The contract is based on Mumbai rainfall data sourced from the India Meteorological Department. It tracks how actual rainfall deviates from the city’s Long Period Average during the monsoon season. The system uses a Cumulative Deviation Rainfall model, developed with the involvement of IIT Bombay, to measure the difference between real rainfall and historical averages.
ABHA acts as a unique digital health identity for citizens. Once records are linked to an ABHA account, patients can access their medical history more easily and share relevant information with registered healthcare providers when needed. This can reduce paperwork, avoid repeated tests, improve continuity of care and help doctors make better-informed decisions, especially when patients move between different hospitals or health systems.
The latest export figure also reflects the steady globalisation of Indian tea. What was once seen largely as a domestic habit has become an expanding trade opportunity. Indian tea is now consumed across markets in West Asia, Europe, North America, Russia, China and other regions. The growing export value suggests that international buyers are not merely purchasing bulk tea, but increasingly recognising the diversity and quality of Indian varieties.
The protocol was signed by Dr. Senthil Pandian C., Ambassador and Permanent Representative of India to the WTO, on behalf of India. Ethiopia was represented by Tsegab Kebebew Daka, Ambassador and Permanent Representative of the Federal Democratic Republic of Ethiopia to the United Nations Office and other international organisations in Geneva. After the signing ceremony, the protocol and its annexes were formally handed over and deposited with the WTO Secretariat.
The specific challenge studied by the researchers is highly relevant to semi-cryogenic propulsion. In such engines, high-temperature gaseous oxygen can come into direct contact with liquid oxygen and must condense before entering the main pump. If the condensation remains incomplete, residual gas can disturb the pump’s performance and affect the smooth feeding of propellants into the engine. This is not a small laboratory curiosity; it is the kind of hidden internal behaviour that can determine whether a high-performance rocket engine runs efficiently and safely.
Vaikom is often called the Kasi of the South, not merely because it is an important Shiva kshetra, but because the temple carries the spiritual atmosphere of an old pilgrimage centre. Unlike many shrines known only to one sectarian tradition, Vaikom Mahadeva Temple is held in reverence by both Shaivites and Vaishnavites, giving it a wider devotional identity in Kerala’s sacred geography.
The agreement was signed recently in Oslo and is aimed at bringing advanced international expertise into India’s highway planning, tunnel construction, slope stability analysis, slope monitoring and institutional capacity building. According to the Ministry of Road Transport and Highways, the collaboration will help NHAI strengthen technical capabilities for developing National Highways to global standards, especially in geologically sensitive and challenging terrains.
Since its launch, the Rozgar Mela has become one of the major platforms through which the Government of India has accelerated the distribution of appointment letters to selected candidates. According to the Prime Minister’s Office, around 12 lakh recruitment letters have already been issued through the previous 18 Rozgar Melas organised across the country.
The missile is generally assessed to have a range of around 700 km, with an estimated payload capacity of about 1,000 kg. Open-source technical assessments describe Agni-I as roughly 15 metres long, around 1 metre in diameter, and solid-fuelled, making it a compact and mobile member of the Agni family. Its shorter range gives India a focused strategic option within the regional theatre, while its solid-fuel configuration supports faster readiness compared to older liquid-fuel systems.
One of the most important outcomes was the signing of an MoU to establish a Joint Working Group on counter-terrorism. This reflects the growing convergence between India and Cyprus on security challenges, particularly at a time when both nations recognise the need for stronger international cooperation against terrorism, radical networks, organised crime and security threats that cross national borders. The mechanism is expected to give both sides a structured platform for dialogue, coordination and exchange of expertise.
