24 March 2015: 25 nautical miles off the coast of Goa On a moonless night in March, the Arabian Sea swallowed an aircraft whole and kept two souls in its depths, leaving a nation to mourn what the waves had claimed. At 2200 hours, the radio at INS Hansa crackled with a routine message that would be the last words anyone on the ground would hear from the crew: "Ops Normal." Inside the cockpit of the Dornier Do-228 maritime surveillance aircraft, three officers of the Indian Naval Air Squadron 310 the famed "Cobras" were executing a night training sortie that demanded they fly as low as fifty feet above the black water, testing the limits of machine and nerve. Commander Nikhil Kuldip Joshi, a veteran with four thousand flying hours, was at the controls. Beside him sat twenty-four-year-old Lieutenant Abhinav Nagori of Udaipur, an electronics engineer who had turned down lucrative corporate offers to wear the Navy's wings, the first in his family to be commissioned as an officer. In the rear, operating the aircraft's sensors and surveillance systems, was twenty-seven-year-old Lieutenant Kiran Shekhawat, a "Cat C" qualified Observer with over 750 hours of flying experience. She had marched down Rajpath only two months earlier as part of the Navy's first all-women contingent at the Republic Day parade, and was married to a fellow naval officer, Lieutenant Vivek Singh Chhoker. Born into a Navy family, she had lived her entire adult life in uniform — "Born in the Navy, joined the Navy, married in the Navy," as her family would later say. At approximately 2208 hours, the aircraft vanished from the Naval Air Traffic Controller's radar screen. It had been gaining altitude after a low-level pass when something went terribly wrong. The Dornier, one of the workhorses of India's maritime reconnaissance fleet since its induction in 1991, plunged into the sea. In the chaos, Commander Joshi ejected and was rescued about an hour later by a local fishing vessel, a miracle on a night that offered few. What followed was one of the most extensive search-and-rescue operations the Western Naval Command had mounted. Twelve ships, four aircraft, and teams of naval divers scoured the dark waters. INS Makar, a naval hydrographic vessel, deployed its side-scan sonar and detected a large metallic object lying fifty to sixty meters beneath the surface. It was the fuselage of the Dornier, broken but intact enough to hold its secrets, and its dead. Late on 26 March, divers from INS Matanga reached the wreckage. Inside the fuselage, they found Lieutenant Kiran Shekhawat. She became the first woman officer in the Indian Navy, and indeed, in all three services, to die in the line of duty. The next morning, they recovered Lieutenant Abhinav Nagori from the same shattered shell. Both bodies were brought back to Goa with the solemnity reserved for those who give everything in service of the nation. Abhinav Nagori was a man of quiet passions. An avid swimmer, a nature lover who spoke to his plants like children, a violinist who filled his quarters with music, and a cook who experimented with recipes when he wasn't studying flight manuals. He had dropped every civilian job offer that came his way after engineering college because the Navy was his "first love." In his twenty-four years, he had managed to pack more purpose than many find in a lifetime. Kiran Shekhawat was known among her peers as the "Iron Lady." A first-class B.Sc. graduate in Physics from Andhra University, she had spent part of her childhood in Tokyo and spoke Japanese with the same ease she handled surveillance radars. She was bold, far-sighted, and fiercely committed to changing the role of women officers in the Navy. Her peers described her as upright, courageous, and devoted — an ideal daughter, sister, and wife who always placed service before self. The Arabian Sea does not forget. And neither must we. Jai Hind.

When China does it: Innovation. When India does it: Complaints. An Indian startup has developed a filterless “dust-capturing solution” for urban streets, designed for outdoor use. If the same had been developed and deployed in China, many would have gone gaga over it and shared it widely. But when India does it, they criticise. 📍Bhubaneswar, Odisha

