Dr Anshuman Kaushal, in a viral Instagram video, explained that late-night cravings are often caused by food noise a hormonal tug-of-war between ghrelin, leptin, and dopamine rather than true hunger. He said modern foods exploit this brain chemistry, fuelling overeating and obesity. Citing Yale and Stanford research, he added that GLP-1 drugs help reduce this neural volume, proving weight issues stem from neurobiology, not willpower.

Four farmers die by suicide in past 15 days as unseasonal rains ruin crops in Saurashtra
AHMEDABAD: Four farmers from Gujarat have died by suicide in the past 15 days as unseasonal rains wiped out crops and left behind unrelenting debt. Though the Gujarat government had only recently announced a Rs 10,000 crore loan relief package for farmers, the consecutive suicides reveal that the scheme has not reached those in need. A 50-year-old farmer from Ardoi village in Kotdasangani taluka, Rajkot district consumed poison in his farm late Saturday night. Dilipbhai Virdiya was found dead by his family: My father was tense for 1520 days after the last rain. When we found him, it was too late, his son Utsav told local media. Dilipbhai had taken loans to sow cumin, groundnut, and onion crops across 28 bighas of land, including 12 bighas of family land. Everything went to waste. We lost around Rs 10 lakh, Utsav said. He borrowed money, bought seeds, and sowed everything with hope. But unseasonal rains crushed all hope, village sarpanch Narshi Gajera said. Last year, Dilipbhai had taken loans for his daughter's marriage. His inability to recover from these financial losses led to his suicide, Gajera confirmed. Barely 24 hours earlier, Danabhai Ramjibhai Jadav of Rahamiya village in Vinchiya taluka, Rajkot district ended his life by hanging himself at home. His family claims he had cultivated groundnut and tur across 14 bighas, but when unexpected monsoon patterns destroyed his crops, depression and debt overwhelmed him. Vinchia Police have taken possession of the body and initiated an investigation, but villagers said that this is another case of a life lost to unkept promises and unpredictable skies. Ghafar Musa Unad of Revad village in Una taluka, Gir Somnath district, jumped into a well on November 3, after tying an electric wire around his waist. He had sown groundnut on his nine-bigha land, but the unseasonal downpour turned the ready-to-harvest crop to waste. His family revealed he had borrowed Rs two lakh from a cooperative society and was under mounting pressure to marry off two daughters. He couldnt see a way out, a relative said. In Bhanvad taluka of Dwarka district, 37-year-old Karsanbhai Vavnotia also succumbed to similar anguish. His groundnut seeds, purchased after taking a gold loan, were destroyed in the rains. The dual blow of loss and liability proved unbearable. His family told local reporters that Karsanbhai had been 'mentally broken' since the rains and saw no escape from his financial misery. These back-to-back deaths paint a chilling picture of Gujarats agrarian distress: a state that feeds millions now watching its own farmers wilt under the burden of debt. Even as the Gujarat government claims its Rs 10,000-crore package will alleviate rural pain, the suicides reveal a gap between announcements and access. Ground reports suggest many farmers havent received compensation or insurance payouts, leaving them at the mercy of moneylenders. For families like the Virdiyas, Jadavs, and Unads, help came too late and hope, perhaps, not at all. If you are having suicidal thoughts, or are worried about a friend or need emotional support, someone is always there to listen. Tele MANAS counsellors at:14416 (OR) 1800-89-14416

Woman allegedly sets pet dog on husband after jewelry dispute in Jharkhand's Hazaribagh
RANCHI: A woman allegedly set her pet dog on her husband at her parental home following a dispute over wearing jewelry. Rohit Jain, an accountant with Triveni Sainik Coal Mines in Hazaribagh, was married to Rupa Agrawal on January 24 this year. The incident took place at Krishnapuri Colony in Hazaribagh. According to police reports, Rohit Jain had gone to his wifes parental home to meet some guests on Friday and stayed there overnight. The next morning, during breakfast, Rohit advised his wife, Rupa, to wear artificial jewelry instead of real gold. This suggestion led to a heated argument between the couple. Rohit alleged that a few days after their marriage, his wife and in-laws began torturing him both mentally and physically. During the argument, Rupa allegedly provoked her pet German Shepherd to attack him. As soon as the dog received her command, it pounced on Rohit, leaving him severely injured. After considerable effort, other family members managed to free Rohit from the dogs grip. He was immediately admitted to a private hospital, where his condition is said to be critical. Doctors confirmed that he had suffered several deep wounds, which are currently being treated. Rohit has also expressed fear that his in-laws may attempt similar attacks in the future, claiming that he has been receiving constant threats that they will not spare him at any cost. The victim has requested police protection and strict action against those involved. Following the incident, questions have been raised about the role of Rupa and her family members. Meanwhile, the police have registered a complaint based on the medical report and Rohit Jains statement. Officer-in-charge of Lohsingna Police Station, Nishant Kerketta, confirmed that a case has been registered. He said the police team has inspected the spot and gathered evidence. It would be inappropriate to jump to any conclusions without a proper investigation. Both parties are being thoroughly questioned to uncover the full details of the matter, said the officer-in-charge.

