NSS Engineering College Researchers Patent Revolutionary Method to Evaluate Athlete Muscle Composition

By
Palakkad: (KVARTHA) A team of researchers from NSS Engineering College in Palakkad has been granted a patent for a groundbreaking method to assess muscle composition. This innovative approach aims to help athletes choose the sports that best suit their unique muscle structures. Led by Professor G. Venugopal from the Instrumentation and Control Engineering department, the research also involved Professor S. Ramakrishnan from IIT Madras and scholars Remya R. Nair and Divya Sasidharan. Traditionally, determining muscle composition has relied on invasive methods like muscle biopsies, which involve extracting tissue samples. These procedures are expensive, time-consuming, and impractical for widespread use. The new method, however, offers a significant advancement by analyzing electrical signals received from the skin surface to identify variations in muscle composition. This non-invasive approach is both cost-effective and more accessible. This innovation holds immense potential across var...

Viral Video | Kejriwal Accuses Gujarat of Being India's Drug Hub

By
Delhi : Former Delhi Chief Minister Arvind Kejriwal has stirred up a storm with his recent allegations in the Delhi Assembly, claiming that Gujarat has become the epicentre of India's drug trade. Kejriwal's speech, which has gone viral on social media, directly targets Union Home Minister Amit Shah. In his speech, Kejriwal presented a damning indictment of the Gujarat government, alleging that a significant portion of the drugs seized in India originated from the state. He cited several instances of large drug seizures in Gujarat and Delhi, linking them to a network operating out of the state. Kejriwal also pointed out that a significant percentage of the drugs seized during the Lok Sabha elections originated from Gujarat. 'Drugs are being sold at every nook and corner. Delhi has been turned into a hub for drug trafficking. While Delhi doesn't manufacture these drugs, a substantial amount of drugs seized here originated from Gujarat,' Kejriwal said.

Claims on Mosques and Dargahs Threaten India's Secular Fabric: Grand Mufti

By
Kozhikode: Indian Grand Mufti, Kanthapuram A.P. Aboobacker Musliyar, has expressed deep concern over the recent spate of claims made on mosques and dargahs across the country. In a press release, he warned that such claims could potentially damage the secular fabric of India and disrupt communal harmony. The Mufti pointed to the recent controversy surrounding the Ajmer Dargah, where a claim was made about the existence of a temple beneath the dargah. This claim, he said, is baseless and has led to a court case that could have serious consequences for the religious harmony of the country. 'The Ajmer Dargah is a symbol of India's religious harmony and Sufi heritage,' the Mufti said. 'The claim that there is a temple beneath the dargah is completely unfounded and is a deliberate attempt to create communal tensions.'

Road Construction Disrupts Businesses in Kasargod

By
Kasargod: The ongoing construction of a flyover as part of the national highway project has caused significant disruptions to businesses and pedestrians in the city. The digging of a three-meter-deep trench near the new bus stand for the construction of a service road has created a major inconvenience. Several commercial establishments, including the Cherur Complex (Old Taj Restaurant), AIWA Silks, IDBI Bank and offices, along with Smart Bazaar and Fathima Arcade, have been severely impacted by the road excavation. These buildings are now practically inaccessible due to the deep trench. While the situation might improve once the service road is completed and the basement floor becomes the ground floor of Fathima Arcade and Smart Bazaar is opened, businesses in the Cherur Complex face a more challenging situation. They may have to resort to using ladders to access their buildings from the national highway. Additionally, the front portion of the Cherur Complex might need to be demolishe...

By
Pathanamthitta: In a distressing incident, A.T. Satheesh, the former personal assistant to MLA Raju Abraham, lost a staggering Rs 7 lakh after his mobile phone was hacked. The incident took place in Ranni, Kerala. Satheesh's Union Bank of India account was targeted by cybercriminals who managed to siphon off the money in multiple transactions.

Fatal Car Crash Claims Five Young Lives in Kerala

By
Alappuzha: A tragic road accident claimed the lives of five young MBBS students near Alappuzha, Kerala. The overcrowded car, carrying 11 passengers, skidded and collided with a Kerala State Road Transport Corporation (KSRTC) bus on Monday night. According to the Regional Transport Officer (RTO), the primary cause of the accident was the overcrowding of the vehicle. The car, designed to accommodate only seven passengers, was carrying four additional passengers, which likely affected the vehicle's handling and braking capabilities. Other factors contributing to the accident include the driver's inexperience (he was 18 years old and had only been driving for five months), poor road conditions due to wet weather, and the vehicle's age and lack of proper maintenance. The absence of an anti-lock braking system (ABS) further exacerbated the situation. The deceased students were first-year MBBS students at TD Medical College in Vandanam. They were returning to their hostel after w...
