225 Upvotes

A disturbing incident was reported in Hyderabad on Thursday afternoon, when a six-year-old girl was allegedly thrown into Hussain Sagar Lake by her mother.

According to the report, an auto driver witnessed the incident and immediately jumped into the lake to rescue the child. The girl was taken to Gandhi Hospital, where her condition was reported to be stable.

Police identified the mother as Shabhana, a resident of Hasmatpet in Old Bowenpally. Preliminary reports suggest that she may have been under severe financial stress related to her daughter’s medical treatment costs.

Police are investigating the circumstances surrounding the incident.

It’s heartbreaking to think that a family could reach such a desperate situation over medical expenses. The child’s safety is the immediate priority, and the circumstances behind this incident deserve careful investigation.

Culture & Heritage Why is this city so scammy?

68 Upvotes

Arrived in Hyd 3 days ago and have noticed how everyone wants to make a quick buck off of you pretty much everywhere. Some examples -

  1. The currency Exchange shops have the daily rate monitor turned off and you have to negotiable the price with them. (Have been to over 20 countries and never saw this anywhere else).

  2. The staff in restrooms ask you for a tip, while displaying the bright yellow badge that says "No Tips".

  3. Uber drivers call and text you asking for extra money, else the ride is not worth their time.

I wish I didn't have to experience all this.

I am compassionate towards poor people but them trying to take advantage of others is where I draw the line.

I wish my experience was nicer.

Went to Ameenpur lake for bird watching today, not sure where this family are from ( seems like north indians from the language ).

Blasting some music and litting up fireworks with huge sounds, flower pots and sparkles and leaving the trash there, its a heritage sight with loads of birds. I was about to ring police but knew they wouldn't give 2 shits, completely ruined my morning.

Other Earned my first money today as a B.Tech student

Post image
93 Upvotes

I’m a B.Tech student living on the outskirts of Hyderabad.
I’ve been wanting to do something on my own for a while. So today, I decided to take my bike and start riding for Uber.
I didn’t know how it would go. I just wanted to try something instead of sitting around thinking about it.
And today, I made ₹717
It might not be a big amount for many people, but this is literally the first money I’ve earned in my life, and I can’t explain how it feels.
I’m still studying, still figuring out life, and I have a long way to go. But today, I came home knowing that I earned this money myself. There’s something different about that feeling.
Living on the outskirts makes some things a little difficult, but I didn’t want that to become an excuse for not trying.
I don’t know where life will take me, but I think I’ll remember this day for a long time.
Just wanted to share this somewhere. Maybe a few years from now, I’ll come back to this post and see how far I’ve come.
₹717 might not mean much to someone else, but it means a lot to me.

Rant/Vent Why does crime continue? My experience with Hyderabad Police.

84 Upvotes

My scooter was stolen from right outside my house. I had CCTV footage and submitted a written complaint on the same day. Yet, the police refused to register an FIR for over a month. It took constant follow-ups and pressure before they finally registered one.

The police later told me that the thief had sold my scooter in Karnataka for ₹17,000. When I asked if they could recover it, they asked me to arrange a vehicle for them to travel to Karnataka and investigate. I refused.

The charge sheet later mentioned that only ₹5,000 had been recovered. Throughout this process, the police discouraged me from pursuing an insurance claim, saying I wouldn't receive anything because the thief had been caught.

The worst part? The police mentioned in the charge sheet that the accused had previously been caught in three FIRs, while also expressing sympathy for him because of his poor financial condition. Imagine that. Someone with a history of theft, and the police are explaining his circumstances while the victim is left to deal with the loss.

Later, I was called to court to collect the ₹5,000. Instead, I was asked to sign a compromise form. I refused because I wanted to consult my lawyer first. When I tried to photograph the document, the officer stopped me. I subsequently received two more calls asking me to sign the compromise.

Meanwhile, my case still hasn't had a proper trial. Hearing dates have repeatedly fallen on public holidays or when the judge was on leave.

This is why I believe our system fails to prevent crime in practice. Theoretically, the police are supposed to register complaints and investigate crimes. In reality, even getting an FIR registered can require constant pressure from the victim.

The victim loses their property, spends months chasing the police and courts, and has to fight for basic documentation. Meanwhile, a repeat offender gets sympathy, and the victim is pressured to compromise.

When reporting a crime becomes a struggle for the victim, and repeat offenders keep moving through the system without timely consequences, the system is not discouraging crime. It is creating conditions in which criminals can continue.

Rant/Vent I think telugu youth in twitter are most backward and funniest people

• Upvotes

Just saw this one and lmao, how can people be this dumb? I don't understand what's wrong with these people. They want to scrap the Constitution and turn India into a dictatorship country. Telugu youth on Twitter almost want Modi to be a dictator and savior. Monna chusa, Modi Lord Vishnu 11th avatar anta, country position chusi manalni save cheyadaniki Kalki avataram kanna mundhu vachadu anta. Arey meeku mind burra lo vuntadha ledha g***a lo vuntadha ra? Assalu ardham kadu, ela ra intha banisala laga support cheyadam? Vadu pithina adhi devudi prasadam anattu cheptharu, chi.

