Education accounts for 4.1% of GDP but only 14.2% of total public expenditure, which is less than the 15% benchmark. This situation is significant because India's secondary school completion rates are lagging behind national targets. Lower secondary completion is 86%, falling short of the 99% benchmark for 2025. The global trend shows many countries are moving away from these public education expenditure benchmarks. 📉 https://memews.com/news/barcelona-misses-friuli-venezia-giulia-cup-cmsn0025hgl1c9e36u 2026-08-08T21:44:52.000Z 0.6 https://assets.goal.com/images/v3/getty-2289639156/crop/MM5DINJZGI5DENJYGM5G433XMU5DCOBRHIYTMOI=/GettyImages-2289639156.jpg Barcelona misses Friuli Venezia Giulia Cup Barcelona ultimately failed to secure the Friuli Venezia Giulia Cup after losing 1-0 to Udinese in the triangular tournament in Udine.

CT scans revealed burrowing traits like a reinforced skull and reduced optic region in this specimen. The findings date back to the Late Cretaceous Period, around 80 million years ago. This challenges the old debate of whether snakes first evolved on land, underground, or in water. The research suggests early snakes rapidly diversified across multiple environments. 🐍 https://memews.com/news/msk-prasad-tells-parents-to-boost-kids-talents-cmskh5np77h17a17dc 2026-08-08T14:06:38.000Z 0.6 https://memews.com/news/deadly-bacteria-surge-in-louisiana-coastal-waters-cmskh8plo831c82olq 2026-08-08T14:06:15.000Z 0.6 https://www.livemint.com/lm-img/img/2026/08/08/1600x900/logo/pexels-photo-12069505_1786197177035_1786197186510_7d45e3ed-c60e-4bdc-94b8-1ac12132a665.jpeg Deadly bacteria surge in Louisiana coastal waters Severe infections from Vibrio vulnificus, known as a 'flesh-eating' bacterium, are on the rise in Louisiana.

The mission departed from Cape Canaveral on August 20, 1977, heading toward Jupiter, Saturn, Uranus, and Neptune. This unique gravitational opportunity occurs roughly every 176 years, with the next chance around the 22nd century. The planetary positions allowed for a chain of gravity assists to propel the craft forward.

Researchers analyzed data from over 1,700 participants aged 45 to 64 who underwent brain MRIs over two decades. Those who watched television "very often" showed smaller volumes in areas for language and cognitive control. Experts noted this is because watching TV is a cognitively passive activity, unlike work. Therefore, limiting passive screen time and prioritizing mental engagement is key for brain health. 🧠 https://memews.com/news/tablets-replacing-laptops-in-amazon-great-freedom-sale-cmsk9q9vuzzs6utz0 2026-08-08T10:30:21.000Z 0.6 https://www.hindustantimes.com/ht-img/img/2026/08/07/1600x900/logo/tablets_1786091921139_1786091932812_888d195f-0227-4634-90d8-6aba570c0f8a.png Tablets replacing laptops in Amazon Great Freedom Sale Several powerful tablets are available to replace traditional laptops during the Amazon Great Freedom Sale.

This condition affects women in Hyderabad, with symptoms like burning and irritation being common signs. After age 45, the risk increases because hormones regulate tear production, and ageing reduces natural tear output. Modern screen habits and pre-existing conditions like thyroid disorders worsen this vulnerability. Timely diagnosis and practices like the 20-20-20 rule can effectively manage dry eye disease. https://memews.com/news/big-stars-kick-off-kbc-18-premiere-cmskj30y1b61j0owto 2026-08-08T10:27:00.000Z 0.6 https://static.toiimg.com/thumb/msid-133050541,width-1280,height-720,resizemode-6,overlay-toi_sw,pt-32,y_pad-600/photo.jpg Big Stars Kick Off KBC 18 Premiere Kaun Banega Crorepati 18 is kicking off with a massive, star-studded premiere episode.

Researchers at UC Berkeley and others tested this method on cultured mammalian cells containing both healthy and cancerous cells. The technique successfully destroyed mutated cells while leaving healthy cells almost entirely unharmed, even with a single DNA difference. This programmable approach bypasses the limitations of current drugs by destroying the cell instead of trying to repair the gene. The findings, published in Nature, show a highly precise alternative to traditional chemotherapy and radiation. https://memews.com/news/mayawati-slams-akhilesh-over-sp-s-pandit-twist-cmsk5ep1hr86dibtn 2026-08-08T08:31:00.000Z 0.6 https://static.toiimg.com/thumb/msid-133049211,width-1280,height-720,resizemode-6,overlay-toi_sw,pt-32,y_pad-600/photo.jpg Mayawati slams Akhilesh over SP's 'Pandit' twist BSP supremo Mayawati sharply attacked the Samajwadi Party for changing its political stance to gain electoral advantage.

