Digital Health Upgrade: India’s Ministry of Health has rolled out JANANI, an upgraded maternal and child health platform with QR-based mother-and-child cards, automated high-risk pregnancy alerts, and real-time dashboards—built to link with U-WIN and POSHAN and reduce duplicate records via ABHA/Aadhaar/mobile registration. Markets & Currencies: The rupee slid to fresh lows, breaching 96/$ for the first time as crude prices jumped on West Asia risk and foreign investors stayed cautious. Business & Growth: Japan’s Asics posted record Q1 earnings, citing broad regional momentum despite margin pressure from US tariffs. Geopolitics: BRICS foreign ministers condemned unilateral sanctions but couldn’t fully align on West Asia, with Iran’s role and regional partnerships complicating consensus. Culture & Sports: Korea is expanding its cultural push in Russia with a major VK Asia Dragon Fest pavilion, while India’s Sangram Singh is set to become the first Indian to fight for an Asia MMA championship title in Kuala Lumpur.
