Yesterday’s Air India tragedy in Ahmedabad, where 241 lives were lost within moments of takeoff, has left the nation grieving. The news brought a wave of shock and sorrow. For some, it also stirred the memory of another flight, another heartbreak, from a time long past. In

How I wish South Africa hold their nerve today. They've choked before—umpteen times—but this should be their day. Just 69 runs to get, 8 wickets in hand, and a beautiful pitch to bat on. No nerves now, please. #SAvsAUS #CricketTwitter ICC Cricket World Cup

South Africa are world champions! A nerve-wracking Day 4, a few stumbles on the way. But they held on, fought through, and finally crossed the line. The last over comedy of error! What a moment! #WorldChampions #SAvsAUS

Why I Remember Dr. Sandeep Kumar Dey Today Last Thursday, a plane crashed in Ahmedabad. In just a moment, 274 lives were lost: passangers, crew and people living nearby. As I watched the news on my screen, something moved deep inside me. An old wound I thought had healed began

Big Pharma funds the trial, pays the investigators, monitors the data, ghostwrites the manuscript, and edits it to perfection. Then it declares: “The funders had no role in study design, data collection, analysis, interpretation, or publication.” Isn’t this plain business

My heart goes out to Karun Nair Karun Nair. After waiting eight long years for a Test comeback, he was dismissed for a duck on the fourth ball. But I remain hopeful. He has the talent and grit to bounce back. I am sure he would prove his mettle in the inning to follow. #Cricket

Dilip Doshi is no more. He made his Test debut after 32, yet in just four short years, he claimed over 100 wickets. What a guile and flight. In his 1979 debut, he took six against the mighty Aussies. The left-arm spinner with spectacles is now a memory; but what a memory he

Heart attack ≠ heart failure ≠ cardiac arrest. Yet news reports often use these terms interchangeably, especially when a celebrity dies. The truth: everyone dies of cardiac arrest. It just means the heart stopped. It's time media used these terms accurately and responsibly.

Many cancer treatments show promising scans. The tumour shrinks. The numbers look better. But overall survival doesn’t improve. Looking better. Getting worse. That’s the quiet paradox we must talk about more. #CancerResearch

India Today’s 2025 rankings of top medical colleges are out. As expected, AIIMS dominates the list. AIIMS Delhi, Jodhpur, Bhopal, Bhubaneswar, Rishikesh, Patna, Raipur feature prominently in the top 25. But here’s the jaw-dropping part: MBBS fee at AIIMS: ₹1,628 for the entire

Do top newspapers and magazines solicit ads from colleges they rank among the best in medicine, engineering, law, commerce, or arts? And if they do, why don’t they disclose this conflict of interest when they publish and hype these rankings? #MediaRankingsScam IndiaToday

In 2025, AIIMS Delhi had a ₹5200 crore budget. MGIMS Sevagram ran on ₹240 crore (20x less) with 100 MBBS seats, 1000 beds, 7L OPDs & 50K admissions. It didn’t make the top 25. Not for lack of quality, but because it didn’t apply. Can Delhi's elite be compared to a village on a

Today in The Lancet: Once-weekly insulin efsitora goes head-to-head with daily glargine U100 in a phase 3 RCT (n=730). -Non-inferior HbA1c reduction - Similar safety & hypoglycaemia rates Effective. Safe. Time to rethink the daily jab? But what will it cost Indian patients?

As Surjit Bhalla and Ankur Choudhary might ask: Is Edgbaston a batting paradise or a bowling graveyard? A nightmare for batters or a dream for bowlers? Six ducks and Two big hundreds in a single inning! Unbeliebable! #IndiavsEngTest

Congratulations, India, on the fantastic win! The way our batsmen and bowlers dominated the English was truly satisfying! #IndiavsEngland #Cricket

This victory has also raised an uncomfortable question: whom will Bumrah replace when he returns for the next Test? Siraj, Akash Deep, or Prasidh? Or will he take a back seat and let these youngsters unleash themselves at Lord's? #IndiavsEngland
