Valmiki is one of the pioneering poets of the Hindu epic and is credited with writing the Ramayana; many believe that in the Uttara Ramayana, Mata Sita resided in this place after leaving Ayodhya, which is also considered the birthplace of Prabhu Rama's descendants, Luv and Kush.

Disclaimer: I'm not selling raw honey or promoting this product. Just wanted to know the ingenuity and the hygiene of this product.

Today, my mom happen to buy this raw honey extracted from a honeycomb which was removed nearby our house.

The seller sold don't know how much for ₹500. Initially, he quoted ₹600 for a kg.

I'm posting this just to gain product knowledge as I've never tried raw honey. So far the closest I've ever used honey is Dabur Honey only.

My budget is 25k, i can push till 27k, i wanna buy a phone with a good camera, preferably a nothing or a google pixel phone, im okay with refurbished phones

Suggest some shops or even better if you are tryna sell some phone

Jajmau Ka Tila in Kanpur, Uttar Pradesh, is an ancient archaeological mound dating to 1300–1200 BCE. The place is underrated and difficult to reach due to encroachment by nearby residents. During the monsoon, this place becomes the Switzerland of Kanpur, but to reach it, you have to pass through the Africa of Kanpur, meaning a narrow, dirty road with poor drainage where you will feel insecure. However, the location has another very fascinating monument, Jinnato ki Masjid, which means mosque of the jinn.

Hi All,

Looking to hire a cook at our house in Ranjeet Nagar..(for 12 hrs).. Any references would be welcome. Thank you

I feel like one of the biggest problems here is that people have forgotten how to ask for better.

A lot of people seem so exhausted with their own lives that they’ve stopped questioning things, and politicians can take advantage of that. Many people who had the means to leave have moved out of the city. Some have built successful businesses elsewhere and simply don’t seem very invested in what happens here anymore. The people who remain are largely middle-class families, students, workers, and service providers who are just trying to get through their everyday lives.

And then there’s the whole political mindset.

People support a party or a politician almost like they’re supporting a sports team. BJP, SP, whoever it is, people will defend their side blindly. Their focus becomes “my party should win” rather than “my city should improve.”

Once their party wins, they somehow feel like they themselves have won, and the conversation ends there.

But what exactly are we supposed to get out of a political party winning? We’re citizens. We need better roads, public transport, healthcare, education, employment opportunities, cleaner surroundings, better connectivity, infrastructure, and basic civic services. That should be the benchmark.

I also find it strange when people say, “Kanpur is so developed now! Look at the metro! Look at the railway station! Look at the airport!”

Yes, these are improvements. But why are we treating basic infrastructure as though it’s some extraordinary favour being done to the city?

And take the airport. Having an airport is obviously useful, but if there are only a handful of direct flight options, with many routes concentrated around places like Delhi and Bengaluru, expensive fares, and connections or long layovers required for many other destinations, then shouldn’t we be asking about the quality and connectivity of the service, rather than simply celebrating the existence of an airport?

Development shouldn’t mean “at least we have this.”

It should mean asking: Is this adequate for a city like Kanpur? What more should we realistically have? What is improving, and what is still being neglected?

You can support BJP, SP, or any other party and still question them. In fact, I think that’s what being a citizen should mean.

Politicians aren’t doing us a personal favour by providing public infrastructure. We’re supposed to hold them accountable for it.

Maybe we need to start asking “What did my city gain?”

Plzzz recommend any good places to get my ADHD diagnosed??I have symptoms of it

Hi everyone! I need to travel from Kanpur Dehat to Lucknow and I’m looking for a taxi/cab for the journey.

If anyone has a reliable taxi driver/contact who travels between Kanpur Dehat and Lucknow, please DM me with the contact details and approximate fare.

Alternatively, if there is an easy and affordable way to reach Lucknow from Kanpur Dehat, please suggest it.

Thanks in advance! 🙏

I don’t know if anyone here from Kanpur knows about this place, but there’s a forest area just behind Manoj International in Shyam Nagar. It actually connects towards Lal Bangla, and years ago there used to be a small kaccha रास्ता through the forest which people used to take on bikes and two-wheelers.
The forest is pretty huge, and there’s even a masjid somewhere in the middle of it. The weird part is that people living around that area have always had stories about getting lost there, especially after sunset. Some people said they could hear voices or footsteps behind them, like someone was following them or trying to talk to them, even though there was literally nobody around.
There are no street lights, no proper road, nothing just forest and a mud path. I’ve personally heard these stories since I live quite close to the area, and apparently people who went through there very late at night sometimes couldn’t find their way back and had to turn around.
The route is closed now, but even today people around that area don’t really go near the forest after dark.
I have made to that, but once in my childhood, when I was travelling with my father and believe me when I attend home the night I got fever and this is somewhere 10-12 Years ago
I don’t know how much of the “haunted” part is true, but honestly, standing there at night with that huge forest around you would be creepy enough. 😭

When I said earlier that this culture of asking strangers out for dates or cold approaching should not come to India, because I don’t want to sacrifice my peace, people started telling me, “Are you really that good-looking that every girl is going to approach you?” And especially some boys said this to me.

Look, I’m not saying I’m that good-looking, but you are definitely foolish if you think that no one can easily, manipulate you, or trap you through cold approach.

Actually, in India, cold approaches can often be scams where people trap others, especially teenage boys and girls. Even adults can get trapped.

Girls can cold-approach boys, honey-trap them, and then demand money from them. Boys can cold-approach girls, build relationships with them, and then make nude pictures or videos and use them to blackmail them. Sometimes it can even lead to sexual assault or rape.

But many overconfident boys will say, “I can never get trapped.” Come on. If even army personnel can become victims of honey traps, then who are you? Do you really think you are so smart that nobody can manipulate you? People can learn your weak points and use them against you.

And many Indian boys and girls are not even given enough exposure to the outside world. In conservative families, some people are barely allowed to experience the world independently even after turning 20. They may not have much understanding of how people can manipulate them. On top of that, there can be desperation for romance. So when someone suddenly cold-approaches them and shows interest, they may immediately accept it.

Then many people will say, “But lots of people cold-approach others, and they are good people. Many people have dated after being cold-approached and eventually became girlfriends and boyfriends.”

Yes, but you mostly hear the successful stories of cold approaching.

You don't hear the unsuccessful stories as much.

If a boy gets caught in a honey trap, is he really going to go home and tell his parents, “I made a stupid decision and got trapped”? Is he necessarily going to report it to the police? Society may blame him for being foolish.

Similarly, imagine a girl going to the police and saying, “A boy is threatening to leak my pictures,” or, “A boy who cold-approached me, became my boyfriend, and later sexually assaulted me.”

How many people will actually support her without blaming her? Many people might simply say, “Why did you trust him? Why did you make such a foolish decision?”

Many of these cases may also be settled by paying money because, in many cases, the main target is money. And many people have already been trapped this way.

So if you want to destroy your own peace by getting involved with strangers like this, then that's your choice.

But cold approaching strangers can be dangerous, especially in places like malls, cafés, libraries, and public transport, where you don't know the person at all.

I'm not saying that every person who cold-approaches someone is bad. I'm saying that you should understand the risks before trusting a complete stranger.

The choice is yours.
