Final Rush

 Are you a Car driver who is always in a rush to overtake vehicles? Then this article is for you…

While Tiruppur district is recently on news for frequent road accidents, a few days ago, Syed Ibrahim and Ismail lost their family in a Car accident. Wait, who are they? Are they Cricketer or Cine stars?

Well no, they are common people from a small village in the Tiruppur district in Tamil Nadu. Syed Ibrahim hired Muthu who was a 55-year-old experienced driver and owner of a minivan, to take his family to a wedding in a nearby village.

On the way back home, the tragedy happened when Muthu was trying to overtake a tractor at high speed and a carriage van loaded with vegetables headed towards him. He was unable to brake in time and lost control of the minivan and ended up colliding with the carriage van.

In this impact, everyone was injured and some of them were fighting for their life. The nearby people who saw this crash immediately called the ambulance and all Five were taken to the Hospital.

The 55 years old experienced driver ended up losing his life and 3 other lives of his passengers. In this misfortune, Syed Ibrahim's mother, wife, and daughter were declared dead on arrival at the Hospital, luckily his son Ismail survived with some injuries.

For him, his son's survival would be the only thing that will keep him strong, he has to keep his son in mind always. But for Ismail who lost his mother, younger sister, and grandmother in front of his eyes, what could be the worst nightmare than this incident for him?

Both of them have to live with this memory till their last breath.

For them, it's a huge loss and a lesson to other drivers, even if you are taking your very own family!

So, we can rush at times when it is necessary, but it is better to go at standard speed if there is no such emergency.

Drivers should never lack patience and be stable-minded while driving because that one person is solely responsible for all the lives of his passengers in his vehicle. A small mistake may lead to grave danger.

Here Syed Ibrahim lost almost everything in his life. His beloved mother, Wife, and daughter have left this world. Losing any one of them is a great tragedy, but everyone at the same time and no one is there to console him. What could be his situation of him now, what would he be thinking now? I am sure he would be regretting why he let them go alone and I am pretty sure he would be blaming himself for everything that happened.

May god give them the strength to bear the loss and overcome it over time.

The Golden Workers!

 You may find workers in many industries in the world such as:

  • IT industries
  • Iron and steel industries
  • Textile industries
  • Automobile Industries, etc.

But one particular industry workers are so famous and rich.

It's none other than, Entertainment industry (Film Industry). Work happens on a contract basis here and the revenue generation is in Crores.

There is a Production company that funds every project here, which is so-called as a movie or a Web- series.

So, do they have employees in permanent? The answer is yes!

The production company has employees in permanent who handles work related to their company's nature such as:

  • Helping to clear funds and make sure the team gets it on time,
  • Selecting the right stories and script,
  • Paying the cast and crew,
  • Promoting their movies or series once ready to release.

Some employees work on a contract basis for every project. They are Directors, Cinematographers, Actors, Editors, Story writers, and many more people with different roles.

There is not much difference between other industry workers and Cine industry workers, except for their Salary and their lifestyle. Well, everyone does their work with full passion, but only a few make a good fortune out of it!

But why do Cine industry workers get overpaid and are always in fame?

Because in other industries, only your higher authority will see your hard work and judge you. But in the Film industry, all common people will see your hard work and efforts. Well, the cine industry is not an essential one for the day-to-day life of human beings, but it does inspire people to change their lives and to get evolved.

Many people are attracted to this industry these days. Only because there is a higher chance of earning more than in any industry.

It is not like that they are overpaid than other workers or other industries, it is because their company generates a higher amount of profit in every project.

If the other industries generate the same amount of profit, then even all those industry workers will be paid like cine industry workers. Does everyone in the cine industry make lumpsum money? The answer is No!

There are many underpaid workers as well in this industry but with time and luck may get the chance to progress and outshine others. Nowadays, they also have this new tool to showcase their talent and grab better opportunities.

Every worker does work hard in their industry, but only a few of them get the chance to become something more and this Film industry gives them that opportunity to become "the Golden Workers."

Ingrown Toe Nail

  • It is a condition in which the corner or sides of toe nail grows into the flesh and cause unexplainable pain in your toe even if you walk or jog.

    Symptoms:

    • Pus formation
    • Blood clotting around the affected area
    • Swelling of toe
    • Pain

    Suggested treatment:

    • Removal of Nail
    • Self Healing

    Lets see what will happen in both the treatment,

    • Removal of Nail: Most of the doctors recommended treatment is to remove the nail, which will cause severe pain starting from injecting local anesthesia and also it will take a lot of time to heal and grow back your nail. Even after facing all the pain, your nail would be still defective
    • Self Healing: Our body has tendency to heal everything over the time. Try to cut nails before it touches the skin and over the time it will stop growing inside the skin. Also you should be using some ointments like Mupirocin which will help to heal the skin.

    In my own experience, I would suggest everyone to go for self healing process by cutting your nails regularly and using the ointment. Either you have to go through hell like pain everyday or overtime you will see your toe nail completely healed.

