This achievement enhances Chandigarh University’s reputation as a hub for STEM excellence and space-science research that empowers students to work with authentic scientific data, advanced analytical tools and international research standards. By enabling our students to contribute meaningfully to the planetary-defense efforts and asteroid research which are critical fields for future deep-space exploration, Chandigarh University has further strengthened its position as a hub of innovation, scientific discovery and global academic excellence .” “ The recognition of 18 students as NASA Citizen Scientists stands as a powerful inspiration for aspiring researchers and young science enthusiasts across the country. It highlights how dedication, mentorship and hands-on scientific exposure can enable students to achieve global recognition while they are still in academia. Chandigarh University remains committed to expanding opportunities in astronomy, space science, and emerging technologies, ensuring that its students continue to make meaningful contributions to global scientific discovery and reinforce India’s presence in the evolving frontier of space-science research ,” added Sandhu.

Consumer Connect: 'Service Charge In Restaurants Under Any Name Is Illegal,' Says Expert
Q. I find that many restaurants in Mumbai, Thane, and Navi Mumbai are recovering service charge from customers under different names. For example, Banana Leaf from Lower Parel is charging 5% on the total bill as staff welfare. Punjab Grill from Nerul is charging 10% as staff contribution, whereas Mainland China from Thane adds discretionary SC 10%. I want to know whether including such 5% to 10% amount in the name of service charge, staff welfare, or staff contribution is permissible and legal. In some cases, restaurants refuse to remove it, stating that it is mentioned in the menu card and, therefore, when a customer places an order, it becomes a binding contract between the customer and the restaurant. How far is this argument valid? On many occasions, customers, even knowing that it is discretionary, do not wish to raise a dispute or ask the waiter to delete the amount in the presence of guests or business contacts, as it becomes awkward and embarrassing. What can be done to stop such practice? Dr Balasaheb Gaikwad, Mulund (East) A. Several restaurants in Mumbai and adjoining areas levy 5% to 10% as service charge under different descriptions such as charity contribution, staff welfare fund, or staff contribution. In some cases, the menu card mentions in fine print that it is a voluntary tip and can be removed on request; however, this often goes unnoticed. In other cases, the charge is directly added to the bill without giving consumers any real option to refuse. To answer your first question: Levying 5% to 10% under the name of service charge or any other nomenclature is neither permissible nor legal. The Central Consumer Protection Authority (CCPA) has declared the levy of service charge in any form as an unfair trade practice and prohibited it through its guidelines dated July 4, 2022. The Delhi High Court (HC), in its judgment of December 2025, dismissed appeals filed by hotel and restaurant associations challenging these guidelines and upheld the prohibition. The court categorically ruled that compulsory recovery of service charges against the consumers will amounts to an unfair trade practice. Service charge is in the nature of a tip and is entirely voluntary. No restaurant can include it compulsorily in the bill or decide the percentage payable to its staff. Consumers should also note that GST is often levied on such amounts, further increasing the burden. Regarding the argument that mentioning service charge in the menu card makes it a binding contract term, this contention was rejected by the Delhi HC. The court held that such a term is one-sided and constitutes an unfair contract term, and therefore is not legally sustainable. Restaurants cannot enforce such clauses or insist on payment. Any such coercive practice is illegal, and establishments may be directed to refund the amounts collected, along with interest, to the consumer welfare fund. It is understandable that customers may feel uncomfortable asking for removal of the charge in front of guests. In such cases, consumers should, after making the payment, lodge a complaint with the National Consumer Helpline by calling the toll-free numbers 1800-11-4000 or 1915, providing bill details and the restaurants name and address, and seek a refund of the Service Charge collected in any form.

