A conversation about Indian design, style and approach to retail with Gabby Deeming founder of Daydress. A few years ago, I had a conversation with Taymoor Atigetchi, founder of Papier, about the impact of his Iranian roots on the way that he does business. That train of thought stayed with me and stayed with me to the point of preoccupation. And so now, here is the third in our series of interviews with entrepreneurs working in and influenced by a variety of countries and cultures. And so today, India. A place of vitality and vibrancy, an ancient, beautiful and spiritual country, hot and hectic and laced with entrepreneurship.To guide us safely and joyfully through the streets of Jaipur is Gabby Deeming, founder of Daydress. Daydress began with a single blockprint shirt dress. And every dress that has been made since carries that sense of pattern, delight, simplicity, confidence and elegance. These aren't dresses that are forgotten or bored of, they are treasured and collect memories in their swishing skirts.Gabby previously worked at House and Garden. A work trip to India bought unexpected change to her professional path. A block print, a dress, a realisation, a revelation; Daydress was born. After time juggling both House & Garden and Daydress, the fork in the road beckoned and Gabby committed to Daydress full time. The block printing, the femininity, the quality, the independence and purity of her style has enticed a loyal and delightful client base. She now splits her time between the UK and Jaipur and so is beautifully placed to discuss the Indian approach to design, to style, to retail and to doing business.I imagine that Gabby's joyful outlook and her lightness of touch mean that even working on cashflow and shipping is an elegant act as she sits bedecked in one of her beautiful designs. Anyone who takes an idea and brings it to reality, anyone who takes risks continually, anyone who is committed to their own aesthetic, anyone who does so with charm and grace, that's the best story to hear.So welcome to Up With The Lark and Daydress. Gabby told me that she finished her work day at dusk on her farm outside Jaipur listening to the evening temple drums – I do hope that wherever you end your day, Gabby's insights and encouragements with echo for you.Daydress: www.daydress.co.uk

Dans cet episode invité dans une soirée dans le palace de Jaipur, quelques jours en enfer de new Delhi puis un petit detour dans les montagnes du Laddakh à 5300m d'altitude.

In 1978, Nand Kishore Chaudhary (NKC) got a job offer from a Government bank and the chance to move from Churu to Jaipur -- something most people could only dream of back in the day.But, he declined that offer. He saw an opportunity in the carpets business which was a 100% export market and was growing steadily. He also saw this as an opportunity to impact lives and connect with people.So, he took a leap of faith. He took a loan of INR 5000 from his father. Bought a bicycle. Two looms. And started working with 9 artisans in Churu.And that's how Jaipur Rugs was born.Fast forward to today, he has created a sprawling empire with their carpets being exported to 60 different countries. They have trained >40,000 artisans and run various social initiatives via Jaipur Rugs Foundation.NKC & Jaipur Rugs are a shining example of how a business can create lasting impact in the lives of people.I learnt a lot while speaking to NKC and we spoke about a range of topics like:(02:03): How NKC started his entrepreneurial journey with INR 5,000(08:14): Inception of JaipurRugs — navigating early challenges of doing biz in the 1980s(14:49): What goes into making an exquisite handcrafted rug?

