Picture this: It is a Sunday evening in Bengaluru. A conservationist walks up to a microphone, takes a deep breath, and begins talking about the secret lives of bats. The room is packed. People are scribbling notes, asking questions, and leaning forward in their seats. There is not a whiteboard or a projector screen in sight but there is a bar counter, a cocktail menu, and the quiet hum of a city unwinding after a week. This is not a university. This is not a seminar hall. This is a bar. And this is where some of the most exciting…

Instagram just launched a brand-new feature called Instants. Your photos disappear the moment they’re seen. But haven’t we seen this before? Cast your mind back to the early days of Instagram. No influencers. No brand deals. No perfectly lit, heavily edited photos. Just people sharing genuine, everyday moments with their friends. That was Instagram at its best and honestly, many of us miss it. Now, in May 2026, Meta is trying to bring that feeling back. But the question everyone is asking is is this truly something new, or is Instagram just doing what it always does: looking at Snapchat…

Every October, the world turns pink. Pink ribbons on coffee cups. Pink lights on government buildings. Pink products in every supermarket aisle sneakers, water bottles, spatulas, even buckets of fried chicken. Companies run full-page ads. Celebrities post selfies. Hashtags trend. And somewhere in the middle of all this, a breast cancer patient is sitting in a chemotherapy chair wondering why, after decades of “awareness,” the disease still kills over 42,000 Americans every year. Nobody is against awareness. That’s the problem. When you ask people to do something they cannot argue with, something warm and virtuous and vague, you create a…

For the past two years, India’s IT sector has been quietly but firmly pushing employees back to the office. Hybrid attendance rules, fixed office days, and stricter monitoring of workplace presence have become the new normal. The debate over work from home seemed settled or at least, it was heading that way. Then, in one speech, Prime Minister Narendra Modi changed the conversation entirely. Why the PM brought up WFH On May 11, 2026, addressing citizens in Hyderabad, PM Modi made an unusual appeal. He urged Indians and organisations to revive practices that became common during the Covid-19 pandemic: working…

3 मई 2026 की दोपहर, जब 22 लाख से ज़्यादा बच्चे नीट यूजी का पेपर दे रहे थे, उसी वक्त राजस्थान के सीकर में एक अलग ही “पेपर” घूम रहा था। एक हस्तलिखित अनुमान पत्र, जिसमें 120 सवाल थे। जब राजस्थान विशेष अभियान दल ने जाँच की, तो पता चला कि उनमें से 90 जीव विज्ञान के और 30 रसायन विज्ञान के सवाल हूबहू नीट के असली पेपर से मिलते थे। वो पेपर परीक्षा से 42 घंटे पहले व्हाट्सएप पर फैल चुका था। 9 दिन बाद, 12 मई को, राष्ट्रीय परीक्षा एजेंसी ने नीट यूजी 2026 रद्द कर दिया। केंद्रीय…

Every morning, millions of Mumbaikars step off a local train and face the same problem: the station is close, but their destination is not. The bus is too slow, a cab is too expensive, and walking in the heat is not an option. So they do what generations before them have done. They spot a shared auto, squeeze in with three strangers, and get moving. No app. No booking. No receipt. Just a hand gesture, a fixed route, and an unspoken agreement that somehow works every single day. Mumbai’s shared auto network carries 1.3 million rides every day. That makes…

By: Ragini Chaubey Have you ever travelled by train? I am sure most of you have. And if you have, then you have probably sat in the general compartment at least once in your life. No air conditioning, no reserved seats, no guarantee of comfort just a crowd of people and a long journey ahead. I have travelled in it too. And every single time, I have stepped off the train feeling like I learned something. Something that no classroom ever taught me. A compartment full of strangers When you first walk into a general compartment, everyone is a stranger.…
