The heavenly sight of the corridor is entrancing and will undoubtedly awe devotees with its purity and beauty. The corridor situated in Ujjain is filled with divinity and solace, which will soon allow the devotees to bask in its glory.

The chief minister of Madhya Pradesh, Shivraj Singh Chauhan, recently visited the Ujjain corridor at Mahakalseshwar temple. He had a conversation with the media, where he announced that Prime Minister Narendra Modi would visit the corridor of the Mahakaleshwar Temple on October 11.

Prime Minister Narendra Modi has been invited to the Ujjain corridor to inaugurate the corridors of the Mahakaleshwar temple. Chauhan stated that the inauguration of the Ujjain corridor was scheduled earlier, but due to the municipal election and the implementation of the code of conduct, the schedule of the inauguration of the Ujjain corridor was postponed.

The premises of the corridor at Mahakaleshwar temple are still incomplete somewhere, which is commanded to be worked upon and completed soon. Funds worth Rs 700 crores were granted for the expansion and development of the Mahakaleshwar temple. Eight construction projects, which are worth Rs 310 crores, at Mahakaleshwar temple are about to be completed.

MOSHI MOSHI TO EVERYONE OUT THERE!! This looks like a message being given by this Japanese restaurant in Jaipur which is putting all five colors together in a plate representing the five taste- sweet, salty, savory, bitter, and sour. Lovely Prabhani reports…

We always crave other cuisines, and we hope that we could experience them once. And after watching a lot of k-dramas, and others on Netflix, we tend to get excited about the food they eat. One of the food we crave is Japanese food.

Jaipur always brings new things to it, here we have a Japanese restaurant which is beautifully designed, and is very popular amongst youngsters. It has a rooftop view that makes it more adorable. It also has an indoor sitting with a pleasant vibe. They have this Japanese food menu, with a lot of delicacies but this place has a limited target audience, because no one else would eat/ try this kind of cuisine. 

Because, the café directly mentions that they’ve a particular cuisine, and not everybody loves/likes Japanese food. 

Moshi Moshi is a Japanese Restaurant in Jaipur winning hearts with its USP...

But this place has got a vibe, whether for a date place or for a friends day out. One could go for the vibe, and enjoy the scenario in the evening. 

The place opens up at 6:00 pm in the evening, which is the perfect time to have a wonderful experience. And the staff there, would suggest you the best of their dishes, if you’re having Japanese for the first time. And they claim to serve the best authentic Japanese cuisine in the town. Once for all it’ll be a new experience for each one of us.

Moshi Moshi is a Japanese Restaurant in Jaipur winning hearts with its USP...

There’s one more thing about it their art of arranging the food on plate is also very different.

It keeps the balance by putting all five colors together representing the five taste- sweet, salty, savory, bitter, and sour. It looks very appealing and colorful.

Mountain glacier in Chile crumbles due to high temperatures.

Climate change is one of the problems that has become a major issue for nature. As nature is simply not controlled by human behaviour, excessive carbon emissions, deforestation, and industrialised pollution are all leading to the extinction of humans. As recent global disturbances have demonstrated, things will only worsen if we do not find a way to control the situation and be cautious about our own plane

The temperature rise in Chile’s capital has become a hot topic as the mountain glacier started to collapse and crumble into the rubble. The incident took place on September 9, 2022, when tourists visiting Patagonia visited the mountain glacier and witnessed the tragic happening of nature’s collapse. The video surfaced and created a buzz around the world.

Scientists have claimed that the heatwave and heavy rainfall became the reasons for the rampaging of the ice walls, which eventually became the reason for the collapse of mountain glaciers. 

However, the frequency of the rubble was troubling the scientists. Even though it was stated as normal, things were different when experts studied the disaster that occurred a few days earlier, claiming that these things generally happen when heat waves and liquid are both present.
Nonetheless, it is not solely happening in Chile; it is happening around the whole planet, which could be triggering all the other glaciers. There is plenty of news around the world concerning the melting of glaciers in Antarctica. And how can the increase in the north pole and south pole affect the whole climate of the world?

If we talk about the glaciers of Alpina, things are much worse, as the glaciers there have fuelled up melting, and it’s happening rapidly. The doomsday glacier is also melting away. The emerging heat issue is grasping the climate originality of the earth and the balance is somehow disturbed. Thus, quick action is very much needed to bring about change and save nature and humanity.