Exploring The Hidden Gems Of Indias Folk Music
One always talks of the richness and diversity of Indian folk music forms, right from the variety of styles and range of instruments to the sheer excess of talent in each language and state. And though festivals like Jodhpur RIFF, Ruhaniyat, Roots at Mahindra and the earlier Paddy Fields have showcased artistes from different sub-genres, one always feels a lot more needs to be done to familiarise styles from across India. In some ways, the seminar on folk music organised recently at the Experimental Theatre by the National Centre for.the Performing Arts (NCPA) and the International Foundation for Fine Arts was quite beneficial to folk lovers. After Shekhar Sen talked about the role of folk music lok geet - in todays culture, there were sessions by Malini Awasthi on Uttar Pradesh styles, Ashit Desai and Hema Desai on Gujarat, Chandan Tiwari on Bihar, Nandesh Vitthal Umap on Maharashtra, Ratnaboli Bose, Rangoli Biswas and group on Bengal and Rakesh Tiwari on Chhattisgarh. Unlike most seminars, which are filled with speeches and PowerPoint presentations, this one was more like a set of live demonstrations with brief lectures thrown in. Some people felt a seminar on folk music was incomplete without Rajasthan and Punjab, but then, there has been an overdose of shows depicting these states. Chhattisgarh and Bihar folk is heard less in Mumbai, and the presentations acted as eye-openers. One also got to know about the specialities of different states like Bhavaiya, Bhatiyali and Jhumur from Bengal, or Garba, Lagangeet or Bhavai from Gujarat or Sohar, Chaiti and Bidaai from Uttar Pradesh. Whatever region they belong to, folk songs come under specific categories. They can involves tales of gods and goddesses, kings and clowns, heroes and villains, real and fictional. They could be associated with different stages, from birth to marriage and bidaai to death. They could be about different festivals or seasons. The scope is endless. Each district in India has its own special flavour, and with spoken dialects changing from town to town, one notices a change in the style of music too. One welcomes the broader intent of the seminar and also the sheer variety of songs sung by the participants. But there are a couple of things one needs to look at. For a field as vast and diverse as Indian folk, a single days programme seemed inadequate. Only one hour was slotted to each participant, and that duration was cut to 40 minutes after the first few sessions. Thus, many of them were only able to skim the surface. A two-day seminar, with representation from more states, would be better. Secondly, considering that entry was open to all without any ticket fee, it was surprising to see so many empty seats. The attendees included musicians, researchers, connoisseurs and students, but there were obviously many who missed something enriching. While one hopes such a seminar becomes a regular feature, one also looks forward to Living Traditions at the Experimental Theatre on March 6 and 7, which will focus on the folk forms of Arunachal Pradesh. Considering that not much is known about the states culture within Mumbai circles, there will be plenty to learn here. Australian Drummer Alexander Flood Brings Jazztronica Groove To Mumbai's NMACC Over the past seven or eight years, barring the Pandemic period, there have been regular activities to promote different folk styles. Showcase Events organised the Sounds From The Desert shows to highlight the music of Rajasthan and later Fankar-e-Kashmir to identify talent from the northern states. The Amarrass nights in Delhi feature folk artistes. Apart from the purer forms, there has been an increase in folk-fusion acts, where the aim is to attract the younger generation by blending traditional styles with jazz, rock or electronica. Besides acts like Indian Ocean, Advaita, Swarathma, Raghu Dixit, Himali Mou and Tapi Project, the Coke Studio series has showcased some talented artistes. Yes, there have been sincere efforts. But they all seem to be travelling in different directions. This is where seminars, workshops and guided listening sessions can play a role in creating more awareness.

