Kudos to Kokum Curry, restaurant in Panaji for proving that accessibility begins with inclusion in thought. Installing a chair lift isn't just about infrastructure—it's about dignity, independence, and ensuring everyone can enjoy the same experience. Hope more restaurants, hotels, and public spaces take inspiration. What we need is थोडीसी सोंच बदल चाहिए 👌🙏❤️

#TeamBharat #MeriGaadiMeraAdhikaar #MeriBikeMeriChoice The #Ethanol Saga.
⛽ Petrol Vehicles⛽
🚘 Choosing the right fuel for your ride🏍️🛵:
1️⃣ Open your vehicle's owner manual.
2️⃣ Find the fuel requirements/specifications page.
3️⃣ Check the allowed #ethanol blend percentage.
If it says "Do not use more than 10% ethanol," your vehicle is designed to take E0 to E10 petrol. Under these standard vehicle guidelines in owner manuals of such vehicles, #E20 petrol is a NO NO.
Similarly avoid say E30 if available, if your owner manual warns against more than 20% ethanol. Then you can safely use upto E20.
⚠️ The Risk:
Using a higher ethanol blend than recommended by a vehicle's original manufacturer specifications can cause damage over time. Because ethanol is highly corrosive and moisture-absorbent, it can degrade rubber hoses, destroy engine gaskets, and corrode metal fuel lines in non-compliant systems.
🔄 The Latest (The Government vs. Backlash Debate):
With the [Ministry of Petroleum](https://t.co/L6neDpjzJe) pushing hard for India's [Ethanol Blending Programme](https://t.co/nRZemz2uUc) (EBP), there has been massive public concern regarding older cars and bikes.
In response, Union Ministers like [Nitin Gadkari](https://t.co/ezCRXJESw9) and [Hardeep Singh Puri](https://t.co/1hwQjWu6MC), along with Oil PSUs (like Indian Oil and BPCL) and major auto manufacturers (like Maruti Suzuki), have released new data. They officially claim that:
* Extensive testing by #ARAI and #SIAM on older E10-compliant vehicles showed no widespread engine failures or severe material degradation. BUT THESE WERE UNDER TEST CONDITIONS LIKELY.
* The government acknowledges a [marginal 3–5% drop in mileage](https://t.co/uDLzhiPeGW) on older vehicles due to ethanol's lower energy density.
💡 The Takeaway: While official bodies assure that older vehicles have handled E20 safely, real-world concerns, incidents, & conditions remain. Checking your manual remains the baseline for what your car or bike was originally engineered to handle.
Demanding the specified ethanol blend is a RIGHT ASK👍🏻
Even if damaged parts in non compliant cars and bikes are replaced free of cost, affected vehicle owners will still be investing time, energy, wasting both, not to forget the hassles and anxiety.
If you would like to, do post your vehicle model and fuel pages from the vehicle owner MANUAL below 👇🏻

DO NOT touch that keyboard. This is one of the most dangerous attacks circulating right now.
This is called a ClickFix attack. It is not a CAPTCHA. It is not a verification step. It is a social engineering attack designed to make you execute malicious code on your own machine while believing you are proving you are human.
Here is exactly what happens if you follow those steps.
The fake page has already silently copied a malicious PowerShell command to your clipboard without you knowing. It happened the moment the page loaded. You did not click anything. You did not consent to anything. The clipboard was written to in the background by JavaScript running on the page.
When you press Win + R you open the Windows Run dialog. When you press Ctrl + V you paste that malicious command directly into it. When you press Run you execute it with your own permissions on your own machine. No exploit needed. No vulnerability needed. You did it yourself. Willingly. While thinking you were completing a CAPTCHA.
The payload varies. Researchers have documented ClickFix delivering infostealers, remote access trojans, and credential harvesters. The malware executes instantly and silently. By the time the Run dialog closes the damage is done.
The reason this attack works so well is threefold. The fake CAPTCHA looks visually identical to a real one. The instructions sound technical and therefore trustworthy. And critically, you are the one executing the command so endpoint security tools see a legitimate user action rather than an automated attack.
Real CAPTCHAs never ask you to open Run dialogs. Real CAPTCHAs never ask you to paste anything. Real CAPTCHAs never give you keyboard shortcuts.
If a webpage ever asks you to press Win + R for any reason, close the tab immediately.

On Facebook,
The suspect ads, one of which is at this URL https://www[.]facebook[.] com/61585032587801/posts/122113178613167752 haven't still been taken down.
I've put the dots of the URL inside square brackets for safety. Investigators can remove the square brackets to check the possie phishing financial scam.
In these ads, readers are asked to take a survey to be eligible to get desi ghee at Rs 10 or Rs 1. But when the OTP comes, the amount on the OTP SMS is Rs 49,997.

