Tukaram Mundhe, Maharashtra's food-safety chief, has gone viral this month for shutting famous restaurants and even noticing Shah Rukh Khan over an ad . Earlier this month his inspectors inspected around a dozen dark-store belonging to Blinkit, Zepto and Instamart. He isn't alone. On 22 August, a separate regulator in Telangana raided the dark stores behind grocery apps in Hyderabad, shutting four on the spot for expired stock and pests. Everyone's cheering the crackdown. But it can't fix what it found. To deliver in ten minutes, a dark store packs a supermarket's worth of stock into a residential space, moving so fast that the work of keeping food safe keeps losing out. That's what the model produces when it runs as designed. Quick commerce in India now runs on nearly 10 million orders a day. So why is there still no rule for the space your food waits in?Tune in.Daybreak is produced from the newsroom of The Ken, India's first subscriber-only business news platform.

VOV1 - Sau hơn một thập kỷ nhiều lần đình trệ vì biến động chính trị, dự án xây dựng thành phố Amaravati trở thành thủ phủ mới của bang Andhra Pradesh, Ấn Độ đang được tăng tốc trở lại. Thành phố được kỳ vọng không chỉ trở thành trung tâm hành chính mà còn là hình mẫu đô thị xanh, thông minh.Giữa vùng đồng bằng màu mỡ bên dòng sông Krishna, nơi từng chỉ có những cánh đồng lúa và vườn chuối, một đại công trường khổng lồ đang dần hiện ra. Hàng chục nghìn công nhân, cần cẩu và máy xúc làm việc ngày đêm để “bừng tỉnh” Amaravati – thành phố được kỳ vọng sẽ trở thành thủ phủ mới của bang Andhra Pradesh và là hình mẫu đô thị hiện đại của Ấn Độ.Đó là giấc mơ mà Thủ hiến bang Andhra Pradesh, ông N. Chandrababu Naidu, đã theo đuổi suốt hơn một thập kỷ. Ông muốn xây dựng Amaravati theo cảm hứng từ Singapore: một thành phố xanh, nơi người dân có thể sống, làm việc và di chuyển thuận tiện, chứ không chỉ là nơi tập trung các tòa nhà hành chính: “Singapore đã duy trì một hình mẫu chuẩn mực trong suốt 6 đến 7 thập kỷ qua, dù là một quốc gia nhỏ nhưng họ có cách tiếp cận nhất quán và năng động. Nhờ đó, họ đã đạt được thành công. Chúng ta đã nghiên cứu về Singapore rất rõ ràng. Phản hồi lại những gì chúng ta gửi đi, Singapore đã đưa ra một mô hình.  Mặc dù chúng ta tiếp nhận tất cả những kinh nghiệm thực tiễn tuyệt vời từ họ, nhưng chỉ khi chúng ta áp dụng nó vào thực tế thì nó mới tạo ra giá trị gia tăng. Còn nếu không được triển khai, nó sẽ mãi chỉ là lý thuyết”.Ngược dòng thời gian về năm 2014, khi bang Andhra Pradesh bị chia tách và thành phố Hyderabad – trung tâm kinh tế, công nghệ của bang này – thuộc về bang Telangana. Thành phố Amaravati vì thế được lựa chọn để xây dựng từ đầu như một thủ phủ hoàn toàn mới.Thế nhưng, dự án nhanh chóng rơi vào bế tắc. Sau khi chính quyền thay đổi, kế hoạch phân tán các cơ quan nhà nước sang ba thành phố khiến nhiều công trình bị bỏ dở. Hàng chục nghìn nông dân đã tự nguyện góp đất cho dự án phải chờ đợi suốt nhiều năm trong khi những cánh đồng đã không còn được canh tác.Đến năm 2026, Amaravati chính thức được xác nhận là thủ phủ duy nhất của bang, mở đường cho các dự án hạ tầng khởi động trở lại. Hiện nay, khoảng 25.000 công nhân đang làm việc mỗi ngày trên khu vực rộng hơn 200 km².Điểm đặc biệt của Amaravati nằm ở triết lý quy hoạch. Khoảng 60% diện tích thành phố được dành cho cây xanh, mặt nước và không gian công cộng. Hệ thống hồ điều hòa, kênh đào và hành lang thoát lũ được thiết kế để vừa tạo cảnh quan, vừa giảm nguy cơ ngập trong mùa mưa. Hàng nghìn kilômét đường dành cho xe đạp sẽ kết nối khu dân cư, trường học, công viên và các trung tâm thương mại.Tham vọng của thành phố cũng không dừng ở vai trò thủ phủ hành chính. Chính quyền bang đang phát triển “Thung lũng Lượng tử” – khu công nghệ hướng tới nghiên cứu trí tuệ nhân tạo, điện toán lượng tử và bán dẫn, với mục tiêu thu hút các tập đoàn công nghệ và trường đại học, tạo ra một cực tăng trưởng mới cạnh tranh với Bengaluru và Hyderabad.Để hiện thực hóa kế hoạch này, Andhra Pradesh đang triển khai các dự án có tổng giá trị gần 7 tỷ USD. Đây được xem là một trong những chương trình xây dựng đô thị lớn nhất của Ấn Độ hiện nay.Với Ấn Độ, Amaravati chính là phép thử quan trọng: liệu một quốc gia hơn 1,4 tỷ dân có thể xây dựng từ đầu một thành phố hiện đại, bền vững và thực sự đáng sống. Nếu hoàn thành đúng kế hoạch vào năm 2028, Amaravati có thể trở thành hình mẫu mới cho các đô thị tương lai của quốc gia Nam Á này./.Đình Nam/VOV New DelhiThủ hiến bang Andhra Pradesh, ông N.

