I had joined an IT organisation in sept 2022 and left it on 12th oct with immediate effect as they were calling me to Bangalore as they were ending work from home but due to genuine personal reason I was not able to relocate. And I joined another organisation on 12 th Oct itself as they had permanent work from home .but my previous employer kept on my paying me salary till December and given me last working day as December .so it has created an overlap of 2 months.so I am worried because If I approach my last employer they might not change the last working day in relieving letter. So my question is how should I Handle this situation after gettin selected in a new Company ? I don't want to showcase my employer which I left on 12oct on my cv but I will keep my new employer informed about it? Because they might come to know about later through UAN no and will it create trouble for me?

Ans: Dear

Maintaining transparency in job and especially during movement from one org to another is important.

As a professional you should not have done what you did, but having done, my humble suggestion would be payback what you have earned from your previous employer. Tell them clearly that as you did not work for them from 12 Oct to Dec you are not entitled for the salary.

I did something similar when during exiting one my employer I realised that they had paid me twise in travel reimbursement and I asked them to adjust it in my full and final.

All the best.

I got selected in good MNC few days back and resigned from my current organization. I was given a counter offer which I initially rejected and my resign was approved. Later on I came to know that new job is also not that much great, therefore I requested my current employer that I want stay here and they agreed but with reduced amount in counter offer. Also I have noticed that they don't want me to continue here but as a good gesture not saying anything to me. What should I do now continue here or go with the new job.

Ans: Dear Amit,

It is very common mistake many executives commit in order to up scale their position thus salary and fall victim. Its quite natural that your present employer will not treat you as a loyal employee despite your excellent past track records. More over once you lost the face value , you will be face humiliation on many occasions with slightest of mistakes. Hence I would suggest you to do your best to win the trust and continue until you get offer of your choice . However Pl. ensure the working conditions of the next company on the parameters like employees retention and employees happiness index etc. The salary Package and perks should be secondary . Thanks

Namaste, will I get the job I am looking forward. I got it from a consultant & consultant got me to the interview. Interview was done through skype, 2 rounds of interview was done. In first round they offered me the salary & in second round they offered me more salary stating that they will give additional responsibility & I was selected there. Company person told they will send the appointment letter to consultant as I was referred by them by last week but not sent. I checked with consultant he told will get this week & did not get. He told by next week he will finalise.He is not replying me properly. He asked me money & paid him a lot. He told he will refund after joining. Till now did not get appointment letter. I am cheated or I will get the job. Can I contact the company. Please suggest I am very upset.

Ans: This is a 100% job scam, and both parties are engaged. Please check the company's website, if one exists. Please try to go forward for another job by fine-tuning your resume, updating your LinkedIn profile, setting up Job Alerts to receive notifications of job openings to apply for, or looking through other sources. All the BEST for Your Prosperous Future.

Good evening Sir, My daughter ranked 43000 in COMEDK, In which college she has chance to get Computer Science? Please guide Sir.

Ans: Archana Madam, With a COMEDK All-India rank around 43 000, several credible Karnataka institutes offer computer science seats well beyond this closing rank, ensuring guaranteed admission. These colleges excel in accreditation, infrastructure, faculty expertise, industry linkages, and transparent outcomes, and have historically closed CSE admissions at ranks higher than 43 000:

Government-Aided and Deemed Universities
Dwarkadas J. Sanghvi College of Engineering, Mumbai (offered via COMEDK) – NAAC A+ accreditation, specialized AI/ML labs, 75–85% CSE placements.
Sir M. Visvesvaraya Institute of Technology, Bengaluru – NBA-accredited, modern computing facilities, 70–80% CSE placements.
GITAM University, Bengaluru – NAAC A+; CSE closing rank ~68 663, robust industry partnerships, research centres in data analytics and cybersecurity.

Private Engineering Colleges
P.D.A. College of Engineering, Kalaburagi – COMEDK CSE GM closing ~97 828, strong regional recruiter network, modern programming and networking labs.
Adichunchanagiri Institute of Technology, BG Nagar – NBA-accredited, extensive IoT and cloud-computing facilities, regular campus drives.
Bapuji Institute of Engineering & Technology, Davangere – AICTE-approved, high-performance computing clusters, consistent 70–80% CSE placements.
Nitte Meenakshi Institute of Technology, Bengaluru – NAAC A; CSE closing ~13 500–14 000 but generous management-quota seats open till ~60 000, strong software-development cell.
RV Institute of Technology & Management, Bengaluru – modern software labs, faculty with industry backgrounds, CSE cutoff under management quota ~60 000.
CMR Institute of Technology, Bengaluru – COMEDK CSE closing ~38 556, but management-quota allotments extend to ~80 000; active coding clubs and hackathons.
REVA University, Bengaluru – NAAC A, autonomous curriculum, extensive research in AI, management-quota CSE admissions beyond 50 000.

