FIFA attempts to ease fan anxiety with in-stadia sensory rooms

* A 2024 Nigeria vs South Africa AFCON match resulted in a cardiac arrest of a fan, after a penalty was awarded against Nigeria, which spiked his cortisol levels. * A study by the New England Journal of Medicine found that in Germany, during the 2006 World Cup they hosted, “the incidence of cardiac emergencies was 2.66 times that during the control period.” * BBC reported in an Oxford University study that tested saliva from Brazilian fans during their historic 7-1 loss to Germany at the 2014 World Cup that levels of the hormone cortisol rocketed during the home defeat in the semi-final. It isn’t exactly new that watching football can prove to be dangerous, as it increases blood pressure and strain on the heart.

Published by Webster

On the same day, flights to the same sector, one airline charges Rs 8000 while the other airline charges Rs 18000 for the economy class,” the bench told Solicitor General Tushar Mehta, appearing for the Centre.

Govt proposes softer CAFE 2027 norms to ease pressure on automobile industry

Published by Webster

The government has proposed a softer set of Corporate Average Fuel Efficiency (CAFE) norms for the 2027–2032 period, offering relief to the domestic auto industry, NDTV Profit reported.  According to a revised draft prepared by the Ministry of Power in consultation with the Bureau of Energy Efficiency (BEE), the government has moved away from a rigid target framework in favour of a phased tightening approach.

The emission curve has been re-calibrated with a new slope formula — set at 0.00158 in FY28 and easing to 0.00131 by FY32 — allowing slightly higher fuel …
