Tariffs Rising, Patience Running Thin The India-US trade standoff has been brewing for months. Washington’s latest move is brutal: a 25% extra duty already slapped on Indian goods, with another 25% set to kick in on August 27. That’s a total…

New Delhi [India], August 23: It is almost as if a dream. Five years ago, TikTok was dumped out of India with the severity you save for a toxic relationship—blocked, removed, and condemned. And yet, here we are in 2025, with rumors that the app might very well be staging a quiet comeback. The website comes back online, but the app itself? Still absent. As if an ex-flame sends a “Hi” on WhatsApp but won’t commit. So, the natural question is, do we even want it back? Or is this just a case of nostalgia operating on us? When TikTok…

This one, convened by the Indian Council of Medical Research (ICMR), tried to cut through that. The plan is to align research with policy, share resources, and build systems that can stand up to future health shocks. India Takes…
