Here’s why.<br /><br />Venture capital fund exits in Indian startups grew over ten-fold to surge past $14 billion in 2021 over the previous year, a recent report by Bain & Company in collaboration with Indian Venture and Alternate Capital Association finds. This was across secondary transactions and initial public offerings (IPOs), with the latter accounting for a significant 40% of the total exit value. <br /><br />A major share of the exit value was constituted by three exits last year: BillDesk acquisition by PayU, Paytm and Zomato IPOs, a Financial Express report said. Secondary and strategic sales from over 60 deals accounted for the remaining 60% of the overall exit value, equaling $8.7 billion. One of the reasons for this has been the surge in interest from investors globally. <br /><br />The growth also comes in the light of subdued activity as a result of the pandemic prior to 2021. The value of exits in 2019 and 2020 stood at mere $4.4 billion and $1.4 billion respectively. <br /><br />Investment in startups in the country has also seen an uptick, with players in consumer tech, fintech and software as a service (SaaS) being particularly dominant. The boom continues this year with 13 startups already turning unicorns so far. <br /><br /><a href="https://www.financialexpress.com/market/ipo-news/vc-pe-investors-net-5-3-bn-in-exits-from-indian-start-up-ipos/2475630/" target="_blank">Source</a> <br><br><br></div><a href="https://www.capeclean.in/" target="_blank" rel="noopener">Cape Clean - India's Top Facade and Window Cleaning Company</a> </div> <script type='text/javascript'>createSummaryAndThumb("summary2585275208098107170");</script> <div style='clear: both;'></div> </div> <div class='post-footer'> <div class='post-footer-line post-footer-line-1'> <span class='post-timestamp'> </span> <span class='reaction-buttons'> </span> <span class='star-ratings'> </span> <span class='post-backlinks post-comment-link'> </span> <span class='post-icons'> </span> </div> <div class='post-footer-line post-footer-line-2'> <span class='post-location'> </span> </div> </div> </div> <div id='home-cat-link'> <a href='http://www.sinlung.com/search/label/Manipur' rel='tag'>Manipur</a> </div> <div id='post-date'> 04 April 2022 </div> <div id='clear'></div> <div class='post-me'> <span class='post-author vcard'> </span> </div> <div class='post hentry uncustomized-post-template'> <a name='1552944245403122486'></a> <h3 class='post-title entry-title'> <a href='http://www.sinlung.com/2022/04/manipur-girl-babysits-brother-in-class.html'>Manipur Girl Babysits Brother in Class</a> </h3> <div class='post-header-line-1'></div> <div id='share-buttons' style='padding: 10px 0px 5px 0px;'> <div id='UT-social-share' style='border-top: 1px solid #ddd; border-bottom: 1px solid #ddd; padding: 3px 0px 2px'> <table align='center' border='0'> <tr> <td> <a class='twitter-share-button' data-count='horizontal' data-lang='en' data-text='Manipur Girl Babysits Brother in Class' data-url='http://www.sinlung.com/2022/04/manipur-girl-babysits-brother-in-class.html' data-via='sinlung' href='http://twitter.com/share' rel='nofollow'></a> </td> <td> <iframe allowTransparency='true' frameborder='0' scrolling='no' src='http://www.facebook.com/plugins/like.php?href=http://www.sinlung.com/2022/04/manipur-girl-babysits-brother-in-class.html&layout=button_count&show_faces=false&width=100& action=like&font=arial&colorscheme=light' style='border:none; overflow:hidden; margin-left:20px; width:100px; height:20px;'></iframe> </td> <td> <div style='margin-right:25px;'> <script src='http://www.stumbleupon.com/hostedbadge.php?s=1&r=http://www.sinlung.com/2022/04/manipur-girl-babysits-brother-in-class.html'></script> </div> </td> <td> <div style='margin-right:5px;'><g:plusone href='http://www.sinlung.com/2022/04/manipur-girl-babysits-brother-in-class.html' size='medium'></g:plusone> </div> </td> </tr> </table> </div> </div> <div class='post-body entry-content'> <div id='summary1552944245403122486'><p><img alt="https://static.tnn.in/photo/msid-90631999,imgsize-29978,updatedat-1649039652480,width-200,height-200,resizemode-75/90631999.jpg" class="shrinkToFit" height="718" src="https://static.tnn.in/photo/msid-90631999,imgsize-29978,updatedat-1649039652480,width-200,height-200,resizemode-75/90631999.jpg" width="769" /><br /><br />Manipuri girl attends class with little sister in her lap<br /><br /><br />It's no secret that children are full of empathy and compassion. Sometimes, they are also capable of assuming the role of a babysitter or a caretaker for someone younger than them.<br /><br />Be it consoling or babysitting, the art of caring comes naturally to some children. Not so long ago, a heartwarming video from Arunachal Pradesh a little girl consoling her emotional classmate, who was crying.<br /><br />This time, a photo of a 10-year-old Manipuri girl attending school with her younger sister in her lap has drawn the attention of netizens and Manipur Power, Forest, and Environment Minister Th. Biswajit Singh.<br /><br />The 10-year-old student of class 4, identified as Meiningsinliu Pamei, went to school on the day while babysitting her little sister because her parents were tied up with farming duties.<br /><br />The moving photo drew the attention of Biswajit Singh, who wrote: "Her dedication for education is what left me amazed!

