Digital Desk | New Delhi, Nov 4 (IANS) India's first-ever gold medallist at the Senior World Championships in wrestling, Manisha Bhanwala, met Union Sports Minister Mansukh Mandaviya after her historic triumph in the women's 59kg category in Astana, Kazakhstan. During the interaction, Manisha spoke about the emotional toll of the selection process and the dramatic comeback that earned her the gold medal. She revealed that she had struggled to sleep for 10 days after coming through the selection trials. I came out of the selection game, sir. I couldn't sleep for 10 days, sir, Manisha told Mandaviya. Recalling her performance in the final against Abigail Nette of the United States, the Indian wrestler acknowledged that she was trailing by six points before turning the contest around. Yes, sir. I started again, sir, she said when asked about her response to the deficit. Asked how she felt after winning the final, Manisha again referred to the sleepless nights following the selection process, adding, But sir, I was sitting on the left side, sir. I slept peacefully, sir. Mandaviya also recalled Manisha's previous visit two years ago and asked her, You came here two years ago. Were you voting for me or not? Manisha replied, Sir, I had gone to the World Championship. Yes, I had sent you. So, what is my job? You shouldn't be unjust. You should be sent. All of you are my athletes. You are the athletes of my country, the Sports Minister said. Emphasising the importance of hard work and faith in one's efforts, Mandaviya invoked the Bhagavad Gita, quoting, . If Lord Krishna himself says something, it shouldn't be wrong, he said, before explaining the message: Have faith in your karma. You will get the result. I wish all of you success, he added, to which Manisha responded, Thank you, sir. Manisha made history on October 30 by becoming the first Indian wrestler to win gold at the Senior World Championships. She defeated Nette 8-6 in the 59kg final after recovering from a 6-0 deficit. The Indian had a difficult start to the bout, conceding four points before India's unsuccessful challenge handed Nette another point. A caution against Manisha extended the American's advantage to 6-0, but the Indian managed a stepout before the break to get on the scoreboard. Manisha then mounted a remarkable comeback, scoring a takedown and adding another point after Nette's unsuccessful challenge. She followed it up with a two-point gut-wrench to level the scores at 6-6. With Nette looking to defend her criteria advantage, Manisha produced a pressure takedown to move ahead 8-6 and held on to secure the historic gold. Earlier in the tournament, Manisha had defeated Canada's Laurence Beauregard 6-2 in the pre-quarterfinals before overcoming Mongolia's Bolortuya Khurelkhuu in the semifinals to book her place in the final. India had two previous opportunities to win gold at the championships, with Neelam in the 50kg and Kajal in the 76kg category finishing with silver medals after losing their respective finals.

Use of technology for greater road safety discussed at IIT Madras
Digital Desk | Kolkata, Nov 4 (IANS) The use of Geospatial data and Artificial Intelligence (AI) to enable advanced road safety interventions came up for discussion during a fireside chat with Justice Abhay Manohar Sapre, former judge, Supreme Court of India, and chairman, Supreme Court Committee on Road Safety (SCCoRS), and Sanjay Bandopadhyay, member, SCCoRS at the Indian Institute of Technology (IIT) Madras on Wednesday. The event brought together students, practitioners and innovators, who explored India's road safety challenges and the role of technology in addressing them. The key causes of road crashes, including overspeeding, drunk driving, wrong-side driving, jumping red lights, mobile phone use while driving, unsafe overtaking and driver fatigue and stress, were highlighted by Justice Sapre. He also spoke on the importance of applying first-principles thinking to develop effective solutions. The Road Safety Innovation Hub, developed by the Government of Tamil Nadu with RBG Labs, was also introduced during the session as a platform for students, researchers and entrepreneurs to share, test and advance their ideas. The Road Safety Innovation Hub often works alongside academic partners like the Centre of Excellence for Road Safety at IIT Madras to design, test, and deploy new technologies and data-driven solutions for safer roads. Its core focus area is creating data-backed safety interventions, smart mobility tools, low-cost engineering fixes, and emerging safety technologies to reduce traffic crashes and fatalities. It aligns with similar state and national deep-tech frameworks in India such as Odisha's design-thinking capacity programs and IIT Delhi's Bharat Safety initiative to scale tech-driven road safety. According to data shared in Parliament by the Ministry of Road Transport and Highways (MoRTH), 1,77,177 people were killed in road accidents in India in 2024. This was a 2.3% increase from the previous year. This effectively means that nearly 485 people die due to road accidents in India every day, and the toll is about 20 per hour. Data reveals that the number of deaths has gone up over the years. While 1,68,491 people were killed in 2022, the toll was 1,72,890 in 2023. About 46.2% of those killed are two-wheeler riders, while 20.6% are pedestrians. About 66.1% of those killed are in the productive age group of 18 to 45 years, while those aged between 18 and 60 make up 83.3%.
