Dear @businessline : I have a question “Armenia I can understand” but how will Saudi Arabia fire these missiles ? Their majority fleet is F15

#WATCH | Palakkad, Keralam: Palakkad Additional Sessions Court sentences 61-year-old man, Chenthamara, to death in the 2025 Nenmara double murder case. The court convicted him of murdering his neighbour Sudhakaran (56) and Sudhakaran's mother Lakshmi (74) at Pothundi on January 27, 2025. District Police Chief (Superintendent of Police) Abdul Rashi says, "... On the next day of the incident, we arrested the accused, who was absconding. The investigation was conducted in a systematic manner. The prosecution was very helpful. That's why such a punishment was awarded by the courts."

Can India buy out a Football team that can reach semi finals of next world cup? How much will it cost? #Fıfaworldcup

This is actually a very massive achievement. The largest voltage transformers in existence today are 1100kV units built by @ABBgroupnews for the Changji-Guquan UHVDC link in #China . That #India has now beaten that & that too indigenously is no means feat . Kudos to @BHEL_India

@AnanthOnTrack Belated Happy birthday

Well, I turned a year older yesterday. Most on X weren't aware(🙂) but my office was fully aware and almost all the officers and staff turned up to wish me in my chamber. And in the evening, we had a small function not just to celebrate mine but the birthdays of two other colleagues whose birthday falls this week. #birthday #celebration

24 hours to lift-off. 🚀 Eight years ago, @SkyrootA started with just two people with an idea. There was no policy framework for private spaceflight in India, no real funding ecosystem for space startups, and we were taking on one of the world’s hardest engineering challenges. The odds of success seemed incredibly small. Today, India’s first privately developed orbital rocket stands on the launch pad, ready for lift-off. This moment belongs to every member of our team, our investors, the Government of India,@PMOIndia, @isro, @INSPACeIND, our partners, suppliers, customers, and everyone who believed in us long before this day. We have done everything we possibly could. Now we let physics do its job. Whatever tomorrow brings, every second of flight will teach us something invaluable. Reaching the launch pad and attempting an orbital launch is a landmark milestone for India—and an achievement only a handful of companies worldwide have reached. Every milestone we cross will advance not just Skyroot or India’s space journey, but the global commercial space ecosystem. Tomorrow, we take the next step. 🇮🇳🚀

"they keep pushing theor own self interest till the very end" This is the best acknowledgement any government can hope to get from another. Thankyou @AshwiniVaishnaw j for pushing India's interest till the very end 🙏

@Sharanyashettyy Which day is it not?

1 minor crrection on my part regarding the Vimag labs' post. Claiming Vimag Labs is India's 1st magnet-free motor company overlooks the deep-tech groundwork laid down yrs prior. Both Vimag Labs (founded in 2025 by Manish Kumar Seth & Krishna Murthy Rahul) & Chara Technologies (founded around 2019) are racing toward the absolute holy grail of the modern green transition: building high-efficiency, magnet-free electric motors. Chara Technologies was founded by veteran engineer Bhaktha Keshavachar (who previously co-founded Ezetap, a fintech/mPOS company acquired by Razorpay), along with Ravi Prasad Sharma &dMahalingam Koushik. Instead of permanent magnets, Chara uses Synchronous Reluctance (SynRM) & Switched Reluctance (SRM) motor topologies. In these motors, the magnetic field is created entirely by the clever design of the steel rotor & complex electrical pulses sent through the copper windings, bypassing permanent magnets entirely. The reason why traditional industries did not use SynRM motors in consumer vehicles is that they are notoriously difficult to control, loud & prone to torque ripples. Chara solved this with a heavy IP layer: they designed custom cloud-controlled power electronics & ML algos that dynamically stabilize the motor's performance in real time. Chara raised a $6M Series A funding round led by Arkam Ventures, with aggressive backing from prominent deep-tech VCs like Kalaari Capital, Exfinity Venture Partners & IIMA Ventures. With their Series A capital, they built a state-of-the-art automated factory and testing facility in BLR, scaling their annual production capacity from 20K units to 100K units per yr. They are targeting 2 wheelers, 3 wheelers & commercial HVAC applications. They both (& other players for sure) will ultimately provide India with complete geopolitical autonomy over its domestic electric vehicle supply chains.

