They expressed particular gratitude to the parents whose nomination brought attention to the profound difference his care has made in the lives of young patients and their families.
The Sinha family extended their heartfelt congratulations to Dr Ian Sinha and wished him continued success in his efforts to advance child healthcare, inspire future generations of medical professionals and contribute to healthier futures for children across the United Kingdom and beyond.

The conversation also explored some of the key challenges facing the mobility sector, including economic pressures, regulatory developments, and the importance of creating sustainable opportunities for drivers.
“Egypt is a market where people value flexibility, choice, and the ability to make decisions that work for them. Our model is built around giving both drivers and passengers a greater role in that process,” said Alaa El Din Shalaby, Country Manager for inDrive Egypt. “Our growth in Egypt has shown us the importance of building our services around real local needs. As we look ahead, we remain focused on developing solutions that create value for both drivers and passengers while continuing to expand our role within the wider urban services ecosystem.”
In addition to the fireside chat, inDrive participated in a panel discussion with Vezeeta titled “Beyond Apps: Why Healthcare Ecosystems Need Integration.” The session explored how technology platforms and healthcare providers can collaborate to create more connected and accessible experiences for users, highlighting the growing role of partnerships and integration in digital ecosystems.

Australian-Born Gourmet Burger Brand Burgertory Makes Its India Debut in Mumbai
Mumbai, Sept 28: Australian-born gourmet burger brand Burgertory has made its India debut with its first outlet in Andheri, Mumbai. Rooted in bold flavours, fresh preparation and its signature ‘Saints vs Sinners’ philosophy, the brand brings together gourmet burgers, sides, beverages and music in an energetic setting. The concept celebrates two sides of the dining experience: ‘Saints’ represent lighter choices, while ‘Sinners’ embrace indulgent, unapologetic flavours. This duality is reflected in both the menu and the outlet’s distinctive design.
The India menu brings together Burgertory’s Australian roots with flavours tailored to local preferences. From the Seoul Smasher, Chipotle Stack and Fajita Fusion to the Burn to Hell, Moroccan Flame and British Lion, the range features distinctive flavour combinations. Indian-inspired offerings such as Rogan Romance, Paneer Thecha, Tandoori Peri Peri Chicken and Kerala Fried Chicken add a local touch, while the Mumbai Slyder brings a city-inspired option to the menu. The offering extends beyond burgers to include wings, loaded fries, Cheese Bomb Bites, wraps, platters and desserts, alongside cocktails, beer and milkshakes. Vegetarian options include Golden Spud, Tofu Thunder, Mushroom King Portobello and Garden Glory. With sauces prepared in-house using distinctive spice blends and meat patties marinated in-house, freshness and flavour remain central to the brand’s approach.
Commenting on the launch, Tarun Sachdeva, CEO, Burgertory India Expansion, said, “Expanding an international brand into a new market is about understanding local consumer preferences while staying true to what makes the brand distinctive. India presents an opportunity for Burgertory to bring its Australian-born burger culture to a diverse and evolving dining landscape. Our approach is to build the brand with a long-term perspective, adapting to regional tastes while maintaining the core philosophy that defines Burgertory. We see the India launch as the beginning of a journey focused on creating a recognisable brand and an experience that goes beyond the menu.”
Charanjeet Mahedu, Master Franchisee, Maharashtra & Goa, Burgertory, added, “Burgertory was born out of a simple belief that a great burger starts with freshness, quality ingredients and flavours that stand out. Bringing the brand to India is an opportunity to introduce our Australian burger culture while creating an experience that resonates with Indian consumers. We have stayed true to our core philosophy while developing a menu that brings together bold flavours, distinctive combinations and local favourites. Mumbai, with its vibrant food culture and openness to new experiences, felt like the natural place to begin this journey. With Burgertory, we want to offer people more than just a great burger, we want to create a space where food, drinks, music and good company come together.”
Mumbai was chosen as the starting point for Burgertory’s India journey for its diverse food culture, vibrant nightlife and openness to new experiences. The brand’s launch celebration brought its ‘Saints vs Sinners’ identity to life through music, games and Burgertory specials. With a vision to build a recognisable Australian-born burger brand in India, Burgertory aims to grow steadily while remaining responsive to regional tastes and preferences, creating a culture around burgers, drinks, music and shared experiences.