This is the Catch Up on 3 Things by The Indian Express and I am Ichha SHarmaToday is the 25 th of April and here are the headlinesAt least 25 tourists and a Valley resident were shot dead on Tuesday at a meadow near Pahalgam in Jammu and Kashmir in the deadliest terror attack on civilians in the country since the Mumbai 26/11 shootings. On Wednesday, India put on hold the Indus Waters Treaty, downgraded diplomatic relations with Pakistan, expelled diplomats and top defence officials from the Pakistan High Commission in Delhi, cancelled all visas granted to Pakistan nationals and directed them to leave the country in 48 hours, and shut the Attari-Wagah border after Resistance Front (TRF) is an offshoot of the Pakistan-based terror group Lashkar-e-Taiba (LeT). Meanwhile, yesterday Islamabad said it “shall exercise the right to hold all bilateral agreements with India, including but not limited to the Simla Agreement, in abeyance.” The reaction from Pakistan came after the country's Prime Minister Muhammad Shehbaz Sharif chaired a meeting of the National Security Committee. In the first high-level visit from the White House since the inauguration of President Donald Trump in January, US Vice-President J D Vance met Prime Minister Narendra Modi on Monday and both sides “welcomed the significant progress” in negotiations towards a India-US bilateral trade pact, framing it as a “new and modern trade agreement.” Vance on Tuesday praised India's heritage and strategic partnership with the US, saying, “I believe there is much that the US and India can accomplish together.” Speaking in Jaipur, he noted that both nations are working toward a bilateral trade agreement based on shared priorities. Referring to past policies, Vance said, “We are not here to preach,” and highlighted President Trump's vision to “rebalance global trade” and “build a bright new world” with partners like India.Pope Francis passed away after prolonged illness in Rome today, the Vatican confirmed in a video statement. Cardinal Kevin Ferrell, the Vatican camerlengo announced, quote  “At 7:35 this morning, the Bishop of Rome, Francis, returned to the home of the Father. His entire life was dedicated to the service of the Lord and of his Church,” unquote.  Pope Francis was hospitalised on 14th February, following complications from bronchitis and was diagnosed with bilateral pneumonia four days later. He spent over a month in medical care before returning to his residence to continue his recovery.After the recent Supreme Court order which annulled the appointments of over 25,000 West Bengal school staff but said that “untainted” teachers could remain in service until 31st of December this year, confusion had remained as to who the “untainted” teachers are. Now, a district-wise list of “untainted” teachers of Classes IX-X and XI-XII has reached the offices of District Inspectors (DIs) of schools. A verification process has begun. The SC had found that the 2016 recruitment process by the SSC was “tainted”. School headmasters have been asked to submit a list of their teachers' names, designations, subjects they teach, transfer histories, and confirmations that the names are in the “untainted” list.A wildfire in New Jersey has forced residents to evacuate the area and shut down a stretch of a major highway on Tuesday as the wildfire grew to more than 3,200 acres, officials said. One of the busiest highways in New Jersey, the Garden State Parkway, saw closures due to the spread of wildfire and the stretch between Barnegat and Lacey townships was closed and the traffic was diverted, Associated Press reported. According to New Jersey Forest Fire Service, over 3,000 residents have been evacuated from the area of the Jones Road Fire in Ocean County and about 1,320 structures remain threatened.

The funeral has been set for Saturday at 10 a.m. in St. Peter's Square.

"If India and the United States work together successfully, we're going to see a 21st century that is prosperous and peaceful," he said in a speech in the northwestern Indian city of Jaipur. "But I also believe that if we fail to work together successfully, the 21st century could be a very dark time for all of humanity."

