Do children watch wrong content on their phones? Turn it off immediately with this one setting

In today's digital age, children have unprecedented access to a vast array of content through their smartphones. While this can be a great tool for learning and entertainment, it also poses risks, as children may inadvertently come across inappropriate or harmful content. Fortunately, there's a simple solution to mitigate this risk: parental controls. The Pervasive Presence of Digital Devices It's no secret that smartphones have become ubiquitous in our society, with children often getting their hands on them at increasingly younger ages. From educational apps to social media platforms, there's no shortage of content available at their fingertips. However, this easy access also means that children can stumble upon content that is not suitable for their age or maturity level. The Dangers of Inappropriate Content Exposure to inappropriate content can have serious consequences for children. It can shape their perceptions, influence their behavior, and even lead to emotional distress. Moreover, certain types of content, such as violent or sexually explicit material, can be particularly harmful to young minds. The Importance of Parental Controls Parental controls are a valuable tool for safeguarding children against exposure to inappropriate content on their phones. By setting up these controls, parents can restrict access to certain websites, apps, or content categories that they deem unsuitable for their children. This provides peace of mind for parents and ensures that children can safely explore the digital world. How to Activate Parental Controls Activating parental controls on your child's phone is a straightforward process that can be done through the device's settings. Most smartphones offer built-in parental control features that allow parents to: 1. Limit App Usage: Set time limits for specific apps to prevent excessive screen time. 2. Filter Web Content: Block access to websites with adult or mature content. 3. Restrict In-App Purchases: Prevent unauthorized purchases within apps and games. 4. Monitor Activity: Keep track of your child's online activity and usage patterns. Empowering Parents with Knowledge In addition to setting up parental controls, it's essential for parents to have open and ongoing conversations with their children about responsible digital behavior. By educating children about the potential dangers of inappropriate content and teaching them how to navigate the online world safely, parents can empower them to make informed choices and protect themselves from harm. Conclusion: Keeping Children Safe Online In conclusion, while smartphones offer numerous benefits for children, they also present risks in the form of exposure to inappropriate content. By activating parental controls and fostering open communication with their children, parents can create a safe and secure online environment where children can explore and learn without encountering harmful content.

Is your partner cheating? Identify with these signs

Infidelity can be a painful experience in any relationship. If you suspect your partner of cheating, it's crucial to look out for signs that may indicate their unfaithfulness. While no single behavior guarantees infidelity, a combination of these signs might raise red flags. Sudden Change in Routine One of the most common signs of infidelity is a sudden change in your partner's routine. This could include working late frequently, making unexplained trips, or spending more time away from home without a valid reason. Lack of Communication If your partner becomes secretive about their phone calls, texts, or emails, it could be a sign of cheating. They may also avoid discussing certain topics or become defensive when questioned about their whereabouts. Emotional Distance Infidelity often leads to emotional disconnection in a relationship. Your partner may seem distant, uninterested in spending time with you, or unwilling to engage in meaningful conversations. H4: Unexplained Expenses Another sign to watch out for is unexplained expenses. Your partner may start spending money on gifts, hotel rooms, or dinners out without a reasonable explanation. Changes in Appearance When someone is cheating, they often make an effort to improve their appearance to impress their new partner. Your partner may suddenly start dressing differently, hitting the gym more frequently, or paying more attention to their grooming habits. Decreased Intimacy A decrease in physical intimacy can be a sign of infidelity. If your partner shows little interest in being intimate with you or seems disengaged during intimate moments, it could indicate that they are getting their needs met elsewhere. Defensive Behavior Cheating partners may become defensive when questioned about their behavior or whereabouts. They may overreact to innocent inquiries or try to deflect blame onto you to avoid discussing the issue. Gut Feeling Sometimes, your intuition can be a powerful indicator of infidelity. If you have a gut feeling that something is not right in your relationship, it's essential to trust your instincts and investigate further. Changes in Social Circle A cheating partner may start spending more time with new friends or coworkers. They may also become secretive about their social plans or hesitant to introduce you to their new acquaintances. Lack of Trust Infidelity can erode trust in a relationship. If you find yourself constantly questioning your partner's honesty or feeling paranoid about their actions, it may be a sign that they are being unfaithful. Blame Shifting Cheating partners often try to shift the blame onto their significant other to justify their actions. They may accuse you of being too controlling, insecure, or neglectful to deflect attention away from their infidelity. Changes in Sleep Patterns If your partner's sleep patterns suddenly change, it could be a sign of infidelity. They may stay up late texting or talking to their lover, or they may come home at odd hours, disrupting your sleep routine. Lack of Interest in Future Plans A cheating partner may lose interest in making plans for the future with you. They may avoid discussing long-term goals or commitments, indicating that they see their future without you in it. Secrecy About Technology If your partner suddenly becomes secretive about their devices, such as password protecting their phone or clearing their browser history, it could be a sign that they are hiding something from you. Changes in Sexual Behavior Infidelity can lead to changes in sexual behavior within a relationship. Your partner may show a sudden increase or decrease in sexual desire, or they may introduce new techniques or preferences that they learned from someone else. Gaslighting Gaslighting is a manipulative tactic used by cheating partners to make their significant other doubt their own perceptions and sanity. They may deny or minimize their actions, making you feel like you're overreacting or imagining things. Lack of Remorse If your partner shows little to no remorse for their actions when confronted about infidelity, it may indicate that they have checked out of the relationship emotionally and are not invested in repairing the damage they've caused. If you notice any of these signs in your relationship, it's essential to address them openly and honestly with your partner. While none of these behaviors conclusively prove infidelity, they may indicate underlying issues that need to be addressed for the health of your relationship. Leave Shimla-Manali!

Who moves on sooner after heartbreak, a boy or a girl?

Heartbreak is a deeply personal and often painful experience that many individuals encounter at some point in their lives. Whether initiated by a breakup, the loss of a loved one, or the end of a significant relationship, heartbreak can leave lasting emotional scars and profoundly impact one's well-being. While the intensity and duration of heartbreak can vary from person to person, there's a prevailing curiosity about whether certain gender stereotypes hold true when it comes to how quickly individuals recover from heartbreak. Breaking Down Stereotypes: Stereotypes surrounding gender and emotional resilience suggest that women are inherently better equipped to handle heartbreak than men. This belief stems from societal norms that portray women as more emotionally expressive and nurturing, while men are expected to embody strength, stoicism, and emotional restraint. However, these stereotypes fail to capture the complexity of human emotions and the diverse ways in which individuals navigate the aftermath of a breakup. Stereotype vs. Reality: Contrary to popular belief, research suggests that men and women may experience and cope with heartbreak in distinct ways. While women are often perceived as being more emotionally sensitive and prone to experiencing intense feelings of sadness and grief after a breakup, men may express their emotions differently or may be more likely to suppress them altogether. This difference in emotional expression can create a false impression that women are taking longer to recover from heartbreak, while men appear to move on more quickly. Cultural and Social Influences: The way individuals respond to heartbreak is heavily influenced by cultural and social norms that dictate acceptable gender behavior. From a young age, boys are socialized to avoid showing vulnerability or weakness, as it is often equated with femininity. As a result, many men learn to mask their emotional pain and adopt a facade of strength, even in the face of heartbreak. On the other hand, girls are encouraged to express their emotions openly and seek support from friends and family members, which may contribute to the perception that women are better equipped to cope with heartbreak. Communication Patterns: Communication styles also play a significant role in how men and women navigate heartbreak. Men, conditioned to prioritize independence and self-reliance, may be less inclined to seek emotional support from others and instead attempt to cope with their feelings internally. This can lead to a misconception that men are moving on faster from a breakup when, in reality, they may be struggling silently behind closed doors. Conversely, women may be more inclined to share their feelings with others and seek solace in the company of friends or loved ones, which can prolong the healing process but also provide valuable emotional support. Gender Differences in Coping Mechanisms: Emotional Expression: Women are often socialized to be more emotionally expressive and in touch with their feelings, which may manifest in openly acknowledging and processing their emotions following a breakup. From tearful conversations with friends to journaling their thoughts and feelings, women may actively engage in activities that allow them to confront and make sense of their heartbreak. In contrast, men may struggle to articulate their emotions or may feel pressure to conform to masculine ideals of emotional stoicism. This can result in men internalizing their pain and seeking outlets for distraction or avoidance, such as burying themselves in work or engaging in high-risk behaviors. Cognitive Strategies: In addition to differences in emotional expression, men and women may employ distinct cognitive strategies to cope with heartbreak. Women may be more inclined to ruminate on the details of the breakup, replaying conversations and analyzing what went wrong in an effort to gain closure. While this introspective process can be cathartic, it may also prolong feelings of sadness and longing. In contrast, men may adopt a more problem-solving approach, focusing on practical solutions or distractions to avoid dwelling on their emotions. However, this tendency to suppress or avoid painful feelings can impede the healing process and delay emotional resolution. Social Support Networks: The presence of a strong support system is crucial for both men and women as they navigate the emotional aftermath of a breakup. Women are often portrayed as seeking comfort and validation from friends, family, or support groups, which can provide a sense of solidarity and understanding during a difficult time. However, men may face barriers to seeking social support due to fears of appearing weak or vulnerable. As a result, they may rely more heavily on individual coping strategies or turn to activities that offer a temporary distraction from their pain. Factors Influencing Recovery Time: Individual Personality Traits: Beyond gender differences, individual personality traits can also influence how quickly someone recovers from heartbreak. Introverted individuals, who tend to be more inwardly focused and introspective, may require more time to process their emotions and come to terms with the end of a relationship. Extroverts, on the other hand, may seek out social interaction as a means of distraction or emotional support, which can expedite the healing process. However, it's important to recognize that everyone copes with heartbreak differently, regardless of their personality type. Length and Intensity of Relationship: The duration and intensity of the relationship can significantly impact how long it takes to heal from a breakup. Long-term relationships that are deeply intertwined with one's identity, routines, and future plans may elicit a more prolonged and intense grieving process. Conversely, shorter relationships or those characterized by ambivalence or uncertainty may be easier to move on from, as the emotional investment is less significant. However, the end of any relationship, regardless of its duration, can trigger feelings of loss, rejection, and uncertainty about the future. Support System: The presence of a supportive network of friends, family members, or mental health professionals can facilitate the healing process and provide essential emotional validation and guidance. For women, the act of sharing their feelings with others and receiving empathy and understanding can be instrumental in processing their emotions and moving forward. Similarly, men may benefit from seeking out trusted confidants or seeking therapy to explore their feelings in a safe and nonjudgmental environment. Ultimately, the quality of one's support system can profoundly impact their ability to heal and recover from heartbreak. The Importance of Self-Care: Prioritizing Mental Health: Regardless of gender, it's essential for individuals to prioritize their mental and emotional well-being in the aftermath of a breakup. This may involve engaging in self-care practices such as exercise, mindfulness, and creative expression to manage stress and promote emotional resilience. Additionally, seeking professional help from a therapist or counselor can provide valuable guidance and support as individuals navigate the complex emotions associated with heartbreak. By prioritizing self-care and seeking support when needed, individuals can take proactive steps toward healing and rebuilding their lives after a breakup. Avoiding Comparison: It's natural to compare one's healing process to that of others, especially in a culture that glorifies resilience and quick recovery. However, it's essential to recognize that everyone's journey through heartbreak is unique, and there is no one-size-fits-all timeline for healing. Comparing oneself to others can fuel feelings of inadequacy or self-doubt and hinder the healing process. Instead, individuals should focus on their own needs and emotions, allowing themselves the time and space to grieve and heal at their own pace. In conclusion, the idea that one gender moves on sooner after heartbreak than the other is a simplistic and outdated notion that fails to capture the complexity of human emotions. While societal norms and gender stereotypes may influence how men and women express and cope with heartbreak, the reality is that individuals navigate the healing process in their own way and at their own pace. By recognizing and respecting these differences, we can create a more empathetic and inclusive understanding of heartbreak and support those who are experiencing it. Leave Shimla-Manali!

