Rajpal Yadav reacts to Nawazuddin’s praise
Watch how Rajpal Yadav reacted to Nawazuddin Siddiqui praising him for helping fellow actors during their struggling days in Mumbai.
Sports and education are the two pillars on which 'India tomorrow' will rise, Reliance Foundation founder-chairperson Nita Ambani said Saturday at the India Today Conclave in Mumbai.
Her husband, Reliance Industries Chairman and MD Mukesh Ambani, was in the audience to listen to her talk, titled 'The Great Equaliser: Sports and Education For All'.
Nita Ambani detailed her organisation's efforts to contribute to the development of sports and education in India. For instance, she announced the establishment of a number of schools, as well as plans to set up a world-class university at the cutting edge of innovation. She revealed that her foundation's grassroots programme had reached out to 13 million budding sportspeople and athletes.
Nita Ambani laid stress on the importance of capitalising on India's large population of young people, and the demographic dividend. Failure to act would turn that into demographic despair, she warned.

Yogi Adityanath on Saturday presented a saffron gamcha to Suvendu Adhikari, shortly after the latter took oath as the first BJP Chief Minister of West Bengal. The crowd also erupted into a loud cheer as the scene unfolded at the swearing-in ceremony in Kolkata. This was at least the second such instance in recent weeks when the duo's bonhomie was witnessed publicly. Earlier, during the election campaign in the state, a powerful scene was witnessed when Adhikari bowed down at the feet of the UP Chief Minister as a mark of respect.
Prime Minister Narendra Modi on Saturday hugged and honoured 98-year-old Makhanlal Sarkar, one of the earliest and senior most members of the BJP. The scene unfolded on the stage ahead of Suvendu Adhikari's swearing-in as West Bengal's Chief Minister in Kolkata. PM Modi also touched Sarkar's feet and presented a shawl to him as a mark of respect. In 1952, Sarkar was arrested in Kashmir while he was accompanying Dr Syama Prasad Mookerjee as the latter was marching to hoist the tricolour there. BJP IT cell head Amit Malviya described the elderly party leader as "one of the earliest grassroots figures associated with the nationalist movement in post-Independence India."
