Victor Emmanuel III was born on November 11, 1869 , in Naples, the sole son of King Umberto I. Following a conventional military upbringing, he ascended the Italian throne unexpectedly at age 30 , on July 29, 1900, upon his father’s assassination. Though constitutionally empowered, he was a reserved and reluctant politician, often choosing to stay on the sidelines and entrust governance to the liberal statesman Giovanni Giolitti. His early reign aligned closely with Giolitti’s vision for modernization: Italy industrialized, expanded suffrage, and invested in infrastructure—railways, roads, education, and public health—while fostering civic institutions. On the international stage, Victor Emmanuel supported the Italo-Turkish War of 1911 , securing Libya as a colony. To commemorate Italy’s Quinquennial of Unification, he hastened the completion of the grand Vittoriano monument in Rome, symbolizing national resurgence. When World War I erupted, Italy initially stayed neutral before ev...

Today, I feel deeply honored to speak on a subject that touches the very soul of human progress—knowledge, wisdom, and creativity. The document before us speaks about Saraswati Puja, a celebration held with great devotion to honor Goddess Saraswati, the symbol of learning, wisdom, music, and art. But beyond ritual and tradition, this celebration carries a timeless message for every generation: that true growth begins with knowledge, and meaningful success is guided by wisdom. Saraswati Puja, also known as Vasant Panchami, is usually celebrated during the early months of the year, when nature itself begins to awaken. This timing is symbolic. Just as spring brings new life to the earth, education brings new life to the human mind. It renews our thinking, sharpens our vision, and opens doors to endless possibilities. On this day, students, teachers, artists, and scholars come together with humility, acknowledging that no matter how much we know, there is always more to learn. One of the...

The Chenab Rail Bridge, nestled in the rugged Reasi district of Jammu and Kashmir, is a breathtaking testament to modern engineering and decades-long perseverance. Envisioned as part of the ambitious Udhampur–Srinagar–Baramulla Rail Link (USBRL), its roots trace back to the laying of the project's foundation stone in 1983, though full-scale construction only gained momentum in the mid-1990s. Approved in 2003, the bridge's journey was marked by delays due to the region’s formidable terrain and the need for design recalibrations, pushing work to resume earnestly in 2010. Constructed through the concerted effort of Indian Railways’ Konkan Railway Corporation with Afcons Infrastructure, Ultra Construction, VSL India, and global design expertise, the Chenab Bridge represents a deck-arch structure composed of steel and concrete, stretching about 1,315 meters (4,314 feet) in total length. Its defining feature is a colossal steel arch spanning 467 meters (1,532 feet), the longest of ...

Good morning,  Today, I want to tell you a story — not of a superhero from the movies, but of a man who created heroes on screen, by designing the breathtaking action scenes that millions watch in awe. His name is Sham Kaushal , one of India’s most respected stunt directors and action choreographers. But his journey did not begin with fame, success, or glamour. It began in a small village in Punjab, in a simple home, with big dreams and very limited means. Sham Kaushal completed his Master's degree in English and once hoped to become a lecturer. Life, however, had other plans. Due to financial hardship, he had to give up his academic ambitions and work odd jobs to survive. Eventually, he moved to Mumbai — the city of dreams — with very little money in his pocket. He struggled to find work and often survived on meals that cost just one rupee . Imagine that — one rupee per meal. But instead of giving up, he kept going. He started working as a stuntman — a job full of risk, dan...

The Deep Meaning of Christmas: Hope, Light, and New Beginnings Christmas is more than a yearly celebration filled with lights, gifts, and traditions. At its core, Christmas is the celebration of hope entering the world. It reminds us that even in the darkest seasons, light can still be born, and even in our most difficult moments, love can still find us. This message is rooted not only in faith, but also in history, symbolism, and universal human experience. Light Born in Darkness Christmas takes place near the winter solstice, the darkest time of the year in many parts of the world. Ancient cultures viewed this season as a turning point—when the days stop getting shorter and light begins to grow again. Christian tradition builds on this symbolism by describing Jesus as the “Light of the World,” bringing spiritual clarity and hope during a time of social, political, and emotional darkness. In this sense, the birth of Jesus becomes a reminder that light always has the final word...