BENGALURU/DAVANGERE : After videos of preferential treatment to some prisoners and security lapses at Bengaluru Central Prison in Parappana Agrahara went viral on Saturday, Home Minister G Parameshwara called a meeting with prison officials on Monday. Meanwhile, another undated video surfaced on Sunday showing inmates enjoying themselves inside the jail by consuming alcohol and dancing to beats created using available items such as plates and drums. Officials have yet to confirm whether the video was shot recently. Chief Minister Siddaramaiah told reporters in Davanagere that strict action will be taken against those found guilty and measures will be implemented to ensure such incidents do not recur. The officer concerned had gone on leave. The home minister has called a meeting tomorrow (Monday) to discuss the issue, he said.

But such incidents are happening repeatedly here (in Bengaluru). We have appointed B Dayananda as the head of prisons. He was on leave yesterday, but I have spoken to him. I told him that action should be taken against whoever responsible, be it the superintendent or lower-level staff and a report filed, Parameshwara said. Video grab of an inmate having outside food and liquor bottles at Bengaluru prison Home minister to discuss security lapses at jail I will not tolerate this nonsense. Enough is enough. Such things should not happen. Sometimes they say there is a shortage of staff, but that is not an excuse. You should do your work properly. If you use that excuse to allow mobile phones and TVs inside, it can no longer be called a jail, Parameshwara said. I will call a meeting of officers to discuss security lapses. We have already provided for CCTV cameras and jammers, which have been installed in some jails. If the report after the inquiry is not satisfactory, we will form a committee comprising different officers to study the lapses and take necessary measures. It doesnt matter if videos are old or new. Such incidents should not happen again, he added.

Bengaluru to get dedicated site to dump inert waste soon
BENGALURU: Bengaluru will soon get a dedicated site to dump inert waste. With Greater Bengaluru Authoritys Bangalore Solid Waste Management Limited (BSWML) gearing up to clear lakhs of tonnes of legacy waste lying in landfills around the city, it is estimated that around 800 tonnes of inert waste the end product of waste generated in the city that cannot disintegrate naturally or chemically is generated every day. Looking to dump inert waste, BSWML has zeroed in on an 18-acre site in Kada Agrahara, Mahadevapura. If all goes according to plan, the dumping of inert waste would commence by early next year, and it can take inert waste up to five years, post which other alternatives are under consideration, according to BSWML officials. Greater Bengaluru Authority (GBA) Chief Commissioner M Maheshwar Rao, during his inspection of waste processing plants at Seegehalli, Kannahalli and others, had directed officials to clear legacy waste. He instructed that it be reprocessed using a trommel machine and the refuse-derived fuel (RFD) waste be sent to a power generation unit at Bidadi. The inert waste produced should be sent to the designated landfill, said a top BSWML official. It is estimated that Bengaluru has over one crore tonnes of legacy waste in its landfills. To clear legacy waste by way of bioremediation, BSWML has invited tenders and soon work will begin. In the process of bioremediation, we get compost and RFD, the official said.

