PerfectU Weekly Lens: Breaking, Building & Becoming

🇮🇳 INDIA / GOVERNANCE

NEWS:

On Nov 20, the Earth Summit 2025‑26 kicked off in Hyderabad with the theme “Empowering Rural Innovation for Global Change”. The summit, convened by NABARD and IAMAI, brings together policymakers, tech innovators, and rural-economy stakeholders to reposition rural India as an engine of innovation and sustainability.

PerfectU Take: Rural India is stepping out of the shadows — it’s becoming the new innovation arena for India’s growth story.

📚 EDUCATION

NEWS:

The Central Board of Secondary Education (CBSE) has prepared a draft curriculum in Artificial Intelligence (AI) for Classes III to XII, and has submitted it to NCERT for review. This marks a major push to formalise AI learning in school education and prepare students for future tech-rich careers. 

PerfectU Take: Teaching AI to 8-year-olds? India is betting the next generation will code the future — not just consume it.

🩺 HEALTH

NEWS:

The government is actively considering regulatory reforms to address the sharp rise in health-insurance premiums. Discussions are underway with Insurance Regulatory and Development Authority of India (IRDAI), hospitals and insurers to possibly cap premiums, limit agent commissions, enforce stricter disclosure norms and streamline claim-settlement mechanisms. 

PerfectU Take: Affordable healthcare cover is under stress — policy-fixes now aim to protect your wallet from hidden cost surges.

💼 BUSINESS / ECONOMY

NEWS:

State-owned and private Indian companies are adapting to global sanction regimes: For example, Reliance Industries announced that it will halt imports of Russian crude for its export refinery at Jamnagar in response to European Union sanctions. This action illustrates how global geopolitics now influence domestic supply-chains and business decisions.

PerfectU Take: Global pressure-points are now board-room strategy cards — Indian business is seeing that “foreign policy = business policy.”

🎭 LIFESTYLE / CULTURE

NEWS:

The Backstreet Boys’ continued global appeal has led to hints of a new world tour after their successful Las Vegas residency. With legacy acts re-emerging, the music industry is again blending nostalgia with modern performance formats.