Researchers tracked their psychology using sensors and check-ins while they faced minus 80°C temperatures. Loneliness and conflict steadily increased, and paranoid thinking spiked around month six. Interestingly, more frequent close contact did not improve well-being, leading to higher conflict. This highlights that sustained confinement, not just isolation, is a major factor for future Mars crews. 😬 https://memews.com/news/rss-chief-on-india-pakistan-relations-cmsk8ygsuug17ldso7 2026-08-08T07:29:58.000Z 0.6 https://images.news18.com/ibnlive/uploads/2026/08/mohanbhagwateducation2-2026-08-656b32805ae8c6a54e82f1c0e4e1f891-1200x800.jpg RSS Chief on India-Pakistan Relations Mohan Bhagwat, the Chief of the Rashtriya Swayamsevak Sangh (RSS), made a statement regarding the relationship between Pakistanis and Indians.

This finding was achieved by researchers from the BESIII experiment. The team used data from 10 billion J/ψ particles collected since 2008, confirming the spin-parity quantum numbers as 0−+ in 2024. This result validates the non-Abelian gauge structure underlying the strong force in quantum chromodynamics. Future work will build upon this evidence to understand how gluons form entirely new types of matter. https://memews.com/news/swiggy-zomato-could-face-bike-taxi-rules-in-maharashtra-cmskshbeiis1itv04x 2026-08-08T07:25:26.000Z 0.6 https://bsmedia.business-standard.com/_media/bs/img/article/2024-12/20/thumb/fitandfill/1200X628/1734664674-9059.jpg Swiggy, Zomato could face bike-taxi rules in Maharashtra Maharashtra's government is proposing to bring food and e-commerce delivery platforms under the bike-taxi regulatory framework.

This method could potentially complement current immunotherapies rather than targeting cancer cells directly.

Earth is constantly in motion, spinning on its axis and revolving around the Sun. At the equator, the rotation speed is around 1,670 km/h, while orbiting the Sun, it travels at about 107,000 km/h. This orbital journey takes approximately 365.25 days to complete one revolution. Humans don't feel this movement because the motions are continuous and everything on Earth moves with the planet. This massive cosmic journey happens even though life on Earth feels perfectly still. 🌍 https://memews.com/news/ferran-torres-visiting-paris-for-potential-psg-move-cmsk41oszpe1jr6xvk 2026-08-08T06:40:00.000Z 0.6 https://barcauniversal.com/wp-content/uploads/2026/08/st-louis-cardinals-v-new-york-yankees-scaled.jpg Ferran Torres visiting Paris for potential PSG move Barcelona forward Ferran Torres is scheduled to visit Paris this week regarding a possible transfer to PSG.

The KAAN prototype completed powered taxi trials at Turkish Aerospace Industries in Ankara in early 2024. Turkey plans initial deliveries by 2028, utilizing a multi-prototype testing strategy. Conversely, India's AMCA faces delays due to engine selection issues and lacks a parallel prototyping plan.

This contrasts sharply with June, where these sectors only received Rs 93 crore collectively. The move suggests a defensive repositioning backing household spending rather than the capex cycle.

Oncologist Dr Rupinder Sekhon noted that milk production is often preserved since the mammary glands remain largely unaffected by treatment. However, active chemotherapy is a major concern because some drugs can harm infants if passed into breast milk. Procedures like hysterectomy impact fertility more than lactation, meaning breastfeeding is often still possible later. For those with removed organs, induced lactation protocols might allow breastfeeding even without a pregnancy. 🤱 https://memews.com/news/top-5-adventure-bikes-hitting-indian-roads-soon-cmskbdfur1egzfnh 2026-08-08T03:29:00.000Z 0.6 https://memews.com/news/israeli-media-claims-iran-s-new-supreme-leader-is-critical-cmsk2jo9qom119tbfb 2026-08-08T03:24:54.000Z 0.6 https://images.firstpost.com/uploads/2026/08/download-53-1-2026-08-2b5bee0fc578b1628f2b31e21df91fe7-1200x675.jpg?im=FitAndFill,width=1200,height=675 Israeli media claims Iran's new Supreme Leader is critical Israeli media is claiming that Iran's new Supreme Leader, Mojtaba Khamenei, is in critical condition and could pass away soon.