This person talking on Isha running crematoriums is either uninformed or deliberately dishonest. Isha is not “entering the cremation business.” It has been running Kayantha Sthanams in partnership with government bodies for years, with 33 crematoriums. In Tamil Nadu, Isha also offers free cremation services for below-poverty-line families. Its facilities use LPG, pollution-control measures, hygienic amenities, mortuary vans, mandapams for rituals, and trained staff. Why were they invited to Bihar? Because the model has worked. A decade-plus track record of dignity, efficiency, transparency, and corruption-free functioning is precisely why governments are trusting Isha with more such crematoriums. Bihar is not a random experiment. It is an expansion of a successful model. Similar requests have come from many other places too, because the need is real. The purpose is simple: dignity in death. A fixed standard fee, decided by the government, is charged to prevent exploitation. This fee is not randomly decided by Isha. It goes towards operation and maintenance of the facility. That means the family knows the cost upfront. No hidden bargaining. No random tips. No ad hoc “adjustments.” No middlemen turning grief into a revenue opportunity. This matters because everyone knows how crematorium costs often work on the ground. The official rate may look low on paper, but by the time wood, transport, rituals, informal payments, queue handling, priest/barber charges, “tips,” and local pressure are added, the real cost can become many times higher. Isha’s model cuts through that by putting the cost, process, and responsibility into a transparent structure. What exactly is the “profit” here? Cremation is not a money-making business. It is dignity in death. It is a service that requires staff, fuel, maintenance, vehicles, infrastructure, cleanliness, waste management, and operational responsibility. A government fixed charge for running such a facility is not profiteering. It is transparency. Bihar’s Bans Ghat arrangement reflects the same logic. The Patna facility has 18 cremation platforms, can handle around 50 cremations a day, and the fee is ₹3,500. The point is dignity, order, cleanliness, and freedom from exploitation. So the real question is not: “Why is Isha charging?” The real question is: why is he uncomfortable when a corrupt, opaque, exploitative system is replaced by a fixed-cost, cleaner, dignified, government-trusted model? When the poor get free service, the common family gets a fixed cost, and the departed get a dignified farewell, calling that “premium business” is not fact-checking. It is propaganda.

Let's achieve Zero Litter. I want Nagaland to stand as an example of Conscious and Mindful Tourism. Zero concretisation of areas in proximity of Tourist Sites. All amenities should be made from local vegetation. Rs 1000/- per person charge for Dzukou Valley trek. Hefty fines on people not adhering to guidelines.

From watching the Indian Armed Forces serve in Jammu and Kashmir to becoming an officer in the same fraternity, it has been a long and challenging journey, inspired in no small measure by our father’s 36 years of service in the @BSF_India. I am immensely happy and proud of my younger brother, Simrandeep Singh, on his commissioning into the Indian Navy. #Indianarmy #Indiannavy @IN_NavalAcademy

A Bengali woman carrying a British merchant on her back… 📸 This photo was taken in 1903, at the height of British colonialism in the Indian subcontinent. This isn't just a picture… it's a slap in the face to all those who sing the praises of "Western civilization." This is the true face of colonialism, which they still try to beautify in history books. It's slavery and the humiliation of human beings, the crushing of human dignity, simply because they don't belong to the white race! And then they ask you about terrorism… The history of Western colonialism is full of massacres, slavery, plunder, and starvation… But they reduce terrorism to oppressed peoples struggling for their dignity! 🩸 The effects of what British colonialism did in India—the killing, starvation, plunder, and contempt for humanity—are still evident today. Millions were killed, wealth was stolen, and generations were displaced… all under the banner of a false "enlightenment"!

@shantiswarup4u Enjoy your journey, don't know how much time you have for Kalahandi. Two recommendations from my side. 1) Thuamul Rampur a tribal village and a hill station. 2) Dhokra Chanchara, one of the best Waterfalls of Odisha.

Good morning Twitteratis cute friends... I am back from this road trip which was about 600+ kms, 40 hours, 4 districts, 2-3 national highways, around 2-3 state highways and tons of local Odias. A lot to share in small packets. This is just a beginning of my 2 years old dream of covering 30 districts in 30 months (30 ମାସ 30 ଜିଲ୍ଲା) #Odisha

Completed an important assignment at Rairangpur and now heading back to Bhubaneswar. Today morning a friend from Puri messaged that he had lit a lamp before Lord Jagannath and prayed for its successful completion. The duty is over now. I do not know what role the lamp played, but the gesture brought immense happiness. Some blessings are felt long before they are understood.