The Amarnath Yatra is one of the most revered pilgrimage journeys in India, attracting thousands of devotees every year. Nestled in the Himalayas, the Amarnath Cave houses a natural ice lingam, representing Lord Shiva, making it a significant spiritual destination for Hindus. However, embarking on this journey requires meticulous planning and preparation to ensure a safe and fulfilling experience. Understanding the Significance Before delving into the logistics of the journey, it's essential to understand the profound significance of the Amarnath Yatra. For devout Hindus, this pilgrimage is not merely a physical journey but a spiritual quest to seek blessings from Lord Shiva. The Amarnath Cave symbolizes purity, divinity, and the eternal presence of the divine. Preparing for the Journey Embarking on the Amarnath Yatra necessitates thorough preparation to overcome the challenges posed by the rugged terrain and harsh weather conditions.

Do not store these fruits in the fridge even by mistake

When it comes to preserving fruits, many of us instinctively reach for the fridge as the go-to storage solution. However, not all fruits thrive in the chilly confines of the refrigerator. In fact, some fruits suffer significant flavor loss, texture alterations, or even accelerated spoilage when subjected to cold temperatures. Let's delve into the fruits that should never be refrigerated, ensuring they retain their optimal taste and quality. H1: Bananas: Nature's Perfect Snack Bananas are a staple in many households, beloved for their natural sweetness and convenience. However, refrigerating them can cause their peels to darken prematurely. This occurs due to the cold hindering the enzymatic processes responsible for maintaining the vibrant yellow hue of the peel. Additionally, the cold temperatures can disrupt the ripening process, leading to a duller flavor and mushier texture. Tomatoes: Versatile and Vibrant Tomatoes are a kitchen essential, whether sliced on sandwiches, diced in salads, or simmered into sauces. Surprisingly, refrigeration can compromise their taste and texture. The cold temperatures can cause the flesh to become mealy and the flavor to dull as the natural sugars are disrupted. Instead, store tomatoes at room temperature to preserve their juicy, flavorful profile. Avocados: Creamy and Nutrient-rich Avocados are prized for their creamy texture and nutrient-packed flesh. While it's tempting to prolong their shelf life by refrigerating them, this can hinder the ripening process and result in unappetizing, rubbery fruit. To enjoy perfectly ripe avocados, store them at room temperature until they yield to gentle pressure, indicating they're ready to eat. Stone Fruits: Juicy and Flavorful Stone fruits like peaches, plums, and nectarines boast juicy flesh bursting with flavor. However, refrigerating these fruits can dull their taste and cause the flesh to become mealy. Instead, store them at room temperature until ripe, then enjoy their peak flavor and texture. Once ripe, they can be refrigerated briefly to prolong freshness, but allow them to return to room temperature before consuming for the best taste experience. Citrus Fruits: Zesty and Refreshing Citrus fruits, including oranges, lemons, and limes, add brightness to both sweet and savory dishes. While they may seem suited to the cold, refrigerating citrus fruits can actually lead to a loss of flavor and juiciness. Instead, store them at room temperature or in a cool, dark pantry to maintain their optimal taste and texture. Pineapple: Tropical Sweetness Pineapple's tropical sweetness makes it a favorite addition to fruit salads, smoothies, and savory dishes. However, refrigerating pineapple can cause it to become overly soft and lose its vibrant flavor. To keep pineapple fresh, store it at room temperature until ripe, then enjoy its juicy, tangy goodness. Melons: Summer Refreshment Melons like watermelon, cantaloupe, and honeydew are synonymous with summer refreshment. While it may seem logical to chill these fruits, refrigeration can actually impair their flavor and texture. Instead, store whole melons at room temperature until ripe, then refrigerate cut portions for a refreshing treat. Berries: Bursting with Flavor Berries, including strawberries, blueberries, raspberries, and blackberries, are delicate fruits prized for their vibrant colors and sweet-tart flavor. However, refrigerating berries can lead to moisture retention, accelerating mold growth and spoilage. To prolong the freshness of berries, store them unwashed in a single layer in the fridge and rinse just before eating. Mangoes: Tropical Delight Mangoes, with their tropical aroma and sweet, juicy flesh, are a true delight. While refrigeration may seem like a logical choice, it can actually impair the ripening process and diminish flavor. Instead, allow mangoes to ripen at room temperature until they yield to gentle pressure near the stem end, indicating they're ready to enjoy. Persimmons: Autumn Splendor Persimmons, with their vibrant orange hue and honey-like sweetness, are a seasonal delicacy. Refrigerating persimmons can disrupt the ripening process and lead to a bitter taste. To enjoy the full flavor of persimmons, store them at room temperature until ripe, then savor their autumn splendor. Papayas: Tropical Indulgence Papayas are prized for their luscious, orange flesh and tropical flavor. However, refrigerating papayas can cause the flesh to become mushy and bland. To enjoy the full flavor and texture of papayas, store them at room temperature until ripe, then indulge in their tropical sweetness. Figs: Nature's Jam Figs, with their sweet, jam-like flesh and delicate skin, are a culinary treasure. Refrigerating figs can cause them to lose their delicate texture and flavor. Instead, store figs at room temperature until ripe, then enjoy their luscious sweetness on its own or paired with cheese and nuts. Cherries: Summer's Bounty Cherries, with their glossy skins and juicy flesh, are a quintessential summer treat. Refrigerating cherries can cause them to become soft and lose their crisp texture. Instead, store cherries at room temperature until ripe, then refrigerate to prolong freshness. Peppers: Colorful and Flavorful Peppers, whether sweet or spicy, add vibrant color and flavor to dishes. While refrigeration may seem like a logical choice, it can actually cause peppers to become soft and lose their crunch. Instead, store peppers at room temperature for optimal texture and flavor. Eggplants: Versatile and Nutritious Eggplants are prized for their meaty texture and ability to absorb flavors. However, refrigerating eggplants can cause them to become bitter and mushy. Instead, store eggplants at room temperature until ready to use, then enjoy them grilled, roasted, or sauted to perfection. Potatoes: Starchy Staples Potatoes are a versatile staple in many cuisines, prized for their starchy texture and ability to complement a wide range of dishes. While refrigeration may seem like a way to prolong their shelf life, it can actually cause the starches to convert to sugar, resulting in a gritty texture and unpleasant flavor. Instead, store potatoes in a cool, dark pantry or cupboard away from onions, which can cause them to sprout prematurely. Onions: Culinary Essential Onions are a fundamental ingredient in countless recipes, prized for their pungent flavor and aromatic appeal. While refrigeration may seem like a way to prevent sprouting and extend shelf life, it can actually cause onions to become soft and moldy. Instead, store onions in a cool, dry place away from direct sunlight, ensuring proper air circulation to prevent premature spoilage. Garlic: Flavorful Enhancement Garlic is a culinary powerhouse, valued for its pungent flavor and aromatic appeal. While refrigeration may seem like a way to prolong its shelf life, it can actually cause garlic to sprout and become rubbery. Instead, store garlic in a cool, dry place away from direct sunlight, allowing proper air circulation to maintain optimal freshness. Bread: Daily Staple Bread is a dietary staple enjoyed in various forms around the world, from crusty baguettes to fluffy sandwich loaves. While refrigeration may seem like a way to prevent mold growth and extend shelf life, it can actually cause bread to dry out and become stale more quickly. Instead, store bread in a cool, dry place or freeze slices for longer-term storage, ensuring they're tightly wrapped to prevent freezer burn. Basil: Fragrant Herb Basil is a fragrant herb prized for its fresh, aromatic flavor. While refrigeration may seem like a way to prolong its shelf life, it can actually cause basil leaves to wilt and turn black. Instead, store basil at room temperature in a glass of water, similar to a bouquet of flowers, and cover the leaves with a plastic bag to retain moisture. Coffee Beans: Liquid Gold Coffee beans are a cherished commodity, prized for their rich, complex flavors and invigorating aroma. While refrigeration may seem like a way to preserve freshness, it can actually cause coffee beans to absorb odors from other foods in the fridge. Instead, store coffee beans in an airtight container in a cool, dark place to maintain their optimal flavor profile. Honey: Nature's Sweetener Honey is a natural sweetener beloved for its golden hue and rich, complex flavor. While refrigeration may seem like a way to prevent crystallization, it can actually cause honey to become thick and grainy. Instead, store honey at room temperature in a sealed container, where it will remain liquid and pourable for months. Olive Oil: Culinary Essential Olive oil is a culinary staple prized for its fruity flavor and versatility. While refrigeration may seem like a way to preserve freshness, it can actually cause olive oil to solidify and lose its flavor. Instead, store olive oil in a cool, dark place away from heat and light to maintain its optimal taste and texture. Nuts: Nutrient-rich Snack Nuts are a nutrient-rich snack enjoyed in various forms, from almonds to walnuts. While refrigeration may seem like a way to prevent rancidity, it can actually cause nuts to absorb odors from other foods in the fridge. Instead, store nuts in an airtight container in a cool, dark place to maintain their freshness and flavor. Chocolate: Indulgent Treat Chocolate is an indulgent treat enjoyed in various forms, from rich dark bars to creamy milk chocolates. While refrigeration may seem like a way to prevent melting, it can actually cause chocolate to absorb odors from other foods in the fridge. Instead, store chocolate in a cool, dry place away from direct sunlight to maintain its optimal flavor and texture. Wine: Liquid Elixir Wine is a beloved beverage enjoyed for its complex flavors and ability to complement a wide range of dishes. While refrigeration may seem like a way to preserve freshness, it can actually cause wine to lose its flavor and aroma. Instead, store wine in a cool, dark place away from heat and light to maintain its optimal taste profile. Eggs: Breakfast Staple Eggs are a breakfast staple enjoyed in various forms, from scrambled to poached. While refrigeration may seem like a way to prolong freshness, it can actually cause eggs to absorb odors from other foods in the fridge. Instead, store eggs in their original carton in the refrigerator's main compartment to maintain their quality and flavor. Butter: Culinary Essential Butter is a culinary essential prized for its rich, creamy flavor and versatility. While refrigeration may seem like a way to prevent spoilage, it can actually cause butter to become overly hard and difficult to spread. Instead, store butter in an airtight container in the refrigerator's main compartment to maintain its freshness and flavor. Cheese: Dairy Delight Cheese is a dairy delight enjoyed in various forms, from creamy brie to sharp cheddar. While refrigeration may seem like a way to prevent spoilage, it can actually cause cheese to lose its flavor and aroma. Instead, store cheese in an airtight container in the refrigerator's main compartment to maintain its optimal texture and taste. Milk: Calcium-rich Beverage Milk is a calcium-rich beverage enjoyed on its own or added to cereal and recipes. While refrigeration is essential to prevent spoilage, it's important to note that milk should be stored in the main compartment of the fridge, rather than the door, where temperatures fluctuate more significantly. This ensures that milk maintains its freshness and quality for longer. Yogurt: Probiotic Powerhouse Yogurt is a probiotic powerhouse enjoyed for its creamy texture and tangy flavor. While refrigeration is essential to prevent spoilage, it's important to store yogurt in the main compartment of the fridge, rather than the door, to maintain its optimal temperature and consistency. This ensures that yogurt remains fresh and delicious for longer. Leafy Greens: Nutrient-rich Leafy greens like spinach, kale, and lettuce are nutrient-rich staples in many diets. While refrigeration is essential to prevent wilting and spoilage, it's important to store leafy greens in the crisper drawer of the fridge, where humidity levels can be adjusted to maintain freshness. This ensures that leafy greens remain crisp and vibrant for longer. Fresh Herbs: Flavorful Additions Fresh herbs like parsley, cilantro, and mint add vibrant flavor to dishes. While refrigeration is essential to prevent wilting and spoilage, it's important to store fresh herbs in a glass of water on the refrigerator's shelf, similar to a bouquet of flowers. This ensures that herbs remain fresh and flavorful for longer. Root Vegetables: Nutrient-rich Staples Root vegetables like carrots, beets, and radishes are nutrient-rich staples in many diets. While refrigeration is essential to prevent sprouting and spoilage, it's important to store root vegetables in the crisper drawer of the fridge, where humidity levels can be adjusted to maintain freshness. This ensures that root vegetables remain crisp and flavorful for longer. Cruciferous Vegetables: Nutrient-packed Cruciferous vegetables like broccoli, cauliflower, and Brussels sprouts are nutrient-packed additions to meals. While refrigeration is essential to prevent wilting and spoilage, it's important to store cruciferous vegetables in the crisper drawer of the fridge, where humidity levels can be adjusted to maintain freshness.