VOV1 - Hiện tượng El Nino đang tác động rõ nét đến vụ mùa năm nay tại Ấn Độ khi nhiều bang ghi nhận tình trạng thiếu mưa, tiến độ gieo trồng chậm và nguy cơ thiếu nước gia tăng. Giới chuyên gia cảnh báo nếu diễn biến này kéo dài, sản lượng nông nghiệp, giá lương thực và tăng trưởng kinh tế.Bang Telangana, một trong những vùng sản xuất nông nghiệp trọng điểm ở miền Nam Ấn Độ, đang trở thành tâm điểm của những lo ngại. Hôm nay (13/7), người phát ngôn Đảng BRS – một đảng chính trị lớn ở bang, ông Ravula Sridhar, cho biết lượng mưa thiếu hụt do tác động của El Nino đã khiến hoạt động sản xuất vụ Kha-ríp (Kharif) - vụ mùa lớn nhất trong năm của Ấn Độ - bị đình trệ.Theo ông Ravula Sridhar, đến nay mới có khoảng 38% diện tích đất canh tác của bang được gieo trồng, trong khi diện tích gieo cấy lúa chỉ đạt 6,4%, thấp hơn rất nhiều so với tiến độ thông thường. Ông cảnh báo nếu mưa tiếp tục thiếu hụt trong những tuần tới, sản lượng lương thực của bang sẽ bị ảnh hưởng nghiêm trọng.Không chỉ nông nghiệp, Telangana còn đang chịu áp lực lớn về nguồn nước. Hiện thủ phủ Hyderabad đã bắt đầu đối mặt với tình trạng thiếu nước sinh hoạt. Ông Ravula Sridhar kêu gọi chính quyền bang khẩn trương triển khai các kế hoạch dự phòng nhằm bảo đảm nguồn nước cho người dân, đồng thời hỗ trợ nông dân ứng phó với diễn biến bất lợi của thời tiết.Những lo ngại tại bang Telangana phản ánh bức tranh chung của nhiều địa phương trên khắp Ấn Độ. Theo hãng tin Reuters, tính đến đầu tháng 7, diện tích gieo trồng vụ Kha-ríp trên cả nước vẫn thấp hơn khoảng 20% so với cùng kỳ năm trước. Tình trạng này buộc nhiều địa phương phải khuyến cáo nông dân chuyển sang các loại cây trồng chịu hạn như ngô, kê hoặc các loại đậu nhằm giảm thiểu rủi ro nếu lượng mưa tiếp tục thiếu hụt.Theo Cơ quan Khí tượng Ấn Độ (IMD), mặc dù gió mùa Tây Nam đã bao phủ toàn bộ lãnh thổ đúng thời điểm, song lượng mưa vẫn phân bổ “không đồng đều”. El Nino có thể khiến thời tiết diễn biến cực đoan hơn, vừa gây khô hạn kéo dài tại một số khu vực, vừa tạo ra những đợt mưa lớn cục bộ ở nơi khác. Điều này không chỉ ảnh hưởng đến năng suất cây trồng mà còn làm gia tăng nguy cơ lũ quét, ngập úng và thiệt hại đối với cơ sở hạ tầng nông nghiệp.Các chuyên gia cũng cảnh báo El Nino không chỉ tác động đến nông nghiệp mà còn ảnh hưởng đến nhiều lĩnh vực khác của nền kinh tế. Lượng nước về các hồ chứa suy giảm đang làm giảm sản lượng thủy điện, trong khi nhu cầu sử dụng điện tăng cao do nắng nóng kéo dài. Theo số liệu ngành điện Ấn Độ, sản lượng thủy điện trong tháng 6 đã giảm hơn 20% so với cùng kỳ năm trước do lượng nước về các hồ chứa suy giảm. Nếu sản lượng lúa gạo, đậu, bông và mía giảm, giá lương thực có thể tăng trở lại, sẽ gây áp lực lên lạm phát và thu nhập của hàng trăm triệu người dân Ấn Độ.Hiện ngành nông nghiệp tạo sinh kế cho gần một nửa lực lượng lao động và đóng góp khoảng 16–18% GDP của Ấn Độ. Trong bối cảnh mùa gió mùa Tây Nam cung cấp khoảng 70% lượng mưa hàng năm và quyết định phần lớn hoạt động sản xuất nông nghiệp, diễn biến của hiện tượng En Nino được dự báo sẽ ảnh hưởng trực tiếp đến sản lượng lương thực, nguồn nước, lạm phát và triển vọng tăng trưởng kinh tế của quốc gia Nam Á này./. Đình Nam/VOV Ấn ĐộHình ảnh minh họa

