Billionaire Nirmal Sethia doesn't read books, so why is he funding a Agatha Christie exhibition?
Agatha Christie wrote a great many mystery novels in her time but probably none as baffling as The Strange Case of the Indian Entrepreneur . Eastern Eye asked Nirmal Sethia: Have you read any of Agatha Christies novels? His reply was typical of the billionaire who ranked 4th in Eastern Eye s Asian Rich List 2026 with a net value of 6.8 billion: Im not educated, Im matric fail. And yet he is sponsoring the British Librarys exhibition, Agatha Christie: A World of Mystery , to mark 50 years since the authors death on 12 January 1976 at the age of 85. As the director of numerous companies, Sethia described his main interests in the following manner in 2017: We are involved in security printing, sugar refining, banking I am on the board of a bank in Dubai we are involved in small power generation, in real estate, but 50 per cent of my time goes on tea because I love my tea. The clue is the word, tea. Agatha Christie boarding the EET Salon at lunchtime on the train from Bulawayo to the Cape. In 1922 Agatha Christie set sail on a 10-month voyage around the world. Her husband Archie had been invited to join a trade mission to promote the British Empire Exhibition and Agatha was determined to go with him The Christie Archive Trust The British Library has announced that the Agatha Christie exhibition is taking place, with thanks to Newby Teas. And Sethia is the man behind Newby Teas, which is a luxury brand. Tea figures frequently in Christies novels, and the Queen of Crime herself loved her tea, probably the strong brands from Assam. Her famous creation, Miss (Jane) Marple, was also fond of tea. However, her Belgian detective, Hercule Poirot, preferred hot chocolate and syrups. Newby Teas, Sethia confirmed in an interview with Eastern Eye , is owed by his family charities its owned 45 per cent by the N Sethia Foundation, and 55 per cent by N Sethia Trust. According to the British Library, Newby is a London-based luxury tea brand sourcing exceptional teas from the worlds finest regions. Packed in its carbon-neutral factory, profits support charitable causes through the N Sethia Foundation. Newby is served by prestigious hospitality destinations worldwide. Agatha Christie under a tree on Honolulu beach after surfing, 1922. Agatha and her husband Archie were permitted to take a short holiday away from the 1922 trade mission and chose Honolulu where they learnt how to surf on longboards. Here Agatha purchased a surf suit in the local style, better suited to the demands of surfing than her swim attire for bathing in Torquay. The Christie Archive Trust The tea is carefully packed at a plant in Calcutta (now Kolkata) so that it retains its distinctive flavour. Sethia gets very cross with people who put milk into their tea. Although Sethia claims he does not read any books, his charity makes a point of supporting education in the widest sense. Christies books, he said, are literature. Its part of education. Literature is imagination, and that capability can only come when wisdom is invoked. There is a mission to allow people to understand the fantasy of literature and the capability of writing. For his support for books, Sethia said that has been bestowed honorary life membership of the Friends of the National Libraries. This is a registered charity founded in 1931 that supports the British Library, the National Library of Scotland and the National Library of Wales and other libraries in the UK recognised as being of national importance. Its chief patron is King Charles, who took on the position in 2016 when he was still the Prince of Wales. Agatha Christie relaxing during a sightseeing tour, Tajoura, Libya, 1955. Agatha and her second husband, archaeologist Max Mallowan had invited Agatha's daughter Rosalind and grandson Mathew to join them on a tour of the ancient sites of Leptis Magna and Sabratah during December 1955. The Christie Archive Trust I couldnt refuse, said Sethia. The honour came from His majesty. Sethia has also been named ambassador of peace by the UN because of $50m sent to Africa by his charity to tackle cholera and other childrens diseases. He has also built two Tirupathi temples in India in Delhi and in Kurukshetra, respectively. Sethia, who was born in Calcutta on November 8, 1941, took over part of the family empire when his father, Sohan Lalji Sethia, died in 1967. His father was born on 5 September 1913 in Sujangargh, Rajasthan; graduated from Presidency College Calcutta, one of the foremost institutions of higher education in India; and had a very successful business career in the jute industry. His entrepreneurial vision and innovation won him international recognition in the business community. His son first came to London as a boy (my pay was 7 shillings a week), returned to Calcutta at 16, and then came back to London in 1966. He was deeply affected by the death of his wife, Chitra, in London, in 2010, after 41 years of marriage. Much of his charitable work is in her memory. Kenneth Branagh as Hercule Poirot in Murder on the Orient Express, 2017 20th Century Studios Sethia is the founder