In multiple organ failure, which organ becomes useless first? Understand the complete chronology

Multiple organ failure (MOF), also known as multiple organ dysfunction syndrome (MODS), is a severe and often life-threatening condition characterized by the progressive failure of two or more organ systems. The sequence of organ failure in MOF can vary depending on the underlying cause and individual patient factors. However, there are certain patterns commonly observed in the progression of this condition. The Sequence of Organ Failure in Multiple Organ Failure 1. Sequential Failure In MOF, organ failure typically occurs in a sequential manner, with certain organs failing before others. This sequence may vary, but there are some general patterns that healthcare providers commonly observe. 2. Respiratory Failure Respiratory failure often manifests as one of the initial signs of MOF. This can occur due to conditions such as acute respiratory distress syndrome (ARDS), pneumonia, or severe sepsis. In MOF, the lungs may fail to oxygenate the blood adequately, leading to hypoxemia and respiratory distress. 3. Cardiovascular Failure Cardiovascular failure may follow respiratory failure in the progression of MOF. This can manifest as shock, where the heart is unable to pump enough blood to meet the body's demands. Causes of cardiovascular failure in MOF may include septic shock, cardiogenic shock, or hypovolemic shock. 4. Renal Failure Renal failure often occurs subsequent to respiratory and cardiovascular failure in MOF. This can manifest as acute kidney injury (AKI) or acute renal failure, where the kidneys are unable to adequately filter waste products and maintain fluid and electrolyte balance. Causes of renal failure in MOF may include hypoperfusion, sepsis, or nephrotoxic medications. 5. Hepatic Failure Hepatic failure may occur concurrently with or following renal failure in MOF. This can manifest as acute liver injury or liver dysfunction, where the liver is unable to perform its vital functions, such as detoxification and synthesis of proteins. Causes of hepatic failure in MOF may include ischemia, sepsis, or hepatotoxic medications. 6. Gastrointestinal Failure Gastrointestinal failure can also occur in MOF, although it may not always be as prominent as other organ failures. This can manifest as intestinal ischemia, paralytic ileus, or gastrointestinal bleeding. Causes of gastrointestinal failure in MOF may include hypoperfusion, sepsis, or bowel obstruction. 7. Neurological Failure Neurological failure may occur as a late manifestation of MOF, particularly in cases where there is severe hypoxemia or metabolic derangements. This can manifest as altered mental status, seizures, or coma. Causes of neurological failure in MOF may include cerebral hypoperfusion, metabolic encephalopathy, or intracranial hemorrhage. 8. Chronology of Organ Failure The chronology of organ failure in MOF can vary depending on the underlying cause, severity of illness, and individual patient factors. However, the sequence described above provides a general framework for understanding the progression of this condition. Multiple organ failure is a complex and life-threatening condition characterized by the sequential failure of two or more organ systems. While the specific sequence of organ failure may vary, there are common patterns observed in the progression of this condition. Understanding the chronology of organ failure in MOF is essential for timely recognition, management, and treatment of this critical condition. Leave Shimla-Manali!

Sharing these responsibilities with a spouse can alleviate the financial strain. Difficulty Finding a Partner As you get older, it might become increasingly challenging to find a suitable partner. This can be due to various factors, such as a smaller dating pool, higher expectations, or simply having less time to invest in building a relationship. Consequently, delaying marriage might result in settling for a partner who isn't the best match for you. Biological Clock For those who wish to have children, delaying marriage can pose challenges due to the biological clock. Women, in particular, have a finite window for childbearing, and advancing age can increase the risks of fertility issues and pregnancy complications. Even with advancements in reproductive technology, the optimal time for starting a family is often earlier rather than later. Social Pressure There can be societal pressure to marry within a certain timeframe, especially in cultures where marriage is highly valued. Delaying marriage might subject you to scrutiny or questioning from family, friends, or even strangers, leading to feelings of inadequacy or insecurity about your relationship status. Emotional Health Marriage provides emotional support and companionship, which can contribute to overall well-being. Delaying marriage might mean prolonged periods of loneliness or isolation, particularly if your social circle consists mainly of married friends and family members. This can have negative effects on mental health and happiness. Missed Opportunities Postponing marriage could mean missing out on opportunities for personal growth and development within a committed relationship. Marriage often fosters emotional maturity, compromise, and communication skills, which are valuable for navigating life's challenges. By delaying marriage, you might deprive yourself of these learning experiences. Elderly Care As you age, the need for caregiving might arise for yourself or your aging parents. Being married can provide a built-in support system for managing caregiving responsibilities, whether it's for each other or for elderly relatives. Delaying marriage could leave you without a partner to share these caregiving duties, potentially leading to increased stress and strain. Legal Protections Marriage affords couples certain legal protections and benefits, such as spousal inheritance rights, decision-making authority in medical emergencies, and tax advantages. Delaying marriage means postponing access to these legal protections, which could have implications in various aspects of life, including estate planning and healthcare. Regret In the long run, delaying marriage might lead to feelings of regret or what ifs. Reflecting on missed opportunities or wondering if things could have been different had you married earlier can create emotional turmoil. Regretting not marrying sooner can overshadow the benefits of waiting, making it important to consider the potential consequences carefully. Conclusion While there are valid reasons for delaying marriage, such as focusing on career or personal growth, it's essential to weigh the potential disadvantages. From financial burdens to emotional health and missed opportunities, postponing marriage can have far-reaching consequences. Ultimately, the decision of when to marry is deeply personal and should consider individual circumstances and priorities. Leave Shimla-Manali!

