RTO Kashmir issues rare advisory, asks people to avoid office visits amid extreme heat

While J&K government is yet to officially declare a heatwave or announce any relaxations for schools and offices, the Regional Transport Office (RTO), Kashmir, has become perhaps the first government department to advise the public against unnecessary visits. The order, which is being widely circulated on social media, advises people not to come to the office unless it is absolutely necessary. The citizens have been directed to send their grievances and service requests through WhatsApp, with a promise that these will be resolved within 48 hours wherever possible. The move has been widely hailed on social media as a welcome initiative, with many users expressing hope that the department will be able to deliver on its promise. The order has been issued right at the onset of the intense spell of heat hitting Kashmir. However, no heatwave has been declared officially yet. Consequently, no closure or change in working hours for schools or most government offices has been announced. Meanwhile, thousands of children, a majority under 10 years of age, continue to commute daily in buses and vans to schools. There are growing calls for a summer break from parents and doctors to protect children from prolonged exposure to extreme temperatures. Moreover, many schools lack fans and adequate drinking water facilities, exposing students to discomfort and potential health risks One parent lamented that his two children take nearly 90 minutes to get to school by bus from school. They travel at 3 pm, which is the hottest hour of the day, he said, not wishing to identify himself.

Psychology says people are being emotionally bankrupt and don't even know: Philosopher explains how

Most of us go through life feeling vaguely tired, not physically, but in a feeling that's harder to explain. We snap at people we love. We struggle to concentrate. We lie in bed at night feeling drained, even though nothing particularly disturbing happened that day.We blame stress, sleep, or our schedules. But what if the real reason is something simpler and something entirely within our control?Think about the last time something small completely ruined your day. Maybe it was a coffee order that came out wrong. A flight that got delayed by forty minutes. A long queue at the grocery store when you were already tired.While on the surface, none of these things should matter very much. And yet, for a lot of us, they do, and because of all this, the mood drops. The whole day feels impacted by something that, in the larger picture, is entirely insignificant.

Dining solo on trips, though initially daunting, can reveal a traveler's inner strength and independence. Psychologists suggest this experience fosters emotional resilience and self-awareness, as individuals learn to enjoy their own company without external validation. Embracing solitude during travel allows for deeper immersion and a greater sense of accomplishment, ultimately building confidence and a more profound connection with the destination.

People disheartened by ruling party's disappointing performance: Altaf Bukhari

Apni Party today said the ruling National Conference (NC) suffered a major setback on Friday in the Natipora area of the Chanapora constituency as dozens of its prominent leaders, workers, and activists resigned from the party en masse and joined it. On this occasion, Apni Party President Syed Mohammad Altaf Bukhari extended a warm welcome to the new entrants into the party fold, assuring them that the Apni Party would prove to be a reliable platform for serving the people in their respective areas. He expressed hope that their joining would further strengthen the party's cadre in the Natipora ward. The joining of new members took place during an enthusiastic workers meeting, which was essentially called to review the local public issues and grievances and to discuss certain party affairs. Both, the meeting and joining programme were organised by partys Ward President for Natipora Arjumand Makhdoomi. Speaking on the occasion, Syed Mohammad Altaf Bukahri urged his party leaders and workers to intensify their political and public outreach activities in order the strengthen the part cadre across the Srinagar city. He said, As people have become disheartened by the ruling party's disappointing performance and its failure to fulfil its promises, it is our responsibility to step forward, stand by the people, and highlight their issues and grievances so that they are addressed effectively. He further said, People have now fully understood that they were deceived by the ruling party through false promises made during its 2024 election campaign. The National Conference (NC) had promised the moon and stars to the people to secure their votes. It had pledged to provide one lakh jobs soon after assuming office. It had also promised to regularise the services of daily wagers. Among its key promises were 200 units of free electricity, free LPG cylinders for households, and an enhanced ration quota. However, all these promises have proved to be false and misleading. Speaking about the major issues facing the people, Syed Mohammad Altaf Bukhari said that the elected government neither has the will nor the capacity to ensure that these issues are addressed. He said, Whether it is the restoration of statehood, creation of employment opportunities, release of detainees, simplification of the passport issuance and verification process required for employment, or other important issues, all these matters can only be addressed by the Union Government. Reiterating his demand, he urged the Centre to initiate a dialogue with the people of Jammu and Kashmir to address their issues and concerns. He said, Hon'ble Prime Minister and Hon'ble Home Minister have themselves assured that the Union Government would engage with the youth of Jammu and Kashmir to listen to their grievances and address them. This is the right time to fulfil that promise. There should be a meaningful dialogue between the Centre and the people of Jammu and Kashmir. Meanwhile the prominent among the new joinees included Halqa President (NC) Mohammad Amin Bhat, Senior Worker NC Asadullah, Saleem Jehangir, Mohammad Aslam Dar, Dr Zahoor Ahmad, Hilal Ahmad Haqqani, Zahoor Ahmad Bhat, Idrees Ahmad, Imtiyaz Ahmad Dar, Zahoor Ahmad, Sheikh Umar, Bilal Ahmad Dar, John Mohammad Dar, Dr Shahid, Zaid Javid, Dr Kamran, Haseeb Aslam, Adil Mushtaq Hafiz, Mohammad Younis Dar, Arslan Sajad, liyakat Ali, Ishtiq Ahmad, John Mohammad, Mudasir Ahmad, Mubashir Jahangir, and others. Besides Syed Mohammad Altaf Bukhari, the prominent party leaders who were present on the occasion included Vice President District Srinagar Aijaz Ahmad Rather, Ward president Budshah Nagar Imran Lone, Member Committee District Srinagar Afroza Khan and others.

Psychology says people who talk to others from inside the washroom arent crossing personal boundaries, they may be more uncomfortable with silence than conversation

Psychology suggests that people who talk to others from inside the washroom are often influenced by a combination of social bonding, communication habits learned over time, family dynamics, personal comfort with privacy, and individual interaction styles. For many, the behavior is less about ignoring boundaries and more about maintaining connection without interrupting a conversation.
