What an edition! While researching the cover story, i realised that the issue is not limited to India - it is an international problem. Public health is a topic that I care about a lot, but knowledge on the topic is rather limited. It takes something like an 80% shortage to jolt one out of the collective indifference (go on, google that word). Read about the shortage of rabies vaccine in India in today's edition.
The second piece of news is important for India's international relations. The US Secretary of State is in India.
Page 2 has the usual Hindi, Sanskrit, and English wisdom. There is Word Magic and a picture puzzle that took a long time to make.
Page 3 has the Editorial and the next part of Priyanka aunty's special series on studying abroad. This week, I have been able to fit a Digital Resource Directory also. You can cut out these digital resource cards and keep them in your personal digital resources list.
Pages 4,5 and 6 are Chandamama Fan Club.
Page 7 is a continuation of the Rabies vaccine shortage story and has piano notes sent in by Angad Singh - a contributor who joined the weekly contribution bandwagon after the Hyderabad Readers' Meet.
Page 8 has Sports News, an original joke by Ishaan Kaila, and a poem that i wrote specially for you. Ayush Moitras Bob Mania is as hilarious as ever, though I feel that he is actually getting better every week.
Enjoy the edition, dear readers.
