Sikkim's Yakten declared India's first digital nomad village
Yakten, a village in Sikkim's Pakyong district, was officially declared India's first digital nomad village on Monday (July 14, 2025). A collaboration between the district administration and NGO Sarvahitey under the 'Nomad Sikkim' initiative, the project aims to transform strategic locations in the Himalayan State into year-round hubs for digital professionals across India and abroad, while ensuring sustainable income opportunities for homestay owners. Officials said the initiative was fuelled by Chief Minister Prem Singh Tamang's concern over the lack of steady income for homestay operators during the off-season, which may stretch for six months from April-May. 'If we ensure stable internet and electricity, remote workers will come to stay in the serene environs regardless of the season,' Pakyong District Collector Rohan Ramesh said at a function to launch the project. He said the district authorities have installed two internet lines and ensured village-wide Wi-Fi connectivity, apart from providing inverters to maintain uninterrupted electricity. He added that a long-term solution to address water scarcity in the village about 32 km from the State's capital, Gangtok, has been planned under the Jal Jeevan Mission. Gyan Bahadur Subba, the president of Yakten Village Tourism Cooperative Society, hoped the initiative would end the struggle of homestay operators and other service providers to stay afloat. 'Alongside promoting this initiative, the government needs to resolve drinking water and other basic issues,' he told journalists. MLA Pamin Lepcha, who represents Gnathang-Machong constituency, attended the launch programme.

Kia Carens Clavis EV to launch in India tomorrow, set to be first 7-seater electric MPV in segment
Kia India is set to launch the Carens Clavis EV on 15 July. The upcoming model will also mark the arrival of the country's first all-electric seven-seater MPV in its category, signalling a strategic expansion in the brand's EV portfolio. The Carens Clavis EV is positioned to cater to urban families looking for a practical electric mobility option that does not compromise on space or convenience. The model borrows its silhouette from the ICE-powered Carens, but includes distinct visual changes to set it apart. Externally, the Clavis EV is expected to retain the MPV-friendly proportions of its petrol and diesel counterparts. However, Kia could introduce electric-specific styling updates, including a closed-off front grille that doubles as the charging port, redesigned bumpers, and new aerodynamic alloy wheels aimed at enhancing efficiency. The rear is likely to carry forward the connected LED light bar seen on the standard model. The interior will largely resemble the ICE version, albeit with an EV-specific digital interface. Expect dual 12.3-inch screens for infotainment and instrumentation, a new two-spoke steering wheel, and a revised lower centre console offering additional storage. A dual-tone black-and-white interior theme is also anticipated. Convenience features expected include a powered and ventilated driver's seat, dual-zone automatic climate control with rear vents, wireless charging pads for both front and rear passengers, a panoramic sunroof, and an auto-dimming internal rearview mirror. Kia is likely to equip the Clavis EV with six airbags, front and rear parking sensors, a 360-degree camera with blind-spot monitoring, and tyre pressure monitoring. In addition, Level 2 Advanced Driver Assistance Systems (ADAS) may be included, such as adaptive cruise control, lane-keep assist, driver attention warning, and autonomous emergency braking. The Carens Clavis EV is expected to come with a 51.4 kWh battery pack offering a claimed range of up to 490 km on the MIDC cycle. A smaller 42 kWh variant may also be introduced, offering a slightly reduced range of approximately 400 km. While official powertrain figures are yet to be confirmed, the EV is likely to use a front-wheel-drive setup with output in the range of 135 to 170 PS.
