  1. An auction company in the UK received Mahatma Gandhi’s iconic gold frame glasses in their letterbox with a note that they were given to the sender by his uncle who got it from Gandhiji. The glasses were put up for auction for 15 lakhs and were sold at 2.5 crores.

  7. As bizarre as this year might already seem, Trippy ‘reverse waterfalls’ were seen flowing backward in Australia. Obviously, there is a simple meteorological explanation for this reverse-waterfall action: It’s just a trick of the wind. See it for yourself here:
  8. In a progressive move by the courts, daughters have now been given equal property rights like sons and now trans people will also be inducted in the paramilitary forces of India.

  9. A dip in current popularity has led to an invention of a “The Contactless Pani-puri vending machine“! A video of the same was shared on social media and gained popularity at a rate similar to the spread of the virus itself. In the video, a man is seen using an ATM-like vending machine. He selects the price and then inserts a 20 rupee note into the slot. After a brief wait, the machine opens a flap below the keyboard and the paani puris are displayed one by one and picked. The maker of this machine said it took 6 months to design. 
  10.  After Botswana, Zimbabwe also witnessed elephants deaths due to unknown causes. Botswana had earlier recorded death of 350 elephants and the cause was suspected to be some unknown pathogens.

So these were some of  the most important things that you might have missed. Though the pandemic had abruptly stopped life all over the world and all headlines were related to it,  life has again started to go on now with social distancing and necessary precautions.
