Don Bosco Alumni Liluah Hosts REUNION 2026, Celebrating a Century of Salesian Legacy and Women Achievers

Kolkata, Jan 29: Don Bosco Alumni Liluah (DBL) organized REUNION 2026 – Back to School, a grand homecoming event at the Don Bosco School, Liluah campus, bringing together alumni from the batch of 1970 to the present. The event celebrated nostalgia, fellowship, and the enduring values of the Salesian mission.

Addressing the gathering, the President of DBL highlighted that Reunion 2026 was dedicated to 100 years of Salesian presence in Kolkata. On 11 November 1925, three Salesian priests arrived at Howrah Station, carrying Don Bosco’s vision—a mission that has since transformed thousands of lives through education and social service.

The sprawling Liluah campus warmly welcomed alumni, many of whom travelled from across India and abroad, rekindling memories with former classmates and teachers.

Empowering Women 2026 and DBL Achievers’ Awards

As part of the celebrations and continuing the Adult Literacy Project initiated in 1961, a panel discussion on “Empowering Women 2026” was conducted. Mentored by alumnus and film producer Mr Amit Agarwal, the session featured eminent personalities including Mr Ashoke Vishwanathan (Moderator), Dr Shyamal Samanta, IPS, Ms Smita Roy Chowdhury, Ms Manoshi Roy Chowdhury, Ms Ekavalli Khanna, Ms Mamta Binani, Ms Kanak Lata Datta, and Ms Richa Sharma.

The event also marked the launch of the first-ever DBL Achievers’ Awards 2026, recognizing distinguished alumni—particularly women—who have excelled in their fields. Women awardees included:

• Manoshi Roy Chowdhury (Education)

• Smita Roy Chowdhury (Media)

• Mamta Binani (Corporate)

• Dola Banerji (Sports)

• Kanak Lata Datta (Fashion & Lifestyle)

• Ekavalli Khanna (Film & Entertainment)

• Dr Rupali Basu (Healthcare)

• Tarrunum Malik Jain (Music)

• Richa Sharma (Fashion & Lifestyle)

• Sangeeta Maheshwari (Social Service)

Men achievers included Dr Shyamal Samanta (Public Service), Ashoke Vishwanathan, and Amit Agarwal (Film & Entertainment). Amit Agarwal became the first alumnus to receive the DBL Achievers’ Award in its inaugural edition.

Additionally, past pupil doctors and chartered accountants were felicitated for their professional contributions under the “Recognising Alumni 2026” session.

Speaking on the occasion, Mr Biswanath Trivedi expressed gratitude to Amit Agarwal (Batch of 1993) for his support in organising the reunion. “When we approached Amit to recognise his achievements, he suggested we also honour women achievers. This idea was embraced by the committee and has now become one of the most impactful elements in the history of DBL reunions,” said Biswanath. He also announced the formation of profession-based alumni groups to foster collaboration, business opportunities, and employment support.

Alumni shared heartfelt reflections: Avinash Agarwal (1995 ISC Batch), who travelled from Birmingham, UK, said, “I feel rejuvenated returning to my alma mater after 30 years. I’ll take back memories and motivation, and hope to return every year.”

Amit Agarwal, emotional on receiving the DBL Achievers’ Award, recalled his school days and shared, “This recognition motivates me to continue performing at my best. My favourite spots remain the auditorium stairs and the church, where I spent countless hours with friends.”

Fr Sanjay Manohar Kujur, Rector Principal, welcomed the guests and reaffirmed the Salesian commitment to uplifting women and youth from marginalized communities. Rev Fr Joseph Pauria, Provincial of the Kolkata Province of the Salesians of Don Bosco, lauded the alumni’s sustained social initiatives, particularly Free Medical Camps and the Adult Literacy Project.

The evening concluded with a live orchestra and a sumptuous dinner, as alumni departed with the promise of returning “Back to School” next year.

Rebounce App Attracts 20K Users in First Month of Launch

India’s first-of-its-kind matchmaking and matrimony app for second chances, Rebounce, specially built for divorced, separated, and widowed individuals, was launched in September, 2025. The app crossed 20k users in little over a month of its launch, reflecting a shift in how Indians are approaching love, remarriage, and second chances.

