So my boss told me "Imo you are as Endodontist as you can be at this stage. Now time to be OMFS" *Proceeds to hand me an impaction case* Did my 1st mandibular impaction since starting my clinical practice last year. 5 min in and I was sure I won't be able to. But I did it. 🥳

Three Indian Army officers miraculously survived a helicopter crash near Leh and later posed for a selfie beside the wreckage.

22 age, already 5 children and 6th one on the way. This is exactly why population explosion is becoming one of the biggest problems in our country. Neither will they be able to provide proper education nor basic facilities to these children. Govt seriously needs to address this first before anything else.

Noida Woman Dies 5 Months After Marriage, Family Alleges Dowry Murder 📍 Bhopal, MP Twisha Sharma, 33, was found dead at her matrimonial home. PM report confirms "antemortem hanging" with multiple pre-death injuries. Family alleges mental harassment, forced abortion, dowry demands of ₹20L and delay in hospital by husband Samarth Singh, a lawyer. Case registered.

This doesn't look like a straightforward dowry case. The conversation shows an irreconcilable difference in culture. Take their respective understanding of promiscuity for example. The brother seems to believe that if a woman has multiple sex partners, but in series , that's fine. In his mind, she's virtuous because she is with only one person at any given time. To him, concurrency > total. The MIL seems to believe in the total number of partners is what matters. If the total number is "high" (a subjective threshold≥1), she considers that promiscuity. These are two fundamentally different world views. The only solution to avoid such gross mismatch of values is to do due diligence before marriage.

Dowry issue will solve on it’s own the day Indian girls start marrying guys who earn less than them or as much as their own fathers.