This is the Catch Up on 3 Things by The Indian Express and I am Ichha Sharma.Today is the 22nd of April and here are today's headlines.En route to Jeddah today for a two-day visit to Saudi Arabia, Prime Minister Narendra Modi described the nation as “one of India's most valued partners — a maritime neighbour, a trusted friend and a strategic ally”. He also said that the partnership between the two countries has “limitless potential”. Modi is set to meet Crown Prince Mohammed bin Salman tonight, where both leaders are expected to discuss expanding cooperation in an array of crucial areas, such as energy, defence and trade, besides expediting Riyadh's $100 billion investment plan for India. Besides bilateral ties, the two leaders will also exchange views on pressing regional and global issues, including the overall situation in West Asia.In the first high-level visit from the White House since the inauguration of President Donald Trump in January, US Vice-President J D Vance met Prime Minister Narendra Modi on Monday and both sides “welcomed the significant progress” in negotiations towards a India-US bilateral trade pact, framing it as a “new and modern trade agreement.” Vance today praised India's heritage and strategic partnership with the US, saying, “I believe there is much that the US and India can accomplish together.” Speaking in Jaipur, he noted that both nations are working toward a bilateral trade agreement based on shared priorities. Referring to past policies, Vance said, “We are not here to preach,” and highlighted President Trump's vision to “rebalance global trade” and “build a bright new world” with partners like India. At least eight people, including tourists, were injured in a suspected militant attack in south Kashmir's Pahalgam today. Sources said two of the injured are critical. According to sources, militants opened fire on tourists at Baisaran, an off-the-road meadow in Pahalgam. Baisaran is a popular destination among tourists. Police sources said that at least eight people, including tourists, were injured in the shootout. Police sources said the number of injured could increase.A few days after warning against judicial overreach, Vice President Jagdeep Dhankhar emphasised today that Parliament is supreme, and elected representatives are the final arbiters of the Constitution. Addressing a gathering at an event called ‘Kartavyam' in Delhi University, marking 75 years of the Constitution, Dhankhar said, “There is no visualisation in Constitution of any authority above Parliament… elected representatives… They are the ultimate masters as to what (the) Constitution content will be.” He referred to Indira Gandhi's imposition of the Emergency in 1975 and her electoral defeat in 1977 to underscore how elected representatives are most accountable to the public.Gold prices are glittering above the Rs 1 lakh-level per 10 gm for the first time as the international prices surged after US President Donald Trump unveiled plans to overhaul the Federal Reserve. Gold consolidated its position as the best safe haven asset in the volatile global financial markets. The price of 24-karat gold (999 fineness) was quoted at Rs 1,00,000 per 10 gm in the Mumbai bullion market today. The price of 22 karat gold was quoted at Rs 91,600 per 10 gm on Tuesday as global markets continued to remain jittery over the Trump's tariff plans and his threat to revamp the US Fed that could lead to a spike in inflation and interest rates.US President Donald Trump is facing a significant dip in his economic approval ratings, with his performance on the economy registering the lowest numbers of his presidency. According to the latest CNBC All-America Economic Survey, broad discontent over issues like tariffs, inflation, and government spending has contributed to this decline. The surge of economic optimism that followed Trump's election in 2024 has all but disappeared, with more Americans now predicting that the economy will worsen, a stark shift from the hopeful outlook that marked earlier years. The survey revealed a sharp turn towards pessimism about the stock market as well, with many feeling uncertain about future economic prospects.This was the Catch Up on 3 Things by The Indian Express

Sona Falstaff, a hospital nurse in Bombay, has things more or less where she wants them. Yes, she faces a certain discrimination, positive and negative, because of her mixed heritage, which makes her a “half-half” in the lingo of 1930s India. She lives in a poor section of the city, and she must work to support herself and her aging mother. India itself is a state of flux as the British Raj comes to an end and demands for independence increase in intensity and volume. But all in all, Sona wants nothing more than to cling to the job and the life she knows. Yet when the painter Mira Novak is admitted to the hospital, she upends Sona's carefully constructed world. Mira's vibrancy, passion, and generosity awaken a yearning to explore that Sona didn't even know she had. But just as she begins to cherish the possibility of friendship, Mira dies, six days after entering the hospital. The job Sona loves is threatened by suspicion that she somehow contributed to the painter's death. Sona soon discovers that Mira has left her a set of four paintings with instructions to deliver them to their rightful owners. Now she faces a choice: fight for her job and play it safe at home, or take a chance on finding her true self in the wider world, whatever risk that involves? The contrast between Sona and Mira, the friendship that develops between them, and the slowly revealed history that lies beneath Sona's reluctance to take chances are all beautifully laid out in this well-written novel, making Six Days in Bombay (Mira Books, 2025) a delight to read. Alka Joshi is the internationally bestselling author of the Jaipur Trilogy: The Henna Artist, The Secret Keeper of Jaipur, and The Perfumist of Paris. Six Days in Bombay is her fourth novel. C. P. Lesley is the author of two historical fiction series set during the childhood of Ivan the Terrible and four other novels. Her next book, Song of the Steadfast, is due in 2025.

