Munnar, Kerala: After a wait of nearly 12 years, the rare Neelakurinji flowers have bloomed in large numbers across the Korandakadu hills near Mattupetty in Munnar.
Yaşlılıkta yalnız kalmamak için çok çocuk değil, kız evlat gerekiyor:
7.000 kişilik ELSA araştırmasına göre, haftalık görüşme sıklığında çocuk sayısının hiçbir ek etkisi yokken; ailede en az 1 kız evladın olması sosyal teması %75 artırıyor.
Too many people have an argument with a sibling, a parent, a friend, and they burn the bridge out of anger; then the years pass, they get busy, the other person gets old, and they realize during a moment of mental clarity that they actually wish they could argue with that person one more time, and let them win this time, but it's too late, and that person isn't coming back.
This isn't Alappuzha it's Thrissur, Kerala.
A peaceful flock of ducks gliding gracefully across calm waters, showcasing the quiet beauty and charm of Kerala beyond its famous backwaters.

Major economies run double-stack freight trains, but they still rely on diesel because standard electric lines can't clear two-story trains.
But instead of settling, India custom-built a 7.5-meter high-rise grid. Today, India is the FIRST and ONLY country on Earth running double-stack containers on pure electric power. This is the scale of transformation happening under the Modi govt.
Homemakers are ‘nation builders’, - Supreme Court. Women’s unpaid care giving work is estimated to contribute 15-17% of India’s GDP, yet it remains unpaid and unrecognised. https://t.co/EP97iY3Yfq

Alexander Zverev on Novak Djokovic:
“There's nobody in the world that should be respected more than Novak. Where he came from, everything that he achieved. He's the greatest of all time.”
একদিন যিনি ₹২৫০০-৪০০০ টাকা মাইনে বাসন মেজে সংসার চালাতেন, আজ তিনি পশ্চিমবঙ্গের মন্ত্রী। আউশগ্রামের (এসসি) বিজেপি বিধায়ক কলিতা মাঝির এই অসাধারণ যাত্রা নারী ক্ষমতায়নের একটি প্রকৃত উদাহরণ।

A devastating day for us. We lost Anik Dutta today.
He was one of the sharpest, most uncompromising filmmakers we had. In a business constantly driven by safe choices and market machinations, he genuinely didn’t care about playing the game. He spoke his mind, consequences be damned.
When Bhooter Bhobishyot released, it completely redrew the map of Bengali cinema for all of us, proving that razor-sharp intelligence and commercial success could coexist.
But beyond the biting satire, I will always remember his absolute reverence for the craft. Nobody understood, loved, and cared for Satyajit Ray’s cinema quite like he did.
Thank you for the films, the unapologetic truth, and the fierce inspiration. Rest in peace, Anik-da. You will be so deeply missed.
VIDEO | Kolkata: Bengal Minister Agnimitra Paul says, "We have taken 2-3 important decisions. In our Urban Development and Municipal Affairs departments, we have taken the principle decision that parking on both sides of the road, which has continued illegally for 15 years, will now be regulated. Parking will be allowed only on the designated side of the road, while parking on the other side will not be permitted. Secondly, parking fees are being collected illegally in parking lots, and taxes from these collections are not being paid to the government. These illegal collections must be stopped immediately so that the entire tax amount goes to the government. Also, the helpline number was not only a women’s helpline number; it was a child helpline number. The same number should now be integrated as a women’s helpline number as well. If anyone faces any problem, both the women’s helpline and child helpline numbers should remain active. In both the Women and Child department and the Urban Development and Municipal Affairs department, a call centre should be set up so that the public can call these two departments and share their issues and grievances.
She adds, "Lastly, wherever there is pollution, we have seen over the last 15 years in Bengal, in Kolkata and Asansol, that garbage is lying everywhere and is not being cleaned. Now this responsibility is also being given to the public through geotagging. We have developed an app where people can send geotagged pictures, and within two hours the corporation or municipality will come and clean the area. But along with this, I also need the cooperation of the public. We should not throw garbage on the roads. Prevention is better than cure. Of course, cleaning is our responsibility, but we must also remain conscious about littering on roads..."
This is it.
Everything learned spending millions on longevity.

Kolkata needs its trams back.
Trams are beneficial for the environment. Tram and light rail systems started about 200 years ago. The system has seen many highs and lows, but they still operate in more than 400 cities across the world, as they provide many benefits compared with other modes of public transport.
A humble req
