            <content:encoded><![CDATA[&lt;p&gt;There's a lot of talk about women making it big in the corporate world, but new government data tells a different story. Out of India's top 500 companies, just nine have women as Chief Executive Officers (CEOs). Only 25 women hold the position of Managing Director. These figures were revealed by the Union Ministry of Corporate Affairs in a reply to a question in the Lok Sabha.&lt;/p&gt;&lt;p&gt;In total, these top companies have 860 women as board members or directors. This includes 738 Directors, 67 Whole-time Directors, 25 Managing Directors, 18 Additional Directors, and 12 Nominee Directors. The government also clarified that it doesn't keep records for positions like 'Chairperson' or 'Chief Technology Officer' because the Companies Act, 2013, doesn't have a clear definition for them. The ministry added that it hasn't done any special studies on the challenges women face in reaching top corporate roles.&lt;/p&gt;&lt;p&gt;Startup Advice: Work Experience Essential Before Entrepreneurship, Says Founder!&lt;/p&gt;&lt;h2&gt;What the Law Says&lt;/h2&gt;&lt;p&gt;According to Section 149(1) of the Companies Act, 2013, and Rule 3 of the 2014 rules, some companies must have at least one woman director. This applies to all listed companies, and any unlisted public company with a paid-up capital of ₹100 crore or more, or a turnover of ₹300 crore or more. If this position becomes vacant, it must be filled within three months or by the next board meeting, whichever is later. The ministry stated that the current laws are sufficient to increase women's representation and that no new policies, targets, or benefits are being considered by the government right now.&lt;/p&gt;&lt;p&gt;Dream Jobs: Life Set! These 10 Indian Companies Are Everyone's Top Choice for Salary!&lt;/p&gt;&lt;h2&gt;Rs 71 Lakh in Fines Collected&lt;/h2&gt;&lt;p&gt;Over the last five years, the Registrar of Companies has issued 50 orders against companies for not appointing a woman director, collecting a total of ₹71,01,500 in fines. The highest number of violations (19 cases) was reported in the 2023-24 financial year. The government also stated that this number fell to 8 in 2025-26. Across the country, there are a total of 39,99,656 active company directors. Out of these, 11,60,933 are women, the Corporate Affairs Ministry informed the house.&lt;/p&gt;]]></content:encoded>

            <content:encoded><![CDATA[&lt;p&gt;A woman's emotional story about losing her job after returning from maternity leave has touched thousands of people on social media. Rather than letting the setback define her, she decided to begin a fresh chapter by building her own business. Her honest message about job insecurity and motherhood has encouraged many people facing similar struggles.&lt;/p&gt;&lt;h2&gt;&lt;strong&gt;'Layoff changed view of corporate jobs'&lt;/strong&gt;&lt;/h2&gt;&lt;p&gt;Taarini shared her experience through a video posted on Instagram. In the clip, she said she was laid off soon after completing her maternity leave. She explained that she had always believed hard work would keep her job safe. However, losing her role during an important stage of her life changed that belief completely.&lt;/p&gt;&lt;p&gt;She said the experience made her realise that job security cannot always be guaranteed in the corporate world. Instead of spending all her energy helping someone else's business grow, she decided to focus on creating something of her own.&lt;/p&gt;&lt;p&gt;&lt;strong&gt;After Losing Her Son and Battling Cancer, 56-Year-Old Bengaluru Woman Now Delivers Amazon Packages&lt;/strong&gt;&lt;/p&gt;&lt;h3&gt;&lt;strong&gt;Beginning a new journey&lt;/strong&gt;&lt;/h3&gt;&lt;p&gt;In the video's caption, Taarini introduced what she called her &quot;berozgaar and building&quot; era. She admitted that she never expected to lose her job and initially felt that everything had fallen apart.&lt;/p&gt;&lt;p&gt;She wrote that while applying for new jobs, receiving rejection emails and caring for her baby, she slowly realised this could become the beginning of a new career. Her goal is now to build an independent business through content creation and freelance work while balancing motherhood.&lt;/p&gt;&lt;p&gt;&amp;nbsp;&lt;/p&gt;&amp;nbsp;&amp;nbsp;&amp;nbsp;&amp;nbsp;See this post on Instagram&amp;nbsp;&amp;nbsp;&amp;nbsp;&amp;nbsp;&amp;nbsp;&amp;nbsp;&amp;nbsp;&amp;nbsp;&amp;nbsp;&amp;nbsp;&amp;nbsp;&lt;p&gt;A post shared by Taarini&rsquo;sdayoff (@taarinisdayoff)&lt;/p&gt;&lt;p&gt;&lt;strong&gt;Spoorthi Shetty: Housekeeping Staff's Daughter from Udupi Earns Miss Universe India Finale Spot&lt;/strong&gt;&lt;/p&gt;&lt;h2&gt;&lt;strong&gt;Social media users offer support&lt;/strong&gt;&lt;/h2&gt;&lt;p&gt;The video quickly attracted supportive messages from viewers.

            <description><![CDATA[&lt;p&gt;A 25-year-old professional rejected a Rs 1 crore job offer to avoid a toxic workplace. The decision has sparked debate about money versus mental health.&lt;/p&gt;]]></description>

            <content:encoded><![CDATA[&lt;p&gt;A 25-year-old professional turned down a Rs 1 crore job offer because he did not want to work in a toxic workplace. The decision has sparked a wider discussion about money, mental health, and what young workers want from their careers.&lt;/p&gt;&lt;p&gt;The story was shared by Bengaluru-based product designer Muskan Atar, who said she was impressed by how clearly the young professional had set his priorities. &quot;A friend of mine turned down a ₹1 Cr offer at the age of 25 to avoid working in a toxic workplace,&quot; she wrote on LinkedIn.&lt;/p&gt;&lt;p&gt;&quot;Having the guts to let go of short-term incentives is a huge personality upgrade&quot;&lt;/p&gt;&lt;p&gt;She said she had also rejected similar opportunities in the past but found it difficult to imagine making such a choice at 25. &quot;I have said no to similar opportunities, but I can't imagine having this clear prioritisation at the age of 25,&quot; she said.&lt;/p&gt;&lt;p&gt;Atar explained that several pressures could have made the decision harder, including family needs, expectations from others, and personal goals. &quot;Family responsibilities, peer pressure, and my own lifestyle aspirations would probably have made me take the offer. He comes from a similar background to mine, yet having the guts to let go of short-term incentives that don't align with his long-term goals is a huge personality upgrade.&quot;&lt;/p&gt;&lt;p&gt;She said the decision showed how some younger workers are looking beyond salary when choosing jobs. &quot;The next generation of the workforce knows what matters to them. Workplaces will have to learn to adapt to it.&quot;&lt;/p&gt;&lt;p&gt;The post led to mixed reactions. Some praised the decision, while others pointed out that not everyone can afford to reject such a large salary.&lt;/p&gt;&lt;p&gt;One person wrote, &quot;Glad that people are getting aware of what mental health can lead to&hellip; be it good or bad&hellip; and yes, money is important. I always say I would choose money over everything, sometimes even job roles or working hours. But toxicity and a weird work environment are a big NO&hellip;!! This realisation came after a decade of working in MNC and PSU, but at 25, it is commendable.&quot;&lt;/p&gt;&lt;p&gt;Another commented, &quot;The middle class me in me will never be able to do that even in 45. So yeah, reroute those offers to me.&quot;&lt;/p&gt;]]></content:encoded>

