New Delhi, December 9, 2025 – Rungta Tea, one of India's leading regional tea brands, celebrates 24 years of operations with a rare achievement in FMCG distribution - they have maintained a 92% retention rate of its distributor network since launching operations. A retention rate, the company says is unusual in India's fast-moving consumer goods sector. 

Headquarters in Delhi since 2004-05, the company currently operates across North and East India with the same distributor partners it signed at inception. 

"Quality, commitment, and relationships - these three principals have guided every decision for 24 years," said Girjesh Rungta, Founder and Managing Director of Rungta Tea.

The company plans to accelerate expansion over the next two years, targeting growth rates that would match its 24-year trajectory, according to Mr. Rungta. He cited existing infrastructure capacity as a key enabler. 

"The work we accomplished in 24 years will be replicated in the next two years," Mr. Rungta stated. "Our infrastructure is built for companies five times our current size. We're not building for today, we're prepared for ten years ahead." 

Rungta Tea, operates a manufacturing facility in Siliguri with family oversight of quality control processes. The company reports testing approximately 2,000 tea samples to approve 15-20 for its premium product lines.

"The business model relies on transparency and zero-cash transactions," Mr. Rungta said. "When distributors trust the business practices, retention follows."

Festive Gifting made easy with Zoomin

When it is a festive season, we all would be confused as to what to gift to our near and dears. I was no exception. With the upcoming Dussehra and Diwali, I was scouting for some options which is when I stumbled across Zoomin

I wanted to give a gift which is unique to my Son who is going to be 5 next year. This site which is famous for its photo cards, picture calendar, photo prints among others also had other gifting options specially for kids. I quickly browsed and found they had something unique. Snack Box and Water Bottle with name embossed on it. I did not think twice to place the order. Order arrived in no time and do I need to say my son as surprised and delighted?

Let me talk about the products.

To start with, I loved the quality of the products - be it snack box or water bottle. They are so sturdy and would last for long. The quality of the print on the bottle & snack box were superior. 

Snack Box could hold more than just smacks as you could see on the pic above. I would say this is good enough even to pack a decent lunch for a 4 to 5 year old. It has locks on 4 sides which means it gives a good lock preventing air from outside entering into it or arrest leakage.

Water bottle is an insulated one which means it could hold the heat for sometime. Hence it is good to send luke warm water to the kids since the heat will be retained giving a better health for your kids. The mouth can be opened with a flip which isn’t difficult for the kids to use. 

These can be packed easily on your kid’s bag. They also have some discounts running rio time to time which when utilised gives a perfect value for your money. 

Most of the merchandise listed on the site are irresistible and can be purchased through various payment options like Debit, Credit Cards, Online Banking, UPI and even Cash on Delivery.

For Diwali, they have 25% discount offer. Use Code - HAPPY25 and get 25% off on purchase of ₹1,000 and above. You can shop for other occasions too.

Download the app on Google Playstore or App Store on iOS which enables easy tracking of your order.

Zoomin also has Stationery and other gifting options. What are you waiting for?

आयकर भरना नहीं अब बोझ, बुजुर्गों के दरवाजे पर पहुंचेगी सम्मान से भरी सेवा

- श्री नानक फाउंडेशन ने शुरू की पहल ‘संवेदनशील शुरुआत’, हजारों वरिष्ठ नागरिकों को मिलेगी राहत 

- 5000 से अधिक लोगों को अब तक मिल चुका है लाभ, घर पहुंचकर दी जा रही है सेवा 

नई दिल्ली। 

जब उम्र के साथ कदम लड़खड़ाने लगते हैं तो तकनीकी जटिलताएं और सरकारी दस्तावेजों की उलझनें किसी पहाड़ से कम नहीं लगतीं। ऐसे में अगर कोई संस्था यह कहे कि "हम आपके दरवाजे पर आकर टैक्स भरेंगे" तब यह सिर्फ सेवा नहीं बल्कि एक सम्मान की वापसी होगी। यह शुरूआत श्री नानक फाउंडेशन ने एक पहल के रूप में शुरू की है जिसे ‘संवेदनशील शुरुआत’ नाम दिया है। यह उन बुज़ुर्गों के लिए किसी वरदान से कम नहीं है जो हर साल आयकर रिटर्न भरने पर असहज महसूस करते हैं। इस सेवा के तहत अब प्रशिक्षित पेशेवर सीधे वरिष्ठ नागरिकों के घर जाकर आयकर दाखिल करने में मदद करते हैं। 

