Musical Dance Drama ‘Antrangini’ shows an untouched aspect of Radha-Krishna’s love
*Antrangini directed by Kajal Suri & written by Dr Neelam Verma will be staged on
-Sunday 26th May at 6pm,
in Shri Ram Centre, Mandi House,
New Delhi
The total duration of this Musical Dance Drama presented by RobrooTheater Group in Hindi and Awadhi is 1 hour 30 minutes.
Written by Dr Neelam Verma, the eternal love of Radha-Krishna is portrayed by the writer Dr Neelam Verma in a new light. Krishna comes to meet his Antrangini, Radha for the last time after the Battle of Mahabharat. What compels Krishna to come to Radha once again? Why was Radha impatient to meet her Krishna once again? The composition explores the purpose and relevance of their reunion.
Radha is Krishna’s contemporary. She must have been aware of what all happened after Krishna moved from Vrindavan to Mathura and then to Dwarka. After the devastating Battle of Mahabharat, she must have been desperate to meet him and reassure him in her own way.
On the other hand, though seperated from Radha for a long period, who else could Krishna confide in to express his inner turmoil?
This play strengthens the justification that Radha was truly Krishna’s love and inspiration….his Antrangini!
Besides the love between Radha & Krishna, there is a sensitive take on Yashoda’s motherhood and her concern for her foster son whom she had nurtured with utmost care and affection.
Antrangini is a yet unexplored expression of the mystical love between Radha and Krishna.
The Musical Dance Drama is presented under the meticulous Design and Direction by Kajal Suri.

Indian Family Doctors at the Forefront of Planetary Health Advocacy on World Family Doctor Day 2024
New Delhi, India, May 21, 2024: As the world grapples with the interwoven challenges of climate change, pollution, and health disparities, Indian family doctors are stepping up as champions of planetary health. On World Family Doctor Day 2024, celebrated under the theme ‘Healthy Planet, Healthy People,‘ the spotlight is on the critical role of family doctors in addressing the health impacts of environmental changes. Organized by the Academy of Family Physicians of India (AFPI) Delhi Chapter in association with Maharaja Agrasen Hospital, Punjabi Bagh, Delhi, the event highlighted the pivotal role of family doctors as the cornerstone of primary healthcare.
Dr. Raman Kumar, President of AFPI, highlights, “Family doctors are on the frontline, witnessing the health effects of environmental changes firsthand. Their role goes beyond treating illnesses; they are advocates for sustainable living and environmental stewardship. According to recent statistics, the Earth’s natural systems are under immense strain, with climate change alone contributing to a rise in communicable and non-communicable diseases.”
During the inauguration of the event, Dr. Subhash Gupta, Chairman of Maharaja Agrasen Hospital Trust, during the event’s inauguration, said, “In an era where super specialization dominates healthcare, we must recognize the invaluable role of family doctors. Your family doctor provides trusted guidance, ensuring you receive the right care at the right time. This sentiment aligns with a growing national trend.”
Dr. Sunil Massand, a leading family doctor, emphasizes, “The healthcare sector is a significant contributor to carbon emissions. Family doctors, through preventive care and lifestyle interventions, play a pivotal role in reducing the need for resource-intensive medical treatments, thereby lowering emissions.”
The conference featured interactive workshops and panel sessions focusing on the latest trends in family medicine and primary care. Family doctors are at the forefront, witnessing the health consequences of climate change firsthand. From the surge in respiratory illnesses due to pollution to the spread of vector-borne diseases with changing climates, their observations are vital in understanding and combating these environmental health threats.
Dr. Vandana Boobna, the event organizer, expressed, “World Family Doctor Day is not just a celebration; it’s a reaffirmation of our commitment to providing holistic and sustainable healthcare. As we navigate the complexities of modern healthcare, family doctors remain the bedrock of our health systems.”
As the world commemorates World Family Doctor Day 2024, it is a reminder of the invaluable contributions of family doctors in promoting health, preventing diseases, and fostering healthy communities. Their dedication to patient care, combined with their advocacy for planetary health, embodies the spirit of this year’s theme, ‘Healthy Planet, Healthy People.’
The AFPI Delhi Chapter’s World Family Doctor Day conference served as a timely reminder that family doctors are the backbone of a healthy nation. As India grapples with a rising burden of chronic diseases and the challenges of climate change, a robust primary care system with family doctors at its core is more crucial than ever.

Road safety education at schools and colleges is not only to create awareness but to inculcate a safety culture in young minds and turn them into safety ambassadors. It empowers future generations to become responsible and significantly contribute to a safer society.

JAGSoM Awarded Breakthrough Patent for Real-Time Credit Rating Prediction System
Bengaluru, 21st May 2024 –Jagdish Sheth School of Management (JAGSoM) today announced that the Indian Patent Office has granted Patent No. 528993 for its innovative technology that tracks and predicts changes in corporate credit ratings in real-time. This rare achievement highlights JAGSoM’s leadership in developing solutions that reshape the financial industry.
The technology behind the patent allows companies and financial institutions to track future changes in a company’s credit rating in real-time or creditworthiness in real time–whether it’s getting better (upgrade) or worse (downgrade). Building such a technological patent into credit rating systems can allow financial leaders and decision-makers to gain creditworthiness insights very quickly, almost as a company’s financial situation changes.
This cutting-edge system is designed to revolutionize the way financial institutions and investors assess credit risk. Unlike traditional credit rating models, JAGSoM’s patented technology incorporates not only a company’s financial data but also analyzes real-time news and sentiment analysis to forecast rating changes every quarter rolling window with up to 90% accuracy. This gives lenders and investors a significant advantage in decision-making and risk mitigation.
The patent is the culmination of eight years of development by renowned JAGSoM professors, Prof. S. Chandrasekhar and Prof. Moovendhan. Dr. Chandrasekhar possesses nearly 50 years of experience in academia and industry, with expertise in machine learning and predictive analytics. Dr. Moovendhan, with over 25 years of experience, specializes in strategic management and data analysis.
Key Benefits of the Patented System
This patented system offers significant advantages to the financial sector. Lenders can make proactive decisions about loan portfolios, reducing potential losses. Investors use an early warning system to identify potential credit-related risks and opportunities, allowing for faster, more informed decisions. The technology enhances portfolio optimization, enabling diversification across varied asset classes and spreading risk more effectively.
Current credit rating models often rely heavily on financial data and are updated less frequently. JAGSoM’s patented system addresses this by analyzing real-time company news and sentiment, providing investors and lenders with a faster and more dynamic understanding of potential credit risks. This innovative approach reduces delays in information and allows for more proactive decision-making.
This technology also offers significant advancements in risk management for financial institutions. By providing early warning signals and more accurate predictions of loan defaults, banks, and other lenders can proactively improve their portfolios and minimize potential losses. This tool also aids in diversifying investment portfolios, reducing overall risk exposure.
Commercializing Innovation
JAGSoM plans to commercialize this breakthrough technology. Their vision includes building a secure, user-friendly platform that will help financial institutions harness the power of predictive credit rating analysis.
“JAGSoM has plans to commercialize the invention of this patent which will help the Financial Institutions in proactive risk management and optimization of portfolio returns with least expected risks. GSOM is very keen on developing the platform to showcase the potential of patent commercialization. This will be hosted on a secure platform with a highly friendly user interface,” said Dr S.CHANDRASEKHAR, Senior Professor of Digital Business and Analytics in a statement.