            <content:encoded><![CDATA[&lt;p&gt;&lt;strong&gt;Rohit Sharma, the 30-year-old founder and CEO of Chaiwala's, died by suicide at his Dausa home. Sharma began his entrepreneurial journey at 17 and went on to establish 7 tea outlets. Months ago, he shut the business and turned towards spirituality.&lt;/strong&gt;&lt;/p&gt;&lt;img&gt;&lt;p&gt;Rohit Sharma, the 30-year-old founder and CEO of tea brand Chaiwala's, died by suicide at his home in Dausa, Rajasthan, on Saturday, police said. The news has brought attention to the young entrepreneur's unusual journey from starting a tea business as a teenager to building a chain of outlets and later turning towards spirituality.&lt;/p&gt;&lt;p&gt;Sharma, who lived in Saket Colony, was found at his home on Saturday afternoon. His family took him to the district hospital, where doctors declared him dead. Police said the reason behind his death has not yet been established.&lt;/p&gt;&lt;img&gt;&lt;p&gt;Sharma was an entrepreneur, speaker and social worker from Dausa. His LinkedIn profile described him as the founder and CEO of Chaiwalas Group, a keynote speaker, social media influencer and social worker.&lt;/p&gt;&lt;p&gt;He started his entrepreneurial journey at the age of 17 while he was still studying nursing, according to his profile.&lt;/p&gt;&lt;p&gt;His early business experience was not easy. He reportedly faced legal problems in a family business, which resulted in a major financial loss. Instead of giving up on business, he moved to Jaipur and started Chaiwala's.&lt;/p&gt;&amp;nbsp;&amp;nbsp;&amp;nbsp;&amp;nbsp;View this post on Instagram&amp;nbsp;&amp;nbsp;&amp;nbsp;&amp;nbsp;&amp;nbsp;&amp;nbsp;&amp;nbsp;&amp;nbsp;&amp;nbsp;&amp;nbsp;&amp;nbsp;&lt;p&gt;A post shared by Team Rohit Shivoham (@teamrohitshivoham)&lt;/p&gt;&lt;p&gt;&lt;/p&gt;&amp;nbsp;&amp;nbsp;&amp;nbsp;&amp;nbsp;View this post on Instagram&amp;nbsp;&amp;nbsp;&amp;nbsp;&amp;nbsp;&amp;nbsp;&amp;nbsp;&amp;nbsp;&amp;nbsp;&amp;nbsp;&amp;nbsp;&amp;nbsp;&lt;p&gt;A post shared by Team Rohit Shivoham (@teamrohitshivoham)&lt;/p&gt;&lt;p&gt;&lt;/p&gt;&amp;nbsp;&amp;nbsp;&amp;nbsp;&amp;nbsp;View this post on Instagram&amp;nbsp;&amp;nbsp;&amp;nbsp;&amp;nbsp;&amp;nbsp;&amp;nbsp;&amp;nbsp;&amp;nbsp;&amp;nbsp;&amp;nbsp;&amp;nbsp;&lt;p&gt;A post shared by Team Rohit Shivoham (@teamrohitshivoham)&lt;/p&gt;&lt;p&gt;The tea venture gradually grew and became his best-known business.&lt;/p&gt;&lt;img&gt;&lt;p&gt;Sharma opened his first Chaiwala's tea cafe at Shipra Path in Mansarovar, Jaipur. He later expanded the business, opening more outlets in Rajasthan and other parts of the country.&lt;/p&gt;&lt;p&gt;Over the years, he established seven Chaiwala's outlets across different cities, according to details shared on his professional profile.&lt;/p&gt;&lt;p&gt;His story also attracted attention because of how young he was when he entered the business world. Starting a company at 17, he went on to build a recognisable tea brand while also taking part in speaking events and social work.&lt;/p&gt;&amp;nbsp;&amp;nbsp;&amp;nbsp;&amp;nbsp;View this post on Instagram&amp;nbsp;&amp;nbsp;&amp;nbsp;&amp;nbsp;&amp;nbsp;&amp;nbsp;&amp;nbsp;&amp;nbsp;&amp;nbsp;&amp;nbsp;&amp;nbsp;&lt;p&gt;A post shared by Team Rohit Shivoham (@teamrohitshivoham)&lt;/p&gt;&lt;p&gt;&lt;/p&gt;&lt;p&gt;He described himself as an entrepreneur and &ldquo;Josh Speaker&rdquo; on LinkedIn and said he had received 21 awards during his career.&lt;/p&gt;&lt;img&gt;&lt;p&gt;Sharma's work in the food and beverage sector earned him several awards and public recognition.&lt;/p&gt;&lt;p&gt;His profile said he was a national award winner and that he had received an award for &ldquo;Innovative Startup of the Year&rdquo; from then Rajasthan Governor Kalraj Mishra.&lt;/p&gt;&lt;p&gt;He was also featured in newspapers and on social media for his entrepreneurial journey.&lt;/p&gt;&lt;p&gt;Beyond his business, Sharma was involved in social service activities in Dausa, where he grew up.&lt;/p&gt;&lt;img&gt;&lt;p&gt;Around six months before his death, Sharma reportedly closed all the Chaiwalas outlets.&lt;/p&gt;&lt;p&gt;The closure marked a major change in his life. After stepping away from the tea business, he reportedly began spending more time on spirituality and visiting religious places.&lt;/p&gt;&lt;p&gt;The shift was notable because much of Sharma's public identity had been linked to entrepreneurship, business growth and motivational speaking.&lt;/p&gt;&amp;nbsp;&amp;nbsp;&amp;nbsp;&amp;nbsp;View this post on Instagram&amp;nbsp;&amp;nbsp;&amp;nbsp;&amp;nbsp;&amp;nbsp;&amp;nbsp;&amp;nbsp;&amp;nbsp;&amp;nbsp;&amp;nbsp;&amp;nbsp;&lt;p&gt;A post shared by Rohit Sharma (Shivoham) (@rohitshivoham)&lt;/p&gt;&lt;p&gt;&lt;/p&gt;&lt;p&gt;His social media presence also reflected an interest in ideas around love, peace and letting go.&lt;/p&gt;&lt;img&gt;&lt;p&gt;Sharma also wrote books focused on personal growth and spirituality.&lt;/p&gt;&lt;p&gt;Two titles associated with him were &ldquo;Tatsukhe Sukhitvam - The Art Of Loving&rdquo; and &ldquo;Virah - The Art Of Letting Go&rdquo;.&lt;/p&gt;&amp;nbsp;&amp;nbsp;&amp;nbsp;&amp;nbsp;View this post on Instagram&amp;nbsp;&amp;nbsp;&amp;nbsp;&amp;nbsp;&amp;nbsp;&amp;nbsp;&amp;nbsp;&amp;nbsp;&amp;nbsp;&amp;nbsp;&amp;nbsp;&lt;p&gt;A post shared by Rohit Sharma (Shivoham) (@rohitshivoham)&lt;/p&gt;&lt;p&gt;&lt;/p&gt;&amp;nbsp;&amp;nbsp;&amp;nbsp;&amp;nbsp;View this post on Instagram&amp;nbsp;&amp;nbsp;&amp;nbsp;&amp;nbsp;&amp;nbsp;&amp;nbsp;&amp;nbsp;&amp;nbsp;&amp;nbsp;&amp;nbsp;&amp;nbsp;&lt;p&gt;A post shared by Rohit Sharma (Shivoham) (@rohitshivoham)&lt;/p&gt;&lt;p&gt;&lt;/p&gt;&lt;p&gt;In a social media post about the books, Sharma said they could fill readers' hearts with love and peace and offer a new way of looking at life.&lt;/p&gt;&lt;p&gt;The titles also reflected the change in direction he had taken after leaving the tea business.&lt;/p&gt;&lt;img&gt;&lt;p&gt;Sharma's life was not limited to Chaiwalas. He was also involved in social work and public speaking and had built a following on social media.&lt;/p&gt;&lt;p&gt;His family background was rooted in Dausa. His father, Hitendra Mohan Sharma, runs a medical store, while his wife works as a teacher at a private school.&lt;/p&gt;&lt;p&gt;Sharma is survived by his wife and their seven-year-old son.&lt;/p&gt;&lt;p&gt;For those who knew him, his death marks the loss of a young businessman who began working towards his ambitions at an unusually early age.&lt;/p&gt;&amp;nbsp;&amp;nbsp;&amp;nbsp;&amp;nbsp;View this post on Instagram&amp;nbsp;&amp;nbsp;&amp;nbsp;&amp;nbsp;&amp;nbsp;&amp;nbsp;&amp;nbsp;&amp;nbsp;&amp;nbsp;&amp;nbsp;&amp;nbsp;&lt;p&gt;A post shared by Rohit Sharma (Shivoham) (@rohitshivoham)&lt;/p&gt;&lt;p&gt;&lt;/p&gt;&lt;h2&gt;&lt;strong&gt;Police investigation underway&lt;/strong&gt;&lt;/h2&gt;&lt;p&gt;Police said Sharma's death was reported from his Dausa residence on Saturday. His body was handed over to the family after a post-mortem examination.&lt;/p&gt;&lt;p&gt;The exact circumstances surrounding his death remain under investigation, and police have not yet established a reason.&lt;/p&gt;&lt;p&gt;His journey, meanwhile, has drawn renewed attention to the life of a young entrepreneur who started a tea company at 17, expanded it to several outlets, earned recognition for his work and later moved away from business towards spirituality.&lt;/p&gt;&lt;p&gt;Police are continuing to investigate the circumstances of his death.&lt;/p&gt;&lt;p&gt;&lt;strong&gt;(With inputs from agencies)&lt;/strong&gt;&lt;/p&gt;&lt;p&gt;&lt;strong&gt;(Suicide is never a solution.

