Obesity happens to be one of the most common problems that can be found in almost all age groups around the world.
In order to create awareness and shed light on the problem, World Obesity Day is observed on March 4, every year.
Not only does the day encourage people to stop body-shaming others but it also helps in educating people.
Apart from creating awareness and educating people across the globe, the issue helps in shedding light on how one can fight obesity problems via practical solutions.
On this occasion, a global campaign is organized by the World Obesity Federation that is also backed by the World Health Organization.

Theme:

This year the theme of World Obesity Day is “Everybody needs to act”

History:

World Obesity Day goes way back to the year 2015, wherein a non-profit organization worked closely with World Health Organisation and Lancet Commission in helping spread awareness.
Later in 2016, the focus was shifted to childhood obesity, while later in 2017, the idea was to treat obesity now and avoid consequences later.

Significance:

Obesity happens to be a serious problem that is dealt with by more than 800 people across the globe.
Not only does obesity cause lethargicness but also causes an adverse impact on many vital organs like kidneys and liver.

2. Cricket-Legendary cricketer Shane Warne dies at 52 in Thailand:

Australian cricketer Shane Warne, one of the finest spin bowlers of all time whose talent and personality transcended the sport, died aged 52.
Warne, who ended his spell-binding international career in 2007 with a remarkable 708 test wickets, died from a suspected heart attack in Koh Samui, Thailand, his family confirmed in a statement.
Shane was found unresponsive in his Villa and despite the best efforts of medical staff, he could not be revived.
The family requests privacy at this time and will provide further details in due course.
Credited for reviving the art of leg spin, Warne made his test debut in 1992 against India and by the time he ended his 15-year international career, the spinner had established himself as one of the all-time greats of the game.
He also had 293 wickets from 194 one-dayers and won the man-of-the-match award when Australia beat Pakistan in the 1999 World Cup final.
Thai Police said Warne and three other friends were staying in a private villa and one of them went to inquire about him after the former cricketer did not turn up for dinner.
The friend did CPR on him and called an ambulance Chatchawin Nakmusik, an officer with the Bo Put police on Koh Samui.
An emergency response unit then arrived and did another CPR for 10-20 minutes.
Then an ambulance from the Thai International Hospital arrived and took him there.
They did CPR for five minutes, and then he died.
They did not know the cause of death but were not treating it as suspicious.
Warne’s death comes hours after another former Australian cricket great, wicket-keeper Rod Marsh died on Friday at the age of 74.
Warne’s last post on Twitter, 12 hours before his death was reported, was a tribute to Marsh.
Sad to hear the news that Rod Marsh has passed.
He was a legend of our great game & an inspiration to so many young boys & girls. Rod cared deeply about cricket & gave so much-especially to Australia & England players.
Sending lots & lots of love to Ros & the family.
ALL-TIME GREATS Rated by the esteemed Wisden Cricketers’ Almanack as among the five greatest players of the 20th century, Warne was one of the game’s prominent crowd-pullers whose craft as well as his lifestyle often made headlines.
The wily spinner frequently courted controversy and served a 12-month suspension after testing positive for banned diuretics in 2003.
Often called the best captain Australia never had, he inspired Rajasthan Royals to the inaugural Indian Premier League title in 2008.
Warne’s death prompted an avalanche of tributes from the cricketing world. His great Indian rival Sachin Tendulkar was “shocked, stunned & miserable” at the death of “Warnie”.
There was never a dull moment with you around, on or off the field.
Will always treasure our on field duels & off field banter.
Australia test captain Pat Cummins called Warne a “once-in-a-century cricketer” and said the team, currently playing in Pakistan, were “numbed by the news”.
So many of us in the playing group grew up idolising him and fell in love with this great sport as a result.
The game of cricket was never the same after Shane emerged, and it will never be the same now he has gone. Rest in peace King.
It has been a terrible couple of days for Australian cricket with the passing of Rod Marsh and now Shane.