यह जानकारी साझा करते हुए श्री नानक फाउंडेशन की संस्थापक लिरिल बंसल ने कहा, “हमने महसूस किया कि टैक्स भरने में बुज़ुर्गों को जो मानसिक तनाव और असहायता झेलनी पड़ती है वह बहुत अमानवीय अनुभव है। यही कारण है कि हमने एक ऐसी पहल शुरू करने का फैसला लिया जिसमें एक सेवा भाव हो और वह उनके आत्मसम्मान को लौटाने की कोशिश होनी चाहिए।” उन्होंने कहा कि यह कोई अभियान नहीं, एक ऐसी सोच है जो उम्र चाहे जो भी हो, लेकिन उनकी गरिमा बनाए रखने की पैरवी करती है। इन बुजुर्गों को यही भरोसा देने के लिए एक नई शुरुआत के साथ श्री नानक फाउंडेशन कोशिश कर रहा है। 

लिरिल बंसल बताती हैं कि फाउंडेशन की इस पहल ने अब तक दिल्ली और एनसीआर में करीब पांच हजार अधिक बुज़ुर्गों तक घर बैठे सेवा पहुंची है। इसके पीछे कर सलाहकारों और सामाजिक कार्यकर्ताओं की एक संवेदनशील टीम काम कर रही है, जो केवल काम निपटाने के लिए नहीं, बल्कि हर बुज़ुर्ग से जुड़ने और उसे सम्मान देने के भाव से इस सेवा को अंजाम दे रही है। फाउंडेशन अब इस सेवा को देश के अन्य हिस्सों में भी ले जाने की योजना बना रहा है, ताकि हर वह बुज़ुर्ग जो बैंक या सीए ऑफिस जाने में असमर्थ है, अपने घर पर ही वित्तीय रूप से सशक्त महसूस कर सके। 

दरअसल, फाउंडेशन की यह सेवा न केवल आईटीआर फाइलिंग तक सीमित है, बल्कि इसमें पेंशन, टीडीएस, टैक्स रिफंड, अग्रिम कर, पैन-आधार लिंकिंग, फॉर्म 26AS, AIS जैसी वित्तीय जटिलताओं को सुलझाने की सुविधा भी शामिल है। खास बात यह है कि सारी प्रक्रिया बुज़ुर्गों की सुविधा के अनुसार ऑनलाइन और ऑफलाइन दोनों तरीकों से की जाती है।

Press Release - “Board Exams will happen twice a year, and it will benefit students”: Union Education Minister Dharmendra Pradhan at ABP Network’s Smart Education Summit 2025

 “Board Exams will happen twice a year, and it will benefit students”: Union Education Minister Dharmendra Pradhan at ABP Network’s Smart Education Summit 2025

·         “15 foreign Universities will establish their branches in India in next few years”, Dharmendra Pradhan said.

·         “We launched a successful Chandrayaan mission,” Dharmendra Pradhan said

·         “Three language formula is not debated in any other state except Tamil Nadu”, said Dharmendra Pradhan

New Delhi, June 9, 2025: Countering allegations of deleting the history of Mughals from school textbooks, Union Education Minister,Dharmendra Pradhan, said, “We are adding many other facets and people from Indian history who were omitted by the previous Governments. Hence, space taken by Mughal dynasty has reduced.” He was speaking at ABP Network’s Smart Education Summit 2025.