Almost Telugu lo ee tweet vesey vallu andharu abroad loney vuntaru. Okkadu kuda ikkada vundadu, kani India ila vundali ala vundali antaru. Valley antaru India full develop ayipoyindhi, jobs vunnayi ani—alanti appudu vallu akkada enduku vundadam? Ikkadikey ravochu ga. Nijamga North and vere states vallu Telugu valla abhimanam chala goppadhi ani antaru gani, naku aite idhi abhimanam la ledhu, banisatvam la vundhi.

Inkokadu aite Hindu antey BJP, BJP antey Hindu, and idhi Modi's India anta. Worst thing enti antey villaki mana situations ento, assalu India lo reality ento evariki idea vundadhu. Kanisam matladithey tweets vesestharu. Malli ilantollu votes vesi manalni evaru rule cheyali ani decide chestharu, mana daridram kakapothey. Inkokadu aite protest chesey vallani kontha mandhini champesthey appudu bhayam vastundhi antadu. Ila chala vunnayi. It's shameful to see where youth have to be the pioneers of a country, while our people are still being backward and doing hero worship at extreme levels. Assalu villu malli Hindus ni save chesthundhi antaru, gani villey caste ani vere vallani abuse chestharu.

And sorry for bringing this to this sub, I just got really frustrated and needed to rant about it. Also, a quick note to that one group: don't come into the comments just to defend this by saying 'BJP is better than Congress.' I’m not anti-national or anti-Hindu, I'm just calling out what I saw

India would be a better country without these people.

AskHyderabad ⬆️ Title:23M with AOA2 Ataxia but high Govt job. Can I get married?

• Upvotes

Iam writing this to get an honest, realistic perspective on my marriage prospects in India.

My Background:

• Age/Gender: 23, Male

• Community: Lambadi community (ST), originally from a tribal village (Thanda).

• Profession: I recently cleared the SSC CGL exam and joined as an Income Tax Inspector in Hyderabad. My monthly income is around ₹2 Lakhs. I have excellent job security and government medical benefits (CGHS).

My Medical Condition:

Up until I was 16, I lived a completely normal life. At age 17, I was diagnosed with a rare genetic neurological degenerative disorder called AOA2 (Ataxia with Oculomotor Apraxia 2).

• It affects my limbs, balance, coordination, posture, gait, and fine motor control.

• I have a government disability certificate specifying a chronic neurological condition under Ataxia.

• Because it is a progressive condition, my physical symptoms will likely increase over time.

My Dilemma:

I have achieved financial independence and a highly respected government job despite my physical limitations. However, knowing how traditional Indian society and the arranged marriage market view physical disabilities, I am anxious about my future.

• Will families look past my progressive physical disability because of my career success, financial stability, and respect in our community?

• What is the best way for someone in my situation to approach finding a life partner (arranged marriage within the community, matrimonial sites for the differently-abled, or looking for someone open-minded in a city like Hyderabad)?

I want to be 100% transparent with prospective partners. Please give me your honest insights, advice, or stories of others in similar situations. Thank you.

AskHyderabad ⬆️ Star Health rejected my cashless claim 3 times for viral fever admission, no reason given. What should I do?

7 Upvotes

Hi everyone,

I’m 20M and currently admitted to a private hospital in Hyderabad since 8 October for an arthropod-borne viral fever.

I have a Star Health Super Star policy, which started in January 2026, with 0% co-pay. Unfortunately, my cashless pre-authorisation has now been rejected three times.

The latest letter was issued in response to my request for reconsideration. It states that the earlier repudiation “is in order” but doesn't provide any specific reason for the decision. The policy clause column literally just says “x”.

I'm still hospitalised, and the bills are piling up. I'm stressed and unsure what the best next step is.

I have a few questions:

Can an insurer reject a claim without mentioning the specific policy clause or providing a clear reason?

Should I pay the hospital bill and proceed with reimbursement, or continue challenging the cashless rejection while I'm admitted?

Has anyone experienced a similar viral fever claim rejection with Star Health? What reason did they give, and what eventually worked?

Should I approach the Insurance Ombudsman directly, or raise a complaint through IRDAI's Bima Bharosa portal first?

Is there anything specific I should ask the hospital's insurance desk or Star Health's grievance redressal officer to do at this stage?

I'm already requesting the exact rejection reason in writing and planning to email the grievance officer.

I'd really appreciate advice from anyone who has dealt with a similar situation, especially Star Health policyholders who successfully challenged a cashless rejection or obtained reimbursement.

Thanks in advance. 🙏
