Fandom not denim is UNIQLOsnext growth engine in India
Customers flocked to purchase Maggi limited-edition bowls when they were first offered on rapid commerce platforms earlier this year. At one point, social media posts, Instagram reels, and a good dose of nostalgia caused the bowls to run out of supply. While many customers noticed the collector bowls, fewer may be aware that Japanese clothing store UNIQLO also sells T-shirts and tote bags bearing the Maggi name. Is this the only twist? The products cost up to Rs 1,490, in contrast to the bowls, which were included with sales of noodles.The collection is a part of UNIQLO's UTme! platform, an extension of their worldwide UT graphic T-shirt business that emphasizes customization. The company recently opened its first UT Pop-Up at Ambience Mall in Gurgaon, showing everything from anime and Japanese art to local partnerships with artists like Neha Sharma, in an effort to highlight the category and expose more customers to the world of UT. According to Nidhi Rastogi, marketing director of UNIQLO India, "We wanted a lot more people to know about UT and also experience the pop culture aspect of it."The month-long pop-up was intended to do more than just sell T-shirts, according to Rastogi. The experience structure enables the company to highlight the several pillars of UT, such as anime, art, Japanese culture, movies, and character-based partnerships like Peanuts, even though stores are limited by shelf space.It was about establishing an immersive space where consumers could engage with and comprehend UT outside of our physical locations," she continues.

Refrain from letting systems rule you Meenakshi Lekhi warns communicators about AI
Reputation management is becoming less about amplification and more about alertness, trust, and strategic judgment as deepfakes, artificial intelligence, misinformation, and real-time media continue to change the communications landscape. Former Minister of State for External Affairs and Culture Meenakshi Lekhi, who gave the keynote talk at the IMAGEXX Summit & Awards 2026 in New Delhi, provided a pertinent analysis of the increasing complexity that modern communicators face.Speaking to a group of PR executives, corporate affairs specialists, and reputation managers, Lekhi made the case that although technology is speeding up information and impact, ethical communication, quality, and trustworthiness remain the cornerstones of reputation. She emphasized the growing role of communications professionals as crucial advisors who help organizations navigate a time when reputational risks can arise and spread at previously unheard-of speeds, as well as as guardians of brand image."The real merit is in the product itself," she stated, highlighting the need of communication experts. It can be difficult to establish a reputation when quality is lacking, but when it is present, it isn't usually emphasized. You are the ones who oversee that as experts and are aware of the framework that requires the good aspects to be emphasized.She emphasized that media outreach and publicity are just two aspects of the communications function. Lekhi asserts that PR specialists are in a unique position to offer strategic criticism that can enhance goods, services, and client interactions. "Your input might enhance quality while you are maintaining your reputation. Because you are closer to understanding stakeholder expectations and customer emotions, you can all contribute to improvising on services, she added.

Taxed to extinction The potential lack of money from the SC gaming ruling
The Supreme Court has dealt a severe blow to the nation's rapidly expanding real-money gambling industry in what is being touted as the most significant corporate tax battle in Indian history. The Supreme Court affirmed that a 28% GST on internet gaming, casinos, and fantasy sports is legitimate. Significantly, the court granted its application retroactively, resurrecting enormous tax demands valued at more than ₹2.5 lakh crore. The decision, which was made by a court that included Justices JB Pardiwala and R Mahadevan, essentially puts an end to years of vigorous legal wrangling by tech companies, industry associations, and gaming firms. The court has significantly changed the financial and operational environment of digital entertainment in India by ruling that online money gaming with monetary bets qualifies as betting and gambling for tax purposes.The Supreme Court deconstructed the industry's fundamental defenses in two distinct but related rulings.The first ruling dealt with petitions by several State Governments against High Court rulings in Kerala, Tamil Nadu, and Karnataka that had previously overturned state-level prohibitions on online money gaming. The Supreme Court upheld the state limits by overturning those rulings.The legal nuance is explained by Sudipta Bhattacharjee, Partner at Khaitan & Co., who represented a number of well-known online gaming and casino companies in this group of cases: "In this first judgment, the validity of the anti-online gaming State laws of Tamil Nadu, Kerala, and Karnataka have been upheld by reading "betting" as something different from "gambling." In order to understand how basic constitutional bench rulings in RMDC and three-judge bench rulings in K.R. Lakshmanan have been handled in the context of online money gaming, it will be important to thoroughly examine this ruling.

