THIS INDEPENDENCE DAY, LET�s REDEFINE THE �BANDHAN OF RAKSHA�

Krupa Shah, an acclaimed artist, and philanthropist celebrating Raksha Bandhan and Independence Day with Mumbai Police force.





Happy Independence Day and a very Happy RakshaBandhan.

You, Me � We all are very busy in our lives. Yet, when it comes to our families, our close friends, we are always there for them. To love them. To protect them, to the best of our abilities.    

But ever wondered about a force that selflessly works to protects us, so that we can have a sound sleep! A force that safeguards our private and leisure time. A force that ensures our festivals are celebrated with much joy, without dampening our enthusiasm.

This force my friends, is the Mumbai Police Force. A force that prioritizes the safety and security of our families and friends over theirs.

While we acknowledge their work, what we generally miss is expressing our gratitude to them. Believe me, even the smallest act can do wonders. Today, I saw an opportunity in RakshaBandhan coinciding with Independence Day. I visited the brave policemen and women of South Mumbai and was delighted to tie rakhis to them. I thanked them for protecting us and had a healthy discussion on what Mumbai truly needs Independence from today�s time? 





While there are a lot of issues that need to be addressed, however, what urgently requires attention is - independence from pollution and how we can protect our environment.  

Don�t believe me? Well here are few facts�

-     Mumbai is the 4thmost polluted megacity in the world
-     9 in 10 people in Mumbai are breathing polluted air that causes various respiratory ailments
-     The pollution the rate in Mumbai this August, when measured by experts, was as high as 75.28%

Can we do anything about this? Yes, we can - both in our individual and collective capacity. Perhaps, let�s start by protecting existing trees and planting more.

Keeping this in mind, I embedded a seed to the rakhis I tied to the police force. The seed on the rakhis when planted would turn into a beautiful sampling � thus reinforcing the idea of planting more trees to reduce pollution as well as protecting our environment. 



I don�t know whether this gesture was big or not. I leave it to your wisdom. However, what made me happy was noticing the smile on the faces of these policemen and women acknowledging my gesture. Tying these seed embedded rakhis gave me an opportunity to express my gratitude for the relentless work the police force undertakes to not only protect us but also the environment.  

This is my independent India�s new resolution. What�s yours?

HAPPY RAKSHA BANDHAN AND A VERY HAPPY INDEPENDENCE DAY TO ALL.

Google Take away Android from Huawei : Birth of WAR

Be nervous if you're a Huawei customer. Google has reportedly stopped doing business with the Chinese tech company behind the P-series and Mate-series smartphones. Functionally, the revoked Android license means delayed Google updates and, for Huawei's future devices, no access to apps like Gmail or the Play Store . Here is the full story. INCIDENCE A couple of months ago probably a year, there was used between a variety of media articles that the Chinese government is forcing Huawei to implement some kind of spying devices or chips into all of there devices. For all the people who still believe that Huawei just sells the phone, that's not the case, Huawei sells a ton of the things and most of them are in the fiber networks and fiber optics or mostly broadband kind of stuff. So, the majority of networking things actually do happen on the Huawei devices. Now, although there was an investigation happen on to the Huawei and a couple of people got arrested as well but there ...

MSI Trident X - A Silent Killer | A gaming Desktop

For the past three years, MSI has really been pushing a limit. how much power can be crammed into a small case and cooled properly with their Trident lineup. Now, after making some truly small systems MSI has given us the Trident X , a much larger version but also a darn powerful one with Core i9 9900 K and RTX 2080. So let's see what are the amazing feature of this MSI Gaming Desktop. From a distance, the Trident X is a good-looking machine. I appreciate the smaller size. Although, it is unfortunate that it can't be placed on its side like previous Trident models for integration into a home theater setup. After getting closer to the Trident X , things get a little less convincing like the front USB ports and their lettering is in red but then moving around to the GPU it has come in multiple accents and moving over to the other side things get even grimmer. I appreciate that there is a tempered glass panel there but behind that it isn't even painted also the CPU airflow...
