    The Indian Army has been a torchbearer of change this past year. Time and again, the world’s fifth most powerful military has given us a glimpse of what a progressive and inclusive military system can look like. A few months ago, we shared that for the first time the Indian Army had deployed women soldiers along the Line of Control in Jammu & Kashmir and that too on regular national security duty.

    Now if that was good news, think about as many as 300 women soldiers getting selected for Permanent Commision in the Indian Army. That’s something unheard of previously and the news comes as welcome winds of change which not only acknowledges female strength and resilience but also takes a step towards women empowerment and equality.

    According to TOI reports, as many as half of the women soldiers who were being considered for permanent commission in the Indian Army have made the cut to bag a spot in the 13-lakh strong force.

    Disclosing the results of the 'Special No 5 Selection Board' which was set up to sort out short-service commission (SSC) women officers, a senior official stated that almost 300 of 615 candidates had been selected for Permanent Commission.

    Although this step comes in keeping with the Supreme Court’s February directive ordering Armed Forces to take appropriate measures and curb gender bias within the force, women officers will still not be allowed to join in combat roles. Perhaps that’s the next glass-ceiling future generation women will break.
    People on social media have also been celebrating the good news.

    Steps like these taken over a long period of time can and will bring desired changes in representation and power equation. It is such small but sturdy measures which brings changes in the long haul. #Respect #IndianArmy #RepresentationMatters #India

    POCO managed to shake the market with its first offering, the POCO F1, after which it went on hiatus. The company did bounce back with a couple of phones in 2020 and is looking to keep the momentum going with a new device. We're looking at leaked renders of the POCO M3 that expected to land in Europe on November 24.
    POCO hasn't revealed anything about this phone yet, but we do have our very first look at the phone and some specs. Before we discuss the phone's specs, here's a quick look at the leaked render -

    As you can see, the phone has a very different design from what we've seen with their other offerings. In fact, the POCO M3 looks very similar to the recently released OnePlus 8T Cyberpunk edition phone. Here, check it out -

    Of course, there are some differences between the two but there's no denying that it looks, well, quite "inspired". The camera module, as you can see, stretches across the width of the phone horizontally. There's POCO branding there, which looks very modern.

    The render also shows the phone in some bright colors and we're really excited to check them out in person. Although it looks like the design was inspired by OnePlus 8T Cyberpunk edition, we do like what we see here. On the front, there's a waterdrop notch to house the selfie camera and at the back, there's a triple camera system.
    As for the specs, the phone is expected to sport a 6.53-inch FHD+ Dot Drop display and it's said to be powered by the Qualcomm Snapdragon 662 SoC. Sadly, that's all we know about the specs for now, but we'll have more to talk about once it goes official in Europe.

    The PlayStation 5 has launched in almost every market around the world yesterday including in regions like Europe, South America and parts of Asia. However, for Indian PlayStation fans, there isn’t even an official release date set for the console. The PlayStation 5 launched in certain regions on November 12th and held a staggered launch schedule for other regions. Having said that, the last we heard from PlayStation India was about the official prices of the console for the country.

    The Indian Playstation community has been quite vocal on social media platforms demanding a launch date or any kind of answer from Sony PlayStation India. Some fans even reached out to former President of SIE Worldwide Studios and current Head of Independent Developer Initiative Shuhei Yoshida for answers. Yoshida responded to some of the queries with “Sorry about the no news.”

    There could be several reasons as to why the console’s launch has been delayed in India. However, a source familiar to the matter at one of the official retailers tells us on the condition of anonymity that “Sony India does not want to do a half baked launch in India and have a situation where there aren’t enough consoles at launch,” hinting to avoid a similar situation as the Series X launch in India where it went out of stock within minutes. While this statement could have some weight to it, there seems to be more at play than just stock allocation problems.

    While this may just be a part of the story, a recent report by The Mako Reaktor tells a different tale when it comes to Sony PlayStation India’s decision making process. A source familiar with Sony’s plans tells the website “Sony India’s hands are tied when it comes to announcing a release date for the country. Decisions for which regions get the PS5 are taken at a global level on the basis of sales and life-time value per user (i.e. how many games, subscriptions, and other services users buy in addition to purchasing a console).”