            <content:encoded><![CDATA[&lt;p&gt;&lt;strong&gt;Young inventor Levin Paulose has won praise online for creating clever devices from simple materials. His videos show homemade machines that can bring water, stir food, move curtains and operate a vacuum cleaner. Many compared him to APJ Abdul Kalam.&lt;/strong&gt;&lt;/p&gt;&lt;img&gt;&lt;p&gt;A young inventor named Levin Paulose is winning hearts online with a series of unusual creations made using simple materials that can easily be found at home.&lt;/p&gt;&lt;p&gt;Videos shared on social media show Levin building different machines and gadgets that are not only creative but also have practical uses in everyday life. His work has caught the attention of viewers who have been impressed by how he turns basic items into working devices.&lt;/p&gt;&amp;nbsp;&amp;nbsp;&amp;nbsp;&amp;nbsp;View this post on Instagram&amp;nbsp;&amp;nbsp;&amp;nbsp;&amp;nbsp;&amp;nbsp;&amp;nbsp;&amp;nbsp;&amp;nbsp;&amp;nbsp;&amp;nbsp;&amp;nbsp;&lt;p&gt;A post shared by levin paulose (@ppv931680)&lt;/p&gt;&lt;p&gt;&lt;strong&gt;Viral Video | Cargo on Delhi Metro Leaves Passengers Surprised, Internet Asks: 'Metro Hai Ya Maalgaadi?'&lt;/strong&gt;&lt;/p&gt;&lt;p&gt;From cardboard and wires to strings, nuts, bolts and small motors, Levin appears to use whatever is available to bring his ideas to life.&lt;/p&gt;&lt;img&gt;&lt;p&gt;One of the videos shows a homemade machine that can be used to bring water. Another creation works like a vacuum cleaner, while an automated curtain system opens and closes curtains with the help of a motor.&lt;/p&gt;&lt;p&gt;In another interesting creation, a small device can be seen stirring food automatically. The simple idea could make cooking a little easier by allowing the user to leave the dish while the machine does the stirring.&lt;/p&gt;&amp;nbsp;&amp;nbsp;&amp;nbsp;&amp;nbsp;View this post on Instagram&amp;nbsp;&amp;nbsp;&amp;nbsp;&amp;nbsp;&amp;nbsp;&amp;nbsp;&amp;nbsp;&amp;nbsp;&amp;nbsp;&amp;nbsp;&amp;nbsp;&lt;p&gt;A post shared by levin paulose (@ppv931680)&lt;/p&gt;&amp;nbsp;&amp;nbsp;&amp;nbsp;&amp;nbsp;View this post on Instagram&amp;nbsp;&amp;nbsp;&amp;nbsp;&amp;nbsp;&amp;nbsp;&amp;nbsp;&amp;nbsp;&amp;nbsp;&amp;nbsp;&amp;nbsp;&amp;nbsp;&lt;p&gt;A post shared by levin paulose (@ppv931680)&lt;/p&gt;&lt;p&gt;Levin's creations do not appear to be limited to household gadgets. His social media videos also feature a battery-operated roti maker, a small hand-propelled rocket launcher and a compact tool designed to switch on a fan.&lt;/p&gt;&lt;p&gt;While the inventions may look simple, they have attracted attention because of the way Levin uses basic materials to solve everyday problems.&lt;/p&gt;&lt;img&gt;&lt;p&gt;What makes Levin's videos stand out is the way he experiments with ordinary objects.&lt;/p&gt;&lt;p&gt;Instead of relying on expensive equipment or complicated machinery, he uses things such as cardboard, wires, strings, nuts, bolts and batteries. He then combines them with small motors and other basic parts to create his own working models.&lt;/p&gt;&lt;p&gt;Cobra Rescue: Cricketers Get A Shock As Huge Snake Shows Up On Thiruvananthapuram Turf (WATCH)&lt;/p&gt;&lt;p&gt;His approach has impressed many social media users, who say his creations show that a lack of expensive resources does not have to stop someone from exploring ideas and building things.&lt;/p&gt;&amp;nbsp;&amp;nbsp;&amp;nbsp;&amp;nbsp;View this post on Instagram&amp;nbsp;&amp;nbsp;&amp;nbsp;&amp;nbsp;&amp;nbsp;&amp;nbsp;&amp;nbsp;&amp;nbsp;&amp;nbsp;&amp;nbsp;&amp;nbsp;&lt;p&gt;A post shared by levin paulose (@ppv931680)&lt;/p&gt;&lt;p&gt;&lt;/p&gt;&lt;p&gt;The videos have also sparked conversations about the importance of encouraging young people who enjoy making and experimenting with machines.&lt;/p&gt;&lt;img&gt;&lt;p&gt;The response to Levin's inventions has largely been positive, with many viewers praising his creativity and encouraging him to keep working on his ideas.&lt;/p&gt;&lt;p&gt;One user called him &quot;very very talented&quot;, while another said that he was &quot;gifted&quot; and deserved a scholarship to continue his studies.&lt;/p&gt;&lt;p&gt;Another comment read, &quot;We want more talent like this,&quot; while several others simply praised his work and wished him success in the future.&lt;/p&gt;&lt;p&gt;Child Turns Mall Fountain Into Swimming Pool, Viral Video Leaves Internet In Splits (WATCH)&lt;/p&gt;&lt;p&gt;Some viewers compared Levin to former President and renowned scientist A. P. J. Abdul Kalam, who remains widely admired for inspiring young people to take an interest in science and technology.&lt;/p&gt;&lt;p&gt;One commenter wrote, &quot;New APJ Abdul Kalam sir,&quot; while another said they hoped Levin would become a great scientist one day.&lt;/p&gt;&lt;img&gt;&lt;p&gt;The praise has also extended beyond his individual creations. Many viewers believe Levin's talent could take him further if he gets the right support, education and opportunities. In a viral video, Levin is seen alongside Kerala Chief Minister V.D. Satheesan, who warmly holds his hand, appearing to show his appreciation for the young inventor and his creative work.&lt;/p&gt;&lt;p&gt;The positive reaction shows how strongly people respond to young talent that combines curiosity with practical thinking. For many viewers, the appeal of Levin's work lies not just in the gadgets themselves but in the fact that he appears to build them from simple materials that are easily available.&lt;/p&gt;&amp;nbsp;&amp;nbsp;&amp;nbsp;&amp;nbsp;View this post on Instagram&amp;nbsp;&amp;nbsp;&amp;nbsp;&amp;nbsp;&amp;nbsp;&amp;nbsp;&amp;nbsp;&amp;nbsp;&amp;nbsp;&amp;nbsp;&amp;nbsp;&lt;p&gt;A post shared by levin paulose (@ppv931680)&lt;/p&gt;&lt;p&gt;His videos have now encouraged viewers to look at everyday objects differently and see how basic parts can be used to create something useful.&lt;/p&gt;&lt;p&gt;Why Did Two Youths Ride A Motorcycle Into A Hospital Emergecy Ward? Viral Video Sparks Debate&lt;/p&gt;&lt;p&gt;As his creations continue to attract attention online, many are hoping that Levin gets the chance to develop his skills further and turn his early experiments into bigger and more advanced projects.&lt;/p&gt;&lt;p&gt;For now, his homemade machines have given social media users plenty to talk about, with many cheering on the young inventor and hoping to see what he builds next.&lt;/p&gt;]]></content:encoded>

