Famous Bachha Biryani, owned by Debashish Banik near Habra Station, was bulldozed last night.
He has been crying about this on social media for the last 15 days, but he never mentioned to you that-
He owns a fully air-conditioned, two-story restaurant
He owns two four wheelers-

@abhijitmajumder 2 things BJP must avoid at all costs if they want to retain Bengal for a long time -
1. Get out of this ridiculous & frankly delusional notion that Muslims voted for them or ever will.
2. Do not divide Bengal Hindus into caste. Their only identity should be that they're Hindus.

@SaffronChargers @grok who is that leader connected with sports?

[Ritam's World @IndianRitzy24X7]

@subhsays Yes, protection of the family of the Counting agents is of utmost importance now 🙏👍

The Scary Nights of Guwahati

Guwahati has always had a complicated relationship with the night.

A friend who recently moved here told me something with the innocence only a new city can inspire. They said Guwahati is convenient. That after midnight, they drive to Jayanagar, pick up snacks from a 24/7 departmental store, buy cigarettes, loiter a little, breathe. I told them, not as advice, but almost as a warning disguised as affection, please avoid going out unless you have work. After 10:30 PM, this city changes character.

That sentence made me feel old. Or maybe just local.

Because I come from the generation that still remembers when Guwahati after 9 PM made no sense to ordinary people. The city shut down early, not by law but by instinct. There were hardly any streetlights. When lights were installed on a flyover in early 2000s, it felt like civilisation had arrived. I remember returning on my father’s scooter from my grandparents’ house, half asleep, my head wobbling in the night air. He would stop at Ulubari near Misti Mukh, borrow water and splash it on my face to keep me awake. Later they installed an Aquaguard there, and the ritual upgraded, now I had to drink a full glass too. That was our nightlife.

Back then, people rushed home because the dark belonged to insurgency, rumours, and the kind of lawlessness that didn’t need explanation. The city was afraid of what lurked outside.

Today, the city is lit. The roads are wider. There are pubs, cafés, all-night stores, brighter flyovers, and more cars than the old Guwahati mind can process. On paper, we are modern. On Instagram, we are metropolitan.

But the nature of the night hasn’t changed.
Only the predator has.

Earlier, it was fear of a bomb, a bandh, a sudden silence.
Now it is the fear of an overpowered SUV, driven by someone drunk on speed, entitlement or both, smashing into your parked car at a traffic signal and risking lives that were simply waiting for green.

The recent Madgharia tragedy is not an exception. It is a reminder.

The nights of Guwahati are no longer closed. They are open. Open to everyone. To migrants, dreamers, young people looking for a little freedom, a little fun, a cigarette, a snack, a late drive, a city to call home. Lakhs now live here with different aspirations. They all deserve to feel safe in this city.

But Guwahati still carries the old fear in a new bottle.

We survived nights of insurgency. It would be a cruel joke if we now lose people to nights of stupidity.

@NewsAlgebraIND @EduMinOfIndia, cancel the license and close this school. Just think about the humiliation those parents and kids have faced. She is a monster running a school.

If you cannot do that, please close your Ministry of Education permanently.

JUST IN: Iran bombed Qatar’s gas infrastructure from the west. Tropical Cyclone Narelle hit Australia’s gas infrastructure from the east. In the same week, 38.8 million tonnes per annum of LNG capacity went offline from both sides of the Indian Ocean. And the only country with zero disruptions to its LNG terminals is the one that started the war.

America is the last gas station standing.

Qatar lost 17 percent of its LNG capacity after Iranian strikes on Ras Laffan in March. QatarEnergy declared force majeure. Repairs will take three to five years per QatarEnergy. Qatar supplies 14 percent of global urea and 30 percent of global helium. The force majeure shut the QAFCO fertilizer plant, the world’s largest single-site urea producer. It cut helium supply to the quantum chip fabs and semiconductor cooling systems that AI depends on. One gas field. Five industries. Three to five years offline.

Then on March 26, Cyclone Narelle made landfall in Western Australia. Chevron shut Gorgon at 15.6 Mtpa and Wheatstone at 8.9 Mtpa per Reuters and Chevron’s official statement. Woodside suspended North West Shelf operations at 14.3 Mtpa per Upstream Online. Combined Australian outage: 38.8 Mtpa, roughly equivalent to losing Qatar’s entire current output a second time. The cyclone damage is temporary, weeks to months per Chevron. But it arrived at exactly the wrong moment.