GRI selects food and beverages as pilot for new approach to sector reporting
Experts sought to help shape a new Sector Standard, through a faster model for delivering industry-specific impact reporting guidance
Amsterdam, Sept 28 – GRI, provider of the world’s most widely used sustainability reporting standards, is starting development of a new Sector Standard for food and beverage companies, designed to strengthen reporting on the impacts that matter most across the industry and its value chains.
The project will be the first to pilot a streamlined approach to GRI Sector Standards development, responding to growing demand for authoritative sector-specific disclosure guidance. To inform the development of the Food & Beverages Standard, GRI is seeking up to 20 sector experts from around the world to join a multi-stakeholder Peer Review Group.
The new approach is designed to significantly reduce the time needed to develop Sector Standards, while retaining GRI’s established multistakeholder due process. The more focused format will identify topics that are likely to be material for organizations in the sector, summarize their most significant impacts, and direct organizations to relevant existing GRI Topic Standards.
Food and beverage has been selected as the first pilot sector given the scale and breadth of its sustainability impacts. The project will consider impacts across companies’ own operations and value chains, including connections with agriculture, aquaculture, and fishing.

Peter Dawkins, GRI Standards Senior Manager, said:
“The food and beverage sector touches almost every part of society, while its value chains are closely connected with some of the most pressing sustainability challenges we face. From climate change and biodiversity loss to working conditions and public health, companies need to understand and transparently report their impacts.
This new GRI Sector Standard will provide focused guidance on the issues that matter most, helping companies deliver more consistent reporting, and the information needed for decision making that improves sustainability performance and business resilience.
“As the first pilot for a more streamlined approach, we need input from the sector and its stakeholders. I encourage those with relevant expertise to get involved and help us ensure the Standard is practical, credible, and reflects the realities of this global industry.”
Applications for the Peer Review Group are open until 23 October 2026.

ISO and UNDP launch world’s first International Standard to advance action on the Sustainable Development Goals
Paris, France, 28 September 2026 – ISO and UNDP today launched ISO/UNDP 53001, Management systems for the United Nations Sustainable Development Goals (SDGs) – Requirements, live from the first day of the ISO Annual Meeting. The new standard is the world’s first International Standard providing organizations with a structured management system to integrate the SDGs into strategy, governance and operations.
As governments, businesses and institutions face growing expectations to demonstrate meaningful progress on sustainable development, ISO/UNDP 53001 provides a globally agreed approach to help organizations move beyond commitment towards measurable implementation and continual improvement.
ISO/UNDP 53001, for the first time, provides concrete tools to enable organizations to identify priorities, establish objectives, integrate them into existing processes and measure performance over time. As a requirements-based management system standard, it provides a consistent basis for demonstrating that an organization’s approach meets defined requirements, strengthening accountability and confidence in the actions taken.
The launch comes at a moment when the way national development priorities are financed and delivered is changing rapidly. With public development resources under increasing pressure and the scale of sustainable development needs far exceeding what public finance alone can meet, businesses and private investment will play an increasingly important role in advancing national and global development priorities. This makes credible, internationally recognized systems for translating sustainability commitments into business practice more important than ever.
ISO/UNDP 53001 provides a foundation for that emerging architecture. By giving organizations a common framework to integrate sustainable development priorities into governance, strategy, operations and decision-making, the standard can help businesses strengthen sustainability management while giving governments, investors, development institutions and other stakeholders greater confidence in how commitments are implemented and measured.
ISO Secretary-General Sergio Mujica said the launch represents an important step in supporting organizations to make measurable progress towards the SDGs.
“The SDGs have provided a shared global vision for a decade. Today, organizations are looking for concrete ways to translate that vision into action,” Mr Mujica said.
“International Standards have long helped organizations address complex global challenges by providing a common language and a shared framework for action. We are delighted to launch ISO/UNDP 53001 today, extending this proven approach to the SDGs and helping organizations create positive impact for people and planet.”
UNDP identified ISO as its international standards development partner for the initiative, bringing together UNDP’s expertise in sustainable development with ISO’s global standardization system and network of national standards bodies.
Marcos Neto, UN Assistant Secretary-General and Director of UNDP’s Bureau for Policy and Programme Support stated that achieving the SDGs will depend on organizations of every kind playing an active role in advancing sustainable development.
“The SDGs provide a shared blueprint for a more inclusive and prosperous future. Achieving that requires organizations everywhere to turn ambition into action,” Mr Neto said.
“We are proud to launch ISO/UNDP 53001 alongside ISO as a crucial tool to help organizations embed the SDGs into the way they operate, lead and govern. By making sustainability part of everyday decision-making, the standard can help accelerate progress towards the 2030 Agenda.”
Jens Heiede, Chief Executive Officer of Danish Standards, said developing the world’s first International Standard dedicated to the SDGs required international collaboration to build consensus across a broad range of sectors and perspectives.
“Creating a standard that could be applied by organizations of every size, sector and geography required extensive collaboration between experts from around the world. Together, we developed a practical and internationally agreed set of requirements that organizations can apply with confidence,” Mr Heiede said.
“It has been a privilege for Danish Standards to lead the technical committee behind ISO/UNDP 53001. We look forward to seeing organizations use the standard to demonstrate accountability and deliver meaningful sustainability outcomes.”
Through ISO’s network of national standards bodies, ISO/UNDP 53001 could support greater consistency across countries and economies. It offers organizations, governments and policymakers a common reference point for translating sustainable development priorities into measurable action.
The new standard integrates smoothly with other management system standards, such as ISO 9001 for quality management and ISO 14001 for environmental management. By building on existing processes, organizations can reduce duplication, improve efficiency and take a more coherent approach to managing risks, meeting commitments and achieving strategic objectives.
The standard is intended for businesses, governments, educational institutions, civil society organizations and other organizations seeking to align their activities with the SDGs. Its flexible approach enables users to focus on the SDGs most relevant to their purpose, context and stakeholders.
ISO/UNDP 53001 is designed to provide long-term value by supporting the current SDGs and any subsequent global goals that supersede the 2030 Agenda. Like all ISO International Standards, it will undergo ISO’s regular systematic review process to help ensure it remains relevant, fit for purpose and responsive to evolving international priorities and best practice.
ISO and UNDP intend to work with partners across the multilateral system to support its implementation, including through sector-specific guidance that can connect global development priorities with the realities of different industries and markets.
The launch of ISO/UNDP 53001 is a key feature of the ISO Annual Meeting, hosted by AFNOR in Paris, France, from 28 September to 2 October 2026. Under the theme Building trust in a changing world, the Annual Meeting is bringing together global leaders, policymakers and standards experts to explore the role of International Standards in addressing the world’s most pressing challenges.