Rebounce’s Founder and CEO, Ravi Mittal, said,

“Seeking love after divorce or considering remarriage after loss is slowly moving away from being a taboo to a conscious and hopeful next step. The early traction of our app clearly shows that Indians are no longer stuck in the failed marriage narrative. The new generation believes in continuing to live a full and happy life, and giving love a second chance is a huge part of it.”

Casual swipes are out, high intent is in

Rebounce’s user data shows that over 53% men and 64.6% of women on the app are actively looking for marriage, not merely exploring or seeking casual dates. The data clearly indicates that second chances are pursued with more intent and purpose.

The typical age of the app’s users is early 30s, and they are noted to be more emotionally mature, seeking long-term stability, and most of them are presently navigating or dealing with the aftermath of a serious life event, such as divorce or loss of a loved one. On average, women seeking second chances are around 35 and men 31, debunking the myth that remarriage is a later-life decision and is only pursued for companionship, not romance. Data from the app also show that 8 out of 10 users are specifically looking for love, not just a marriage of convenience or company for old age.

Single parents looking for commitment

Rebounce’s consumer data provides a telling insight into the mindset of single parents. 55% of single fathers and 68% of single mothers are looking for marriage-led relationships on the app. It especially emphasizes Rebounce’s family-aware and emotionally responsible matchmaking.

Compatibility, not stigma

The data shows an interesting trend: users are not rigid about their match’s marital history, signalling a notable shift toward compatibility-first relationships and remarriages, where emotional alignment, values, and clarity matter more than labels. Even something as simple as travel compatibility is prioritized over the past experience of a match, with the numbers showing over 57% of men considering travel compatibility an important factor, and only less than 9% taking marital history into consideration while looking for the right match. The numbers also prove that users are serious about a future together.

More than success, it’s a change in mindset

Rebounce’s early success is not about the numbers; it reflects a positive shift in people’s mindset. Divorce is no longer the end, and the steady 20k signups are proof. The app shared that users look at divorce or separation as a mere pause before a better beginning.

When it comes to users seeking long-term relationships, the finding is intriguing. Men with 22.2% are more interested in an exclusive, long-term relationship than women with 16.1%. Users, men and women alike, are noted to be displaying relationship and partner-seeking patterns that stem from more clarity, lived experience, and courage to restart.

Cathay Cargo returns to fly elite equine athletes to Hong Kong’s premier international showjumping event

Jan 29: Cathay Cargo has successfully transported approximately 60 elite showjumping horses from Europe to Hong Kong for the Longines Hong Kong International Horse Show, scheduled to take place at AsiaWorld-Expo from 30 January to 1 February 2026.

Building on the success of last year’s event, Cathay Cargo’s specialist teams executed a highly coordinated logistics operation to transport the equine athletes on a 12-hour journey from Liège, Belgium—a central European hub with a well-equipped cargo airport and stabling facilities—to Hong Kong International Airport. The horses travelled aboard a chartered Boeing 747 freighter, whose spacious main deck and temperature-controlled environment provide optimal conditions for safe and comfortable long-haul transport, ensuring the horses arrive calm, healthy, and competition-ready.

Commenting on the operation, Dominic Perret, Director Cargo, Cathay, said: “Transporting world-class equine athletes is both a privilege and a significant responsibility. We understand the pressures riders and owners face ahead of elite competition, which is why our focus is to eliminate travel as a source of stress. Our proven expertise in live animal logistics has driven year-on-year growth in this segment, and supporting an event of this calibre further reinforces our position as a trusted partner for high-stakes animal transport.”

Reimagining the live animal transport experience

As global demand for live animal cargo continues to grow, Cathay Cargo’s approach extends beyond transportation alone. Its Live Animal solution is anchored in three core principles:

• Creature comfort: IATA-compliant travel stalls ensure adequate space, ventilation, and safety.

• Charting the right path: Optimised routing minimises stops and transit time, reducing stress for the animals.

• Flying with trust: Industry-leading IATA CEIV Live Animals certification ensures the highest standards of animal welfare.

Each flight is supported by dedicated human expertise. The horses benefit from priority ground handling and slow-speed tarmac transfers. During the flight, CEIV-certified crew continuously monitor and adjust cargo-hold temperature and airflow, while professional grooms accompany the horses throughout the journey, providing hands-on care and constant supervision.