For decades, the H-1B visa program has been the centerpiece of America's high-skilled immigration system.  To its defenders, it is a vital pipeline that brings talented workers from around the world to power the U.S. economy. But, to its critics, it is a system rife with abuse—one that can undermine American workers while also trapping foreign workers in exploitative arrangements. A new book, Wild Wild East: Exiled Americans, Enslaved Indians and the Systemic Abuse of the H-1B Visa Programme, takes readers inside one especially shadowy corner of this world: the universe of so-called “desi consultancies.” These companies—also known as H-1B “body shops”— connect Indian tech workers to American employers through a maze of recruiters, subcontractors, universities, and corporate clients. The book follows the lives of Indian H-1B seekers, displaced American tech workers, and the firms that profit from a deeply broken system. It is at a story about immigration, labor exploitation, globalization, and the darker side of the U.S.-India tech corridor. To talk more about the book, Milan is joined on the show this week by its author, Tanul Thakur. Tanul is an award-winning journalist and film critic. In 2015, he won the National Film Award for Best Film Critic—the youngest critic to receive the honor. Wild Wild East is his first book. Milan and Tanul discuss the latter's firsthand experience with a “desi consultancy,” the exploitation many H-1B workers endure, and the role U.S. higher education plays in this ecosystem. Plus, the two discuss how Andhra Pradesh and Telangana became the epicenter of H-1B-related fraud and the ways in which the H-1B program can be reformed.  Episode notes: 1.        Aditya Mani Jha, “The human cost of H1-B dream: Review of Tanul Thakur's Wild Wild East,” Hindu, June 11, 2026. 2.        Tanul Thakur, “‘Heads they won, tails he lost': How ‘desi consultancies' prey on Indian grads in America,” NewsLaundry, May 24, 2026.  3.        Anant Gupta, “Indians slam MAGA ‘war' over H-1B skilled-worker visas as ‘racist,'” Washington Post, January 7, 2025.