            <content:encoded><![CDATA[&lt;p&gt;A software employee staged a protest outside Tech Mahindra's office in Medchal on Thursday, alleging that she was unfairly removed from her job after taking medical leave and later asking for time off to care for her sick daughter. The employee, identified as R Bhavana, also accused the company of putting her under pressure while she was away from work and alleged that she was not given a fair chance to explain her absence before her employment was ended, reported the Hindu.&lt;/p&gt;&lt;p&gt;Bhavana has filed a complaint with the Dundigal police, seeking action against the company. Police have received the complaint and started a preliminary inquiry into her allegations.&lt;/p&gt;&lt;p&gt;&lt;strong&gt;Viral Video | Cargo on Delhi Metro Leaves Passengers Surprised, Internet Asks: &lsquo;Metro Hai Ya Maalgaadi?&rsquo;&lt;/strong&gt;&lt;/p&gt;&lt;h2&gt;&lt;strong&gt;Employee alleges termination after medical leave&lt;/strong&gt;&lt;/h2&gt;&lt;p&gt;According to Bhavana, she joined the company around four months ago. She said that she fell ill during her training period and fainted while at work. She was later taken to hospital for treatment.&lt;/p&gt;&lt;p&gt;She claimed that she had to take 13 days of medical leave in June as she continued to recover from her health problems. However, Bhavana alleged that the company sent her a warning letter during this period and repeatedly contacted her through emails asking her to return to work.&lt;/p&gt;&lt;p&gt;She said her husband also informed the management about her health condition. However, she alleged that the company did not respond in a supportive manner.&lt;/p&gt;&lt;p&gt;Bhavana further claimed that she was under treatment for nearly two weeks and was allegedly warned that her job could be at risk if she did not return to work.&lt;/p&gt;&lt;p&gt;&lt;strong&gt;'Show Some Civic Sense': Locals Slam Tourist After Alleged Urination in Nainital Lake (WATCH)&lt;/strong&gt;&lt;/p&gt;&lt;h3&gt;&lt;strong&gt;She sought leave after daughter fell ill&lt;/strong&gt;&lt;/h3&gt;&lt;p&gt;After returning to work, Bhavana said she later asked for three days of leave after her 11-year-old daughter fell ill. She alleged that instead of approving her request, the management questioned the length of her absence. She claimed that she later received repeated emails asking her to report to work by July 21.&lt;/p&gt;&lt;p&gt;Bhavana alleged that her employment was subsequently terminated without giving her any additional time or a proper opportunity to explain her situation.&lt;/p&gt;&lt;p&gt;She accused the company of deliberately removing her from service and said she decided to protest outside the office to demand justice and her reinstatement.&lt;/p&gt;&lt;h2&gt;&lt;strong&gt;Woman raises questions over workplace conditions&lt;/strong&gt;&lt;/h2&gt;&lt;p&gt;In a video circulated on social media, Bhavana also raised concerns about the working conditions at the company. She alleged that employees were expected to inform their managers whenever they left their desks, including when they needed to use the washroom. She described the workplace as unhealthy and said she had never faced similar conditions at any other company where she had worked.&lt;/p&gt;&lt;p&gt;A software employee staged a protest outside Tech Mahindra&rsquo;s office in Medchal on Thursday, alleging that she was terminated from her job without any valid reason after availing leave on medical and family grounds.She has lodged a complaint with the police seeking action&hellip; https://t.co/Nf2emsl3mQ pic.twitter.com/Emi08Kdvxc&lt;/p&gt;&lt;p&gt;&mdash; Hate Detector  (@HateDetectors) July 24, 2026&lt;/p&gt;&lt;p&gt;&lt;strong&gt;Toll Hike: Bengaluru-Mysuru Expressway Trips Get Costlier Again!

Officials are also seeking the company's response to understand what led to the termination and whether there were any workplace harassment or procedural issues involved.&lt;/p&gt;&lt;p&gt;The allegations made by Bhavana have not been independently verified.&lt;/p&gt;&lt;p&gt;There was no immediate response from Tech Mahindra to the allegations at the time of publication. The company's version of the matter was not available.&lt;/p&gt;]]></content:encoded>

            <content:encoded><![CDATA[Do you know which is the most expensive school in the world? Can you guess how much parents have to shell out for the fees? And what makes this school so ridiculously costly? Let's find out.&lt;img&gt;Parents today are struggling to pay school fees, which run into lakhs even for nursery. But can you imagine a school where the fee is over a crore? Yes, such a place exists! Let's take a look at the world's most expensive school, where it is, and why its fees are sky-high.&lt;img&gt;The world's most expensive school is in Switzerland. It's a boarding school called Institut Le Rosey, founded way back in 1880. The annual fee here is a whopping ₹1.3 crore to ₹1.5 crore. Only children from royal families, billionaires, and top business tycoons study here. This fee covers everything&mdash;tuition, hostel, food, sports, and other special training.&lt;img&gt;This school doesn't have large classes of 30-40 students like we see here. Teachers give personal attention to every student, focusing on all subjects. They also give equal importance to music and sports. The school has two campuses&mdash;one for summer and another for winter. Getting admission isn't easy; it's not just about money. Students must pass a talent test. The world's best teachers work here, and the facilities are top-notch, which explains the massive fee.]]></content:encoded>

            <content:encoded><![CDATA[&lt;p&gt;Imagine the excitement of starting a new job. Now, imagine that excitement lasting for just two hours. That's exactly what happened to one young man, who was fired just two hours after he joined. He shared his frustrating experience on Reddit with the title, 'My first shift was only two hours before they took back the job offer'.&lt;/p&gt;&lt;p&gt;The man had landed a job at a company that sells food products. He reached on time for his first day, but things quickly went downhill. The senior employee who was supposed to train him seemed completely surprised to see him there. 'Today was my first day at a new job selling food products in a market. I arrived early, but the person who was supposed to train me seemed surprised to see me,' the man wrote.&lt;/p&gt;&lt;p&gt;Google: Rejected 12 Times, Techie&rsquo;s Determination Wins Internet! Read On&lt;/p&gt;&lt;p&gt;Despite the chilly reception, he started his work. However, two hours later, his trainer stepped out to take a call from the boss. 'Two hours after I got there, the trainer got a call from the boss. The boss said my joining date was wrong, and since I didn't join on the date they had in mind, they gave the job to someone else,' the employee explained. The funny thing is, the man had shown up on the exact date he was told to.&lt;/p&gt;&lt;p&gt;&amp;nbsp;&lt;/p&gt;&lt;p&gt;Read the full Reddit post hereby u/jellyfrogg in recruitinghell&lt;/p&gt;&lt;p&gt;&amp;nbsp;&lt;/p&gt;&lt;p&gt;He clarified that the manager himself had written the joining date on his resume and had even confirmed it later. Still, he was sent home for no fault of his own. He added that he felt completely humiliated and disappointed, and now has to start his job search all over again.&lt;/p&gt;&lt;p&gt;&lt;strong&gt;Wipro Shocker: One HR Call Ends 5.5-Year Journey, Delhi Woman Reveals All!&lt;/strong&gt;&lt;/p&gt;&lt;p&gt;The post received a lot of comments from supportive users. Many wrote things like, 'You're better off away from a place like that,' 'Hope you find another job soon,' and 'Did they at least pay you for the hours you worked?'&lt;/p&gt;]]></content:encoded>