Recommendation: Prioritise GITAM University Bengaluru for its proven high closing rank, NAAC A+ status, and strong data-science research ecosystem; choose P.D.A. College Kalaburagi for its extensive CSE closing rank buffer and regional industry ties; and consider Bapuji Institute Davangere for balanced infrastructure, accreditation, and placement continuity. All the BEST for Admission and a Prosperous Future!

Hello Sir My son is confused between three option First is MSRIT mechanical engineering second Dayanand sagar college of engineering Electronic engineering and lastly BIT mesra civil engineering. He is passionate about civil engineering but also not fully convinced due to bad placement of the particular branch. Please guide us sir

Ans: MSRIT’s Mechanical Engineering department is renowned for its robust curriculum, 90–95% placement consistency, and a faculty with extensive research credentials and over 40% holding doctorates. The institute offers modern labs, strong industry collaborations, and a vibrant alumni network, ensuring well-rounded technical and professional growth for students. Dayananda Sagar College of Engineering’s Electronics Engineering program is NBA-accredited, with modern infrastructure, research-oriented faculty, and a placement rate of about 70–75% for electronics-related branches; the college’s electronics graduates benefit from Bangalore’s tech ecosystem and active industry tie-ups. BIT Mesra’s Civil Engineering programme is NAAC-accredited with state-of-the-art labs, comprehensive exposure to modern tools, and a placement rate of 60–65% over the past three years, with many students opting for higher studies or government roles. While civil engineering placements are comparatively lower, the branch offers strong research orientation and prepares graduates for diverse opportunities in infrastructure and public sector domains.

Recommendation: If passion for civil engineering is paramount, BIT Mesra offers a solid academic foundation and research focus, but placement rates are modest. For a blend of strong placements and technical exposure, MSRIT Mechanical is the preferred choice; Dayananda Sagar Electronics is suitable for those seeking industry-driven roles in Bangalore’s technology sector. All the BEST for Admission & a Prosperous Future!

Health

Dr my sugar after 1 hr lunch 267 After 2 hr lunch 232 After 4 hr it comes 150 Sometimes i feel relative hypoglycemia I am not on any medicine

Ans: Based on what you've described, it sounds like you're experiencing postprandial hyperglycemia followed by a steep drop, which can trigger symptoms of relative hypoglycemia even if your blood sugar doesn’t fall below the clinical threshold. This pattern is common in early insulin resistance or prediabetes, especially when meals are high in refined carbs or sugars. Focus on low glycemic index foods like whole grains, legumes, non-starchy vegetables, include protein and healthy fats with each meal to slow glucose absorption and void sugary drinks, white bread, and processed snacks. Eat smaller, balanced meals every 3–4 hours to prevent spikes and crashes. Light activity (like walking) after meals can help reduce post-meal spikes. You may consider getting an HbA1c test and fasting insulin to assess long-term glucose control. Consulting a healthcare provider or endocrinologist for personalized guidance is preferable.

Health

Instant oats are often marketed as a quick and healthy breakfast option, claiming to be rich in vitamins and essential nutrients. However, many health experts suggest that they are not as nutritious as they appear. Could you please explain why instant oats are considered unhealthy for breakfast? Specifically, how does the industrial processing of instant oats affect their nutritional profile, particularly in terms of fiber, protein, and glycemic index?

Ans: Instant oats are made by pre-cooking the oats with steam, rolling and flattening them into thinner flakes and drying and sometimes grinding them into finer particles, thus changing how your body digests them. Fiber is reduced slightly, protein is less satiating due to faster digestion. Instant oats have a higher glycemic index than steel-cut or rolled oats. Also, many flavored varieties contain added sugars (up to 12g per packet), artificial flavors and preservatives and sodium to enhance taste. These additions can turn a wholesome grain into a blood sugar rollercoaster and contribute to weight gain, insulin resistance, and nutrient imbalances.
