For nearly a decade, Kashish Mittal walked the high-pressure hallways of Indian bureaucracy. An Indian Administrative Service (IAS) officer and an alumnus of IIT-Delhi, he held key positions in the Prime Minister’s Office and various central ministries. On paper, it was a life marked by prestige, influence, and certainty. But in 2019, Mittal did something few could imagine: he stepped away from it all. Not for a corporate offer or a foreign degree — but for music. “I was serving the country, yes, but I wasn’t serving my soul,” Mittal said in a recent interview. “And at some point, that…

देशभर में जब स्वतंत्रता दिवस या गणतंत्र दिवस के मौके पर भारतीय तिरंगा शान से लहराता है, तब बहुत कम लोग जानते हैं कि यह राष्ट्रीय ध्वज एक छोटे से कर्नाटक के गाँव बेगनेरी में जन्म लेता है — एक ऐसी जगह जहाँ न मशीनें हैं, न फैक्ट्री की चहल-पहल, सिर्फ चरखा, सूती धागा, और देशभक्ति की भावना। कर्नाटक खादी ग्रामोद्योग संयुक्त संघ (KKGSS) द्वारा संचालित यह इकाई, भारत की इकलौती BIS प्रमाणित संस्था है जिसे भारतीय ध्वज को बनाने की कानूनी अनुमति प्राप्त है। यह ध्वज पूरी तरह से खादी — हाथ से काता और बुना गया कपड़ा —…
In a mud-plastered home without electricity or a toilet, nestled in a quiet farming village of Uttar Pradesh, a young girl watched as children coughed and wheezed near a wheat thresher cloaked in dust.