            <content:encoded><![CDATA[&lt;p&gt;For many students, clearing a medical entrance exam is a major achievement. For Suraj Suman from Kapren town in Rajasthan's Bundi district, it is much more than that. His success in NEET-UG 2026 is the result of years of hard work, financial struggles and a dream he refused to give up. Suraj scored 583 marks in NEET-UG 2026, securing a 99.1593559 percentile. He also achieved an OBC category rank of 7,800 and an overall rank of 16,569. His result has opened the door for him to pursue his dream of studying medicine at a government medical college.&lt;/p&gt;&amp;nbsp;&amp;nbsp;&amp;nbsp;&amp;nbsp;View this post on Instagram&amp;nbsp;&amp;nbsp;&amp;nbsp;&amp;nbsp;&amp;nbsp;&amp;nbsp;&amp;nbsp;&amp;nbsp;&amp;nbsp;&amp;nbsp;&amp;nbsp;&lt;p&gt;A post shared by VIDEO NATION (@videonation.official)&lt;/p&gt;&lt;p&gt;&amp;nbsp;&lt;/p&gt;&lt;p&gt;&lt;strong&gt;'He Was Set To Marry Next April': Kerala Family Awaits Body of Sailor Killed in Ukraine ship attack&lt;/strong&gt;&lt;/p&gt;&lt;p&gt;The journey is especially remarkable because Suraj comes from a financially weak family. While preparing for his studies, he also worked as a painter in villages and small towns, helping his mother earn enough to run their home.&lt;/p&gt;&lt;h2&gt;&lt;strong&gt;Painting work helped support his family&lt;/strong&gt;&lt;/h2&gt;&lt;p&gt;Suraj's mother, Gheesi Bai, worked as a farm labourer to support the family. His younger sister, Garima, also worked in the fields with their mother.&lt;/p&gt;&lt;p&gt;The family's financial difficulties had a serious impact on Garima's education. With limited opportunities to continue studying in the village and little money available, she had to leave school after Class 8. She later joined her mother in farm work.&lt;/p&gt;&amp;nbsp;&amp;nbsp;&amp;nbsp;&amp;nbsp;View this post on Instagram&amp;nbsp;&amp;nbsp;&amp;nbsp;&amp;nbsp;&amp;nbsp;&amp;nbsp;&amp;nbsp;&amp;nbsp;&amp;nbsp;&amp;nbsp;&amp;nbsp;&lt;p&gt;A post shared by @instaviral.inm&lt;/p&gt;&lt;p&gt;Suraj now wants to change that. One of his biggest goals after becoming a doctor is to help his sister return to school and complete the education she had to leave behind.&lt;/p&gt;&lt;p&gt;For Suraj, his NEET success is therefore not only about building his own future. It is also about giving his family opportunities they could not afford earlier.&lt;/p&gt;&lt;p&gt;&lt;strong&gt;New Aadhaar App Crosses 4 Crore Downloads: Here's How To Update Mobile Number, Address And Use All Features&lt;/strong&gt;&lt;/p&gt;&lt;h2&gt;&lt;strong&gt;Doctor's dream stayed alive&lt;/strong&gt;&lt;/h2&gt;&lt;p&gt;Suraj scored 87% in Class 10 and 85% in Class 12. Biology was his favourite subject, and he had wanted to become a doctor since childhood.&lt;/p&gt;&lt;p&gt;However, preparing for NEET was not easy for a family that struggled to meet its basic needs. The cost of coaching, accommodation and food in a city like Kota was beyond what his family could afford.&lt;/p&gt;&lt;p&gt;His situation changed when he learnt about the 'Shiksha Sambal' programme run by Allen Career Institute and the L.N. Maheshwari Parmarth Nyas.&lt;/p&gt;&lt;p&gt;Suraj appeared for the selection test and was chosen for the programme. He received free NEET coaching along with free food and accommodation in Kota.&lt;/p&gt;&lt;h3&gt;&lt;strong&gt;'Education Sambal changed my life'&lt;/strong&gt;&lt;/h3&gt;&lt;p&gt;The support allowed Suraj to focus fully on his studies without worrying about the cost of coaching or daily living.&lt;/p&gt;&lt;p&gt;Suraj says the 'Shiksha Sambal' programme gave him the support he needed to move towards his goal. Without the opportunity, he believes he may never have been able to come to Kota and prepare for the medical entrance exam with access to such facilities.&lt;/p&gt;&lt;p&gt;The year became a major turning point in his life. Along with his studies, he received accommodation, meals and other necessary support, allowing him to concentrate on his preparation.&lt;/p&gt;&lt;p&gt;His NEET result is now the reward for that effort.&lt;/p&gt;&lt;p&gt;&lt;strong&gt;Employee Confronts Boss Over 'No Reason' Termination; Viral Video Fuels Toxic Work Culture Debate (WATCH)&lt;/strong&gt;&lt;/p&gt;&lt;h2&gt;&lt;strong&gt;From paintbrush to stethoscope&lt;/strong&gt;&lt;/h2&gt;&lt;p&gt;Suraj's story is one of determination in the face of hardship. While many students preparing for competitive exams can focus entirely on their studies, he had to balance education with work and family responsibilities.&lt;/p&gt;&lt;p&gt;The hands that once helped paint houses to support his mother may soon hold a stethoscope and treat patients.&lt;/p&gt;&lt;p&gt;For Suraj, however, becoming a doctor is only one part of the dream. He also wants to ensure that his sister gets the chance to complete the education she had to leave behind.&lt;/p&gt;&lt;p&gt;His journey from painting homes in Rajasthan to securing a place on the path to becoming a doctor shows how education, support and determination can change the course of a young person's life.&lt;/p&gt;&lt;p&gt;&lt;strong&gt;Cat Faces Striking Cobra, Dodges Every Attack In Viral Video, Internet Can't Believe It (WATCH)&lt;/strong&gt;&lt;/p&gt;]]></content:encoded>

            <content:encoded><![CDATA[&lt;p&gt;Work pressure can sometimes go beyond office hours, but one Madhya Pradesh man living in Australia says the demands of his former job became so difficult that he eventually decided to quit. Ankur Sachdeva, who previously worked at one of Australia&rsquo;s Big Four banks, has spoken in a video about his experience with his former manager that has now gone viral on social media.&lt;/p&gt;View this post on Instagram&lt;p&gt;A post shared by Priyankur (@priyankur_diaries)&lt;/p&gt;&lt;p&gt;Birthday Party Fight Turns Violent, Hotel Owners Assaulted In Maharashtra's Chandrapur; Video Surfaces&lt;/p&gt;&lt;p&gt;Sachdeva alleged that his Indian manager regularly contacted him after working hours, often calling tasks 'urgent' and expecting them to be completed on the same day.&lt;/p&gt;&lt;h2&gt;&lt;strong&gt;'Manager used to make my life difficult'&lt;/strong&gt;&lt;/h2&gt;&lt;p&gt;Recalling his time at the bank, Sachdeva said his manager would often call him after office hours with work that needed to be completed immediately.&lt;/p&gt;&lt;p&gt;&ldquo;My manager used to make my life difficult,&rdquo; he told Hindustan Times.&lt;/p&gt;&lt;p&gt;According to Sachdeva, his manager would tell him that a task was urgent and that he needed to finish it that day. He also alleged that he was sometimes made to do work that belonged to his manager.&lt;/p&gt;&lt;p&gt;He said almost everything was treated as urgent, leaving him under constant pressure to finish tasks within hours.&lt;/p&gt;&lt;p&gt;'Pahadi Kids Are Built Different': Little Girl Carrying 3 Water Cans Goes Viral, Video Sparks Debate&lt;/p&gt;&lt;h3&gt;&lt;strong&gt;Little time left for family&lt;/strong&gt;&lt;/h3&gt;&lt;p&gt;For Sachdeva, the biggest problem was not simply the workload. He said the long hours began affecting his personal life. He explained that he had reached a point where he could barely spend time with his family. He particularly wanted to be present for his newborn child but found it increasingly difficult because of work demands.&lt;/p&gt;&lt;p&gt;The situation eventually pushed him to look for another job, although he said finding one was not easy because the job market was not strong at the time.&lt;/p&gt;&lt;p&gt;After waiting for an opportunity, Sachdeva finally received an interview call and was selected for a new role.&lt;/p&gt;&lt;p&gt;He described the new position as a good opportunity and said he now works for the Australian government.&lt;/p&gt;&lt;p&gt;Family Buys New Home, Then Discovers Hidden Walking Trails In Woods; Internet Loves The Secret Garden&lt;/p&gt;&lt;h2&gt;&lt;strong&gt;Viral story sparks mixed reactions&lt;/strong&gt;&lt;/h2&gt;&lt;p&gt;His story has prompted a strong response online, with many people saying they could relate to his experience. Some users praised Sachdeva for leaving an unhealthy work environment and encouraged him to create a better workplace for his own team in the future.&lt;/p&gt;&lt;p&gt;Others said similar experiences were not limited to Australia and claimed they had faced comparable workplace pressure in countries including the UK and India.&lt;/p&gt;&lt;p&gt;One commenter said employees should understand the difference between putting someone under reasonable pressure and exploiting them.&lt;/p&gt;&lt;p&gt;At the same time, some users joked that Sachdeva could face the same situation from his own employees now that he has moved into a new role.&lt;/p&gt;&lt;p&gt;Burqa-Clad Gang Steals Gold Necklace From Telangana Jewellery Shop, Video Goes Viral&lt;/p&gt;&lt;h2&gt;&lt;strong&gt;'Break the chain'&lt;/strong&gt;&lt;/h2&gt;&lt;p&gt;Several comments focused on what Sachdeva could do differently if he becomes a manager himself. One user told him to make sure he did not treat other employees in the same way and urged him to 'break the chain'.&lt;/p&gt;&lt;p&gt;Another wished him well and hoped he would become a manager whom people would be happy to work with.&lt;/p&gt;&lt;p&gt;While the reactions varied, many viewers agreed on one point: constant after-hours work can affect more than an employee&rsquo;s professional life.&lt;/p&gt;&lt;p&gt;Thai Weightlifter's 124kg Lift Goes Viral After Sassy Celebration Steals Show (WATCH)&lt;/p&gt;]]></content:encoded>

