands as an active, purposeful alternative.

This combination of collecting and writing forms the foundation of his larger mission.

“Hobbies for Humanity” is not just about choosing a hobby—it is about choosing direction over distraction. It is about filling time with purpose so that there is no space left for destructive habits to take root.

The philosophy is simple, yet profound:

If you have something meaningful to engage with, you will not seek escape.

If your time is filled with purpose, it cannot be consumed by addiction.

This idea addresses one of the most overlooked aspects of modern life—emptiness. Many harmful habits begin not from intention, but from the absence of direction. When individuals do not have something to build, they often turn to something that distracts.

Hobbies change that equation.

They provide a sense of progress.

They create identity.

They offer fulfillment that grows over time.

Sankara Rao Kondapaneni’s journey is a living example of this transformation. His achievements in philately and numismatics, supported by multiple global recognitions, reflect what is possible when passion is guided by discipline. But more importantly, they show how that passion can be used to influence others in a positive way.

In today’s fast-paced digital world, where attention is fragmented and depth is often compromised, his message carries even greater significance. It reminds individuals that fulfillment does not come from constant consumption, but from creation, learning, and meaningful engagement.

His message to the next generation is clear and direct:

Choose a hobby that builds you.

Avoid habits that consume you.

Invest your time in something that gives back more than it takes.

Because in the end, the difference between a fulfilling life and a distracted one often comes down to how time is used.

Through his work, Sankara Rao Kondapaneni is not just preserving coins or stamps—he is preserving values. He is demonstrating that hobbies can be powerful tools for personal growth, social impact, and long-term well-being.

His records may have brought him global recognition, but his mission gives them meaning.

Because ultimately, his achievements are not defined by numbers or titles.

They are defined by the message they carry.

A message that encourages a generation to build, to learn, and to live with purpose.

Save Coins – Save Stamps – Save Heritage – Save Humanity.

Ira Gilani, Founder & Managing Consultant of Goldratt Bharat

New Delhi [India], May 16: In an increasingly volatile business environment, where organisations are under constant pressure to scale faster, improve profitability, and adapt to rapid technological change, the idea of continuous growth has become more critical than ever. Yet for many companies, sustainable improvement remains elusive — not because of a lack of ambition, but because of inconsistent execution, fragmented priorities, and misplaced performance metrics. In this conversation, Ira Gilani shares her perspective on what truly drives long-term business growth, why system-level thinking matters more than isolated efficiencies, and how disciplined weekly reviews, focused leadership, and operational clarity can help organisations build healthier, more resilient businesses over time.

Understanding Continuous Growth

Q. The idea of “better than before” sounds simple, but in practice, most organisations struggle to improve consistently. Why do you think that happens?

A. At Goldratt Bharat, the idea of “Better Than Before” is built around a simple principle: compare yourself to your own past performance, not to competitors. We encourage organisations to benchmark themselves against their previous 13-week moving average on key business parameters.

The world’s best sportspersons do not achieve greatness by constantly looking sideways. They improve by refining their own performance with discipline, focus, and repetition. Businesses are no different.

Most organisations do not lack ambition. They lack focus and consistency. Continuous improvement breaks down when management attention keeps shifting from one initiative to another without sustained execution.

Q. How do you define continuous growth in a business context? Is it about scale, profitability, or something more fundamental?

A. Continuous growth is not just about increasing turnover, expanding capacity, or entering new markets. Real growth reflects a company’s ability to consistently improve sales, profitability, and cash flow together.

Cash flow is especially critical because it determines whether a company can sustain growth without constantly depending on external funding or debt.. When cash is not sufficient, management attention gets consumed by firefighting instead of building the future.

For us, continuous growth means building a healthier business year after year — one that generates stronger throughput, better cash flow, and high delivery reliability over time.

Q. Many companies set annual targets and review performance monthly. Where does this approach fall short?

A. Annual targets provide direction, but monthly reviews often create a delayed response system. By the time delivery, quality, or customer issues appear in monthly reports, the business has already lost valuable time.

Weekly reviews create a much faster feedback loop. They improve visibility, accelerate decision-making, and help organisations respond before small issues become structural problems.

We follow three simple principles:

• Focus on a few key parameters that truly reflect business performance
• Plan better than before
• Continuously reduce the gap between plan and actual execution

The Role of Measurement and Discipline

Q. You often emphasise measurement as a key driver of performance. What are the most common mistakes organisations make in how they measure success?

A. Most organisations measure what is easy to track rather than what actually drives business outcomes. Departments optimise local KPIs such as utilisation, output, or efficiency without asking whether the overall system is improving.

We often see companies achieving internal targets while delivery performance, cash flow, or profitability continue to deteriorate.

The real question is not whether every department is busy. The real question is whether the organisation is improving throughput, strengthening flow, and moving closer to its goal.

Q. How does shifting from traditional KPIs to system-level metrics change decision-making within a company?

A. One manufacturing client had excellent machine utilisation metrics, yet consistently failed to meet delivery commitments because dispatch capacity had become the real bottleneck. Inventory kept accumulating in the warehouse while customers continued facing delays.

The moment we shifted focus to On-Time-In-Full (OTIF) delivery as the primary metric, behaviour across departments changed. Teams stopped optimising individual targets and started aligning around customer delivery and flow.

Q. Goldratt Bharat advocates a weekly review mechanism. What makes weekly reviews more effective than monthly or quarterly cycles?

A. Weekly reviews create a much tighter feedback loop between decisions and outcomes. In most organisations, monthly or quarterly reviews come too late. By the time a problem appears on a dashboard, the impact is already visible in lost sales, delayed deliveries, excess inventory, or cash flow pressure.

