 Spiritual leader and Isha Foundation founder Sadhguru Jaggi Vasudev recently opened up about the shocking incident that led to his second brain surgery in March 2024. In a personal video shared on Instagram titled  ‘Sadhguru’s Second Brain Surgery – Undisclosed Details’ , the 67-year-old described how a seemingly minor accident became life-threatening. He recounted an incident involving a monkey while he was swimming with his daughter. A monkey approached their house, trying to enter for fruit. His daughter shouted to scare it away, but the monkey charged at her. Instinctively trying to protect her, Sadhguru rushed inside to grab a stick but accidentally slammed his head into a closed glass door at full speed.

Goel Medicos owner Basant Goel provides educational grants to underprivileged students


 

New Delhi, 27th September 2021: Devastated by the traumatic Kedarnath flooding in 2013, Basant Goel, the owner of Goel Medicos, started the novel endeavor of financing the education of unprivileged students who had lost their parents or elders of the family.  

 

 Considering that apart from the education fees there are miscellaneous auxiliary expenses like mess fees, books expenses, transportation, etc. that need to be taken care of, Basant Goel provides funds on a yearly basis that looks after the additional costs of the students.  

 

 Till date, the pharmacist has helped over 150 – 200 students. He has collaborated with Swami Dayanand Hospital to finance the education of nursing students. At the school level, many students have fetched fruitful results and successfully cleared medical and engineering exams. 

 

 On the occasion, Basant Goel said, “Witnessing the lethal impact of Kedarnath flooding, I realized that there were many children who survived their families and were left to live alone. Considering that they had no source of income, I decided to offer whatever little was in my hand to secure the future of even one child. But by God’s grace, I was able to serve a generous number of students over the time.”

 

Started with the aim to help the Kedarnath flood victims, with time Basant Goel channelized the endeavor into an integrated philanthropic work where all the needy students are provided extra financial help to meet the educational expenses. 

 

 Currently, the entire endeavor is functional in the Delhi NCR region but with time Basant Goel aspires to reach the novel deed throughout the country.

India Resists US Push to Permanently Scrap Digital Tax in Trade Deal Talks

Image
 Amid ongoing India–US trade discussions, India's Commerce Ministry has opposed a clause proposed by the United States that would prevent India from reintroducing digital taxes like the equalisation levy in the future. This development comes as India attempts to ease US concerns over high tariffs and show willingness to cooperate on trade reforms. In March 2025, the Indian government had suggested removing the equalisation levy on digital ads as part of the Finance Bill amendments. However, legal advisers to the Commerce Ministry now advise negotiators not to accept the US's current demand, as it imposes an obligation only on India. According to insiders, the US proposal lacked mutuality—it asked India to commit to not applying digital service taxes but made no such commitment from the American side. This was perceived as a "unilateral obligation" rather than a balanced agreement. India is cautious, especially since any legal commitment could limit its future policy o...