Salman Khan legal team initiates a lawsuit against Kala Hiran and requests that the movie be removed
Salman Khan's legal team has filed a lawsuit against Kala Hiran: The Battle for Legacy's producers, claiming that the film violates the actor's personality rights. The notification calls for the immediate suspension of the movie's distribution schedule and marketing initiatives, including the removal of advertisements and posters. The notice, which is addressed to casting director Akshay Pandey, threatens more legal action if the demands are not met. The film, which was produced by Amit Jani and directed by Bharat S. Shrinate, is thought to have been inspired by the 1998 Blackbuck case, which has been connected to Khan for many years.Kala Hiran: The Battle for Legacy, according to Khan's legal team, is problematic since it seems to be based on a case that is currently pending before the Rajasthan High Court. The notice claims that the proposed movie violates the actor's personality rights and is defamatory. It further asserts that the creation and promotion of such a project might impede the legal system and compromise Khan's right to a fair trial. Additionally, the notification claims that Salman Khan has never authorized nor permitted the use of his name, likeness, or any incident related to him in the movie. His attorneys have insisted that the filmmakers immediately cease all project-related development, production, and marketing. They have also requested an unqualified written apology from the creators.The legal notification stated that if the filmmakers did not comply with the demands within 24 hours, civil and criminal actions might be started. Producer Amit Jani responded by publicly posting the warning on social media and implying that the action was meant to put pressure on individuals associated with the movie.

Potential for any re-rating delayed for Paytm, says UBS; still sees 25% upside in the stock – heres why
Shares of One 97 Communications (Paytm) have witnessed an almost 50 percent drop just in February as investor sentiment turned negative amid the RBI and Paytm Payments Bank Ltd (PPBL) saga.In a recent note, brokerage house UBS said it believes that any potential for a re-rating of Paytm based on profitability improvement has been delayed. It has retained a 'neutral' call on the stock and reduced its target price to ₹510 (from ₹650 earlier). The new target indicates an over 25 percent potential upside. "Paytm's share price has derated significantly post RBI regulatory action and the stock is trading at 1.5x EV to one-year forward consensus sales, nearly an 80 percent discount to its Indian internet peers. Our ₹510 price target implies a 2.4x EV to FY25E sales, which is still a 70 percent discount to Indian internet peers. We believe this is justified as Paytm's growth profile is now much weaker at an 8 percent expected revenue CAGR over FY24-26E, versus Indian peers at a much higher 27 percent. Additionally, Paytm's re-rating potential based on its profitability improvement is now also pushed out and the company's margin profile is much weaker than peers. Furthermore, the loss of investor confidence based on the regulatory action is unlikely to change in a hurry. We believe only sustained execution in the coming quarters can re-build investor confidence which would drive a re-rating," explained the brokerage. The RBI on January 31 directed PPBL to stop accepting deposits or top-ups in customer accounts, wallets, FASTags, and other instruments after February 29, citing large-scale non-compliance with regulations and supervisory concerns. In the latest update, the Reserve Bank of India clarified that non-Paytm Payments Bank Limited (PPBL) linked merchants (85 percent of the total) can continue to function as normal and gave a 15-day extension till 15th March for most PPBL-linked activities. RBI also informed that @paytm UPI handles can be migrated to banks after approval from NPCI. This implies key linkages between Paytm and PPBL will be transferred to other banks via Paytm and also clears the way for Paytm to function as third-party app provider (TPAP), similar to its competitors PhonePe and Google Pay, once NPCI provides approval for the same. Following RBI's latest update, the anticipated negative impacts on Paytm have been alleviated to a considerable extent. Paytm is poised to retain a significant portion of its customer and merchant base pending certain approvals from the National Payments Corporation of India (NPCI). However, UBS anticipates a churn of 15-20 percent in merchants, customers, and devices in Q4 compared to Q3 levels, accompanied by a steep decline of around 60 percent quarter-on-quarter in loan origination. Additionally, it foresees a challenging FY25 with a projected 2 percent revenue decline, attributed to the loss in the wallet business and gradual normalisation in payments and loan origination activities. To regain lost customers, Paytm is expected to escalate its marketing expenditure, leading to heightened EBITDA losses in FY25, consequently prompting adjustments in its EPS estimates.