'Cool Summer of India' campaign seeks to boost tourism in lesser-known cities during summer

NEW DELHI: Aiming to attarct more international tourists during summer and at the same time decongest the overcrowded hill stations in the country, the Ministry of Tourism is all set to launch a social media campaignCool Summer of India. With this, the Ministry is seeking to promote the country as an all season tourist destination. The ministry in consultation with the state governments and union territory (UT) administrations has picked about 50 destinations. These destinations will be featured on various digital platforms, the Incredible India portal under the first phase of the campaign. During the promotional exercise, efforts will be made to ensure that more tourists visit the suggested cities during May and June; months during which a large part of the country reels under severe heat waves. The ministry is also said to engage embassies in the social media campaign so that tour operators from major markets are covered. The objective is to challenge the notion that India is hot during summer; not an ideal destination to visit during the season, especially in May and June. The list of destinations to be promoted under the campaign includes many off-beat and lesser known locations and cities where the weather is cool and pleasant while a major part of the country experiences heatwave, said officials. Think India is too hot for #summer fun? Stay tuned for a refreshing revelation! #coolsummersofindia #incredibleindia #myincredibleindia #visitindia #exploreindia #Indiatourism #Indiatravel #India #summergetaway #summervacation #summervacay @tourismgoi @PIBTour @PIB_India pic.twitter.com/s2MhNh8ydd Incredible!ndia (@incredibleindia) May 3, 2024 The campaign will also extensively be showcased at Arabian Travel Market in Dubai starting next week. The ministry has created a micro site of the campaign comprising interactivities, graphics and games through which the users may read about destinations and choose. The destinations to be promoted as part of the campaign have been selected based on an assessment of the state governments and UTs, which are known for their unique cuisines and crafts and have a history behind them. This will help states to divert influx of tourists to other or less-frequented destinations and control tourist flow in regular locations such as Manali, Mussoorie, Nainital and Shimla. The cities come to a halt during summer months because of traffic snarls as tourists from across states and UTs throng the towns, officials added. The campaign will focus on tourist arrivals from countries in middle-east. The campaign will also benefit small and lesser known cities, which have good infrastructure, economically. Even on weekends in many places, occupancy in hotels and guest houses is just 50 percent, said officials.

Plant these plants in the room, you will not feel hot

Are you tired of feeling like you're living in a sauna during the summer months? Do you find yourself constantly battling against the heat, even with the air conditioning on full blast? Well, it might be time to bring some greenery into your space! Transform Your Room into a Cool Oasis With the right selection of plants, you can transform your room into a cool oasis where you can escape the scorching heat outside. Not only do these plants add a touch of natural beauty to your space, but they also act as natural air conditioners, helping to lower the temperature and create a more comfortable environment. How Do Plants Cool the Air? Plants have a remarkable ability to cool the air through a process called transpiration. During transpiration, plants absorb water from the soil through their roots and release it into the air through tiny pores in their leaves called stomata. As this water evaporates, it carries away heat energy, effectively lowering the surrounding air temperature. H3: Best Plants for Cooling Your Room When it comes to selecting plants for cooling purposes, not all plants are created equal. Some species are particularly adept at transpiring large amounts of water and can therefore have a more significant cooling effect. Here are some of the best plants to consider: 1. Snake Plant (Sansevieria trifasciata) The snake plant, also known as mother-in-law's tongue, is a popular choice for indoor spaces due to its low maintenance requirements and air-purifying abilities. In addition to filtering out toxins from the air, the snake plant also releases oxygen at night, making it an excellent choice for bedrooms. 2. Aloe Vera (Aloe barbadensis miller) Not only is aloe vera prized for its soothing gel, but it also has cooling properties that can help lower the temperature in your room. This succulent thrives in bright, indirect light and requires minimal watering, making it a great choice for beginners. 3. Peace Lily (Spathiphyllum) The peace lily is not only beautiful to look at, but it also helps to humidify the air and remove toxins such as formaldehyde, benzene, and ammonia. With its lush green foliage and elegant white flowers, the peace lily adds a touch of sophistication to any room. 4. Boston Fern (Nephrolepis exaltata) Boston ferns are renowned for their ability to add a touch of lushness to indoor spaces while also helping to cool the air. These ferns thrive in high humidity environments, so be sure to mist them regularly or place them in a bathroom or kitchen where moisture levels are higher. 5. Areca Palm (Dypsis lutescens) The areca palm, also known as the butterfly palm, is not only a visually striking plant but also an excellent air purifier and humidifier. With its feathery fronds and elegant appearance, the areca palm adds a tropical touch to any room while helping to keep it cool and comfortable. Tips for Maximizing the Cooling Effect While incorporating these plants into your room can certainly help to lower the temperature, there are a few additional tips you can follow to maximize their cooling effect: H3: 1. Group Plants Together Plants release moisture into the air through transpiration more effectively when they are grouped together. Consider creating small clusters of plants in various corners of your room to maximize their cooling effect. H3: 2. Increase Humidity Levels Plants thrive in humid environments, so increasing the humidity levels in your room can help them transpire more effectively. You can achieve this by placing a small bowl of water near your plants or using a humidifier. H3: 3. Provide Adequate Air Circulation Good air circulation is essential for plants to transpire effectively. Make sure there is adequate airflow in your room by opening windows or using fans to keep the air moving. H3: 4. Choose the Right Size Plants While larger plants may have a more significant cooling effect due to their increased transpiration rate, smaller plants can still contribute to lowering the temperature in your room. Choose plants that suit the size of your space and your aesthetic preferences.By incorporating these cooling plants into your room and following a few simple tips, you can create a cool and comfortable oasis where you can escape the summer heat. Not only will these plants help to lower the temperature, but they will also add a touch of natural beauty to your space. So why not bring a little bit of the outdoors inside and enjoy a cooler, more comfortable living environment? Leave Shimla-Manali! Everyone has failed in front of this hidden place of Himachal!

Keep these things in mind while decorating children's room, the room will look special

By considering various aspects such as colors, themes, organization, and functionality, you can transform a simple room into a magical haven where your child can thrive and feel truly special. 1. Choose a Theme that Sparks Imagination Why: A cohesive theme sets the tone for the entire room and provides a canvas for other design elements to come together harmoniously. How: Consider your child's interests, whether it's outer space, dinosaurs, princesses, or superheroes. Choose a theme that resonates with them and inspires their imagination. 2. Incorporate Vibrant Colors Why: Bright and cheerful colors can stimulate a child's senses and contribute to a lively atmosphere. How: Opt for a color scheme that complements the chosen theme while avoiding overwhelming the space. Use colorful accents such as bedding, rugs, and wall art to add pops of color throughout the room. 3. Prioritize Safety Why: Safety should always be a top priority when decorating a child's room to prevent accidents and injuries. How: Ensure that furniture is securely anchored to the wall to prevent tipping. Choose child-safe materials for furnishings and decorations, avoiding sharp edges and small parts that could pose choking hazards. 4. Create Functional Zones Why: A well-organized room with designated zones for sleeping, playing, and studying promotes efficiency and encourages independence. How: Arrange furniture to delineate different areas of the room, such as a cozy reading nook with a bean bag chair, a play corner with toy storage bins, and a study area with a desk and chair. 5. Personalize with Personal Touches Why: Adding personalized touches makes the room feel uniquely theirs and fosters a sense of ownership and belonging. How: Display your child's artwork, photographs, and crafts to showcase their creativity. Incorporate items that reflect their interests and personality, such as favorite books, sports memorabilia, or musical instruments. 6. Maximize Storage Solutions Why: Adequate storage helps keep the room organized and clutter-free, making it easier for children to find and put away their belongings. How: Utilize a combination of open shelving, bins, baskets, and closet organizers to store toys, clothes, books, and other essentials.

Create a Cozy Retreat for Sleep Why: A comfortable and soothing sleep environment is essential for a child's physical and emotional well-being. How: Choose a quality mattress and bedding that provide adequate support and comfort. Use blackout curtains or blinds to block out light and create a conducive sleep environment. Incorporate soft lighting, such as a nightlight or bedside lamp, for a calming ambiance. 8. Encourage Creativity and Play Why: Play is crucial for a child's cognitive, emotional, and social development, and the room should be designed to inspire creativity and exploration. How: Include ample space for imaginative play, such as a dress-up area, puppet theater, or building block station. Provide art supplies, easels, and a designated art corner where your child can unleash their creativity without worrying about making a mess. 9. Embrace Flexibility for Growth Why: Children's interests and preferences evolve over time, and a flexible room design allows for easy updates and adaptations as they grow. How: Choose versatile furniture and decor items that can be repurposed or easily swapped out to accommodate changing tastes and needs. Consider investing in modular furniture or adjustable shelving systems that can adapt to different configurations. 10. Foster a Sense of Wonder Why: Above all, the goal of decorating a children's room is to create a space that sparks joy, wonder, and a sense of magic. How: Incorporate elements of whimsy and imagination, such as fairy lights, themed wall decals, or a ceiling adorned with glow-in-the-dark stars. Encourage storytelling and make-believe adventures to ignite your child's imagination and make their room truly special.

It's about creating a nurturing and inspiring environment where your child can grow, learn, and dream. By following these tips and infusing the space with love and creativity, you can design a room that will be cherished by your little one for years to come. Leave Shimla-Manali!

Soccer-Kokubo's injury time penalty save secures title for Japan

Soccer-Kokubo's injury time penalty save secures title for Japan Japan lifted the Under 23 Asian Cup after they beat Uzbekistan 1-0 on Friday, an injury time penalty save by Leo Kokubo securing the trophy for Go Oiwa's side. Substitute Fuki Yamada gave the Japanese the lead when he stroked his shot into the bottom corner of the Uzbek goal in the 91st minute, but a handball by Hiroki Sekine gifted Uzbekistan an opportunity to take the game into extra time. Kokubo, however, dived to his right to keep out Umarali Rakhmanaliev's spot kick and earn the Japanese their second under 23 title since 2016. Japan and Uzbekistan went into the final at Doha's Jassim bin Hamad Stadium having already claimed two of Asia's three berths at the Olympics in Paris in the summer, with the tournament serving as the continent's final eliminator for the Games. Iraq took the third place on Thursday with an extra-time win over Indonesia, who will play Guinea on May 9 in a playoff for the last remaining spot at the finals.

