Skating to Musical Glory

Amid the graceful swirls and spins of a skating rink, a young girl from Chennai, Tamil Nadu, redefined the boundaries of talent and perseverance. At just six years old, Victoria Isaac achieved the extraordinary: she has set the record for being the youngest to play different musical instruments while skate dancing. Her awe-inspiring performance captivated audiences and earned her a spot in the India Book of Records.

In a dazzling display of coordination and artistry, Victoria combined two distinct disciplines, skate dancing and live music, seamlessly. She played the violin, guitar, and melodica during separate performances, all while gliding and dancing on skates. The total performance lasted an impressive 8 minutes and 13 seconds, recorded on February 17, 2024, when Victoria was only 6 years, 9 months, and 29 days old. Her remarkable achievement was officially confirmed on August 23, 2024, further cementing her place in India’s rich tapestry of record-setting youth.

Victoria’s performance is not merely a feat of technical skill; it is an example of her exceptional focus, balance, and innate musicality. Playing even a single instrument demands dexterity and concentration. Combining three distinct instruments with the dynamic and physically demanding act of skate dancing elevates her achievement to an almost superhuman level. Each

instrument brought its own challenges, yet Victoria handled them with an ease that belied her age. The melodica’s breath control, the violin’s precise bowing, and the guitar’s finger coordination, all executed while skating, showcased a discipline that left spectators spellbound.

Victoria’s journey began with a passion for both music and skating at a tender age. With unwavering support from her parents and rigorous training under expert mentors, she mastered both art forms. Her story is one of resilience and dedication, as she spent countless hours perfecting each performance to synchronise her musical notes with her movements on the rink.

Victoria’s achievement has drawn widespread acclaim, with audiences and media celebrating her as a prodigy who symbolises the boundless potential of young minds. According to a report on ‘Tell My Story’, her skating performances have always been vibrant and energetic, but her ability to integrate live music into her routines has brought a new dimension to her talent. She was lauded as a ‘young musician and skate-dancing virtuoso,’ a title that aptly captures her unique combination of skills.

The record for being the youngest to play different musical instruments while skate dancing was set by Victoria Isaac of Chennai, Tamil Nadu, who played violin, guitar and melodica while moving and dancing on skates.

Beyond the accolades and recognition, Victoria’s accomplishment serves as an inspiration to children and adults alike. Her journey underscores the importance of nurturing

creativity and pushing one’s limits. It reminds us that age is no barrier to innovation and that extraordinary talent can manifest in the most unexpected ways.

As Victoria continues her journey, her achievement raises expectations for even greater milestones ahead. For now, she has carved her name in history, proving that the rhythm of music and the grace of skating can harmonise in ways that are both beautiful and inspiring. At just six, Victoria Isaac has taught the world that dreams, no matter how ambitious, are achievable with passion and perseverance.

Spinning Unity, Weaving Legacy

The serene lawns of MGM University, Chhatrapati Sambhajinagar, Maharashtra, came alive with the hum of 2565 charkhas spinning in unison on October 2, 2024. Marking Gandhi Jayanti, this impressive gathering of staff and students set a record for the maximum people spinning the charkha, a milestone officially verified by the Asia Book of Records (ABR) adjudicator. This extraordinary event was a tribute to Mahatma Gandhi’s principles of self-reliance (Swavalamban) and sustainability. The iconic charkha, a symbol of India’s freedom movement and selfsustenance, became the centrepiece of a powerful message about Khadi and sustainable technology.

MGM University, Chhatrapati Sambhajinagar, Maharashtra, set a record for the maximum people spinning the charkha, wherein 2565 staff and students of the University participated in spinning the charkha.

Organised meticulously at the JNEC Lawns of MGM University, the event highlighted the enduring relevance of spinning the charkha in today’s quest for sustainable living. Participants from all walks of campus life, including faculty members and students, contributed to this historic moment. They embraced the spirit of unity and purpose, spinning yarn with dedication and enthusiasm. The sight of rows upon rows of individuals turning the wheels of history was as inspiring as it was symbolic, a vivid reminder of the strength that collective efforts can bring to meaningful causes.

The event was not just about setting a record; it was a celebration of values deeply rooted in Indian culture. Khadi, the handspun fabric, has always been more than cloth, it is an ideology. By engaging in charkha spinning, MGM University reinforced the importance of promoting sustainable practices and reviving a tradition that aligns with environmental conservation. The activity also underscored the role of selfreliance in a world increasingly leaning toward mass production and rapid industrialisation.

