Some practical advice regarding naming conventions for children, based on the administrative challenges posed by modern identification systems both at a national and international level.

While naming your children, I strongly recommend avoiding the use of initials before, after, or in the middle of the name. Official documents such as PAN cards and passports generally do not accept initials. While Aadhaar technically allows them, the PAN card must match the Aadhaar for various financial processes, including opening online demat accounts and creating mutual fund folios.

The current administrative trend suggests a preference for the "FIRSTNAME SURNAME" format. To ensure your child's future life is simpler—especially if they plan to study or work abroad or invest in financial instruments—it is best to ensure their name is consistent across their birth certificate, Aadhaar, SSLC certificate, passport and all other documents in this standard format.

While it is unfortunate that global and national systems are not always receptive to diverse naming conventions, maintaining a homogenous name format will ultimately make your child's life much easier.

If your child is studying in 10th grade or lower, name change is very easy. After SSLC certificate is issued, it's very hard to change after that.

Hello all,

I am extremely disappointed and felt helpless today due to a road rage incident. We are driving near Toyota showroom near Avalahalli main road. We were driving in a narrow lane that joins to the main road. Since our car is safari and we have to take a left turn, we were calculating and in the meantime another red swift car came from the other road and he got down the car and started abusing us for not taking more left to go to the road. NO TOUCHING OR NO PROBLEM FOR OTHER DRIVERS ALSO. He just wanted to start a fight and started shouting, threatening that locals are very dangerous here and they will do anything to us. We are very afraid of the situation and felt very humiliated by the same. He used absolutely bad words, threatened to harm us all for nothing. He wanted us to take more left. I wanted to take action on him as it was something which should not be repeated to others. I felt very unsafe as a woman and this happened at 7:50PM.

I have their images but i dont want to post here. But anyone who has contacts and who can help us, please dm me.

Thanks in advance

I genuinely wish people would slow down a bit—especially on busy roads and at signals. The rush to reach somewhere a few minutes early just isn’t worth the risk to life.

Why is everyone in such a hurry all the time? No job is going to fire you for being a minute late—and if it might, just start a little earlier. Trying to save 10 seconds isn’t worth putting yourself or others in danger.

2025 B.Tech CSE Passout.

Joined one of the Big 4's as an SAP Analyst.

I was trained in CPI (Middle-wear module of SAP in a nutshell) and later I got an option to work as a PMO in one of the projects.

Job is really hectic and my boss is really scary.

I have been working everyday atleast till 7:30 to 8 PM in office, then I come back to my accommodation and work again till 10-11 PM.

He keeps scolding me and I'm soo tired.

I'm not soo good technically and now, after the project kicks off, he wants me to transition to Junior Java Developer. When I told him that I'm bad at it, he is giving me an option to be released from the project.

I am really bad at programming, I somehow survived college my just memorizing code or writing some random things.

This is predominantly a support project where this certain software is used by many other clients, so we need to close the tickets from all these clients and their issues coming from this software.

Can I survive? should I just go to the bench. and try for something else.

I need to give an answer by tomorrow. I really need an understanding and your help as to how I go by. Just your thoughts and any recommendations.

First of all, it costs you a leg and an arm to book a cab from airport to anywhere. Then there are these long waiting lines and those independent taxi drivers trying to club in 3 people together. There is no regulation or segregation, the independent drivers will someday start lifting the customers from the airport forcefully.

Delhi airport is nothing like this, neither does it take so long to get a ride!

Hi, I own a 3 BHK apartment, it’s not in Bangalore but in Karnataka.

The building owners association isn’t allowing me to rent out the apartment to students based on illogical claims.

I spoke to the president (65+ year old man) of the association and this is what he told me :

1. All students do drugs

2. Female students are the worse than male students and consume more drugs.

3. He doesn’t like seeing women wearing clothing that don’t align with his values.

4. He also commented that when they wear such clothes and get down from an auto he is able to see “everything”

5. He won’t be able to keep a tab on what they do everyday.

6. He doesn’t care if I’m not able to rent my apartment if the right kind of (family) tenant doesn’t come through.

7. He told me I should sell the apartment instead, even if it’s below the market value.

None of these points have been given to me in writing nor have I seen the bye-laws of the association till date.

What should I do in this regard? I don’t want to rent the apartment out to families as I wouldn’t get more than 25K vs for students who are willing to pay upwards of 45k. On top of that I intend to sell the apartment in the near future and giving it out to students (for 6 months) helps me in keeping my options open.

The president of the association is a business man in the town and well connected along with a couple of his stooges who reside in the same building with their respective families.

As an owner what authority do I have? Can someone out there please guide with the process of dealing with such thugs in the building association? Or should bow down and accept their rules?

Legally speaking, can the owners association stamp any kind of rule and authority to trespass on the flat owners rights?

Please provide information only if you have reliable information about them, as it is for my patients.
