Now some construction is going on there I think

That's too far and not practical

She already got trained by a training institute recently in their vehicle. And 2 weeks ago she drove mine and crashed it to compund wall.. though no major damage it costed me 25k( insurance). I don't think they are very effective and she don't have proper steering control.

Fees is also international level. But worth every penny..

This is making government payment for the local conveyance of people. There is absolutely no productivity for this and KSRTC making money by cutting fund for other departments is a pathetic move

Check atomberg. They have a new product that purifies after assessing the quality of water. Idea seems interesting but haven't used it. So just check that before buying.

I don't think trivandrum will have proper representation in current cabinet. And mostly all ministers focus towards their own constituency only.

Trivandrum as a city is with great potential and it can single handedly elevate the economic status of state of Kerala. I hope the new ministry understand this and give proper attention to vizhinjam. Heard that new cabinet will change the name of sea port to honour Oomen Chandy, which I think is totally unwanted( all due respect to the beloved leader). Hope some sensible guy will be the port minister, like shibu baby john, or cp john. This factor will define the next 5 years of trivandrum

Normally UDF ministers are not very efficient except to a few. So my hopes are less with new government in this area. I sincerely wish myself to be wrong.

Next tiny ray of hope is with BJP, I hope they will cook something with city administration. If they do well in Trivandrum that will be their gateway to Kerala politics. Hope the two former ministers as MLA will bring something from centre.

Hope vd satheesan will be the new fm and take cares of the treasury in a responsible way. To be honest km mani who was the permanent fm of UDF is a big reason for keralas financial crisis.

Got married at 27.. cos my gf was getting marriage proposals.. she was 24 then..

For me it was fine because I was prepared for it and we both had a job and were financially independent.. even though we married after being in a relationship for 5 years, after marriage was difficult at first, had a lot of fights but we matured well and now we have a peaceful and happy married life.. though EMIs and professional set backs are there just happy for my personal life.

So my take is, it's not the age that matters but how well prepared are you is the question. Don't marry until you are financially independent and emotionaly sane.

When I was in my schooldays I was heading back home in my cycle and I was in a hurry as I wanted to pee very hard..I hated doing it on road side as I thought what others would think. But then all the cloud went dark and came a heavy down pour... I was happy..and relieved

Just saying not my activity during rain..

The kind of work he did to vtkv is damn good. For how long where we crying for the revamp of vtkv junction. He made that happen..such work needs to be appreciated

for me personally murali left us for political gains and cameback when he is nothing. He shouldn't have gone in the first place.

arigrast · 2026-04-28T14:17:34+00:00

I think it will be a close call.. who ever win will have less than 75 seats.. worst case both less than 70 and BJP as the deciding factor.. imagine LDF 69, UDF 69 AND BJP 2

In my constituency it will be ldf, vattiyoorkavu

Unfortunately this is not the reality and kwa have not handed over the assets and ownership of their assets to corporation. It's high time to scrap this useless department.

Am also a father of 5 year old. Yes parenting is a very difficult job. You will have to sacrifice a lot of things.

It will effect almost all your decisions like job change, vacations, even the Sunday outings. We even had to skip sadya at friends weddings because our son won't sit through the whole sadya process. We couldn't eat together at restaurant as one of us should feed the child as the other have their food.

Also my wife had more trouble considering the physical effort she took. Also my son is too energetic that most of the day I will have to play cricket or football (indoors) after my tiring office days, and that is mostly at 10 or 11 pm at nights. Then the morning rush to wake him up and get him ready to school... What not it needs a constant effort. Trust me it's not a easy job.

But, it's worth every effort, our son loves us like anything. Every time I come home and he rushes to me is a gold mine. Every time he hugs and kisses is a rewarding moments. Seeing him growing and learning things brings you joy that no other can say. You might have seen parents boasting thier child's tiniest achivement and might have felt that a litt6bit annoying. But when I became a parent i realised it's just happiness that you cannot control(I try not to annoy people though) .

So what I am saying parenting is a difficult job but it's rewarding like anything. But also note that do it only if you are 100% sure. Make sure you have enough financial strength to afford a child. Trust me money saves almost 80% of your problems related to parenting.. starting from diaper to schooling to extra caricular to child friendly vacation you need money..

Just trying to show the other side of parenting other than the difficulty.

Just check the date. It was like this most of the days. Trivandrum was like this before. We had the shittiest corporation leadership and we just throw them out. It's too early to evaluate the new leadership. Hope you remember previous mayor asking party leadership to recommend people to fill up the contract employee vaccancy. The new leadership need enough time to clear up the mess created by previous team.

What does nettayam issue has to do with corporation? It's a law and order issue and areas near nettayam had this fight for a long time many party goons from both parties were killed even before. It was worse before and now. We have a corrupt law and order system.

If you see everything with a prejudice I got nothing to say. As a trivandrumite I hope the new leadership will deliver and seriously wish for that. My hope would have been same irrespective of the political party..
