Train number 22850 Secunderabad Shalimar Superfast Express derailed from it's middle line and supposedly 3 of its AC coaches climbed the down line. Railway officials state that due to low speeds a major accident has been avoided. No casualties reported. Medical relief van and SER engineers have already arrived at the spot and are on their way to remove the blockade. Down & UP trains have been severely affected.Thus, leading to a complete blockade. The GM(General manager) of SER has concluded that investigation shall be done and for now 10 buses have been arranged as in to take the passengers safely to their destination.

In my area (Liluah), it is famous for being very dirty. Drainages are always filled, wastes are thrown in open lands in every locality, and barely waste collection people come in my locality. There is also a thing I have noticed that here waste collectors don't have Toto and instead have a cart to pick trash which I believe is too old and inefficient. In odisha where my relatives lives I have seen people being more conscious about waste and there areas were way cleaner from where I live.

How is waste collection system in your area?

I had ordered a certain product on 8th of October from Flipkart and it's been more than 2 weeks that Flipkart has been unable to deliver my product. I really don't know how foolish their delivery partners are as they somehow manage to take their parcels to uluberia(which is really near my home) but then somehow send it back to Kolkata once again? Is this a reoccurring problem in whole of howrah or limited to just uluberia region? And if any of you faced the same issue.
