      Hyderabad, Aug 2025 : Ganesh Chaturthi, one of India’s most cherished festivals, is a vibrant occasion dedicated to Lord Ganesha, the revered god of wisdom, prosperity, and new beginnings. Marked by devotion, art, and cultural activities, the festival brings together families and communities to honor the beloved deity in a lively and joyous spirit. This year, the residents of Om Sree Signet, a bustling society in Yapral, Secunderabad, organized a heartwarming celebration that perfectly captured the essence of tradition blended with contemporary exuberance. The festival, which usually falls in August or September according to the Hindu lunar calendar, commemorates the birth of Lord Ganesha. It is celebrated with elaborate rituals, prayers, and artistic performances. Homes and community halls are adorned with colorful decorations, flowers, and lights, and devotees immerse themselves in pujas, aarti, and offerings of sweets like modaks, considered Lord Ganesha’s favorite. Beyond the rituals, Ganesh Chaturthi also serves as a cultural showcase, with dance, music, and drama forming an integral part of the festivities. At Om Sree Signet, the festival was enlivened by a special dance performance by three young and energetic children—Jia Chandra, Vaikha, and Mivaan. With infectious enthusiasm, the children performed the hit song “Veedu Moratodu Ani Vallu, Veellu, Ennenni Anna, Pasi, Pillavadu Naa Vadu” from the blockbuster film Pushpa 2 in front of a beautifully decorated idol of Lord Ganesha. The choreography, carefully crafted with the help of their mother, was executed with precision, coordination, and sheer exuberance, leaving the audience captivated. Watching the children perform was a delight for everyone present. Their innocence, unrestrained joy, and pure energy radiated across the hall, creating an atmosphere filled with laughter, clapping, and applause. Each step of the dance was performed with careful attention, yet with the natural spontaneity that only children can bring. The meticulous preparation was evident, but the performance never lost its effortless charm. When asked about their practice, Jia Chandra shared with a smile, “We have been practicing for a month so that we could perform perfectly on the dance floor.” Her dedication and that of her young companions were clearly visible, turning their performance into a heartfelt offering to Lord Ganesha. The audience, a mix of residents, parents, and fellow children, could not help but be drawn into the energy of the performance. The children’s expressions and movements reflected pure happiness, unburdened by worries, which in turn spread a sense of joy to everyone around. Their performance was not just a dance recital; it was a celebration of life, devotion, and community spirit. Such moments highlight the deeper purpose of Ganesh Chaturthi—not only to honor the deity but also to create spaces where culture, creativity, and joy intersect. Beyond the captivating dance, the celebration at Om Sree Signet also featured traditional rituals, offerings, and a communal aarti that brought everyone together. The fragrance of fresh flowers, the twinkling lights around the idol, and the rhythmic chants combined to create a spiritual ambiance, reinforcing the festival’s essence of devotion and togetherness. Children, adults, and elders participated with equal enthusiasm, illustrating how Ganesh Chaturthi continues to bridge generations and foster a sense of unity within the community. As the performance concluded and the applause echoed through the society hall, it was clear that the festival had successfully fulfilled its purpose—spreading happiness, devotion, and cultural pride. The dedication of Jia, Vaikha, and Mivaan, combined with the support of their family and the vibrant spirit of the society, turned this Ganesh Chaturthi celebration into a memory that will linger in everyone’s hearts. It was a beautiful reminder that festivals are not just about rituals and decorations—they are about shared joy, collective celebration, and nurturing the talents and spirits of the younger generation. In a world where children often face constant pressures, moments like these at Om Sree Signet offered a glimpse of pure, unadulterated happiness. The smiles, the claps, the energy on the dance floor, and the devotional atmosphere all came together to make this Ganesh Chaturthi truly special—a festival of faith, joy, and community spirit that will be remembered fondly for years to come.

      Joy, Devotion, and Dance Light Up Ganesh Chaturthi at Om Sree Signet, Yapral - Hyderabad.
      This morning, Om Sree Signet, located at Yapral, Secunderabad, held its Independence Day flag-hoisting ceremony. Most of the society members are retired defence personnel, dressed in their uniforms with medals shining proudly on their chests. The others wore the tricolor, creating a strong feeling of national pride and unity. During the event, I noticed an 11-year-old girl who delivered a truly wonderful speech. Her words were so inspiring that I felt compelled to capture the moment on my camera and share it with a wider audience. I was truly delighted to see such a young, talented, and confident leader in our country. It is inspiring to witness a child of just 11 years expressing her thoughts so clearly and passionately, showing a maturity beyond her years. Seeing this level of confidence and awareness in the younger generation gives hope for a brighter and stronger future for our nation. Team Maverick. By Jia Chandra Namaste everyone! I wish you all a very happy Independence Day. My name is Gia, and I am 11 years old. Today, I feel so proud, as if I am also a small freedom fighter. You might be thinking, “What does an 11-year-old girl know about freedom?” Let me share a small story. One day, I was reading my school book, and one line almost made me cry: “They went to jail so that we could go to school.” I thought, wow! Today we can play without fear, watch movies, and go out freely—only because people like Mahatma Gandhi, Subhash Chandra Bose, and Kali Lakshmi Bhai gave their lives for freedom. Why did they do this? They gave us freedom—the freedom to think, to speak, and to dream. Today, Independence Day is not just about flying kites or eating sweets. It is a reminder that we should strive to make India a better country, where everyone is safe, equal, and happy. I am so proud and happy to be here at CIGNET, surrounded by so many people who have contributed to keeping our independence and freedom safe. Sirs, ma’ams, uncles, and aunties, thank you from the bottom of my heart. The greatest thanks go not just to the men and women in uniform, but to all citizens. Everyone, in their own way, has helped preserve our independence and contribute to 78 years of freedom. Lastly, I would like to say that India is not just about soil—it is about hearts. Jai Hind!

