India and Kiribati Deepen Healthcare Cooperation as Pacific Partnership Gains New Momentum

India’s role in this partnership is built around affordable and accessible healthcare. As one of the world’s largest producers of generic medicines, India can support partner countries with high-quality drugs at reasonable cost.

Reliable access to Indian medicines can help Kiribati strengthen public hospitals, clinics and community health services.

PM-VBRY: Centre Moves to Direct Incentive Stage in India’s Formal Jobs Push

PM-VBRY is built around a simple economic idea: encourage youth to enter the formal workforce and reward employers for creating additional jobs.

India Raises Domestic LPG Production by 25% as Energy Security Measures Take Effect

This is a significant step because LPG is one of India’s most important household fuels.

Ernakulathappan Temple: The Shiva Shrine at the Heart of Kochi

The temple is dedicated to Lord Shiva. The district tradition describes it as one of the rare Shiva temples where the deity faces west, toward the sea. This west-facing presence gives the shrine a special character. Kerala’s coastline, backwaters and sea-facing geography have always shaped its life. Ernakulathappan’s orientation toward the waters adds to the temple’s sense of guardianship over land, city and coast.