Stock market selloff: Nifty forms Bearish Engulfing; 21,850 next?
Nifty on Wednesday could not sustain early gains and saw heavy selling, as it closed below the psychological mark of 22,000 for the time since February 15. The index formed a Bearish Engulfing pattern on the daily chart, which has a negative connotation. The silver lining was the index somehow managed to settle above its 21-day EMA on a closing basis. If the index stays below 22,000 level, chances are it may revisit 19,850-800 level, analysts said.“The index dropped below the 22,000 mark, indicating a growing weakness. Nevertheless, it managed to close just above the 21EMA on the daily timeframe. Observing the daily chart, the index has been navigating within a rising channel. A decline below 21,950 could potentially trigger a correction towards 21,800 in the near term,” said Rupak De, Senior Technical Analyst at LKP Securities. For the day, the 50-pack index closed at 21,951.15, down 247.20 points or 1.11 per cent. A sustained Nifty trade above 21,950 might spur a recovery in the index towards 22,100, De added. With the Bearish Engulfing candle, Nifty has given up all the gains of the previous week, said Chandan Taparia of Motilal Oswal Securities. This analyst believes that were the index say below 22000, weakness could be seen towards 21,850, followed by 21,700 levels. Resistances are seen at 22,150 and 22,222 levels, he said.atin Gedia – Technical Research Analyst at Sharekhan said that the index has reached its 20-day moving average of 21,944. He said the broad range of 21,800-22,300 still has not been breached. "The daily as well as hourly momentum indicators have a negative crossover, which is a sell signal. But prices are still in a range and, hence, a decisive breach below 21,875 i.e. the previous swing low is required to validate the change of trend. The Index is around the crucial support zone 21,900, which is likely to act as a make-or-break level from short term perspective," Gedia said.

The Aam Aadmi Party of Arvind Kejriwal will have to leave its headquarters, which are located on a plot of land designated for the High Court. The good news is that you still have until June 15 to act. The Supreme Court gave the party a long deadline because of the upcoming Lok Sabha elections, emphasizing that this is an encroachment case. The party may now submit an application for alternative land to the Land and Development Office of the Center.The bench, which included Chief Justice D Y Chandrachud and Justices J B Pardiwala and Manoj Misra, stated, "We would request the L&DO to process the application and communicate its decision within a period of four weeks." The bench continued, "AAP has no legal right to remain on the land." The Delhi High Court was granted land in February to expand its operations and build more courtrooms for the Rouse Avenue location. The court had noticed that the AAP was intruding on this land. When considering a case involving the nation's judicial system, the highest court took notice of the issue.The state government promised at a meeting on February 15 that the plot would be removed in two months if a substitute plot was provided, in response to a court order. However, the situation remained unchanged. According to India's Chief Justice, DY Chandrachud, nobody has the authority to impose law on others. "It is absurd for any political party to sit on it. Every intrusion will be eliminated... The land should be given to the High Court so that it can be utilized by the general public and citizens, Justice Chandrachud stated.

