An Emirati airline, an Indian captain, Israeli passengers, and Saudi authorities all played a part. India, re-elected to the ICAO Council last year, is well placed to push these standards into global aviation rules. The best tribute to…

Eighty years after Partition, the overarching lesson of this comparative history of India and Pakistan is that national trajectories are not preordained by culture, talent, or geography. They are determined by the rules and values a state enshrines for itself in its formative years.
But tearing down a clubhouse will not lower a family's grocery bill or write a line of exportable code. India's chance to close the gap with the economies that outran it will not wait for a hearing date in September, and neither should the country's attention.
For democracies under pressure, the lesson is sobering. Institutions do not only collapse when attacked from outside; they can also be hollowed out from within by leaders who master the language of mass appeal better than the language of internal restraint.
For people with mild to moderate distress, an AI-assisted system could provide brief, structured support based on evidence-based psychological techniques. For high-risk cases such as suicidal thoughts, psychotic symptoms, or acute trauma, the system should immediately refer the person to a human professional or a trained community health worker…
What protects communities is not mythology, but preparation, surveillance, trust, and timely action. When societies learn that lesson before an outbreak peaks, lives are saved. When they learn it during the peak — in crowded hospital corridors, in queues for oxygen cylinders that have run out — the cost is not measured in statistics alone. It…

Dharma is not a replacement for religion. It is a shared ethical foundation beneath all religions — the ground on which they all, at their best, already stand.
The system is optimized for crisis management. Doctors rarely advise on the preventative power of Omega-3, salmon, or chia seeds. I had to demand my own Vitamin D test, only to find I was at 50% of the minimum level. Furthermore, Stanford research confirms that chronic complaining rewires the brain for threat-detection. The "Ultimate Doctor"…
Move away from heavy carbohydrate-dominant meals. Increase protein using familiar South Asian foods such as dal, chickpeas, paneer, curd, eggs, and sprouts. Incorporate Sabja (sweet basil seeds) and Isabgol (psyllium husk) daily — these traditional ingredients are excellent for stabilizing blood sugar and improving gut health. A rough 1:1…
By repeatedly threatening to close the Strait of Hormuz — the artery through which a significant portion of the world's energy supply flows — it has shown it is willing to inflict suffering on billions of people across India, China, and Africa simply to extract political leverage. A government willing to hold the world's energy supply hostage…
