Skin facts you should be aware about

Having flawless  skin  is something that most  women desire. But when you live in a metropolis like Mumbai where pollution, stress and fastpaced lifestyles are inescapable, having no skin complaints is almost next to impossible. While following the cleansing, toning and moisturing routine is de rigeur, you need to do more than just that. First, however, it is imperative that you know your skin well. For instance, did you know that the outer most layer of your skin replenishes itself every month? And that the skin, which protects your skin from external injuries needs to be looked after well. This doesn't just mean applying a moisturising lotion or an aniseptic cream and slathering on some sunscreen. Healthy skin also has a lot to do with what you eat and drink. Which is why ensure that you pile your plate with plenty of fresh fruit and green, leafy vegetables. When it comes to liquids, excessive caffeine and alcohol can leave your skin dull and lifeless with lots of creases.

Why is Indian army deploying tanks in Ladakh, close to Indo-China border? What's the strategy?

First understand what kind of situation army is facing there, unlike Pakistan’s border on China border also known as “McMohan” line or LAC we dont have any visible line to distinguish nations territory, Indians considering china as a threat but there is a totally different picture on the border, sometimes they came to our territory sometimes we goes in their, the media wont show you the badass side of our forces. Now why we are deploying tanks to LAC its not like we are declaring war on them and we will fire on their army when they show up, deploying tanks is a strategic as well as a necessary move which should be done before but its never too late, one of the biggest reason behind it may be the training of Indian armored in those brutal environment where the air is so thin which create problem to even start the engines, Indian army is testing and deploying special lubricants and fuels to get the tanks in fighting conditions. See this, Indian Army’s T-72 in kashmir .. Indian

Krishna Janmashtami  ( Devanagari   कृष्ण जन्माष्टमी   kṛṣṇa janmāṣṭamī ), also known as  Krishnashtami ,  Saatam Aatham , Gokulashtami ,  Ashtami Rohini ,  Srikrishna Jayanti ,  Sree Jayanti  or sometimes simply as  Janmashtami , is an annual celebration of the birth of the  Hindu  deity  Krishna , the eighth  avatar  of  Vishnu . The  festival  is celebrated on the eighth day ( Ashtami ) of the  Krishna Paksha  (dark fortnight) of the month of  Bhadrapad  (August–September) in the  Hindu calendar . Rasa lila , dramatic enactments of the life of Krishna, are a special feature in regions of  Mathura and  Vrindavan , and regions following  Vaishnavism in Manipur . [3]  While the  Rasa lila  re-creates the flirtatious aspects of Krishna's youthful days, the  Dahi Handi  celebrate God's playful and mischievous side, where teams of young men form human towers to reach a high-hanging pot of curd and break it. This tradition, also known as  uriadi , is a major event in  Tamil Nad

Importance Of Raksha Bandhan

Around mid-August, Hindus all over the world celebrate Raksha bandhan. "Raksha" means protection, and "bandhan" means bound or binding. In North India, the occasion is popularly called Rakhi, Raksha Bandhan or Rakshaa Bandhan- the tying of an amulet. In ancient times a woman tied a 'rakshaa' on her husband's wrist to protect him from evil. Gradually this changed; she tied a 'rakshaa' on her brother's right wrist, to protect him from evil influence and those factors which may taint his character, and to strengthen the bond of sibling love between them. On the occasion of Rakshaa Bandhan she visits her brother's home and performs his 'pujan' by applying kumkum and rice grains on his forehead. In return the brother gives her a gift and vows to protect her too. The 'rakhadi' for rakshaa bandhan itself ranges from a coloured cotton string to exquisitely decorated balls of various sizes and materials such as fluffy cotton

Names of India

Historically the  name  India  may referred to either the region of  Greater India  and the  Indian subcontinent . Today it refers to the contemporary  Republic of India  located therein. The name is derived from the name of the Sindhu ( Indus River ) and has been in use in Greek since  Herodotus  (4th century BC). The term appeared in  Old English  as early the 9th century and reemerged in  Modern English  in the 17th century. The Republic of India has two principal short names in both official and popular English usage, each of which is historically significant,  India  and  Bharat .  The first article of the  Constitution of India  states that "India, that is Bharat, shall be a union of states," implicitly codifying  India  and  Bharat  as equally official short names for the Republic of India. A third name,  Hindustan , is a historical term for the north and northwestern subcontinent (especially during the  British India  period) that is now widely used as an alternat