Article 21: The Constitutions Soul, with Citizens Liberty Supreme
According to the Supreme Court, Article 21 is the essence of the Constitution because it protects citizens' rights to liberty, which are so valuable that a person would lose them if the high court takes too long to decide cases pertaining to it. Amol Vithal Vahile, a prime accused in the murder of a corporator in Maharashtra, was granted bail by the Bombay High Court on January 29 following prodding from the top court, according to a bench of Justices B R Gavai and Sandeep Mehta.In a recent ruling, the bench stated that it is evident that prior to this court's order being issued on January 29, 2024, the high court had dismissed the bail application on one or more grounds rather than considering it on its merits.It goes without saying that Article 21 of the Indian Constitution is its core because it upholds the fundamental right to liberty for all citizens. It stated, "Depriving the party of their precious right guaranteed under Article 21 of the Constitution of India would mean not reaching a quick decision and brushing off the issue on one or the other basis pertaining to a citizen's liberty." The bench stated that it has encountered numerous cases from the Bombay High Court in which the applications for bail and anticipatory bail were not resolved promptly. The bench mentioned one instance where the application for anticipatory bail was pending for over four years. "We have also encountered many cases where the judges find an excuse to reroute the case on unrelated grounds rather than rendering a decision based on the merits of the case. As a result, we ask the chief justice of the Bombay High Court to communicate our request to all judges who have criminal jurisdiction so that the issue of bail and anticipatory bail can be decided as soon as possible," the bench stated.It requested that the Supreme Court's Registrar (Judicial) forward this directive to the High Court's Registrar (Judicial), who will present it to the Bombay High Court's chief justice. The bench stated on January 29 that, despite the fact that Vahile had been detained for more than seven years, on March 30, 2023, the high court had ordered him to appear before the trial court for regular bail.

SEA urges Centre to not extend ban on export of de-oiled ricebran
The Solvent Extractors’ Association of India (SEA) has asked the Indian Government to not extend the ban on the export of de-oiled rice bran beyond March 31.In a letter to Piyush Goyal, Union Minister of Commerce and Industry, Consumer Affairs, Food and Public Distribution; and Parshottam Rupala, Union Minister of Fisheries, Animal Husbandry and Dairying; the President of SEA, Ajay Jhunjhunwala, said the total export of de-oiled rice bran constitutes only around 6 per cent of the production. The restriction has adversely affected processors and exporters along with paddy farmers, hindering them from realising better returns on their produce, he said. The government banned the export of de-oiled rice bran in a notification dated July 28, 2023, effective until November 30, 2023. This was further extended till March 31, 2024 in a notification dated December 8, 2023. Stating that processing of ricebran has picked up with the commencement of new season in November, he said availability of de-oiled ricebran has improved. This is evident from the reduction of price from ₹18,000 a tonne on July 28 2023 (the date of issuing notification) to ₹12,500 a tonne at present. Mentioning that the industry benefits from the export of de-oiled rice bran, he said easy clearance of meal leads to sustained processing, leading to better capacity utilisation, continuous oil availability, increased employment, and significant value addition along with valuable foreign exchange. India, which has successfully developed export market for de-oiled rice bran over the last 30 years, primarily serves Vietnam, Thailand, Bangladesh and other Asian countries. “An abrupt change in export policy has given opportunity to our competing countries like Sri Lanka, Bangladesh to capture Vietnam market for de-oiled ricebran and the market will be lost in no time,” he said. Eastern States, including West Bengal, are a significant producer of de-oiled ricebran. Since the cattle feed industry remains underdeveloped in this part of the country, there is limited demand for de-oiled ricebran in eastern India, he said. “The exorbitant local freight charges to move de-oiled ricebran from eastern India to south or west India makes export the principal means of disposal for de-oiled ricebran in the region. Since export is banned, ricebran processors in Eastern India are facing the prospect of shutting down their operations, adversely impacting the rice milling industry and reducing ricebran oil production,” Jhunjhunwala said. Though export restriction on de-oiled ricebran was imposed in July 2023 to ease milk prices, there is almost no reduction in milk prices across the country since this ban, he said. This is because the cost component of de-oiled ricebran in milk price is very nominal. “We are still of the view that continuing this ban will not support reduction in milk prices but will continue to negatively impact the ricebran processors and de-oiled ricebran exporters,” he said, and requested the government not to extend the ban beyond March 31.

