A1 KanthaswamyBalasubramaniamAdvisor and Tutor at Staff Selection Commission CombinedGraduate Level Exam (2021–present) April 3 No.They cannot. The rates are steadily falling and inflation is steadily rising. So a payment of Rs. 40,000/- is lowerin value than it was a year ago yet the interest on the same sumwill be lesser than what it was a year ago. The Future is bleak for them because they have suddenly been tossed intothe deep end of the Pool. There are no alternatives except Dubious Mutual Funds or the EquallyDubious Share Market. Even Rental Income has reduced significantly. The Solution is something must be done for Senior Citizens who retiredfrom Service before 2002. Right now there are roughly 4,47,000 Pensioners fromGovt of India, State Govts , Banks, PSUs who retired on or before 1.1.2003 These People must be given the equivalent of Old Age Security. An Additional Monthly Payment of Rs. 12,500/- to Rs. 27,500/- must bepaid to each of these persons or a Lumpsum of Rs. 5,25,000/- to Rs. 10,50,000/-whatever they prefer. This will compensate them for the Governments Mismanagement and change oftheir way of life. This is called Pension Updationand has been going on fordays and weeks and months and years now. It was proposed by MMS in 2013 but notan inch has been taken towards it. The Whole Exercise will cost Rs. 648 Billion or Rs. 64800 Crore Chicken Feed compared to how much these Halfwits blow on other things. Why am i saying this??? Because as usual CHINA did China paid $ 77 Billion in 2016, $ 83 Billion in 2017 and $ 105 Billionin 2018 - for the Old Age Population older than 75 years of age under the90/7/3 Formula. Old People got dignity. An OldMan with an average Pension Planof 863 Yuan a month now got 2275 Yuan a month. That was how China managed to bring down suffering. So what should the Senior Citizens do now that Small Savings have beenwiped out? If they can they should take the first flight out to China or USA Otherwise they have to trust their instincts and start investing in otherventures!!!!

Who gave birth towhom? A2 Sunitha Parapatla Devoteeof God Shiva and a Home maker 22h ago There is no major difference between Shiva and Vishnu Purana, the onlything is, Shiva Puranaportrays God Shiva as supreme and Vishnu Purana says Shri Vishnu is. According to Shiva Purana, Shiva is the Supreme God. Once Shri Vishnu andBrahma fought over supremacy among themselves, then Shiva manifested himselfinto a column of fire. And Vishnu and Brahma were not able to find the startand end of the column, thus reverred Shiva as Mahadev ( Lord of the Lord's ). According to Vishnu Purana,Shri Vishnu is supreme and Shiva originated from the eyebrows of Shri Vishnu, and that is why Shiva is mostly in meditativestate. It further states that Vishnu first came into being, and from his navelsprout a lotus bearing Brahma in it, and from Vishnu’s left side of the bodycame Shiva. And both the Puranas were written by Sri Veda Vyasa. Then why did hechoose to write two separate puranas for Shiva and Vishnu, when both are same,since he wanted to convey that don't try to differentiatebetween Shiva and Vishnu. There is only supreme God and that is theformless Para_Brahman. When the Para_Brahman is portrayed as Adi Yogi, then He is Shiva and whenHe is shown in the Yoga nidra and as the protector of the Universe, then He isShri Vishnu. Births exist only in the material world and not for Shiva and Vishnu. Take for instance, Ved Vyasa would have written only Shiva Purana andwrite Vishnu Purana, then how people would know about greatness of Shri Vishnuand vice versa ? Only after reading the Puranas,people will realize that Shiva and Vishnu are one and the same. To portray that Shiva and Vishnu are same, and to show the differenttasks they perform individually, Veda Vyasa has written different Puranas forboth of them. Q3 Haveyou ever gotten face mask advice from someone unexpected? A3 Bhuvana Rameshwar marriedfor three decades Updated 4h ago On 23rd May’ 21 we went for 2nd dose of vaccine. We were happy we got itpromptly as we went early. It was a relief as there was a shortage of vaccineand many of our friends were sent back by private hospitals. We both went withour masks properly worn.. Husband a shop mask and me, my dupatta (shawl). While returning my husband stopped the car to go to the supermarket. Isat in the car and was busy with the phone. I was alone in the car, car - glasshalf raised. So I removed my dupatta for some time. The road was empty with oneor two cars. As I finished my messaging my husband came back and started the carswiftly towards home. He took a right turn within a minute into the main road I didn't even realize I hadn'tworn the mask . Even before I thought about it, we were stopped by BBMPmarshals and spot fined Rs 250 by a young marshal . He wouldn't accept any excuse or explanation . I cursed myself for notwearing the mask and sulkingly gave him the money. What made it worse was that he advised me once again “madam, wear your mask regularlywhen outside”. ☹️ Q4 If you are married, how did you and your spouse determinehow much of your income to put in a joint account and how much to keep in yourown account? A4 RachnaSethI invest in relations. Updated Sun We went as per our belief… in our partner and our relationship. When we got married, both of uswere working in similar job profiles. When the question of bills came up, myhusband told me there was no need for both of us to be occupied by the monetarydemands as individuals. Wewould have one account for expenses and another for savings. The former beinghis and the latter mine. By then we had already added eachother as joint holders in our individual accounts on an EORS (either orsurvivor) basis. Our logic was simple. We were one. Didn’t make sense to havea his and her approach without reason. We didn’t find any reason. So weapproached every decision, including financial ones, as us.

O thou of beautiful face, let all theother men yet alive in our race obtain that goal which Abhimanyu of great famehath obtained. Ourselves with all our friends, wish to achieve, in this battle,that feat, the like of which, O lady, thy son, that mighty car-warrior, hathachieved without any assistance.’ Having consoled his sister and Draupadi andUttara thus, that chastiser of foes, viz., the mighty-armed (Krishna), returnedto Partha’s side.