Those with dry skin should not worry at all in summer, follow these tips

Dry skin can be a year-round challenge, but the summer months often exacerbate its effects. Higher temperatures, increased sun exposure, and air conditioning can all contribute to parched, flaky skin. For those already grappling with dry skin, these factors can pose additional challenges. However, with the right approach, it's possible to keep dry skin hydrated and healthy even during the hottest months of the year. Hydration is Key Drink Plenty of Water: Hydration starts from within. Make sure to drink an ample amount of water throughout the day to keep your skin hydrated from the inside out. Use a Humidifier: Air conditioning can sap moisture from the air, leading to further drying of the skin. Using a humidifier indoors can help replenish moisture levels, especially while you sleep. Gentle Cleansing Choose Mild Cleansers: Opt for gentle, hydrating cleansers that won't strip your skin of its natural oils. Look for products labeled as gentle, hydrating, or moisturizing. Avoid Hot Water: While a steaming hot shower might feel soothing, it can actually strip your skin of its natural oils, leaving it even drier. Stick to lukewarm water for bathing and washing your face. Moisturize Regularly Use Rich, Emollient Moisturizers: Look for moisturizers specifically formulated for dry skin, preferably those containing ingredients like hyaluronic acid, glycerin, shea butter, or ceramides. These ingredients help lock in moisture and nourish the skin. Apply Moisturizer Immediately After Bathing: Pat your skin dry after bathing and apply moisturizer while your skin is still damp. This helps seal in moisture more effectively. Sun Protection Apply Sunscreen Daily: Even if you have dry skin, sunscreen is a non-negotiable step in your skincare routine, especially during summer. Look for broad-spectrum sunscreens with SPF 30 or higher and reapply every two hours when outdoors. Choose Moisturizing Sunscreens: Some sunscreens are formulated with moisturizing ingredients to provide hydration along with sun protection. Consider opting for these if you have dry skin. Protective Clothing Cover Up: When spending extended periods in the sun, consider wearing lightweight, long-sleeved clothing made from breathable fabrics like cotton or linen to protect your skin from harmful UV rays. Don't Forget the Accessories: Wide-brimmed hats and UV-protective sunglasses not only add style to your summer ensemble but also provide additional protection for your face and eyes. Exfoliate Gently Limit Exfoliation: While exfoliation can help remove dead skin cells and promote cell turnover, overdoing it can exacerbate dryness. Limit exfoliation to once or twice a week, using gentle exfoliants suitable for dry skin. Hydrating Treatments Consider Hydrating Masks: Incorporate hydrating masks into your skincare routine to give your skin an extra boost of moisture. Look for masks containing ingredients like hyaluronic acid, aloe vera, or honey for maximum hydration. Watch Your Diet Eat Hydrating Foods: Incorporate hydrating foods into your diet, such as fruits and vegetables with high water content. Cucumber, watermelon, strawberries, and oranges are excellent choices. Omega-3 Fatty Acids: Foods rich in omega-3 fatty acids, such as salmon, flaxseeds, and walnuts, can help maintain healthy skin barrier function, reducing dryness and inflammation. Stay Consistent Establish a Routine: Consistency is key when it comes to skincare. Establish a daily skincare routine and stick to it, even on days when your skin feels relatively hydrated. By following these simple yet effective tips, those with dry skin can navigate the summer months with confidence, knowing that their skin is adequately hydrated and protected from the elements. With proper care and attention, you can maintain soft, supple skin all year round, regardless of the weather.

How to take care of skin after cosmetic surgery, know from expert

Cosmetic surgery can provide transformative results, but proper post-operative care is crucial to ensure optimal healing and long-term outcomes. Skin, being the body's largest organ, requires special attention and care after undergoing cosmetic procedures. To help you navigate this crucial phase, we've compiled expert advice on how to take care of your skin post-cosmetic surgery. Understanding the Healing Process Before delving into specific skincare tips, it's essential to understand the typical healing process after cosmetic surgery. Immediately after the procedure, your skin will be delicate, swollen, and possibly bruised. Over the following days and weeks, your skin will gradually heal, and visible improvements will emerge. Follow Your Surgeon's Instructions First and foremost, adhere closely to the post-operative instructions provided by your surgeon. These instructions are tailored to your specific procedure and will guide you through the initial stages of recovery. They may include advice on cleansing, dressing changes, medication, and activity restrictions. Gentle Cleansing Proper cleansing is vital for preventing infection and promoting healing. Use a gentle, non-abrasive cleanser recommended by your surgeon to cleanse the treated area. Avoid harsh soaps or exfoliants, as these can irritate the skin and interfere with the healing process. Moisturize Regularly Keeping your skin moisturized is essential for maintaining its health and elasticity. Choose a hypoallergenic moisturizer that is free of fragrances and other irritants. Apply it regularly to the treated area, taking care to avoid any incisions or sutures until they are fully healed. Protect Your Skin from the Sun Sun exposure can exacerbate swelling, increase the risk of scarring, and delay the healing process. Protect your skin by avoiding direct sunlight, especially during peak hours. When outdoors, wear protective clothing, such as wide-brimmed hats and long sleeves, and apply a broad-spectrum sunscreen with SPF 30 or higher. Avoid Smoking and Alcohol Smoking and alcohol consumption can impair circulation, inhibit healing, and increase the risk of complications. If you smoke, try to quit before undergoing cosmetic surgery, and refrain from smoking during the recovery period. Similarly, limit alcohol intake to promote optimal healing. Stay Hydrated and Eat a Balanced Diet Hydration is key to maintaining healthy skin and supporting the body's healing process. Drink plenty of water throughout the day to stay hydrated. Additionally, focus on eating a balanced diet rich in vitamins, minerals, and antioxidants to support skin health and promote healing from within. Be Patient and Manage Expectations Recovery from cosmetic surgery takes time, and visible results may not be immediate. Be patient with your body's healing process and avoid the temptation to rush things. Communicate openly with your surgeon about your expectations and any concerns you may have along the way. Seek Professional Guidance If you experience any unusual symptoms or complications during the recovery process, don't hesitate to contact your surgeon. Prompt intervention can help address issues before they escalate and ensure the best possible outcome.Proper skincare after cosmetic surgery is essential for achieving optimal results and minimizing the risk of complications. By following these expert tips and staying committed to your post-operative care regimen, you can help ensure a smooth recovery and enjoy the full benefits of your cosmetic procedure.

Why do I feel dizzy in summer? Know the methods of prevention from experts

Summer is often associated with sunshine, vacations, and outdoor activities. However, for some individuals, it can also bring about unpleasant sensations such as dizziness. This phenomenon can be attributed to various factors, including dehydration, heat exhaustion, and changes in blood pressure. Understanding why you might feel dizzy during the summer months and learning effective prevention methods is essential for staying healthy and enjoying the season to its fullest. Dehydration: A Common Culprit Dehydration is a primary cause of dizziness during summer. When the body loses more fluids than it takes in, essential electrolytes such as sodium and potassium become imbalanced, leading to symptoms like lightheadedness and dizziness. Understanding Dehydration Dehydration occurs when the body doesn't have enough fluids to function properly. Factors such as excessive sweating, inadequate fluid intake, and high temperatures can contribute to dehydration, especially during the summer months. Impact on Blood Pressure Dehydration can also affect blood pressure regulation, causing it to drop and resulting in dizziness when standing up suddenly. This condition, known as orthostatic hypotension, is more prevalent in older adults but can affect individuals of any age, particularly during hot weather. Heat Exhaustion and Heatstroke Heat exhaustion and heatstroke are serious heat-related illnesses that can cause dizziness, among other symptoms. Heat Exhaustion Heat exhaustion occurs when the body overheats due to prolonged exposure to high temperatures and insufficient hydration. Symptoms include dizziness, nausea, weakness, and excessive sweating. Heatstroke Heatstroke is a life-threatening condition characterized by a body temperature of 104F (40C) or higher. In addition to dizziness, symptoms may include confusion, rapid heartbeat, and unconsciousness. Immediate medical attention is necessary for heatstroke to prevent serious complications. Prevention Strategies Preventing dizziness in summer requires proactive measures to stay hydrated, cool, and protected from the sun's harmful rays. Stay Hydrated Drink plenty of water throughout the day, especially when engaging in outdoor activities or spending time in the sun. Avoid excessive consumption of caffeine and alcohol, as they can contribute to dehydration. Protect Yourself from the Sun Wear lightweight, breathable clothing and a wide-brimmed hat to shield yourself from direct sunlight. Use sunscreen with a high SPF rating to protect your skin from sunburn, which can exacerbate dehydration and heat-related illnesses. Take Breaks in the Shade When spending time outdoors, take regular breaks in shaded areas to cool down and rest. Avoid strenuous activities during the hottest parts of the day, typically between 10 a.m. and 4 p.m. Cooling Measures Use fans, air conditioning, or cool baths to lower your body temperature and alleviate symptoms of heat-related dizziness. Applying cold compresses to the neck and wrists can also help regulate body temperature. Seeking Medical Attention If you experience persistent or severe dizziness, fainting, confusion, or other concerning symptoms, seek medical attention immediately. These could be signs of a more serious underlying condition or heat-related illness that requires prompt treatment. By understanding the causes of dizziness in summer and implementing effective prevention strategies, you can enjoy the season safely and comfortably. Stay hydrated, stay cool, and listen to your body's signals to ensure a healthy and enjoyable summer experience.

