Danish drugmaker Novo Nordisk on Friday launched its Type 2 diabetes injection, Ozempic, which has also gained global attention for its weight-loss benefits. Ozempic (injectable semaglutide) is a once-weekly treatment indicated as an add-on to diet and exercise for adults with uncontrolled Type 2 diabetes mellitus (T2DM).

Ozempic is now available in India as 0.25 mg, 0.5 mg and 1 mg in 'FlexTouch Pen' - an easy-to-use, once-weekly pen device, at a starting cost of Rs 2,200 per week. Each pen has four once-weekly doses. A patient prescribed Ozempic injection would start with a 0.25 mg dose for four weeks at a total cost of Rs 8,800.

Afterwards, as per diagnosis by the doctor, the patient moves to either the next phase, 'step' of 0.5 mg dose for at least four weeks costing Rs 10,170 or to the 'stay' stage of 1 mg dose per week with the monthly cost pegged at Rs 11,175, it said.

Citing World Health Organisation 2023-24 estimates, the company said India has 101 million (roughly 11.4% of its population) people living with diabetes, making it the second largest diabetes-affected population in the world after China. The country also has 136 million individuals with prediabetes and 254 million people living with generalised obesity, signalling an accelerating health challenge

Indian comedian Kapil Sharma's film Kis Kisko Pyaar Karoon 2 released in theatres today, December 12.

The sequel to the 2015 comedy follows Kapil Sharma's character Mohan, who is determined to marry the woman he truly loves - only to find himself accidentally committed to three women of different religions. The film promises humour, confusion and a fresh round of matrimonial mishaps.

Social media has been abuzz with mixed reactions to the film.

While some termed it a "Kapil Sharma show all the way", others felt the story was forced and the jokes recycled.

One Internet user said they had hit the jackpot with Kis Kisko Pyaar Karoon 2, while another expressed disappointment that the "same film" was being sold as a sequel a decade later.

Some angry remarks also read: " isn't just outdated - it is a textbook example of how to ruin a film" and "a letdown".

A Jaish-e-Mohammed terrorist armed with an AK rifle was arrested by the Border Security Force (BSF) in Jammu and Kashmir's Akhnoor sector on Friday while he was trying to infiltrate the border.

Abdul Khalik, a resident of Rajouri district's Budhal area, was working as an overground worker (OGW) for a terror organisation operating in Poonch and Rajouri.

Khalik had gone missing a few years back. Investigations revealed that he had crossed over to Pakistan for arms training and was caught near the International Border by alert BSF personnel while he was trying to infiltrate. He has been handed over to the police for further action.

This move is seen as part of Pakistan's attempt to revive terror activities in J&K by infiltrating local terrorists familiar with the region's terrain.
Security agencies are on high alert, with inputs suggesting Pakistan has reactivated 12 launch pads in Sialkot and Zafarwal areas opposite Samba, Kathua, and Jammu sectors, following a seven-month lull after Operation Sindoor.

Chandrayaan-3 Finds Active Electrical Environment Near Moon's South Pole.
India’s Chandrayaan-3 mission has revealed remarkable new details about the Moon’s South Pole, uncovering a surprisingly dynamic and electrically active environment near the surface.

Analysis of data collected by the Vikram lander between August 23 and September 3, 2023, provides the first-ever in situ measurements of the plasma conditions in this region, results that mark a milestone in lunar science.

Plasma, known as the fourth state of matter, is a mixture of charged particles, ions and free electrons, that can conduct electricity and respond to electromagnetic fields.
On the Moon, this plasma environment is shaped primarily by the solar wind, a continuous stream of high-energy charged particles from the Sun, and the photoelectric effect, in which sunlight knocks electrons from lunar surface atoms. These processes create a weak but variable lunar ionosphere that constantly interacts with changing electromagnetic conditions.

The Radio Anatomy of Moon Bound Hypersensitive ionosphere and Atmosphere Langmuir Probe (RAMBHA-LP) onboard the Vikram lander measured electron densities at Chandrayaan-3’s landing site, the Shiv Shakti Point, ranging between 380 and 600 electrons per cubic centimeter.