These new rules require permits for seven key rare earth elements, creating delays that could ripple through global supply chains. With China controlling nearly 90% of global supply and refining, this move hits American giants like Tesla, Lockheed Martin, and Apple. The U.S. has only one rare earth mine, intensifying the urgency to diversify supply chains. As Bloomberg reports, China's message is clear: if Washington plays tariffs, Beijing plays rare earths. Mehul Choksi Arrested in Belgium; India Pushes for Extradition Fugitive diamond trader Mehul Choksi—accused in the ₹14,000-crore PNB scam—has been arrested in Belgium. Indian agencies, including the CBI and ED, are preparing to travel to Brussels to expedite his extradition. Choksi, who obtained Belgian residency in 2023, is contesting the move on medical and human rights grounds. His lawyer cites poor prison conditions in India and claims the case is political. Belgium has acknowledged India's extradition request, setting the stage for a legal showdown that could mirror past cases like Sanjay Bhandari's. Dr Reddy's Slams Downsizing Rumors Amid Strong Q3 Earnings Dr Reddy's Laboratories has denied reports that it plans to cut workforce costs by 25%, calling the claims “factually incorrect.” Business Standard had reported that high-paid executives and R&D employees were being asked to resign or take voluntary retirement. However, the pharma major insists no such restructuring is happening. Financially, Dr Reddy's delivered a strong Q3 FY25—profit after tax rose 2% YoY to ₹1,413.3 crore, while revenue jumped 16% to ₹8,358.6 crore. Key growth came from India, Emerging Markets, and the Nicotine Replacement Therapy portfolio. EBITDA hit ₹2,298.2 crore, reflecting solid business fundamentals. Tata Capital Files for IPO, Only Third Tata Listing in 25 Years Tata Capital is preparing for a long-awaited IPO, marking the Tata Group's third public listing in a quarter-century, after TCS and Tata Technologies. The move follows an RBI mandate requiring systemically important NBFCs to go public by September 2025. The IPO is expected to raise ₹15,000–₹18,000 crore. Once plagued by bad loans and group-level turbulence, Tata Capital has pivoted under Chairman N. Chandrasekaran and CEO Rajiv Sabharwal, growing its loan book to ₹1.5 trillion. With strong focus on affordable housing and SMEs, the IPO is poised to reshape the NBFC space. OYO Faces FIR Over Alleged ₹22 Crore Revenue Inflation Samskara Resort in Jaipur has filed an FIR against OYO, accusing the travel aggregator of fabricating bookings worth ₹22.22 crore, which triggered a ₹2.66 crore GST notice. Madan Jain, associated with the resort, claims OYO backdated and inflated revenues even before their agreement began in April 2019. Actual bookings via OYO reportedly totaled just ₹10.95 lakh. The FIR names OYO founder Ritesh Agarwal and includes charges of cheating, forgery, and criminal conspiracy. Rajasthan's hotel federation alleges over 20 hotels received similar GST notices, pointing to a broader pattern of grievances against OYO, which is yet to respond.

Jantar Mantar, in Jaipur, India, is a fantasy land of science and architecture. Built in the 1700s, it houses about 20 astronomical instruments: beautiful arches, domes, and spires designed to plot the motions of the Sun and other objects. The observatory was founded by Maharaja Jai Singh II. It was one of five observatories he built across northern India, in the 1720s and ’30s. All of them were known as Jantar Mantar – a name that means “calculating machine.” The Jaipur site was the largest and most important. It’s also the best preserved. Jantar Mantar’s instruments were all designed to observe the heavens with the eye alone. Several of those were for tracking the motions of the Sun. And some of them were the largest of their kind ever built. One sundial, for example, had a shadow-casting marker almost 75 feet tall. The instruments allowed the site’s 20 or so astronomers to determine the time with an accuracy of just two seconds. They also set the calendar. Other instruments tracked the positions of the stars and planets. That includes a set of a dozen identical instruments, each of which aligned to one of the constellations of the zodiac. That provided important observations for court astrologers. The site was in steady use until about 1800, and intermittent use after that. It underwent several upgrades and restorations. Today, it’s a World Heritage site – an astronomical fantasy land. Script by Damond Benningfield