To become an IAS, IPS, or IFS, we need to clear India’s toughest exam, the UPSC CS exam.

Every year thousands of candidates apply for the Civil Services examinations conducted by the Union Public Service Commission (UPSC).UPSC conducts a civil service examination:

  • Indian Administrative Service

To become an Indian Administrative Service (IAS) officer, one must meet certain eligibility criteria. The minimum eligibility requirements are as follows:

  1. Nationality: The candidate must be a citizen of India. For candidates from Nepal, Bhutan, or Tibetan refugees who came to India before January 1, 1962, with the intention of permanently settling in India, or individuals of Indian origin who have migrated from countries such as Pakistan, Burma, SriLanka, East African countries of Kenya, Uganda, the United Republic of Tanzania, Zambia, Malawi, Zaire, Ethiopia, and Vietnam with the intention of permanently settling in India, additional conditions may apply.
  1.  Age Limit: The candidate must be between 21 and 32 years of age as of August 1 of the exam year. There are certain age relaxations for candidates from reserved categories, ex-servicemen, and other eligible groups as per the government norms.
  1.  Educational Qualification: The candidate must have at least a bachelor's degree from a recognized university. There are no specific restrictions on the type of bachelor's degree, so candidates from various academic backgrounds are eligible to apply.

  • If you are not interested in MBBS and aspire to become an IAS, IPS, or IFS officer. You could simply select a normal group in your school and a History, Geography, or Political Science degree in your UG program, which makes more sense and make your Path easier to clear Civil services exams.
  • For a very long time, parents and teachers are forcing the school students and pressuring them to get the MBBS or Engineer Merit seat.
  • If the student is interested in Engineering and wants to go to an IT company, that’s fine but if the student has no idea what to do next, should take a break and think about it before joining any course.
  • If you have the plan to become an IAS/IPS/IFS officer and if you are so passionate about it, then don’t select MBBS and Engineering related groups in 12th Std as well.
  • It is a better way and you can save much more money off your parents and use that money to join UPSC related coaching center.
  • Think multiple times before Joining college and make sure what you want to be in your life.
  • That way you will be able to save a lot more money for your family and may invest it somewhere else which may take you to your dream Job.

The above-mentioned information will also apply to both IPS and IFS. There are other Jobs under the UPSC which will be published in our upcoming Post. We will also see more about the duties, Perks, and lifestyle of the Jobs.

Here's a description of depression and some strategies to overcome it:

  2. Talk About It: Open up to a trusted friend or family member about your feelings. Talking about your emotions can provide relief and support.
  3. Engage in Therapy: Psychotherapy, such as cognitive-behavioral therapy (CBT) or interpersonal therapy (IPT), can be effective in treating depression by helping individuals understand and manage their thoughts and emotions.
  4. Medication: In some cases, antidepressant medications may be prescribed by a healthcare provider. These medications can help correct chemical imbalances in the brain.

  6. Set Realistic Goals: Break down tasks into smaller, achievable goals to reduce feelings of overwhelm.

Overcoming depression is a gradual process, and what works for one person may not work for another. It's crucial to seek professional help and tailor your treatment plan to your unique needs. Remember that you don't have to face depression alone, and there is hope for recovery with the right support and resources.

Narendra Modi: The Journey and Lifestyle of India's Dynamic Leader

Narendra Modi, the 14th and current Prime Minister of India, is a figure whose life and career have been marked by determination, resilience, and a visionary approach to governance. Born on September 17, 1950, in Vadnagar, a small town in Gujarat, Modi's rise from a humble background to the highest office in the country is a testament to his relentless pursuit of excellence and dedication to public service.

Early Life and Struggles

Narendra Damodardas Modi was the third of six children born to Damodardas Mulchand Modi and Heeraben Modi. His family belonged to the Ghanchi-Teli (oil-pressing) community, classified as a Other Backward Class (OBC) in India. Modi's early years were marked by modesty and hard work. As a child, he helped his father sell tea at the local railway station, an experience that he often credits with instilling in him the values of perseverance and empathy.

Modi's education was unconventional. He completed his schooling in Vadnagar and, showing an early interest in politics and social service, joined the Rashtriya Swayamsevak Sangh (RSS), a Hindu nationalist organization, at the age of eight. His involvement with the RSS played a significant role in shaping his ideological beliefs and leadership style.

Political Rise

Modi's political career began in earnest when he joined the Bharatiya Janata Party (BJP) in 1987. His organizational skills and ability to connect with people quickly earned him prominence within the party. In 2001, Modi was appointed as the Chief Minister of Gujarat, a position he held until 2014. His tenure as Chief Minister was marked by significant economic growth and development, although it was also marred by controversy, particularly the 2002 Gujarat riots, which remain a contentious aspect of his legacy.

Prime Ministership and National Impact

In 2014, Modi led the BJP to a historic victory in the general elections, becoming the Prime Minister of India. His tenure has been characterized by ambitious initiatives aimed at transforming India’s economic and social landscape. Programs such as "Make in India," "Digital India," and "Swachh Bharat Abhiyan" (Clean India Mission) reflect his focus on modernizing the country and improving the quality of life for its citizens.