Bihar kids need to dream of startups, not hands up: PM Modi
PATNA: Ahead of the second phase of the Bihar assembly polls, Prime Minister Narendra Modi said on Saturday that the people of Bihar do not want a katta sarkaar. I shudder to hear that the RJD, in its campaign, is getting children to say that they wish to become rangdaar (street bully) when they grow up, he said at a poll rally in Sitamarhi. People do not want a regime that would put a katta on their heads and ask them to hold their hands up. People do not want hands up, but startup, which the NDA will facilitate. The NDA shuns katta and promotes school bags, computers, cricket bats and hockey sticks, he added. The Prime Minister, who has popularised katta as a metaphor for the RJDs alleged high-handedness, charged the main opposition party with having pointed a country-made, unlicensed pistol at the head of the Congress when the ally was refusing to back Tejashwi Yadav as the chief ministerial candidate. Speaking on record voter turnout in the first phase of the assembly election, Modi said that it was like a 65-volt jhatka to jungle raj. They are getting sleepless nights, he added, asserting that people of Bihar have sent a strong message against corruption, misgovernance, and lawlessness that once plagued the state. The PM launched a veiled attack on Congress leader Rahul Gandhi over his recent fishing attempt in Begusarai during his election trail by stating that Bihar ki election mein doobne ki practice kar rahe hain. He said that some people were practising diving in ponds in the state at a time when Bihars fishery sector had grown under the NDA government. PM Modi in his election rallies had several times pointed out how Bihars fish farming had grown after the installation of the NDA government as earlier Bihar had to depend on other states for fish but now it was supplying fish to them. Along with Rahul Gandhi, VIP chief Mukesh Sahani, who has a good support base among fishing community, also participated in the fish-catching exercise. Mallah community constitutes 2.6% of Bihars population as per the 2023 caste survey. In Bettiah (district headquarters of West Champaran), Modi claimed that Bettiah had witnessed the most terrifying form of RJD and Congresss jungle raj. These jungle raj politicians have turned Champaran, once known for its history of Satyagraha, into a stronghold for thugs and bandits, he said. I had started my campaign by visiting the birthplace of Bharat Ratna Karpoori Thakur, and today I am bringing it to a close at the land where Bapu Gandhi transformed into the Mahatma, said Modi, recalling his first rally at Samastipur. My campaign ends today but canvassing will continue tomorrow. But voters job begins on the day of polling. I will come again for the swearing-in of an NDA government, the Prime Minister said.

Bengaluru woman speaks out after alleged harassment by bike taxi driver
A woman in Bengaluru has shared a distressing experience of alleged harassment by a Rapido bike taxi driver during a ride in the citys central area on Thursday evening. The incident, reportedly on November 6, came to public attention after the woman detailed her experience and shared a video on Instagram. Her post prompted responses from both the Bengaluru City Police and Rapido, and she has since disabled comments on her post. According to the woman, she had booked a ride from Church Street to her paying guest accommodation when the driver allegedly touched her inappropriately. While returning to my PG from Church Street on a Rapido ride, the captain tried to grab my legs while riding. It happened so suddenly that I couldnt even process it, let alone record it, she wrote. She added that when she asked the driver to stop, he did not, leaving her feeling terrified and unsafe. She described being unable to stop the bike herself, as she was unfamiliar with the area. By the time we reached my destination, I was shivering and in tears, she said. A passerby noticed her distress and intervened. A kind man asked what happened. When I told him, he confronted the captain. The captain apologised and said he wouldnt do it again, but as he left, he pointed his finger at me in a way that made me feel even more unsafe, she added. The woman shared her story to raise awareness and encourage vigilance. No woman should have to go through something like this, not in a cab, not on a bike, not anywhere. Please stay alert, trust your instincts, and dont stay silent, she wrote. The Bengaluru City Police reached out to the woman for details in the comment section of the post, including the location and her contact information, to initiate an investigation. Rapido responded, saying, We are concerned to learn about the captains inappropriate conduct during your recent ride. Your safety and comfort remain our top priorities. Kindly allow us some time to investigate the matter in detail. She later posted an update , saying she had filed a formal complaint with the Bengaluru City Police. We will go get the footage where he actually grabbed my leg, twice, and where he wasnt just resting his elbow, she wrote. The incident has sparked debate online. Some commenters questioned the nature of the contact, suggesting he may have merely rested his elbows on her knees. Others defended her, highlighting that any unwanted touch from a stranger is non-consensual and unacceptable, and emphasised the importance of believing survivors. She described these reactions as heartbreaking. View this post on Instagram

