The Joy of Real Indian Food is this week's brilliant discussion on the Business Awards Show. Founder of Tikka and Tadka, Roshni talks about her journey from NHS worker to award-winning Indian catering entrepreneur. Roshni's Journey: After years in the NHS, Roshni launched her authentic Indian home-style cooking business in April 2020 - right as lockdown hit. Instead of postponing, she pivoted to local curry nights in her village, which became so popular they evolved into her signature curry box service. The Mission: Roshni's passion is educating people about authentic Indian cuisine versus the Bangladeshi-influenced "Indian" food commonly served in UK restaurants. She uses family recipes passed down through four generations, techniques learned from her mother in Kolkata, and dishes collected from friends across different regions of India. Business Model: Curry Boxes: Pre-ordered weekly meal boxes with five different curries, delivered fresh and chilled on Thursdays across Oxfordshire Weddings: 3-4 weddings annually (already booked three for next year) Corporate Catering: Specializing in Indian street food, not traditional curry Supper Clubs: Quarterly events showcasing Bengali cuisine, including fusion menus like English pub classics with Bengali spices Award Success: Roshni won silver at The Best Businesswomen Awards after being encouraged to apply by others - the recognition provided crucial local exposure and customer trust. Future Plans: Roshni aims to expand the catering business while opening her own café serving diverse authentic Indian dishes beyond curry. About Roshni: Roshni is the founder and chef behind Tikka & Tadka, an Oxfordshire-based Indian catering business. She brings homestyle, regional Indian cooking to local homes and events, specialising in weekly curry boxes, private catering, pop-ups, and supper clubs. With a focus on fresh, seasonal ingredients and authentic flavours, Roshni combines traditional techniques with a modern approach to delivering memorable dining experiences. {2:14} The journey from the NHS to Indian cooking. {4:36} The drive to start a food business. {6:48} The difference between Indian and Bangladeshi food. {9:24} The challenge of catering for weddings. {9:50} Indian food is not just curry. {10:46} Roshni's curry boxes. {13:10} Running supper clubs. {14:03} Turning supper club clients into curry box customers. {14:53} How awards came on the radar. {16:43} The challenges of building Tikka and Tadka. {19:10} Roshni's marketing strategy. {20:06} Longer term plans. {21:54} Meeting Prue Leith. {22:27} Roshni's approach to networking. {23:46} Advice for setting up a food business. {25:08} The challenge of running a business while having young children.

pWotD Episode 3121: Sheikh Hasina Welcome to popular Wiki of the Day, spotlighting Wikipedia's most visited pages, giving you a peek into what the world is curious about today.With 199,741 views on Monday, 17 November 2025 our article of the day is Sheikh Hasina.Sheikh Hasina Wazed (born 28 September 1947) is a Bangladeshi politician who served as the tenth prime minister of Bangladesh from 1996 to 2001 and from 2009 to 2024. She was the longest-serving prime minister of Bangladesh since the country's independence and the longest-serving female head of government in the world. Her premiership was characterized by dictatorship, oligarchy, and crimes against humanity. She resigned and fled to India following the July Revolution in 2024, and in November 2025, she was found guilty of crimes against humanity by Bangladesh's International Crimes Tribunal and sentenced to death in absentia.Hasina is the daughter of Sheikh Mujibur Rahman, Bangladesh's founding president, and is a member of the Tungipara Sheikh political family. She had little presence in politics before her father's assassination in August 1975. Afterwards, she took asylum in India, became involved with the Awami League, and was elected as its president – a position which she continues to hold. After returning to Bangladesh in 1981, she and the Awami League became involved with the pro-democracy movement against the military rule of Hussain Muhammad Ershad, culminating in the 1990 Bangladesh mass uprising and the restoration of parliamentary democracy in the 1991 Bangladeshi general election.Following a narrow loss to Khaleda Zia's Bangladesh Nationalist Party (BNP) in the 1991 election, Hasina, as leader of the opposition, accused Zia's BNP of electoral dishonesty and boycotted the Parliament. This was followed by violent demonstrations and political turmoil, causing Zia to resign in favour of a caretaker government. Hasina was elected prime minister in the June 1996 election, and she was succeeded by Zia in July 2001. During the 2006–2008 political crisis, Hasina was detained on extortion charges. After her release from jail, her party won the 2008 election, and she became the prime minister for a second term.During Hasina's second premiership, Bangladesh witnessed democratic backsliding and widespread human rights abuses. Her re-elections in 2014, 2018, and 2024 were criticised by international observers as being fraudulent, with the earlier and latter being boycotted by the BNP. Human Rights Watch documented widespread enforced disappearances and extrajudicial killings under her government. Numerous politicians and journalists were systematically and judicially punished for challenging her views. Reporters Without Borders gave a negative assessment of Hasina's media policy for curbing press freedom in Bangladesh since 2014. A 2024 government report estimated that more than US$16 billion was annually laundered from the country during Hasina's tenure from 2009 to 2024, adding up to more than $240 billion over 15 years. Her government provided assistance to nearly a million Rohingya who had entered the country fleeing the genocide in Myanmar.In 2022, anti-government protests broke out demanding Hasina's resignation. These were followed in July 2024 by fresh student protests which demanded the reform of quotas in government jobs. The protests were met with brutal crackdown by law-enforcement agencies and paramilitary forces, resulting in massacre of students. By August, the protests intensified into a mass uprising against the government, culminating in Hasina resigning and fleeing to India. In February 2025, a UN OHCHR report found that she personally directed and coordinated the crackdown and that it may amount to crimes against humanity. In November 2025, she was convicted of crimes against humanity by Bangladesh's International Crimes Tribunal and sentenced to death in absentia. Hasina stated the trial was a "farce trial" driven by a "political vendetta."Hasina was among Time's 100 most influential people in the world in 2018, and was listed as being one of the 100 most powerful women in the world by Forbes in 2015, 2018, and 2022.This recording reflects the Wikipedia text as of 02:49 UTC on Tuesday, 18 November 2025.For the full current version of the article, see Sheikh Hasina on Wikipedia.This podcast uses content from Wikipedia under the Creative Commons Attribution-ShareAlike License.Visit our archives at wikioftheday.com and subscribe to stay updated on new episodes.Follow us on Bluesky at @wikioftheday.com.Also check out Curmudgeon's Corner, a current events podcast.Until next time, I'm standard Salli.
Bangladesh's former prime minister Sheikh Hasina has been sentenced to death for crimes against humanity in abstentia over her crackdown on student-led protests, which led to her ousting.Sheikh Hasina was found guilty of allowing lethal force to be used against protesters, 1,400 of whom died during the unrest last year.

