He called up dozens of people from various TVS service centers around bangalore….he spoke to the regional heads or something (by finding their [...]

 One of the biggest disappointments in my life…..my TEENZ….does not run anymore.
When I bought the vehicle in September 2008…they promised me that the battery would come upto 2 years minimum. Good maintenance will make the battery go longer..
It was just one year….1100 Kms covered totally by the vehicle…..and the vehicle stopped running. Got it serviced [...]

I am disappointed …..my TEENZ was serviced so nicely and it came as far as 26Kms…but after a few rides now it is back to original problem…even after a full charge  it keeps stopping. Cannot go at a speed >10km/hr.

I had to take my Teenz all the way from BTM layout to hoodi…..this is about 21 Kms….
Teenz was giving me some problems of late and so I had given it for servicing at Bharath automobiles in 3rd Block Jayanagr in Bangalore. They had done a good job (although they kept my vehicle with them [...]

The Ganeshas made out of mud that we purchase for the ganesha chathurthi have the coloured paint on them….this paint is not eco friendly. When Ganesha is put in water…..this paint pollutes the water body.
The only mud Ganesha with the golden paint also is not good. The golden paint had lead in it…
It is good [...]

My mom does this….and I found it very useful….
If you have ground space in your garden….you can dig a nice ditch….
if not….you can use a drum or a bucket…or any big container
fill the container or ditch with a layer of mud….
whenever any dry organic waste is there at home…for example…vegetable peelings, grains , dried flowersetc….