A nurse preceptor has just watched a trainee commit a serious error despite hours of lecture, reading, and hands on training. In spite of herself, she starts to heat up, much like the more severe clinical educators who trained her years ago. "Why can't you just get this right?" In this moment, how do we reset ourself to a place of care, curiosity, and compassion? How do we model a better culture of learning? How do we have our judgment, instead of our judgment having us? In "Curious Now with Jenny Rudolph," a social scientist takes on the hidden structures that shape our behavior, culture, communication, and learning in healthcare. In this interactive podcast, Jenny Rudolph will help listeners approach the thoughts, feelings, and judgments underlying their reactions in a psychologically safer manner, helping us to better connect with curiosity and compassion to the people around us, especially when we feel that they've done something "wrong." Jenny Rudolph has made a career exploring what makes clinicians, healthcare organizations, and health professions training programs tick. Underneath the surface of intelligent, capable people who care about doing their best are hidden patterns that interfere with how they perform. Hierarchy, ego, communication glitches, resilience, power, professional learning, and how learning happens all flow downstream into creating actions that work and actions that don't. Jenny found out the hard way that being too certain can get you in trouble. Demoted from third to second grade for poor academic performance when she arrived in Jaipur, India as an eight-year-old, she realized she had better get curious about how her new school and culture ran, and that curiosity has remained with her ever since. Jenny now works with clinicians around the world to help them develop their own love of that little dopamine drip of rewarding surprise when you find out something new about your colleagues and how they think. Whether trying to figure out a diagnosis, discovering what a learner is thinking, or upping your own clinical mastery, getting Curious Now is the solution.

From Mumbai to Imphal, Bhopal, Jaipur and Bengaluru-- how BJP leaders with mass base are trying to break free from Amit Shah's control and why, ThePrint Political Editor DK Singh analyses in this episode of #PoliticallyCorrect

Viajamos décadas atrás en el espaciotiempo en busca de joyas del pasado que nos traen ecos sefardíes en Nueva York, tradiciones macedonias y de los gitanos de Eslovaquia. Volvemos al presente para escuchar otras músicas populares, desde grabaciones estríctamente tradicionales a otras reelaboraciones, que nos hacen viajar por Bielorrusia, Ucrania, Polonia, Serbia o los Urales, escuchando también músicas de valacos, boikos o baskires. Terminamos en el subcontinente indio, con ecos de Lahore y Jaipur. We travel decades back in spacetime in search of gems from the past that bring us echoes of Sephardic sounds in New York, Macedonian traditions, and the Roma of Slovakia. We return to the present to listen to other popular music, from strictly traditional recordings to new reinterpretations, taking us on a journey through Belarus, Ukraine, Poland, Serbia, or the Urals, also hearing music from the Vlachs, Boykos, or Bashkirs.

I Sverige har debatten om hur kulturen ska finansieras blivit allt mer högljudd. Men hur funkar det i Indien? Lyssna på alla avsnitt i Sveriges Radio Play. Kulturens egenvärde och kulturens ekonomiska värde; två ingångar i en diskussion som ofta krockar. I Indien fick kulturdepartementet höjda anslag i budgeten som lades fram för några veckor sedan. En stor del av anslagen går till landets arkeologiska myndighet som har hand om närmare 3700 skyddade monument och kulturarv.I Indien har kultur och kulturutövande nära band till andlighet och religion och dess rikedom och mångfald lyfts ofta fram i offentliga sammanhang. Den privata finansieringen är också i allra högsta grad närvarande, inte minst i festivalsammanhang.Sveriges Radios Sydasienkorrespondent Naila Saleem har besökt ett sådant, Indiens och världens största litteraturfestival i Jaipur, Rajasthan.