Jo Peck, Event Director at HPower International, said:

“For an international event of this scale, the stakes are exceptionally high. There is no room for uncertainty when transporting elite equine athletes. That’s why we are delighted to partner with Cathay Cargo for the second consecutive year. Their meticulous care, deep understanding of horses, and world-class cargo discipline provide invaluable assurance, allowing riders and organisers to focus entirely on delivering a successful event.”

Cathay Cargo is the first airline in Asia to achieve IATA’s CEIV Live Animals certification, reflecting its deep expertise in managing complex, high-value animal shipments across multiple species.

The successful delivery of these elite showjumping horses once again underscores Cathay Cargo’s leadership in live animal logistics and its continued partnership with one of Asia’s most anticipated international equestrian events.

CMD, IREDA Calls for Integrated Energy Transition at India Energy Week 2026

Shri Pradip Kumar Das, Chairman & Managing Director, Indian Renewable Energy Development Agency Ltd. (IREDA), participated in a high-level roundtable on “Net Zero Emissions: Environmental, Economic and Social Implications – Role of Oil and Biofuels in the Transition” at India Energy Week 2026 in Goa.

Highlighting India’s rapid progress in clean energy, Shri Das noted that the parallel scaling of renewable energy and alternative low-carbon fuels is already delivering tangible outcomes. Initiatives such as ethanol blending are reducing import dependence, lowering emissions, and enhancing energy security, collectively steering the country towards a Viksit Bharat. He emphasised that this integrated approach is aligned with India’s development-first pathway to achieving Net Zero by 2070 and its commitment to install 500 GW of non-fossil fuel capacity by 2030. With India’s per capita electricity consumption still less than one-third of the global average, he stressed the importance of a phased, realistic, and growth-oriented energy transition.

Shri Das further underscored that oil and gas will continue to play a critical transitional role across transport, petrochemicals, and industry, ensuring energy security and price stability. He added that biofuels offer a scalable decarbonisation pathway by leveraging existing infrastructure while simultaneously supporting rural livelihoods.

He also highlighted that India’s clean energy expansion represents one of the largest nation-building opportunities globally, generating significant demand for engineers, financiers, data specialists, and project managers. A just, affordable transition—supported by reskilling initiatives and strong domestic manufacturing—will be essential to maximise social and economic benefits.

Concluding his address, Shri Das stated,

“Oil, gas and biofuels are not obstacles but enablers of a systematic transition. IREDA remains committed to ensuring that India’s climate ambitions are supported by accessible and affordable green finance.”

In addition, the CMD, IREDA, contributed to the CEO Roundtable on “Global Green Hydrogen and its Derivatives Offtake,” where he emphasised that scalable financing mechanisms and coordinated policy support are critical to accelerating the development of India’s green hydrogen and green ammonia markets. He noted that speed and skill, backed by strong policy frameworks, can position India not only as a major manufacturing hub for green hydrogen but also as a significant global export hub.

Swiggy Now Lets You Order Food, Dineout, and Shop on Instamart Directly Inside ChatGPT and Claude

Swiggy Ltd India’s leading on-demand convenience platform, today announced a major leap in conversational commerce with the launch of Model Context Protocol (MCP) integrations across various business verticals. This rollout, covering Swiggy Food, Instamart, and Dineout, enables users to order groceries, place food orders, and make dining reservations directly through popular AI tools such as ChatGPT, Claude, Google Gemini and others.

With this launch, Instamart becomes the first quick-commerce platform globally to adopt MCP, allowing users to browse and purchase from an assortment of over 40,000 SKUs using simple, natural language prompts.

The Shift to Agentic AI in Commerce

The Model Context Protocol (MCP) is an open-source framework that connects AI systems and chatbots to live data, sources, and services, allowing them to interact securely with external applications. By exposing a secure set of tools via MCP servers, Swiggy allows AI agents to perform complex tasks that previously required navigating multiple app screens. Users can bypass traditional app interfaces and issue intent-based commands. For example, a user can simply type: “Order ingredients needed for Thai green curry.” or “Order a highly rated biryani I would love.”

The AI agent then handles the entire process: searching for products or restaurants, comparing options, building and updating the cart, applying the best offers or coupons, getting addresses, placing the order, and even tracking delivery. It can also retrieve available booking time slots for a specific restaurant and book a table by creating a cart, applying offers, and confirming the booking in a single prompt.