Cancer is increasingly recognized as a major global health challenge, yet for people living through war, displacement, and humanitarian crises, access to even basic oncology services can be difficult or impossible. While emergency responses typically focus on trauma care, infectious diseases, and immediate survival needs, cancer care remains largely absent from many humanitarian health programs. A review paper on this topic was published in Volume 17 of Oncotarget titled “Cancer without borders: Policy frameworks for oncology care in humanitarian and conflict settings.” The study was led by first and corresponding author Pragnesh Parmar, with Gunvanti Rathod as co-author, both from AIIMS Bibinagar, Telangana, India.

BUFFALO, NY – April 13, 2026 – A new #review was #published in Volume 17 of Oncotarget on March 31, 2026, titled “Cancer without borders: Policy frameworks for oncology care in humanitarian and conflict settings.” The study—led by corresponding author Pragnesh Parmar, along with Gunvanti Rathod from AIIMS Bibinagar, Telangana, India—brings together evidence from peer-reviewed studies, global health reports, and case examples from regions such as Gaza, Sudan, and Ukraine to examine the structural, ethical, and policy barriers limiting access to cancer care in humanitarian settings. Their findings show that oncology services are often excluded from emergency health priorities, resulting in delayed diagnosis, treatment interruptions, and reduced access to palliative care. The review further highlights that disrupted infrastructure, legal constraints, and fragmented policies disproportionately impact vulnerable populations—including women, children, and the elderly—who often present with advanced disease stages due to delays in care. “Addressing cancer in humanitarian contexts is not merely a technical challenge but a moral imperative.” The authors conclude that integrating oncology into humanitarian response frameworks is essential to ensure equitable access to care and improve outcomes for displaced populations. They emphasize the need for coordinated global strategies, including cross-border care models, tele-oncology, and policy reform, to address this critical gap in global health systems.

From the annexation of the princely state of Hyderabad in September 1948 to the formation of Andhra Pradesh in 1956 and the eventual creation of Telangana in 2014--these broad brushstrokes of Hyderabad's history are well-documented. What has long been missing, however, is the perspective of the people, the different communities who lived through these upheavals--the communal violence of Independence and Partition, the push for a linguistic re-imagination of the state and its bifurcation, the long-drawn-out struggle for statehood--and those who were forced to adapt to a rapidly changing India. For the first time, Daneesh Majid brings their stories to light. Drawing from generational interviews, oral histories, literature in Urdu and English and his own personal experiences, he drafts a modern history of Hyderabad in The Hyderabadis: From 1947 to the Present Day (Harper Collins, 2025). A work of this scale and size has never been attempted before and The Hyderabadis promises to open new doors to the former kingdom's past and future. Learn more about your ad choices.

