Psychology says people who get irritated at times on even small issues aren't necessarily angry: Here is what their behaviour may mean

Psychology says people who get irritated at times on even small issues aren't necessarily angry or mean. Irritation can appear when stress, tiredness, emotional pressure or mental overload reduces a person's ability to handle frustration. Small events may become the point where built-up emotions come out. Psychology explains how stress, exhaustion, frustration and emotional pressure can influence reactions and offers lessons about rest, self-awareness and emotional regulation.

Mineral wealth belongs to people of J&K: Govt

Srinagar, Aug 4: Deputy Chief Minister Surinder Choudhary on Tuesday said Jammu and Kashmir's mineral wealth belongs to its people and must be utilised scientifically to create employment and boost revenue generation.

Smartphones can overheat due to external heat sources and prolonged usage. Aluminium foil can act as a temporary heat shield by reflecting sunlight away. This method is most effective in outdoor or high-heat environments like car dashboards. However, completely wrapping the phone or covering ports should be avoided. Better cooling solutions include keeping the device in shade and closing unused applications.

People of Kashmir want an end to vicious cycle of violence: Dy CM

Jammu, Aug 1:Deputy Chief Minister Surinder Choudhary on Saturday, while condemning the killing of two migrant labourers in Kulgam, in a sharp dig at the Centre asked if its experiment to abrogate Article 370 in J&K on the premise of ending terrorism failed. He also demanded investigation into terror killings claiming innocent lives, which he claimed witnessed a spurt after the National Conferences statehood protest at Jantar Mantar on July 20. Centre had abrogated Article 370, truncated J&K into two Union Territories asserting that it would end terrorism. However, terror related violence still continues, claiming innocent lives. They (Centre) need to explain if their experiment failed, Choudhary stated, while speaking to media persons here. Asserting that the people of J&K, which has been fighting terrorism for the past more than three decades, want an end to this vicious cycle, the Deputy Chief Minister said, We express our deepest condolences to the bereaved families. But the people here are tired of condemning such incidents. It should end now. If terrorism has ended as it is claimed, why have these killings continued? Where are these militants coming from? It is happening even when the security forces are on high alert in wake of ongoing Amarnath Yatra and upcoming Independence Day, he stated, seeking the setting up of a high-level committee, by the Prime Minister and the Union Home Minister, to probe into the killings and identify the culprits. It was also staggering to note that the recent spurt in killings was noticed after NCs statehood protest in the union capital, Choudhary maintained. Seemingly someone does not want it (restoration of statehood) to happen. If Pakistan is behind these killings, the Centre must take stringent action, he stated.
