Bengaluru (Karnataka) [India], July 29: In a world increasingly driven by convenience and technology, Dharmayana, a faith-tech startup, is redefining how Hindus stay connected to their religious and spiritual roots. Bootstrapped in 2024, Dharmayana aims to be the authentic digital companion for holistic Hindu living across all dimensions — Aachara (rituals and customs), Shastra (astrology and allied services), Bhakti (devotion), Adhyayana (scriptures and culture), Dhaana (donations), and Svastya (health and wellness).

“Hinduism is incredibly rich but fragmented, and can be hard to navigate — especially for those in nuclear families seeking dharmic guidance,” said Mohan, Founder of Dharmayana and a seasoned leader from Amazon, Microsoft, Yahoo, Ola, and Halodoc. “We are building Dharmayana to make authentic rituals and spiritual wisdom accessible, trusted, and easy to integrate into modern daily life.”

Dharmayana’s early traction reflects strong fundamentals, driven by product–market fit and organic adoption. The platform now serves over 500,000 users, with 100,000+ monthly active users. In January 2025, it secured $500K in pre-seed funding, backed by industry veterans and former colleagues from companies like Grab, Ola, Halodoc, LinkedIn, Amazon, and Motorola.

Targeting India’s $56 billion Hindu spiritual market, much of which remains offline, Dharmayana is now preparing for its next phase: scaling nationally and becoming a category leader in the faith-tech space. The company is planning its first institutional round in 2026 to fuel this expansion.

A Daily Spiritual Companion, Built for the Modern Hindu

Dharmayana is designed to build daily engagement and habit formation through features like the Panchanga (Hindu calendar), daily prayers, festival guides, personalized predictions, and guided dhyana — all free to use.

The platform also offers affordable and high-trust services such as Archana, Chadav, Kundali consultations, and a Free Birthday Pooja, helping users ease into digital spiritual experiences. This approach has driven strong early value realization in a category where digital adoption is still evolving.

As trust deepens, users naturally progress to premium offerings — including custom handwritten kundalis, astrology consultations, and guided rituals at sacred sites like Kashi, Rameshwaram, and Brindavan. This thoughtful value ladder has helped Dharmayana achieve both retention and early monetization.

“Dharmayana is a Daily Hindu App — by blending intuitive design with timeless tradition, we’ve created a spiritual companion that helps seekers stay meaningfully connected to their roots,” Mohan concludes.

Indore (Madhya Pradesh) [India], July 28: Sixty-five-year-old Lalaram Yadav from Jaipur had nearly given up hope. With his haemoglobin levels dangerously low—hovering around 6 to 7 grams—and platelet counts fluctuating between 10,000 and 15,000, his condition was dire. Multiple consultations with leading specialists across India brought only one response: “There is no cure.” Diagnosed with Aplastic Anemia, a rare and potentially fatal blood disorder, Lalaram’s future looked bleak—until he turned to homeopathy.

Under the care of Dr. A.K. Dwivedi, a senior homeopathic practitioner based in Indore and former Scientific Advisory Board member of the Central Council for Research in Homeopathy (CCRH), Ministry of AYUSH, Government of India, Lalaram began a new journey toward healing.

“Dr. Dwivedi reviewed all my reports thoroughly and started a personalised homoeopathic regimen. His words gave me strength and renewed my will to fight,” recalls Lalaram. “Today, I live a completely healthy, medicine-free life, something I had never imagined possible.”

From Smoker to Advocate

Lalaram openly admits that years of smoking bidis had contributed to his deteriorating health. Frequent episodes of nosebleeds and mouth bleeding had become routine. “After starting the treatment, I quit smoking entirely. Now, I urge others to steer clear of tobacco and embrace a healthier lifestyle,” he says with conviction.

Aplastic Anemia: A Rare but Serious Condition

Aplastic Anemia is a rare disease in which the bone marrow fails to produce sufficient red blood cells, white blood cells, and platelets, leading to fatigue, infections, and uncontrolled bleeding. Conventional treatment options are limited, often invasive, and expensive, leaving many patients with few choices.

A Holistic Approach to Healing

With over 27 years of clinical experience, Dr. A.K. Dwivedi has successfully treated numerous patients suffering from Aplastic Anemia using individualized homeopathic treatments, particularly utilizing LM (50 millesimal) potencies. His method has led to significant improvements and, in many cases, full recoveries.