Spoke to her family that I will personally take care of her education till she graduates. Proud of her dedication,” Singh tweeted.<br /><br />According to reports, Meiningsinliu family resides Tamenglong district in northern Manipur. She studies at Dailong primary school in Tamenglong district of Manipur.<br /><br />The photo has left a lasting impression on netizens, who lauded the little girl for her dedication to education and her sister.<br /><br />"Such dedicated children leave us speechless but proud of this nation who keeps giving us such strong children who are the reason of this nations might," a user wrote.<br /><br />"It is absolutely heartening and her dedication at this tender age is commendable," wrote another.<br /><br /><br /><br /><br /> <br /><br /></p><br><br><br></div><a href="https://www.capeclean.in/" target="_blank" rel="noopener">Cape Clean - India's Top Facade and Window Cleaning Company</a></div> <script type='text/javascript'>createSummaryAndThumb("summary1552944245403122486");</script> <div style='clear: both;'></div> </div> <div class='post-footer'> <div class='post-footer-line post-footer-line-1'> <span class='post-timestamp'> </span> <span class='reaction-buttons'> </span> <span class='star-ratings'> </span> <span class='post-backlinks post-comment-link'> </span> <span class='post-icons'> </span> </div> <div class='post-footer-line post-footer-line-2'> <span class='post-location'> </span> </div> </div> </div> <div id='home-cat-link'> <a href='http://www.sinlung.com/search/label/Nagaland' rel='tag'>Nagaland</a> </div> <div id='post-date'> 01 April 2022 </div> <div id='clear'></div> <div class='post-me'> <span class='post-author vcard'> </span> </div> <div class='post hentry uncustomized-post-template'> <a name='8083245345856782569'></a> <h3 class='post-title entry-title'> <a href='http://www.sinlung.com/2022/04/phangnon-konyak-is-nagalands-first.html'>Phangnon Konyak is Nagaland's first woman Rajya Sabha MP</a> </h3> <div class='post-header-line-1'></div> <div id='share-buttons' style='padding: 10px 0px 5px 0px;'> <div id='UT-social-share' style='border-top: 1px solid #ddd; border-bottom: 1px solid #ddd; padding: 3px 0px 2px'> <table align='center' border='0'> <tr> <td> <a class='twitter-share-button' data-count='horizontal' data-lang='en' data-text='Phangnon Konyak is Nagaland's first woman Rajya Sabha MP' data-url='http://www.sinlung.com/2022/04/phangnon-konyak-is-nagalands-first.html' data-via='sinlung' href='http://twitter.com/share' rel='nofollow'></a> </td> <td> <iframe allowTransparency='true' frameborder='0' scrolling='no' src='http://www.facebook.com/plugins/like.php?href=http://www.sinlung.com/2022/04/phangnon-konyak-is-nagalands-first.html&layout=button_count&show_faces=false&width=100& action=like&font=arial&colorscheme=light' style='border:none; overflow:hidden; margin-left:20px; width:100px; height:20px;'></iframe> </td> <td> <div style='margin-right:25px;'> <script src='http://www.stumbleupon.com/hostedbadge.php?s=1&r=http://www.sinlung.com/2022/04/phangnon-konyak-is-nagalands-first.html'></script> </div> </td> <td> <div style='margin-right:5px;'><g:plusone href='http://www.sinlung.com/2022/04/phangnon-konyak-is-nagalands-first.html' size='medium'></g:plusone> </div> </td> </tr> </table> </div> </div> <div class='post-body entry-content'> <div id='summary8083245345856782569'><b><img alt="https://www.shethepeople.tv/wp-content/uploads/2022/03/S-Phangnon-Konyak.jpeg" src="https://www.shethepeople.tv/wp-content/uploads/2022/03/S-Phangnon-Konyak.jpeg" /><br /><br />Kohima, Apr 1</b> : S Phangnon Konyak was on Thursday elected unopposed as the Rajya Sabha member from Nagaland. With the tenure of incumbent Rajya Sabha MP from Nagaland K G Kenye ending on April 2, the election was scheduled to be held on Thursday. <br /><br />Returning Officer, Biennial Election to the Council of States, Khruohituonuo Rio informed that as there was only one candidate till the last date for filing nominations, no poll was conducted. Therefore, Konyak has been declared duly elected unopposed to fill up the vacancy in the Rajya Sabha for the State of Nagaland, she said. She is the first woman from the state to get