Lord Jagannath’s Kolkata chariot to glide on Sukhoi tyres
Saturday, 31 May 2025 Kolkata's Iskcon Rath Yatra chariot, carrying Lord Jagannath, will roll on new Sukhoi fighter jet tyres, replacing the old Boeing 747 tyres. This change comes after a steering snag last year and a two-decade search for suitable replacements. The MRF-manufactured tyres will enhance manoeuvrability, safety, and stability, especially on Kolkata's tram-tracked roads, ensuring a smoother Yatra experience.

During the divine celebration of Rath Yatra in Jagannath Puri, the Seva Bhav Initiative quietly brought food, relief, and safety to over a million devotees. Behind the vibrant visuals of chariots and chants, the Adani Group conducted a massive effort of compassion under the philosophy Seva Hi Sadhna Hai. The Seva Bhav Initiative, in collaboration with ISKCON and local heroes, ensured over 4 million sattvic meals were freshly prepared and distributed. The initiative was eco-conscious, with biodegradable plates and compost-ready waste systems, proving seva can be sustainable too.
Rescue teams from the Nolia community saved 156 lives, equipped by the Adani Group—yet another arm of this selfless operation. From lifeguards to sanitation workers, from the police to railway staff—every unsung hero was honoured with the same prasadam served to devotees.

Trump’s recent claim that India halted oil imports from Russia is falling apart, as multiple reports confirm continued shipments. Despite global pressure, New Delhi says its energy security comes first. Russian oil now accounts for over 30% of India’s crude imports—up from just 1% pre-Ukraine war. Experts say India’s stance is strategic, not political. While the U.S. and EU push for reduced reliance on Moscow, India plays neutral, securing discounted supplies to support its 1.4 billion citizens and shield its economy.