In addition to his clinical practice, Dr. Dwivedi is the founder of the ‘Anemia-Free India’ campaign—a national initiative aimed at spreading awareness about anemia and promoting homeopathy as a safe, effective alternative. His team regularly organizes free health camps, awareness drives, and educational programs to empower communities with the knowledge of alternative healthcare options.

A Message of Hope and Possibility

Lalaram Yadav’s recovery is not just a medical success—it is a beacon of hope for countless others battling complex health challenges. Once reliant on constant medical interventions, he now leads a normal life and serves as an inspiration to others.

Thanks to Dr. Dwivedi’s unwavering dedication, patients who were once dependent on repeated blood transfusions are now enjoying drug-free, vibrant lives. Widely recognized as “The Anemia Awareness Crusader,” Dr. Dwivedi continues to redefine the boundaries of integrative medicine—bringing new light to patients where conventional hope had once faded.

New Delhi [India], July 28:  In a major initiative to make quality higher education more affordable and accessible, leading UGC and NAAC-approved Indian universities have announced an exclusive 80% scholarship for students enrolling in online undergraduate (UG) and postgraduate (PG) degree programs.

Under this new scheme, UG students who pay the entire three-year course fee upfront and PG students who pay the full two-year course fee in advance will be eligible for an 80% reduction in tuition fees. This unique offer is aimed at supporting students who want to commit to their academic goals while benefiting from massive fee savings.

The scholarship applies to programs offered by top universities such as Sikkim Manipal University, Chandigarh University, Amity University Online, LPU Online, Parul University, Jain Online, and Shoolini University. All these universities are UGC-approved and NAAC-accredited, ensuring that students receive recognized and credible degrees accepted for jobs and higher studies worldwide.

Alongside the student scholarship program, universities have also introduced an innovative franchise model for EdTech startups and education consultants. This franchise opportunity allows entrepreneurs to partner with multiple universities and earn up to 70–80% commission per admission. The franchise fee is ₹5,00,000 for 10 university tie-ups and ₹10,00,000 for 20 university tie-ups, giving partners instant access to a wide network of reputed institutions.

The franchise model provides complete support, including advanced CRM systems, expert marketing tools, and admission guidance, making it easy for new startups to operate without building university partnerships from scratch. Importantly, students can study and appear for examinations online from anywhere in India, making these programs flexible and convenient.

For example, in an Online MBA program with an annual fee of ₹1,00,000, a student paying the entire two-year fee upfront would pay only ₹40,000 after the 80% scholarship. Similarly, for an Online BBA program with a three-year fee of ₹2,25,000, the total cost after scholarship would be just ₹45,000.

This dual initiative benefits both students and entrepreneurs. Students gain affordable, globally recognized degrees, while franchise partners have an opportunity to build a profitable, scalable business in India’s booming online education market.

New Delhi [India], July 28: Founded by visionary entrepreneur Aanchal Gupta, Agents Stack delivers a transformative portfolio of consulting services spanning cybersecurity, cloud optimisation, ESG efficiency, GIS-based utilities, MES, ERP, and Compliance AI. With a future-focused approach, the firm empowers businesses to navigate complexity through tailored, tech-driven solutions. Built on a foundation of state-of-the-art technology and experienced leadership, the firm is already advising bigwigs in Tech, Maritime, FMCG, transmission, and banking sectors, and is ready to redefine modern operations excellence.

A Transition-Born Breakthrough

Aanchal’s journey began with an unsettling urge to break new ground, much earlier than Agents Stack was even imagined. She comes from a conventional, middle-class family living in a small village of Rajasthan. The shift from a high-paying job to entrepreneurship was indeed what posed the very first challenge of convincing her family for this major step. Aanchal had carved out an incredible career for herself while working with global companies such as McKinsey, GE, Dow, and Cloudflare. Despite the allure of high salaries and security, she was instead driven by a deeper aspiration: to create something substantial, impactful, and globally scalable.

After exploring sustainability and solar-focused startups, Aanchal realized her true purpose lay in creating global impact and fostering confidence through innovation. She made the bold decision to leave her corporate career, carefully planned a one-year financial runway using her savings and stock options, and laid the foundation for Agents Stack through a strategic and disciplined transition.