Mizoram Govt To Introduce Experience-Based Curriculum In Schools To Replace Rote Learning
Aizawl: The Mizoram government will introduce experience-based curriculum in schools to replace rote learning, in a major transition in the state's pedagogical approach, an official said on Friday. The government is also planning to introduce standardised annual exams for classes 5 and 8 in which students from various schools will be required to answer uniform questions, the official said. The move is a departure from the traditional rote memorisation or learning by heart method and is designed to reform and modernise the state's education system in line with the National Curriculum Framework, 2023 and the National Education Policy (NEP), 2020, she said. State Council of Educational Research and Training Director Caroline Zoramthangi said new textbooks will be rolled out from the 2026-27 academic session for classes 1, 2, 3 and 6. US: 22-Year-Old Indian Student Saketh Sreenivasaiah Disappears In Berkeley; Search Intensifies In The East Bay Area The new textbooks have been finalised and are being printed by the state's Printing and Stationery Department to be implemented in the upcoming academic session, she said. She said that new textbooks for classes 4, 5, 7 and 8 will be rolled out from the 2027-28 academic year. Caroline said the new model will prioritise illustration, drama and field trips, among others, over rote memorisation to educate students on critical thinking as well as direct experiential learning rather than abstract theory. In line with NEP 2020 and NCF 2023, education must be holistic. Instead of merely measuring a child's knowledge level, the focus will shift to physical, emotional, moral and spiritual development. Learning will be child-centric and enjoyable for students, who will engage in project works, she told PTI. She said subjects like Mathematics and Science will be taught in a way that relates directly to their daily lives. Over 2,800 Vacancies In All India Services; IFoS Worst Hit, Govt Tells Parliament The shift also aims to make the classroom environment more interactive and less burdensome for young learners, she added. Apart from this curriculum shift, Caroline said the government will also implement competency-based uniform question papers for students of classes 5 and 8 across 770 state-run and aided schools for standardised assessment. Results from these exams will be centralised and analysed by the SCERT to monitor educational standards across the state, she said. The education minister aims to achieve quality education through assessment reform and has taken proactive steps in this direction. Questions will now be competency-based, developed entirely in accordance with the NCF 2023, she said. Punjab Govt To Introduce 'On-Screen' Marking System For 2026 Board Exam Evaluations She said the shift is expected to improve the state's performance in national-level competitive examinations. Last month, School Education Minister Vanlalthlana announced that the Mizoram Board of School Education (MBSE) will cease to follow the traditional way of declaring results of classes 10 and 12 with merit list (Top-10) or rank, distinction and division in the result books from the current year. The move was to prevent high-stakes competition among students through rote memorisation and to ensure quality and competency-based education, the minister had said.

Punjab Govt To Introduce 'On-Screen' Marking System For 2026 Board Exam Evaluations
Chandigarh: The state government is set to introduce a major reform in the evaluation process for board examinations, with the Punjab School Education Board (PSEB) preparing to roll out an on-screen marking system for the March 2026 examinations. Announcing the initiative, Education Minister Harjot Singh Bains said that Punjab will become one of the first state boards in the country to adopt end-to-end digital evaluation, marking a transformative shift in how answer sheets are assessed. Sharing details of the project, Bains said, This digital system will enable teachers to evaluate scanned answer sheets on computers, with marks calculated automatically by software, ensuring faster and more accurate results. US: 22-Year-Old Indian Student Saketh Sreenivasaiah Disappears In Berkeley; Search Intensifies In The East Bay Area The education minister further said that the system has already demonstrated its effectiveness. The system has already proved its mettle by evaluating 23,000 answer sheets swiftly and accurately during the September 2025 Supplementary Examinations, he stated. Encouraged by these exceptional outcomes, the Punjab School Education Board will implement On-Screen Marking (OSM) in one subject of the matriculation examination this year, with phased expansion in subsequent cycles, an official statement said. Explaining the technical safeguards, Bains said, Each page of the newly designed answer sheet features a unique QR code, enabling secure scanning and seamless digital processing. Under the OSM system, answer sheets are scanned in a protected environment and uploaded to a centralised dashboard, where examiners evaluate them online with automated totalling, structured marking schemes and real-time progress monitoring. Over 2,800 Vacancies In All India Services; IFoS Worst Hit, Govt Tells Parliament Describing the reform as far more than a technological upgrade, Bains said, It is not just an upgrade, it's a complete overhaul of evaluating our children's future. It will ensure every student gets fairness, speed and accuracy in examinations. PSEB chairman Dr Amarpal Singh underlined the student-first vision guiding the reform. This initiative reinforces Chief Minister Bhagwant Singh Mann-led Punjab Government's commitment to integrity and efficiency. Students will benefit from reduced result timelines, standardised marking and complete transparency in evaluation. Our teachers, too, will work with a clutter-free digital interface that ensures consistency and systematic record-keeping, he said. Singh informed that the board has completed all technical and administrative preparations for the March 2026 rollout. The OSM system carries the guarantee of Punjab's commitment to its students, he stated.

