Helicopter service must not disregard norms
-
The death of seven people in a helicopter crash on the Char Dham shuttle offers yet another tragic reminder of the dangers embedded in rapidly developing tourism infrastructure. This shuttle is a particularly egregious example of official disregard for safety. The crash near Gaurikund was one in a series of five helicopter accidents on this route in the past six weeks, two of them proving fatal and three involving malfunctioning machines.
At the heart of this casual approach to safety is the state government's indiscriminate promotion of religious tourism, which has become a critical revenue source for the state and its people. The result is ecological damage in one of the world's most fragile ecosystems, and this is increasingly risking lives and livelihoods.

Work-life balance tops job wish list for India's Gen Z
Infosys co-founder N R Narayana Murthy may still be extolling the virtues of a 72-hour work week. But Gen Z — broadly defined as those born between 1997 and 2012 — appears to be marching to a very different drumbeat: In a latest survey, nearly half of the 23,000 respondents from this age group said that the single most important factor when evaluating a job offer is, quite simply, “work-life balance”.