Buddhist sutras tell of a distant future, where the teachings of the Buddha we know have been entirely forgotten. This future city, ruled by a benevolent, wise king, is a utopia, where people want for nothing and live for over 80,000 years. But even this paradise is still in need of a teaching, that nothing lasts forever.This is the world of the future Buddha Maitreya, also known as Metteyya, the Buddha of loving kindness. Exploring Buddhist texts like the Descending Birth of Maitreya Sutra, the Lion's Roar of Maitreya Sutra, and the Gandavyuha Sutra, we find timeless wisdom, a warning against false prophets, and a dramatic vision of the infinite potential of loving kindness.Mythos & Logos are two ancient words that can be roughly translated as “Story & Meaning.”Support the channel by subscribing, liking, and commenting to join the conversation!Patreon: https://www.patreon.com/c/mythosandlogos00:00 Introduction00:10 Bodhisattva Maitreya, Indian Museum, Kolkata00:26 Gameplay from Cyberpunk 2077 by CD Projekt Red01:08 Leaves from a Gandavyuha Manuscript, Asia Society, New York, Rockefeller Collection01:28 The Future Age01:39 Buddhas of the Three Generation by Ding Guanpeng02:11 Buddha Teaching the Ramaga Sutra 佛說羅摩伽經 by Shengjian 聖堅02:34 Leaves from a Gandavyuha Manuscript, Asia Society, New York, Rockefeller Collection03:20 Minimundus Klagenfurt, Borobudur Tempel Magelang, Detail, Schubbay, Creative Commons03:43 Mucailnda Protects the Buddha from the Rain, at Wat Olak Madu, Kedah, Photo Dharma from Sadao, Thailand, Creative Commons03:56 Universal Monarch, Phanigiri, Telangana, Anandajoti Bhikkhu, Creative Commons04:22 Clothed statues of the Buddha in the ruined Khmer Hindu temple of Wat Phou, Champasak, Laos, Basile Morin, Creative Commons04:43 Maitreya, Art Gallery of New South Wales, Sydney05:26 Miniature Votive Stupa, Cleveland Museum of Art05:38 The Buddha Amitabha with the Eight Great Bodhisattvas, The Asian Museum, San Francisco06:08 The Lion's Roar06:46 Maitreya Buddha Triad, Gyeongju Art Museum07:22 Hungry Ghosts Scroll, Kyoto National Museum08:30 Maitreya's Tower08:52 The Mong Xuanzang, Tokyo National Museum09:06 The Eighteen Arhats Traversing the Sea, The Museum of Chinese Art and Ethnography, Parma09:50 The Transmission of the Teachings of the Gelugpa Sect, The Asian Art Museum, San Francisco10:00 Seven Leaves from a Manuscript of the Gandavyuha Sutra, Cleveland Museum of Art10:16 View of Borobudur, Indonesia, Anandajoti Bhikkhu, Creative Commons10:24 Maitreya, Museum of Oriental Art, Torino10:41 Maitreya Makes a Gift of a Throne, Borobudur, Anandajoti Bhikkhu, Photo Dharma from Sadao, Thailand, Creative Commons10:52 Maitreya Makes a Gift of a Woman, Borobudur, Anandajoti Bhikkhu, Photo Dharma from Sadao, Thailand, Creative Commons10:58 Stone Buddhas of Yonghwasa Temple, Cheongju, Cheongju Early Printing Museum11:11 Sudhana's Pilgrimage to Fifty Five Spiritual Teachers as Described in the Flower Garland Sutra, Nara National Museum11:19 Conclusion: Nothing Lasts Forever.

Karnataka keeps talking about decentralizing tech beyond Bengaluru. Its neighbors are actually doing it.Tamil Nadu, Telangana, and Andhra Pradesh are building tech cities from scratch—tier-2 clusters with land banks, fast-track approvals, and statutory bodies with real power. Major companies are choosing Visakhapatnam and Tirupati over Bengaluru now.The difference? Decision-making authority. Karnataka's development body is stuck in a promotional role while other states hand their institutions the teeth to actually execute. One state makes announcements. The others are laying fiber, clearing land, and signing deals.Southern India's tech map is being redrawn. Just not by the state that started it all.If you have any thoughts on this episode write to us at podcasts@the-ken.com with Daybreak in the subject line.

