New Delhi [India], April 03: The 61st session of the United Nations Human Rights Council (UNHRC), held in Geneva from 23 February to 31 March 2026, took place against a backdrop of escalating global tensions, ongoing armed conflicts, and widening inequalities that continue to strain the international human rights framework. The session brought together representatives from over 100 countries, multilateral organizations, and civil society actors to deliberate on emerging and persistent human rights challenges.
This session was marked by a strong emphasis on the intersectionality of human rights with contemporary global issues. Key thematic priorities included disability rights, children’s rights, minority protection and the integration of human rights into peacebuilding and sustainable development frameworks. Discussions also explored the implications of digital technologies, particularly in safeguarding rights and addressing harmful practices, alongside deliberations on financing sustainable development aligned with economic, social, and cultural rights. Environmental human rights emerged as a central pillar, with growing recognition of the right to a clean, healthy, and sustainable environment. Dialogues underlined the need for stronger governance mechanisms, climate action, and community-led conservation approaches. Simultaneously, the session reflected broader geopolitical concerns, including democratic backsliding, shrinking civic space, and the challenges to international law in a fragmented global order.
Integrated interventions Within this evolving global context, the India Water Foundation (IWF) was given the opportunity to represent its perspectives across five thematic interventions, reflecting a coherent and interwoven approach to rights-based governance. Articulating this perspective, Dr. Arvind Kumar, President, India Water Foundation, brought attention to the evolving dimensions of rights in the digital era, emphasizing privacy as a fundamental right and highlighting India’s legislative progress through the Digital Personal Data Protection Act. He underscored the importance of accountability, lawful data processing, and institutional oversight in building a trusted digital ecosystem that balances innovation and economic growth with the protection of individual dignity.
Dr. Kumar further situated these perspectives within the broader framework of inclusion and equity, addressing minority issues through a multi-dimensional lens rooted in constitutional guarantees of equality, non-discrimination, and cultural freedom. By emphasizing targeted interventions in education, skill development, and financial inclusion, he reinforced the importance of addressing structural inequalities while promoting social cohesion and participatory governance. Across these contributions, a consistent narrative emerged one that recognizes human rights as an interconnected ecosystem where democratic participation, environmental stewardship, cultural continuity, digital accountability, and social justice are mutually reinforcing rather than discrete domains.
Complementing this, Ms. Shweta Tyagi, Chief Functionary, India Water Foundation, emphasized the importance of inclusive democratic participation, particularly for persons with disabilities, situating accessibility and dignity as essential to political rights. Drawing on India’s legislative framework under the Rights of Persons with Disabilities Act, 2016, she highlighted how measures such as accessible voter registration, Braille-enabled voting systems, and home voting provisions exemplify efforts to operationalize equality within democratic processes. This focus on inclusion extended seamlessly into her articulation of cultural and environmental rights, where she underscored the intrinsic link between nature and cultural identity, reflected in traditional knowledge systems, sacred landscapes, and community-led conservation practices supported by the Forest Rights Act and global commitments under the Convention on Biological Diversity.
Reinforcing the interconnectedness of these themes, Ms. Tyagi further highlighted environmental governance as integral to the realization of fundamental rights, particularly in the context of clean air and public health. She pointed to India’s science-based and multi-pronged approach to addressing air pollution through initiatives such as the National Clean Air Programme, alongside the expansion of renewable energy and cleaner technologies, demonstrating how environmental sustainability, economic development, and social well-being must advance in tandem.
Conclusion With the overarching direction of the UNHRC, particularly at a time when the global human rights framework is under visible strain due to ongoing conflicts, geopolitical fragmentation, and weakening multilateral consensus, the session underscored the urgency for constructive and solution-oriented engagement. In this challenging context, India Water Foundation effectively represented India’s continued commitment to inclusive, rights-based, and sustainable development approaches, bringing forward national experiences as part of a broader global dialogue. Its interventions reinforced the importance of balancing development with human dignity, environmental stewardship, and digital accountability, thereby contributing to a more integrated and forward-looking discourse.

New Delhi [India], April 03: The India & International Cake Magazine Awards (IICMA) has announced its second edition, scheduled to take place on April 11 at Bel-La Monde Hotel, NH8, New Delhi. The platform will bring together leading cake artists, international judges, and industry professionals from across India and around the world, continuing its position as India’s first global cake awards initiative that places home bakers, independent creators, and internationally recognised artists on a shared stage.
Conceptualised by internationally acclaimed cake artist Tina Scott Parashar, IICMA was launched in 2025 with the objective of bridging the gap between Indian talent and global industry standards. The inaugural edition set a strong benchmark in terms of scale, participation, and credibility, with a structured format that prioritised fairness, transparency, and merit-based recognition.
Over time, the platform has evolved into an important space for a rapidly expanding community of home bakers, small businesses, and professional cake artists who often operate without access to larger industry networks. By combining international exposure with a credible evaluation process, IICMA enables participants to showcase their work alongside global peers while building visibility and professional opportunities.
The 2026 edition will feature a wide range of categories across cake artistry, wedding cakes, sugar art, and emerging segments within the industry. The event will bring together a distinguished panel of international guests and expert judges, including David Close (UK), Kelly Jane (UK), Alena Ujshag (Ukraine), Mariya Ozturk (Turkey), Lucie Charvatova (Czech Republic), Edna and Vanik of Enamor Cake (Armenia/Iran) and Larysa Rybchuk (Ukraine). Designed as a large-format live experience, the awards aim to create a strong visual and community-led environment, bringing together participants, judges, and industry stakeholders.
Speaking about the upcoming edition, Tina Scott Parashar, Founder and Editor of India & International Cake Magazine, said, “IICMA was created with a clear vision to build a platform in India that reflects global industry standards while remaining accessible to artists at every level. There is a large and talented community of bakers and cake artists in India, many of whom run independent or home-based businesses. What they often lack is visibility and access, and this platform is designed to address that.”