The account calling this racist is Indian. That is the part bothers me the most. Not a Chinese account. Not a Beijing museum. Not one Chinese person in that thread asking for an apology. An Indian, telling everyone that Indians embarrassed themselves. Mera Naam Chin Chin Chu is from Howrah Bridge, 1958. Composed by O. P. Nayyar. Written by Qamar Jalalabadi. Sung by Geeta Dutt. Picturised on Helen, who was 19 at the time. The lyrics are goofy. The character is a dancer from Shanghai. She sings about Singapore, Shanghai, and then in the very next line calls herself Aladdin's girl and refers to Sindbad the sailor. It mixes up China with the Arabian Nights inside one verse. So yes, it is a silly 1958 song with silly ideas of the East in it. Even the tune's origin is borrowed. It was inspired by a 1916 London musical called Chu Chin Chow. The exotic Asia stereotype in this song came from Britain first. India just gave it a harmonica. Now, was any of that on the minds of these women at the Forbidden City? No. They are walking and waving. Eight seconds. A group of women, probably in their sixties, on the trip of their lives. They picked the one Hindi song they know that has China in it. Just an aunty being happy. Now put this next to what the rest of the world does. For the last month, Norway has been at the World Cup doing the Viking Row. Fans sit on the ground and mime rowing a longship. Their ancestors, the Vikings, were literally raiders who looted and pillaged coastlines from around 800 AD. The entire Norwegian parliament did the row together. The royal family posted a video of Crown Prince Haakon and Prince Sverre Magnus rowing. The Norwegian Air Force put out a clip of an F-35 pilot doing it from the cockpit. Fifteen thousand people did it on Karl Johan street outside the Royal Palace. Kindergartens did it. Hospitals did it. Old age homes did it. Their celebrations in Oslo and Bergen after beating Ivory Coast registered as earthquakes on seismic equipment. They did it in Times Square, in subways, at the airport, and on the luggage belt. The world's reaction? The New York Times praised it. A writer in The Spectator said you would have to be a crotchety killjoy to complain about it. Norway's own tourism body celebrated the attention. A museum guy said it was some of the best marketing Norway has ever had. Now imagine Indian fans doing something similar at a World Cup. Imagine 15,000 Indians doing some Bollywood step in Times Square. The first thread calling it cringe would be written by an Indian. Within an hour. That is what I mean by self sabotage. There is a real difference between a country that plays with its own image and a country that is scared of its own image. And it is not just this. Watch what happens every time an Indian tourist video goes viral. Someone eating with their hands. A group taking too many photos. An uncle bargaining. Immediately there is a thread about how we ruin our reputation abroad, written by someone whose thread is doing far more damage than the uncle ever could. If China is offended, China will say so. They have a foreign ministry and they are not shy about using it. Nobody there is losing sleep over four Indian women waving at a palace to a Geeta Dutt song. The one group that is upset is us. If someone wants to write about how 1950s Bollywood used lazy Asian stereotypes, that is a legitimate piece and I would read it. Do it about the film industry, about O. P. Nayyar's era, about the item number as a form. Do not do it about a 65 year old woman on holiday. She saved for that trip. She got a visa. She flew to Beijing. She stood in front of a 600 year old palace and felt something big, and she picked the only song she had. Let her wave.

I taught JEE physics for years. That paper breaks strong kids in three hours. This exam is five hours of theory and five hours of lab work, and these five did close to perfect scores on it. Let me tell you what actually happened. The International Physics Olympiad is the world championship of school physics. It was the 56th edition. Held in Bucaramanga, Colombia, from July 5 to 12. 381 students. More than 85 countries. Every one of them the best physics student their country could find. India sent five kids. All five came back with gold. Their names are Kanishk Jain from Pune. Riddhesh Anant Bendale from Indore. Rishit Garg from Dwarka in Delhi. Shresth Suraiya from Mumbai. Svarit Joshi from Ahmedabad. We know a hundred cricketers by their nickname and not one of these boys. :) That clean sweep put India at joint World Number One. Tied with China, Russia, Kazakhstan, South Korea and Taiwan. Those are countries that pour serious money and national pride into science education. We are standing level with them. Now here is what the exam actually was. Two papers. Each five hours long. The theory paper had three problems. One on the thermodynamics of paramagnetic cooling. One on the photoionisation of ozone. One on the dynamics of electron positron pairs. The experimental paper was another five hours in a lab, working through heat transfer and thermodynamic processes in fluids. That means you get given equipment you have never seen, and you have to design your own experiment, take your own readings, handle the errors, and reach a real answer. Not multiple choice. No shortcuts. No pattern recognition. You either understand physics or you sit there for five hours. HBCSE says the Indian students were near perfect on theory and excellent on the practical too. Now, this was India's 27th appearance at the IPhO. Across all those years, about 44 percent of Indian students have won gold, 41 percent silver, 10 percent bronze. In the last ten years, every single Indian student has come home with a medal. 62 percent gold, 38 percent silver. Not one kid has gone and come back empty handed in a decade. Five golds in one year has happened only twice. This year, and in 2018. So who built this. The programme is run by HBCSE, the Homi Bhabha Centre for Science Education. It sits under TIFR, which sits under the Department of Atomic Energy. They run the whole funnel. A national exam, then a national olympiad, then a brutal selection and training camp, and out of everyone in the country, five kids get on a plane. The team was led by Professor Anwesh Mazumdar of HBCSE-TIFR and Dr Leena Joshi from St Xavier's College, Mumbai. The scientific observers were Professor Ananda Dasgupta from IISER Kolkata and Nisha Kelkar from Gogate-Joglekar College in Ratnagiri. Yes. Ratnagiri. A college in a small coastal town in Maharashtra. This is public education doing something the private coaching industry could never do on its own. The coaching industry is very good at one thing. Teaching you to solve a known problem fast. That is what JEE and NEET reward, and I say that with love because I was part of that world. But an olympiad paper does not have a known type. There is no shortcut chapter. There is no formula sheet that saves you. You have to sit with a problem you have never seen and think. That is a completely different muscle. And a government funded centre has been quietly building it in Indian teenagers for 27 years. So yes, be proud. Loudly. HBCSE also shared that around 64 percent of India's olympiad medallists go on to do a PhD. But only about 32 percent of medallists end up settling in India. I do not say that to spoil the moment. These kids owe the country nothing. They earned every option they have. But it should tell us something. We are excellent at finding this talent. We are excellent at training it. We are still not great at giving it somewhere worth staying. Congratulations Kanishk, Riddhesh, Rishit, Shresth and Svarit. This is one of the best things an Indian did this year and most of the country will never hear about it.