      Jia 78th Independence Day Speech at Om Sree Signet Hyderabad 1
      ndian Army’s Director General of Military Operations (DGMO), Lieutenant General Rajiv Ghai, announced on Sunday that Operation Sindoor achieved its primary goal of eliminating terrorism. In a press briefing, Lt Gen Ghai stated that over 100 terrorists were neutralized and multiple terror hideouts were destroyed during the operation. “The Indian Army has given a strong and effective response to the recent terrorist attacks. We have confirmed the destruction of several terrorist bases with clear evidence,” he said. Lt Gen Ghai revealed that three high-profile terrorists – Yusuf Azhar, Abdul Malik Rauf, and Mudassir Ahmed – were among those killed. These individuals had long been involved in planning and executing attacks against India and were wanted for their roles in the IC-814 hijacking and the Pulwama attack. Security agencies had been tracking them for years. The DGMO clarified that this military operation was planned in response to the terrorist attack on Indian civilians in Pahalgam. He added that Indian intelligence had identified multiple terror camps across the border, some of which were evacuated, but nine active hideouts were still in operation. These were the primary targets of Operation Sindoor. “The objective was to eliminate these terrorists and dismantle their infrastructure completely,” he said. According to Indian intelligence reports, the hideouts were located in Pakistan-occupied Kashmir (PoK) and Punjab province in Pakistan, including Muridke, a location previously associated with notorious terrorists such as Ajmal Kasab and David Headley. To support the Army’s claims, Lt Gen Ghai presented satellite imagery showing the condition of terror hideouts before and after the airstrikes. The images, he said, clearly demonstrated the extensive damage inflicted by the Indian armed forces. He further alleged that Pakistan violated the ceasefire agreement by targeting civilian areas during its retaliatory shelling. “Even gurdwaras were hit, which is a direct violation of international humanitarian norms,” he said. Despite an earlier understanding between India and Pakistan to halt hostilities, Pakistani forces reportedly resumed shelling along the Line of Control (LoC), prompting India to respond forcefully. India accused Pakistan of violating the agreement between the two DGMOs and confirmed that the Indian Army is retaliating appropriately. Foreign Secretary Vikram Misri condemned the breach of the ceasefire agreement. In a special briefing on Saturday night, he said, “For the last few hours, there have been repeated violations of the understanding reached earlier today between the DGMOs of India and Pakistan. India takes these violations very seriously.” He emphasized that the armed forces have been instructed to maintain a high state of alertness and respond decisively to any further provocations. “India has urged Pakistan to act responsibly and take immediate steps to stop these violations. We expect Pakistan to deal with the situation with seriousness,” Misri added. In light of recent infiltration attempts by Pakistan-based terror group Jaish-e-Mohammed, Border Security Force (BSF) officials confirmed that a heightened alert will be maintained along the India-Pakistan border, especially in Jammu. Operation Sindoor, a coordinated military response involving all three Indian armed forces, has been widely hailed for its precision and strategic success. It marks a significant escalation in India’s approach to cross-border terrorism, signaling a zero-tolerance policy toward attacks on civilians and military personnel. As the situation along the LoC remains tense, Indian forces continue to monitor developments closely while ensuring national security remains uncompromised.

      A Young Diver’s Perspective Jia Chandra, a 10-year-old first-time diver and a student at Army Public School, Hyderabad, shares her first scuba diving adventure: "At first, I was really scared. The thought of going underwater, where everything is different and unknown, made my heart beat super fast. And what scared me even more? The fact that I couldn’t call out for help if I needed to! As I got into the water with my scuba gear, I held onto my instructor Johnny and my Papa, along with another diver, tightly with my eyes. They were my safety net. But as I slowly sank, I felt a tiny 'pop' in my ear, and suddenly, I started feeling more comfortable. And then, just like that, I was floating deep under the sea! The world down there was like a dream! I saw bright, colorful fish swimming around me in perfect groups, like they were dancing. The coral on the ocean floor looked like a giant, colorful painting that moved with the water. Tiny crabs crawled over rocks, and fish nibbled on the coral. It was like a fairy tale come to life! For a moment, I even forgot to breathe—not because I was scared, but because I was in awe! Everything was calm and peaceful, unlike anything I had ever experienced before. Even in the quietest corners of the Himalayas, I never felt such stillness. After 40 minutes, we came back up, but I wished I could stay longer! The best part? They took photos of me underwater and gave them to me for free! I had my action camera, but it was so cool to have pictures of myself actually diving. So, if you ever visit Goa, don’t just stay on the beach. Dive in with Goa Diving and see the magic of the ocean! It’s an experience I’ll never forget!"
