Astrological doshas at birth and their traditional remedies
In Vedic astrology, the planetary alignment at the time of birth is believed to have a profound impact on an individual's life. Certain combinations, known as
doshas
, are thought to bring challenges or imbalances. Recognizing these
doshas
early and following traditional remedies may help minimize their negative effects and lead to a more harmonious life.
One of the most commonly known
doshas
is
Mangal Dosha
, which occurs when the planet Mars is positioned in specific houses of the birth chart. Individuals born with this
dosha
may face delays in marriage, relationship issues, or emotional conflicts.
Another significant condition is
Kaal Sarp Dosha
, which arises when all planets are placed between Rahu and Ketu. This is believed to bring hurdles in personal growth, career struggles, and mental unrest.

Similarly,
Pitru Dosha
is linked to ancestral debts or unresolved family karma, which can result in financial instability, health problems, or frequent family disputes.
Nadi Dosha
emerges during horoscope matching when both partners share the same
Nadi
—a factor important in compatibility analysis. It is said to cause complications in marital harmony and difficulties related to childbirth.
Shani Dosha
, resulting from an unfavourable placement of Saturn, often leads to slow progress in career, strained relationships, and a general sense of burden or hardship.

However, these
doshas
are not permanent obstacles. Vedic practices offer various remedies rooted in ritual, devotion, and charity. These may include performing specific
poojas
, fasting on auspicious days, reciting particular mantras, and offering donations to those in need. Acts of spiritual discipline and service are believed to ease the influence of these planetary imbalances over time.
Though astrological
doshas
may sound concerning, they are often manageable through sincere efforts and guidance from experienced practitioners. With faith and consistent practice of recommended rituals, individuals can work toward restoring balance and moving forward with greater peace and confidence.

Hospitals in Noida and Ghaziabad see uptick in patients as heatstroke, exhaustion and dehydration cases go up
Noida: As temperatures soar, hospitals across Noida and Ghaziabad have reported a staggering rise in seasonal heat-related illnesses. Doctors say that a significant increase in emergency cases of diarrhoea, vomiting, and dehydration was seen starting this week, as the mercury rose close to 45 degrees Celsius. Doctors noted that outpatient departments (OPDs) have been busier, especially during the afternoon hours, with patients experiencing classic symptoms of heat stress. Although there is no specific number available for heat stroke cases so far, some private hospitals reported heat stroke cases in the past few days. "With the heatwave, we saw a sharp rise in OPD patients with heat-related illnesses and a few heat stroke cases in our hospital itself, presenting with issues like hyperthermia, tachycardia with heart rates climbing up to 160 BPM, delirium, agitation, and severe dehydration. Although children, the elderly, and individuals with pre-existing medical conditions are more susceptible to heatwave-related illnesses, we are seeing more of the younger age group being affected, mostly males who work outdoors as labourers or in the construction industry, or those exposed to heatwaves for longer hours without proper hydration and electrolyte supplementation," said Dr Lakshika Saini, consultant, internal medicine & diabetology at Manipal Hospital in Ghaziabad. by Taboola by Taboola Sponsored Links Sponsored Links Promoted Links Promoted Links You May Like No Distractions. Just Solitaire Play Solitaire Download Undo Govt hospitals in both districts have also reported a rise in patients complaining of heat-affected symptoms. "There has been a rise in the number of patients in the past few days related to heatwaves. However, no severe cases have been seen so far like last year yet. However, as the mercury is anticipated to rise further, residents are urged to take necessary precautions," said a senior doctor at Noida district hospital. "Over the past few weeks, we observed nearly a 25–30% increase in patients presenting with heat exhaustion and dehydration. Cases are being reported particularly among outdoor workers, the elderly, and individuals with pre-existing health conditions. While the exact number varies by facility, the trend is worrying enough to warrant proactive public health messaging and precautions," said Dr Ashok Grover, senior consultant, internal medicine at Max Super Speciality Hospital in Vaishali. Symptoms of heat-related illness include a rise in core body temperature to 40 degrees Celsius or higher, along with confusion, disorientation, agitation, and in some cases, loss of consciousness. Affected individuals may also experience tachycardia, severe throbbing headache, muscle cramps, weakness, fatigue, and vomiting.

