Maharashtra State Lawn Tennis Association: At just 17 years old, Lilli Tagger has proven herself as a top contender at the 2026 Mumbai Open WTA 125K Series, securing a spot in the tournament's quarterfinals at the Maharashtra State Lawn Tennis Association (MSLTA).

Her grandmother introduced her to ping pong, which eventually led to tennis. At only 14, she bravely decided to leave home to chase her tennis dreams. I was based in Austria till I was 14, and then I left home and moved to Italy, close to Venice, to train at an academy and for the last two and a half years, Ive been travelling on tour, she shared.

Canadian institutions are actively looking for the right global partners and such collaborations have materialized organically in the past through academic introductions. Meanwhile, Senior Managing Director, Chandigarh University, Deep Inder Singh Sandhu extended collaboration offers to the Canadian minister across academics, research and innovation, clean energy and sustainability. Responding to the proposal, Sawhney said, We will take this forward through strong institution-to-institution connect and work closely with Chandigarh University to explore meaningful collaboration. CCUS is the future, and we already have universities in Canada actively working on Carbon Capture, Utilization and Storage technologies to address climate challenges. Beyond that, there is immense scope for joint work in clean energy, sustainability, artificial intelligence, agri-technology and advanced research, where our institutions can learn from each other and create real-world impact. On international education, the Canadian Minister said, Canadas quota for international students has not been fully utilized, and Indian students can still apply. Global student preferences are evolving, with countries like Australia seeing increased interest, but opportunities remain in Canada. The students from India receive high quality education in Canada and they can bring back that knowledge, technology and learning to Punjab and India. At the same time, institutions like Chandigarh University play an equally important role by retaining talent within India. On the suspension of in-person consular services in Indian cities like Chandigarh, Mumbai and Bengaluru and visa-related concerns, Sawhney said, Consular services are a federal matter, but we will take up the issue with our federal counterparts and advocate for the expansion of services to address the concerns of Indian students and professionals. On racial discrimination, Sawhney said, It is challenge that exist globally, but the Canadian government follows a zero-tolerance policy against such discrimination. Speaking about her Indian roots at Phagwara in Punjab, Sawhney said, Visiting my ancestral village near Phagwara after 25 years was an emotional experience, and I was deeply touched by the warmth and respect I received. In 2023, I also brought my children to Chandigarh to show them our family home." In response to a question regarding Canada becoming second home to Punjabis, Sawhney said, Canada has not simply become a second home for Punjabis but Punjabis have earned that place through their hard work, resilience and contribution to Canada. The Indian diaspora, particularly from Punjab, has played a significant role in Canadas growth and development. If you look at the talent pool across sectors in Canada, Punjabis form one of the strongest and most visible communities. In many ways, Punjab has become a second home to Canada, and that bond has been built through effort, trust and contribution.