            <content:encoded><![CDATA[&lt;p&gt;&lt;strong&gt;A powerful Independence Day speech does not have to be long. Keep it short, creative and easy to understand. Add interesting facts and trivia to make your speech engaging, memorable and enjoyable for everyone. Read on for topics, ideas and tips.&lt;/strong&gt;&lt;/p&gt;&lt;img&gt;&lt;p&gt;Writing an Independence Day speech can feel difficult when you want to sound patriotic without repeating the same lines about freedom fighters, the Tricolour and India&rsquo;s independence. For schoolchildren, the best speech is usually simple, personal and meaningful. Teachers can also use these ideas to help students prepare speeches for school assemblies, competitions and 15th August celebrations.&lt;/p&gt;&lt;p&gt;India celebrates Independence Day on 15 August every year, marking the country&rsquo;s independence from British rule in 1947. This year, India will mark its 80th Independence Day celebration as the country completes 79 years since independence.&lt;/p&gt;&lt;img&gt;&lt;p&gt;The first few lines matter. Instead of beginning with a long list of historical facts, students can open with a question, a thought or a short reference to freedom. For example:&lt;/p&gt;&lt;p&gt;&quot;What does freedom mean to you? Is it simply the right to live independently, or is it also the responsibility to make our country better?&quot;&lt;/p&gt;&lt;p&gt;&lt;strong&gt;Another option is to begin with a simple greeting:&lt;/strong&gt;&lt;/p&gt;&lt;p&gt;&quot;Respected Principal, teachers and my dear friends, today we have gathered to celebrate a day that changed the history of India i.e.15 August.&quot;&lt;/p&gt;&lt;p&gt;Keep the opening short and confident.&lt;/p&gt;&lt;img&gt;&lt;p&gt;Students can choose a topic according to their age and speaking ability. Some useful Independence Day speech topics are:&lt;/p&gt;&lt;ul&gt; &lt;li&gt;The importance of Independence Day&lt;/li&gt; &lt;li&gt;The sacrifices of India&rsquo;s freedom fighters&lt;/li&gt; &lt;li&gt;What freedom means to young Indians&lt;/li&gt; &lt;li&gt;India&rsquo;s journey from 1947 to today&lt;/li&gt; &lt;li&gt;The role of students in nation-building&lt;/li&gt; &lt;li&gt;Unity in diversity&lt;/li&gt; &lt;li&gt;My vision for India&lt;/li&gt; &lt;li&gt;Freedom and responsibility&lt;/li&gt; &lt;li&gt;How young people can serve the nation&lt;/li&gt;&lt;/ul&gt;&lt;p&gt;For younger children, &ldquo;Why We Celebrate Independence Day&rdquo; is easier. Older students can explore topics such as democracy, equality, responsible citizenship and India&rsquo;s future.&lt;/p&gt;&lt;img&gt;&lt;p&gt;Leave you audience with some thoughts. A good speech should teach the audience something. India became independent on 15 August 1947, following a long freedom struggle involving leaders, movements and ordinary citizens across the country - everyone knows this, but tell your audience with a trivia or historical fact that may leave a lasting impact.&lt;/p&gt;&lt;p&gt;Students can also mention Jawaharlal Nehru's famous 'Tryst with Destiny' speech, delivered during the midnight session of the Constituent Assembly on 14-15 August 1947.&lt;/p&gt;&lt;p&gt;However, do not overload the speech with dates and names. Two or three accurate facts are more than enough.&lt;/p&gt;&lt;img&gt;&lt;p&gt;The conclusion should connect freedom with responsibility. Students can talk about respecting others, protecting public spaces, studying sincerely, helping people and contributing positively to society.&lt;/p&gt;&lt;p&gt;A strong ending could be:&lt;/p&gt;&lt;p&gt;&lt;strong&gt;&quot;Our freedom was won by the generations before us. Our responsibility is to protect it and build an India that future generations can be proud of. Jai Hind!&quot;&lt;/strong&gt;&lt;/p&gt;&lt;h3&gt;&lt;strong&gt;Quick tips for students and teachers&lt;/strong&gt;&lt;/h3&gt;&lt;p&gt;&lt;strong&gt;Keep it short: &lt;/strong&gt;A two- to three-minute speech is easier to remember and deliver well.&lt;/p&gt;&lt;p&gt;&lt;strong&gt;Use simple English: &lt;/strong&gt;Clear words are more effective than complicated vocabulary.&lt;/p&gt;&lt;p&gt;&lt;strong&gt;Practise aloud:&lt;/strong&gt; Students should practise pronunciation, pauses and eye contact rather than simply memorising every sentence.&lt;/p&gt;&lt;p&gt;&lt;strong&gt;Sound natural: &lt;/strong&gt;A speech should feel like a student is talking to the audience, not reading an essay.&lt;/p&gt;&lt;p&gt;&lt;strong&gt;End confidently:&lt;/strong&gt; Look up, pause and deliver the final line clearly.&lt;/p&gt;&lt;p&gt;For teachers, one useful approach is to encourage students to connect the meaning of freedom with their own lives. That makes an Independence Day speech more thoughtful, relatable and memorable.&lt;/p&gt;]]></content:encoded>

            <content:encoded><![CDATA[&lt;p&gt;&lt;strong&gt;Bengaluru:&lt;/strong&gt; Getting a job in a top tech company is a dream for every software engineer. But 27-year-old Soumyadeep Paul's story is proof that if you don't give up on your goal, success is definitely possible. Soumyadeep, who currently works at Amazon, landed a job at Google after being rejected a whopping 12 times. His 13th attempt was the one that finally worked. He shared this incredible journey on the social media site &lsquo;X&rsquo;, and the post has now gone completely viral.&lt;/p&gt;&lt;p&gt;&lt;strong&gt;A long list of rejections from tech giants!&lt;/strong&gt;&lt;/p&gt;&lt;p&gt;His tough journey wasn't just with Google. He was rejected by Amazon 3 times and by Microsoft a massive 16 times before he finally got offer letters from them. As for Apple and Oracle, he says he never even got a call back. Sharing what he learned from this experience, Paul said that getting into Big Tech companies is &quot;literally a numbers game&quot;.&lt;/p&gt;&lt;p&gt;&lt;strong&gt;Motivational Story: This Unbreakable Bond Between Brothers Is Winning Hearts Online!&lt;/strong&gt;&lt;/p&gt;&lt;p&gt;&amp;nbsp;&lt;/p&gt;&lt;p&gt;I got into Google after getting rejected 12 times. 13th time was the charm&amp;nbsp;Now just Google,&amp;nbsp;Amazon - got the offer after 3 rejectionsMicrosoft - got the offer after 16 rejectionsApple - never got a call backOracle - never got a call backApplying in these companies is&hellip; pic.twitter.com/gjHMdfzdEA&lt;/p&gt;&lt;p&gt;&mdash; Soumyadeep Paul (@investwithpaul) July 19, 2026&lt;/p&gt;&lt;p&gt;&amp;nbsp;&lt;/p&gt;&lt;p&gt;&lt;strong&gt;Soumyadeep's smart tips for job seekers!&lt;/strong&gt;&lt;/p&gt;&lt;p&gt;He gave some valuable advice for those looking for jobs. &quot;Don't just send your resume for any and every role. Check if your skills are a proper match for the Job Description. Get a referral from someone you know in the company, and directly email or message the HR and hiring managers on LinkedIn,&quot; he advised.&lt;/p&gt;&lt;p&gt;&lt;strong&gt;Inspiring people to not fear failure!&lt;/strong&gt;&lt;/p&gt;&lt;p&gt;Soumyadeep's experience is a big lesson for today's job seekers, who often get anxious and lose hope after failing just one or two interviews. He treated every rejection as a chance to fix his mistakes and improve his skills. His long journey is living proof that with continuous hard work and the right strategy, you can open the doors to any big company, no matter how large.&lt;/p&gt;&lt;p&gt;&lt;strong&gt;Mixed reactions from netizens!&lt;/strong&gt;&lt;/p&gt;&lt;p&gt;The post received mixed reactions online. While some people praised his grit and persistence, others felt that getting so many offers and opportunities is only possible if your resume has a degree from a Tier-1 college like an IIT or NIT, or the name of a famous company.&lt;/p&gt;&lt;p&gt;&lt;strong&gt;Wipro Shocker: One HR Call Ends 5.5-Year Journey, Delhi Woman Reveals All!&lt;/strong&gt;&lt;/p&gt;]]></content:encoded>

