Bandhan Yatra began with such a problem. Behind the emerging destination-wedding marketplace are Prabhakar Kumar and Garima Das, a husband-and-wife team and Computer Science Engineers whose professional journey has taken them from corporate technology and established brands to digital marketing, entrepreneurship and eventually the hospitality industry.

New Delhi [India], August 18: You can reduce delays in your car insurance claim by reporting the incident promptly, preserving evidence, submitting complete documents, and following the insurer’s process carefully. Clear communication from the beginning helps prevent repeated queries and avoidable gaps. A claim may slow down when information is missing, repairs begin before inspection, or documents contain conflicting details. The aim is not to rush assessment but to make every step easier to verify. Report the Incident without Unnecessary Delay Early intimation allows the insurer to record the event and explain the next steps. Use an approved contact channel and share the facts clearly. State when and where the incident occurred, how the vehicle was affected, and whether anoth...

New Delhi [India], August 17: A gently unhinged love letter to soft baby clothes, small humans, and the Indian brand quietly winning the war. No one prepares you for the laundry. You are handed a baby, a tiny, gurgling, astonishingly leaky human, and somewhere in the fine print, they forget to mention that this creature will burn through outfits at the pace of a Formula 1 pit crew. Breakfast happens. An “incident” happens. A mysterious second incident happens before you have even located the wet wipes. By 9 a.m., you have done three costume changes, and your child has, frankly, outperformed most film stars. So, you go looking. You type the very sensible things every parent eventually types into their phone at midnight: cutest baby clothes in India. Softest baby clothes in In...

New Delhi [India], August 14: Alcohol-related claims may be excluded when drinking contributes to an illness, injury, accident, loss or unlawful act during an overseas trip. Travellers should therefore read the intoxication clause before departure and understand how it may affect different sections of a travel policy during a foreign journey. The presence of travel insurance does not mean every incident will qualify. Claim decisions usually depend on the policy wording, medical records, official reports and the circumstances surrounding the event. What an Alcohol-Related Exclusion Means An alcohol-related exclusion sets out when a policy may not respond to a loss connected with drinking or intoxication. The wording can vary, so assumptions based on another policy may be misleading...

Dev Punj, Vice President, Chimes Aviation Academy (CAA) Gurugram (Haryana) [India], August 14: Ask a room full of parents in India what they want their child to become, and you’ll hear ‘doctor’, ‘engineer’, or ‘maybe a civil servant’. Somewhere down the list, if it comes up at all, someone will mention pilot – usually followed by a comment about how expensive it is or how it’s “an uncertain path” or “whether it is a practical career at all”. Nobody says that about medicine, even though medicine is expensive too. Nobody says it about engineering. That gap is worth sitting with, because it isn’t really about money. It’s about how we talk about the professions themselves. Three professions, one kind of training; treated very differently Medicine and engineering share a public imag...