MGM University’s leadership played a pivotal role in the success of the event. Their vision to align education with cultural values and sustainable practices resonated strongly in the initiative. By involving the university’s community on such a large scale, the organisers created not just a record-breaking attempt but also a memorable learning experience for all participants.

The event’s timing, coinciding with Gandhi Jayanti, added a profound layer of significance. On this day, celebrating the Father of the Nation’s birth anniversary, the university revived and honoured his teachings in a tangible and impactful way. The participants’ commitment to the cause highlighted the timeless relevance of Gandhi’s vision in addressing modern challenges such as environmental sustainability and the need for ethical production practices.

Rekha Singh, the adjudicator from the Asia Book of Records, expressed her admiration for the event’s organisation and spirit. “This record stands as a testament to how deeply ingrained Gandhian values are in Indian society. It’s heartening to witness such a large-scale commitment to promoting Khadi and sustainability,” she said.

As the event concluded, the participants carried home more than just the memory of being part of a record-breaking feat. They took with them a renewed sense of responsibility toward adopting sustainable practices and preserving cultural heritage. MGM University’s achievement serves as an inspiring example of how educational institutions can play a critical role in blending tradition with modern awareness for a better future. This historic event has added another feather in MGM University’s cap and left an indelible mark on the journey of sustainability and self-reliance.

Modak Lights Tradition

Amid the bustling streets of Mumbai during Ganesh Chaturthi, a dazzling spectacle captured the imagination of thousands. The making of the largest illuminated Modak installation, a record-breaking feat by Signify India Innovations Limited, drew crowds eager to witness this extraordinary blend of tradition and technology. Installed at the intersection of Chintamani Ganpati Mandal and Lal Bagh Cha Raja in Mumbai, this illuminated marvel became the centrepiece of the festival’s celebrations.

Towering with a base diameter of 17 feet, a middle diameter of 24.5 feet, and a height of 18.5 feet, the Modak shone brightly, illuminated by energy-efficient Philips-brand lights. Its intricate design and vibrant glow resonated with the spirit of Ganesh Chaturthi, symbolising prosperity and devotion. This roadside installation, which remained on display from September 7 to September 17, 2024, was a grand tribute to Lord Ganesha, who is often depicted with a modak in hand, symbolising his love for the sweet treat.

As the installation came to life, it sparked widespread curiosity and admiration. Videos and images of the massive Modak flooded social media, particularly Instagram, where Philips Lighting India’s reel showcased its construction and grandeur. The installation not only became a hotspot for devotees and tourists but also underscored the evolving ways of celebrating age-old traditions with modern innovation.

The record-setting feat was validated by Seema Manikkoth, an adjudicator for both the Asia Book of Records and the India Book of Records. On September 7, 2024, the installation was officially recognised, adding a prestigious milestone to Signify India’s legacy of innovative lighting solutions.

This project highlighted the company’s commitment to blending creativity and sustainability. With its headquarters in Gurugram, Haryana, Signify India is a global leader in connected lighting systems, providing solutions that enhance

the aesthetics of spaces while minimising energy consumption. The Modak installation stood as a testament to this vision, embodying both cultural reverence and technological prowess.

The Modak became more than just an installation; it was a conversation starter. As crowds gathered to marvel at its illuminated beauty, discussions arose about how such initiatives merge tradition with environmental consciousness. Philipsbrand lights, known for their durability and energy efficiency, underscored the installation’s sustainable approach.

Beyond its physical presence, the Modak installation represented a unifying spirit during the Ganpati festival. Its location, strategically chosen near iconic Ganpati Mandals, amplified its significance, turning it into a symbol of collective celebration. As one spectator aptly put it, “The Modak is not just a sweet for Ganesha; it’s a blessing for all of us. Seeing it illuminated like this makes the festival even more special.”

The success of the installation has set a new benchmark for integrating art and innovation into cultural festivities. As the festival concluded and the Modak’s lights dimmed, its memory continued to shine brightly in the hearts of those who witnessed it. Signify India’s achievement is a glowing example of how modern technology can enrich traditional celebrations, inspiring future endeavours to honour heritage in equally spectacular ways.