Government Employees Platform Plans Strike From May 1 Over OPS Demand
A group of Union and state government employees announced they will go on indefinite strike starting on Labour Day (May 1) this year to demand the restoration of the old pension scheme (OPS), The Hindu reported.The Joint Forum For Restoration of Old Pension Scheme (JFROPS), which was described as a platform of trade unions and associations working among Union and state government employees, said it had decided to serve strike notices starting March 19. Under the OPS, which was retired in 2004, retired government employees received half their last-drawn salary every month as a pension. The government concerned would foot the entire amount. The National Pension Scheme (NPS) replaced the OPS and involves the employee contributing 10% of their basic salary and the government contributing 14% into a corpus, which can be invested into different types of funds. How much an employee would receive upon retirement depends on the market return on these investments. Shiv Gopal Mishra, who is convenor of the JFROPS and is among the leaders of a railway workers’ union, told The Hindu that the decision to go on strike was taken after talks with the Union government had broken down. “We held several protests demanding restoration of OPS. We wrote letters to prime minister and finance minister urging them to restore the OPS. We have also been raising this issue in the JCM [joint consultative machinery] meetings, but the government ignored our demands and we are now forced to go on an indefinite strike,” Mishra was quoted as saying.The Hindu also cited government employees’ unions as claiming that ahead of the call for a strike, ballots conducted in various government departments suggested that nearly 100% of employees supported a strike.They have also argued that pensioners were worse off under the NPS because it does not hike pensions on a regular basis in order to correct for inflation. Some state governments have decided to restore the OPS for their employees. But the Reserve Bank of India has said that going back to the OPS would increase governments’ liabilities and put their financial security at risk. The Union government said in parliament in December that it does not plan on restoring the OPS. It has also warned its employees from going on strike before and argued that their right to form associations did not include a guaranteed right to go on strike. When Mishra was asked by The Hindu how the model code of conduct for the general elections would affect their planned strike, he said they wanted the issue to be discussed by the people. “This is an issue that involves lives of crores of people. Let the people discuss and decide on our demands. Even if the model code of conduct comes in picture, the Cabinet will be there, the Cabinet secretary will be there and they can take a decision on our demand,” he told the newspaper. Another employees’ union leader was cited as saying that ‘all unions’ except the pro-government Bharatiya Mazdoor Sangh would take part in their planned strike.

The days of microbladed eyebrows are over but are they reversible
Our eyebrows have seen more changes than any other feature. Brows have seen it all, from the thin, pencil-style brows of the year 2000 to the fuller, laminated look of today. But one thing hasn't changed: if you get your eyebrows correct, half of your appearance is taken care of.Microbladed eyebrows were commonplace for a very long period. Because the fad promised bigger, more natural-looking brows with less daily work, celebrities, influencers, and regular people loved it. For many, it provided a long-term solution for uneven or sparse eyebrows. But beauty trends change quickly, and what was once considered contemporary and attractive is now beginning to feel antiquated. Many people are starting to reconsider their previous microblading decisions as softer, more natural brows become more popular.In essence, microblading is a cosmetic tattooing method in which pigment is manually applied to the skin's surface to simulate eyebrow hair. According to Dr. Ruby Sachdev, an aesthetician and consultant at Gleneagles Hospital in Bengaluru, it became well-liked by those who want larger eyebrows without using makeup every day.

