Psychology says people who try food items with unique names aren't merely trying to show off, appear different, or reject ordinary food. Their choices may be linked to curiosity, openness to experience, sensation seeking and a willingness to explore unfamiliar things. Unique food names can also change expectations about taste, authenticity and the overall eating experience through language and mental associations.

People often reread their own old messages years later, even when they have no real reason to. Psychology suggests the habit can be linked to nostalgia, memory, curiosity, closure and the need to understand how much we have changed. Old chats can also act as a record of past experiences, allowing people to compare what they remember with what they actually wrote at the time.

Centre deferred Census exercise as per people's wishes: Manipur CM
Manipur Chief Minister Y Khemchand Singh on Wednesday said the Centre deferred the conduct of the Census in the state as per the wishes of the people.

The CM, addressing the House, said, In August 2022, the then chief minister N Biren Singh moved a resolution that NRC (National Register of Citizens) should be carried out in Manipur and a letter was subsequently sent to the Ministry of Home Affairs (MHA) regarding this in 2023. The same was reaffirmed in the 2024 session of the assembly, and the resolution was sent to the MHA.

People are angry, that is why they are on streets: LoP Sunil Sharma
Srinagar, Sep 02: Leader of Opposition in the Jammu and Kashmir Legislative Assembly Sunil Sharma on Wednesday said the BJPs protest in Srinagar reflected what he termed the failures of the National Conference-led government, as party leaders and workers gathered at Lal Chowk ahead of a planned march towards the Civil Secretariat. Security was tightened across Lal Chowk ahead of the BJPs proposed Civil Secretariat gherao, with the Hari Singh High Street road towards the Secretariat closed and heavy deployment of police and paramilitary personnel in place. Speaking to reporters on the sidelines of the gathering near the Clock Tower, Sharma said people were taking to the streets over issues including electricity, water, roads and unemployment. This is a reflection of the failures of the government, which you are seeing on the streets today. Those who are yearning for electricity and water, those who are yearning for roads, those who are yearning for a job, especially young people, those young people are told that today they will not get a job from PSC or SSRB, Sharma said. He alleged that the government had failed to provide adequate employment opportunities to the youth and claimed that jobs were being linked to contractors associated with the National Conference. Today you ask for a job from a contractor of the National Conference. Today, if you have to appoint a doctor anywhere, he will be the contractor of the National Conference, he alleged. Sharma also criticised the government over the increase in electricity tariffs, saying it had placed an additional burden on the poor. On top of that, the government has increased the electricity tariff and has put a burden on the poor. People are angry, that is why they are on the streets, he said. Targeting Chief Minister Omar Abdullah, Sharma questioned the promises made by the National Conference during the Assembly elections, including its commitments on Article 370, free electricity and jobs. Mr Omar Abdullah had said he would bring back the so-called Article 370. He had said he would give 200 units of electricity for free and 100,000 jobs, Sharma said. He also challenged Omar Abdullah to seek a fresh mandate from the people on the issue of statehood. If Mr Omar Abdullah has even a little bit of dignity left, then come and fight the elections on statehood and resign from Ganderbal. If people win the elections and send you to the statehood, then we will bow before you, Sharma said. The BJP had announced that it would march towards the Civil Secretariat as part of the protest. The party leaders and workers were gathered at the Clock Tower at the time of filing this report and had not yet begun the march.(KNO)

