New Gurugram hub anchors the brand’s India push Tesla opens its largest India hub in Gurugram while it struggles with weak demand. The centre brings a showroom, charging points and full after-sales care into one site. Dealership data shows Tesla sells just over 100 cars since its heavily publicised July debut. People familiar with the company’s approach say Tesla now focuses on strengthening India’s broader EV environment to rebuild momentum. The firm offers no direct reply on its slow sales. Media reports indicate Tesla secures only a little more than 600 bookings by mid-September. A small share converts into sales…

Under the bright lights of a Delhi operating theatre, a woman lies still as surgeons prepare to remove her gallbladder. She sleeps under general anaesthesia, her body paralysed and her mind unconscious. Yet soft flute music flows through headphones resting over her ears. Even as anaesthetic drugs quiet most of her brain, her auditory pathways remain active. When she awakens, she recovers faster and clearer because she required lower doses of propofol and opioid painkillers than patients who heard no music. Researchers from Maulana Azad Medical College and Lok Nayak Hospital confirm that music can reduce drug use and improve…

A complex system drives soaring prices The UK now ranks as the most expensive place to build nuclear plants, according to a government review. The report blames an overly complex bureaucracy for pushing costs above global levels. Prime Minister Sir Keir Starmer ordered the review to trigger a radical reset of nuclear policy. The taskforce says simpler rules could save Britain tens of billions and reverse years of decline. The government aims to launch a new generation of nuclear plants to secure energy supplies and support net-zero goals.

A Weekend Filled With Frustration Lewis Hamilton expresses strong disappointment after another difficult race weekend in Las Vegas. The seven-time world champion starts last after a slow qualifying session. It is the first time in his 19-year career that he qualifies last purely on pace.

Hamilton calls the result “terrible” and says he sees “nothing positive” in the day. He tells a UK radio station that he only wants the season to end. He adds that he does not…

The new wording implies scientists have not fully dismissed a possible link between vaccines and autism. Experts warn this framing distorts evidence and risks confusing families. Revised Wording Creates Artificial DoubtThe site now argues that the statement “vaccines do not cause autism” is not evidence-based because studies cannot rule out every scenario. Specialists say this tactic promotes uncertainty rather than clarity. Alison Singer of the Autism Science Foundation says science cannot prove an absolute negative. She explains…
