Why is it that when similar words are found in Sanskrit and Tamil, the default assumption is that the Tamil borrowed from Sanskrit and not the other way round? Does this not deserve analysis? There is good linguistic research that points to loan words from Tamil in Sanskrit. For example, 'Mayura' for peacock.

A tourist couple visiting Kodagu has sparked outrage after they were allegedly caught throwing plastic bottles by the roadside and later arguing with a local resident who objected to the act. A video of the incident has gone viral on social media. According to local residents, the couple was travelling in a car bearing registration number TG 07 AM 9907, registered in Telangana, after returning from a trip in the hill district. The controversy began when the couple allegedly threw two plastic bottles onto the roadside. A local resident who witnessed the incident reportedly approached them politely and requested that they avoid littering and dispose of the waste in a dustbin. However, instead of accepting the request, the couple allegedly became aggressive and questioned the resident, asking, “Don’t you know how to speak to women?” This led to a verbal altercation between the two parties. The argument reportedly continued for several minutes before bystanders intervened and brought the situation under control. The local resident recorded the incident on video and later shared it on social media, where it quickly gained widespread attention and criticism. Many social media users condemned the tourists’ behaviour and stressed the importance of environmental awareness and responsible tourism, especially in ecologically sensitive destinations like Kodagu. Local residents have also expressed displeasure over the incident and urged visitors to respect the cleanliness, environment, and culture of the region.

Plenty of people in SEA actually really enjoy Indian vegetarian food. I've repeatedly had friends over (Chinese, Singaporean, Indonesian, Malaysian and Vietnamese) who have picked a vegetarian dish to be their favorite item that day. Some all time favorites include Aloo Gobhi Matar(???), Palak Paneer, Kadhi Chawal, Pav Bhaji and Chane ki daal. Snacks like Samosas, Pakode and Sabudana Vada are hits. As are dessers like Kheer, Kulfi and Kalakand. We've only once had someone over for breakfast and they were blown away by Aloo Paratha. In Indian culture, it's normal to respect the culinary preferences of the host. The Hon. President is a vegetarian and so it's natural that she will serve vegetarian food *in her house*. Luckily, we have the best vegetarian food in the world and we should use opportunity to showcase that style.