Foamy Tribute to Ganpati

At first glance, the towering 8.15-foot idol of Lord Ganesha at Pune’s Grand Highstreet Mall was mesmerising. Upon closer inspection, awe deepened as visitors realised this lifesize masterpiece was not sculpted from traditional materials like clay or plaster but from an unexpected medium: shaving foam and cream. The innovative creation, crafted by VI-John Healthcare India LLP, set a new record for the largest Lord Ganesha idol sculpted with shaving foam and cream.

The idol, measuring 8.15 feet in height, 5 feet in length, and 3 feet in width, was a stunning display of ingenuity and devotion. Every intricate detail, from Lord Ganesha’s serene expression to the ornaments adorning his form, was sculpted entirely with VI-John shaving foam and cream, making this achievement as creative as it was reverent. The installation was on display at the Grand Highstreet Mall in Pune’s Hinjawadi, Rajiv Gandhi Infotech Park, Pimpri-Chinchwad, from September 7 to September 17, 2024, drawing crowds eager to witness this unique blend of artistry and innovation.

The record-breaking attempt was officially recognised by the Asia Book of Records (ABR) on September 7, 2024. The claim was verified by ABR adjudicator Dr Chitra Jain, who praised the ingenuity and precision involved in crafting such a detailed structure using an unconventional medium.

The idol not only reflected the creative spirit of its creators but also served as a powerful statement about innovation in cultural celebrations. VI-John Healthcare India LLP, a renowned name in personal care products, undertook this ambitious project to showcase the versatility and quality of its shaving foam and cream. This endeavour also highlights the company’s commitment to celebrating Indian festivals in meaningful and memorable ways.

By sculpting the idol entirely from shaving products, VI-John has reimagined traditional craftsmanship with a modern twist. The softness and pliability of the foam and cream allowed the artists to create intricate details, while the firm texture ensured durability throughout the festival.

Situated prominently in the Grand Highstreet Mall, the idol became a magnet for devotees, art enthusiasts, and curious onlookers alike. Its placement in a bustling urban hub ensured

maximum visibility, with countless visitors stopping to admire and photograph the one-of-a-kind creation. The unique nature of the idol also made it a social media sensation, with photos and videos of the installation garnering widespread attention online.

An Instagram post from VI-John captured the essence of the creation, showcasing the meticulous sculpting process and the final result, which was both artistic and awe-inspiring. The installation also served as an excellent example of how modern brands can engage with cultural traditions while showcasing their innovation and relevance.

The record-breaking idol was more than just a visual spectacle; it was a celebration of ingenuity and the evolving ways in which festivals are observed. For the creators, it represented a harmonious blend of tradition and modernity. For the audience, it served as a reminder of how creativity can enhance the joy and spirit of devotion.

The idol left behind not just memories but also an enduring message: that devotion, when combined with innovation, can create something truly extraordinary. The shaving foam and cream Ganpati by VI-John Healthcare is a glowing example of the endless possibilities of blending culture with creativity.

Scaling New Heights

Alone rider stood atop Umling La Pass, the world’s highest motorable road at 19,024 feet, under a pale blue Ladakh sky. His steed, a robust Suzuki V-Strom SX, gleamed with traces of dust and glory from the extraordinary journey it had just undertaken. The sprawling panorama of barren mountains and icy winds bore silent witness to an unprecedented feat that had set the bar high for adventure and endurance in the world of motorcycling.

On September 12, 2024, Suzuki Motorcycle India Pvt Ltd carved its name into the annals of the India Book of Records with a feat that epitomised the unyielding spirit of exploration. The record, titled highest top nine mountain passes covered within 24 hours by a two-wheeler in India, celebrated a journey that was as audacious as it was inspiring.

The mission began on September 11, 2024, at 7.01 pm, from Tanglang La, perched at a staggering altitude of 17,840 feet. Over the next 18 hours, the Suzuki V-Strom SX, a 250cc adventure machine, relentlessly tackled nine of India’s highest mountain passes in the rugged terrains of Ladakh. The rider navigated the challenges posed by Wari La, Khardung La, Chang La, Marsimik

La, Kaksang La, Photi La, Nurbula La, and Umling La, culminating at 1.01 pm the following day.