Nepal death toll crosses 1,000; rescue operations continue as 3,916 people remain missing
Kathmandu [Nepal], September 1 : The death toll from the devastating flash flood in Nepal has reached 1,003, according to an official update released by the National Disaster Risk Reduction and Management Authority (NDRRMA) as of 1 PM on Tuesday. The recovered bodies, which include unidentified human remains, have been found across eight districts: 321 in Chitwan, 216 in Nawalparasi East, 170 in Nawalparasi West, 95 in Nuwakot, 65 in Gorkha, 57 in Dhading, 41 in Rasuwa, and 38 in Tanahun. To manage unidentified remains, bodies have been transferred to 21 hospitals across various districts, with details posted on official government web portals and social media channels. The report highlights that 3,916 people remain missing following the disaster. Local administrative reports indicate that 1,558 people are missing in Nuwakot and 865 in Rasuwa, alongside 639 workers from hydropower projects, 583 foreign nationals, and 164 Nepali citizens traveling with foreign groups. Missing security and administrative personnel include 45 members of the Nepal Army, 25 from the Nepal Police, 13 from the Armed Police Force, 15 from the Customs Office, and three each from the Immigration Office, Langtang National Park, and the Quarantine Office. Large-scale rescue operations have successfully saved 11,884 people to date. Aerial rescue operations conducted by the Nepal Army account for 3,782 evacuated individuals, including 273 foreigners and 3,509 Nepalis. The Nepal Army has completed 592 helicopter flights, including 41 on September 1 alone, while private sector operators from Kathmandu have completed 29 flights. A total of 279 individuals were reported injured, with 168 already discharged from hospitals and 2,740 receiving medical treatment from Nepal Army medical teams. Additionally, NDRRMA outlined critical response developments across flood-devastated regions, detailing high-risk subterranean search-and-rescue operations at hydropower sites alongside ongoing transport corridor repairs. Specialised teams comprising Nepal Army personnel, the Armed Police Force, and Nepal Electricity Authority staff, supported by international experts, continue complex operations inside flooded tunnels. At the Trishuli 3-A Hydropower Project, a 90-person crew located the Crown Head section and cleared 10 meters of mud, but heavy water discharge from an initial test drill forced personnel to drill at a secondary location to gain safe access. At Trishuli 3-B, an excavator was airlifted via helicopter to support a 47-member search force. Search teams led by Nepal Army officers and foreign experts penetrated 300 meters into the Haku tunnel head and 250 meters into the Mailung tunnel tail at Upper Trishuli 1, navigating through 3 to 4 meters of dense, swampy mud. Specialised Collapsed Structure Search and Rescue units reached 57 meters inside the Chilime facility, while additional teams extended searches 200 meters into Rasuwagadhi and 150 meters into the Langtang project tunnels. Across hard-to-reach terrain, Nepal Army ground forces remain active across seven dedicated zones in Nuwakot district, supported by 18 helicopter shuttle flights focused on rescue and extraction. Significant efforts are also underway to restore destroyed transport links and infrastructure. Road crews are clearing debris and conducting repairs on the large river bridge along the Galchhi-Devighat corridor, while technical surveys have commenced for a replacement Bailey bridge after the Tadi River structure was swept away. Clearance crews have advanced past the cliff zone near Dhunge Bazar toward Betrawati, though a 300-meter section of the remaining 2.8 km stretch was completely washed away, leaving the river flowing through the former roadbed and forcing teams to map alternative bypasses. To sustain essential traffic and movement, authorities have opened several alternative access routes. Light vehicles are operating along the Bahunbesi-Lachyang-Parchyang-Dhunche route as well as the Betrawati-Rasuwa bypass via Dhikure, Phedibesi, Chogate, and Borembhyang. Standard traffic continues along the Bidur-Chogate, Borembhyang-Lachyang-Jirokilo-Dhubbesi stretch and the Koloni-Buddhasinghghat road. Meanwhile, heavy machinery supplied by Bidur Municipality is clearing the Bidur-11 Thapatar-Betrawati section, with additional clearance initiatives underway to reopen the Chogate-Borembhyang-Dandadhara-Patikharka route for heavy transport. NDRRMA noted that a force of 21,314 security personnel is deployed across the disaster zone, comprising 9,199 from the Nepal Army, 7,912 from the Nepal Police, and 4,203 from the Armed Police Force. Emergency relief materials are moving continuously into affected areas, with 37 trucks and 37 Bolero vehicles dispatched by road, supplemented by 77 relief flights conducted by the Armed Police Force to locations in Rasuwa and Nuwakot, plus nine additional helicopter deliveries. To provide temporary support, 3,453 displaced citizens are staying in holding centers located in Nuwakot, Rasuwa, Kathmandu, and Dhading. Financial aid from the Government of Nepal includes NPR 10 million each allocated to Rasuwa and Nuwakot, NPR 5 million to Dhading, and NPR 67.5 million distributed among 15 affected local governments. Essential services and supplies are steadily being restored in the disaster zone. Nepal Telecom has made all 110 damaged towers operational, while Ncell has restored 75 of its 78 damaged towers. Fuel stocks in the region stand at 42,000 litres of diesel, 18,000 litres of petrol, and 6,000 litres of aviation fuel. (ANI)

