News Brief Madhya Pradesh has launched a scientific project to revive Burhanpur's 400-year-old Kundi Bhandara , a Mughal-era underground water supply system that transported groundwater across the city entirely by gravity, without pumps or electricity. The state believes the restored system could help address present-day water shortages while preserving an important engineering heritage. The network is on UNESCO's Tentative World Heritage list. Experts from MANIT Bhopal are preparing a comprehensive restoration blueprint using modern non-destructive surveys. Parts of the system are still functional, with water continuing to flow despite centuries of neglect. Mughal officials associated with the project Built around 1615 during the reign of Mughal Emperor Jahangir .

The system was based on the Persian qanat...

  Outliers, Indian Style: Why Success Rarely Travels Alone Malcolm Gladwell's Outliers makes a simple but uncomfortable claim: nobody succeeds purely on talent or grit. Success is built on hidden advantages — timing, culture, and opportunities that compound quietly until they look like individual brilliance. Apply that lens to India and the pattern holds up remarkably well, sometimes more starkly than in Gladwell's American examples. 1. Accumulative Advantage — The School and Cricket Cutoff Gladwell's Canadian hockey cutoff has a direct Indian parallel in school admission cutoffs and age-group cricket selection. School admissions: Most Indian schools set a cutoff age of June 1st (varies by state and CBSE guidance) for Class 1 entry. A child born in June is nearly a full year older than a classmate born the following May. That extra year of neuromuscular and cognitive maturity gets mistaken for being "sharper," and these children are more often picked for Olympiad ...
