Human Capital Breakthrough at the India AI Impact Summit 2026

National
New Delhi [India], January 6: On January 5 and 6, 2026, the IndiaAI Mission, the Ministry of Electronics and Information Technology, the Government of Assam and IIT Guwahati held a two-day Human Capital Working Group meeting. On paper, it appeared as yet another policy consultation. At ground level, it was a fresh start. It did not involve selling AI as a silver bullet. It was about asking embarrassing questions. Who benefits from AI? Who gets displaced? Who gets left behind when there is not enough speed, and who gets trampled when there are no guardrails? The discussions will directly contribute…

How India’s Power Distribution Sector Is Pulling Off a Turnaround

National
New Delhi [India], January 6: For decades, power distribution was the weakest link in India’s energy chain. Now, after years of bruising reforms, the numbers are finally blinking green. Power distribution sits where ambition meets reality. You can build solar parks, commission wind farms, and talk up electric mobility all day. But if distribution utilities bleed cash and leak power, the system collapses quietly. That has been India’s recurring problem. High Aggregate Technical and Commercial losses. Chronic debt. Endless bailouts. And a reputation for being reform-proof. Something has shifted. The India power distribution sector turnaround is no longer a policy…

Indian Pharmacopoeia 2026 Ends the Grey Zone Around Blood Safety

National
New Delhi [India], January 3: India has now done the prominent. Blood that is used in transfusion is now subject to the same rulebook as medicines. The blood transfusions have existed in a strange regulatory half-light for years. Everyone relied on them. Not many of them were wondering how evenly they were controlled. That uncertainty concludes with the Indian Pharmacopoeia 2026. The 10th edition of the Indian Pharmacopoeia, the drug safety and efficacy encyclopedia of the country, was released quietly in New Delhi by the Union Health and Family Welfare and Chemicals and Fertilisers Minister JP Nadda, and increases the…

DAC Clears Rs 79,000 Crore Defence Proposals in Major Capability Push

National
New Delhi [India], December 29:  When the Defence Acquisition Council cleared proposals worth nearly Rs 79,000 crore, it quietly reset the tempo of India’s military modernisation.

The approvals came during the DAC meeting on December 29, 2025. On paper, it’s a number. In reality, it’s a direction. Rs 79,000 crore is not pocket change.

AYUSH Drug Quality Regulation: 10 Bold Safeguards Implemented

National
New Delhi [India], December 29: AYUSH medicines don’t float in regulatory limbo. They operate under a dense, rule-heavy system that most critics never bother to read. Here’s what actually keeps Ayurveda, Siddha, Unani and Homoeopathy drugs in check. India’s AYUSH sector sits at an awkward crossroads. Hugely popular. Deeply traditional. Constantly questioned. What rarely gets attention is the regulatory scaffolding holding it together. It exists. It’s detailed. And it’s far from symbolic. At the centre of this system is AYUSH drug quality regulation, a framework built on testing, surveillance, certification and enforcement. Let’s break it down without the fog. PCIM&H…
