Not just keeps us going but also encourages us to tread the hard path. Of remaining grounded, factual, shorn of rhetoric while keeping the India story—chaotic, energetic, sometimes silly but always interesting—at front and centre of our coverage! Thank everyone so very much. To climb this peak organically is my team’s biggest achievement

The Nazis weren’t history’s only monsters.

Japan’s Unit 731 froze prisoners alive, dissected children without anesthesia, and unleashed plague bombs.

At the center was Shirō Ishii, a man more monstrous than history dares to remember.

Here’s the horror they tried to erase:

“Even the most beautiful of days eventually have their sunsets”.

Whilst not yet officially retired, Saina Nehwal has been struggling with arthritis and hasn’t played a competitive match for over 18 months now. It therefore seems unlikely she will be able to make a comeback to extend her outstanding career. But Saina (which means shining) will leave a remarkable legacy.

Like Billie Jean King, the former tennis player and winner of a staggering 39 Grand Slam titles, who probably did more to enhance and promote women’s sport globally than any other athlete in history, Saina made such an impact that she, along with a handful of other female athletes including Karnam Malleswari (weightlifting) and Mary Kom (boxing) helped change perceptions of women’s sport in India.

Saina not only created interest and inspired mass participation of badminton within her home country, her results made others also believe success was possible, and not just for female players. H S Prannoy credited her mindset for a change in all Indian players when facing tougher opponents.

And what a mindset Saina had. That never say die attitude, the absolute refusal to give up on a rally. Happy to admit she wasn’t the most talented player, Saina built her game on hard work and mental toughness. Attributes which took her to world number 1, Olympic Bronze, 2 world championship medals, and 2 Commonwealth Games Gold medals.

Of course, there had been highly successful players before Saina, such as Prakash and Gopichand, but she was the player who inspired a badminton revolution in her home country. Now India has 12 men’s, and 14 women’s singles players ranked in the top 100 in the world – more than any other country.

Saina may not be an active player anymore, but with the #BWFWorldTour moving on to the #IndiaOpen next week, it’s only appropriate that her contribution and influence on Indian #badminton is recognised. Saina’s success stimulated a change in attitudes, a belief that success was possible for other Indian players … across all disciplines.

The sun may have set on the beautiful “day” of Saina Nehwal, but the legacy is without doubt still shining brightly.

Hitler's "unsinkable" battleship terrified the Allies.

33 failed attempts. Thousands of lives lost.

Then, on a freezing morning in 1944, the Dambusters took off for one final mission.

Here’s how they sank the Tirpitz—and changed history forever:

As we wait for the Modi-Xi meeting later this afternoon in Kazan, it is time to put the effort towards rebuilding trust between India and China in perspective and the inevitable long road that lies ahead. Let’s begin with the announcement on Monday about disengagement on the LAC

India is going to support Pakistan in becoming a part of BRICS

But why would India suddenly change its mind after rejecting Pakistan for 18 yrs?

The Crazy Part? The badly debt ridden Pakistan will become BRICS’s worst liability

Elon Musk was trying to enter India with his satellite internet — Starlink

But Mukesh Ambani tried his best to stop Elon from entering

The Crazy Part? Govt has now sided with Elon, letting him operate in India

On paper, a round-of-16 exit is nothing to celebrate. But when you consider the odds @PRANNOYHSPRI overcame just to be in #Paris2024 – chikungunya, viral fever – it says everything about the kind of athlete he is