Covering an arduous distance of 780 kilometres, the V-Strom SX displayed impeccable reliability, power, and agility throughout the journey. This record-breaking ride showcased the bike’s exceptional performance in some of the world’s harshest conditions, marked by thin air, sub-zero temperatures, and the gruelling terrain of Ladakh’s mountainous expanse.

The feat was validated by India Book of Records adjudicator, Dr Pradeep Bhardwaj, who reviewed every aspect of the achievement to ensure its authenticity. The official confirmation of the record marked a proud moment for Suzuki Motorcycle India and the motorcycling community in India.

The Suzuki V-Strom SX has long been heralded as an ideal companion for adventure enthusiasts. Its advanced engineering and rider-friendly features have made it a popular choice among those who seek to conquer the uncharted. The significance of this achievement extends beyond the technical

and logistical triumph it represents. It underscores the growing enthusiasm for adventure motorcycling in India and the role of innovation in making such dreams a reality. The Suzuki V-Strom SX’s performance in this gruelling expedition serves as an inspiration to riders and manufacturers alike, proving that the limits of human endurance and mechanical prowess are boundless when paired with determination and vision.

In an era where adventure motorcycling is rapidly gaining momentum, this record serves as a rallying cry for those who dare to dream big and explore the impossible.

Making Marvel

Kitchens across Maharashtra and Goa came alive with the sound of kneading, rolling, and shaping as thousands of hands engaged in crafting modaks, a beloved Indian sweet traditionally offered to Lord Ganesha, on September 14, 2024. The aroma of freshly prepared delicacies mingled with the festive air, setting the stage for a unique community initiative that would go down in history.

Cadbury Oreo, in association with Lokmat Media Pvt Ltd, organised an extraordinary event that brought together 3202 participants to attempt a record-breaking feat, the maximum participation of people attempting to make modaks in a single day. This innovative effort combined the richness of tradition with a contemporary twist, inspiring households across the region to join hands virtually in creating modaks from the comfort of their homes.

Each modak was distinct, showcasing the creativity and culinary skills of participants. From classic steamed modaks with jaggery and coconut filling to experimental variants infused with Oreo flavours, the initiative celebrated diversity in culinary expression. Families gathered, children participated

enthusiastically, and the art of making modaks turned into a shared celebration of culture and togetherness.

The scale of participation and the spirit of innovation behind the event captured the attention of the Asia Book of Records (ABR). Adjudicator Seema Manikkoth meticulously reviewed the evidence, verifying every aspect of the attempt, and officially confirmed the record. The achievement underscored the community’s ability to adapt and innovate while preserving the essence of traditional festivals.

Lokmat Media Pvt Ltd, a leading media house in Maharashtra, played a crucial role in mobilising participants and spreading the message of this record-breaking initiative. Known for its strong regional presence and deep connection with local communities, Lokmat Media transformed the idea into a movement, reaching countless households through its platforms.

Cadbury Oreo, a brand synonymous with indulgence and innovation, brought its signature charm to the event, infusing a contemporary flavour into the age-old tradition of modakmaking. By blending tradition with a modern twist, Cadbury Oreo

reinforced its commitment to creating memorable experiences that resonate with Indian families.

By turning the simple act of making modaks into a historic event, Cadbury Oreo and Lokmat Media Pvt Ltd have set an example of how tradition can be reimagined to foster innovation and unity. As the record now stands, the story of these 3202 modak-makers serves as a reminder that even in the busiest of times, tradition has the power to bring people together, one sweet creation at a time.

Cadbury Oreo, in association with Lokmat Media, set a remarkable record for the maximum participation of people attempting to make modaks in a single day. People from Maharashtra and Goa took part in this initiative.

Postcards for Awareness

In a bustling office in Mumbai, thousands of handwritten postcards were stacked neatly, each carrying a powerful message of support and advocacy. The postcards, written by gynaecologists from across India, bore a unified pledge to promote breastfeeding awareness, reflecting a collective commitment to maternal and child health. This extraordinary initiative, spearheaded by Bharat Serums and Vaccines Limited (BSV), set a record for the maximum postcards written by gynaecologists to spread breastfeeding awareness. Held during World Breastfeeding Week (August 1-7, 2024), the campaign saw 4008 doctors from diverse corners of the country unite to address a vital health issue.

The postcards were not merely symbolic gestures. Each represented the doctor’s dedication to fostering a deeper understanding of breastfeeding’s benefits among mothers, families, and healthcare professionals. The messages encouraged overcoming cultural barriers, dispelling myths, and providing practical lactation support to mothers who often face challenges in breastfeeding their newborns.