I want to share a real incident about an Amazon delivery boy Md. Asif —yes, to me he is still a “boy,” probably around 25–26 years old. He has been delivering parcels in our area for the past 3–4 years.
He belongs to a different religion, but that has never mattered to me.
Whenever he—or any delivery person—comes to my home, I always offer them water or biscuits.
You might ask, what do I get in return?
I receive something far more valuable—respect, warmth, and unexpected kindness.
There have been several occasions when I wasn’t at home. He or another one named Rahul, tried calling me but couldn’t reach me, so they paid for my Cash on Delivery orders from their own pocket and handed the parcels over to my house help. I paid them later. This has happened multiple times.
But what happened two days back left me completely speechless.
I had recently ordered a leather wallet. When it arrived, I opened it and, just to check the space, I placed my passport, government ID cards, debit cards, an international credit card, and ₹5000 inside and was checking.
I soon realized the quality of the product wasn’t good. Just then, I got a call from my business—and I completely forgot about the wallet.
Later, I repacked it exactly the way it came and placed it with the return items.
The next morning, the pickup was done while I was busy inside the room. I asked my house help to hand over the packet along with a small bottle of water.
And that was it—I didn’t think about it again.
I had completely forgotten that all my important documents and cash were still inside.
Around 9:30 at night, the doorbell rang. I opened the door and saw him (Asif)—tired, exhausted, drenched in sweat. I live on the 3rd floor, and there’s no elevator.
I immediately felt concerned and asked for water and biscuits.
He softly said, “Wait, ma’am… I don’t need anything. Please listen first.”
I was confused. “What happened? Are you okay? Why are you here now? I haven’t ordered anything in Amazon!”
He asked, “Ma’am, you had a return this morning, right?”
I said yes.
Then he asked, “Have you lost anything?”
I was surprised. “No.”
He asked again, “Are you sure, ma’am?”
I said, “Absolutely.”
And then… he took out one by one - my passport, all my Govt ID cards, debit cards, credit card, and the ₹5000—and handed them back to me.
He asked me to check everything and count the money.
I couldn’t.
I was numb.
It hit me all at once—what I had done, what could have happened.
I have an international trip coming up soon. If my passport had been lost, especially during this time, getting a new one would have been nearly impossible. My entire trip would have been cancelled!
He told me that he had already handed over the return package to his manager, but something about the weight felt unusual. He took it back, checked, and found all my belongings inside.
I had no words.
I wanted to hug him—but I couldn’t. I just stood there, overwhelmed, with tears in my eyes.
I offered him something—anything. I didn’t even have sweets at home to offer. I gave him a sealed bottle of Limca and a new company T-shirt I had. He was already soaked in sweat, so I insisted he take it, despite his hesitation.
I even tried to give him some amount as a token of gratitude.
He refused.
Not a single note.
He lives far away, yet he came back the same evening to return everything—understanding the importance of what I had forgotten, even when I didn’t.
He left quickly, saying he still had a two-hour journey back home. Otherwise, I would have at least requested him to stay for dinner.
Today, I felt I must share this.
Honesty still exists.
This is the India I believe in. This is my Bengal. This is how we live—where people trust each other, where Hindus, Muslims, Christians, Jains, Sikhs… we all coexist with respect and warmth.
He didn’t have to return it the same day. But he did.
That’s the power of humanity.
A simple smile, a little kindness—these things still matter.

🚨A touching moment when a shelter dog realizes that the family who adopted him also adopted his sister, so they will live together. He gets very excited when he sees her from the car.
Corporate life can be ruff. Between back-to-back meetings, endless emails, and the constant hustle of a newsroom, it’s all too easy to forget that your well-being is the foundation of your productivity. NDTV recently invited Oscar, our first-ever Chief Bark Officer, to spend the day in the newsroom. While he was mostly here for the head pats and the occasional treat, he accidentally gave us a masterclass in mental health.

The United Kingdom recognized animals as sentient beings capable of experiencing joy, fear, pain, and other emotions under law.
In a landmark development, the Animal Welfare (Sentience) Act 2022 officially took effect on 22 May 2023, with the establishment of the Animal Sentience Committee marking full implementation. This legislation requires the government to consider the welfare impacts on sentient animals—including all vertebrates (except humans), cephalopods, and decapod crustaceans—when formulating and enacting policies.
This achievement culminates decades of dedicated advocacy, dating back to 1988, when campaigners began pushing for laws to align with scientific evidence of animals' rich emotional lives. The independent Animal Sentience Committee now provides crucial oversight, ensuring these considerations remain central to policymaking and preventing the dismissal of animals' subjective experiences in political decisions.
As of 2026, the Act continues to shape UK animal welfare standards, setting a forward-thinking precedent for ethical governance and protection in the modern era. This shift honors the complex inner worlds of animals and reinforces their status as beings deserving of compassion and regard in law.