Whether the relationship is professional or personal, it is very important to say 'No' on these occasions

In the intricate dance of human relationships, setting boundaries is akin to drawing lines in the sand. These boundaries serve as the framework within which interactions take place. They delineate what is acceptable and what isn't, what one is willing to give and what one expects in return. Without boundaries, relationships can become murky and fraught with misunderstandings. Saying 'No' is one of the most effective ways to establish and reinforce these boundaries. It's a clear signal that one recognizes their own limitations and respects their own needs. Respecting Your Time and Energy: A Valuable Currency Time and energy are finite resources, akin to currency in the economy of life. Just as one wouldn't squander their hard-earned money on frivolous purchases, one shouldn't squander their time and energy on activities or commitments that don't align with their priorities or values. Saying 'No' is a way of safeguarding these precious resources. It's a declaration that one values their own well-being enough to refrain from overextending themselves. By conserving their time and energy, individuals can ensure that they have enough reserves to devote to the people and activities that truly matter to them. Maintaining Integrity: The Backbone of Character Integrity is the bedrock upon which trust and respect are built. It's the quality that allows individuals to remain true to their principles and values, even in the face of temptation or adversity. Saying 'No' when one is unable to fulfill a request is an act of integrity. It's an acknowledgment of one's limitations and a refusal to compromise on one's principles. While it may be tempting to say 'Yes' simply to please others or avoid conflict, doing so can erode one's integrity over time. By staying true to themselves and their capabilities, individuals can preserve their integrity and earn the trust and respect of others. Fostering Respect: The Currency of Relationships Respect is the foundation upon which all healthy relationships are built. It's the acknowledgment of each other's autonomy, worth, and dignity. Saying 'No' assertively and respectfully is a powerful way to command respect from others. It sends the message that one values themselves enough to stand up for their own needs and priorities. Conversely, constantly saying 'Yes' out of fear of disappointing or upsetting others can lead to resentment and undermine one's sense of self-worth. By asserting themselves and setting boundaries, individuals can foster mutual respect in their relationships. Avoiding Resentment: The Poison in Relationships Resentment is like a poison that slowly eats away at the fabric of relationships. It festers beneath the surface, poisoning interactions and sowing seeds of discord. One of the primary causes of resentment is the failure to assert oneself and set boundaries. When individuals say 'Yes' to requests or commitments that they're not truly comfortable with, they're setting themselves up for resentment down the line. This resentment can manifest as passive-aggressive behavior, emotional withdrawal, or even outright hostility. By learning to say 'No' upfront, individuals can prevent resentment from taking root and preserve the harmony of their relationships. How to Say 'No' Effectively: The Art of Assertiveness Saying 'No' assertively and respectfully is a skill that can be honed with practice. Here are some tips for mastering the art of assertiveness: Be Honest: Speak Your Truth Honesty is the cornerstone of assertiveness. When saying 'No,' it's important to be honest about your reasons for declining. Whether it's due to a lack of time, energy, or interest, clearly communicate your rationale in a respectful manner. Avoid fabricating excuses or sugarcoating the truth, as this can erode trust and credibility. Offer Alternatives: Seek Win-Win Solutions Saying 'No' doesn't have to be a dead end. In many cases, there may be alternative solutions or compromises that can satisfy both parties. When declining a request, consider offering alternatives that align better with your capabilities or preferences. This demonstrates a willingness to collaborate and find mutually beneficial solutions. Use Assertive Language: Stand Your Ground Assertiveness is about striking a balance between firmness and politeness. When saying 'No,' use assertive language that clearly communicates your decision while maintaining a respectful tone. Avoid apologizing excessively or hedging your words, as this can weaken the impact of your message. Instead, speak with confidence and conviction, and don't be afraid to assert your boundaries. Practice Self-Compassion: Prioritize Self-Care Above all, remember that it's okay to prioritize your own well-being. Saying 'No' doesn't make you selfish or uncaring; it's an act of self-preservation. Practice self-compassion and remind yourself that you deserve to prioritize your own needs and priorities. By taking care of yourself, you'll be better equipped to show up fully in your relationships and contribute positively to the lives of others. Conclusion: The Power of 'No' in Relationships In conclusion, saying 'No' is a crucial skill in both professional and personal relationships. It allows individuals to set boundaries, respect their own time and energy, maintain integrity, foster respect, and avoid resentment. By learning to say 'No' assertively and respectfully, individuals can safeguard their well-being and preserve the harmony of their relationships. So the next time you're faced with a request or commitment that doesn't align with your priorities or values, don't be afraid to say 'No.' Your relationshipsand your sanitywill thank you for it.

Never make these mistakes while talking

It is important to have a very good first impression because people are also forming their opinion about you through it. To make a good impression on anyone, it is very important that while you talk, your body language and facial expressions should also look polite and good. Many times people say that he had spoken very well and had answered all the questions correctly, yet someone else has also been selected. Actually, the reason behind this may be some mistakes made while talking. While talking, some of your mistakes can have a negative impact on the other person and due to this, sometimes not only your image can get spoiled in the eyes of the other person, but it also causes loss. The way we communicate is an important part of our personality, hence it is very important to keep some things in mind while talking to anyone. Keep looking here and there while talking: Reports say that whether it is office colleagues or friendswhen you are talking to anyone, it is necessary to make eye contact with that person. The habit of looking here and there while talking or checking your phone can spoil your impression. Due to this, the person in front may either feel lack of confidence in you or he may think that you are not interested in what he has to say at all. Starting to say one's point without completing what the other person has said: According to the news, when we get too excited while talking to someone, we tend to hurry up in saying what we say. During this time, speaking without completing what the other person is saying completely spoils your image. Therefore, when you are talking to someone, listen to the other person calmly and then reply. This will not only make your personality look good in the eyes of others, but you will also be able to understand and answer the question properly. It is very important to pay attention to facial expressions: While talking to anyone, facial expressions also tell a lot about you. If you are talking, laughing too much or having a strict expression on your face will make the other person feel uncomfortable. Keep moving your hands and legs again and again: Not only this, body language plays a very important role in what your image is going to be in the eyes of the other person. Therefore, moving your feet or moving your hands too much while talking to anyone is showing your lack of confidence. Incorrect sitting posture: Not only this, if you have gone for some official work then it is very important that your sitting posture should be correct. Sitting slouched or sitting with the body too tense may appear to be low in confidence. When you are talking to someone, sit comfortably.

What things should asthma patients keep, know from health experts...

Living with asthma can present challenges, but with the right knowledge and strategies, individuals can effectively manage their condition and lead fulfilling lives. Health experts recommend several key practices and considerations for asthma patients to ensure optimal health and well-being. 1. Recognizing Asthma Symptoms Recognizing the signs and symptoms of asthma is crucial for timely intervention and management. Common symptoms include: 1.1 Shortness of Breath One of the hallmark symptoms of asthma is shortness of breath, which manifests as a feeling of breathlessness or difficulty breathing. This sensation often occurs during physical exertion or as a result of exposure to triggers such as allergens or irritants. Individuals with asthma may experience varying degrees of shortness of breath, ranging from mild discomfort to severe respiratory distress. 1.2 Wheezing Wheezing is another common symptom of asthma characterized by a high-pitched whistling sound when breathing. It typically occurs when airflow through the narrow airways of the lungs is obstructed, leading to turbulence and vibration of the respiratory tract. Wheezing may be more pronounced during exhalation but can also occur during inhalation in some cases. 1.3 Chest Tightness Many asthma patients experience chest tightness, which is often described as a sensation of pressure or constriction in the chest. This feeling can be unsettling and uncomfortable, resembling the tightening of a band around the chest. Chest tightness may accompany other asthma symptoms or occur independently, depending on individual triggers and the severity of the condition. 1.4 Coughing Frequent coughing is a common symptom of asthma, particularly during the night or in response to triggers such as allergens, cold air, or exercise. Asthma-related coughing may be dry and non-productive or accompanied by the production of mucus or phlegm. Coughing serves as a mechanism to clear the airways of irritants and excess mucus, but persistent or severe coughing may indicate poorly controlled asthma. 2. Understanding Asthma Triggers Identifying and avoiding triggers is essential for managing asthma symptoms and preventing exacerbations. Common asthma triggers include: 2.1 Allergens Allergens such as pollen, dust mites, pet dander, mold, and certain foods can trigger allergic reactions and exacerbate asthma symptoms in susceptible individuals. Allergic asthma, a common subtype of asthma, is characterized by an immune response to specific allergens, leading to inflammation of the airways and bronchoconstriction. 2.2 Irritants Environmental irritants such as cigarette smoke, air pollution, strong odors, and chemical fumes can irritate the airways and trigger asthma symptoms. Even minor exposure to irritants can provoke respiratory distress in sensitive individuals, highlighting the importance of minimizing exposure to such triggers whenever possible. 2.3 Respiratory Infections Viral respiratory infections, including the common cold, flu, and respiratory syncytial virus (RSV), can exacerbate asthma symptoms and increase the risk of asthma attacks. Respiratory infections cause inflammation of the airways, leading to narrowing and obstruction, which can worsen existing asthma symptoms and compromise lung function. 2.4 Exercise Exercise-induced asthma, also known as exercise-induced bronchoconstriction (EIB), is characterized by the onset of asthma symptoms during or after physical activity. Exercise triggers bronchoconstriction and airway inflammation in susceptible individuals, leading to symptoms such as coughing, wheezing, chest tightness, and shortness of breath. Proper warm-up, adequate hydration, and use of pre-exercise bronchodilators can help minimize exercise-induced asthma symptoms. 3. Medication Management Proper use of asthma medications is essential for controlling symptoms and preventing flare-ups. Health experts recommend the following: 3.1 Controller Medications Long-term control medications, such as inhaled corticosteroids, leukotriene modifiers, long-acting beta-agonists (LABAs), and combination inhalers, help reduce airway inflammation and prevent asthma symptoms. These medications are typically taken daily to maintain asthma control and minimize the risk of exacerbations. 3.2 Rescue Medications Quick-relief or rescue medications, such as short-acting beta-agonists (SABAs) and oral corticosteroids, provide rapid relief of asthma symptoms during flare-ups or exacerbations. These medications work by quickly relaxing the muscles surrounding the airways, allowing for improved airflow and symptom relief. Rescue medications should be used as needed to alleviate acute symptoms but should not be relied upon as the primary means of asthma control. 3.3 Inhaler Technique Proper inhaler technique is crucial for effective medication delivery and optimal asthma management. Patients should be instructed on how to use their inhalers correctly, including proper inhalation technique, breath coordination, and device priming. Common types of inhalers include metered-dose inhalers (MDIs), dry powder inhalers (DPIs), and soft mist inhalers (SMIs), each of which requires specific instructions for use. 4. Developing an Asthma Action Plan Creating a personalized asthma action plan in collaboration with healthcare providers empowers patients to manage their condition effectively. An asthma action plan typically includes: 4.1 Symptom Monitoring Guidelines for monitoring asthma symptoms and recognizing signs of worsening or exacerbation. Patients are encouraged to track their symptoms regularly and seek medical attention if symptoms worsen or fail to improve with treatment. 4.2 Medication Management Instructions for using controller and rescue medications, including dosages, frequency, and indications for adjustment. Patients should be familiar with their prescribed medications and adhere to their treatment regimen as directed by their healthcare provider. 4.3 Trigger Avoidance Strategies for identifying and avoiding asthma triggers to minimize symptom exacerbation. This may include environmental modifications, such as using air purifiers, avoiding exposure to allergens and irritants, and implementing lifestyle changes to reduce the risk of asthma exacerbations. 4.4 Emergency Response Guidance on what to do in case of a severe asthma attack or emergency situation, including when to seek medical help and when to use emergency medications such as rescue inhalers or oral corticosteroids. Patients should be prepared to take prompt action in the event of an asthma emergency and communicate effectively with healthcare providers to ensure timely intervention and appropriate treatment. 5. Regular Follow-Up and Monitoring Regular follow-up appointments with healthcare providers are essential for monitoring asthma control, adjusting treatment plans as needed, and addressing any concerns or questions. Health experts recommend: 5.1 Asthma Reviews Scheduled asthma reviews with healthcare providers to assess symptom control, medication efficacy, and overall asthma management. During these reviews, healthcare providers may perform lung function tests, review medication adherence, and discuss any changes in symptoms or triggers. 5.2 Lung Function Tests Periodic lung function tests, such as spirometry or peak flow measurements, to evaluate lung function and monitor asthma severity. Lung function tests provide objective measurements of airflow limitation and help assess the effectiveness of asthma treatment over time. 5.3 Medication Reviews Reviewing medication regimens regularly to ensure optimal efficacy and minimize the risk of side effects or complications. Healthcare providers may adjust medication dosages, switch medications, or introduce new therapies based on individual response, treatment goals, and emerging research. By understanding asthma symptoms, identifying triggers, effectively managing medications, developing an asthma action plan, and maintaining regular follow-up with healthcare providers, asthma patients can take control of their condition and enjoy improved quality of life.