As India takes confident strides toward its vision of becoming a developed nation by 2047, ABP Network hosted the Smart Education Summit 2025 in the national capita, with Union Minister for Education Dharmendra Pradhan gracing the event as Chief Guest. This year’s summit delved into the theme ‘Education for a Future-Ready India’, placing a sharp focus on the intersection of learning, technology, and future skill development.

Giving clarity on change in Board examination patterns, Dharmendra Pradhan said, “Boards examination will happen twice to destress students. Students themselves have expressed the need for this, so that the better score out of the two attempts can be considered.”

Speaking about ensuring care of young children, he said, “A child’s mental development happens by the time it reaches 5^th standard. Therefore, for the first time, Union Health Ministry and other bodies are looking closely at improving early childhood care and education.”

Highlighting the challenge faced by education sector, he said, “The biggest challenge is that we have a dropout rate of 40% from entry level to senior school years.” 

Regarding native languages, he remarked, “We are promoting the local and native languages of our citizens by promoting education in mother tongue. There is a mindset that if we don’t teach English; our children will not stand out in global competition. Other countries, like China, Japan, Korea, and Israel, are not dependent on English.” 

Sharing his views, he said, “Competencies matter more than degrees. Education should not be about degrees but it should increase competencies. So, we are making an education ecosystem that’s outcome oriented. We are preparing our young students to be part of the global workforce.”

“Three language formula is not debated in any other state except Tamil Nadu. Our policy is clear, we will not impose any language from a different state on the citizens of a particular state.” Dharmendra Pradhan further added, “Tamil Nadu state board schools teach three languages, including Tamil, English, and as a third language, Telugu, Kannad, Malayalam, and Urdu are taught. In fact, people spend more in Tamil Nadu to learn Hindi. 

On being asked the need for Apaar ID, Dharmendra Pradhan said, “Till some time before, some elite institutions used to practice a Credit system in imparting education. Under NEP, we are creating a credit infrastructure for everyone. To record all credit earned by an individual student, so that they are duly preserved, validated, and utilized, an academic bank of credit has been conceptualized and now implemented. To access this repository of credit, a unique ID. Apaar is a byproduct of Aadhar for the education sector. When Aadhar was imagined, many sectoral byproduct IDs were imagined.”

On reservations introduced in Odisha for socially backward people, he remarked, “Odisha had scope of incorporating 11.25% reservations for economically weaker sections. We rectified the anomalies of last many decades and have implemented this.”

Regarding education systems, he said, “In India, higher education GER is about 28%. We have to make it 50% by 2035. For that we are leveraging technologies to make personalized learning modules, build smart classrooms. Technology adoption is must to revolutionize education in the country. This will be the 5^th year of NEP implementation. We are a promoting education system that’s Indian knowledge system and centers on people, fosters Indian language, advance technologies adoption, and initiating several other measures.”

Commenting upon Central Government objectives, Dharmendra Pradhan said, “Welfare is a major agenda in the Indian Government; another agenda is to build confidence of the Indian nation. We have been focusing towards advancing India after taking people along.” 

Regarding International universities coming to India, he said, “15 Foreign Universities will establish their branches in India in next few years. We are sending our institutions outside.” 

Earlier, setting the context of changing education landscape in the country, he mentioned “Today, India has 14.72 lakh schools, with most schools in the villages. We have over 98 lakh teachers who are diving education in India.”  He further added, “Education sector got derailed in India due to colonization. We once contributed 25-30% of global GDP.  While we are the 4^th largest economy, we are not in the same state as we were once before. Hence, we need to pursue the vision of Viksit Bharat @ 2047, shared by our Hon’ble Prime Minister. The efforts have to come from every sector, but we can achieve this fundamentally if our education sector is robust.  For the same, we passed the National Education Policy in India, which is in different stages of implementation.” 

ABP Network’s Smart Education Summit 2025is a high-impact platform for furthering discourse on building synergies between academia and industry, bridging the digital divide, and integrating smart learning technologies in classrooms across the country.
