Yesterday, in a prayerful mood, I visited the 800-year-old Sri Santhana Venugopala Swamy Temple at Mahadevpura near Bibinagar, a temple dating back to the Kakatiya era.
To my surprise, a Mazar has appeared under the sacred Ashwatha (Banyan) tree around which devotees traditionally perform pradakshina as part of temple worship.
How and why was a Mazar established inside a Hindu temple campus, beneath one of its most sacred trees? Was this done with the knowledge and consent of the temple authorities and devotees, or was it an overnight encroachment? These are questions that deserve clear answers.
Simple test to check adulteration in E20 petrol. Your petrol pump is legally required to hand you a filter paper.
Two drops. One minute. Oily stain that won’t dry = impurity in fuel.
It’s free. It’s your right. And on a hill station, it can save your engine.
A man had built a house worth ₹45 lakh, but there was a major problem in his area.
Every day, the electricity would go out for 3–4 hours, and during the summer, power cuts could last as long as 6 hours.
At first, he thought installing an inverter would be a simple solution.
But a neighbor warned him that choosing the wrong inverter and battery could mean spending money without getting proper backup.
So, he called an electrician and explained his requirements.
He wanted to run:
• 4 fans
• 8 LED bulbs
• 1 TV
• 1 Wi-Fi router
The electrician calculated the load:
4 fans = 300 Watt
8 LEDs = 80 Watt
TV = 120 Watt
Wi-Fi router = 20 Watt
Total load = 520 Watt
The man then said he needed at least 4 hours of backup.
The electrician did the calculation:
520 × 4 = 2080 Watt-Hour
Now, considering a 12V battery and 80% efficiency:
2080 ÷ (12 × 0.8) = 216Ah
This meant that at least a 220Ah battery would be required.
Next, he calculated the inverter size:
520 ÷ 0.8 = 650 Watt
So, an inverter in the range of 900VA to 1100VA would be suitable.
The man asked if that was all he needed.
The electrician replied, “No. Proper wiring is equally important.”
For the inverter charging line, a 2.5mm wire and the correct MCB are necessary.
Incorrect wiring can affect battery charging and may also cause overheating issues.
Then the electrician noticed that the man was planning to keep the inverter in the bedroom.
He immediately advised against it.
Because hydrogen gas is released while the battery is charging, the inverter should always be installed in an open and well-ventilated area.
Now, let’s look at the cost calculation:
220Ah Battery = ₹16,000
1100VA Inverter = ₹7,000
Wiring and Installation = ₹3,000
Total Cost = ₹26,000
With this setup, the essential appliances could comfortably run for 4 hours during a power cut.
The man then realized that before buying an inverter, understanding both the duration of power cuts and the total electrical load of the house is the most important step.
Because a properly calculated inverter provides comfort and reliability, while a poorly calculated one often leads to disappointment and regret.
Seorang ibu lagi ngomel karna disampingnya ada cowok 14 tahun berdiri santai sambil nyedot jempol seperti anak tolol yang tidak tahu apa-apa.
Sementara dua gadis di bawah usia 15 tahun sudah dihamili olehnya.
Bukan cuma satu, dua sekaligus.
Kenapa ini bisa terjadi?
Di usia 14 tahun, otak remaja (khususnya bagian prefrontal cortex) belum matang sempurna.
Kontrol impuls, pemahaman konsekuensi jangka panjang, dan kemampuan mengantisipasi risiko masih sangat lemah.
Hormon lagi naik-turun, ditambah paparan pornografi gratis di HP sejak usia dini, pengaruh teman sebaya, dan minimnya pengawasan orang tua.
Hasilnya “Main papa mama-an” berujung dua kehamilan. Bukan karena dia “jahat” atau “sengaja”, tapi karena sistem di sekitarnya gagal total mencegah ini terjadi.
Orang tuanya hampir pasti gagal memberikan edukasi seks yang benar, pengawasan, dan batasan.