of the N Sethia Foundation, while his daughter Richa is a trustee. The mystery of how he came to support the Christie exhibition was further unravelled by Aneta Aslakhanova, the global marketing director of Newby Teas. She said both the British Library and Newby Teas are both members of Walpole, the organisation that represents British luxury brands. They approached us and we said yes, she said. Tea occurs frequently in Agatha Christies novels. Tea is used to create a deceptive English sense of ease and comfort in her novels. However, strong tea, containing tannins, often disguises the fatal poison. She mentioned Christies The Harlequin Tea Set , a collection of nine short stories. Another collection, Partners in Crime , has a story called A Pot of Tea . Still from Murder on the Orient Express, 2017 20th Century Studios There is this passage in A Pocket Full of Rye : There was no doubt but that Mr Fortescue was very seriously ill. Even as she came up to him, his body was convulsed in a painful spasmodic movement. Words came out in jerky gasps. Teawhat the hellyou put in the teaget helpquick get a doctor. Tea makes for the perfect English murder. The word tea is used 113 times in A Pocket Full of Rye , 46 times in 4.50 From Paddington and 35 times in At Bertrams Hotel . One of the most famous mentions of tea in a Christie novel comes from Griselda in The Murder at the Vicarage : What are you doing this afternoon, Griselda? My duty, said Griselda. My duty as the Vicaress. Tea and scandal at four-thirty. In The Pale Horse , Christie used thallium mixed into a tea service. Her description of thallium poisoning symptomsspecifically lethargy and hair losswas so scientifically accurate that it later helped real-life doctors correctly diagnose and save a real poisoning victim. Still from And Then There Were None, 2015, BBC Agatha Christie Limited In The Moving Finger , a lethal dose of strychnine is hidden inside a tea cake. Strychnine is exceptionally bitter, requiring sweet, baked goods to disguise the taste. In The Hollow , the killer uses afternoon tea to administer deadly digitalis (derived from the foxglove plant). Sethia is wondering whether there should be a Newby Teas ceremony to inaugurate the exhibition. The British Library said the exhibition, will go behind the books to explore how Christies life, travels and interests informed her work and the creation of her iconic characters. Through personal objects belonging to Christie, many of which have never been displayed before, visitors will gain unprecedented insight into her writing process and explore her impact on crime fiction. Accompanying the exhibition will be displays and a major events season celebrating Christies influence on literature at libraries across the UK. Still from And Then There Were None, 2015, BBC Agatha Christie Limited Lucy Rowland, lead curator of the exhibition, which will run from 30 October 2026 20 June 2027, said: The biggest exhibition held in the UK in almost 25 years to celebrate Christies writing, visitors will see over 100 items from different periods in her life, drawn from the British Librarys own collection, the Christie Archive Trust and other lenders, including material never displayed before. Her impact on crime fiction as a genre has been immense and this exhibition will take visitors back to Christies childhood and explore her journey to becoming an iconic writer, while celebrating how adaptions of her novels for stage and screen continue to enthral audiences today, over 50 years after her death. Great Western Railway is also a sponsor. Still from And Then There Were None, 2015, BBC Agatha Christie Limited Amanda Burns, sales and marketing director at Great Western Railway (GWR), said: Agatha Christie and Great Western Railway share a story that stretches back over a century. Her love of train travel and the journeys she took between London and the South West helped inspire some of the most celebrated crime fiction ever written. This partnership is an opportunity to connect people with the places Christie loved: Torquay, Dartmouth and the Devon coastline, and inspire travel between the South West and London, just as she did. Giving details of what is in store for visitors, the British Library said: The exhibition will take visitors on a journey through Christies upbringing, her interests and travels and how she adapted her novels for the stage, through five immersive sections filled with items from her personal life, including her typewriter, professional and personal correspondence with other writers, family photographs and notebooks and typescripts for novels. There will also be clues and Easter eggs dotted throughout the exhibition for Christie fans to sleuth out. Christies impact on the wider crime fiction genre will be explored through interviews within the exhibition with leading writers, broadcasters and notable fans. Agatha Christies Remington typewriter from 1937 The Christie Archive Trust In the section, The Country House, visitors will gain an insight into Christies childhood and adolescence through exploring the quintessential setting for many of her novels, the English country house.

