 | Floods, and the destruction that comes with them, are an annual feature in Assam, so why can't there be a better state of preparedness? |  |  | It has been a year since families were brutally assaulted and paraded through Una town by a group of vigilantes, all in the name of gau raksha. | |  | I am more confident, having learnt from my previous experiences, of tackling the problems and bringing the state back on the track of progress, Amarinder Singh said. | |  | India has one of the lowest levels of penetration of sanitary pad usage in the world. At 20%, India lags behind Thailand, Indonesia and China, all of which have over 50% usage. | |  | India's film censor board has been accused of arbitrarily curbing creative freedom. Top filmmakers are up in arms against this disturbing trend. | |  | Liu Xiaobo is a victim of two trends that converge under Xi: the re-centralisation of authority after a relatively less repressive decade of governance under Hu Jintao. | |  | Last week, the Chinese embassy in India issued an advisory to Chinese citizens in India and those planning to travel to India to improve personal safety and avoid unnecessary visits. | |  | Dangal was released across some 9,000 theatres in China in the first week of May.