Arjun Rampal If I have to look extremely good, then my go-to is Gabriella’
"The radiant and perfect complexion of Janhvi Kapoor has been unveiled, and the secret to her lovely skin is a homemade face mask. Kapoor bragged about the many health advantages of this concoction, which is made of honey, mashed bananas, curd, orange scrub, and almond oil. Dr. Aanchal Panth shared her thoughts on this celebrity-endorsed skincare product, as social media was ablaze with claims of its efficacy. Let's investigate if giving it a shot is worthwhile. Kapoor began by taking curd and placing it in a bowl with mashed bananas, honey, and an additional layer of malai. After thoroughly blending, she smeared it across her freshly washed face. She then squeezed an orange, rubbed the juice of the fruit over her face, and covered it with the mask. Following the removal of the mask, she applied almond oil beneath her eyes. Dr. Panth elucidated the effectiveness of the mask by pointing out that although it is moisturizing, putting orange directly on the skin is not advised. "This is a good mask that will help with moisturizing, especially if you have dry skin."" She noted that scrubbing orange juice on the face can be extremely irritating to the skin, but that as she used the malai of the curd, the thicker part of it will be even more moisturizing. It may make your skin more vulnerable to UV radiation, particularly if you have dark patches or sensitive skin. Completely avoid this, she continued. Regarding the almond oil, Dr. Panth clarified that it can be used as well as over the entire face, particularly in light of the damage caused by the orange; it serves as a beneficial moisturizer. The ingredients are broken down as follows: Dear Honey: Being a naturally occurring humectant, it helps the skin stay hydrated and becomes smooth and silky. Additionally, it has antibacterial qualities that enable it to effectively combat bacteria that cause acne and reduce inflammation. Bananas: Potassium, vitamin C, and vitamin E are among the many vitamins and minerals they contain that are rich in and help to hydrate and nourish the skin. Banana enzymes gently exfoliate the skin to reveal a brighter complexion by removing dead cells Lactic acid, which is present in curd, acts as a mild exfoliator to encourage cell turnover and reveal younger-looking skin. It also helps reduce redness and irritation and has moisturizing qualities. Orange: Natural acids found in citrus fruits, such as oranges, can irritate delicate skin, particularly when applied topically. It contains substances that may increase the skin's sensitivity to sunlight, raising the possibility of sunburn and other injury. To lessen the chance of discomfort, dilute orange juice or zest with water or combine it with other calming components before applying it directly to the skin. Almond oil: High in fatty acids and vitamin E, it nourishes and moisturizes the skin, leaving it feeling silky and smooth. It also aids in scar fading. "

Naveen Patnaiks full-circle moment: The former chief minister uses his old strategy to oppose the BJP
Former Odisha Chief Minister and current Leader of the Opposition, Naveen Patnaik, is once again relying on a strategy that defined much of his 24-year tenure—positioning himself as the defender of Odisha’s interests against decisions taken by the Centre. After losing power to the BJP in 2024, Patnaik has increasingly focused on state-centric issues such as delimitation, parliamentary representation, the Mahanadi water dispute, and law-and-order concerns to challenge the BJP government in Odisha. Political observers describe this as a “full-circle moment” because Patnaik used a similar approach in the past to build and strengthen the Biju Janata Dal. By emphasizing Odisha’s regional identity and portraying himself as the protector of the state's interests, he successfully maintained political dominance for over two decades. Now, as the BJP governs Odisha under Chief Minister Mohan Charan Majhi, Patnaik appears to be reviving the same formula from the opposition benches. In recent weeks, Patnaik has criticized the BJP government over the handling of the Mahanadi river dispute, expressed concerns about proposals that could reduce Odisha’s representation in Parliament, and raised questions about governance and public safety. These interventions indicate a shift from his traditionally restrained style toward a more active opposition role aimed at reconnecting with voters and rebuilding the BJD’s political momentum.

Why the BJP benefits from the Himachal vote results despite Chief Minister Sukhu appeal for local factors
The BJP's win in three of the state's four municipal corporation elections has given the opposition a lift and a chance to test its narrative against the ruling Congress government with just a year until the 2027 Himachal Pradesh Assembly elections. The BJP's assertion that public opinion is shifting against the Sukhvinder Singh Sukhu-led government has been strengthened by the results, which are the first significant urban electoral verdict for the Congress since the party regained power in the hill state in 2022. The Himachal Pradesh urban local body (ULB) election results were advantageous to the Bharatiya Janata Party (BJP) since it won direct, party-symbol-driven municipal elections. The BJP presented the victories as a popular vote on his state government, while Chief Minister Sukhvinder Singh Sukhu blamed these defeats on "local factors" and significant Congress support in village panchayats.