As users grow more AI-native, increasingly relying on conversational interfaces for planning and decision-making, Swiggy’s integration reflects this shift from static app navigation to dynamic, conversational commerce. This “agentic AI flow” significantly reduces friction by allowing the large language models to handle brand comparisons, quantity selection, and checkout details. The result is a simpler, faster, and more personalized shopping experience that lets users express their intent once and leave it on AI to handle the rest.

Madhusudhan Rao, Chief Technology Officer, Swiggy, said, “India’s convenience needs are deeply contextual, shaped by everyday moments, family routines, personal preferences, and time constraints. Swiggy has always focused on solving for convenience at scale, and conversational commerce takes that a step further by allowing users to simply express what they want, when they want it, whether it is to book a table at their favourite restaurant or order drinks and snacks for a match-viewing party. By bringing MCP to quick commerce, food delivery, and dining out, we’re removing friction from daily decisions and enabling a level of ease, personalisation, and joy that makes on-demand convenience feel effortless.”

Swiggy’s MCP launch builds the foundation for future AI-led experiences, where intelligent agents can act contextually across use cases like meal planning, health goals, dietary preferences, and occasion-based shopping, while remaining privacy-first and secure. In practice, this means users can ask an AI assistant to discover a recipe, identify the right ingredients for four people and add them to their Instamart cart before checking out, build and order a keto or vegan shopping list, compare brands and prices for everyday household staples, or search restaurants and menus, apply relevant offers and book a dine-in table, all through a single, conversational interaction.

How this works

Users can connect the service with AI assistants such as Claude, Gemini, ChatGPT, Cursor, or any agent of their choice in just a few simple steps:

1. Navigate to Settings → Connectors → Add Custom Connector/App
2. Enter a Name for your connector
3. Provide the URL for the service you want to integrate

Kaynes Semicon Secures Fiscal Support Agreement Under India Semiconductor Mission

Kaynes Semicon executes Fiscal Support Agreement and all other Transaction Documents Required to Receive Fiscal Support under India Semiconductor Mission Framework

Bangalore, Jan 28 :   Kaynes Semicon Private Limited (“Kaynes Semicon”), a wholly-owned subsidiary of Kaynes Technology India Limited, today announced the execution of its Fiscal Support Agreement and all other Transaction Documents with the India Semiconductor Mission (ISM), Government of India, under the policy framework established to develop semiconductor manufacturing capability in the country.

The signing of the Fiscal Support Agreement and all other Transaction Documents Required marks an important procedural milestone in the implementation of eligible fiscal support as notified under the scheme guidelines, and is a reflection of the Government of India’s sustained commitment to the success of the India Semiconductor Mission. For Kaynes Semicon, this underscores our resolve to operate with the highest levels of governance, transparency and compliance as we scale our semiconductor initiatives. We are deeply committed to playing a leadership role — both in execution and in shaping India’s semiconductor manufacturing capability — in alignment with the country’s long-term strategic objectives.

Shri Amitesh Kumar Sinha, CEO, ISM, added:

“The execution of the Fiscal Support Agreement and other Transaction Documents mark an important milestone for the project and we look forward to continued progress in line with the Mission’s objectives.”

Commenting on the development, Mr. Raghu Panicker, CEO, Kaynes Semicon, said:

“Execution of all these documents along with Fiscal Support Agreement and all other Transaction Documents Required is an important step forward for Kaynes Semicon as we progress on our semiconductor manufacturing journey. We remain grateful to the Government of India, India Semiconductor Mission and Government of Gujarat for their continued support in this journey. We are committed to building a globally competitive semiconductor ecosystem from India with a clear focus on operational excellence and robust compliance.”

Mr. Ramesh Kannan, Executive Vice Chairman, Kaynes Technology India Limited, added:

We commend ISM and MeitY for their timely approvals and structured execution framework, which are building confidence across the ecosystem, Commented Ashok Chandak, President IESA.

Zithara.AI Founders Chart Bold AI Roadmap for Budget 2026

Hyderabad, Jan 28: As India gears up for Union Budget 2026, Zithara.AI—a Hyderabad-based pioneer in AI-powered offline retail transformation—outlines key expectations to accelerate deep-tech adoption. Serving 500+ stores like jewellery chains and Bajaj Electronics, the company addresses challenges including data silos, skilling gaps, and infrastructure hurdles in India’s 12M+ offline retail ecosystem.

