India and European Union Sign Major Economic Partnership Pact
India and European Union Sign Major Economic Partnership Pact
Politics
What’s Happening?
India and the European Union (EU) have sealed a long-awaited free trade agreement (FTA) after nearly two decades of negotiations, marking one of the biggest trade pacts in both sides’ histories. Leaders from India and the EU joined in New Delhi to finalise the deal, which aims to significantly reduce or eliminate tariffs on many goods and services traded between them. The pact is expected to cover products and services worth a large share of global trade, linking a market of roughly two billion people and deepening economic ties between India and Europe.
Under the agreement, tariffs on a wide range of products including textiles, gems and jewellery, leather goods, and more will be cut or made duty-free over time, giving Indian exporters easier access to European markets. Sensitive sectors such as some food products and agriculture have been excluded or phased in slowly to protect local industries.
Why is it Important?
This deal matters because it represents a major shift in global trade partnerships and opens up new opportunities for businesses, workers, and consumers on both sides. For young people, it shows how nations can work together to expand economic connections and create opportunities for jobs, exports, and innovation in areas like manufacturing, services, and technology.
The agreement also comes at a time when global trade is shifting, with countries looking to diversify economic ties beyond a single trading partner. By building a closer relationship with the EU, India strengthens its position in the global economy and opens up new supply chain and investment possibilities.

Design Week 2026: Where History Meets Fresh, Colourful Creativity in Paris
Design Week 2026: Where History Meets Fresh, Colourful Creativity in Paris
Art & Literature
What’s Happening?
Paris opened its doors to Design Week 2026, and the city was buzzing with designers, antiques, galleries, showrooms and stories waiting to be discovered. From Maison & Objet and Paris Déco Off to hidden treasures in flea markets and historic hotel interiors, the week was all about blending old traditions with fresh ideas think bold lighting that feels like sculpture, carpets and textiles with playful patterns, and furniture that mixes marble, metal and wood in surprising ways.
Designers showed how age-old techniques like hand-embroidery and woven fabrics are being given new life with colour, personality and modern flair. At galleries, contemporary creations sat side-by-side with classic French decorative arts, showing Paris as a place where history and innovation talk to each other. Beyond the official shows, the city’s flea markets, boutique pop-ups and even workshops added to the fun, making the week feel like a treasure hunt through texture, colour and imagination.
Why is it Important?
Design Week isn’t just for experts, it’s a chance for anyone who loves beautiful things and creative ideas to see how the everyday spaces around us can feel fresh, joyful and full of meaning. The trends spotlighted expressive lighting and thoughtful craftsmanship show that the next wave of design values individuality and comfort as much as style.
It also highlights how cities like Paris continue to be global hubs of inspiration, where artists and makers from different countries come together, share ideas, and push craft forward. This Week is a reminder that design is alive and everywhere from your bedroom walls to the chair you read in and that the best ideas often come from mixing old skills with new ways of seeing the world.

World’s “Doomsday Clock” Updated Again as Risks Rise!
World’s “Doomsday Clock” Updated Again as Risks Rise!
Science
What’s Happening?
Scientists who study global risks have moved the Doomsday Clock closer to midnight than ever before. The Doomsday Clock is a symbolic countdown that represents how close humanity is to catastrophic danger, especially from things like nuclear weapons, climate change, and other big threats. Midnight on this clock means the world is very close to disaster and the closer the clock is to midnight, the greater the perceived risk.
In 2026, the Bulletin of the Atomic Scientists, the group that maintains the clock decided to shift the hands even closer to midnight after reviewing rising tensions between major powers, continued threats from nuclear arsenals, and slow progress on reducing climate change. The exact time on the clock isn’t about predicting a specific day of disaster, but rather sending a message: the world faces serious risks and leaders, scientists, and citizens need to work together to reduce them.
Why is it Important?
That might sound a bit dramatic, but the Doomsday Clock is really a wake-up call like a giant global reminder that humans have built technologies that can help us a lot, but also create huge challenges if they’re not handled carefully. Nuclear weapons can destroy cities in minutes, climate change can change our weather and environment over decades, and new technologies like AI bring both incredible opportunities and fresh questions about safety.
Moving the clock closer to midnight doesn’t mean the world is doomed, it means that people are paying attention and saying “Now is the time to act.” It’s like a giant version of looking at a scoreboard and realising you still have time left to change the outcome… if you start today.

Bronze-Age Tomb Discovery Sheds Light on Ancient Mediterranean Links
Bronze-Age Tomb Discovery Sheds Light on Ancient Mediterranean Links
History
What’s Happening?
Archaeologists in Cyprus have uncovered a treasure from the Bronze Age extraordinary elite tombs near an ancient harbour city that belonged to people who lived around 4,000 years ago! These aren’t everyday graves. They’re grand burial sites filled with rich and rare objects like metal jewelry, finely crafted tools, and decorated pottery that show just how powerful and wealthy some people were back then.
The discovery happened near what used to be a busy coastal settlement, where boats would arrive and leave with goods and ideas from far-away islands and lands across the Mediterranean. In one large tomb, experts found layers of objects arranged with great care, almost like the grave was telling a story about the person buried there what they owned, what they valued, and maybe even what they hoped for in the afterlife.
Why is it Important?
This discovery matters because tombs are like time capsules. When people are buried with their belongings, archaeologists can study those objects to learn about how they lived, what skills they had, what they traded with others, and how society was organized.
These ancient harbour cities were hubs of trade and culture, long before airplanes, ships with engines, or even money existed the way we know it today. People traded goods by boat, shared ideas, and brought new techniques to new lands and sometimes they were buried with the very items they cherished most.
