Air pollution in India biggest health crisis since Covid, warn doctors

Air pollution is arguably the biggest public health crisis India has faced since the pandemic and will continue to worsen each year unless urgent action is taken, a UK-based Indian-origin pulmonologist warned, noting that a looming tsunami of airway disease remains largely underdiagnosed and untreated. Speaking to PTI, multiple senior doctors practising in the UK asserted that a vast, hidden burden of undiagnosed airway disease is "building beneath the surface" and its incoming wave will exact a heavy, lasting toll on Indian citizens and its healthcare system. They linked the global rise in cardiovascular diseases over the past decade to increasing exposure to toxic emissions from urban transport, including automobiles and aircraft, particularly in cities across India, the UK and beyond, rather than obesity alone. Union transport minister Nitin Gadkari on Tuesday admitted that nearly 40 per cent of the pollution in Delhi is caused by the transport sector due to dependence on fossil

Samsung rules out India IPO, bets on AI, consumer finance for growth

Samsung Electronics has ruled out listing of its India business for now, saying it will instead focus on accelerating artificial intelligence adoption across its products and expanding its consumer finance arm to drive sales in one of the most important growth markets. In an interview with PTI, JB Park, President and CEO of Samsung Southwest Asia, said the South Korean giant is looking to deepen its manufacturing footprint in India and has applied under the production-linked incentive (PLI) scheme for components to manufacture mobile phone displays in India. Samsung runs its largest smartphone manufacturing facility in the world in Noida, which has evolved into a key export hub in recent years. When asked about any possibility of IPO, Park said: "No, we do not have any such plans as of now". While other South Korean peers like Hyundai Motor India and LG Electronics have tapped public markets to raise capital and strengthen their local footprint, Samsung places a preference on inter

PM announces ₹2 lakh ex-gratia for kin of deceased after 9 killed in K'taka

At least nine persons were killed when a speeding truck crashed against a luxury sleeper bus, which caught fire under the impact, in this district early on Thursday, a senior police official said. The bus with 32 passengers which was its way to Gokarna was engulfted in flames under the impact of the collision and most of the deceased were burnt alive inside the vehicle, East Zone Inspector General of Police Ravikanthe Gowda said. The accident happened after the truck jumped a road-divider and collided with the oncoming bus, Gowda told reporters. The bus driver and cleaner escaped. The driver of the truck and its cleaner are among the dead. The injured passengers have been shifted to a hospital in Shira in Tumakuru district, he added. Many passengers escaped by jumping from the bus, Gowda said. Another bus from T Dasrahalli to Dandeli with 45 school children that was behind the fateful bus just escaped the accident.

Adani Group seals ₹80,000 cr in deals since 2023 short-seller crisis

Adani Group has completed as many as 33 acquisitions worth about Rs 80,000 crore (USD 9.6 billion) across its businesses since January 2023, signalling sustained access to capital and steady execution following the short-seller allegations that jolted markets nearly three years ago. The buying spree has been concentrated in the conglomerate's core sectors, according to market data and company sources. Ports led with acquisitions of around Rs 28,145 crore, followed by cement at Rs 24,710 crore and power at Rs 12,251 crore. Newer, incubating businesses accounted for Rs 3,927 crore, while transmission and distribution added Rs 2,544 crore of deals, they said. The list does not include the Rs 13,500 crore planned acquisition of debt-laden Japyee Group in bankruptcy proceedings. That transaction is yet to conclude. A few transactions in works too are not in the list. The acquisitions come as Adani works to rebuild investor confidence after now shuttered US-based short seller Hindenburg