The BBC has sent a letter of apology to Donald Trump, saying it regrets the way a programme spliced together parts of his speech from the day of the Capitol riots. But the corporation's lawyers have rejected Mr Trump's demand for compensation. The president has threatened to sue the BBC for $1bn over the edited clip. Also: The former Bangladeshi prime minister Sheikh Hasina has denied committing crimes against humanity.

In this Week 42 edition of the GMS Weekly Podcast, we review another turbulent week in the global ship recycling markets, shaped by volatile currencies, a softening steel market, and shifting regional sentiment across India, Bangladesh, Pakistan, and Turkey. Global Market Overview Freight markets strengthened slightly as the Baltic Dry Index gained just over 1%, supported by Capesize, Panamax, and Dry segments. Oil prices continued to slide, closing near USD 57.38 per barrel, down 8% month-on-month and 18% year-on-year. Currencies stayed under pressure across the Sub-continent: the Indian rupee hovered near Rs 88.02 per USD, the Pakistani rupee weakened to PKR 283.6, the Bangladeshi taka slipped to BDT 122, and the Turkish lira traded close to TRY 42. Steel plate prices fluctuated across regions, with India around USD 389 per ton, Pakistan steady near USD 614, and Bangladesh holding around USD 519. Bangladesh After brief optimism, Chattogram slowed again. Local recyclers paused new purchases despite steel holding near USD 519 per ton and the taka weakening to BDT 122 per USD. Inventories continued to build while the market waited for political clarity and a new government direction. India Alang remained quiet as steel plates fell to USD 389 per ton and the rupee traded near Rs 88 per USD. Over 120,000 LDT of vessels arrived, but buyers mostly stayed away ahead of Diwali. Sentiment remains weak despite steady arrivals. Pakistan Inflation and cheaper Iranian steel imports pushed domestic plate prices down to USD 614 per ton. The rupee depreciated to PKR 283.6 per USD, and no yards have yet achieved Hong Kong Convention accreditation. Most buyers remain cautious and on hold. Turkey The Turkish lira closed around TRY 42 per USD. Offers were steady, but activity was limited as the year-end approaches and tonnage supply remains tight. Market Sentiment Volatility, inflation, and regulatory uncertainty continue to shape the global ship recycling landscape. India faces pricing pressure, Bangladesh is cautiously reawakening, Pakistan struggles with inflation and compliance, and Turkey stays muted.