5. IBBI, IBA partner to improve creditors’ handling of bankruptcy cases:

Bankruptcy rule-maker Insolvency and Bankruptcy Board of India (IBBI) and the Indian Banks Association (IBA) have tied up to improve how creditors, key players in turning around distressed businesses, perform their functions during bankruptcy proceedings.
IBBI, in a statement, said it will conduct awareness and capacity building programmes for financial creditors on topics related to bankruptcy, along with the IBA.
The deal was signed at an event focusing on ‘committee of creditors’ the panel of lenders whtakes key decisions in the case of defaulting businesses.
The regulator has in recent months been tweaking the rules on how the committee of creditors should handle decision making, after a parliamentary panel last year flagged the need for a code of conduct for creditors.
One of the key concerns the panel pointed out was the steep haircut allowed by creditors in the case of bankrupt companies.
IBBI had in December pointed out that the committee of creditors which decides on the fate of companies ending up in bankruptcy tribunals should be fair and transparent in its decisions.
It had also said that the manner of rescuing a company is as important as the rescue itself.
IBBI is of the view that the manner of rescue must ensure optimum utilisation of the limited resources in the economy and promote availability of credit and entrepreneurship.
The conduct of the committee of creditors and its members must be above board, to justify their exalted position in the Bankruptcy Code.
The latest partnership between IBBI and the IBA was signed by senior officials from both the sides.
Timely resolution of insolvency cases potentially impedes the value erosion of assets of corporate debtors and, therefore, it is in the interest of stakeholders including creditors and resolution professionals to conclude the process well within the stipulated timeline.
Mital highlighted the need for quick approvals of resolution plans. He also urged banks to suggest ways to improve the resolution process.

8. North Korea fires ballistic missile in extension of testing:

North Korea fired a ballistic missile into the sea, according to its neighbours’ militaries, extending Pyongyang’s streak of weapons tests this year amid a prolonged freeze in nuclear negotiations with the United States.
South Korea’s Joint Chiefs of Staff said the missile fired from an area near the North Korean capital flew about 270 kilometers (168 miles) eastward at a maximum altitude of 560 kilometers (348 miles) before landing in waters between the Korean Peninsula and Japan.
U.S. and South Korean intelligence officials were closely analyzing the launch.
The launch was North Korea’s ninth round of weapons tests in 2022 as it continues to use a pause in diplomacy to expand its military capabilities while attempting to pressure the Biden administration for concessions.
The flight details roughly matched an earlier assessment by the Japanese military and were similar to North Korea’s previous launch that was also conducted from the Sunan area near Pyongyang.
North Korean’s last launch was designed to test a camera system it plans to install on a spy satellite that is under development.
The missile was fired just as the international community is responding to Russia’s invasion of Ukraine, while also in the middle of the Beijing Paralympics.
Cancelled an appearance at a military academy graduation to respond to the launch, calling it ”absolutely unacceptable”.
The U.S. Indo Pacific Command the launch did not pose an immediate threat to U.S. personnel or territory, or that of its allies.
It called on North Korea to refrain from further destabilising acts and said it was closely consulting with South Korea and Japan as well as other regional allies and partners over the launch.
Officials in Seoul convened an emergency National Security Council meeting and called on the North to refrain from actions that further raise tensions in the face of an international crisis created by Russia’s invasion of Ukraine, and at a time when South Korea is holding a presidential election.
They also vowed stronger cooperation with the United States to deal with the North Korean threat and more closely monitor its nuclear and missile facilities as well as a nuclear testing ground that had been active until 2017.
The launch came as South Koreans waited in long lines Saturday morning for early voting ahead of a presidential election.
Two major candidates have clashed over whether South Korea should continue to pursue engagement with the belligerent North or take a harder line to check its nuclear threat.
Lee Jae-myung, the candidate for the ruling center-left party who has called for a conciliatory approach toward Pyongyang, criticized the launch but reiterated his commitment to dialogue.
The North’s other tests this year included a purported hypersonic missile and its first launch since 2017 of an intermediate range missile with a potential of reaching Guam, a major U.S. military hub in the Pacific.
Analysts say North Korea could up the ante in coming months and possibly resume its testing of major weapons like intercontinental ballistic missiles as it tries to move the needle with Washington, which is now preoccupied with Russia’s invasion of Ukraine and regional competition with China.
The (Kim Jong Un) regime may be unhappy with Washington coordinating global efforts against Russian aggression in Ukraine and disappointed with Seoul’s inward focus ahead of the South Korean presidential election.
But North Korea does not simply test missiles for international attention. Pyongyang’s current priorities are military modernisation and domestic politics.
During a ruling Workers Party conference called by North Korean leader Kim Jong Un last month, Politburo members issued a veiled threat to resume the tests of nuclear devices and ICBMs, which Kim had unilaterally suspended in 2018 to make room for diplomacy with then-President Donald Trump.
But negotiations have stalled since 2019, when the Americans rejected North Korea’s demands for major sanctions relief in exchange for dismantling an aging nuclear facility, which would have amounted to a partial surrender of its nuclear capabilities.
The Biden administration has offered open-ended talks with Pyongyang but shown no willingness to offer badly needed economic benefits unless the North takes real steps to cut down its nuclear weapons and missile program.
The North’s claim that it is testing camera systems for spy satellites suggests it could possibly conduct a banned long-range rocket test disguised as a space launch to advance its weaponry and apply more pressure on Washington.
Some analysts predict that North Korea will launch a rocket carrying a satellite ahead of a major political anniversary in April, the birthday of state founder Kim Il Sung, the late grandfather of Kim Jong Un.