ISO/UNDP 53001 is available at https://www.iso.org/standard/

Virat Kohli Breaks Sachin Tendulkar’s ODI Records, Becomes Fastest to 15,000 Runs and Hits 55th Century
Thiruvananthapuram, Sept. 28: Virat Kohli once again etched his name into the record books with a stunning performance against the West Indies in the first ODI. His unbeaten 139 not only powered India to an eight-wicket victory but also saw him break two major ODI records previously held by legendary batter Sachin Tendulkar.
Representational Image
Kohli Reaches 15,000 ODI Runs in Just 303 Innings
Kohli became only the second batter in ODI history to reach 15,000 runs, joining Sachin Tendulkar in the elite club.
What makes the achievement even more remarkable is the speed at which Kohli reached the milestone. He completed 15,000 ODI runs in just 303 innings, breaking Tendulkar’s previous record of 377 innings.
Kohli therefore reached the landmark 74 innings faster than Tendulkar.
More Than 7,000 ODI Runs on Home Soil
Kohli’s unbeaten 139 also helped him surpass another major Tendulkar record — the most ODI runs scored in India.
Tendulkar had accumulated 6,976 ODI runs in India. Kohli went past that mark during his memorable innings and became the first batter to cross the 7,000-run mark in ODIs on Indian soil.
55th ODI Century
The record-breaking performance was capped by another major milestone.
Kohli’s unbeaten 139 brought up his 55th ODI century, further extending his record for the most ODI centuries in men’s cricket.
Three major milestones in one memorable innings — 15,000 ODI runs, more than 7,000 ODI runs in India, and a 55th ODI century.
While India secured an eight-wicket victory over the West Indies, Kohli’s unbeaten 139 emerged as the defining highlight of the match, adding another remarkable chapter to his illustrious ODI career.