Prime Minister Narendra Modi on Saturday said India is moving fast on the path of development, as he flagged off four new Vande Bharat Express trains from the Banaras railway station in Varanasi, his Lok Sabha constituency. Emphasising that infrastructure is a major factor in the economic growth of developed countries around the world, the prime minister said, In every nation that has achieved major progress, the driving force behind it has been infrastructure development. Infrastructure is not just about big bridges and highways. Whenever such systems are developed anywhere, it sparks the overall development of that region. With so many Vande Bharat trains running and flights arriving from countries across the world, all these developments are now linked to growth. Today, India is also moving rapidly on this path, he said. PM Modi said high-speed trains like Vande Bharat are laying the foundation for a ew generation of Indian Railways. Trains like Vande Bharat, Namo Bharat and Amrit Bharat are laying the foundation of a new generation of Indian Railways. Vande Bharat is a train of Indians, built by Indians for Indians, of which every Indian is proud, he said. He claimed that foreign travellers are amazed by these trains adding that more than 160 Vande Bharat Express trains are now operational in the country. Modi further said that spiritual tourism has become a major source of income and has ushered in development in Uttar Pradesh. In our country, pilgrimage has for centuries been considered a medium of national consciousness. These journeys are not merely routes for darshan of deities, but a sacred tradition that connects the soul of India, Modi said. Places like Prayagraj, Ayodhya, Haridwar, Chitrakoot and Kurukshetra are the centres of our spiritual beliefs, he said. Today, as these sacred destinations are being connected through the Vande Bharat network, it is also linking India's culture, faith and development. This is an important step towards making symbols of India's heritage a representation of national growth, he said. These journeys also have an economic aspect, which is often not discussed. Over the past 11 years, the development work done in Uttar Pradesh has elevated pilgrimage tourism to a new level, the PM said. Last year, more than 11 crore devotees came to Kashi for Baba Vishwanath's darshan, and since the construction of the Ram Temple, over 6 crore people have visited Ayodhya to seek the blessings of Ram Lalla. These devotees have contributed thousands of crores of rupees to Uttar Pradesh's economy and provided steady income to hotel owners, transport operators, local artists and boatmen, he said. This has created new opportunities for the youth, Modi said. Hundreds of young people in Varanasi are now starting new ventures, from transport to local businesses. Because of all this, the doors of prosperity are opening in Kashi and across Uttar Pradesh, he said. To realise the dream of a 'Viksit Bharat' (Developed India) from a 'Viksit Kashi', numerous infrastructure projects are being undertaken here, Modi said. Today, Kashi is experiencing continuous expansion, development and qualitative improvement, with facilities ranging from good hospitals, good roads, gas pipelines, and internet connectivity, he said. Work on the ropeway is progressing rapidly, he said. Our effort is to make visiting Varanasi, staying in Varanasi and enjoying the amenities of Varanasi a special experience for everyone, he added. Modi said the government is also striving to improve health services in Varanasi. He said 10-11 years ago, BHU hospital was the only option for people seeking treatment for serious illnesses. Due to the large number of patients, one could not get treatment even after waiting overnight. For serious illnesses like cancer, people would sell their land and farms, and travel to Mumbai for treatment. Today, our government has worked to alleviate all these concerns of the people of Kashi. Mahamana cancer hospital for cancer, Sankara Netralaya for eye treatment, the state-of-the-art trauma centre at BHU, and the divisional hospital at Shatabdi Chikitsalaya, Pandeypur, have all become a boon for Kashi, Purvanchal, and the surrounding states, he said. Due to Ayushman Bharat and Janaushadhi Kendras in these hospitals, millions of poor people are saving crores of rupees. Kashi has become known as the health capital of this entire region, the prime minister said. Railway Minister Ashwini Vaishnaw and Uttar Pradesh Chief Minister Yogi Adityanath also attended the event. The new Vande Bharat Express trains will operate on Banaras-Khajuraho, Lucknow-Saharanpur, Firozpur-Delhi and Ernakulam-Bengaluru routes. The semi-high-speed trains will significantly reduce travel time between major stations, enhance regional mobility, promote tourism and support economic activity across the country, according to an official statement. The Banaras-Khajuraho Vande Bharat Express will connect prominent cultural and religious destinations, including Varanasi, Prayagraj and Chitrakoot, officials said. (With inputs from PTI)

