Researchers at Jawaharlal Nehru Centre for Advanced Scientific Research (JNCASR), Bengaluru (an autonomous institution under the Department of Science & Technology, Govt. of India) and other research team members have found an unusual wave-like thermal transport regime in a newly studied copper chalcogenide material, TlCu5Se3 that can lead to high-performance thermoelectric conversion.
Artificial intelligence will also be used to improve multilingual call handling. The system is expected to incorporate Indian-language speech-recognition technologies so that travellers can communicate more easily in their preferred languages.

CarbonCraft’s approach combines materials engineering with traditional Indian craftsmanship. The technology determines how difficult waste streams can be processed and incorporated into stable construction materials, while artisans manufacture and finish products that can be used as visible architectural surfaces. This combination allows the company to approach waste recycling not merely as an environmental service but as a source of commercially usable building products.
The Mahabharata explicitly remembers the Kuntalas among the peoples of Bharatavarsha. In one of the geographical descriptions of the Bhishma Parva, the Kuntalas occur among the peoples and provinces of ancient India, while another passage places them specifically among the kingdoms of the south alongside the Dravidas, Keralas, Vanavashikas, Karanatakas and other southern peoples. This provides an important textual basis for associating the principal Kuntala country with the Deccan.

The Institute for Plasma Research, an aided institute of the Department of Atomic Energy, confirms that the 82.6 GHz Electron Cyclotron Resonance Heating system can deliver up to 400 kilowatts of radio-frequency power for pulses lasting up to 0.5 seconds. The system has been integrated with SST-1 for experiments involving plasma formation and heating.
The Ministry of Defence describes the engagement as the “Longest Surface to Air Kill” and places it within the Indian Air Force’s wider integrated air-defence operations during the four-day confrontation between May 7 and 10, 2025.
