Of sarees & soirees: Choral music conductor sweeps Bach to the past
Saturday, 23 December 2023 India's first woman music conductor, Coomi Wadia, receives Padma Shri for her contribution to western classical music. Wadia was part of Paranjoti Academy Chorus (PAC) and led them to win the first prize in the IX International Choral Song Festival in Poland. She introduced Indians to modern 20th-century works and invited composers like Vanraj Bhatia to write new choral music. Wadia faced gender and racial discrimination in India throughout her career. She continues to lead a simple life and enjoys going to concerts.

The United Arab Emirates witnessed an unprecedented deluge, marking its most substantial rainfall on record since 1949. Described as a "historic weather event" by the state-run WAM news agency, the widespread downpour across the UAE is attributed to a combination of factors, including cloud seeding initiatives. Significant disruptions have been reported in flights from India to Dubai due to heavy rains causing flooding at the emirate's airport, one of the world's busiest. Air India, operating 72 weekly flights from multiple Indian cities to Dubai, alongside IndiGo, have cancelled their services on Wednesday. Other carriers, including Air India Express, Vistara, and SpiceJet, which also serve various Indian cities to Dubai routes, have been affected as well. Dubai, hosting a substantial Indian diaspora, sees these flight cancellations impacting travel plans and connections for many.
