The Rising Step

PM Modi has made a major appeal to all Indians under the "Nation First" campaign to help reduce import dependence, save energy, and strengthen India's economic resilience amid global uncertainty.

PM Modi appealed to citizens to:

1.Prioritise work from home wherever possible

2. Avoid buying gold for one year

3.Reduce petrol and diesel consumption by using metro and public transport

4.Cut down the use of cooking oil

5. Reduce dependence on chemical fertilisers and move toward natural farming

6. Use fewer foreign-branded products and adopt Swadeshi

7. Avoid foreign travel for one year

The government said these measures are aimed at improving energy security, saving foreign exchange reserves, promoting sustainable lifestyles, and encouraging self-reliance under the "Nation First" vision.

India is standardising its bullet train system for future projects and is currently building about 15 km of high-speed rail track every month for the Mumbai-Ahmedabad High-Speed Rail corridor, Union Railway Minister Ashwini Vaishnaw said.

In Singapore, some drainage systems include hidden nets placed beneath the surface to catch plastic waste before it travels further. These nets sit quietly within the flow, capturing debris carried by rainwater from streets and sidewalks.

By trapping waste early, they stop it from reaching rivers, canals, and eventually larger bodies of water. This helps reduce pollution at the source, making cleanup easier and protecting aquatic environments downstream.

The system works out of sight, requiring no change in how people use the space. It's a subtle but effective solution, showing how small additions within infrastructure can play a major role in keeping waterways cleaner.

A bold move in education policy.

According to reports, China has banned businessmen from opening private schools for children aged 6 to 15-aiming to ensure that education is not treated as a profit-driven business.

A strong stance that shifts the focus back to **learning over commercialization**

The move is now sparking discussions beyond borders-especially in India, where government schools continue to face challenges.

Is this the kind of reform needed... or does it raise new questions?

The debate has just begun.
