Modi govt has achieved a historic milestone by securing the deportation of hardened narco-trafficking kingpin Navpreet Singh from Türkiye.

Obtaining Turkish citizenship under the fake identity of Navab Virk, he had continued to smuggle heroin and methamphetamine to India from Afghanistan. Our agencies tracked him down, ripping apart veil after veil to unmask his true identity, and secured his deportation. Today he has been brought back to India and put behind bars in connection with cases involving drug trafficking and other crimes he is accused of. Congratulations to all the agencies for this success.

Modi govt is committed to destroying every narco-cartel before Dec 2029.

My salute to the Indian pilot Captain Smit Machchhar for his extraordinary bravery.

Despite being stabbed and seriously injured, he fought back, resisted, opened the cockpit door, and enabled passengers and crew to overpower the attacker — preventing a catastrophic mid-air disaster.

He saved the lives of 174 people, including Israeli citizens and other nationals.

I wish Captain Machchhar a speedy and full recovery.

He is a true hero.

#WATCH | Bengaluru, Karnataka: Dr Devi Shetty, Founder and Chairman, Naryana Health says, "Every Indian, at the age of 17 must get the blood test done. This is the guideline now issued by the Cardiology Society of India because if the cholesterol level is high, they can manipulate the diet and all the men at the age of 35 to 40 should undergo a routine test along with CT scan of the heart. Anyone with the family history of heart disease must go for the checkup at the age of 30 itself, not wait for long time. All the diabetics should go for the checkup even earlier than 30 years. It is important that everyone should know their numbers. They should know what their blood pressure is, cholesterol number is, their heart numbers are. Today we find large number of young people getting into extreme sport. Even if you are very young, 17 or 18, if you are going for extreme sport, you must go for a checkup... The best way to know what the cardiac problems are to the test done. As I said, simple tests which can be done within one hour, once a year. If the CT scan is normal, for the next seven years or ten years you don't need to bother..."

[Ketan Shah @Thinkerks]

Every Indian above 30 yrs must get the HOMA-IR test done. Fasting insulin is much more important than fasting glucose-HbA1c. Diabetes doesn’t set in overnight;it gives 10-15 years of warning through high insulin. Insulin resistance is at the root of almost all metabolic issues.

[Jana V @jvembuna]

Regular blood work for sugar and cholesterol is useful, but it is still very basic. Even ECG and Echo may catch heart issues only later in the game.

At the bare minimum, please consider getting a Calcium CT Score test done.

If the score is positive, talk to your doctor about whether a 640 CT scan or further evaluation is needed.

Detecting early signs of atherosclerosis can help us take action sooner, slow down progression, and improve the situation with the right lifestyle and medication. 🙏🙏🙏

Citizens can now report illegal hawking across Mumbai through the BMC’s WhatsApp chatbot, with the civic body introducing a dedicated complaint option in compliance with directions issued by the Bombay High Court.
The new feature has been added to the BMC’s WhatsApp chatbot on the number 8999-22-8999, allowing citizens to upload the location and a live photograph of unauthorised hawking.

[Dr.Sayajirao Gaikwad @DietDrsayajirao]

Your triglycerides reveal the truth long before your sugar or HbA1c do
1) TG > 150 mg/dL
Your body is struggling to handle carbs. Liver is converting extra glucose → fat. Early insulin resistance is already brewing.

Please, please read this news thoroughly, for your own sake. I experienced chest discomfort only when I started to run at higher speeds, and it subsided when I just walked or was at rest. That's called 'stable angina' (or stress angina). Unhealthy cholesterol levels, high(er) blood pressure, diabetes are some of the causes for this - in my case, it was unhealthy cholesterol levels, long undetected, while my blood pressure, conversely, continues to be on the lower side because of my running... which my doctor confirmed as healthy since I wasn't experiencing associated fatigue. And I'm prediabetic too, as I discovered during the blood tests for my procedure.

Rana seems to have carried his 'chest discomfort' for 3 days, after which it was too late for any intervention. This is a thin line for most people because it is very easy to mistake a 'discomfort' for stomach acidity, physical symptoms like muscle strain, or even 'heartburn' (which is quite literal!). In a way, I obsess over my daily run more so for this - to include a reasonably stress-inducing activity every day (since there is none) to see if I feel completely alright with it. This helped me identify that I did experience something unusual and it needed medical intervention. And since I felt normal if I stopped the source of stress (running at a faster speed), I ignored it for about a week. But since it persisted exactly only when I stressed, I realized that I was going through something predictably unusual and that needed a check. This 'discomfort' was not a pain at all, ironically. It felt, at best, as a steady tingling sensation on my shoulders and neck - nothing close to my heart! All the more reason to ignore it. But it occurred every single time I stressed myself by increasing the speed of my run, and subsided if I just walked at a slower pace.

Understanding Your Lipid Profile: What Really Matters?
Many people get a lipid profile done every year but are unsure how to interpret the results. This thread explains LDL, triglycerides, HDL and ApoB in simple language.

If I were 25lbs overweight with a big belly & my goal was to become unrecognizable ASAP, here's everything I'd do:

1. Cut out alcohol as much as possible. It kills your sleep, recovery, fat loss, gut health, and more.

A reminder - use lists, 'notifications on' for select accounts, 'following' tab for controlling your timeline - deciding what accounts you see on your timeline.

The 'for you' is an algorithmic timeline (like in FB, Insta) and not good for regular use (okay to check it out once in a while for new recos).

‘India and China had the same per capita GDP in 1990. Today, China is 5X ahead.’

So what went wrong?

On Young Turks Reloaded, Co-founder of TeamLease and Co-author of Made In India, Manish Sabharwal delivers a blunt reality check -
‘The most embarrassing number about India? 35 years after 1991, 45% of our labour force still works on farms.’

But here’s the twist - Manufacturing alone won’t fix it. ‘We will never have 28%-45% of our workforce in factories.’

The real battleground? ‘We don’t have a shortage of land, labour or capital, we have a problem in how they combine.’

And it starts early:
📚 Nearly half of India’s children depend on government schools - where quality remains deeply inconsistent
🌏 In contrast, only 5% in Japan, 10% in the UK and 15% in the US go to private schools - because public education works

‘If anything should be free and high-quality, it is school education.’

The takeaway:
China didn’t win because of communism, it won because it unleashed entrepreneurship.
India’s path? Fix education. Unlock entrepreneurs.
