Announcing the results, state minister for science, technology and technical education, Sumit Kumar Singh, said the timely release of the BTech 8th semester results demonstrated BEU's commitment to academic discipline and transparency.

Next decade to further bolster India's global digital leadership: PM Modi
New Delhi: As 'Digital India' completes 10 years, the next decade will be even more transformative, as the country moves from digital governance to global digital leadership -- from India-first to India-for-the-world, Prime Minister Narendra Modi said on Tuesday. According to PM Modi, 'Digital India' has not remained a mere government programme; it has become a people's movement. "It is central to building an 'Aatmanirbhar Bharat', and to making India a trusted innovation partner to the world. To all innovators, entrepreneurs, and dreamers: the world is looking at India for the next digital breakthrough," said the Prime Minister in a post on LinkedIn. Ten years ago, India embarked on a bold journey into uncharted territory with great conviction. While decades were spent doubting the ability of Indians to use technology, "we changed this approach and trusted the ability of Indians to use technology," said PM Modi. "While decades were spent thinking that the use of technology would deepen the gap between the haves and the have-nots, we changed this mindset and used technology to eliminate the gap between the haves and the have-nots. When the intent is right, innovation empowers the less empowered. When the approach is inclusive, technology brings change in the lives of those on the margins," PM Modi emphasised. This belief laid the foundation for Digital India - a mission to democratise access, build an inclusive digital infrastructure, and provide opportunities for all. In 2014, internet penetration was limited, digital literacy was low, and online access to government services was scarce. Many doubted whether a country as vast and diverse as India could truly go digital. "Today, that question has been answered not just in data and dashboards, but in the lives of 140 crore Indians. From how we govern, to how we learn, transact, and build, Digital India is everywhere," said the Prime Minister. In 2014, India had around 25 crore internet connections. Today, that number has grown to over 97 crores. Over 42 lakh kilometres of Optical Fibre Cable, equivalent to 11 times the distance between Earth and the Moo,n now connects even the most remote villages. PM Modi wrote on LinkedIn that India's 5G rollout is among the fastest in the world, with 4.81 lakh base stations installed in just two years. "High-speed internet now reaches urban hubs and forward military posts alike including Galwan, Siachen, and Ladakh. India Stack, which is our digital backbone, has enabled platforms like UPI, which now handles 100+ billion transactions a year. Around half of all real-time digital transactions happen in India," the Prime Minister highlighted. Through Direct Benefit Transfer (DBT), over Rs 44 lakh crore has been transferred directly to citizens, cutting out middlemen and saving Rs 3.48 lakh crore in leakages. Schemes like SVAMITVA have issued 2.4 crore+ property cards and mapped 6.47 lakh villages, ending years of land-related uncertainty, PM Modi stated. India's digital economy is also empowering MSMEs and small entrepreneurs like never before. Open Network for Digital Commerce (ONDC) is a revolutionary platform which opens a new window of opportunities by providing a seamless connection with a huge market of buyers and sellers. "GeM (Government e-Marketplace) enables the common man to sell goods and services to all arms of the government. This not only empowers the common man with a huge market but also saves money for the government," said the Prime Minister. ONDC recently crossed 200 million transactions, with the last 100 million in just six months. From Banarasi weavers to bamboo artisans in Nagaland, sellers are now reaching customers nationwide, without middlemen or digital monopolies. GeM has also crossed Rs 1 lakh crore GMV in 50 days, with 22 lakh sellers, including 1.8 lakh+ women-led MSMEs, who have fulfilled orders worth Rs 46,000 crore. India's Digital Public Infrastructure (DPI) from Aadhaar, CoWIN, DigiLocker, and FASTag to PM-WANI and One Nation One Subscription is now studied and adopted globally, wrote PM Modi. CoWIN enabled the world's largest vaccination drive, issuing 220 crore QR-verifiable certificates. DigiLocker, with 54 crore users, hosts 775 crore+ documents securely and seamlessly. "Through our G20 Presidency, India launched the Global DPI Repository and a $25 million Social Impact Fund, helping nations across Africa and South Asia adopt inclusive digital ecosystems," the Prime Minister further highlighted. "India now ranks among the top three startup ecosystems in the world, with over 1.8 lakh startups. But this is more than a startup movement; it is a tech renaissance. India is doing extremely well when it comes to AI skill penetration and AI talent concentration among our youth," PM Modi said. "Through the $1.2 billion India AI Mission, India has enabled access to 34,000 GPUs at globally unmatched prices at less than $1/GPU hour, making India not just the most affordable internet economy, but also the most affordable compute destination. India has championed humanity-first AI," according to PM Modi.

