Antoney Kariyil, Metroplitan Vicar of the Major Archdiocese of Ernakulam Angamaly of the Syrian Catholic Church, has issued a circular exempting the archdiocese from following a decision by the synod of bishops to a introduce unified Mass system from Sunday.
The circular implies that the archdiocese can continue with the fully congregation facing Mass as of now instead of the synodal decision to have the celebrant facing the congregation during the first half of the Mass and facing away from the congregation for rest of the ceremony.

The draft policy for “Responsible Digital Use Among Students”, released on Monday by the Department of Health and Family Welfare, has recommended that parents set structured routines with clear screen-time rules and prioritise privacy, safety, and open conversation with children on digital well-being.
