What started as foul-smelling tap water in Delhi’s Gulmohar Park has exposed a much larger problem with urban water systems. For over two weeks, residents reported sewage-contaminated water flowing through drinking water pipelines, forcing many households to rely on tankers and bottled water.
Experts told that such incidents are not isolated and have been reported in cities including Indore, Pune, Noida, Gurugram and Bengaluru. Ageing pipelines, leaks, intermittent water supply and sewage lines running close to drinking water networks create conditions where contamination can easily occur, especially when water pressure drops.
The episode highlights how gaps between engineering standards and on-ground realities continue to threaten urban water safety across India.

One island.
Forty nautical miles from the Malacca Strait.
Nearly a third of global trade passes nearby.
Great Nicobar is not just another remote island in the Andaman and Nicobar chain. It may be one of the most strategically important pieces of territory India controls.
As India expands ports, airports, and military infrastructure there, the island is becoming central to the country's economic and geopolitical ambitions.

Trump promises that the U.S. is about to make a deal with Iran. How many times has he said this?
3️⃣7️⃣

Donald Trump first mentioned a deal with Tehran on March 23, 2026, almost a month after the U.S.-Israeli war against Iran began.
On April 7, Trump announced a ceasefire, which was expected to last for two weeks while the parties negotiated a peace agreement. In fact, Washington and Tehran have not come closer to ending the conflict — they have even resumed mutual strikes while technically maintaining a ceasefire. On June 8, Trump once again announced that the United States would declare a "complete victory" over Iran within two weeks.

In a landmark #judgement aimed at improving the #legal and #social landscape for #rape survivors and pinning the hope on society that it will gradually change the victim-blaming attitude, the Jharkhand High Court, on Monday (June 08), issued a slew of directions to the state government, ranging from mandatory zero #FIR registration to the absolute prohibition of the “two-finger test”.
A bench of Chief Justice M S Sonak and Justice Rajesh Shankar was hearing a suo motu #PIL regarding the protection and rehabilitation of rape survivors.
“We are pained to observe that in certain situations, the rape victims are subjected to social ridicule as if they are the accused.
In some cases, the victims are socially ostracised, causing immense difficulty, including psychological distress to the victims and their families,” the court said on June 8.
