 On the occasion,  in his keynote address on “War, Will and Wisdom: India’s Evolving Military Thought in an Age of Strategic Uncertainty”,  the Chief Guest Lt Gen Ajay Chandpuria, AVSM, VSM, General Officer Commanding, Vajra Corps, said India have a befitting reply to Pakistan for the Pahalgam  terror attack with Operation Sindoor and achieved the desired success by making it clear that  terrorism will no longer be tolerated and anyone who helps terrorists will pay a heavy price for it.

“With Operation Sindoor, we have made it clear that if terror attacks like Pahalgam don’t stop, ghar mein ghus ke marenge (we will strike even inside their homes).  But everyone is asking why did we stop (Operation Sindoor) on 10th May (2025) ? Why didn’t we completely destroy Pakistan? The whole western world was up against India after operation Sindoor.  America thought it was the monitor of the world but we didn’t seek their permission to start the operation or took them on board for Operation Sindoor. We decided and we acted. After acting, we told them (US). So, they were very antagonised. They thought how can you (India) do it? We stopped Operation Sindoor at a particular point because it has achieved its objective as the biggest and most successful operation in Indian history against terrorism and it suited us to stop this Operation,”.

“In response to Uri attack, we crossed the LoC and conducted a surgical strike across the border. After Pulwama attack, we sent the Air Force and targeted terrorist infrastructure in Balakot. After Pahalgam attack, we attacked nine targets 300-400 kilometers inside Pakistan. All this was done in ‘proportion’. Why did we stop (Operation Sindoor) on May 10th? There were profound reasons behind this. The financial year begins in April, and the crops were standing in the fields. A war at that time could have set our economy back by 20 years. To become a developed nation by 2047, we need sustained economic growth.  We acted of our own volition and stopped Operation Sindoor according to our strategic needs,” he added.

On this occasion, an Indian Army Infantry Small Arms Exhibition at Chandigarh University provided students first-hand exposure to the professionalism, technology, and operational ethos of the Indian Army. This exhibition by Indian Army showcased modern and upgraded weapons used by the army, including BFSR TI camera, 81 mm mortar, ATGM unified launcher and 7.52 mm MAG 58 machine gun. The exhibition also featured lethal weapons such as the Automatic Grenade Launcher-17, 7.62 Dragunov sniper rifle, .338 SAKO TRG 42 sniper rifle, 7.62 mm Negev LMG, 7.62 mm SIG rifle, 7.62 mm AK-203 rifle, and 5.56 mm INSAS rifle.

Over 300 students and their parents attended the interactive and educational event, Achchi Bhookh Quiz, that was hosted by Slurrp in association with LupinLife Aptivate in Mumbai

Recognised by both the Asia Book of Records and the India Book of Records as the largest food quiz of its kind, the Achchi Bhookh School Foodie Quiz has evolved into a nationwide movement promoting nutritional awareness amongst children and families. The finale, spearheaded by prominent educators and nutrition experts, along with HT Labs co-founder and CEO Avinash Mudaliar, a renowned quizmaster himself, aimed to bridge the gap in food literacy and address misconceptions about diet and health. Held for children from Classes 1 to 6 (aged 6 to 12), the event was designed to encourage intergenerational learning, with the program highlighting key aspects of healthy living, nutritious consumption patterns, including the importance of eating seasonal fruits and vegetables, reducing processed food intake, and the benefits of regular exercise.

Meet The Winners

The contenders gathered from across India for the national semi-finals and final, with the prizes up for grabs including Hybrid Bikes, a laptop, a tablet PC, and a smartwatch. One of the standout features of the event was the delivery of over 150 nutrition workshops for families nationwide. The flagship quiz competition, which saw active participation from students and parents as teams, attracted over 35,000 pan-India online registrations across different cities. Over 100 teams, each from 24 locations, were selected for an engaging Cluster Finals round, which saw 24 pairs of finalists advance to the Grand Finale.

The finale saw intrepid child-parent pairs from across the length and breadth of India ready to ace the quiz for the top spots.

The caliber of talent this year was truly outstanding, with young minds from across the nation offering unique regional insights and a sincere passion for culinary education. These students demonstrated an awareness that stretched past simple rote learning.”

Anil V Kaushal, CEO, LupinLife Consumer Healthcare Limited, added, “It’s been a joy to see how this quiz brings the magic of learning and healthy eating to life. The enthusiasm from every child and parent has been nothing short of infectious, creating a ripple effect of positive growth within the home. Seeing these young ‘stars’ grow in confidence and understanding is exactly why we do what we do.”

Endless Innovation

In an innovative addition to this year’s edition, LupinLife also launched Nutribot, a WhatsApp-based nutrition assistant designed to help parents navigate children’s dietary queries. The AI-powered chatbot offers meal planning suggestions, answers nutrition questions, and provides customised advice based on children’s age, weight, and activity levels. Throughout the day, the audience asked Nutribot their burning nutrition queries, exploring the tool’s diverse and informed potential, after which the most insightful questions were selected for special rewards.