Fluent Fiction - Hindi: Kites of Jaipur: Aarav's Journey Back to His Roots Find the full episode transcript, vocabulary words, and more:fluentfiction.com/hi/episode/2025-01-29-23-34-02-hi Story Transcript:Hi: जयपुर का आसमान पतंगों से भरा था।En: The Jaipur sky was filled with kites.Hi: सूरज अपनी पूरी गरमी बरसा रहा था, और मकर संक्रांति का उत्सव पूरे जोर-शोर से मनाया जा रहा था।En: The sun was shining with full intensity, and the festival of Makar Sankranti was being celebrated with great enthusiasm.Hi: आरव हवाई अड्डे से बाहर आया और ठंडी हवा ने उसका स्वागत किया।En: Aarav stepped out of the airport and was greeted by the cool breeze.Hi: वह कई सालों बाद अपने गाँव लौटा था।En: He was returning to his village after many years.Hi: उसे जयपुर और यहाँ की हरियाली याद तो थी, लेकिन कहीं ना कहीं, वह इस रंगीन संस्कृति से खुद को कटा हुआ महसूस करता था।En: He remembered Jaipur and its greenery, but somehow, he felt a bit disconnected from this colorful culture.Hi: आरव की मुलाकात उसके बचपन की दोस्त मीरा से हुई।En: Aarav met his childhood friend Meera.Hi: मीरा ने उसे गले लगाया, "आरव! तुम्हें यहाँ देखकर कितना अच्छा लग रहा है!"En: She hugged him, "Aarav! It's so nice to see you here!"Hi: मीरा एक स्कूल टीचर थी और त्योहारों की धूमधाम में विश्वास करती थी।En: Meera was a school teacher and believed in the vibrancy of festivals.Hi: उसने आरव को अपने साथ पतंग महोत्सव में चलने का न्योता दिया।En: She invited Aarav to join her for the kite festival.Hi: साथ ही, आरव का चचेरा भाई, रोहन, मुम्बई से आया था।En: Additionally, Aarav's cousin Rohan had come from Mumbai.Hi: वह हमेशा नई चीजें करने को तैयार रहता था।En: He was always ready to try new things.Hi: तीनों मिलकर जयपुर की तंग गलियों से होते हुए राजमहल तक पहुंचे।En: Together, the three of them made their way through the narrow lanes of Jaipur to the Rajmahal.Hi: वहाँ का नज़ारा देखते ही बनता था।En: The sight there was truly captivating.Hi: लोग छतों पर खड़े होकर पतंगबाजी का आनंद ले रहे थे।En: People were standing on rooftops enjoying kite flying.Hi: आरव को कहीं न कहीं अपने बचपन की याद आ रही थी।En: Somewhere, Aarav was reminded of his childhood.Hi: फिर भी, वह किसी अनजान शख्स की तरह महसूस कर रहा था, जो अपने शहर में खो सा गया था।En: Yet, he felt like a stranger who was a bit lost in his own city.Hi: मीरा ने उसे एक पतंग पकड़ाई।En: Meera handed him a kite.Hi: "चलो आरव, उड़ाओ इसे।" उसने आरव का उत्साह बढ़ाने की कोशिश की।En: "Come on Aarav, fly it," she urged, trying to boost his enthusiasm.Hi: लेकिन आरव कुछ हिचकिचा सा गया।En: But Aarav hesitated a bit.Hi: रोहन ने कहा, "भैया, यह मौका बार-बार नहीं मिलेगा। इधर देखो।"En: Rohan said, "Brother, you won't get this chance often. Look here."Hi: आरव ने धीरे-धीरे पतंग को थामा और उसे आसमान में उड़ाने की कोशिश की।En: Aarav slowly held the kite and attempted to fly it into the sky.Hi: हर झटका, हर खींच ने उसे एक अलग आनंद दिया।En: Every tug, every pull, gave him a different pleasure.Hi: वो ध्यान से देखता रहा, कैसे पतंगें हवा में खेल रही थीं।En: He watched attentively how the kites danced in the air.Hi: धीरे-धीरे उसकी हिचकिचाहट गायब होने लगी।En: Gradually, his hesitation faded away.Hi: झोंके के साथ पतंगें और ऊँची उड़ चलीं और आरव के चेहरे पर मुस्कान थी।En: With a gust, the kites soared higher, and a smile appeared on Aarav's face.Hi: फिर एक मुकाबले का ऐलान हुआ।En: Then an announcement for a competition was made.Hi: आरव ने मन में सोचा, "क्यों ना आज के दिन को यादगार बना लिया जाए।"En: Aarav thought to himself, "Why not make this day memorable?"Hi: वह मीरा और रोहन के साथ मुकाबले में शामिल हुआ।En: He joined Meera and Rohan in the competition.Hi: उसके अंदर का जज्बा जाग उठा और उसने पतंग उड़ा दी।En: The passion within him awakened, and he launched the kite.Hi: हवा में कटते हुए तारों की आवाज आई और आरव की पतंग ने बाजी मार ली।En: The sound of cutting strings filled the air, and Aarav's kite emerged victorious.Hi: सब खुशी से चिल्ला उठे और आरव को बधाइयाँ मिलने लगीं।En: Everyone cheered, and Aarav received congratulations.Hi: चमकते आसमान में आरव ने पहली बार महसूस किया कि वह अपनी जड़ों से कितना जुड़ा हुआ है।En: In the shimmering sky, Aarav felt for the first time how connected he was to his roots.Hi: उसे समझ में आ गया कि आधुनिक जीवन के साथ-साथ उसकी संस्कृति और परंपराएँ कितनी महत्वपूर्ण हैं।En: He realized how important his culture and traditions were alongside modern life.Hi: वह हमेशा जयपुर वापस आने का वादा करता है।En: He promised always to return to Jaipur.Hi: जब सब वापस लौटने लगे, आरव ने आकाश को देखा और मुस्कराया।En: As everyone started heading back, Aarav looked at the sky and smiled.Hi: अब वह जानता था कि उसका दिल हमेशा उसके गृहनगर में बेस देता रहेगा, और वह अपनी जड़ों को कभी नहीं भूलेगा।En: Now he knew that his heart would always dwell in his hometown, and he would never forget his roots.