In this Week 38 edition of the GMS Weekly Podcast, we cover the latest ship-recycling market trends, freight activity, steel prices, and key port updates from India, Bangladesh, Pakistan, and Turkey. This week's theme: September Serene? Global Market Overview Freight activity stayed mixed as the Baltic Dry Index held steady: Capesize gained about 1 percent, while Panamax and Supramax fell nearly 2 percent and 3 percent. Oil prices moved only slightly higher, with WTI crude closing at USD 62.74 per barrel, still down 1.4 percent for the month and 10.8 percent year on year. Currency markets softened: Indian rupee firmed to INR 88.09, Pakistani rupee to PKR 283.44, Bangladeshi taka to BDT 121.74, while Turkish lira slipped to TRY 41.41. Steel plate prices were steady across major recycling hubs: India USD 448 per ton, Pakistan USD 619 per ton, Bangladesh USD 519 per ton. Bangladesh Activity remains sporadic. Recyclers focused on larger LDT and LNG units as smaller ships drew little interest. One fresh LDT tanker arrival broke the quiet. The taka eased to BDT 121.74 and steel plate prices held at USD 519 per ton. With February 2026 elections ahead and infrastructure demand weak, most recyclers stay cautious. India Alang stayed the busiest yard, recording about 84 K LDT of arrivals including several OFAC-listed or sanctioned units that other markets rejected. Prime Minister Modi's visit to Bhavnagar caused partial shutdowns, but demand held firm. The rupee strengthened to INR 88.09 and steel plate prices remained flat at USD 448 per ton. India continues to lead LNG recycling sales. Pakistan Gadani logged a third straight week of no arrivals. DASR certification and slow Hong Kong Convention yard upgrades continue to limit activity. Still, fundamentals are strong: PKR strengthened to 283.44 and steel plate prices remain near the industry high at USD 619 per ton. Progress on HKC compliance could allow a market rebound later this year. Turkey The market remained quiet. The lira weakened further to TRY 41.41, import steel prices fell for a second consecutive week, and recycling activity stayed minimal. Beach Breakdown Global freight markets steadied and steel prices were unchanged. India saw the most arrivals, Bangladesh stayed selective, Pakistan waited for yard approvals, and Turkey remained subdued.

Have you ever wondered what makes Bangladeshi cuisine distinctive in a world where "curry" often becomes the default descriptor for South Asian food? This week, we learn about the vibrant food culture of Bangladesh with Anika Chowdhury, food blogger and contestant from PBS's The Great American Recipe.(01:04) Anika shares her Bangladesh – "a country obsessed with food" – where she grew up surrounded by passionate food conversations and deeply seasonal cooking. Unlike our American supermarkets where ingredients appear year-round, Anika describes the special anticipation of waiting for tomatoes in winter or mangoes before monsoon season. (16:17) Anika is on a mission to showcase Bangladeshi cuisine beyond curry dishes. She explains how the simple techniques of her culinary heritage make seemingly complex flavors accessible to home cooks everywhere. As proof, she walks us through preparing tomato bhorta, a versatile dish perfect for summer's tomato bounty. Find more Bangladeshi dishes on Anika's blog, Kitchen Gatherings. (23:53) We also welcome Karen Hoang as our newest contributor! This Vietnamese-American transplant shares her journey from rarely dining out as a child of immigrants to becoming one of Pittsburgh's most enthusiastic food explorers. And she has the social media content to prove it. Support the showLiked the episode? We'd love a coffee!

Steel plate prices: India flat at USD 448.88/ton, Pakistan firm at USD 625.44/ton, Bangladesh down sharply to USD 519.59/ton. Bangladesh: No fresh arrivals. Steel imports pressured prices, down over USD 21 this week. Only 21 operational yards remain, down from 35. Political uncertainty ahead of the 2026 election continues to stall Chattogram.

