Devendra Fadnavis, chief minister of India’s Maharashtra state, has said that India was learning how to become a corruption-free society, particularly for investors, from the UAE.
"We realise corruption is a major challenge. Hence, like the UAE, we are gradually taking all our government services online so that there is less human interaction and there is less chance to bribe anyone, " he told The National at Dubai's Arabian Indian Czars Award,

Going grey? A stylist's advice
If you’re going to go grey, a great style, well-cared for hair (in a sleek, classy style, like a bob), and a young spirit and attitude go a long way, says Maria Dowling, founder of the Maria Dowling Salon in Dubai.
It’s easier to go grey from a lighter colour, so you may want to do that first. And this is the time to try a shorter style, she advises. Then a stylist can introduce highlights, start lightening up the roots, and let it fade out. Once it’s entirely grey, a purple shampoo will prevent yellowing.
“Get professional help – there’s no other way to go around it,” she says. “And don’t just let it grow out because that looks really bad. Put effort into it: properly condition, straighten, get regular trims, make sure it’s glossy.”