Portfolio: Solutions, Strategy & Scale

Agents Stack comes into the market with a well-defined, concentrated solution set that has the full potential to address critical business problems in the following areas:

• AI-driven cybersecurity & cloud optimization – Cloud cost reduction, security posture enhancement, and streamlining operations controls.
• ESG & sustainability consulting – Integrating energy, water, fuel efficiency, and supply chain sustainability by design, not compliance.
• Government GIS solutions – Combining geospatial data with utility infrastructure for predictive maintenance, lower downtime, and enhanced public service delivery.
• MES & ERP modernization – Scaling manufacturing productivity, digital workflows, and cross‑functional visibility.
• End‑to‑end AI transformation – Providing customized AI solutions backed by experienced professionals in security, sustainability, infrastructure, and analytics.

Whether it be any government agencies or large-scale banks and shipping firms, Agents Stack provides scaled, customizable digital transformation programs with ultimate professionalism and efficiency.

Efficiency in sync with Integrity

When asked to shed some light on her venture’s mission and vision, Aanchal quoted, “Efficiency through AI, guided by human experience and discipline of data, is our guiding ethos.” Differing from most tech-led consultancies, Agents Stack unites technology and governance: operations are supported by AI and automation, yet responsibility lies in the hands of senior leaders who established their reputations on ethics and excellence.

This two-track strategy guarantees solutions aren’t only smart but also compliant, reliable, and value-based. At Agents Stack, Aanchal has ensured that emerging talent is purposefully coupled with seasoned mentors, producing a governed innovation, embracing the workforce. Data-driven decision-making is appreciated internally and in client outputs, which makes the whole process seamless as well as transparent.

Challenges, Commitment & Cultural Shift

Aanchal’s entrepreneurial journey has been anything but easy. Transitioning from a thriving career in cybersecurity to bootstrapping her own venture came with its own set of highs and lows. Navigating this shift also meant recalibrating family dynamics especially with two young children and a partner who is an entrepreneur himself. As roles evolved at home, the boundaries between work, time, and shared responsibilities were tested, adding to the many challenges she faced in her early days of building Agents Stack.

But this trying time strengthened Agents  Stack’s fundamental culture: grit, grounding, and family-oriented commitment. The staff, consisting of senior experts and creative upstarts alike, is united by a greater goal: individual development combined with social difference. At the heart of Agents Stack lies an extraordinary ensemble of minds, a symphony of intellect and imagination. This isn’t just a team; it’s a collective of creators, thinkers, and visionaries, each bringing a unique facet of brilliance to the table. From a designer who moonlights as a musician and orchestrates live events, to a novelist weaving narratives that inspire, creativity pulses through their veins.

“Our marketing expertise is spearheaded by individuals who’ve crafted some of the most iconic campaigns for brands like Fevicol and Amul, while our core operations are fortified by decades of domain mastery in cybersecurity, ESG, GIS, and ERP. It’s a rare blend of strategic depth and artistic expression, where each member doesn’t just bring skills, they bring soul.

But what truly sets us apart is that we dream beyond business. One teammate aspires to build a sanctuary for tigers. Another is working toward creating a mechanism that empowers women and underprivileged children, not merely an NGO, but a movement of restoration and dignity.

In a nutshell, Agents Stack is not just building a company. We are building a conscious community where innovation meets intention, and where internal collaboration fuels external impact. Together, we are not only solving hard problems, we’re shaping a future that honors passion, purpose, and the power of collective change,” shared Aanchal.

Building a World‑Better Workplace

Looking six years into the future, Aanchal sees an entirely AI-based consulting process, frictionless on the technology side, highly human in management. The firm will keep introducing new innovations: hardware, software, energy-tech, health, and entertainment.

Agents  Stack intends to adopt adaptable work practices (remote-first with flexible hubs), allowing employees to juggle passion, family, and job. With energy security at the heart of global stability, the firm is convinced that optimized energy could transform geopolitics, welfare, and sustainability.

Why Agents Stack Make a Difference

Agents Stack is not merely another IT consultancy; it’s the convergence of deep technical innovation and human-guided governance. It enables customers to reduce cost, improve security, achieve ESG objectives, maximize infrastructure, and leverage AI, while placing their trust in a team that is concerned not only with outcomes but with long-term relationships.

As the globe faces new challenges, from climate change to cyber threats, Agents Stack is designed for impact. Its investment portfolio is contemporary, adaptable, and demanding. Its purpose is defined while its leadership is tested!

Ranchi (Jharkhand) [India], July 28: Government school students in Jharkhand are recording unprecedented academic gains, with several districts surging to the top of state rankings, backed by a tech-driven learning program known as Sampurna Shiksha Kavach by Filo.

