The function of education is to help each individual to be free of fear, so that they can be intelligent. —Krishnamurti

Context: Is it not the function of education to help each individual to be free of fear, so that he can be intelligent? That is what we aim at in a school - which means that the teachers themselves must really be free of fear. What is the good of teachers talking about fearlessness if they are themselves afraid of what their neighbour may say, afraid of their wives or their husbands?

Mukesh Ambani's Reliance Jio is poised to become the world’s largest Fixed Wireless Access (FWA) provider by subscriber base, potentially overtaking U.S.-based T-Mobile, according to a report released by ICICI Securities.

Citing data from the Telecom Regulatory Authority of India (TRAI), the report states that Reliance Jio’s total 5G FWA subscriber base, including users under unlicensed band radio (UBR) stood at 6.88 million in May.

Reliance Jio reclassified about 1 million UBR subscribers under its FTTx category in May, leaving its net FWA subscriber base at 5.9 million. The company added 0.74 million FWA customers during the month.

“RJio’s FWA (including UBR) stood at 6.88 million. This, compared to T-Mobile (US player, and the largest FWA subs base globally) FWA subs base was at 6.85 mn in March 2025. We believe RJio is on a path to become the dominant player by subs for FWA globally by end-June 2025,” analysts Sanjesh Jain, Mohit Mishra and Aparajita Chakraborty wrote in the report.

Interior of the Cave Temple of Indra Sabha at Ellora published by Capt R. M. Grindlay 1826.

Grindlay (1786-1877) was only 17 when he arrived in India in 1803. He served with the Bombay Native Infantry from 1804 to 1820 and made a large collection of sketches and drawings on various subjects.

Indra Sabha is the largest of the five 9th-century rock-cut Jain cave-temples at Ellora. Grindlay wrote: ‘Of all the wonderful excavations at Ellora, this is remarkable for its elaborate sculpture and ornament; the interior columns are richly cut and perforated and beautifully represented.”

"Log gawar bolte the... jab maine kheti ko chuna."

That’s what 24-year-old Prince Shukla heard when he left a secure job in Bengaluru to return home to Purnia, Bihar, and take up farming.

Armed with a BSc in Agriculture and just ₹1 lakh borrowed from his father and relatives, he launched his startup—AGRATE.

He started small: supplying farmers with quality seeds, organic fertilisers, and efficient irrigation tools. But what truly changed lives was his hands-on support and training for small-scale farmers who had never imagined these modern practices.

In the early days, he faced skepticism, financial strain, and countless obstacles. But Prince believed farming deserved dignity, innovation, and ambition.

Today, AGRATE generates ₹2.5 crore in annual revenue.

The farmers who once struggled to make ends meet now grow healthy crops with confidence and pride. Families who saw farming as a burden now see it as a path to prosperity.

Those who once mocked his decision now come to seek his advice.

And the very soil he returned to isn’t just sprouting crops—it’s cultivating hope.

Farming can be the future. And when young minds like Prince Shukla lead the way, that future grows greener every day.
