India, even with its motto of "Atithi Devo Bhava" (Guest is God), has fared poorly in the global survey measuring how kind people are to strangers.

Atithi Devo Bhava: an age-old saying lost in the pages of time

India, even with its motto of&nbsp;"Atithi&nbsp;Devo&nbsp;Bhava" (Guest is God), has fared poorly in the global survey measuring how kind people are to strangers.

India, even with its motto of&nbsp;"Atithi&nbsp;Devo&nbsp;Bhava" (Guest is God), has fared poorly in the global survey measuring how kind people are to strangers.

"Atithi&nbsp;Devo&nbsp;Bhava" (Guest is God) is an age-old mantra that defines what India stands for. With this motto, Indians have always taken pride in welcoming guests from the world over with warmth, love and respect.&nbsp;&nbsp;
But the Kindness to Strangers Index has a totally different story to tell. In reality, India has fared poorly in the global survey measuring how kind people from numerous countries are to strangers. The study, published in the Proceedings of the National Academy of Sciences, enlisted 8,354 people from 34 nations to take part in a series of tests to assess their social mindfulness.
The index measures the likelihood of individuals to help strangers selflessly with no monetary return. The research went to highlight that&nbsp;acts of kindness and social mindfulness varied over every geographical space. The list that was led by countries like Japan and Austria had India placed right at the bottom.&nbsp;
But is India truly unkind towards strangers? To begin with&nbsp; India scored 24 out of 100&nbsp;in the Migration Integration Policy Index, which assessed 52 nations on how migrants are integrated. Findings suggested that due to unfavourable policies in India,&nbsp;International migrants coming to India continue to face issues.&nbsp;
As per the World&nbsp;Giving Index, India's rank jumped from 106 in 2014 to 91 in 2015. But then it again slipped to the 124th position in 2018.&nbsp;But of late, India has been trying to improve and has moved to the 14th position. This comes after the pandemic where every Indian has been doing their best to be of some help to their fellow citizens.&nbsp;
However as far as the kindness to strangers in particular is concerned, India still has a long way to go.&nbsp;

Bihar Polls 2020: All You Need to Know

As temperatures dip in some parts of the country, the political heat is rising in Bihar as polling draws near and political parties give their campaigns one final push. &nbsp;
The election for the 243-seat Bihar assembly is being held in 3 phases &ndash; 71 constituencies will vote in the first phase on October 28, 94 seats will go to polls in the second phase on November 3 and third phase on November 7 will cover 78 assembly seats. The ballots will be counted on November 10. &nbsp;
Around 7.29 crore people including nearly 78 lakh first-time voters will decide the fate of political stalwarts like Nitish Kumar and as well as that of rising sons like Tejashwi Yadav and Chirag Paswan. &nbsp;
Alliances have changed since the last Bihar assembly elections in 2015 which saw the RJD, JD(U) and Congress combine come to power. However, Nitish Kumar walked out of this grand alliance in 2017 to return to the BJP-led NDA fold. He continued as the Chief Minister but BJP&rsquo;s Sushil Kumar Modi replaced RJD&rsquo;s Tejashwi Yadav as the Deputy Chief Minister. &nbsp;
2020 might be the younger Yadav scion&rsquo;s year of vengeance as he takes the field as the chief ministerial candidate of the Congress-RJD Mahagathbandhan. The RJD has bagged the lion&rsquo;s share and will be contesting 144 seats, Congress 70 seats and the CPI-ML, CPI and CPI(M) will be contesting a total of 29 seats. The grand alliance is however a few allies short with Vikasheel Insaan Party and former CM Jiten Manjhi&rsquo;s Hindustani Awam Morcha quitting the alliance and joining NDA. &nbsp;
The ruling coalition may have gained 2 allies but it lost 1 very important ally with Lok Janshakti Party led by late Ram Vilas Paswan&rsquo;s son Chirag Paswan deciding to party ways with NDA in Bihar over differences with Nitish Kumar. While the LJP will fight the polls alone, it will field candidates only against JD(U) and not the BJP.&nbsp;
The saffron party is contesting 110 seats, the JD(U) 115 seats and smaller allies Vikasheel Insaan Party and CM Jiten Ram Manjhi&rsquo;s HAM will be fighting from 11 and 7 seats respectively.&nbsp;
There are other minor political parties and alliances in the fray as well. Former NDA ally Upendra Khushwaha&rsquo;s Rashtriya Lok Samta Party has joined hands with Asaduddin Owaisi&rsquo;s AIMIM. Chandrashekhar Azad&rsquo;s Azad Samaj Party has formed an alliance with MP Pappu Yadav&rsquo;s Jan Adhikar Party. &nbsp;
Whether these smaller parties dampen the Diwali festivities of the bigger ones by dividing their votes or Nitish Kumar beats anti-incumbency to retain his chair or an ailing Lalu Yadav sees his son lead his party to victory will be clear when the EVMs are unlocked on November 10. &nbsp;

