VALLEY OF HOPE: Terrorism has claimed over 12,000 civilian lives in Jammu and Kashmir since 1990. Yet, not even a dozen of them have got justice.

GUJARAT: From social exclusion to broken buildings, Gujarat’s anganwadis are letting down the state’s most vulnerable children.

RAILWAY CHILDREN: In 2024, close to 15,000 children were rescued from railway stations across the country, which is a threefold increase from 2020.

SYRIA: In Daraa, the birthplace of the Syrian revolution, village women step up to uncover and clear landmines.

The gift of a lifetime

Some gifts are quiet. They are not wrapped or celebrated, but they carry the power to change everything. Organ donation is one such gift—a silent act of generosity that gives another person the chance to live.

Hot scene and Coldplay

The heat is on! The historic Coldplay concert at the Gillette Stadium in the US will go down as one of the most memorable music events in recent times. And the achievement has nothing to do with music! The global controversy has to do with an incriminating image flashed on a jumbo screen during the show. The villain is technology, and a device called the 'kiss cam' widely used during concerts to capture candid shots of canoodling couples. It is seen as a harmless distraction—a gimmick nobody takes seriously.

The 11th nerve

The 11th cranial nerve, or the accessory nerve, is a fascinating component of our neural orchestra. Imagine it as the unsung hero, the crucial control cable specifically designed to empower two wonderfully expressive movements: shrugging your shoulders (perfect for feigning ignorance or expressing exasperation), and turning your head away from your shoulder (excellent for avoiding awkward eye contact or perfecting that dramatic exit).

Space for short stories not shrinking

It is a great time for translated works in India. After Tomb of Sand by writer-translator duo Geetanjali Shree and Daisy Rockwell won the International Booker Prize in 2022, it was the turn of the Kannada writer Banu Mushtaq's Heart Lamp to win the prize in 2025. Deepa Bhasthi translated into English Mushtaq's collection of 12 short stories she wrote in Kannada between 1990 and 2023.

Seeking a second innings

After nearly 44 years, I leave the corporate life, where I worked with companies that touched billions of lives across the globe— HUL, Colgate and Nestlé. Of these, 26 years were spent working with Nestlé across five markets, finally serving as the chairman and managing director of Nestlé India for 10 years. This transition into retirement marks a significant moment in my life, and I firmly believe it is essential to grace out on one's own terms, embracing the next innings with intention and purpose.

Cerebral cues

In the late 1800s, Italian physiologist Angelo Mosso made a curious observation while studying a patient with a skull defect that left part of the brain exposed. He noticed that when the patient became angry, the exposed area visibly swelled with blood. This led Mosso to explore the idea that changes in cerebral blood flow could reflect mental activity.