New Livestock Insurance Portal to Strengthen Financial Protection for Farmers
Pic Credit: Pexel
New Delhi, Sep 28: The Centre is set to launch a new Livestock Insurance Portal to make insurance services easier to access and manage for livestock farmers, while providing stronger financial protection against losses of insured animals.
Union Minister for Fisheries, Animal Husbandry and Dairying Rajiv Ranjan Singh will launch the portal in New Delhi. Developed by the Department of Animal Husbandry and Dairying, the digital platform is aimed at bringing livestock insurance services onto a single, transparent and technology-driven system.
The portal will bring key services such as policy registration, insurance issuance, claim processing, monitoring and reporting together on one platform. This is expected to simplify procedures, reduce paperwork and improve coordination among farmers, insurance agencies and government authorities.
Making Insurance Easier for Farmers
One of the key objectives of the initiative is to improve access to insurance, particularly for small and marginal farmers who depend heavily on livestock for household income.
The portal will be available in Hindi, English and 11 regional languages, making it easier for farmers to understand insurance provisions, access services and track their applications and claims.
For farmers, livestock insurance can provide an important financial safety net. The loss of cattle or other insured animals can significantly affect household income, particularly for families that depend on dairy farming and livestock-related activities. Faster and more transparent claim processing can help reduce the financial pressure caused by such losses.
Supporting Rural Livelihoods
Under the existing Livestock Insurance framework, beneficiaries contribute 15 per cent of the insurance premium, while the Centre and state governments jointly bear the remaining 85 per cent.
Subsidised insurance coverage is available for up to 10 cattle units per beneficiary household for most eligible animals, with separate limits for pigs and rabbits.
Government data shows that 60.8 lakh animals were insured during the latest five-year reference period, while ₹161.07 crore was released under the scheme.
The new digital platform is expected to make such support easier to administer and reach eligible beneficiaries more efficiently.
Greater Transparency in Claims
Another important objective is to improve the monitoring of insurance policies and claims. By shifting major processes to a common digital platform, the government expects to improve visibility over applications, policy status and claim settlements.
Real-time data can also help authorities identify delays, monitor implementation and take corrective action where necessary. Better data management could support more informed policymaking and improve the delivery of livestock-related programmes.
The government is also exploring the use of radio-frequency identification technology for animal identification. Such technology could help improve record-keeping and make verification during insurance claims more efficient.
Wider Economic Impact
The initiative could have an impact beyond insurance administration. Livestock is an important source of income for millions of rural households and contributes to India’s dairy, meat and other allied sectors.
Greater access to affordable insurance can reduce the financial risks associated with livestock ownership and provide farmers with greater confidence to maintain or expand their animal holdings.
A stronger insurance system can also support the broader rural economy by helping protect household incomes when livestock losses occur. This, in turn, can support spending on animal feed, veterinary services, dairy activities and other rural businesses linked to the livestock value chain.
For the government, the digital platform could improve institutional efficiency by bringing information and monitoring systems together. For farmers, the larger objective is simpler access to insurance, better information and a more transparent process for receiving support.
The launch of the Livestock Insurance Portal therefore marks a step towards technology-enabled risk protection for livestock farmers, with the potential to strengthen rural livelihoods while improving the efficiency and reach of government-supported insurance services.

6,000 plus Bengalureans Come Together Ahead of World Heart Day to Support Surgery for 50 Underprivileged Children

Bengaluru, September 28, 2026: More than 6,000 Bengalureans’ came together in Electronic City this morning to run, walk and cycle as part of the sixth edition of Kauvery BEATS, the annual community heart-health initiative of Kauvery Hospitals, Bengaluru. held ahead of World Heart Day on September 29.
The 5 km event brought together children, families, working professionals, recreational runners, cyclists and fitness enthusiasts, with participants encouraged to move at their own pace rather than compete for timings. In one of the morning’s most striking moments, participants came together to create a large human-heart formation, turning the gathering into a visual expression of collective responsibility towards heart health.
The event was flagged off in the presence of Dr B. Dinesh, Director and Professor of Cardiology, Sri Jayadeva Institute of Cardiovascular Sciences and Research, and Sri Narayana M, IPS, Deputy Commissioner of Police, Electronic City Division, Bengaluru.
Speaking at the event, Dr B. Dinesh said “Physical activity remains fundamental to cardiovascular health, but prevention cannot begin only when symptoms appear. People should also know their blood pressure, blood sugar and cholesterol, understand their family history and seek medical advice when risk factors are present. Community initiatives such as this help make heart health part of everyday conversation.”
The 2026 edition of BEATS focused on consistency in heart-healthy behaviour, encouraging people to stay physically active while also paying greater attention to cardiovascular risk factors.
Dr Vivek G, Director, Institute of Cardiology, Kauvery Hospitals, Electronic City, said “What makes this initiative meaningful is that it goes beyond bringing people together for a morning of fitness. Through Kauvery Sankalpa 2.0, the community also has an opportunity to support children who need specialised surgery but may not have the means to access it. Bringing together 6,000-plus people for heart health, while creating awareness and support for 50 children in need of surgery, shows how collective community action can make a meaningful difference.”
Moving for a larger purpose
This year, Kauvery BEATS also carried a larger social-impact message through Kauvery Sankalpa 2.0, an initiative aimed at enabling surgical care for 50 children from economically disadvantaged families in Karnataka. The programme aims to support 25 children requiring surgery for congenital heart conditions and 25 children requiring complex spine surgery, subject to clinical and socioeconomic eligibility.
Participants and supporters at BEATS were given the opportunity to make voluntary contributions towards the congenital-heart-surgery initiative, allowing the World Heart Day campaign to connect the message of heart health with the need for access to specialised cardiac care.
Six years of a growing community movement
Kauvery BEATS began in 2021 with around 600 participants and has grown steadily over six editions, crossing 1,200 participants in 2022, 2,800 in 2023, 3,500 in 2024 and more than 5,000 in 2025. Last year’s event similarly used mass participation and a human-heart formation to build awareness around cardiac health.
The 2026 campaign continues October 2 with Kauvery BEATS Circuit, a new functional-fitness format aimed at regular gym-goers, runners, cyclists and fitness enthusiasts. The format will combine short running intervals with functional exercises, extending the campaign’s message from community participation to fitness and cardiovascular-risk awareness.