a berth in Parliament's Upper House. <br /><br />Konyak, the president of BJP Nagaland Mahila Morcha, who stood as the consensus candidate of the ruling United Democratic Alliance (UDA), is also the first Bharatiya Janata Party (BJP) member from Nagaland to be sent to Parliament. <br /><br />"S Phangnon Konyak sponsored by the BJP has been declared duly elected uncontested to fill the seat in the Council of States [Rajya Sabha] from Nagaland State, the term of which is due to expire on 2nd April 2022," chief electoral officer V Shashank Shekhar said in a press release. In the 60-member assembly, NDPP has 21 MLAs, NPF 25, BJP 12 and two Independent MLAs, all of whom joined hands in September 2021 to form UDA for facilitating an early solution to the vexed Naga political dialogue. <br /><br /> Congratulating Phangnon Konyak on being elected unopposed, Chief Minister Neiphiu Rio expressed confidence that she will represent Nagaland state exceptionally well. Rio also wished her the best for a successful tenure. "It's a great journey for any women of Nagaland… it's historical" said BJP Nagaland president and cabinet minister Temjen Imna Along. Konyak is in Delhi and could not be reached for comments.<br><br><br></div><a href="https://www.capeclean.in/" target="_blank" rel="noopener">Cape Clean - India's Top Facade and Window Cleaning Company</a> </div> <script type='text/javascript'>createSummaryAndThumb("summary8083245345856782569");</script> <div style='clear: both;'></div> </div> <div class='post-footer'> <div class='post-footer-line post-footer-line-1'> <span class='post-timestamp'> </span> <span class='reaction-buttons'> </span> <span class='star-ratings'> </span> <span class='post-backlinks post-comment-link'> </span> <span class='post-icons'> </span> </div> <div class='post-footer-line post-footer-line-2'> <span class='post-location'> </span> </div> </div> </div> <div id='home-cat-link'> <a href='http://www.sinlung.com/search/label/Music' rel='tag'>Music</a> </div> <div id='post-date'> 31 March 2022 </div> <div id='clear'></div> <div class='post-me'> <span class='post-author vcard'> </span> </div> <div class='post hentry uncustomized-post-template'> <a name='4172173079412932428'></a> <h3 class='post-title entry-title'> <a href='http://www.sinlung.com/2022/03/spyair-vocalist-ike-leaves-band.html'>SPYAIR Vocalist IKE Leaves Band</a> </h3> <div class='post-header-line-1'></div> <div id='share-buttons' style='padding: 10px 0px 5px 0px;'> <div id='UT-social-share' style='border-top: 1px solid #ddd; border-bottom: 1px solid #ddd; padding: 3px 0px 2px'> <table align='center' border='0'> <tr> <td> <a class='twitter-share-button' data-count='horizontal' data-lang='en' data-text='SPYAIR Vocalist IKE Leaves Band' data-url='http://www.sinlung.com/2022/03/spyair-vocalist-ike-leaves-band.html' data-via='sinlung' href='http://twitter.com/share' rel='nofollow'></a> </td> <td> <iframe allowTransparency='true' frameborder='0' scrolling='no' src='http://www.facebook.com/plugins/like.php?href=http://www.sinlung.com/2022/03/spyair-vocalist-ike-leaves-band.html&layout=button_count&show_faces=false&width=100& action=like&font=arial&colorscheme=light' style='border:none; overflow:hidden; margin-left:20px; width:100px; height:20px;'></iframe> </td> <td> <div style='margin-right:25px;'> <script src='http://www.stumbleupon.com/hostedbadge.php?s=1&r=http://www.sinlung.com/2022/03/spyair-vocalist-ike-leaves-band.html'></script> </div> </td> <td> <div style='margin-right:5px;'><g:plusone href='http://www.sinlung.com/2022/03/spyair-vocalist-ike-leaves-band.html' size='medium'></g:plusone> </div> </td> </tr> </table> </div> </div> <div class='post-body entry-content'> <div id='summary4172173079412932428'><p> </p><p><img alt="SPYAIR header" src="https://img1.ak.crunchyroll.com/i/spire2/569e988c550467e07b5abc473eaa165f1648723811_main.png" style="height: 427px; width: 640px;" /></p> <p> </p> <p>Japanese pop rock band SPYAIR today announced that their vocalist, IKE, has decided to leave the group, following unsuccessful treatment for <span style="vertical-align: inherit;"><span style="vertical-align: inherit;"><span class="goog-text-highlight">his ulcerative colitis.

