In India, the union budget isn’t followed only by policy watchers. It’s followed by people who want to understand the year ahead in simple terms—what might change for taxes, what might affect prices, and what direction the government seems to be taking. With budget 2026 close, the usual curiosity is already there: the date, the […]

Maha Shivratri is not a “party” kind of festival. It’s more like a quiet night people save for Shiva. The day usually doesn’t look very different from outside, but inside the house, you can feel the shift. Someone wipes the puja corner while the tea is still hot.