Arun Lakhani a Pawars related Maharashtra BJP candidate for MLC Who is he
After the BJP nominated him from the Wardha-Chandrapur-Gadchiroli Local Authorities constituency for the June 18 state MLC elections, Nagpur-based industrialist and BJP leader Arun Lakhani became the focus of political discourse. In addition to holding a prominent position in the Maharashtra BJP and being close to Chief Minister Devendra Fadnavis and Union Minister Nitin Gadkari, Lakhani will soon be related to NCP (SP) MP Supriya Sule. Due to his son Sarang Lakhani's engagement to Sule's daughter Revati, his candidacy has drawn interest from both parties.Because Lakhani is not from any of the three districts that comprise the seat, his nomination has also generated controversy. The BJP's decision to nominate a candidate who is seen as an outsider has raised concerns because the seat has always been represented by figures with deep ties to Wardha, Chandrapur, or Gadchiroli.But Lakhani is a well-known figure in the BJP. He has a long history with the Maharashtra BJP and serves as its co-treasurer. His selection is thought to have been influenced by his social activities in Vidarbha, his work in the infrastructure industry, and his close relations to the BJP leadership, which includes both Gadkari and Fadnavis.Before going into business, Lakhani, who was born in Malkapur in the Buldhana district, studied petrochemical engineering. He is the Chairman and Managing Director of Vishvaraj Environment Ltd., a business that deals with road construction, wastewater treatment, and water delivery.Lakhani is best known for the Nagpur 24x7 water delivery project, which was one of the first significant initiatives in India to use a public-private partnership (PPP) model to offer municipal water around-the-clock.

NEET-UG 2026 canceled LIVE: Nashik police detain suspects in paper leak
Due to reports of a paper leak, the National Testing Agency (NTA) canceled the May 3 NEET-UG 2026 exam on Tuesday, May 12, 2026. The government has requested that the CBI conduct a thorough investigation into the "irregularities." While the Rajasthan Special Operations Group looks into the claims of the exam paper leak, this decision was made."With the approval of the Government of India, the National Testing Agency has decided to cancel the NEET (UG) 2026 examination conducted on May 3, 2026, and to re-conduct the examination on dates that will be notified separately, based on the inputs subsequently examined by NTA in coordination with the central agencies, and the investigative findings shared by the law enforcement agencies and to ensure that there is transparency in the system," the NTA stated in a press release. It further stated that the Agency's official channels will be used to disseminate the updated exam dates and admission card issuance timetable. The Rajasthan Special Operations Group (SOG) took action in response to claims that the NEET-UG 2026 entrance test question paper, which was administered on May 3, had been leaked.The purported anomalies concern "a guess paper" that was distributed prior to the test and allegedly included questions that were quite similar to the real paper.

At MWC 2024, brands show the future of connected cars and aerial mobility
While Wireless and Mobile technologies took centerstage at the just concluded Mobile World Congress in Barcelona, there was also some spotlight at the connected cars and aerial mobility at arguably the world’s most important consumer tech show. The Smart Mobility Summit at MWC brought together industry leaders from both established automotive and drone companies, along with tech pioneers. The transportation and travel sectors face a dual challenge — increasing capacity and reducing emissions. Embracing digital transformation is crucial to overcoming these hurdles, paving the way for substantial growth in both connected cars and aerial mobility. And this transformation was the key topic of discussion among the industry executives who gathered at the summit. The aerial mobility market is expected to reach $68.1 billion by 2032, growing at 35.2 per cent annually. Connected car drivers in the US alone are projected to increase by 15.5 per cent by 2027, reaching 174.8 million. Mobile network technologies like 5G and network slicing enable new features like autonomous driving, piloting, and C-V2X communication. Additionally, the growing availability of technologies like 4G and LPWA lays the foundation for reliable, always-on connectivity for transportation networks. The discussions were also important because deploying connected transportation solutions varies by region and requires a deep understanding of available networks and technologies. Given that the MWC saw attendance of industry veterans from different parts of the world, they could share knowledge and discuss smart solutions relevant to them. Led by industry leaders and experts, the summit covered topics such as enhancing cars with new connected features, recent advancements and challenges in smart drones, and mid-to-long-term transformation, including the role of new network technologies, electrification, and the use of teleoperation and digital twins. The Smart Mobility Summit also presented a unique opportunity to industry veterans to connect with key players who are shaping the future of mobility.