            <content:encoded><![CDATA[&lt;p&gt;At an age when many people begin thinking about retirement, 56-year-old Reshma spends her days travelling across Bengaluru, delivering Amazon parcels to support her family. A cancer survivor, she has been working as a delivery associate for the past five years, refusing to give up despite serious health challenges and mounting financial pressure.&lt;/p&gt;&lt;h2&gt;&lt;strong&gt;Every day begins with a delivery route&lt;/strong&gt;&lt;/h2&gt;&lt;p&gt;Reshma starts her day at 7 am by loading parcels into her electric rickshaw before heading out on her delivery route. Years ago, she underwent surgery for oral cancer, which permanently changed the left side of her face. One of her eyes waters constantly, and she cannot fully lift one of her arms.&lt;/p&gt;&lt;p&gt;Despite these physical difficulties, she climbs flights of stairs every day to ensure customers receive their packages.&lt;/p&gt;&lt;p&gt;&quot;Many people ask me, 'Why do you do this job if you can't climb stairs?' But if I quit, who will run my family?&quot; she says.&lt;/p&gt;&lt;p&gt;&lt;strong&gt;'Adjust For Just 1 Km': Pune Cab Driver's Request to Women Mid-Ride Triggers Safety Debate (WATCH)&lt;/strong&gt;&lt;/p&gt;&lt;h2&gt;&lt;strong&gt;COVID-19 forced a complete career change&lt;/strong&gt;&lt;/h2&gt;&lt;p&gt;Before becoming a delivery associate, Reshma stitched shirts for garment factories from her home. She earned around ₹1,000 a day and managed to support her family through tailoring.&lt;/p&gt;&lt;p&gt;However, when the COVID-19 pandemic shut down garment factories, she lost her only source of income. Left with no steady earnings, she joined Amazon as a delivery associate to make ends meet.&lt;/p&gt;&lt;h3&gt;&lt;strong&gt;One tragedy after another&lt;/strong&gt;&lt;/h3&gt;&lt;p&gt;The family's struggles began in 2014 when her son was diagnosed with kidney failure. They borrowed around Rs 7 lakh for his treatment, but despite spending seven months in hospital, he could not be saved.&lt;/p&gt;&lt;p&gt;Just a year later, Reshma was diagnosed with oral cancer. In 2016, she underwent a major reconstructive surgery in which doctors used skin and bone from her thigh to rebuild part of her face.&lt;/p&gt;&lt;p&gt;&lt;strong&gt;Bengaluru Law Student Stabbed to Death by Man for Rejecting His Brother's &lsquo;Love&rsquo;&lt;/strong&gt;&lt;/p&gt;&lt;h2&gt;&lt;strong&gt;Daily earnings, but debts continue&lt;/strong&gt;&lt;/h2&gt;&lt;p&gt;Today, Reshma earns around Rs 700 a day through deliveries. Her daughter works at a car showroom and earns about Rs 15,000 a month. Even with both incomes, the family continues to struggle financially.&lt;/p&gt;&lt;p&gt;To manage household expenses and her daughter's wedding, the family borrowed another Rs 7-8 lakh through microfinance loans. They even purchased gold earrings and a chain on loan for the wedding but may now have to return the jewellery because they cannot afford the interest.&lt;/p&gt;&lt;h3&gt;&lt;strong&gt;Carrying the family's responsibility&lt;/strong&gt;&lt;/h3&gt;&lt;p&gt;According to Reshma, her husband has not contributed much to the family's finances since their son's death. She says he developed an alcohol addiction after the tragedy, leaving her and her daughter to shoulder all the household responsibilities.&lt;/p&gt;&lt;p&gt;&quot;I work all day just to earn enough for one square meal,&quot; she says.&lt;/p&gt;&lt;p&gt;&lt;strong&gt;Viral Video of Woman Hurting Three-Month-Old Nephew Sparks Outrage, Family Members Detained&lt;/strong&gt;&lt;/p&gt;&lt;h2&gt;&lt;strong&gt;Kindness keeps her going&lt;/strong&gt;&lt;/h2&gt;&lt;p&gt;Reshma says not every day is easy. Some customers ignore her calls or insist she climb several floors despite her visible health condition.&lt;/p&gt;&lt;p&gt;Still, she remembers the people who treated her with kindness. One customer handed her Rs 500 and told her to buy something to eat. The gesture, she says, is something she will never forget.&lt;/p&gt;&lt;h2&gt;&lt;strong&gt;A growing reality for older workers&lt;/strong&gt;&lt;/h2&gt;&lt;p&gt;Reshma's story reflects a larger trend across India. Rising living costs, debt, health problems and the absence of pension security are forcing many people in their 50s and 60s into the gig economy.&lt;/p&gt;&lt;p&gt;Today, older workers are increasingly seen delivering food, groceries and parcels for companies such as Amazon, Zomato, Swiggy, Blinkit and Uber. Labour unions say many of them work 12 to 14 hours a day, with little hope of retiring anytime soon.&lt;/p&gt;&lt;p&gt;&lt;strong&gt;Bengaluru's Biggest Metro Line Gets a New Timeline: Here's Why Commuters Must Wait Until 2033&lt;/strong&gt;&lt;/p&gt;]]></content:encoded>

The school publishes Hindi and English editions.&lt;/strong&gt;&lt;/p&gt;]]></description>

            <content:encoded><![CDATA[&lt;p&gt;A government school in Rajasthan's Tonk district has found an unusual way to bring newspapers closer to children in a rural area. PM Shri Government Senior Secondary School in Raholi publishes its own newspapers in Hindi and English, giving students a chance to learn journalism by actually doing the work. The Hindi newspaper is called 'Raholi Shiksha Samachar', while its English edition is 'Raholi Education Times'. Both are published in print and online.&lt;/p&gt;&lt;p&gt;Family Buys New Home, Then Discovers Hidden Walking Trails In Woods; Internet Loves The Secret Garden&lt;/p&gt;&lt;h2&gt;&lt;strong&gt;Students run the newsroom&lt;/strong&gt;&lt;/h2&gt;&lt;p&gt;The newspapers are largely produced by students from Classes 10 to 12. From collecting information to taking photographs, recording videos and conducting interviews, students take part in almost every stage of the process. They also write and edit stories, prepare graphics and work on page layouts.&lt;/p&gt;&lt;p&gt;Some students work as reporters, while others take on roles such as photographers, graphic designers, news writers and editorial assistants.&lt;/p&gt;&lt;p&gt;Teachers remain involved as guides and mentors, helping students understand how journalism works and checking the content before publication.&lt;/p&gt;&lt;p&gt;An editorial board has also been formed to oversee the newspaper. It includes school principal Dr Yogendra Singh Naruka, teacher Pooja Patidar and selected students.&lt;/p&gt;&lt;p&gt;'Pahadi Kids Are Built Different': Little Girl Carrying 3 Water Cans Goes Viral, Video Sparks Debate&lt;/p&gt;&lt;h3&gt;&lt;strong&gt;The idea came from a simple problem&lt;/strong&gt;&lt;/h3&gt;&lt;p&gt;Naruka, who has studied journalism, told news agency PTI that he noticed a lack of newspapers in many students' homes after taking charge of the school in Raholi. He also felt that the achievements and activities taking place at the school were not getting enough attention from larger newspapers.&lt;/p&gt;&lt;p&gt;He recalled that whenever a school achievement was covered in a newspaper, students would repeatedly read the report, show it to their classmates and feel proud.&lt;/p&gt;&lt;p&gt;That experience gave him the idea of creating a newspaper within the school itself.&lt;/p&gt;&lt;p&gt;'Could Barely Spend Time With Child': Man in Australia Quits Big 4 Bank Job Over 'Toxic' Indian Manager&lt;/p&gt;&lt;h2&gt;&lt;strong&gt;First issue published in 2023&lt;/strong&gt;&lt;/h2&gt;&lt;p&gt;Before starting the newspaper, the school had published a book based on its three-year development plan during the 2022 academic session. After that effort, the first issue of Raholi Shiksha Samachar was published in 2023. Naruka initially paid for it himself. Teachers later came forward to support the project, helping the newspaper continue regularly.&lt;/p&gt;&lt;p&gt;The print edition is published monthly, quarterly or on special occasions, depending on the time and funds available.&lt;/p&gt;&lt;p&gt;Army Jawan Strangles 7-Month Pregnant Wife Before Leaving For J&amp;amp;K, Family Alleges Affair&lt;/p&gt;&lt;h2&gt;&lt;strong&gt;Teachers fund the newspaper&lt;/strong&gt;&lt;/h2&gt;&lt;p&gt;The school does not receive separate government funding for the newspaper. According to Naruka, teachers voluntarily contribute towards its printing and distribution. Copies are then given to students free of cost.&lt;/p&gt;&lt;p&gt;The newspaper covers a wide range of subjects, including school activities, academics, sports, cultural events, social issues, environmental work and student innovations.&lt;/p&gt;&lt;p&gt;For the students involved, the project offers more than just something to read.&lt;/p&gt;&lt;p&gt;It gives them a chance to ask questions, find stories, work as a team and understand how news is created. It also allows them to see their own achievements in print.&lt;/p&gt;&lt;p&gt;In a school where many children had limited access to newspapers at home, the initiative has turned the school itself into a small newsroom &mdash; and its students into the people telling its stories.&lt;/p&gt;&lt;p&gt;Thai Weightlifter's 124kg Lift Goes Viral After Sassy Celebration Steals Show (WATCH)&lt;/p&gt;&lt;p&gt;&lt;strong&gt;(With inputs from agencies)&lt;/strong&gt;&lt;/p&gt;]]></content:encoded>