In an article shared on LinkedIn, the PM wrote, 'While decades were spent doubting the ability of Indians to use technology, we changed this approach and trusted the ability of Indians to use technology.' Launched in 2015, Digital India was aimed at democratising access to technology and governance. Reflecting on its scale and success, the PM wrote, 'From how we govern, to how we learn, transact, and build, Digital India is everywhere.' PM Modi underlined that internet connections in India have jumped from 25 crore in 2014 to over 97 crore today. Over 42 lakh kilometres of Optical Fibre Cable, equivalent to 11 times the Earth-Moon distance, now links even the remotest villages. He highlighted that India's 5G rollout is among the fastest globally, reaching forward military zones such as Galwan and Siachen.

The PM also cited key digital platforms that have become global models — from UPI , now handling over 100 billion transactions annually, to Direct Benefit Transfers worth ₹44 lakh crore that have cut leakages and middlemen.

'Schemes like SVAMITVA have issued 2.4 crore+ property cards and mapped 6.47 lakh villages, ending years of land-related uncertainty,' he noted. Calling India's digital economy a force for inclusion, the PM spotlighted ONDC and GeM as tools that have empowered MSMEs, artisans, and women-led enterprises. 'ONDC recently crossed 200 million transactions… GeM has crossed ₹1 lakh crore GMV in just 50 days,' he said. He added that platforms like CoWIN, DigiLocker and FASTag have made India's Digital Public Infrastructure (DPI) a model for the world. Through India's G20 Presidency, the country launched a global DPI repository and a $25 million fund to help other nations adopt inclusive tech systems. According to the PIB, India's digital economy contributed 11.74per cent to GDP in 2022–23 and is expected to rise to 13.42per cent by 2024–25, with projections placing its share near 20per cent by 2030. On the startup front, the PM wrote that India now ranks among the world's top three ecosystems, supported by initiatives like the $1.2 billion IndiaAI Mission. As of May 2025, India had over 34,000 GPUs, the largest affordable compute access in the world. 'Digital India has not remained a mere government programme; it has become a people's movement,' PM Modi concluded. 'Let us build what empowers. Let us lead with technology that unites, includes, and uplifts', he wrote.

Nothing Phone (3) launch event tonight: How to watch the live stream online
Nothing is set to launch the Phone (3) tonight. Apart from its premium flagship smartphone, the London-based company is also expected to unveil the Nothing Headphone (1), its first-ever over-ear headphones. The Nothing Phone (3) launch event will commence at 10:30 PM IST and will be livestreamed on the Nothing website as well as on the company's YouTube channel. Unlike its predecessor, the Nothing Phone (2), the upcoming smartphone will come with a new design, with CEO Carl Pei stating that the phone will be made from 'premium materials' and come with 'software that really levels things up.' While not much is known about the Headphone (1), Tom Ridley, a designer at Nothing, said that they are looking to make 'a more interesting looking pair of headphones that say something about you.' Leaked photos and videos of the headphones suggest that they will have a transparent design with 'Sound by KEF' branding and sport squircle earcups that resemble cassette tapes. Nothing has confirmed that the Phone (3) will be powered by the Snapdragon 8s Gen 4 chipset, which also powers the recently launched Poco F7. The company also said that the smartphone will get at least 5 years of OS updates and 7 years of security patches. On the design front, the Phone (3) won't have the iconic Glyph interface the company is known for, but instead will have a new design called 'Glyph Matrix'. This might be similar to ASUS ROG Phone 8's Mini-LED programmable matrix. Like its predecessor, the upcoming phone is likely to feature a transparent back panel that shows the internals of the device. When light becomes language. Introducing the Glyph Matrix. Phone (3). 1 July. — Nothing (@nothing) June 19, 2025 Recently leaked renders of the Phone (3) from Android Headlines suggest that the upcoming device will have two cameras lined up next to each other, with the third camera positioned on the right side. On the back, we will most likely see a triple camera setup that consists of a 50MP primary shooter alongside a 50MP telephoto lens and an ultrawide sensor. Rumour also has it that the Phone (3) won't be going the Carbon Silicon route but will instead be backed by a 5,150mAh battery. As for the price, Nothing CEO Carl Pei has already stated that the Phone (3) will cost 800 pounds, which roughly translates to around Rs 90,000, but the company might launch it in India with a price tag of somewhere between Rs 50,000 to Rs 60,000.
