Some businesses in Bengaluru are refusing to give you the physical bill and you have to give them your mobile number for them to send you your bill. Is this legal? I have to give up my private information to get an invoice?

You fool! Kalaripayattu was a Buddhist art form initiated in Tamil Nadu by the Buddhist king Bodhidharma; he went to China and spread it across the world.
Your Parshu is a fictional character, so stop stealing our art, you thieving Brahmins.
When India accidentally wiped out its vultures, half a million people died in five years.
The bird doing zoomies in this video runs the most extreme digestive system in the animal kingdom. Vulture stomach acid sits near pH 1, strong enough to destroy anthrax, rabies, and botulism in the carcasses they eat. A flock strips a cow to bone in about 45 minutes.
India had 50 million of them. Free sanitation at national scale, in a country where religious custom means most cattle die natural deaths and every dead cow becomes a carcass someone has to deal with.
Then the patent on diclofenac expired in 1994. Farmers started using the cheap painkiller on livestock. Trace amounts left in a carcass cause kidney failure in vultures. Within a decade, 50 million birds fell to a few thousand. The fastest collapse of any bird species since the passenger pigeon.
The carcasses didn't disappear. Feral dogs took the vultures' place and brought rabies with them. Rotting remains leached into waterways. In districts where vultures once thrived, human death rates rose more than 4 percent. Economists at Chicago and Warwick put the toll at 100,000 extra deaths a year and $69 billion in annual damages.
So yes, the goofy bird sprinting down the walkway is adorable. It's also a disease firewall that evolution spent millions of years building and one generic painkiller nearly erased in ten.
Ganga is considered sacred, yet I can't recall a single Hindutva org vandalizing the offices of companies that pollute it for hurting religious sentiments.
Since a large number of illiterate people are asking this, I will answer it for all my bois.
Humans are born with a relatively fixed number of muscle fibers. If protein is restricted during the mid-to-late fetal stages, myogenesis is stunted, and the baby is born with fewer total muscle fibers. After birth, muscles grow by increasing the size of existing fibers (hypertrophy), not by generating new ones (hyperplasia). A child born with a significantly lower baseline of muscle fibers will generally have less overall muscle mass and a lower upper limit for muscular growth throughout their life, regardless of their diet after birth.
In the long run, this leads to lower muscle mass, insulin resistance and metabolic syndrome.
In short, how muscular you will end up is mostly determined while you are in womb. Nothing much you can do about it, sadly
So if you are an Indian woman reading this, please eat some protein. Perhaps your babies might end up muscular
NEVER FORGET: On this day in 1937, Japan began what is known today as the Rape of Nanjing, killing 300,000 innocent Chinese in the most barbaric, inhumane ways possible.
You might think of Japan in terms of Pikachu and sushi, but the Chinese have different feelings.