About 7,000 militants have surrendered in the last few years,” the ministry said.</span></p> <p><span style="font-weight: 400;">The statement noted that the Government of India has also signed several agreements to end insurgencies and bring peace to the Northeast in the last three years. </span></p> <p><span style="font-weight: 400;">These include the Bodo Accord signed in January 2020, which resolved the five decades long Bodo problem of Assam; the Karbi-Anglong Agreement of 4 September 2021, which resolved the long standing dispute over the Karbi region of Assam; the NLFT (SD) agreement signed in August 2019 to bring militants into the mainstream of society in Tripura; and an agreement signed on 16 January 2020 to resolve the 23-year-old Bru-Reang refugee crisis, under which 37,000 internally displaced persons are being resettled in Tripura.</span></p> <p><span style="font-weight: 400;">On 29 March, an agreement resolving disputes along boundaries of Assam and Meghalaya was also signed.</span></p><br><br><br><br><br><br></div><a href="https://www.capeclean.in/" target="_blank" rel="noopener">Cape Clean - India's Top Facade and Window Cleaning Company</a></div> <script type='text/javascript'>createSummaryAndThumb("summary4551124895506003605");</script> <div style='clear: both;'></div> </div> <div class='post-footer'> <div class='post-footer-line post-footer-line-1'> <span class='post-timestamp'> </span> <span class='reaction-buttons'> </span> <span class='star-ratings'> </span> <span class='post-backlinks post-comment-link'> </span> <span class='post-icons'> </span> </div> <div class='post-footer-line post-footer-line-2'> <span class='post-location'> </span> </div> </div> </div> <div id='home-cat-link'> <a href='http://www.sinlung.com/search/label/Mizoram' rel='tag'>Mizoram</a> </div> <div id='clear'></div> <div class='post-me'> <span class='post-author vcard'> </span> </div> <div class='post hentry uncustomized-post-template'> <a name='4743927047516664558'></a> <h3 class='post-title entry-title'> <a href='http://www.sinlung.com/2022/03/aizawl-to-become-4th-state-capital-in.html'>Aizawl To Become 4th State Capital In North East To Have Rail Connectivity Next Year</a> </h3> <div class='post-header-line-1'></div> <div id='share-buttons' style='padding: 10px 0px 5px 0px;'> <div id='UT-social-share' style='border-top: 1px solid #ddd; border-bottom: 1px solid #ddd; padding: 3px 0px 2px'> <table align='center' border='0'> <tr> <td> <a class='twitter-share-button' data-count='horizontal' data-lang='en' data-text='Aizawl To Become 4th State Capital In North East To Have Rail Connectivity Next Year' data-url='http://www.sinlung.com/2022/03/aizawl-to-become-4th-state-capital-in.html' data-via='sinlung' href='http://twitter.com/share' rel='nofollow'></a> </td> <td> <iframe allowTransparency='true' frameborder='0' scrolling='no' src='http://www.facebook.com/plugins/like.php?href=http://www.sinlung.com/2022/03/aizawl-to-become-4th-state-capital-in.html&layout=button_count&show_faces=false&width=100& action=like&font=arial&colorscheme=light' style='border:none; overflow:hidden; margin-left:20px; width:100px; height:20px;'></iframe> </td> <td> <div style='margin-right:25px;'> <script src='http://www.stumbleupon.com/hostedbadge.php?s=1&r=http://www.sinlung.com/2022/03/aizawl-to-become-4th-state-capital-in.html'></script> </div> </td> <td> <div style='margin-right:5px;'><g:plusone href='http://www.sinlung.com/2022/03/aizawl-to-become-4th-state-capital-in.html' size='medium'></g:plusone> </div> </td> </tr> </table> </div> </div> <div class='post-body entry-content'> <div id='summary4743927047516664558'>A new Broad Gauge railway line is currently under construction from Bairabi of Assam’s Hailakandi district to Sairang of Mizoram’s Aizawl district covering 52 km. <br /><br />In a recent development in the railway sector of the northeastern region, the capital city of Mizoram, Aizawl is all set to get railway connectivity in the upcoming year. <br /><br />With this major railway project, Aizawl will become the fourth state capital in the northeast to have a rail link that is currently under construction. <br /><br />Officials informed us about the upcoming railway network in Aizawl as the NFR (National Frontier Railway) is laying BG (Broad Gauge) track up to Sairang town of Mizoram which is about 20 kilometres from Aizawl. <br /><br />As informed by the officials, this rail project has been proposed with the cost of Rupees 6,547 crore and is expected to be operational from next year. <br /><br />The construction work will be completed on November 2023 and at present, 70 per cent of work on the BG line from Bairabi- Sairang is already done.<b><br /></b><div style="left: -99999px; position: absolute;">A new Broad Gauge railway line is currently under construction from Bairabi of Assam’s Hailakandi district to Sairang of Mizoram’s Aizawl district covering 52 km.