Sayers. Agatha Christies Remington typewriter from 1937 The Christie Archive Trust This is followed by a section called The dispensary: During the First World War Christie volunteered as a nurse and pharmacy dispenser, honing a knowledge of drugs and toxins which would later prove invaluable to a crime writer. Visitors will explore a dispensary filled with the poisons that crop up in Christies work, displayed with the study notes for her pharmaceutical exams taken in 1917 and her World War One service record. The year 1914 also marked when Christie married her first husband, Archie, and there will be letters from him, alongside her notebooks containing ideas for stories and handwritten research notes on poisons including those for her novel The Pale Horse which has been credited for saving lives in the real world. Agatha Christies study notes for her pharmaceutical exam taken in 1917 The Christie Archive Trust Next is The Train: On leaving the dispensary, visitors will board an Orient Express-inspired train carriage that will evoke the glamour and intrigue of 1920s travel while also exploring Christies use of the closed circle mystery, perfect for stories set in enclosed compartments. Christie was a keen rail enthusiast and this section will explore how her experiences journeying abroad and sharp observations of fellow travellers inspired her writing and helped form the characters and settings for some of her most famous novels, including Murder on the Orient Express . The inter-war years were busy for Christie as she published over 30 novels, including the career-making The Murder of Roger Ackroyd, renegotiated a new publishing contract and spent 10 months travelling across the world with her first husband, Archie Christie. On display will be photographs capturing Christie surfing in Hawaii in 1922 alongside a replica of the surfboard she used, Christies hand-written notes for her Isle of Man treasure hunt and a letter written by Christie relaying her journey on the Orient Express in 1931. Letter from Agatha Christie to her second husband Max Mallowan, in December 1930. Agatha writes to Max describing her return home from their honeymoon, on the Orient Express. Documenting how the train had been halted by floods and her fellow travellers' reactions, this event would inspire her to write Murder on the Orient Express a few years later. The Christie Archive Trust This is followed by The dig: After disembarking from the train visitors will find themselves at the site of an archaeological dig in the 1930s, a time that marked Christies second marriage to archaeologist Max Mallowan and her most prolific writing period. While Christie and her novels are associated with the English countryside, her experiences taking photographs and supporting the work of archaeologists on digs in Iraq and Syria from the 1930s informed novels like Murder in Mesopotamia and They Came to Baghdad. On display will be Christies plot notes for both novels alongside the 1937 Remington typewriter she used to write And Then There Were None , along with the cine film footage taken by Christie documenting her life on the digs and her Leica camera used for photographing artefacts, including one of the earliest known portrait sculptures, discovered on an excavation led by Max.

The Christie Archive Trust The fifth and final section is The Theatre: Visitors will then travel to the glittering West End of the 1950s for the final section, that will explore Christies work adapting her novels for stage productions that delighted post-war audiences looking for escapism and intrigue, making her the most successful female playwright of all time. Visitors will discover how she adapted her style and plots for the stage, from her notes for Witness for the Prosecution to rare footage of Christie at The Mousetrap celebrations, the typescript for Curtain: Poirots Last Case and the Dictaphone she used in later life to transcribe her first drafts for stories, such as Endless Night (1967). Screen adaptations also brought Christies iconic detectives to wider audiences and this section features posters and costumes from film and TV adaptions over the recent decades, including Ariadne Oliver (portrayed by Zo Wanamaker)s coat from Dead Mans Folly (2013) offering visitors the chance to reflect on her impact across the crime genre from literature and theatre to film and TV.

