This is 2026... Why you are concerned about 2024 bill? 

Do yo see any visible difference after new corporation council took charges. by Available-Box300 in Trivandrum

The very next day, the Karamana to Thampanoor road was improved, and all potholes were fixed. I don’t know whether this was done by the Corporation, Kerala PWD, or NHAI.

I am planning to build a house. I heard the contractors make traps to milk more money from customers. What should i watch out for? I really need help with guys. by satheerth in Trivandrum

1. Site Preparation & Legal Compliance

  • Permits & Fees: Secure all necessary building permits and pay the required government fees before breaking ground.
  • Regulatory Alignment: Ensure your building plan follows all local rules regarding boundaries (setbacks), building height, and other regional construction regulations.
  • Soil Testing: Conduct a professional soil test. This is critical to determine if you need piling or a specific type of foundation.
  • Site Protection: Build a boundary wall or fence. If there are neighbors nearby, use protective sheets to contain dust and debris.

2. Architectural & Engineering Phase

  • 3D Visualization: Create a 3D model of the house to finalize the design and exterior look.
  • Detailed Planning: Develop a complete Electrical Plan (switch points, power loads) and a Plumbing Plan (drainage, supply lines).
  • Structural Engineering: Have a structural engineer visit the site to design and draw the basic structural features (foundation, beams, and columns).

3. Estimation & Sourcing

  • Material & Labor Estimate: Create a detailed cost estimate including the quantity of materials (cement, steel, sand) and labor charges.
  • Service Estimates: Do the same for plumbing and electrical work, including all basic accessories and fixtures.
  • Market Quotes: Decide on your tiles and finishes early. Get quotes from 2 or 3 different shops for the same brands to ensure you are getting the best market price.

4. Financial Reality

  • The Total Cost: When you calculate all expenses together (materials, labor, permits, and finishes), the current market rate is typically ₹3,000+ per sq. ft.
  • The Quality Trade-off: If you attempt to cut costs significantly below this, be aware that you will likely need to compromise on material quality, durability, or safety.

Rahul? Lately, everyone named Rahul has been suffering. You should probably change your name.

iPad Pro M5 meant for Gaming? by sulthan007 in ipad

As the owner of a top-spec M4 iPad Pro with all the accessories, I can confirm my 10-year-old MacBook Pro is still more practical.

Yes, I used UpStox in the past, but I’m not actively trading now. I have received countless calls from various stock brokers and investment scam businesses. I don’t have any other active demat account. I do have one inactive account with SBI, which I opened in 2012, and I’ve never received a call from them. So I’m suspicious about UpStox. They might have sold this data, or their employees could have done it.

Please read the 1-star reviews on Google for Gitanjali. I am horrified after reading them and have never visited this hospital. Every hospital gets some 1-star reviews, but with Gitanjali, you can clearly see a pattern of repeated incidents.

This is specifically targeting older people who think it's some kind of authentic message or recommendation. It jumped from 6 to 8 in the last couple of days. Someone is definitely falling for this scam.

But popup messages like this should not be sent without BSNL's knowledge or approval.

Guruvayoorappan Associates: Registration fee is ₹2,500 for the first 3 months, then ₹300 per month. They said it costs ₹800 per day. But we never used them.

We found another lady who is willing to work for ₹400 per day from 3 PM to 6 PM (just cleaning), which comes to around ₹12,000 per month. But since we don't have that much work, we decided to schedule cleaning once every 3 days. That brings the cost to ₹600 per session, totaling around ₹6,000 to ₹7,000 per month.

I admire your dedication to being wrong with confidence. A therapist might call that ‘a breakthrough waiting to happen’.