While the contestants were the stars of the show, the Quizmaster also engaged the audience with entertaining foodie trivia, creating an informative experience for all attendees. The program concluded with students taking a pledge to adopt healthier lifestyles and help spread awareness within their communities. From modest crowds of 5,000 to 10,000, to a record 22,000 last year, this season set a new benchmark with over 35,000 registrations from every corner of India, highlighting the growing desire of children and parents alike to engage with food in informed ways. With the support of LupinLife, the quiz was made an engaging experience and highlighted the importance of such initiatives in tackling the rising prevalence of lifestyle-related health issues among younger generations.

Jindal Institute of Medical Sciences (JIMS), Hisar, has become the first medical institution in North India to introduce the SkyWalker™ Orthopedic Robotic System for knee replacement surgery, in collaboration with U.S.-headquartered MicroPort Orthopedics Inc. This landmark installation marks a significant advancement in the orthopedic care landscape across Haryana, Punjab, and Rajasthan, and is a moment of pride for both Hisar and JIMS.

Launch of SkyWalker Orthopedics Robotic System

SkyWalker™ is the only orthopedic robotic platform globally that is integrated with a patented True Medial-Pivot Knee philosophy, delivering sub-millimeter precision for highly accurate joint alignment. This technology enables superior stability, improved functional outcomes, and faster recovery—resulting in a durable, natural-feeling knee that allows patients to return more quickly to everyday activities such as walking long distances and climbing stairs with confidence and ease.

Leadership teams from Jindal Hospital, Hisar and MicroPort Orthopedics

Earlier, on the occasion of the birth anniversary of Late Shri Netram Jindal Ji and Late Smt. Chandrwali Jindal Ji, the SkyWalker™ Orthopedic Robotic System was graciously introduced by Smt. Savitri Devi Jindal Ji for the benefit of the masses. The introduction of this state-of-the-art robotic technology reflects Jindal Hospital’s continued commitment to advancing orthopedic care through precision, innovation, and patient- centric treatment.

“JIMS carries a strong legacy of over 57 years, defined by patient-centric care, continuous advancement, and a commitment to remain at the forefront of medical science,” said Dr. Ritu Chopra, Medical Director, Jindal Institute of Medical Sciences. “The adoption of cutting-edge medical technology is central to our mission, and we are proud to be the first institution in North India to bring SkyWalker™ robotic technology to our patients.”

Dr. Sidharth Baheti, Senior Orthopedician at JIMS, Hisar, highlighted the growing clinical need in the region, “Across rural Haryana and Punjab, we are witnessing a significant rise in knee osteoarthritis—impacting nearly 60–65% of the elderly population in rural and semi-urban areas. Alarmingly, about 15–20% of these patients already present with advanced, bone-on-bone arthritis and severe deformities. Whether it is a complex case with deformity or the more common presentation of knee osteoarthritis, patients seek total knee replacement surgery to regain mobility and independence. In this context, the SkyWalker™ Robotic System represents a timely paradigm shift—enabling accurate joint-line reconstruction with greater ease, reduced discomfort, and notably faster recovery in all kinds of presentations.”

SkyWalker™ is fully compatible with the Evolution® Medial-Pivot Knee System, which closely replicates natural knee kinematics. This combination overcomes long-standing challenges associated with conventional knee replacement—such as instability and residual pain.

“We believe that the dynamic gap balancing and built-in kinematic principles of SkyWalker™ allow complex cases to be managed far more effectively than traditional non-robotic techniques. It clearly stands apart from existing options, establishing a new patient-first benchmark in knee replacement surgery and elevating the overall surgical experience,” added Dr. Vishal Gupta, Senior Orthopedician at JIMS.

Dr. Mukesh Parmar, Senior Director and General Manager – South Asia, MicroPort Orthopedics, commented, “It is a privilege to launch the SkyWalker™ system at an institution like JIMS, which is deeply committed to patient outcomes. Together, we are setting a new benchmark—aligned with global standards—for total knee replacement across the region with both a world-class knee implant and a cutting-edge ortho-robotic system. The choice of implant is as critical as the robotic platform itself, since it remains with the patient for life. The Evolution® Medial-Pivot Knee has demonstrated over 95% patient satisfaction, 98.8% survivorship at 17 years, and nearly 80% Forgotten Joint Scores worldwide. Alongside 45+ other countries, our patients in India deserve to experience the benefits of this unparalleled implant performance with the seamless and refined customization for every knee that can be achieved with the SkyWalker™ system.”

With the introduction of the SkyWalker™ Orthopedic Robotic System, JIMS, Hisar, further strengthens its position as a leading destination for advanced orthopedic care in India, transforming patient outcomes and redefining standards in knee replacement surgery.