WHO's emergencies head says 1 in 10 people affected by COVID-19 

WHO's&nbsp;head of emergencies has said that best estimates indicate that approximately 1 in 10 people have&nbsp;been infected by the&nbsp;coronavirus&nbsp;across the globe

WHO's&nbsp;head of emergencies has said that best estimates indicate that approximately 1 in 10 people have&nbsp;been infected by the&nbsp;coronavirus&nbsp;across the globe.&nbsp;
Dr Michael Ryan, speaking at a meeting of the WHO&rsquo;s 34-member executive board focusing on&nbsp;Covid-19, said the figures vary from urban to rural, and between different groups, but that ultimately it means &ldquo;the vast majority of the world remains at risk.&rdquo;
The estimates&nbsp;stated by Ryan would amount to more than 760 million people based on the current world population of about 7.6 billion. This figure is far more than the number of confirmed cases as tallied by both WHO and Johns Hopkins University, now more than 35 million worldwide.

Virat Kohli's horrid run in IPL 2020 continues

Virat has managed just 18 runs in the IPL so far, his lowest in first three innings of any season of the league.

Virat Kohli's horrid run in IPL 2020 continued as the Royal Challengers Bangalore skipper once again failed to impress and was out for an 11-ball-3 vs the Mumbai Indians. Like on many occasions in the past, leg spin once again proved to be his nemesis as Kohli was dismissed by Rahul Chahar.&nbsp;With scores of just 14, 1 and 3 in this edition of the league without a single boundary, Virat has managed just 18 runs so far, his lowest in first three innings of an IPL season. He has also gone 14 innings without a half-century. But as they say, the highest run-scorer of the tournament Virat, may be just 1 innings away from finding his mojo back and RCB would hope that that knock comes soon.

IPL: CSK look to get back to winning ways as they take on Delhi

After losing their previous game, Chennai Super&nbsp;Kings will look to get back to winning ways when they take on the Delhi Capitals&nbsp;in Sharjah on Friday.&nbsp;All eyes will be on MS Dhoni&nbsp;to see whether&nbsp;he reassess&nbsp;his strategy and irons out the flaws highlighted in the previous encounter.&nbsp;While CSK&nbsp;have won 1 and lost 1 game, Delhi bailed out of jail in a thrilling Super Over win vs the Kings XI Punjab. But their batsmen too have a lot of work to do in terms of shot selection.&nbsp;Dhoni's&nbsp;men go into the clash with an upper hand as they have won 15 of the 21 encounters vs Delhi since 2008.

World's wildlife population sees 68% decline since 1970: report

Since the 1970, freshwater species including amphibians, mammals, birds and fish, have declined by 84% across the world.&nbsp;
&nbsp;

Freshwater species declined by 84% globally since 1970

Since the 1970, freshwater species including amphibians, mammals, birds and fish, have declined by 84% across the world.&nbsp; According to the&nbsp;Living Planet Report 2020 by Worldwide Fund for Nature (WWF)&nbsp;, this could lead 1 in 3 freshwater species to the brink of extinction.&nbsp;
Approximately 85% of the&nbsp;earth&rsquo;s wetlands have already been lost and this puts freshwater species at a higher risk than forest or marine species.&nbsp;Freshwater biodiversity is the most threatened biodiversity across the globe.&nbsp;
The report also states that there has been a 68% decline in the global wildlife population between 1970 and 2016. It attributes the loss to the land-use change in the last few decades and also mentions other factors like&nbsp;overfishing, pollution and climate change as reason for the sharp decline.
