India, Fiji extend agriculture cooperation MoU for five more years

India and Fiji have agreed to extend their existing Memorandum of Understanding (MoU) on agriculture cooperation for another five years. The decision was taken during bilateral talks in New Delhi between India’s Agriculture Minister Shivraj Singh Chouhan and Fiji’s Agriculture and Waterways Minister Tomasi Tunabuna. Both sides identified agriculture and food security as priority areas of cooperation. The extended MoU will cover collaboration in areas such as crop diversification, capacity building, and technology transfer. The two countries also decided to create a Joint Working Group (JWG) to strengthen engagement in the agriculture sector. This JWG will periodically review progress and identify new areas for partnership. The move aims to support Fiji’s agrarian economy while giving India a stronger role in Pacific agriculture cooperation.

Prasar Bharati launches “Creator’s Corner” segment on DD News

Prasar Bharati has launched a new content segment called **“Creator’s Corner”** on DD News. The initiative aims to provide a national platform for emerging digital content creators. It is designed to support India’s **Orange Economy (creative economy)** by recognising creators as full-fledged content producers. Each episode of Creator’s Corner will feature short videos across themes such as culture, education, health, science, and entertainment. Union Minister Ashwini Vaishnaw stated that the launch reflects ongoing reforms in the media sector and termed 2026 a year of major institutional reforms for Prasar Bharati. The platform is expected to integrate traditional public broadcasting with new-age digital content ecosystems. It also aligns with the government’s vision of expanding digital public communication and citizen engagement.