The India & International Cake Magazine Awards continues to position itself as a credible and inclusive platform that recognises excellence based on merit while strengthening connections between Indian and international cake artists.
India & International Cake Magazine is a global platform dedicated to showcasing cake artists and edible art from India and around the world. Through its growing community and initiatives, it aims to promote talent, encourage skill development, and build meaningful connections within the global cake industry.
New Delhi [India], April 02: Sarkar Palmistry is No.1 Palmist in Mumbai and one of India’s most trusted palmistry experts. Today, more than 437k people across YouTube, Facebook and Instagram follow him. Thousands regularly seek his guidance for their life decisions, marriage or finance related queries. His journey to become a Palmist was bit unconventional. His journey started when he was just a 20 year old boy living a simple life in Mumbai. But one day, his neighbour made a strange prediction. That neighbour knew the art of palmistry. He predicted that before turning 20.5, blood would come out of his body. It can be either due to an accident or an operation. For six months, he lived with fear but stayed careful. One night, he was switching on the old black push-button light. An electric shock hit him, and he fell on a heavy iron cot. Six stitches marked his face. The boy had to rush back to Mumbai. That incident planted a strong question in his mind. The question was, “Can I learn this science?”
His neighbour refused to teach him, no matter how much he requested. Three years later, he realised he needed true basics. Those were the days when local railway stations had book stalls. Palmistry books were easy to find on those stalls. He bought books by well-known writers like Cheiro. He started studying by himself. But when he tried reading palms, nothing matched. He could understand nature of people. But major events never came right. Meanwhile, the neighbour shifted to a new house and disappeared. That emptiness pushed him harder to decide that he must learn palmistry properly.
He started doing his own research. Books spoke a lot about “money triangles.” But when he was having practical knowledge even many poor people had them. So he began observing wealthy people in his family friends and community elders. He discovered something common in all wealthy people’s hand. On their Sun Mount, he noticed a fish-like sign again and again. That became his clue. He then wanted to understand poverty. So, he met people outside temples. He listened to their stories, and studied their palms. He noticed two types of hands. Those with wheat-coloured hands always found shelter at night. While those with greyish palms often slept on the road. Slowly, he connected habits, past struggles, and palm patterns. This became his real foundation.
During this learning phase, he also worked in his family business. Once he had severe back pain. The doctor ordered ten days of rest. This forced pause changed everything. For seven days straight, YouTube kept showing him palmistry videos. But he felt that most creators only repeated book knowledge. Very few had real experience. This made him think another question. Now the question was, “Should I try making my own channel?” His son helped him set it up. The name “Sarkar Palmistry” came from his love for Amitabh Bachchan’s film Sarkar. He did not even know Bengal had a rich palmistry tradition. He recorded his first videos with a simple screen-recording app someone suggested. And slowly, people started watching.
Viewers began sending their palm photos through email. He wrote long responses for free. This took a lot of time. His family complained about wastage of time and efforts. So, one day in frustration he asked one person for his consulting fees. To his surprise, the person paid the asked money immediately. Soon, he slowed down his old business. He focused fully on palmistry which was his real passion. Today, he reads palms with accuracy about age-wise problems. He can tell growth times, financial rise, even turnover possibilities accurately. According to him, only 5% is human effort and 95% is divine guidance. He often shares about the various clients he has helped on social media.
Once, he read the palm of a Chief Minister who had previously lost his seat. After examining his palm lines, he predicted that the person would become Chief Minister again and also mentioned the specific time period. Within a span of six months of that period, he indeed became a minister again. Another minister came to him regarding financial matters. The person was not a big leader but only a local one at that time. After reading his palm, he predicted that he would become an MP, and that also came true. When he was informed of this prediction, the person laughed and said that he could believe becoming an MLA, but becoming an MP was too big to believe. However, within six months, he directly became an MP.
Another client was a businessman whose fate, according to his palm, was to improve after the age of 36. He also observed that the man’s wife had a Rajyog sign, and the husband was benefiting from his wife’s luck as shown in the palm lines. Another client, who was the CEO of a well-known company, had a brown mark on his hand and a triangle at the Saturn mount. From this, he understood and asked the person whether he was interested in black magic. The person accepted that although he had never practiced it on anyone, he was interested in learning it and was actually studying it.
His belief is simple that every challenge and every rise is written on our hands. And that belief helped him build the name that thousands now know as Sarkar Palmistry.

New Delhi [India], April 02: The latest episode of MK Talks, hosted by Mohsin Khan, is making headlines for one bold and controversial statement by Ekta Kapoor — “new stars are depressed.” The remark, delivered candidly during the conversation, sets the tone for an episode that challenges the popular perception of today’s entertainment industry.
Ekta Kapoor pointed to a major cultural shift behind this claim. According to her, the new generation of actors has moved away from the once-vibrant social life of Bollywood. With fewer parties, almost no alcohol culture, and an intense focus on fitness, discipline, and yoga, she suggested that young stars are living more restricted and isolated lives — which may be contributing to emotional pressure and burnout.
Mohsin Khan, steering the conversation, briefly touched upon her iconic Kyunki Saas Bhi Kabhi Bahu Thi, where Ekta reflected on how success earlier came with shared celebration, unlike today’s quieter, more internalized journeys.
While the episode also covers her instinct for talent, evolving storytelling, and quick insights into projects like The Dirty Picture and Bhoot Bangla, the core takeaway remains her unfiltered observation about the mental and emotional state of new-age stars.
Honest and reflective, this episode of MK Talks shifts the focus from glamour to the quiet intensity shaping the lives of today’s stars.