Senegal drug kingpin held in Delhi brought to Tiruvallur
CHENNAI: The Tiruvallur district police have arrested a 43-year-old foreign national, identified as Bende, a native of Senegal, who allegedly headed a major inter-state synthetic drug cartel. He was arrested from an apartment in Delhi after 10 days of surveillance and brought to Tiruvallur on a transit warrant on Thursday. Multiple mobile phones containing data on drug networks in Tamil Nadu, Karnataka, Maharashtra, Gujarat, and the North East were seized from him. The investigation began on October 14 after the Manavalanagar police in Tiruvallur district caught two men with 55 grams of methamphetamine. Further leads led to the arrest of Chennai-based dance studio owner and Instagram influencer Sibiraj (22) on October 23 with 54 grams of meth. Investigations revealed that the cartel, run by Bende, operated via internet apps and bank accounts spread across West Bengal, Nagaland, and Mizoram. GPS locations were shared with buyers for pick-up. Ten more people, including two foreign nationals from Nigeria and DR Congo, were arrested in connection with the racket. The police said the gang used duplicate identities and front businesses to conceal their operations. Further investigation is underway.
PM Modi Flags Off 4 Vande Bharat Trains from Varanasi
The Banaras-Khajuraho Vande Bharat will connect prominent cultural and religious destinations including Varanasi, Prayagraj and Chitrakoot
Sometimes its bliss, just to be able to schmooze around, have extended phone conversations with friends, catch up on ones reading and scroll through all the poppycock and balderdash that one encounters on Instagram. Apparently, the gospel-truth is generated there! So, in between reels of aged women (and men) shaking their sagging tushies vigorously and passing it off as dance, one also allegedly hears snippets of breaking news! Yes, the world is agog with the developments in the mighty US of A, what with their penchant for orange now turning to brown and different sects either extolling or warning us mere mortals of what is in store for us. Right now, the normal tax-paying folks are browned off and jaded when it comes to their leaders and their empty promises and hollow agendas. We all know who runs the countries worldwide, and they dont call them billionaires for nothing! Bengaluru, according to (highly reliable) Instagram reports, is supposed to be one of the three fastest-developing cities in the world. Apparently, everyone wants to move here! The traffic and the infrastructure suck, and according to one powerful man in white, if you dont like it, leave! Well, I must admit, wherever there is an exploding two wheeler population, the traffic situation becomes haywire. The traffic situation is imploding in bigger cities like Mumbai and Delhi too, but the only difference is their leaders are doing something about the upkeep of roads, building new flyovers and underpasses (the new ocean-link road in Mumbai is a dream), but in Namma Ooru we have fabulous weather to bank on, right? Many OG Bengalureans are quite miffed about the nothernisation of Namma Ooru. One famous actor and playwright was strongly opposed to the caricature that the Bengalureans have been attached to. Phrases like swalpa adjust madi and good weather! But we cant and must not escape the way we are perceived. As laidback and adjusting individuals. Whereas it speaks volumes for our temperament, we have top Fortune 500 companies investing in our city and without doubt, we are the leading tech-hub for the world. But not getting our act together and concentrating more on who is speaking in the native language better is going to be ultimately disastrous for our beautiful city. We need to hold our leaders and ourselves accountable. Let us not forget we are a city of immigrants (hint, hint!). Talking about immigrants, there are a lot of us who have adopted this charming city as home. Along with the bad (speaking loudly and not learning the local language), we bring our charm, intellect and customs to this city. Now, our luru is multi-cultural, noisy and vibrant! A multi-cultural gaggle of ladies met at Rosamarino, a beautiful new Italian pizzeria set up by the uber-talented Abhijit and Shruti Saha (also immigrants), and a whole bunch of multicultural ladies, teachers, technocrats, entrepreneurs, home chefs and sportswomen spent a wonderful afternoon, eating a fantastic array of Italian food, discussing politics, food, children and a variety of interesting topics. It was fantastic and soul-lifting to be surrounded by so much goodwill and laughter. For me, at this stage in my life, this is what I want: true friendships, meaningful conversations and genuine bonding. As Michael Jackson would have said, It doesnt matter if youre black or white!