//The Wire//2300Z September 2, 2025////ROUTINE////BLUF: WHITE HOUSE ANNOUNCES DECISION TO DEPLOY TROOPS TO CHICAGO, AS LOCAL OFFICIALS URGE RESISTANCE. KINETIC STRIKE REPORTED IN CARIBBEAN SEA AS US NAVY SINKS SUSPECTED NARCO VESSEL.// -----BEGIN TEARLINE------International Events-Australia: The overall situation remains tense following the continuation of various immigration related issues around the continent. This morning a Bangladeshi man was charged with various offenses for his role in causing a traffic accident which killed two people in New South Wales over the weekend.Analyst Comment: Over the past few weeks, similar atmospherics to what have sprung up in England have also taken root in some places around Australia, with many demonstrations and protests popping up over the past few days. It's tough to say how impactful these demonstrations are, but these types of events do highlight that dissent is growing.France: A high profile shooting took place in Marseilles this morning, following a knife attack that originated from a dispute at a hotel. Local authorities state that a migrant from Tunisia was living at a hotel in the downtown area, but was confronted by hotel staff after failing to pay his bill. This resulted in the man becoming belligerent, producing a knife, and stabbing 4x people at the hotel (including the manager and other staff members). Plain-clothes police from the Anti-Crime Brigade (BAC) responded quickly to the scene, making contact with the man on the street a short distance from the hotel. The man made jihadi comments before attacking the police, which resulted in him being shot and killed. No word yet on the condition of the hotel staff wounded during the attack.Analyst Comment: The assailant was identified as 35-year-old "Abdelkader D", and allegedly had an extensive criminal record. Due to this record, the assailant was already known to police, but nevertheless was given a residency permit valid until 2032. Caribbean: This afternoon the White House announced the kinetic targeting of a vessel suspected of trafficking narcotics. The vessel was engaged and possibly sunk after departing from Venezuela, with no survivors being reported following the strike.Analyst Comment: Beyond the initial announcement, almost zero additional details have been provided. Nevertheless, this targeting is an escalation of the conflict and serves to indicate that kinetic targeting efforts have been authorized. Normally, the standard interdiction tactics have involved the disabling of suspected narco-vessels, which often relies upon using "lethal" weapons to shoot a vessel's engine to render it inoperable. In this case, the White House has so far referred to this incident as a "lethal strike", though without commenting on the type of weapon system used for this engagement. In any case, this targeting effort suggests that the policy has now changed to more of a "shoot first, ask questions later" policy.-HomeFront-Illinois: Tensions continue as the federal involvement in Chicago looms. Over the past few days, the White House has continued to express plans to deploy National Guard forces around the city to combat crime. At one of yesterday's protest events, Mayor Brandon Johnson has called on city residents to "defend" the city when troops arrive.-----END TEARLINE-----Analyst Comments: Most of the rhetoric from Chicago officials is purely posturing. However as the federal deployment of troops comes to fruition, the potential for bad things to happen very quickly always remains a risk. No one can argue that Chicago is a safe city, and even the most anti-Trump demonstrators have to admit that the extreme levels of crime have only gotten worse over the years. On the other hand, there's no guarantee that the city's problems will be solved with the National Guard. And since local politicians and powe
With the West's ability to promote democratic transitions essentially dead, a struggle for influence is unfolding inside Bangladesh. Its traditional alliance with India is being replaced by a scramble for economic influence among China, Pakistan, the US, and Russia – none of whom are genuinely committed to promoting free elections inside the country. If you add in the fallout from the recent India-Pakistan war and Trump's tarriffs against India for importing Russian crude, you could say that a full-blown great game for South Asia is a foot. Amidst this backdrop, we return to our investigation of Bangladesh as a microcosm of the Global Enduring Disorder. There, a year ago Sheikha Hasina was removed by student protests. Since then the Nobel Laurate Mohammad Younis has been presiding over a caretaker government, which has pledged it will hold elections in February 2026. On today's pod, we will explore how the IG (interim government) in Bangladesh has essentially done all the same things that it accused the previous government of doing- locking up journalists, being repressive, taking over the economy, favouring cronies, and shying away from democratic reforms. They have said the election will be Feb but many analysts we spoke to don't believe them. We at the Disorder pod think it is equally our role to try to hold Bangladeshi politicians to account to honour their laws and commitments, just as we would do with Trump when he violates the constitution or tries to tamper with Federal Reserve Independence. Being tough on developing world democracies is our sign of respect for them. To help guide the mega orderers on this journey, Jason is joined by Taufiq Rahim.

Israel's security cabinet approves Netanyahu's plan to reoccupy Gaza Thousands of Israelis protest Netanyahu's Gaza reoccupation plan Trump says Russia-Ukraine ceasefire decision 'up to Putin' UAE rejects Sudan claim of bombing plane with mercenaries India's Assam state to arm locals against 'illegal Bangladeshis'
Ed Cox, State GOP Chairman, reflects on Rudy Giuliani's controversial endorsement of Democrat Mario Cuomo years ago, defending his own role in lending Giuliani a plane at the time, shifting to the rise of progressive political energy in New York, tracing it back to Bernie Sanders' 2016 campaign and the emergence of figures like AOC and Zohran Mamdani. Cox discusses how Mamdani has built strong grassroots support, particularly within the Muslim and Bangladeshi communities. Despite criticism for being anti-police, he was respectfully received at the funeral for the Muslim NYPD officer who was murdered in the midtown shooting earlier this week. Cox also dives into international politics, highlighting comments from the Israeli Consul General about Hamas stealing food aid in Gaza and Qatar's financial involvement with Hamas, allegedly with Mossad's cooperation.

For days now, Gurugram's society WhatsApp groups and Reddit forums have buzzed with a slow-rising panic. The domestic workers have vanished. The cooks, the nannies, the food delivery executives, the sanitation workers—the invisible army that keeps Gurugram functioning—have fled in terror of the crackdown on “illegal” Bangladeshi immigrants. As kitchen countertops remain dirty and impromptu garbage dumps appear on abandoned plots, the city's residents are discovering what their gleaming towers are actually worth, in the absence of the people who have summarily been branded as threats. https://theprint.in/opinion/no-other-city-is-like-gurugram-so-mismanaged-yet-so-highly-spoken-of/2705567/