    The report also added that the final decision for anything related to PlayStation in India is handled by a team sitting out of Dubai. It could be that PlayStation officials are still figuring out stock allocation for India as the console has been facing shortages around the world at launch. Earlier this year, a report by Bloomberg suggested Sony could be facing production problems due to issues with its custom-designed system-on-chip for the new console. The report suggested Sony is facing production yields as low as 50% for the new custom chip and that could be the reason behind stock shortages around the world. Due to stock shortages, Sony could be prioritising markets on the basis of sales and life-time value per user as The Mako Reactor suggests.

    PlayStation is currently the market leader in India for gaming consoles having the largest market share at around 84% according to data compiled by website Statcounter:

    It would be interesting to see whether Sony PlayStation India would announce an official release date in the coming days or weeks. Due to constant pressure from fans, Sony PlayStation India recently released a new statement about the availability of the PlayStation 5 in India:

    CD Projekt Red released the final video in their Night City Wire series on Cyberpunk 2077 last night. They ended it on a high note with a meaty, five-minute video showcasing the gameplay. In fact, the trailer gives you a good explanation of what you'll be doing in Cyberpunk 2077, and why?
    The video touches on the game's story, the origin of your protagonist, and most importantly, Keanu Reeves's role. Turns out Keanu Reeve's character is living in your head. The video also gives us a good idea of what the vehicles and the combat feels like in the game.

    We got a glimpse of various play styles including all the hackery stuff that you can do. It's just safe to say that there's a lot in store for us in terms of the in-game content and we think we're going to be overwhelmed with everything when it comes out.
    The video was so good that it left us wanting more in the end. But we just have to wait for the game's release on December 10 to just hop in and experience it ourselves.


    In case you don't know, CD Projekt Red has already put out a lot of content around the game. The videos are highly detailed and give us a very good idea of what to expect from the game when it comes out.

    Rohit Sharma has been the most successful cricketer in the history of the Indian Premier League for the past couple of years as far as the most number of championship titles are concerned (6).
    He is also only the second captain (after MS Dhoni) to become champion for two consecutive seasons and his side remained a level above the rest of the league in the Points Table this year proving that his leadership skills have been elite for a while now.

    So why has the Indian cricket team not taken notice of this and made him the captain of the Men in Blue, at least in the shortest format of the game?
    Yes, the selectors have talked about how they do not consider IPL to be a good enough platform to pick players for the national team but why can it not be a criterion to decide who will lead the squad?
    View this post on Instagram
    It turns out that former Indian opener Gautam Gambhir feels the same way. In an interview with ESPNcricinfo Gambhir said: 
    "If Rohit Sharma doesn't become India's captain, it's their loss, not Rohit's. Yes, a captain is only as good as his team and I completely agree with that, but what are the parameters to judge a captain on who is good and who isn't? The parameters and benchmark should be the same. Rohit has led his team to five IPL titles".If you look at the current Team India captain in all three formats of the game, Virat Kohli is without doubt the most suitable man from the current roster to lead the team in red ball cricket. But when it comes to white ball cricket, specifically T20 cricket, he has been subpar to average as a skipper (not a batsman or a fielder).

    A decent record with the national team, Kohli’s legacy as an IPL captain for Royal Challengers Bangalore is a huge stain on his reputation. Regardless of how great his team and coaching staff is, his RCb finds a way to tank and perish when it matters the most.
    Gambhir also believes that the idea of distributing the duties of a captain between two proven leaders will only add to Team India’s strength. He says:
    "They can also consider split-captaincy. No one is poor. Rohit has shown in white-ball cricket how big the difference is between his and Virat's captaincy. One player had led his team to five titles, the other hasn't won yet. I'm not saying this because Kohli is a poor captain.” View this post on Instagram
    He concluded:
    "But he has received the same platform that Rohit has, so you have to judge both of them on the same parameters. Both have been captains in the IPL for the same length of time. I feel Rohit stands out as a leader."