A weekly cadence changes organisational behaviour. It improves execution discipline, enables faster corrective action, and prevents small operational issues from compounding over time.

It also eliminates the dreaded  “month-end syndrome,” where teams push activity at the last minute instead of maintaining steady operational flow throughout the month.

Leadership and Mindset

Q. Continuous improvement requires consistency over time. What role does leadership mindset play in sustaining this discipline?

A. Continuous improvement requires leaders to stay committed long after the initial excitement of transformation fades. The most effective leaders create consistency in focus, reviews, and decision-making rather than constantly chasing new initiatives.

Leadership behaviour sets the tone for the organisation. One of our clients conducts its weekly review every Monday at 2 PM without exception. Even when schedules become demanding, the CEO joins the meeting fully prepared and on time. That level of consistency sends a powerful message across the organisation.

Q. Resistance to change is common when performance measurement systems are altered. How can leaders manage this transition effectively?

A. Training and hand-holding are critical in the early stages, especially when teams are moving away from familiar KPIs.

At the same time, leadership cannot remain overly cautious. Transformation requires clarity, decisiveness, and consistency from the top. Some resistance is inevitable whenever accountability and measurement systems change.

What matters most is aligning KPIs to the company’s overall goal rather than departmental optimisation. Once teams understand how their metrics connect to business outcomes, resistance gradually shifts towards ownership and collaboration.

Looking Ahead

Q. As businesses adopt new technologies like AI and automation, how does the discipline of continuous improvement remain relevant?

A. AI can accelerate decisions, automate tasks, and improve efficiency. But if it does not improve the system’s constraint, it remains a local improvement rather than a business transformation.

In the Theory of Constraints, meaningful improvement comes from identifying the bottleneck that limits throughput. Optimising non-constraints may generate more activity and more data, but not necessarily better business performance.

The real question is not “Where can AI be applied?” The real question is “Where is the constraint, and how can AI help elevate it?”

Q. What is one misconception about business growth that you would like to challenge?

A. One misconception we need to challenge is that companies must continuously take on debt in order to grow.

Sustainable growth is often more robust  when it is built through internal accruals, stronger cash flow, and better throughput. Growth funded by operational excellence creates resilience and long-term stability.

The focus should not only be on becoming bigger. It should also be on becoming healthier as a business system.

Closing Question

Q. If there is one habit or practice every business leader should adopt to ensure continuous growth, what would it be?

A. I often refer to the idea from The ONE Thing by Gary Keller: extraordinary results come from narrowing focus, not expanding it endlessly.

Every leadership team should constantly ask:

“What is the one thing we can improve such that everything else becomes easier or less necessary”

In business terms, that usually means identifying the system’s constraint and improving it with discipline and consistency. When organisations achieve clarity on that, the impact on output, cash flow, and execution can be substantial, that too without increasing resources.

Akkodis recognized in HFS Horizons Agentic Services, 2026 report

The report positions Akkodis as an Enterprise Innovator, citing its strengths in delivering agentic services grounded in strong data foundations and governed execution. HFS Research notes Akkodis' ability to support enterprise-level transformation, helping organizations scale agentic AI across core workflows while maintaining governance, traceability and operational control, with demonstrated production deployments and measurable business outcomes.

From agentic AI pilots to enterprise production
Agentic AI represents a shift from AI-assisted productivity to autonomous, goal-driven execution embedded into end-to-end workflows. While adoption is accelerating, many enterprises continue to struggle to scale beyond pilots due to challenges related to data readiness, governance, trust and accountability. The HFS Horizons: Agentic Services, 2026 report examines which service providers are closing this gap by moving agentic AI from experimentation into enterprise production.

In its assessment, HFS Research highlights Akkodis' focus on governance, data foundations and execution at scale, emphasizing several strengths:

• Governed agentic services with measurable impact - Akkodis delivers agentic services that embed governed AI agents into enterprise workflows, improving employee engagement, productivity, and business performance with measurable P&L impact.

• Platform-anchored delivery and adoption at scale - AI-Core, Akkodis' industrial AI and agent orchestration platform, together with a productized data architecture, enable context-aware agent execution across enterprise environments, supporting production-scale use cases backed by global AI labs and structured adoption programs.

• Data-led architecture with enterprise governance - Akkodis' data-led agentic architecture is operationalized through a structured, multi-phase data pipeline with built-in governance gates, run-time approvals, auditability, and ROI-led use-case prioritization.

• Services-as-Software progression - Akkodis is shifting toward Services-as-Software, citing autonomous, reusable agentic components that reduce execution time, increase throughput and accelerate delivery without scaling delivery effort.

Demonstrated outcomes cited by HFS Research
HFS Research highlights production-level outcomes delivered through Akkodis' agentic services, underscoring the real-world impact of governed agentic execution. In the public sector, the report cites Akkodis' work with an Australian education authority where specialized AI agents cut lesson-plan creation time by 50-60%, reducing administrative effort and enabling educators to focus on higher-value work. In manufacturing, HFS points to deployments where Akkodis' agentic intelligence helped a global client reduce take-back orders by 20-30%, cut scrap by 30-40%, and achieve greater than 90% forecasting accuracy, driving meaningful gains in efficiency, quality and decision-making at scale.

"We're proud to be recognized by HFS Research as an Enterprise Innovator in agentic services," said Jo Debecker, President & CEO of Akkodis. "As organizations move from AI experimentation to real execution, the challenge isn't ambition - it's delivering agentic AI that can run reliably in production.
