What do you want to know?.

Hi @ManikondaMc , can we have this addressed? @ManaManikonda.

Why India’s Independence Day falls on August 15? #IndependenceDay

I was nowhere near S R Nagar on 22 July and never commit any of the violations you mentioned in this challan. The vehicle in the photo isn’t mine. @HYDTP, it’s unfair to let the real offender go free while penalizing someone completely unrelated.

Hi @HYDTP Challan No. HYD07EC250639198 issued to me on 22 July for ₹1,300 is a clear case of mistaken identity. My vehicle: Silver TVS Jupiter Challan photo: Blue, non-Jupiter vehicle (regn. no. not visible). Request urgent revocation & action on real offender. #WrongChallan

Insane flooding in Manikonda. Water reached the cellars of many apartments. Stay Safe.

Did you know bubble wrap was originally invented as textured wallpaper? When that flopped, its inventors pitched it as greenhouse insulation. That failed too. But IBM saw potential, becoming the first to use it for safely shipping its 1401 computer. The rest is packaging history

In ancient India, people prayed to Lord Indra - the god of rain, thunder, and lightning. It’s said that each summer he rides his elephant Airavata to battle Vritra, the demon of drought, bringing the monsoon rains.

Each monsoon, India witnesses nearly 5 lakh lightning strikes claiming around 2,000 lives every year. This is a powerful reminder of nature’s fury and the need for caution.

On the other hand, less rainfall during monsoon can cause famine, forcing farmer suicide cases and increasing the debt and loan. A right monsoon is what we need for the well-being of everyone.

Excess water during monsoons can lead to stagnant pools and drains, which are the breeding place for various diseases such as Malaria, Cholera, Typhoid etc.

Monsoons bring much-needed rain, but excessive rainfall can also cause floods. Many Indian cities have been facing this of late.

Monsoon also fills rivers & reservoirs, increases ground water, and helps the forests sustain.

Since India is an agricultural country, the monsoon is crucial, as it brings about 90% of the annual rainfall. It has even been called the 'Real Finance Minister' by some.

The monsoon is not continuous. Spells of rain lasting several days are often followed by dry periods. This pattern is called a 'break' and is essential for people to carry on with normal life.

India’s summer monsoon is one of the most dramatic seasonal weather shifts in the world. Even a slight change in its pattern can lead to droughts or floods and significantly impact food production.

The start of monsoon is associated with a phenomenon known as ‘bursting of monsoon‘. It simply refers to the abrupt change in weather conditions at the start of monsoon such as the hot and dry weather prior to the summer monsoon is replaced by a wet and humid one after it.
