Hima Das, with a poor 25.42s, finishes fourth in the women's 200m Race D at the Indian Athletics Series in Delhi a few minutes ago. She did not compete in 2025 and her 2024 results were disqualified.



I still remember the quiz at Hindu College in mid-December 1974. The question was who was the only British PM to have been assassinated. Nandan and I were foxed. I took a wild guess and said Robert Peel. The answer was wrong and the other teams also didn’t know. The quiz master threw the question open to the audience. Prompt boomed in a shout from the back: Spencer Percival 1812. The answer was right and it came from none other than Shashi Tharoor. Ram Guha was in the audience and we have shared memories of this quite often.

A special day for Air India in the heart of Assam! Our inaugural flight AI 879 landed at Guwahati Airport’s new terminal earlier today, marking another step in strengthening connectivity across the Northeast. Special touches on today’s flight -> narikolor laru onboard and honouring our first check‑in passenger with a traditional Assamese gamusa. Connecting cultures and cities ❤️ @GuwahatiAirport @MoCA_GoI @himantabiswa @JM_Scindia @MDoNERIndia @CMOfficeAssam #AirIndia

We are happy to welcome our guests and crew from Dubai aboard flight AI916D.

A heartfelt thank you to our teams, the Government of India, the Directorate General of Civil Aviation (DGCA), and the local authorities in Dubai for their continued cooperation and for making this homecoming possible. #AirIndia @DGCAIndia @MoCA_GoI @DelhiAirport @DubaiAirports

Always a special feeling to see an @airindia aircraft outside India. But today it is an entirely different feeling. 100x the normal feeling. I came to New York for just 2 days and what a time I selected!!! I was to board an @emirates flight to Dubai two hours ago which was canceled. I was to spend two days in my Dubai office. That isnt happening now. I hope @dubai gets back to normal soon! Prayers. Now, the Maharaja is getting me home.🙏 And non stop!!! Last minute booking. Literally. Just boarded. 🤞 Thanks @airindia