Modi's foreign policy has also been notable for its proactive approach, enhancing India’s global standing and forging stronger ties with countries around the world. His leadership style, characterized by decisive action and clear communication, has garnered both admiration and criticism, making him one of the most polarizing figures in Indian politics.

Lifestyle and Personal Interests

Despite his demanding schedule, Narendra Modi maintains a disciplined lifestyle that emphasizes simplicity and self-care. Known for his early rising habit, Modi starts his day with yoga and meditation, practices he credits with maintaining his physical and mental well-being. His frugal diet typically includes traditional Indian foods, reflecting his roots and personal discipline.

Modi is also a voracious reader and an avid writer. His books, which include poetry and reflections on leadership, offer insights into his philosophical and cultural views. He is fluent in several languages, including Gujarati, Hindi, and English, which aids in his effective communication both domestically and internationally.

Personal Life

Modi's personal life has been a subject of public curiosity, particularly regarding his marital status. In his youth, he was married to Jashodaben Narendrabhai Modi, a union arranged by their families. However, Modi left home shortly after their marriage to pursue a life dedicated to social service and politics, and they have lived separately ever since. He officially acknowledged his marriage in 2014 during his election campaign, addressing a long-standing question about his personal life.

Vision for India

Narendra Modi’s vision for India is deeply influenced by his experiences and ideological leanings. He envisions a country that is self-reliant, technologically advanced, and rooted in its cultural heritage. His policies and initiatives reflect a blend of traditional values and modern aspirations, aiming to position India as a leading global power.

Conclusion

Narendra Modi's life story is one of remarkable ascent, marked by hard work, strategic thinking, and an unwavering commitment to his goals. From a tea seller in a small town to the Prime Minister of the world’s largest democracy, Modi’s journey is a source of inspiration for many. His lifestyle, characterized by simplicity, discipline, and a deep connection to his roots, provides a window into the personal habits that support his public persona. As he continues to shape India’s future, Modi's legacy will undoubtedly be a subject of study and debate for generations to come.

Recent Exit Polls and Predictions

Exit polls are an important aspect of elections in India, offering a snapshot of public opinion immediately after voters have cast their ballots. These polls are conducted by various agencies and news organizations, providing predictions about the potential outcomes of the election before the official results are announced. However, it's important to note that while exit polls can indicate trends, they are not always accurate and should be interpreted with caution.

Recent Exit Polls and Predictions

In the context of the 2024 Indian general elections, exit polls have been eagerly anticipated by both the public and political analysts. Various polling agencies have conducted exit polls to gauge voter sentiment across the country. Here are some general trends and insights based on the latest exit polls:

  1. BJP's Strong Position: Many exit polls indicate that the Bharatiya Janata Party (BJP), led by Prime Minister Narendra Modi, is likely to retain a significant share of the vote. Modi's popularity and the party's extensive campaign efforts seem to resonate with a large portion of the electorate. Issues like national security, economic reforms, and social welfare schemes are key factors influencing voters.
  2. Opposition Performance: The Indian National Congress (INC) and other regional parties are also expected to perform well in various states. Exit polls suggest that alliances and coalitions among opposition parties might challenge the BJP in certain regions. Key states like Uttar Pradesh, Maharashtra, and West Bengal are seen as crucial battlegrounds.
  3. Regional Variations: Exit polls highlight significant regional variations in voting patterns. While the BJP is predicted to do well in its traditional strongholds in the Hindi-speaking belt, southern and eastern states may see stronger performances from regional parties and the Congress. States like Tamil Nadu, Kerala, and West Bengal are particularly interesting due to their complex political dynamics.
  4. Youth and First-Time Voters: The role of young and first-time voters is also emphasized in exit polls. Their preferences are seen as a crucial factor in determining the overall outcome. Issues such as employment opportunities, education, and digital infrastructure are important to this demographic.
  5. Impact of Key Issues: Key issues like inflation, unemployment, farmer protests, and handling of the COVID-19 pandemic are influencing voter choices. Exit polls often reflect how these issues have affected public opinion and voting behavior.

Methodology and Reliability

Exit polls in India use a combination of face-to-face interviews and statistical sampling methods to predict election outcomes. Polling agencies deploy field teams across constituencies to collect data from voters as they leave polling stations. This data is then analyzed to project seat counts and vote shares for various parties.

Despite their popularity, exit polls have limitations. Sampling errors, respondent bias, and the dynamic nature of voter behavior can lead to inaccuracies. Historical instances have shown that exit polls can sometimes significantly differ from actual election results.

Conclusion

The exit poll results for the 2024 Indian general elections provide a glimpse into the potential electoral outcome, with indications of a strong performance by the BJP and notable efforts by the opposition. However, the true picture will only emerge with the official counting of votes. As always, exit polls serve as a preliminary measure of public sentiment and should be viewed as one of many tools for understanding the complex landscape of Indian elections.
