India has sent a bold signal to Washington. ONGC Chairman Arun Kumar Singh declared that India will continue buying Russian oil at economical prices, regardless of US President Donald Trump’s tariff escalation. Trump recently doubled tariffs on Indian exports to 50% in protest against New Delhi’s reliance on Russian crude. Yet ONGC made it clear that unless the government orders otherwise, refineries like HPCL and MRPL will keep sourcing oil from Moscow. With refiners planning to increase Russian crude imports by 10–20% in September, India’s stance is unmistakable: energy security comes first. Prime Minister Modi is pushing diplomacy to ease tensions, but for now, India is standing firm in a high-stakes standoff that could reshape global trade and geopolitics.

How Someone Actually Wins a Nobel Prize | The Secret Selection Process Explained

Have you ever wondered how someone actually wins a Nobel Prize? Who decides it and how the winners are chosen? The Nobel Prize, created by Alfred Nobel, the inventor of dynamite, is one of the most prestigious awards in the world honoring outstanding achievements in Physics, Chemistry, Medicine, Literature, Peace, and Economics. But winning it isn’t about applying for it. The process is long, confidential, and extremely selective. Every September, nomination forms are sent to around 3,000 qualified experts including professors, scientists, and past Nobel laureates, and self-nominations are not allowed. From February to August, Nobel Committees carefully review nominations, consult international experts, and prepare detailed reports. Different institutions select winners for different categories: the Royal Swedish Academy of Sciences chooses Physics, Chemistry, and Economics; the Nobel Assembly at Karolinska Institutet selects Medicine; the Swedish Academy chooses Literature; and the Norwegian Nobel Committee selects the Peace Prize. In October, the final vote takes place and the decision is final. The winners are then honored on December 10, the anniversary of Alfred Nobel’s death, receiving their medal, diploma, and prize money in ceremonies held in Stockholm and Oslo. Interestingly, all nomination records remain secret for 50 years. A Nobel Prize isn’t simply given — it’s earned through a rigorous and highly secretive evaluation by some of the world’s top experts for work that truly changes the world.