The campaign was executed both physically and digitally, with BSV inviting gynaecologists and child specialists through emails to participate. Doctors from hospitals, clinics, and healthcare centres nationwide responded enthusiastically, penning heartfelt pledges and submitting them through postcards or a digital platform. Once collected, the postcards were sent to BSV’s headquarters in Mumbai, where they were reviewed and verified.

The Asia Book of Records adjudicator, Kashmira Shah, authenticated the claim on August 21, 2024, recognising BSV’s initiative as a landmark effort in raising breastfeeding awareness. This achievement stands as a testament to the healthcare community’s resolve to improve maternal and child health outcomes in India.

Bharat Serums and Vaccines

Limited, Maharashtra, set the record for the maximum postcards written by gynaecologists to spread breastfeeding awareness, wherein 4008 doctors pledged to raise such awareness.

BSV’s initiative aligns seamlessly with its broader Project Janani, launched in collaboration with ARTIST Academy, FOGSI (Federation of Obstetric and Gynaecological Societies of India), and SAFOG (South Asian Federation of Obstetrics and Gynaecology). Project Janani is a comprehensive programme designed to educate mothers about breastfeeding practices and address barriers such as societal norms, misinformation, and insufficient support. By equipping healthcare providers with the knowledge to guide mothers effectively, the project aims to ensure that more children receive the life-saving benefits of breastfeeding.

Breastfeeding is universally recognised as one of the most effective ways to improve the survival, health, and development of infants. However, despite its well-documented advantages, breastfeeding rates in India remain suboptimal due to a lack of awareness and the persistence of cultural stigmas. Campaigns like BSV’s postcard initiative and Project Janani are critical in

bridging this gap, providing both education and encouragement to mothers navigating the challenges of motherhood.

Bharat Serums and Vaccines Limited, a leading pharmaceutical company in India, has long been dedicated to advancing healthcare solutions and awareness campaigns. Known for its innovative approaches, BSV continues to champion maternal and neonatal health through initiatives that not only set records but also drive meaningful change.

This record-breaking effort underscores the transformative power of collective action. By rallying thousands of healthcare professionals around a common cause, BSV has taken a significant step toward ensuring that every mother has the support she needs to give her child the best possible start in life. The postcards may be small, but their impact is immeasurable, carrying messages of hope, education, and empowerment to families across the nation.

Peacocks in Full Bloom

The auditorium of Kanya Maha Vidyalaya (KMV), Jalandhar, Punjab, buzzed with energy on September 19, 2024, as 467 students came together to achieve a remarkable feat. Armed with cotton stationery kits and pastel colours, the students set their creativity in motion to draw and paint the national bird of India, the peacock. Over 70 minutes, the hall transformed into a vibrant canvas as 2762 unique peacock drawings came to life, each reflecting the participants’ artistic flair and love for the nation’s heritage.

This extraordinary initiative, led by the PG Department of Fashion Designing and the PG Department of Fine Arts at KMV, set a new record for the maximum number of drawings of the national bird of India made and painted by students. With each drawing carefully crafted and distinct from the rest, the attempt was not just a proof of artistic talent but also a celebration of India’s cultural identity and biodiversity.

The event began at precisely 1.35 pm, with students eagerly embracing the challenge under the watchful eyes of their mentors and coordinators. The clock ticked steadily, but the enthusiasm in the room was palpable as brushstrokes brought the peacocks’ feathers to life in vibrant pastel hues. By 2.45 pm, the auditorium was adorned with 2762 beautifully painted depictions of the majestic bird, symbolising unity in creativity and collective effort.

The record-setting attempt was meticulously documented and verified by Dr Pankaj Sital, an adjudicator from the India Book of Records (IBR). His presence lent an air of formality to the proceedings as he carefully reviewed the entries before confirming the achievement. The accomplishment was officially recognised by the IBR, marking yet another milestone for KMV, an institution celebrated for its innovative and socially meaningful endeavours.

Principal Atima Sharma Dwivedi expressed immense pride in the students and faculty who made the event a grand success. “This record is not just about numbers; it is about igniting a sense of pride and responsibility towards our nation’s heritage,” she said. She also praised the efforts of faculty members Dr

As the day drew to a close, the sight of thousands of colourful peacocks filled the hearts of participants and spectators alike with pride, ensuring that this memorable event would be etched in KMV’s legacy for years to come.

