Good health comes from small, consistent actions — eating well, staying active, managing stress, and getting regular diabetes screenings. In India alone, an estimated 77 million adults live with type 2 diabetes, and nearly 25 million are prediabetic, at higher risk of developing the condition soon. Understanding your risks and building small, daily habits today can help you beat the odds tomorrow.

Economic denial is one of the most persistent forms of climate denial today. It doesn’t dispute that climate change is happening, instead, it argues that solutions are too expensive or harmful to growth. In reality, the costs of inaction, from disasters, health impacts, and lost productivity, far exceed the investments needed for just transitions. Acting on climate isn’t an expense; it’s an opportunity to build a fairer, more resilient economy.

As an electricity consumer, you have access to a service that’s recognised as a basic right. The Electricity Act 2003 strengthens this by making distribution licensees responsible for providing reliable and quality power.

In 2023, over 25,242 road crashes in India were due to Driving on wrong side or Lane indiscipline.

Safe footpaths aren’t a luxury — they’re a fundamental right protected under Article 21 of the Constitution, which guarantees the right to life and personal liberty. Yet, for decades, our cities have prioritised cars over people. If we continue to neglect pedestrian infrastructure, we’ll push more people into vehicles — worsening congestion and pollution. 

In this series, we unpack climate change — the science, the impacts, and the challenges. This week, we begin with climate denial, a real barrier to climate action. When scientists publish studies, it is the responsibility of other experts to evaluate their validity. Yet among climate deniers, even well-established and rigorously validated facts are often twisted, dismissed, or attacked with conspiracy claims, spreading misinformation that downplays the science itself. Don’t be a climate denier, be a climate warrior.

CAG has submitted its comments on the Electricity (Amendment) Bill 2025 to ensure that consumer rights, affordability, and equitable access remain central to power sector reforms.