            <content:encoded><![CDATA[&lt;p&gt;Uttarakhand celebrated Harela 2026 with a large-scale tree plantation drive led by Chief Minister Pushkar Singh Dhami and Yoga Guru Baba Ramdev at Shri Dhanvantari Dham &ndash; Herbal World Himalaya in Yamkeshwar, Pauri Garhwal. The event highlighted the importance of environmental conservation, Ayurveda, biodiversity and sustainable development while reinforcing the state's commitment to increasing green cover.&lt;/p&gt;&lt;h2&gt;CM Dhami, Baba Ramdev Lead Plantation Drive&lt;/h2&gt;&lt;p&gt;On the occasion of Harela, CM Dhami and Baba Ramdev planted saplings at Dhanvantari Dham and urged people to actively participate in protecting nature. The plantation drive forms part of Uttarakhand's broader green campaign aimed at increasing forest cover and encouraging public participation in environmental conservation.&lt;/p&gt;&lt;h2&gt;Dhanvantari Dham Showcases India's Herbal Heritage&lt;/h2&gt;&lt;p&gt;During the visit, the Chief Minister toured the Herbal World Himalaya campus, which houses a rich collection of medicinal plants and herbal research initiatives. He praised the centre for preserving traditional Ayurvedic knowledge while integrating it with modern scientific research and innovation.&lt;/p&gt;&lt;h2&gt;Vision for a Global Herbal and Science Hub&lt;/h2&gt;&lt;p&gt;CM Dhami said Dhanvantari Dham has the potential to emerge as a global destination for herbal research, biodiversity conservation and Ayurveda. He noted that the project combines traditional Indian healing systems with scientific advancement and could strengthen Uttarakhand's identity as a centre for natural wellness and research.&lt;/p&gt;&lt;h2&gt;Harela: A Festival That Celebrates Nature&lt;/h2&gt;&lt;p&gt;Describing Harela as one of Uttarakhand's most significant cultural festivals, the Chief Minister said it symbolizes the deep bond between people and nature. Celebrated at the beginning of the monsoon season, the festival encourages tree plantation, environmental awareness and prayers for prosperity and a good harvest.&lt;/p&gt;&lt;h2&gt;Government Reaffirms Commitment to Green Development&lt;/h2&gt;&lt;p&gt;The state government reiterated that environmental conservation remains a key priority. Through plantation drives, biodiversity conservation projects and promotion of medicinal plants, Uttarakhand aims to protect its Himalayan ecosystem while encouraging sustainable development and public participation in green initiatives.&lt;/p&gt;]]></content:encoded>

            <content:encoded><![CDATA[&lt;p&gt;A video showing a man confronting his senior over his sudden termination has gone viral on social media, triggering a wider debate about transparency and employee rights in private companies. The authenticity of the claims made in the video has not been independently verified. According to the viral post, the employee had been working allegedly at Transcom Global and was recently informed that his services had been terminated. The caption accompanying the video alleged that the company did not provide any clear reason for the decision despite repeated requests.&lt;/p&gt;&lt;p&gt;At Transcom, an employee was forcibly removed from the premises with No Reason For Termination clearly stated No official notice was givenThe video proof shared with Transcom management weeks ago received only silence.&amp;nbsp;This raises serious questions on unfair treatment and&hellip; pic.twitter.com/mTrvlBiNNE&lt;/p&gt;&lt;p&gt;&mdash; Ramesh Tiwari (@rameshofficial0) July 20, 2026&lt;/p&gt;&lt;p&gt;&lt;strong&gt;Shocking Video Shows Armed Men Robbing Punjab Fruit Seller Of Cash And Bananas In Broad Daylight&lt;/strong&gt;&lt;/p&gt;&lt;h2&gt;&lt;strong&gt;Employee asks for proof&lt;/strong&gt;&lt;/h2&gt;&lt;p&gt;In the viral video, the employee repeatedly asks his manager why he has been removed from the job. The manager reportedly replies that the client's process was not followed.&lt;/p&gt;&lt;p&gt;The employee immediately questions the explanation, saying he never received any email or communication from the client about such an issue. He then asks the manager to show him the email or any written proof supporting the allegation.&lt;/p&gt;&lt;p&gt;However, the manager is seen refusing to share any such document in the video. The employee also claims that even after asking for the reason in writing, he did not receive any official explanation.&lt;/p&gt;&lt;p&gt;&lt;strong&gt;'We Were About To Use It': Woman's Rs 300 Grocery Delivery Story Sparks Honesty Debate Online (WATCH)&lt;/strong&gt;&lt;/p&gt;&lt;h3&gt;&lt;strong&gt;Claims in the viral post&lt;/strong&gt;&lt;/h3&gt;&lt;p&gt;The caption shared with the video accuses the company of unfairly terminating the employee without assigning any reason. It further alleges that the manager himself admitted there was &quot;no reason for termination&quot; and questioned whether private companies could act without accountability.&lt;/p&gt;&lt;p&gt;These claims remain unverified, and no official statement from the company has been made public regarding the incident.&lt;/p&gt;&lt;h2&gt;&lt;strong&gt;Social media reacts&lt;/strong&gt;&lt;/h2&gt;&lt;p&gt;The video quickly gained attention, with many users linking it to concerns over toxic work culture in the private sector.&lt;/p&gt;&lt;p&gt;आजकल Private Company वाले गुंडागर्दी करते हैं Employee के साथ गैरकानूनी Termination का Live तस्वीरें&amp;nbsp;एक शख्स Transcom Global कम्पनी में काम करता था,कुछ दिन पहले इसको Termination कर दिया गया है।इसके पीछे No Reason, उनके मैनेजर Vijay Chaudhury कह रहे हैं &quot;No Reason For&hellip; pic.twitter.com/gODTDPkIdg&lt;/p&gt;&lt;p&gt;&mdash; Subhajit Das (@SantaniSubhajit) July 20, 2026&lt;/p&gt;&lt;p&gt;Several users claimed that similar incidents happen in many companies and argued that employees deserve a proper explanation before being dismissed. Others said every termination should follow a documented process and that workers should receive written communication explaining the decision.&lt;/p&gt;&lt;p&gt;Some users advised the employee to seek legal guidance or approach the labour department if he believed company rules or labour laws had been violated. Others criticised what they described as arbitrary treatment of employees, while a few stressed that any conclusions should be based on verified facts and company policies.&lt;/p&gt;&lt;p&gt;&lt;strong&gt;Panic at UP School After Principal Walks in With Knife and Cleaver, Probe Launched After Viral Video&lt;/strong&gt;&lt;/p&gt;]]></content:encoded>
