Assams sanchipat manuscripts gifted to Rashtrapati Bhavan for preservation
During a ceremony, Kalakshetra Secretary Sudarshan Thakur handed over the manuscripts to Rashtrapati Bhavan Secretary Dipti Umashankar, they said.
The Guwahati-based Srimanta Sankardeva Kalakshetra Society coordinated with various 'Satras' (Vaishnavite monasteries) across Assam to collect the 'sanchipat' manuscripts, an official release said.
The manuscripts presented include the 'Kirtan Ghosha', composed by Mahapurush Srimanta Sankardeva. 'Adi Dasham' – Srimanta Sankardeva's poetic translation based on the 10th skandha of the Bhagavata Purana – has also been donated.
'Nam Ghoxa' by Mahapurush Shri Shri Madhavdeva, and 'Bhakti Ratnavali' by the Vishnupuri monks and translated into Assamese by Mahapurush Shri Shri Madhavdeva, are also part of the manuscripts donated.
Moreover, a 'sanchipat' manuscript of 'Geet Govinda', originally composed in Sanskrit by Jayadeva and translated into Assamese by poet Kabiraj Chakravarti in the royal court of Swargadeo Rudra Singha, has also been presented to Rashtrapati Bhavan library for its preservation and display.

6 lakh mini fridges from this company recalled for causing ‘heat and fire damage' worth $700,000 in US
Representative Image. Credit: Amazon Appliance maker Frigidaire has recalled over 6 lakh mini fridges due to a fire hazard that has led to injuries and over $700,000 in property damage, a report claims. The US-based company reportedly announced the recall earlier this week after the Consumer Product Safety Commission (CPSC) discovered that the internal electrical components of the fridges can short-circuit, causing the plastic housing to catch fire. According to a report by The Independent, the commission's notice has detailed that at least 26 complaints have been received concerning these mini fridges, with issues such as 'smoking, sparking, burning, melting, overheating, and catching fire.' The report also cites two individuals who claimed that the problems with these mini fridges caused smoke inhalation. At the same time, the total property damages linked to these incidents surpassed $700,000 (nearly Rs 6 crore), the report added. What are the mini fridge models that were recalled The recalled mini fridges were available for purchase at retailers such as Walmart and through online platforms, including Walmart's website and Amazon, between January 2020 and December 2023. Model numbers affected by the recall include: EFMIS129, EFMIS137, EFMIS149, and EFMIS175.

Eligible consumers can request a refund for the recalled units, which were initially priced between $36 and $40 (nearly Rs 3,500). According to the report, Curtis International Ltd., the importer of the recalled fridges, has yet to provide an official response regarding the matter. In addition to the mini fridges, several other products have also been recalled by the commission.

Recalls were also announced for various electric scooters and bikes. One of them, the FENGQS F7 Pro E-bike, was flagged for a potential fire risk from an overheating lithium-ion battery.

3 Bathinda sisters defy odds to clear UGC-NET
Agency: PTI Bathinda, Jul 27 (PTI) Three daughters of a daily wager mother and 'granthi' father, bruteforced their way into academics by clearing the UGC-NET, despite tough odds. Rimpi Kaur, Hardeep Kaur, and Beant Kaur, aged 28, 23, and 26, hail from Budhlada in Mansa district, the least literate district in the state. The three cleared the University Grants Commission-National Eligibility Test in different subjects. The results of the exams conducted by the National Testing Agency were declared recently. 'My elder sister wants to be a professor in computer science, while my younger sister, Hardeep Kaur, and I are working hard for a JRF (Junior Research Fellowship). We are confident we will get it," Beant Kaur said. 'We know that only studies can take us out of poverty," she said, attributing their success to hard work and determination. The three sisters also have a brother, who has been dealing with a health issue for the past some time. The youngest, Hardeep, cleared the UGC-NET for the second time in a row and is training her eyes on getting a JRF in Punjabi. Bikkar Singh, their father, said he was glad to see her daughters getting what they wanted. 'The sole credit is their hard work. Their own determination has led to their success," he said. 'All three daughters have made me proud." Bikkar Singh said the three worked in a private school for some time to meet their expenses. The candidates, upon clearing the UGC-NET, become eligible to apply for the post of assistant professor. Those who qualify for the JRF can also receive a monthly stipend to pursue research and a PhD.