There are certain joys, certain constants when it comes to the world of beer. And one of those has to be the pleasure when scanning the bar for a pint and you happen across the pump clip for Jaipur on cask.It's a seminal beer that has stood the test of time and this year the brewery responsible, Thornbridge, based in the Derbyshire Dales, celebrates the 20th anniversary of both that beer and the business, too.The Thornbridge story began back in 2005 when founders Jim Harrison and Simon Webster recruited two young brewers to brew on a second hand 10-barrel kit in the grounds of Thornbridge Hall.A journey that began in the small Stonemasons Workshop at Thornbridge Hall is one that has gone on to grow into the Riverside Brewery in Bakewell where the team produce some nine million pints of beer each year.Like any good business, the brewery has moved with the times. While Jaipur remains the flagship, its gluten-free Helles Lukas and Green Mountain, a 4.3% Hazy Session IPA, also account for a significant amount of the brewery's production.Thanks to a brewing team led by Ben Wood, Dominic Driscoll and Rob Lovatt, they create beers that cater for a wide and diverse audience.So as the celebrated brewery embarks on a year that will toast two decades in business, we caught up with co-founder Simon Webster to discuss the Thornbridge journey. We look at the recent fantastic new addition of a Burton Union set, why collaborations continue to play a key part in the brewery's proposition and, with new pub openings on the horizon, why Simon believes that such environments remain the best choice when it comes to enjoying a beer.
