 - *Meet the man with 27,500 daughters* That’s what they call him – Appa. His real name? KP Ramaswamy. Owner of KPR Mills, Coimbatore. A textile baron by profession. A father figure by choice. While corporate honchos talk about employee retention, cost-cutting, and bottom lines, this man is busy transforming lives. How? By turning mill workers into graduates. By making education their stepping stone to a better life. It all started with a simple request. A young girl at his mill once told him –  "Appa, I want to study. My parents pulled me out of school because of poverty, but I want to study further." That one sentence changed everything. Instead of giving his workers just a paycheck, he decided to give them a future. He set up a full-fledged education system – right inside the mill. 📌 Four-hour classes after an eight-hour shift. 📌 Classrooms, teachers, a principal, even a yoga course. 📌 All fully funded. No strings attached. And the result? 🚀 24,536 women have earned th...

 - In today's hyper-connected world, social media has become an indispensable part of our lives. However, the ease of access and rapid dissemination of information have also led to a concerning trend: the consumption of disorganized and unscientific information. The algorithms of social media platforms prioritize engagement, often favoring sensationalized, emotionally charged content, regardless of its accuracy. This creates an echo chamber effect, where users are primarily exposed to information that confirms their existing biases, reinforcing existing beliefs and hindering critical thinking. The consequences of this unchecked consumption of information are far-reaching. Erosion of Trust:  The spread of misinformation erodes trust in credible sources of information, such as academia, journalism, and government institutions. This can have serious consequences for public health, political discourse, and societal cohesion. Polarization of Opinions:  The constant bombardment...

 When Indian billionaire Ratanji Tata was asked by the radio presenter in a telephone interview:   "Sir, what do you remember when you got the happiest in life"? Ratanji Tata said: "I have gone through four stages of happiness in life, and I finally understood the meaning of true happiness." The first stage was to accumulate wealth and resources. But at this stage I didn't get the happiness I wanted. Then came the second stage of collecting valuables and items. But I realized that the effect of this thing is also temporary and the luster of precious things does not last long. Then came the third phase of getting a big project. That was when I had 95% of the diesel supply in India and Africa. I was also the owner of the largest steel factory in India and Asia. But even here I did not get the happiness that I had imagined. The fourth step was when a friend of mine asked me to buy a wheelchair for some disabled children. About 200 children. At the behest of a frien...

 *The Rashomon Effect* The 40 year old gentleman was in deep distress. His wife was massaging his left shoulder in a bid to alleviate his pain.

The wife's hands were overflowing with the prescriptions and the Path Lab reports. Being an IT professional, he had been suffering from Neck pain quite often. Three days ago, the pain started to gradually shift to his left shoulder and arm. The patient googled his symptoms which indicated the possibility of an imminent Heart attack.