The initiative, supported by district administrations and powered by Filo, an AI-backed platform, offers 24×7 live personal teachers to every student. The model provides students real-time access to expert tutors and personalized learning tools, particularly aimed at board exams and competitive entrance tests.

In this year’s Class 12 Jharkhand Academic Council (JAC) results, Latehar district jumped from 13th in 2023 to 1st in 2025. The district also received the Gold Award at the National E-Governance Awards. Koderma ranked second, with 10 JEE Mains and three JEE Advanced qualifiers from government schools, including one student who secured All India Rank 759.

“We’ve seen a big shift in mindset. Earlier, students would hesitate to even ask questions. Now they’re connecting to tutors even late at night before exams,” said Tripti Bharti, principal of District CM School in Latehar.

In conflict-affected West Singhbhum, government schools using SSK saw an 87.9% pass rate in Science, compared to 73.8% in non-SSK schools. Khunti recorded a 30-point gap between SSK and non-SSK results, with 26 students from government schools making it to engineering colleges including NITs.

“Initially, I wasn’t sure how many students would use the 24×7 support,” said Minu Baraik, principal of KGBV Kalamati. “But I noticed they were gaining interest in Science and Maths. Now, I remind them personally to use it.”

Dumka, a district with consistent use of the platform for three years, reported a Science pass rate jump from 74.7% in 2023 to 88.4% in 2025, while non-SSK schools in the district fell to 54.2%. In Godda district, Science pass percentage rose by 8.2%, with SSK schools at 84% vs. 73.5% in others. 

“The best part is it’s not just helping toppers. Even average students are improving. Many girls now talk about their careers and futures,” said Sapna Rani Das, principal of KGBV CM Chaibasa.

Students say the around-the-clock access made a difference.

“I had always dreamt of cracking JEE but didn’t know how to get there,” said Aditya Prakash from SS+2 High School, Koderma, who scored 99.15 percentile in JEE Advanced. “A teacher from IIT Delhi kept believing in me, even when I didn’t.”

Anwesha Singh, CBSE state topper from Latehar, said, “There are thousands of videos online, but they can’t answer your doubts when you’re stuck at 2 a.m. This support is live, it’s human, and it helped me every time I panicked before tests.”

Filo says over 30,000 students across Jharkhand now use the platform.

“Sampurna Shiksha Kavach is not just a model of tech adoption, it’s a model of listening to students,” said Imbesat Ahmad, co-founder of Filo. “We built tools to ensure no student falls behind. The credit goes to students and administrators who believed in the vision.”

With three national awards and rising results in remote and underserved regions, the AI-powered SSK model is emerging as a scalable solution for improving public education outcomes.

This grants NHC Foods the rights to manufacture a range of beverages and similar products under Lotmor’s ‘Nature Day’ brand. The strategic move aligns with NHC Foods’ strategy to diversify its portfolio beyond exports and agricultural commodities.

The company plans to leverage this tie-up to expand its footprint in India’s organised retail sector, with a focused entry into leading chains. NHC aims to capture the growing demand for quality packaged beverages and allied FMCG products driven by evolving consumer lifestyles and preferences.

Commenting on the MoU, Satyam Joshi, the newly appointed Managing Director of NHC Foods Limited, said, “This MoU with Lotmor marks a defining moment for NHC Foods as we step into India’s thriving retail sector. Our strengths in manufacturing, quality assurance, and distribution, combined with Lotmor’s product innovation, will enable us to deliver exceptional value to the consumers. This is the beginning of a long-term transformation for us.

Highlights:

• NHC Foods Limited has entered a strategic MoU with Lotmor Brands Private Limited to manufacture beverages and similar products under Lotmor’s ‘Nature Day’ brand, marking its diversification beyond exports and agri-commodities.
• Financial performance for FY 2024-25 shows strong growth, with revenue rising 63.1% to Rs. 341.41 crore and net profit increased 184.7% to Rs. 6.69 crore, reflecting operational efficiency and business momentum.
• An EGM held on July 18, approved increasing authorised share capital from Rs. 65 crores to         Rs. 100 crore and issuing 6.5 crore convertible warrants on a preferential basis to Mr. Joshi.

” Mr. Joshi’s elevation from Executive Director to Managing Director follows the company’s strategic shift under new leadership. An Extraordinary General Meeting (EGM) recently approved several resolutions, including an increase in authorised share capital from Rs. 65 crore to Rs. 100 crore, and the issuance of 6.5 crore convertible warrants on a preferential basis to Mr. Joshi.