Asia-Pacific LNG spot prices surged 35 to 50 percent per CRU Group and Bloomberg. Europe bid alongside Asia for replacement cargoes. Bangladesh closed universities to save electricity. India cut gas to fertilizer plants by 30 percent. Pakistan suspended LNG to its entire fertilizer sector. Sri Lanka rationed fuel with QR codes. The gas that powers half of South Asia’s food production is now being competed for by European utilities willing to pay triple the pre-war price.

And America? Zero war-related outages. Sabine Pass at 95 to 100 percent utilization. Corpus Christi at full operations. Freeport running at capacity. Cameron and Elba Island unaffected. US LNG exports surged 25 to 40 percent year-over-year per EIA data, filling the gap that war and weather created simultaneously.

Here is the structural insight nobody else has named.

The global LNG market now has a single point of failure and a single beneficiary. The point of failure is the Indian Ocean corridor: Qatar on the western rim, Australia on the eastern rim, and the Strait of Hormuz connecting both to their customers. When war closes one side and weather closes the other, the only alternative is American shale piped to Gulf Coast terminals 10,000 miles away. The beneficiary is the country whose president ordered the strikes that shut Qatar’s gas and whose shale producers are now selling replacement cargoes at record margins.

America broke the market. America is selling the fix.

The domestic cost is real. Henry Hub gas prices rose 15 to 25 percent from export demand per Bloomberg. American consumers are subsidising the export boom with higher utility bills. The war that was supposed to secure Hormuz for global trade has instead made American gas the most expensive alternative to the gas America helped destroy.

The pincer closes from both sides of the Indian Ocean. Iran from the west. Narelle from the east. And between them, a strait that carries 20 percent of global oil, 30 percent of global urea, and the gas that feeds a billion people.

How To Restart your life at 45

At 45, restarting feels heavier, because you are not just rebuilding income, you are rebuilding identity, reputation, confidence, and sometimes family structure. But hear this clearly, 45 is not too late, it only becomes too late when you refuse to move.

Accept your reality without drama, sit down alone, and audit your life honestly. What skills do you have that can produce income today, what debts are hanging over you, what lifestyle is silently draining you. Remove emotions from the table, deal with facts. At this stage, clarity is more powerful than motivation.

Stabilize your finances before chasing big dreams. Cut unnecessary expenses immediately, if you need to downsize your apartment, your car, or your social lifestyle, do it without shame. Pride will destroy you faster than poverty, and your focus now should be survival first, then stability, then growth. Build a small emergency cushion, even if it takes time, because restarting without financial discipline is like building on sand.

Upgrade or reposition your skills, because the world does not pay for age, it pays for value. Ask yourself what you can learn within 6 to 12 months that the market will reward. It could be tech, project management, digital marketing, operations, consulting in your previous field, or a specialized trade. You do not need to compete with younger people on energy, compete with them on experience combined with new knowledge.

Leverage your network differently. At 45, relationships are assets, old colleagues, former clients, church members, industry contacts. Reach out with humility and clarity, not to beg, but to position yourself. Many opportunities at this level will come through conversations, not job portals.

Protect your mental health fiercely. Restarting at 45 can feel embarrassing, especially when your peers appear settled. Ignore comparison, some people peak early and plateau, some bloom late and dominate. Your timeline is your own, focus on consistent daily action.

Start small, but think long term. Do not chase quick money because you feel behind, desperation will cost you more than delay. Build something steady, even if it begins as freelancing, consulting, a small service business, or learning a new industry from scratch. Consistency will beat intensity at this age.

Forgive yourself for past mistakes, bad investments, failed businesses, broken relationships, missed opportunities. If you do not forgive yourself, you will carry regret into your next chapter and sabotage it.

Restarting at 45 is not about proving anything to anyone, it is about refusing to give up on yourself. You still have strength, you still have wisdom, you still have time.

Move quietly, stay disciplined, rebuild intentionally.

My friend just said “45 is not the end,it can be the beginning of your most stable and powerful decade”.

So I have added it here

Dear @JioCare ,
My plan ends on 17th Jan. Today is 13th Jan.

Since morning:
• You’ve already made 3 phone calls to me.
• And on top of that, every call I make is hijacked first by your recorded lecture
“Aapka recharge jald hi samapt hone wala hai… please recharge now” both in Hindi AND English.

I KNOW.
I WILL RECHARGE.

Why the hell am I being mentally spammed 3 days in advance, on every single call?

Dear @TRAI is this how customer experience is supposed to work?
Remind once. Not bully people all day.
