Keeping up with India from Belgium usually means one of two bad options: a home-country news app that pushes forty notifications a day on a timezone that is not yours, or drifting out of touch and finding out about things a week late from a family WhatsApp group.
shortnews.be gives India its own tab. The same 60-word treatment the Belgian feed gets — the essential facts, no padding, no click-bait — applied to Indian headlines, in English, and sitting one swipe away from the Belgian stories you also need. You read both in the time it takes to finish a coffee.