VGN Unveils Prestigious Gated Community Enclave VGN PARADISE in Thiruvottiyur, North Chennai

VGN Unveils Prestigious Gated Community Enclave VGN PARADISE in Thiruvottiyur, North Chennai The project comprises 259 plots ranging from 753 Sq.ft. to 1500 sq.ft., all approved by CMDA and Real Estate Regulatory Authority (RERA) VGN's layout are developed with Plug & Play features & Amenities such as Metro water provision, Underground sewage provision, Piped Natural gas (PNG) provision, Underground EB & Stormwater trench. The Chennai-based VGN Group, a leading real estate builder and developer in the city, has launched residential plots at Thiruvottiyur, 200 meters from WIMCO Nagar Metro station in North Chennai. The layout is modelled on a fully-compounded gated community with 259 plots, each ranging from 753 to 1500 sq.ft. Approved by CMDA and Real Estate Regulatory Authority (RERA), the plots are priced at Rs. 6999 per sq.ft. VGN's layout are developed with Plug & Play features & Amenities such as Metro water provision, Underground sewage provision, Piped Natural gas (PNG) provision, Underground EB & Storm water trench. The layout features roads, measuring 7.2 to 9 metre width, built on the standards set by the Indian Roads Congress, a government body. They have raised platforms for pedestrians. The layout has a well-developed park - and there are over a 1000 avenue trees within the gated community. It also has obtained 'Approved Project Financial' (APF) number, making it easy for buyers & investors to get loans from banking and Non-Banking Financial Companies. WIMCO Nagar, where the layout is located, was long considered the secret treasure of Chennai, as its real estate potential is not fully realised. However, the arrival of the Metro Station, the first station on the route in North Chennai, made WIMCO Nagar a pivotal point on Chennais mobility landscape, besides paving the way for rapid infrastructure development - so much so that it is now billed as the next Anna Nagar. Still, land prices at WIMCO Nagar are less than 50% of what they are in Anna Nagar. As WIMCO Nagar is not a low-lying area and as it was not created by destroying any water bodies, the region is not vulnerable to floods. In his comments, Mr. V.N. Devados, Chairman cum Managing Director, VGN Group, said, We have created this vast layout close to the Metro Station. It sports broad roads and a well-developed park. Easy and quick access to roads and trains make the real estate irresistible for those who commute to work. One can reach central part of Chennai within 30 minutes either on road or by train. Also, it takes an equal amount of time to reach both Anna Nagar and WIMCO Nagar from Chennai Central. Better air quality and the availability of water, power, and PNG, besides proper sewage and stormwater drainage are the key attractions for the residents. There are large industries such as Manali Petroleum Refinery, Ennore Thermal Power Station, and MRF, but as they are located well within the industrial zone, the environment is clean in the residential areas. It is well documented that the air quality in WIMCO Nagar is better than what is in Mount Road. He pointed out that the present government has earmarked Rs. 1,000 crore for the Valarum Vada Chennai project which aims to create healthcare facilities, and physical infrastructure in Thiruvottiyur, WIMCO Nagar and other parts of North Chennai. Surveys are being done and there will be many new projects in this region. The government is also planning to develop a beach with parks, bridge, glass tunnel, and cycle tracks. Hence, people looking for a plot to construct homes and good investment opportunities in real estate can choose, WIMCO Nagar in general and our layout VGN Paradise in particular with eyes closed.

ALERT! Stress may cause risk of reduced fertility, dream of becoming parents may remain unfulfilled

Stress, a pervasive aspect of modern life, has been implicated in a myriad of health issues. However, its impact on fertility is a topic gaining increasing attention. Research suggests that stress can significantly affect reproductive health, potentially jeopardizing the dream of parenthood for many individuals and couples. Understanding the Connection The link between stress and fertility revolves around the intricate interplay of hormones and physiological responses within the body. When individuals experience stress, the body releases cortisol, often referred to as the stress hormone. Elevated cortisol levels can disrupt the delicate balance of reproductive hormones, such as estrogen and progesterone, essential for conception and maintaining a healthy pregnancy. Effects on Men For men, chronic stress can lead to a decrease in testosterone levels and sperm production. Additionally, stress-related lifestyle factors like smoking, excessive alcohol consumption, and poor diet choices can further compound fertility issues. Impacts on Women In women, stress may disrupt the menstrual cycle, leading to irregular periods or even amenorrhea (absence of menstruation). Moreover, stress can interfere with ovulation, making it more challenging to conceive. Chronic stress has also been associated with conditions like polycystic ovary syndrome (PCOS) and endometriosis, which can impair fertility. The Role of Psychological Factors Beyond its physiological effects, stress can also exert a significant toll on mental health, further complicating the fertility journey. The emotional burden of infertility can exacerbate stress levels, creating a vicious cycle that adversely affects overall well-being. Psychological Distress The emotional rollercoaster of infertility can lead to feelings of anxiety, depression, and inadequacy. The pressure to conceive coupled with societal expectations and stigma surrounding infertility can intensify psychological distress, placing additional strain on individuals and relationships. Impact on Relationships Coping with infertility can strain even the strongest of relationships. The stress of fertility treatments, coupled with disappointment and uncertainty, may lead to communication breakdowns, feelings of resentment, and diminished intimacy between partners. Managing Stress for Fertility While infertility can be a challenging journey, there are strategies individuals and couples can employ to mitigate the impact of stress and optimize their chances of conception. Mind-Body Techniques Mindfulness meditation, yoga, and deep breathing exercises can help alleviate stress and promote relaxation. These practices not only reduce cortisol levels but also enhance overall emotional well-being.

Whether you're looking to cuddle up by a cozy fireplace, embark on thrilling adventures together, or simply bask in the beauty of nature, Manali has something for every couple. Here's your ultimate guide to planning the perfect trip with your girlfriend to this enchanting hill station. Choosing the Right Time to Visit Before you start planning your trip, it's essential to consider the best time to visit Manali. While Manali is a year-round destination, the ideal time for a romantic getaway is during the spring and summer months (March to June) when the weather is pleasant, and the landscapes are in full bloom. Alternatively, if you're fond of snowfall and winter activities like skiing and snowboarding, plan your trip between December and February. Avoid the monsoon season (July to September) as heavy rainfall may disrupt your outdoor plans. Creating Your Itinerary Now that you've decided on the timing, it's time to create your itinerary. Here's a suggested plan for a romantic getaway in Manali: Day 1: Arrival and Local Exploration Arrive in Manali and check into your cozy accommodation, preferably a charming cottage or a boutique hotel with stunning views. Take a leisurely stroll through the streets of Old Manali, hand in hand with your partner, and explore the quaint cafes, shops, and local markets. Visit the Hadimba Devi Temple, a beautiful wooden temple surrounded by deodar forests, and seek blessings for your romantic journey ahead. Enjoy a romantic dinner at one of the many restaurants in Old Manali, offering delectable Himachali cuisine and mesmerizing views of the surrounding mountains. Day 2: Adventure and Excitement Gear up for an adrenaline-pumping day of adventure activities. Opt for river rafting in the Beas River, paragliding over the Solang Valley, or zorbing in the lush meadows. Embark on a thrilling ATV ride or rent a motorcycle and explore the scenic trails together, stopping for picturesque photo opportunities along the way. Indulge in a picnic lunch amidst nature, surrounded by snow-capped peaks and cascading waterfalls. In the evening, unwind with a soothing couple's spa session to relax and rejuvenate your senses after a day of adventure. Day 3: Serenity and Romance Start your day with a romantic breakfast in bed, served with breathtaking views of the Himalayas from your accommodation. Take a leisurely drive to Solang Valley or Rohtang Pass (depending on accessibility), and spend the day soaking in the panoramic vistas and indulging in snow activities like skiing and snowboarding (if visiting in winter). As the sun begins to set, find a secluded spot overlooking the valley and enjoy a romantic sunset together, sipping on hot cocoa or champagne. Conclude your day with a candlelit dinner under the starry sky, surrounded by the serenity of the mountains and the warmth of your love. Day 4: Departure and Fond Memories Bid farewell to Manali with a heavy heart but with cherished memories that will last a lifetime. Before you leave, capture a few more moments together amidst the breathtaking landscapes for your photo album. Promise each other to return soon for another romantic escapade in this paradise on earth. Tips for a Memorable Trip Pack appropriate clothing and footwear, especially if you plan to engage in outdoor activities. Book your accommodation in advance, preferably a cozy cottage or a romantic boutique hotel. Carry essential items like sunscreen, sunglasses, and a camera to capture the beautiful moments. Respect the local culture and customs while exploring the destination. Keep an open mind and embrace the spontaneity of your romantic adventure together. People of this zodiac sign will be worried today due to children or education, know your horoscope Your day is going to start like this today, know your horoscope Today is going to be like this for Gemini, know your horoscope....