In this profound wisdom session, Dylan sits with Dr Krishna Raju to explore how fear consciousness disrupts health, and how prāṇa, pulse awareness, and subtle Ayurvedic sciences restore balance at the deepest level.Rather than approaching disease as something external to fight, this conversation returns to a core Ayurvedic truth: health and illness arise first in consciousness. Through stories, clinical insights, and lineage-based knowledge, Dr Raju explains how fear weakens prāṇa, how confidence and understanding support healing, and why Ayurveda prioritises early imbalance long before disease manifests.This episode weaves together classical Ayurvedic philosophy, pulse wisdom, marma science, and lived experience from generations of Vaidyas, offering a rare glimpse into healing that begins within.IN THIS EPISODE WE DISCUSS:

SC Gives a Shock to Rahul and Telangana Govt | Reservation Cannot Exceed 50% | Jitni Abadi Utna Haq

Send us a textWhat does it take to transform India's higher education system? Professor V. Ramgopal Rao brings a unique authority to this question, having journeyed from a Telugu-medium school in rural Telangana to leading IIT Delhi and now serving as Group Vice Chancellor at BITS Pilani.Professor Rao's remarkable story begins in a region known for poverty, where educational resources were scarce. Despite studying in Telugu medium throughout school, he excelled academically and eventually found his way to IIT Bombay for his Master's degree—a pivotal moment that revealed his exceptional talent for research. "I discovered myself at IIT Bombay," he reflects, acknowledging how this opportunity opened doors he never knew existed.Throughout our conversation, Professor Rao emphasizes adaptation as the cornerstone of success. His ability to form meaningful relationships, remain humble, and adapt to new environments propelled him forward at each stage of his journey. This quality, combined with his intellectual curiosity, has resulted in over 500 publications, more than 50 patents, and global recognition in nanoelectronics.The most compelling portion of our discussion focuses on Professor Rao's passionate call for structural reforms in Indian higher education. He articulates specific problems holding back our institutions: the absence of outcome-linked funding models, insufficient administrative autonomy, and inadequate incentives for philanthropy and research. "We need 1991-style reforms in the higher education sector," he declares, drawing a parallel to India's economic liberalization.His leadership during the COVID-19 pandemic demonstrates what's possible when institutions have clear priorities. Under his direction, IIT Delhi developed technologies that helped 15 million people, including affordable RT-PCR kits that dramatically reduced testing costs nationwide. This success story exemplifies his conviction that Indian institutions possess tremendous untapped potential, waiting to be unleashed through thoughtful reform.Ready to hear more about transforming education and unleashing institutional excellence?

Father Richard John shares about his journey to the priesthood, the importance of hope and our call to serve and evangelize. Parish of the Week: St. Dominic Parish in Saginaw is our Parish of the Week.  Their Parochial Administrator, Fr. Richard John, joins us today!Message from Fr. Richard John – Ordained in 2009, I have now journeyed 16 years as a priest, and I share this reflection as a thanksgiving to the Lord who called me. I come from the Archdiocese of Hyderabad, Telangana, in southern India, and currently serve as the Parochial Administrator at St. Dominic Parish since 2023.Three early influences shaped my vocation: my grandmother Margaret John, whose daily Rosary and devotion to St. Anthony inspired a prayer movement in our neighborhood; my father Aron John, a daily communicant who introduced me to the beauty of the Eucharist; and my first encounter with the story of Mother Teresa, whose radical commitment deeply moved me as a child. These seeds of faith were nurtured by my parish priest, and I joined the seminary in 1998 after 10th grade.Growing up in a joint family of modest means, financial struggles were common. I often joined sports camps at school just for the meals. Yet, through God's providence and support like CFCA sponsorship from Sr. Shirley Ruder, a Dominican nun from Michigan, I could continue my education.Despite health challenges during formation, I experienced healing that confirmed my call. Over the years, I've served in various ministries — from being assistant to the archbishop, to working at St. Anthony's Shrine, teaching, radio ministry, and youth outreach.My path to Saginaw in 2022 was guided by God's providence, facilitated by friends, Fr. Raj, Fr. Bill and Bishop Gruss. I remain grateful to the Lord, the bishop, fellow clergy, and parishioners whose support makes this mission meaningful. Thank you
