  As Maha Kumbh draws to a close after Wednesday’s Maha Shivratri snan with the grand farewell taking place at Kashi Vishwanath temple, the makeshift settlements along Triveni Sangam will be dismantled and the ancient city will also return to their everyday rhythm. The unprecedented event has witnessed it all: a spiritual confluence of over 60 crore people, stampedes that killed dozens, CPCB voicing concerns of water pollution, and to add to all the drama, the fairy tale story of "Maha kumbh ki Mona Lisa" Monalisa Bhosle, the garland vendor who turned into a national beauty icon overnight.

What would a federal election be like without the ABC's chief pundit and number crunch Anthony Green calling the numbers? Well we'll soon find out because this year's Federal election will be the last time Green will be on our screens in an on-air role as he moves to a less strenuous position behind the scenes.  Green has been in the role for more than 30 years and now in his 60s he believes the time is right. "By the time of the next election, I'll be 68 and I know I'm not as sharp and quick as I was five years ago," Green said today - Wednesday. "It gets harder and harder. It's like a footballer, sometimes they play on a season too long, and I'm making sure I don't do that." He will remain with the ABC in a behind-the-scenes role and continue to work on election-related projects. Green has become a household name in Australia, ensuring the ABC's election night broadcasts attract millions of viewers. He has an ability to explain numbers in a way that anyone can understa

As a 10-year-old, WhistleOut Singapore’s now Managing Editor Georgia Dixon was so keen on tech she would excitedly read about events like the annual Consumer Electronics Show (CES) and dream one day she’d be able to visit.  Of course the dream has now become reality and as Dixon told Influencing, attending CES - she’s been twice so far - was “full circle and very surreal”. “The first time attending was just insane. It's a whole other kettle of fish to be thrown into it. There's nothing you can do that will prepare you for the event because its sheer scale is insane.  “Since I’ve been at the WhistleOut group, I think going to CES is the coolest thing I've ever been able to do. It was a real pinch-me moment.” Interest in tech has been with Dixon for as long as she can remember and even from a young age she saw reporting on tech as her dream.   “From a young age, I was obsessed with technology, gadgets, and everything else on the dial-up internet, reading ab

A desperate rescue operation is underway in Telangana after eight workers were trapped inside the Silasagar Lift Irrigation Scheme (SLBC) tunnel collapse. What began as a routine construction shift quickly turned into a nightmare when a section of the tunnel caved in, leading to a surge of silt and water on Feb 22, 2025. While 52 workers managed to escape, eight more were trapped deeper inside the tunnel and could not find a safe exit before a portion of the roof caved in. Hot Off the Press According to The Hindu’s Ravi Reddy and B Chandrashekhar, the trapped workers have been cut off since the seepage intensified, with uncertainty growing by the hour regarding their survival. Despite rescue teams working round the clock, increasing silt accumulation and relentless water seepage have brought operations to a standstill. The Times of India’s Koride Mahesh reported that the water levels have risen to a critical point, making visibility nearly impossible and halting drilling eff