AHMEDABAD: Reeling under one of the worst unseasonal rain spells in two decades, Gujarats farmers have suffered massive crop devastation across 42 lakh hectares and 16,000 villages. On Friday, Chief Minister Bhupendra Patel announced a Rs 10,000-crore relief package coupled with government procurement of groundnut, moong, urad, and soybean worth Rs 15,000 crore from November 9, promising that no farmer will be left without help. Gujarats farmlands, already scarred by erratic monsoon patterns, have now been battered by unseasonal rains that struck at the end of October, which the Chief Minister described as the kind Gujarat has not seen in two decades. The deluge drenched 41 lakh hectares of cultivated land, crippling the livelihoods of over 17 lakh farmers across 16,387 villages. As assessment reports poured in, the figures told a grim story -- over 33% crop loss in nearly 31 lakh hectares, translating to an estimated Rs 1,574 crore blow to the agrarian economy. The Saurashtra belt emerged as ground zero, where 80% of the total state damage occurred. Out of 37.71 lakh hectares sown, 33.53 lakh hectares were hit, devastating 12.65 lakh farmers and causing Rs 1,218 crore in losses. The Mid-East zone followed with 52.5% of crops damaged, while South Gujarat reported 79% cultivation loss, and North Gujarat too saw heavy impact across 4.14 lakh hectares. Seeing the scale of disaster firsthand, the Chief Minister swiftly convened an emergency high-level meeting with officials from the agriculture, revenue, and finance departments. Chairing the meet himself, Patel greenlit a massive Rs 10,000-crore relief and assistance package, calling it a duty towards the sons of the soil who feed us all. Unseasonal rains of a kind unseen in the last two decades have caused huge crop losses in multiple districts, the Chief Minister said in his statement on Friday. I and my fellow ministers visited the affected districts, spoke directly to the farmers, and felt their pain. Understanding their struggle, the state government stands shoulder to shoulder with them with full sympathy. Keeping in mind their hardship, I am announcing a relief package of about Rs 10,000 crore. Alongside, we will begin procurement of groundnut, moong, urad, and soybean worth over Rs 15,000 crore at support prices from November 9, Patel added, assuring that the government was, is, and will always be with our farmers. Following Patels directive, hundreds of agricultural survey teams fanned out across the districts, covering 70% of the damaged area so far. The CM personally ordered that no farmer should be left without assistance and that all relief formalities be expedited this week. This package comes as Gujarats second major farm relief intervention in just three months, following a Rs 947-crore payout in August-September for flood-affected talukas in Kutch, Banaskantha, Patan, and Junagadh. That earlier crisis had already signaled the states growing vulnerability to climate-linked agrarian distress and this latest spell has only deepened the challenge. From drought to deluge, Gujarats farmers have borne the full brunt of climate volatility this year. But with the state government now rolling out an unprecedented twin package of Rs 10,000 crore in direct relief and Rs 15,000 crore in crop procurement, the CM has sent a clear message: In every calamity, the farmer will not stand alone.
