Unacceptable abuse of power.

​Additional DCP Sandeep Lamba must be suspended immediately for hitting a female protester. High-ranking officers should be held to higher standards, not given impunity.

Urgent safety hazard at the new Guwahati Airport—water is actively leaking from the ceiling and creating dangerous.

The leakage is clearly visible in the lounge, near the food counter, opposite Gate No. 6, and in the food court

A community dog, Monu, was found this morning on Mumbai’s Coastal Road, nearly 7 km away from BVM Garden, Cuffe Parade, where he was last seen around midnight. He was frightened, being chased by other dogs, and running into traffic.

A frustrated Mumbaikar asking a simple question: what are ordinary citizens supposed to do in situations like this?

See the video. This is not a one-off traffic issue. This is the daily, chronic chaos outside GD/BD Somani School on GD Somani Road, Cuffe Parade captured over time.

The honking, congestion, double parking and road obstruction during school hours has been going on for far too long. I have personally been documenting this with videos and pics on X since 2025.

An online petition was also started, which received 180+ signatures from residents and supporters. A written complaint was submitted to the police with a copy of the petition, all relevant details, pictures and videos.

The relevant authorities have been repeatedly tagged and informed. And yet, there still appears to be no permanent, enforceable solution.

The most unnerving part is that it is not as if nearby space and parking infrastructure do not exist. They do. Please see the pictures. Then why is a narrow public road still being taken over every day?

What are ordinary citizens supposed to do when a public road is allowed to be taken over like this every day? Not asking for a favour. Just asking for basic traffic discipline, noise control, enforcement of no-parking rules, and a permanent solution to a problem that residents have been forced to live with for years.

Is there anyone, anywhere in authority, actually listening to real citizen issues like this? Please tell me if I am missing a step, a process, or a forum somewhere - because ordinary citizens should not have to fight this hard for basic enforcement of the law. 🙏

#MeteorSighting: Eyewitnesses in New England and @NOAA’s GOES-19 satellite reported a bright fireball on Saturday, May 30, at 2:06 p.m EDT accompanied by a loud noise. The meteor appears to have fragmented at an altitude of 40 miles over northeast MA and southeast NH. The energy released at breakup is estimated to be equivalent to about 300 tons of TNT, which accounts for the loud noise.

Eyewitness accounts supplied by the American Meteor Society.