Mumbai Grahak Panchayat Flags 9 Restaurants For 'Mandatory' Service Charges Despite Court Ruling
Mumbai: The Mumbai Grahak Panchayat (MGP) has written to the chairperson of the Central Consumer Protection Authority (CCPA) regarding alleged violations of the CCPAs directives prohibiting restaurants and hotels from levying mandatory service charges on consumers. The FPJ contacted all the restaurants tabled in the letter for their alleged violations, but none of them responded. In the letter, MGP chairman Advocate Shirish Deshpande referred to the Delhi High Court judgment dated March 28, 2025, which categorically upheld the validity of the CCPA directives and dismissed writ petitions filed by hotel and restaurant associations. The courts ruling has reinforced the principle that consumers cannot be compelled to pay service charges against their wishes, the letter stated. The MGP said that despite clear legal position, its vigilance efforts revealed that several restaurants continue to compulsorily charge and recover service charges, either directly or under different nomenclatures such as charity contribution, staff welfare or staff contribution. In some cases, the menu cards allegedly carry fine-print notes stating, A voluntary 10% tip for the service staff has been proposed to be added to your bill. If you would like it removed, please let your server know.

This will be removed if you do not opt for it. The MGP has identified nine restaurants that allegedly levied additional charges. These include Mumbai establishments such as Pizza by the Bay, which reportedly added a 10% tip under the name of charity commission, along with the note offering removal on request. Sizzlers The Food Studio allegedly charged a 5% tip with a note stating that an additional service charge is levied. Only Parathas, TAT, and Kamats Legacy were also named for charging extra amounts as service charges. Banana Leaf and Punjab Grill allegedly charged 5% and 10%, respectively, under the labels staff welfare and staff contribution. The MGP has also sought an investigation into their records for the last three financial years to determine the total amount collected under the head service charge or any other similar nomenclature, and to direct that the entire amount, along with penal interest, be credited to the Central Consumer Welfare Fund. Additionally, the MGP has requested the CCPA to issue a fresh public advisory.

There is never a dull moment when Arshdeep Singh is the frame. Despite the tensions and pressures of an IND vs PAK game, the Indian fast bowler was at his jovial best as the Men in Blue landed in Sri Lanka on Friday. The Men in Blue received a grand welcome from their co-hosts at the airport and the team hotel, where Arshdeep decided to own the moment for himself. A crowd of local musicians and dancers gathered, decked out in traditional attire, with drums in hand to welcome the defending champions. While the Indian team walked across stoically, Arshdeep stole the show with his dance. In a moment that has since gone viral, the Punjabi fast bowler enjoyed the music as teammate Axar Patel could not contain his laughter. Team India received a warm welcome on arrival in Colombo.

He has taken seven wickets in four matches at an average of 17.57, with best figures of 3/32. India would hope that the left-arm pacer can continue his exploits against their arch-rivals on Sunday in Colombo.

T20 WC: Scoring Fifty In The Tournament In India Is Special, Says Canadas Dhaliwal
T20 World Cup: Veteran Canada batter Navneet Dhaliwal said hitting a fifty in the group-stage clash against South Africa in the Mens T20 World Cup carried added significance as it came in a country where cricket is adored a lot. Dhaliwals fighting fifty went in vain as South Africa beat Canada by 57 runs in Ahmedabad. Canada are now looking to get their first win over UAE at the Arun Jaitley Stadium on Friday afternoon. Scoring fifty in World Cup cricket while playing in a nation with such a massive population where cricket is like a religion is special. Every second person plays here. The grinding is what I learned from Punjab and playing in India. The passion people have for the game helped me survive those tough periods in Canada, both in cricket and in my professional life. A bit of a discipline problem we have a little bit for sure, but when you need someone to stand in the middle and fight for their country, you see the true spirit of a Punjabi. They might be hard to control sometimes, but they'll fight until the end, Dhaliwal told broadcasters ahead of the clash. Dhaliwal reflected on the contrasting cricketing cultures in India and Canada, noting the challenges of balancing sport with professional life coming in a non-Test playing nation. Cricket in Canada is different from what you expect in Test nations. In the big nations, players are well-paid, but in Canada, you have to work. You have a family to support, and it isn't easy juggling your passion with your profession. But the World Cup is a huge stage, especially in India. I promised myself I'd keep fighting through every game to perform and get selected, and that's why I'm here today.