Hyderabad (Telangana) [India], July 28: In the dynamic landscape of education, genuine transformation often hinges on bold ideas and the visionary leaders capable of inspiring their adoption. Hyderabad is now witnessing such a moment, as Hari Chandana IAS, the city’s distinguished Collector, champions a revolutionary pedagogical concept: U-shaped seating in schools. This initiative, simple in its premise yet profound in its potential impact, is a testament to honest officers like her who are genuinely committed to making the school children’s future very bright.

She is not popular and famous without any reason. Now this proves why. Hari Chandana’s widespread recognition and influence are deeply rooted in her consistent track record of innovation, genuine commitment to public welfare, and ability to deliver tangible results. From her celebrated role as an “Eco Warrior” transforming urban waste into valuable resources, to her proactive efforts in youth welfare like the anti-drug campaigns, she has repeatedly demonstrated leadership that is both visionary and deeply practical. It is this authentic approach that earns her the public’s trust and makes her a compelling force for change.

The conventional classroom setup, with rows of desks, often inadvertently creates passive learners and disconnects students from the teaching-learning process. The U-shaped arrangement, by contrast, brings every student into direct view, encouraging active participation, fostering peer-to-peer interaction, and ensuring no child feels marginalized in the “backbenches.” It’s a sincere shift from a teacher-centric monologue to a student-centric dialogue, a game-changer for fostering critical thinking and collaborative skills.

The Power of Belief: Engaging Stakeholders in a Revolutionary Idea

Implementing a change of this magnitude in the foundational structure of education is not merely an administrative directive; it’s a cultural transformation that demands the strong belief and unwavering commitment of all stakeholders. Teachers must embrace new teaching methodologies, school managements need to reconfigure spaces, parents must understand the pedagogical benefits, and students themselves must adapt to a more interactive setting. This is precisely where the influence and strategic approach of a popular IAS officer like Hari Chandana become an unparalleled asset.

Hari Chandana: The Catalyst for Educational Revolution

As Hyderabad Collector, Hari Chandana possesses a unique combination of qualities that make her ideally suited to champion this revolutionary educational initiative:

•  Credibility and Visionary Leadership: Her proven success in diverse sectors lends immense credibility to any new idea she champions. When a widely respected and popular IAS officer like Hari Chandana advocates for U-shaped seating, it immediately elevates the concept from a mere suggestion to a serious, actionable reform, born out of a genuine desire for fundamental improvement in education. Her vision can cut through skepticism and inspire confidence among educators and parents alike.
•  Focus on Youth and Holistic Development: The initiative directly benefits the core development of children. Hari Chandana’s established commitment to youth welfare (as seen in her anti-drug campaigns and other child-focused programs) resonates deeply. Her passion for nurturing young minds will be a powerful driving force in convincing stakeholders that this is genuinely for the students’ betterment, reflecting her honest dedication to making the school children’s future very bright.
•  Ability to Mobilize and Engage Stakeholders: Implementing U-shaped seating requires convincing thousands of teachers, school principals, parent-teacher associations, and even education department officials. Hari Chandana’s exceptional public connect, her ability to communicate complex ideas simply, and her knack for fostering partnerships (which characterized her “Eco Warrior” projects) will be instrumental in building a consensus and securing the essential buy-in from all involved parties.
•  Practical Implementation Prowess: Beyond the conceptual phase, the physical reconfiguration of classrooms and the training of teachers are significant challenges. Hari Chandana’s administrative acumen and her track record of turning innovative ideas into tangible realities, managing logistics, and ensuring execution efficiency, position her as the ideal leader to navigate these practical hurdles. She can inspire belief that this change is not just desirable but also achievable.
•  Inspiring Trust and Fostering Adoption: When a popular and effective leader like Hari Chandana champions a change rooted in a clear, sincere intention, it instills a greater sense of trust and encourages widespread adoption. Her advocacy can transform a potentially intimidating structural shift into an exciting opportunity for schools to embrace modern pedagogical practices and prepare students for a collaborative future.

The call for U-shaped seating in Hyderabad schools is more than just a classroom redesign; it’s an investment in a dynamic learning future. With Hari Chandana IAS leading this charge, leveraging her immense influence and proven ability to foster strong belief among all stakeholders, Hyderabad is set to redefine its educational landscape, creating more active, engaged, and empowered learners who are truly at the center of their own learning journey.