Advanced healthcare must reach smaller districts: LG Sinha
Srinagar, Aug 26: Lieutenant Governor Manoj Sinha on Wednesday called for making advanced healthcare accessible beyond major cities and specialised institutions, saying the country must bridge the gap between what modern medicine can provide and what is actually available to people in smaller districts and remote areas. Addressing the inaugural ceremony of the National Summit on Quaternary Healthcare: A National Strategy for Advanced Care at SKICC Srinagar, Sinha said the challenge of providing advanced healthcare is not confined to Jammu and Kashmir but was being faced across the country. Recalling his visit to a health centre near Akhnoor during the administrations Back to Village programme amid the COVID-19 pandemic, Sinha said a conversation with doctors there made him realise the difficulties faced by patients requiring diagnosis and treatment for complex diseases. He said one of the doctors had told him that families often brought sick children to the health centre hoping for proper diagnosis and treatment, but the absence of equipment for diagnosing complex diseases left doctors helpless. Sinha said the lack of specialised facilities often forced families from remote areas to undertake long journeys to Jammu, Chandigarh or Delhi in search of treatment. I feel that the patience of the mother and the patience of the father is not just in Jammu and Kashmir, he said, stressing that the issue was much wider and required a national approach. The Lieutenant Governor said India had made significant progress in healthcare over the past 1012 years, including expansion of health insurance coverage, vaccination programmes, medical education and healthcare infrastructure. He said the country had also witnessed a substantial expansion of medical infrastructure, with new AIIMS, medical colleges and MBBS seats being created across the country, including in Jammu and Kashmir. Sinha, however, said a significant gap continued to exist between the capabilities of modern medicine and their actual availability to people. There is a gap and there is a distance. Earlier, perhaps, we did not think in this manner because our resources were limited. But I feel now, as the doctors were saying, the country is thinking on a much larger scale, he said. He said the healthcare sector must now be viewed in the larger context of the vision of a Viksit Bharat, with greater emphasis on advanced care, research and specialised treatment. Referring to institutions such as AIIMS Delhi, PGI Chandigarh and SKIMS Srinagar, Sinha said these institutions represented the countrys specialised healthcare capabilities, but stressed that a comprehensive healthcare ecosystem still required sustained efforts. This programme is important because you have deep knowledge of this subject, he told healthcare experts, researchers, scientists and administrators attending the summit. Sinha emphasised that hospitals should not merely function as treatment centres but should also become centres of research and innovation. We should not only make hospitals. We should also make them centres of research initiatives, he said, adding that clinical treatment and research should go hand in hand. He stressed that advanced healthcare centres should have access to every facility made possible by modern science. Every possibility that science allows should be available in the quaternary care centre, he said. On healthcare infrastructure and funding, Sinha said the government was making provisions through annual budgets to strengthen and modernise the sector. He said the countrys growing economy was creating greater opportunities for healthcare and expressed satisfaction that doctors and specialists were increasingly becoming available across different levels of care. The Lieutenant Governor said institutions such as NITI Aayog could play an important role in developing strategies to strengthen advanced healthcare and integrate it with existing systems. He also called for greater use of telemedicine to connect healthcare facilities across the Union Territory and ensure access to specialised expertise in remote areas. Advanced care without advanced doctors is not possible, Sinha said. Calling for greater cooperation among Himalayan states, he said they could jointly plan biomedical research and identify selected areas for coordinated research to address region-specific healthcare challenges. The summit brought together healthcare researchers, scientists, medical professionals, administrators and representatives of various institutions to deliberate on advanced and quaternary healthcare, clinical care, research and strengthening the overall healthcare ecosystem. Sinha said the ultimate objective should be to ensure that advances in medical science translate into accessible and affordable treatment for ordinary citizens, particularly those living away from major urban healthcare centres.(KNO)