This is significantly higher than what was previously estimated from remote sensing data taken at higher altitudes. Even more striking, the electrons displayed high kinetic temperatures between 3,000 and 8,000 Kelvin, indicating intense energy in the near-surface environment.

The first blaze kicked off about 12.15pm on Thursday in the south-eastern suburb of Kenwick, quickly triggering an emergency warning for residents just before 1pm.

Locals bound by Welshpool Road East, Tonkin Highway, Kenwick Road, Brixton Street and Roe Highway in parts of Kenwick, Wattle Grove, Maddington and Beckenham were told to evacuate.

The fire was downgraded to a watch and act level around 7pm due to conditions easing overnight, however, there was still a threat to lives and homes.

The blaze began on Alton Street.

Department of Fire and Emergency Services south-east superintendent Peter Norman said strong winds had seen more than 93ha burnt in the bushland bounded by Welshpool Road, Roe and Tonkin Highway.
As of 4.30pm, he said homes were still under threat with embers sparking spot fires in rural properties.

“We have about 100 plus firefighters on scene still, this operation will go through the night into tomorrow,” he said.

“There are zero homes lost. We can confirm one shed but obviously fire has come up against our buildings and sheds but crews have done their best to keep it out.

Four more teenagers charged over stabbing at Ellenbrook Secondary College.
A 10th teenager has been charged over a stabbing at a Perth high school that sent a student to hospital with arm injuries and put the college in lockdown.

WA Police said on Wednesday afternoon a 14-year-old boy would face five charges over Monday's melee, including unlawful wounding, being armed in a way to cause fear and carrying a prohibited weapon.

He is the 10th teenager to be charged over the incident, and is due to appear in court tomorrow.

Earlier today the Perth Children's Court heard a 15-year-old had been sitting on a bench at Ellenbrook Secondary College in Perth's north-east when he was approached by a gang of teenagers armed with knives and an axe in a premeditated ambush that left him in hospital with stab wounds.
The college went into lockdown at the time of the attack, which took place around the time the bell sounded for the end of classes.

We Are Also Victims": Details Of Luthra Brothers' Pre-Arrest Bail Plea In Goa Fire Case.
The Luthra brothers have claimed to be the victims in the fire tragedy that engulfed a nightclub owned by them in Goa last Sunday. At least 25 people died in the fire at the 'Birch' by Romeo Lane pub at Arpora in the coastal town during a midnight party.

Saurabh Luthra and Gaurav Lauthra, owners of the nightclub, had fled to Thailand amid the probe, anticipating their arrest in the case. Meanwhile, they also approached a court in Delhi, seeking to return to India and an anticipatory bail.

In their petition, the Luthras argued that the criminal liability cannot be pinned on them since they were not present at the nightclub when the fire erupted, according to the petition accessed by NDTV.
The court, however, refused any immediate relief to the accused brothers and sought a response from the police. The case will be taken up again tomorrow.
Luthra Brothers' Defence

Senior advocate Tanveer Ahmed Mir, representing the Luthras, said that the nightclub is run by their partners and managers. Stating that the Luthras have three business partners, he claimed that they run several business units and do not personally oversee the day-to-day operations of any of the firms.

The franchise managers handle the operations, the advocate said, adding that the club where the fire occurred also operates under this arrangement. He argued that if an incident occurs in another location, criminal responsibility cannot be placed on them. Liability lies with those conducting the operations—the partners or managers, he said, pointing out that operational managers had already been arrested.

A Private Member’s Bill titled the Right to Disconnect Bill, 2025 has been introduced in the Lok Sabha to legally protect employees from work-related calls, messages, or emails outside designated office hours.
The Bill, introduced by MP Supriya Sule, seeks to formally recognise an employee's right to disengage from official communication once working hours end. It aims to restore work–life balance in the increasingly digital and ‘always-on’ work environment created by remote and hybrid work.

The legislation highlights a growing global concern: employees being expected to respond instantly, even during personal time, weekends, and holidays.

Countries like France, Italy, Ireland, Portugal, and Spain have already enacted right-to-disconnect laws. India’s Bill reflects evolving conversations about digital rights, privacy, and humane work environments.