India's 'Mini Tibet', know where it is and how to visit

Nestled in the picturesque state of Himachal Pradesh, India, lies the enchanting town of Dharamshala. Often referred to as Mini Tibet, this serene destination has garnered attention for its vibrant Tibetan culture, breathtaking landscapes, and spiritual ambiance. The Tibetan Influence One of the most captivating aspects of Dharamshala is its strong Tibetan influence. In 1959, His Holiness the 14th Dalai Lama fled Tibet and sought refuge in India, eventually settling in Dharamshala. Since then, the town has become the epicenter of Tibetan exile life, attracting Tibetan refugees and spiritual seekers from around the world. McLeod Ganj: The Heart of Dharamshala At the heart of Dharamshala lies McLeod Ganj, a bustling suburb that serves as the residence of the Dalai Lama and the Tibetan government-in-exile. Here, visitors can immerse themselves in Tibetan culture by exploring monasteries, attending teachings and meditation sessions, and indulging in authentic Tibetan cuisine. Namgyal Monastery One of the most significant landmarks in McLeod Ganj is the Namgyal Monastery, which serves as the personal monastery of the Dalai Lama. Visitors can witness monks engaged in prayer and rituals, soak in the tranquil atmosphere, and even participate in meditation sessions led by experienced practitioners. Tsuglagkhang Complex Adjacent to the Namgyal Monastery is the Tsuglagkhang Complex, which houses the residence of the Dalai Lama, the Tsuglagkhang Temple, and the Tibet Museum. Here, visitors can gain insight into Tibetan Buddhism, admire exquisite thangka paintings, and pay their respects at the shrine of Avalokiteshvara, the Buddha of Compassion. Exploring Beyond McLeod Ganj While McLeod Ganj is undoubtedly the focal point of Dharamshala, the surrounding areas offer their own unique charm. From serene trekking trails to cascading waterfalls, there's no shortage of natural beauty to explore. Triund Trek Adventure enthusiasts can embark on the Triund Trek, a moderate trek that rewards hikers with breathtaking views of the Himalayas. The trail winds through dense forests, alpine meadows, and rocky terrain, culminating in a panoramic vista of the Dhauladhar Range. Bhagsu Waterfall For a more leisurely experience, visitors can visit the Bhagsu Waterfall, located just a short distance from McLeod Ganj. Surrounded by lush greenery, this cascading waterfall offers a tranquil escape from the hustle and bustle of city life. How to Reach Dharamshala Dharamshala is well-connected by road, rail, and air, making it easily accessible from major cities across India. By Road The town is approximately 475 kilometers from Delhi and can be reached by road via NH44. State-run buses and private taxis are available from cities like Delhi, Chandigarh, and Manali. By Rail The nearest railway station to Dharamshala is Pathankot, located approximately 85 kilometers away. From Pathankot, visitors can take a taxi or bus to reach Dharamshala. By Air The nearest airport is Gaggal Airport, also known as Kangra Airport, located approximately 13 kilometers from Dharamshala. Regular flights operate from cities like Delhi and Chandigarh. Dharamshala offers a unique blend of Tibetan culture, natural beauty, and spiritual serenity, making it a must-visit destination for travelers seeking a tranquil retreat. Whether you're exploring the vibrant streets of McLeod Ganj or trekking through the pristine Himalayan landscapes, Dharamshala promises an unforgettable experience that will leave you feeling rejuvenated and inspired.

I pray Lord Ram to provide her good sense: Vikramaditya Singh slams Kangana Ranaut

I pray Lord Ram to provide her good sense: Vikramaditya Singh slams Kangana Ranaut Slamming Bharatiya Janata Party candidate and actress Kangana Ranaut for her Chhota Pappu remark, Himachal Pradesh Minister Vikramaditya Singh said on Thursday that he would pray to Lord Ram to give her some good sense. The Congress leader further said that instead of misleading people by diverting attention, she should speak up on the real issues. The Minister's response comes after Ranaut, in her rally in Manali, attacked Congress leaders for their anti-women mindset and referred to Vikramaditya Singh as Chhota Pappu. BJP has fielded actor Kangana Ranaut, renowned for movies like Queen, Manikarnika and 'Tanu Weds Manu,' from the Mandi constituency in the upcoming Lok Sabha elections. In a video message, Singh said that Kangana Ranaut is trying to mislead people and divert the issues of the state and challenged her to have a debate with him. We respect our elder sister Kangana Ranaut. Today she was addressing the people of Manali. Instead of speaking against Congress party and its leaders, it would have been good, if she would have taken up and talked about the issues on the biggest disaster of the century, which happened in Manali a few months ago, Singh said. He also attacked Ranaut, asking what had she done for the people suffering from the massive flood that hit Manali last year. As you claim to be a resident of Manali I want to ask: Did you visit the flood-hit areas of Manali during the disaster? I personally visited all areas. We have restored the roads on the left bank of Manali. We visited the central ministers in Delhi and brought Nitin Gadkari ji to Ground Zero, he further said. I want to tell you that these are not the issues of the people of Himachal Pradesh that what you eat and drink in Mumbai. I would request you please talk on issues of Mandi Parliamentary Constituency, Singh added. The Himachal Minister challenged Ranaut to have a debate with him on their visions for the state. Taking a jibe at her, he said that he would pray to Lord Ram for giving some good sense to Ranaut. What have you contributed and what is going to be your role in the near future. What is your vision and planning for the future as a candidate from Mandi for BJP? You are trying to mislead and spoil the time of the people of Himachal Pradesh, Singh said. I have visited the Ram temple in Ayodhya on January 22nd and taken blessings of Lord Ram. I would pray Lord Ram to provide you a good sense. I would request that let's have a debate on the developmental trajectories of the state. I wish you good luck and wish you keep talking like this and using this kind of language, he added further. Himachal Pradesh has four Lok Sabha seats. The polling on these four seats, along with six Assembly seats in Himachal Pradesh that fell vacant following the disqualification of Congress MLAs will be held on June 1. The BJP had won all four seats in 2019. The counting will be done on June 4. The Mandi constituency is considered a stronghold of former Chief Minister Virbhadra Singh's family. The seat is currently held by the late leader's wife Pratibha Singh. She was elected after a by-election in 2021, after the seat was vacated after the death of BJP MP Ram Swaroop Sharma. (ANI)

Airline ticket prices surge by 20-25% due to Vistara challenges and increased travel demand

Airline ticket prices surge by 20-25% due to Vistara challenges and increased travel demand Travellers will have to shell out more for domestic flights this summer season, with airfares surging 20-25 per cent amid Vistara flight cancellations and strong air travel demand, according to industry experts. At a time when peak summer travel period is round the corner, the airline industry is grappling with challenges in scaling up capacity to match demand and are even using larger aircraft on domestic routes. Faced with pilot woes, Vistara has cut 25-30 flights daily or 10 per cent of its total capacity, a development that comes when the country's airline industry is already operating with reduced number of aircraft due to the bankruptcy of Go First and grounding of over 70 planes by IndiGo over engine issues. An analysis by travel portal ixigo showed that spot fares on certain routes jumped up to 39 per cent during the April 1-7 period compared to March 1-7 period. During the given period, the one way spot fares for Delhi-Bengaluru flights climbed 39 per cent, while it rose 30 per cent for Delhi-Srinagar flights. The rise was 12 per cent for Delhi-Mumbai services and 8 per cent in case of Mumbai-Delhi services, as per the analysis. Bharatt Malik, Senior VP - Air and Hotel Business at travel portal Yatra Online, said the anticipated average airfare surge in the current summer schedule, encompassing both domestic and international routes, is projected to range between 20-25 per cent. ''Vistara's decision to reduce flights by 10 per cent has affected ticket prices on major domestic routes. We've observed a significant surge in fares, with prices skyrocketing by approximately 20-25 per cent across key routes such as Delhi-Goa, Delhi-Kochi, Delhi-Jammu, and Delhi-Srinagar,'' Malik said. He also said that one of the key reasons for the higher airfares is reduction in flight operations by Vistara and added that escalating fuel costs as well as a heightened demand for summer travel has further contributed to the increase. Vistara is to operate more than 300 flights daily in the ongoing summer schedule that started on March 31. ''We are carefully scaling back our operations by around 25-30 flights per day, i.e. roughly 10 per cent of the capacity we were operating. This will take us back to the same level of flight operations as at the end of February 2024, and provide the much-needed resilience and buffer in the rosters,'' Vistara said in a statement on Sunday. ixigo said spot fares have surged by 20-25 per cent on some routes due to rising demand before the peak summer travel season and some flight cancellations. ''However, this is a temporary disruption caused by last-minute flight cancellations and fares should stabilise in a few weeks as soon as flight schedules normalise,'' it said. Jagannarayan Padmanabhan, Senior Director and Global Head, Transport, Mobility, and Logistics Consulting at CRISIL Market Intelligence and Analytics, said the impact of higher airfares on travellers is expected to be substantial. ''As we enter the busy season, we anticipate a 5-7 per cent increase in airfare, with pricing pressure particularly notable on trunk routes like Delhi-Mumbai and Mumbai-Bengaluru. Given that much of the upcoming travel will be for personal reasons and with family, the impact is expected to be substantial. ''Consequently, a considerable number of travellers might choose rail travel for shorter distances instead,'' he noted. According to Malik, flights to popular domestic destinations like Ladakh, Manali and Goa have seen a 20 per cent uptick in prices, reflecting a surge in demand for both staycations and seasonal getaways. Vistara has a fleet of 70 planes comprising 63 aircraft from A320 family and 7 wide-body Boeing 787s. Further, the carrier has deployed larger aircraft like B787-9 Dreamliner and A321 neo on select domestic routes to combine flights or accommodate more customers. In the ongoing summer schedule, Vistara will be operating 25.22 per cent more weekly flights at 2,324. Indian airlines will operate a total of 24,275 weekly domestic flights during the summer schedule starting from March 31, a nearly 6 per cent increase compared to the year-ago period. The number of weekly departures is just 2.30 per cent higher as against 23,732 flights being operated by the scheduled carriers in the winter schedule that ended on March 30, according to aviation regulator DGCA. IndiGo, Air India and Vistara will operate more flights while SpiceJet will reduce departures during the 2024 summer schedule that spans from March 31 to October 26.
