People are often troubled by the problem of hair fall during the winter season. They say that as soon as the winter season arrives, hair starts falling rapidly, the biggest reason for which is that cold and dry air sucks the moisture from the scalp. Due to this, the scalp becomes dry and dandruff increases, hair roots become weak and hair fall increases, on top of that, washing hair repeatedly with hot water, over styling and lack of nutrition also increases hair fall. Therefore, we should take extra care of our hair in winter. Here are some remedies, by adopting which you can get rid of these problems to a great extent and the things included in these remedies are easily available in your home, so you will not have to work too hard.

Increase hair growth by using green tea

People consume green tea, usually to lose weight, but you do not know that the green tea cover which you throw away as garbage after using it is very beneficial for hair growth. If you mix the remaining strip of that cover in hot water and apply it on your scalp and leave it for some time and then wash your hair thoroughly. Green tea is rich in anti-oxidants which increase hair growth and prevent hair fall.

Strengthen roots with onion juice

If you want to prevent hair fall then onion juice can help you a lot. Onion juice contains sulfur which helps in new hair growth by increasing collagen production. With this, the roots of your hair become stronger. Apply onion juice on the scalp for 20–25 minutes and then wash. Apply it 1 to 2 times a week.

Foods containing iron and protein are essential for hair.

To increase hair growth and prevent hair breakage, you should consume food products rich in iron and protein so that hair can be strengthened in winter. Including iron rich foods like spinach, fenugreek and broccoli, protein sources like pulses, soya, paneer, Omega 3 foods like almonds and walnuts, carrot and beetroot vegetables and blood enhancing foods like sesame jaggery in your daily diet strengthens the roots and reduces hair fall.

Avoid washing hair with hot water

In winter, we take bath with hot water but if your hair is weak and breaking a lot then you should avoid pouring hot water on the head because hot water pulls out the moisture from the hair and makes it dry and lifeless, due to which the scalp becomes dry and there is also a risk of bacterial infection like dandruff in the head.

Coconut milk accelerates hair growth

Coconut milk is very effective for our hair growth. It contains sufficient amount of iron and potassium which strengthens the hair. Apply it well on your scalp and if possible, squeeze some lemon in coconut milk which will help in growing and strengthening the hair.

Putin India Visit: Russian President Vladimir Putin has said that the increasing cooperation between India and Russia is not against any third country, America is also included in it. In an interview given to India Today in the Kremlin before his visit to India, he spoke openly on the future of India-Russia relations and America’s reactions.

When asked what India and Russia should do to deal with President Donald Trump’s tariff policies, Putin said, ‘He follows his own policy. He has advisors, his decisions are not taken just like that. His advisors believe that this type of tariff policy, i.e. imposing additional duties on trading partners, is beneficial for the US economy in the long run. In my understanding, he is doing his work honestly.

‘Russia does not believe in such policies’

Putin said that Russia does not adopt such practices. He said, ‘Our experts believe that there are risks in these policies, but every country and its government has the right to choose its economic policy. We have never done this, are not doing it now and have no such plans in the future. Our economy is open. We hope that whatever violation of World Trade Organization (WTO) rules has occurred will be rectified.

‘India-Russia cooperation is not against any country’

When asked what could be Trump’s reaction to programs like ‘Make in India, Make With Russia’, Putin clearly said, ‘Neither I nor Prime Minister Modi ever think of working together against anyone, despite external pressures. Trump follows his agenda, focuses on his goals, while we focus on our work, not against anyone, but to protect the interests of India and Russia. We do not harm anyone and I think leaders of other countries will understand this.

When asked what he thought about Trump’s recent statement that India was ‘funding the war’ by buying oil from Russia, Putin said, ‘I would never let any of my colleagues make this assessment of the citizens of their country during elections.’

‘America itself buys nuclear fuel from Russia’

Responding to Trump’s criticism on energy imports, Putin said that America itself buys nuclear fuel from Russia. He said, ‘As far as India’s purchase of Russian energy resources is concerned… I would like to say this, and I have said this publicly before, America itself buys nuclear fuel from Russia for its nuclear power plants.’

Putin further said, ‘This fuel is also uranium, which is used in America’s reactors. If America has the right to buy fuel from us, why should India not have the same right? This question is a matter of serious consideration and we are ready to discuss it, even with President Trump.

America has imposed sanctions on two Russian oil companies, Rosneft and Lukoil. These are the two largest oil companies of Russia and the ban is likely to affect Moscow’s economy. The Trump administration has accused these companies of funding Russia for the ongoing war in Ukraine. Amidst all this, the biggest question remains that what impact will the US sanctions on two leading Russian oil companies have on India?

Russian economy will be affected

The new sanctions are likely to hit the Russian economy, as taxes from the oil and gas industries account for about a quarter of Moscow’s budget. China-India are the largest buyers of Russian oil and energy. Last year, China bought a record more than 100 million tons of Russian crude, accounting for about 20 percent of Beijing’s total energy imports. India has become the largest buyer of Russian crude oil after Russia attacked Ukraine in 2022. This year, India has imported 17 lakh barrels of oil per day from Russia in 9 months.

Government refineries busy reviewing documents

According to Reuters report, Indian government refineries are reviewing their Russian oil trade documents. This is being done to ensure that India will not get oil supplies from these two Russian companies after the US sanctions. Government refineries including Indian Oil Corporation, Bharat Petroleum Corporation, Hindustan Petroleum Corporation and Mangalore Refinery and Petrochemicals are reviewing the bill of lading documents for Russian crude.

What will be the impact of US sanctions on India?

The companies have not yet issued any statement on this matter. Anyway, Indian government refineries do not buy Russian oil directly from Rosneft and Lukoil. India purchases Russian crude oil through middlemen. According to the report of news agency PTI, US sanctions are likely to affect Reliance Industries’ crude oil imports from Russia, while government refineries can continue purchasing through middlemen for now.

Reliance Industries likely to be affected

The government is reportedly assessing the risks of these sanctions, but is unlikely to immediately stop the flow of Russian crude as they buy all the oil they need from traders, the majority of whom are European traders (who are outside the scope of the sanctions). Reliance Industries Limited may have to rebalance its imports as it buys crude oil directly from Russia’s Rosneft.

In December 2024, Reliance had signed a term agreement with Russian company Rosneft (which is now banned) to import 5 lakh barrels of Russian oil per day for 25 years. It also buys oil from middlemen. The two companies on which America has imposed sanctions export 31 lakh barrels of oil daily. Rosneft alone exports six percent of global oil production and almost half of Russia’s total oil production.

The government was asked whether it has information about the total number of Indians serving in the Russian army and if it is, what is their details including the date of their identity.

Data on dates for Indian citizens to return to India

The Ministry of External Affairs was also asked whether the government has data on the dates for the return of those Indian citizens to return to India, which have now been relieved. He said, “According to the available information, there were 127 Indian citizens in the Russian armed forces, out of which 97 services were abolished, which resulted in continuous contact between the Indian and the Russian governments on the matter as a result of continuous contact. The government was still asked for details of the number of Indian youth who were trapped in Russia and serving their army and steps have been taken by Mia and Indian Embassy in Russia to withdraw them in Russia.

There are still Indian citizens in Russian armed forces

Singh said, “According to the information available, there are still 18 Indian citizens in the Russian armed forces, out of which 16 have been reported to have been reported by Russia. The government said that about such persons from the concerned Russian officials. Russian officials have been requested to provide an update on Indians in the Russian armed forces and have also spoken to ensure their safety, good and early discharge.
