Some truly uplifting news from the Indian healthcare system!

India has achieved remarkable progress in public health:

• TB incidence dropped significantly — from 237 to 187 per lakh population between 2015 and 2024 (a 21% reduction).
• India is now surpassing global averages in reducing maternal and child mortality, marking a major public health achievement.

These improvements highlight the impact of sustained efforts in disease control, maternal care, and healthcare access across the country.

In a world full of negative news, this is a reminder of the progress happening in India. Share this to spread some positivity!

The Return of the Chola Copper Plates to India marks a major cultural restitution milestone for India. The Netherlands formally returned the 11th-century Chola-era copper plates, also known as the “Leiden Plates”, during Prime Minister Narendra Modi’s visit to the country in May 2026.

These copper plates date back to the reign of Rajaraja Chola I (985–1014 CE) and are considered among the most important surviving records of the Chola Empire. The collection contains 21 copper plates weighing around 30 kg, bound by a bronze ring carrying the royal Chola seal. The inscriptions are written in both Sanskrit and Tamil.

The plates were reportedly taken to the Netherlands in the 18th century by Dutch missionary and scholar Florentius Camper during the period when Nagapattinam was under Dutch control. They later became part of the collection at Leiden University. India had been seeking their return since 2012.

Prime Minister Modi called the return “a joyous moment for every Indian,” highlighting the broader effort to bring back culturally significant artefacts removed during colonial times.

This is right beside shops and public roads. Imagine the smell, the mosquitoes, and the health risks for people living nearby. Cleanliness shouldn’t be optional. What’s causing this mess — poor management, lack of collection, or public negligence?

The Battle of Longewala saw Pakistan launch a massive nighttime blitz into the Indian desert with over 3,000 troops, 40+ Chinese-made Type 59 tanks, and hundreds of armored vehicles. Facing them were only 120 Indian soldiers with 2 RCL jeeps and 10 camels. Surprised by the night attack, the Indian troops were given the option to withdraw, but they refused and chose to fight. They held the post through the night with heavy resistance, waiting for the Indian Air Force, which lacked night-strike capability at the time. At dawn, Hawker Hunter jets unleashed devastating attacks on the Pakistani armored column, destroying or forcing the abandonment of over 36 out of 40 tanks, hundreds of vehicles, and killing around 300 Pakistani soldiers. India lost only 2 soldiers, 1 RCL Jeep and 5 camels in the battle.

Heartbreaking Stats 💔💔
