Congress walkout exposes its anti-women Mindset: BJP

The Bharatiya Janata Party (BJP) today strongly condemned the conduct of the Congress party during the discussion on the historic Nari Shakti Vandan Adhiniyam, the Women’s Reservation Bill, in Assam Legislative Assembly today.The BJP, in a statement, said, "At a time when the nation was witnessing a landmark step towards women empowerment and greater political participation of women, the Congress party chose to stage a protest and walk out instead of participating constructively in the discussion. Such behaviour clearly exposes the anti-women mindset of the Congress party, which has repeatedly failed to genuinely support women-led progress in the country."The people of India must ask, if Congress truly stood for women empowerment, why did they refuse to participate in a debate concerning ...

Secular Pivot: West Bengal Phases Out Religion-Based Stipends to Pivot Towards Direct Universal Welfare

In a significant programmatic and political realignment, the West Bengal government has officially decided to end its controversial monthly stipend schemes for imams, muezzins, and Hindu temple priests. This major policy shift marks the conclusion of long-standing, state-supported honorariums for religious clerics, which had frequently been at the center of intense legal challenges and political debates regarding state secularism. Moving away from religion-based budgetary allocations, the state administration is redirecting its focus and resources toward broad-based, universal socio-economic development initiatives. Coinciding with the discontinuation of the cleric stipends, the state government has announced a massive expansion of its secular social safety net. Under the newly unveile...

Tripura’s Forests Yield New Gecko Species Discovery

A team of Indian researchers from Assam, Meghalaya, Tripura, and Mizoram has discovered a new species of bent-toed gecko, Cyrtodactylus jayadityai, in the lowland forests of North Tripura. The finding, published in the European Journal of Taxonomy on April 14, marks a significant addition to India’s reptile diversity. The species was identified using an integrative approach combining morphological, statistical, and molecular analyses. Researchers confirmed it as distinct from its closest relative, Cyrtodactylus tripuraensis, with a genetic divergence of 4.7–5.2% in the mitochondrial ND2 gene. With this discovery, the number of Cyrtodactylus species in Northeast India has increased to 31, reinforcing the region’s importance within the Indo-Burma biodiversity hotspot. The new species...

Mission Success: Artemis II Crew Makes Historic Splashdown in the Pacific After Breaking Lunar Records

In a flawless conclusion to a mission that has captivated the globe, NASA’s Orion spacecraft, named Integrity, successfully splashed down in the Pacific Ocean off the coast of San Diego on Friday evening. The return marked the first time in over 50 years that humans have journeyed to the Moon and safely returned, signaling a triumphant milestone for the Artemis program. On board were NASA astronauts Reid Wiseman, Victor Glover, and Christina Koch, along with Canadian Space Agency astronaut Jeremy Hansen. Their nearly 10-day voyage took them farther from Earth than any human in history—reaching a staggering distance of 252,756 miles (406,771 km) and surpassing the previous record held by the Apollo 13 crew. The mission served as a critical validation of the spacecraft’s life-support and na...

The Vulnerability of Perfection: Did an F-35 Fall Victim to a Low-Tech Trap Over Iran?

In a stunning development that has sent shockwaves through the global defense community, unconfirmed reports suggest that a Lockheed Martin F-35 Lightning II—the world’s most advanced stealth fighter—may have been intercepted or downed during a high-stakes reconnaissance mission over Iranian airspace. While the Pentagon has yet to officially confirm the loss of the airframe, leaked intelligence and local footage indicate that the "invisible" jet may have fallen victim to an ingeniously simple, low-tech countermeasure that exploited the very technology designed to make it invincible. Military analysts are calling this a classic case of a "high-tech solution backfiring against a low-tech problem," as Iran appears to have utilized a decentralized network of passive acoustic sensors and VHF-r...

Piped Dreams: Why Infrastructure Gaps Leave PNG Unable to Solve the LPG Crisis

As global energy supply chains buckle under the weight of West Asia’s escalating conflicts, millions of Indian households find themselves caught in a tightening LPG squeeze. While the government has invoked the Essential Commodities Act to prioritize domestic fuel, a persistent question lingers: Why can’t Piped Natural Gas (PNG) simply step in to fill the void? Despite the promise of "uninterrupted supply," the transition from cylinders to pipelines is currently more of a pipe dream than a quick fix for the nation's 33 crore gas connections. The primary hurdle is a massive infrastructure deficit. Unlike LPG, which is highly portable and can be delivered via truck to the remotest corners of the country, PNG requires a sprawling, permanent network of underground pipelines. Currently, thi...