Hello Kameeni Official Trailer: Starring Drishika Chander and Asheema Vardhaan
Story: When Gauri (Aasheema Vardhaan) meets the mysterious Kamini (Drishika Chander), who confounds her with her behavior, her life takes an unexpected turn. When Gauri sees the least known aspect of Kamini, how will she respond? Review: "Hey Kameeni," which was co-written and directed by Mani Shankar, delves into the fascinating interactions between the two main characters, Aasheema Vardhaan and debutante Drishika Chander. The movie fails to live up to expectations in spite of its important issue. The story begins with Kamini, an enigmatic girl who doesn't seem to know who she is, roaming the streets of the city in order to accomplish an impossible task. Gauri becomes caught up in Kamini's web, providing her with a place to stay and a work at a nearby cafe. Gauri, who had blindly trusted Kamini, quickly discovers that she is falling in love with the enigmatic outsider. AsThe main problem with the picture is its 120-minute running length, much of which is devoted to establishing Kamini's reclusive personality. Sadly, rather than being interesting, this becomes increasingly complicated and repetitious. Although there are some surprising turns that light a spark, the main characters' relationship isn't deep enough to arouse true feelings. The last half hour of "Hey Kameeni" is when the story really starts to come to life. Although Aasheema and Drishika give sincere performances, their roles don't leave much opportunity for character growth. The absence of subtlety in the narrative results in an experience that oscillates between the stolid and the barely passable. Gauri is thrown into an exciting, adrenaline-filled world by Kamini's unconventional demeanor. Gauri in Aasheema, a sweet, innocent girl with flaws,The movie tries to tackle societal views and millennial anxiety, but it doesn't really offer a fresh viewpoint. Although it misses the chance, the female-led suspense thriller has the ability to express the feminine point of view. Like the film's sudden line, "Wakt aane par aurat se bada koi mard nahin hota" (No man is greater than a woman when the time comes), 'Hey Kameeni' appears to have been a wasted chance to convey a strong message. Finally, "Hey Kameeni" stumbles with the plot's pacing, leaving viewers wanting more character nuance and a deeper understanding of the movie's central ideas.

Stars of the Indian Police Force, Vivek Oberoi and Shilpa Shetty, Report for Duty in Style
With the web series Indian Police Force, which stars Sidharth Malhotra, Shilpa Shetty, and Vivek Oberoi, Rohit Shetty is set to make his OTT debut. In a recent interview, the director discussed it and said that he purposefully avoided using explicit language or sex scenes in his series as a sign of respect for Indian culture.Except for one or two episodes where it was necessary for the characters to speak that way, Rohit Shetty claimed that the Indian Police Force doesn't even have many profanity phrases on a podcast with comedian Bharti Singh and her husband Haarsh Limbachiyaa. "There are a few profanity-filled words in a few episodes; this is also because the characters are law enforcement officers." Other than that, nothing obscene or sexual. There are differences in our Indian culture. We are still well-respected and well-known for that. While those who are producing it are not at fault, the core audience is not comfortable at all. (I want to avoid unsettling my main audience.)""Chennai Express, I was at the airport where a lady came to me and thanked me," he continued, adding that it was through Chennai Express that he realized the value of family-friendly movies. "Thank you very much," she exclaimed. My daughter is 2.5 years old, and she wakes up at a certain point of the day when I have to perform household chores. I then turned on Chennai Express. That's when I discovered this.Indian Police Force, Sidharth Malhotra's next OTT series, is creating a lot of buzz. Vivek Oberoi and Shilpa Shetty co-star in the show directed by Rohit Shetty. The creators have now revealed a fresh interpretation of Sidharth's role.Sidharth revealed earlier at the press conference that Rohit Shetty "has larger-than-life sensibilities." No one portrays heroes from Hindi cinema like Rohit Sir does. For years, I had been pursuing him to work with him. I had the opportunity to meet him about two years ago.