Varun Kashyap and Sridevi Reddy, Co-Founders, Zithara.AI, said:

To have the government be more all-in and to be more invested both in letter, money and spirit, for that matter, as far as the ecosystem is concerned. The Government set aside a budget of Rs. 10,300+  Crore to boost the India AI mission over 5 years might not be sufficient for scaling up the AI-powered ecosystem. We need to treat AI as a future technology and treat it like Infrastructure to ensure better accessibility to funding.

We would also like to highlight that if the government is more invested in the business, then the ecosystem will be primed to support the startups. If a startup gets the 1^st set of funding from the government and they need to scale up, going back to the government is not an option. The startup has to depend on VC’s. Therefore, we would like the Government to set up funds to facilitate the funding for scaling up, particularly for startups with a proven track record for performance.

AI startups, we can allocate only 10 to 15 percent budget allocated for AI R&D, which is not sufficient to scaleup. Moreover, currently, we use the GPUs that are not in India; we’re always living on borrowed technology and have to pay a substantial amount for the same. With the high velocity of AI startups in the country, we need to build that capability inside India – a budget allocation for the same will be a great trigger for future growth. If the government is backing an initiative, it is going to be the nation’s competitive advantage.

The Centre must fully commit to AI startups in Budget 2026 with enhanced funding and security measures to power India’s deep-tech ecosystem.

HIL Begins Toll Operations at Kaza Fee Plaza, Marks Largest Single Toll Mandate

Madhya Pradesh, India, Jan 28: Highway Infrastructure Limited (“HIL”), a leading integrated infrastructure development and management company with expertise in Toll Operations, EPC Infrastructure, and Real Estate, has commenced toll operations at Kaza Fee Plaza on the Chilakaluripet–Vijayawada section of NH-16 in Andhra Pradesh, effective 23 January 2026.

The project spans 82.5 km (from 355.0 Km to 437.5 Km) along NH‑16, a key north–south corridor connecting major economic hubs across southern and eastern India. Notably, Kaza Toll Plaza records the highest toll collection among public-funded plazas in South India (Source: IHMCL).

First-of-Its-Scale Toll Operations Contract

This marks HIL’s first toll operations contract of this scale, with a contract value of ₹328.77 crore, awarded by the National Highways Authority of India (NHAI). It also represents the company’s largest single toll mandate to date, reflecting a significant expansion of its toll operations vertical. HIL will operate the plaza for a one-year period, translating this order win into immediate operational activity and revenue generation.

The project aligns with HIL’s asset-light toll operations model, enabling:

• Efficient scaling with limited capital commitment

• Strong operating cash-flow visibility

• Rapid conversion of order book into executed revenues

Strengthening Presence on a Strategic Corridor

NH‑16 is among India’s busiest highway corridors and a vital part of the national logistics and passenger transport network. HIL’s entry into this stretch:

• Expands its pan-India toll operations footprint

• Strengthens long-term engagement with NHAI

• Reinforces its credentials as a scalable partner for large national projects

Robust Order Book Growth

With the addition of Kaza Fee Plaza and other recent wins, HIL’s consolidated order book now stands at ₹1,209 crore, reflecting:

• EPC Order Book: Up 52% since March 2025, from ₹417 crore to ₹633 crore

• Tollways Collection Order Book: Up ~404% since March 2025, from ₹114 crore to ₹575 crore

This growth enhances medium-term revenue visibility and demonstrates HIL’s ability to scale efficiently across segments.

Outlook

HIL continues to strengthen its resilient and scalable infrastructure delivery platform, leveraging a growing order pipeline and balanced EPC and toll operations to capitalize on India’s ongoing highway development initiatives.

Commenting on the milestone, Mr. Arun Kumar Jain, Managing Director, Highway Infrastructure Limited said:

“The commencement of toll operations at Kaza Fee Plaza marks our first-ever contract of this scale and represents a significant milestone in HIL’s growth journey. This project underscores NHAI’s confidence in our operational capabilities and strengthens our presence on a strategically important national corridor in Andhra Pradesh. With a rapidly expanding order book and an asset-light execution model, we remain focused on disciplined operations, technology-driven efficiency, and sustainable long-term value creation for our investors.”