Rooted in Sustainability

Under the warm September sun, the grounds of Sarhad College of Arts, Commerce, and Science in Pune, Maharashtra, were abuzz with purpose and enthusiasm, wherein 1518 female students gathered to set a record that intertwined environmental stewardship and women’s health. With ecofriendly biodegradable pots in hand, the students planted an astounding 10,750 Aloe Vera saplings in just 30 minutes, creating a lush green symbol of sustainability and community action.

The feat, officially recognised by both the Asia Book of Records (ABR) and the India Book of Records (IBR), marked the most Aloe Vera saplings planted in biodegradable pots by females. The record attempt not only highlighted the power of collective action but also reinforced the importance of environmental conservation and the versatile benefits of Aloe Vera, a plant celebrated for its medicinal, skincare, and air-purifying properties.

The event began with the students, aged 16 to 28, gathering on the college grounds, each assigned biodegradable pots and Aloe Vera saplings. The air was filled with a sense of determination as participants worked in unison, carefully planting each sapling while adhering to sustainable practices. By the end of the 30 minutes, rows upon rows of green pots stretched across the grounds, a proof of the dedication of the participants. An adjudicator from both record books, Dr Chitra Jain, was present to oversee and validate the record-setting attempt. She announced the achievement, commending the students for their efficiency and commitment to making a positive impact.

skin, was chosen for its symbolic and practical significance. The plants were later distributed among students and local women stakeholders, further extending the campaign’s reach and ensuring the continuity of its environmental and health benefits.

Principal of Sarhad College, Dr Ramesh Shinde, lauded the efforts of the students and faculty who made the event possible.

“This initiative is a reflection of our commitment to fostering environmental responsibility and empowering women,” he said. He added that the event aligns with the college’s broader vision of promoting sustainable practices and raising awareness about ecological balance.

The record-setting campaign also emphasised the role of youth in driving environmental change. By engaging young women in a hands-on activity that directly contributes to

sustainability, Sarhad College demonstrated the power of education in creating a greener, healthier future. As the biodegradable pots were distributed, the impact of the initiative extended beyond the campus, reaching households and communities. Each Aloe Vera plant carried a message of hope and resilience, reminding recipients of the importance of nurturing both nature and oneself. This remarkable achievement

Iodine, a critical nutrient for Thyroid function, often falls short in the diets of many expectant mothers, highlighting the need for fortified interventions.

The initiative was strategically timed to coincide with World Iodine Deficiency Disorders Prevention Day, amplifying its impact and reinforcing its relevance. Pharmed Limited, a leading healthcare company, leveraged its extensive network to reach gynaecologists nationwide, urging them to take a proactive role in addressing iodine deficiency.

Participating doctors pledged to raise awareness among their patients and communities about the importance of iodine in preventing Thyroid complications during pregnancy. They committed to recommending iodine-fortified foods and supplements as part of prenatal care, thereby fostering a culture of preventive health.

Dr Meena Reddy, one of the participating gynaecologists, shared her perspective: “As healthcare providers, we see first-hand the challenges iodine deficiency can cause during

pregnancy. This pledge isn’t just a commitment, it’s a step toward empowering women with the knowledge and resources to safeguard their health and their babies’ futures.”

The campaign also included educational materials, workshops, and digital outreach to equip doctors with the latest insights on iodine fortification and its role in Thyroid health. Pharmed Limited emphasised a holistic approach, encouraging collaboration between healthcare professionals, policymakers, and the food industry to ensure the availability and accessibility of iodine-fortified products. At the heart of this initiative was the goal of driving long-term change. By engaging a record number of gynaecologists, Pharmed Limited aimed to create a ripple effect, where each doctor could influence hundreds of patients, ultimately reaching millions of households across India.

The Asia Book of Records acknowledged the scale and significance of the achievement, commending Pharmed Limited for its innovative approach to public health advocacy. Harish R, the adjudicator, highlighted how the campaign seamlessly

blended grassroots action with expert engagement to address a pressing health issue.

As the giant wave of pledges transitions into tangible outcomes, the impact of this campaign is expected to resonate far beyond the record books.

Let every morning be the Hunza Morning

How to stop craving of tea
