Indian researchers create a sunlight-powered photo-supercapacitor to store clean energy India has taken another powerful step toward a cleaner and smarter future. Scientists from Bengaluru have developed a new self-charging energy storage device that captures sunlight and stores power at the same time . This innovation could transform renewable energy, portable electronics, electric devices, and off-grid power systems — especially benefiting youth, startups, and rural communities. This new technology, called a photo-rechargeable supercapacitor (or photo-capacitor) , brings together solar energy collection and energy storage into a single device . Traditionally, solar systems need two separate parts — one to capture sunlight (solar panel) and another to store energy (battery). But this Indian innovation combines both functions in one compact system.This progress aligns with India’s broader innovation journey in sectors like transportation and infrastructure , where technology is reshap...

In recent years, conversations around disability in India have begun to move beyond sympathy toward something far more powerful — rights, dignity, and equal opportunity. Yet, for many young persons with disabilities (PwDs), one document continues to define access to education, employment, and social security: the disability certificate. While intended as a tool for inclusion, the process of re-verification and reassessment of disability certificates has quietly become a source of anxiety, confusion, and human rights concerns. Recognising this, India’s human rights framework has begun re-examining how verification systems should work — without harming the very people they are meant to protect. This article explores why disability certification matters,what human rights safeguards are needed, and how India’s youth can shape a more inclusive future. Disability Certificates: More Than Medical Papers A disability certificate is not simply proof of a medical condition. Under the Rights of P...

 India’s youth are no longer just spectators in national festivals—they are becoming active participants in shaping healthier communities. This shift was clearly visible at Bharat Parv–2026, where the Rural Health Training Centre (RHTC), Najafgarh emerged as a powerful example of how public health awareness, youth energy, and cultural celebration can come together to create lasting impact. Organised as part of the Republic Day celebrations from 26 to 31 January 2026 at the Red Fort Lawns and Gyan Path, Bharat Parv —under the banner of Azadi Ka Amrit Mahotsav —celebrated India’s diversity, tourism potential, and people-centric development. Amid vibrant cultural performances, state pavilions, and culinary showcases, RHTC Najafgarh stood out for one compelling reason: it brought preventive healthcare directly to the people, especially young citizens. Turning a Festival into a Health Classroom Unlike conventional health camps that rely on pamphlets and passive messaging, RHTC Najafgar...

Building a Safe, Trusted and Accountable Cyberspace Why Cybersecurity Matters to Every Young Indian Today’s youth are the most digitally active generation India has ever seen. From online classes, digital payments, social media, startups, gaming, freelancing, and e-governance platforms —almost every part of daily life runs on the internet. But as digital convenience grows, so do cyber risks. Online fraud, identity theft, phishing messages, ransomware attacks, fake apps, and AI-driven scams have become everyday threats. This is where cybersecurity moves from being a “technical topic” to a national necessity. At the centre of India’s cybersecurity ecosystem is the Indian Computer Emergency Response Team (CERT-In)—the country’s frontline cyber defence organisation under the Ministry of Electronics and Information Technology (MeitY). CERT-In does not just respond to cyberattacks; it works continuously to predict threats, protect systems, educate citizens, and build a secure digital future...

India’s ancient knowledge systems are entering a powerful new phase. What was once stored quietly in fragile palm-leaf manuscripts is now being revived through research, digitisation, and academic collaboration. In January 2026, a major initiative by the Central Council for Research in Ayurvedic Sciences (CCRAS), under the Ministry of Ayush, in partnership with Central Sanskrit University (CSU), highlighted how India is preserving Ayurvedic manuscripts while also creating meaningful opportunities for young scholars. For students, researchers, language enthusiasts, Ayurveda learners, and youth interested in heritage careers, this is more than a government project. It is proof that traditional knowledge can become a modern career path. If you have ever wondered how ancient Indian medicine can remain relevant in today’s world, this story gives a clear answer. India’s Medical Heritage Is Richer Than Many Realise Long before modern printing technology existed, knowledge in India was preserv...