City's PM10 level breached norms every 2nd day in Feb-April: Study
Mumbai: Winter alone doesn't have the biggest chokehold on Mumbai's air quality. The levels of suspended pollutant PM10 were above the national ambient air quality standard on 49 of 89 monitored days in Feb-April this year, shows an analysis of Central Pollution Control Board's (CPCB) data. PM10 levels were above the standard of 100µg/m³ on all 28 days of Feb, according to the data analysed by Centre for Research on Energy and Clean Air. In March, 17 of 31 days recorded average levels above the safe limit. In April, four of the 30 days breached the standard. The average monthly PM10 level was 130µg/m³ in Feb, 108µg/m³ in March and 78µg/m³ in April. Deonar, where the city's largest garbage dumping ground is located, BKC, Kurla and Chakala in Andheri—all of which see dense vehicular movement—as well as Malad West were the biggest pollution hotspots (see graphic). However, levels of the microscopic PM2.5 particles, which can penetrate deep into lung passageways, remained within the 24-hour permissible limit of 60µg/m³ during the period assessed. PM10 refers to particulate matter that is 10mm or smaller in diameter—about one-seventh the width of a human hair. These tiny particles are small enough to be inhaled and can settle in lungs, causing respiratory and cardiovascular problems. by Taboola by Taboola Sponsored Links Sponsored Links Promoted Links Promoted Links You May Like 2025 Top Trending Local Enterprise Accounting Software [Click Here] Accounting ERP Click Here Undo As per air quality experts, common sources of PM10 include construction and road dust, vehicle emissions, industrial activity and burning of waste. PM10 particles can also irritate the eyes, throat and nose and are especially harmful to children, senior citizens and people with asthma or other lung conditions. In Mumbai, air quality data is recorded by 30 continuous ambient air quality monitoring stations. "Every pollution hotspot in Mumbai has a unique fingerprint. Real-time source apportionment, in addition to the proposed air quality warning and integrated decision support system for emissions for Mumbai, is crucial to identify what's causing the problem, whether it's traffic, industry, construction or waste burning. Alongside this, capacity building is essential to ensure that targeted actions are implemented effectively on the ground, with clear accountability and follow-through," said Manoj Kumar, analyst at Centre for Research on Energy and Clean Air. Bhagwan Kesbhat, founder of NGO Waatavaran Foundation and member of Mumbai Clean Air Network said, "Deteriorating air quality in Mumbai has become a growing concern for all. While PM2.5 poses serious health risks, the consistently high levels of PM10 at several locations cannot be overlooked and needs urgent attention as it also impacts respiratory health. BMC has taken steps to manage construction dust, but much more needs to be done on the ground to ensure cleaner air for citizens this winter. " He said it is crucial to identify hotspots like Deonar and study the causes for the consistently high pollution levels.

Deaths outnumber births in Sircilla as UN report flags grim population shift
1 2 Hyderabad: In a startling demographic shift, Rajanna Sircilla district recorded more deaths than births in 2021—an anomaly flagged in a recently published UN population report that draws from civil registration system (CRS) data from the census department of the Union govt. At the heart of this revelation is a haunting echo of the Covid-19 pandemic's deadly second wave, which pushed mortality numbers in Sircilla and other parts of the state to new highs. This rare reversal in population growth places Sircilla among just 49 districts in India where deaths exceeded births that year. The CRS 2021 data shows the district reported 5,130 deaths against 5,028 births, painting a stark picture of pandemic-era devastation in the region. But the report doesn't stop at Sircilla—it reveals a broader and more troubling pattern across Telangana. The state recorded a total of 2,34,425 deaths in 2021, including 1,35,725 men and 98,700 women. This indicates that nearly 40% more men than women died, a disparity seen consistently in both rural and urban areas. In urban Telangana alone, 61,553 male deaths were recorded against 46,674 female deaths, while rural regions saw a total of 1,08,327 deaths, slightly fewer than the 1,26,098 registered in urban areas. by Taboola by Taboola Sponsored Links Sponsored Links Promoted Links Promoted Links You May Like Perdagangkan CFD Emas dengan Broker Tepercaya IC Markets Mendaftar Undo Mortality in middle-aged men The data further shows that the 65–69 age group bore the highest burden, with 85,945 deaths reported, followed by 51,516 deaths among those aged 70 and above. However, the sharp rise in deaths among middle-aged groups is also noteworthy. Among 55–64 years, there were 42,349 deaths, 45–54 years: 22,423 deaths and 35–44 years: 12,184 deaths Health experts caution that the steady increase in deaths among middle-aged men signals a deeper health crisis. They point to factors such as occupational stress, financial pressures, lifestyle-related disorders, and pre-existing conditions like hypertension, diabetes, and cardiovascular disease as likely contributors to this trend of premature fatalities. Death registrations Telangana fared well in registering deaths promptly, with 75% of deaths recorded within the stipulated 21-day period. A small percentage were reported after a year. However, experts say that disparities in mortality rates across districts may reflect unequal access to healthcare facilities, especially in rural and semi-urban areas. The report has sparked calls for a deeper investigation into the socioeconomic and healthcare-related factors driving Telangana's mortality profile—particularly the disproportionate impact on men in their most productive years. As the state reflects on the pandemic's aftermath, public health researchers and policymakers are being urged to prioritise systemic health interventions and region-specific solutions to address these silent warning signs.