PM hails 7.8% GDP growth, urges people to avoid buying gold, foreign trips
Prime Minister Narendra Modi on Tuesday applauded the country's people for the 7.8 per cent GDP growth rate, calling the feat particularly impressive, coming against the backdrop of global turmoil, geopolitical conflicts, and supply chain disruptions. In a video message on Instagram, the prime minister also slammed those spreading jhooth ki goonj (an apparent riff on Rahul Gandhi's 'Chhatron ki Goonj' campaign), saying the latest GDP growth rate tore through the narrative of pessimism about the Indian economy. Modi said India must maintain the growth momentum and continue working towards greater self-reliance and 'Swadeshi'. We must maintain this momentum. We must keep moving forward, and for that, becoming Atmanirbhar Bharat is essential, he said.

Govt failed to deliver on peoples mandate: Hakeem Yaseen
Srinagar, Aug 31: Jammu and Kashmir Peoples Democratic Front (PDF) President and former Minister Hakeem Mohammad Yaseen on Monday criticised the government for allegedly failing to address the concerns of the people despite receiving a massive mandate, saying that the past two years have not brought the expected relief or development to the public. Addressing various delegations from Budgam district, Yaseen said that people had voted with great expectations, but the government has failed to deliver on its promises. It has been two years since the government received a massive mandate, but people are still waiting for tangible action on issues concerning their daily lives, he said. Yaseen said political statements, blaming games and taking credit for ongoing projects would not resolve the problems confronting the people. He alleged that successive governments had failed to safeguard the interests of Jammu and Kashmir and said all political parties were responsible for selling power projects, water and other resources while leaving the people to face hardships. He expressed concern over the difficulties faced by farmers and horticulturists due to flash floods, heavy rains, hailstorms and other weather-related incidents. He said many farmers suffered extensive crop losses, but adequate compensation had not been provided by the concerned Agriculture and Horticulture departments. Yaseen also alleged that there was a lack of accountability in the functioning of various departments. Referring to reports of spurious and substandard pesticides being sold in the market, he demanded strict inspections and a time-bound investigation to identify those responsible.

China Rewrites War Law: 1.4B People, Factories, Infrastructure Mobilised, What's Xi Plotting?
China has rewritten its defence mobilisation law. Effective October 1, it lets the state mobilise citizens, specialists, companies, data and civilian resources during a defence emergency. Men aged 18 to 60 and women aged 18 to 55 may be assigned defence duties. Some specialists face no age limit. Vehicles, factories, ports, networks and other assets can be requisitioned, with compensation promised. Refusal can bring compulsory enforcement. Beijing says the changes modernise readiness and connect civilian strength with military power. The law does not prove an immediate war plan. But it shows China wants a faster switch from peace to wartime control. For India, this matters along the Himalayas and across the Indian Ocean. This report decodes the key provisions, the enforcement teeth and the strategic message. Is China preparing society for resilience, coercion, or both? Can India match Beijings mobilisation speed while protecting civilian rights? Watch facts and India angle.

Abhishek Banerjee has spoken about how his work in Stolen influenced the way filmmakers approached him professionally. Following the success of Stree 2, the actor took on the lead role in the survival thriller, which presented him in a different genre and required him to carry much of the films emotional and narrative arc. Reflecting on the shift in his career after Stree 2, Abhishek said, Stree 2 jaisi commercial film ke baad, meri agli film thi Stolen. It was a completely different space and a different genre. So, I think that also worked for me where people saw that I can take responsibility of a film on my shoulders and be with it till the last point. I am leading a few interesting projects and Im enjoying this journey.