Banyak kasus seperti ini terjadi di keluarga yang sibuk kerja, miskin, atau memang nggak pernah ngomongin soal seks sama anak karena tabu.
Anak dibiarkan “belajar sendiri” lewat HP dan lingkungan.
Si cowok itu juga korban sekaligus pelaku. Secara hukum di banyak tempat dia bisa kena kasus, tapi secara perkembangan dia masih anak.
Tanggung jawab sebagai “ayah” di usia segitu hampir mustahil.
Tapi konsekuensinya tetap nyata: mungkin harus putus sekolah, kerja kasar seumur hidup, atau bahkan masuk penjara tergantung hukum setempat.
Dan ini yang mengerikan sebagai pesan ke semua orang tua & masyarakat:
Kalau anak 14 tahun sudah bisa “berhasil” bikin dua gadis hamil sekaligus, artinya paparan seksual terlalu dini sudah jadi hal biasa di lingkungan itu.
Bukan cuma di Meksiko. Di banyak negara berkembang (termasuk Indonesia), kasus kehamilan remaja masih tinggi karena kombinasi yang sama:
> Kurangnya pendidikan seks komprehensif di sekolah
> Orang tua yang tabu ngomongin seks
> Akses internet tanpa filter
> Kemiskinan yang bikin anak “dewasa” lebih cepat
Bayangin dampaknya: dua bayi baru lahir dari ibu yang masih anak-anak. Siapa yang akan mengasuh mereka? Siapa yang biayai? Siapa yang kasih pendidikan layak?
Satu kasus kecil di satu desa rural ini bisa mewakili ribuan kasus serupa yang nggak viral.
Anak-anak ini bukan cuma “bermain-main”. Mereka adalah cerminan dari seberapa gagalnya kita sebagai orang dewasa melindungi, mendidik, dan membimbing generasi berikutnya.
Siapa yang paling harus bertanggung jawab menurutmu?
Who should be held accountable for such incidents?
📍Chitalwana, Jalore, Rajasthan: Nag Singh Rajput, an elderly man, lost his life after a bull attacked him while he was walking outside his home, tossing him into the air and causing fatal injuries.
As stray cattle-related incidents continue to occur, who bears the responsibility for ensuring public safety?
dont you people have shame on yourself
Doing these kinda things in public is just a curse for the people who are coming to the same public places with their family 🚶
Shame on you Genz
I donno where this shit is happening 🚶
A concerned citizen has reported a disturbing incident affecting morning walkers in the Koramangala area of Bengaluru. According to the complaint, a group of individuals has been repeatedly harassing people who go for their morning walks around 5:00 AM. They allegedly attempt to forcibly snatch mobile phones and money from walkers, creating fear and insecurity among residents. Today, the situation reportedly escalated further when the victims were physically assaulted and an unknown substance was sprayed into their eyes. Such acts are not only criminal but also pose a serious threat to public safety. Residents should be able to walk freely and safely in their own neighborhoods without fear of intimidation, robbery, or violence. The complainant has urged the Koramangala Police to take immediate and strict action against those responsible, increase patrolling during early morning hours, and ensure that citizens are protected from such anti-social elements. If these incidents are left unchecked, they could embolden offenders and put more innocent people at risk.Authorities must act swiftly to identify the culprits, prevent further incidents, and restore a sense of security for residents. Public spaces belong to law-abiding citizens, not to those who seek to terrorize and exploit them.

Bharat ek irony-pradhan desh hai.
YouTuber Rachna Gurjar of Shivpuri (MP) used to make reels showing off her gold collection. Thieves studied her house layout and CCTV placement from those very reels and then stole her gold, cash, and a even crate of energy drinks.
Yesterday, he was drunk at his fans' house in Kanakapura and unable to walk straight to Bangalore when gunmen took him to a car and made him sit.
We are blessed to have such a Chief Minister 🤣🤣
