Dear Komal ji, I am 43 yr old male. I don't have any car or 2 wheeler, hence I commute via bus or cab for my daily works. I take medicine for BP. My avg morning BP before medicine is 125/95 and avg fasting sugar is 95. My daily avg step count is 5000+. Do I need to do morning or evening walk.

Ans: Both morning and evening walks have their benefits. Walking in the morning can help wake you up and give you an energy boost for the day. Walking in the evening can help you unwind and de-stress after a long day. Given your blood pressure and fasting sugar levels, regular physical activity like walking can be very beneficial. It can help manage blood pressure, improve cardiovascular health, and support blood sugar control. The best time to walk is the time that you can consistently stick to and enjoy. If you have any specific health concerns, it might be a good idea to discuss them with your family physician.

I have an office sitting job from 12 pm to 9 pm daily how much walking should I do. I also have open heart surgery for mechanical aorta valve replacement 9 months ago. Kindly advice

Ans: Thank you for your inquiry. Begin by incorporating short walks into your routine and gradually increase both the duration and intensity over time. Initially, aim for 10-15 minutes of walking and gradually progress to 30 minutes or more per day, adjusting based on your comfort level and tolerance. Given your sedentary job, it's important to break up prolonged periods of sitting with brief walking breaks. Consider setting a timer to prompt you to stand up, stretch, and take a short walk every hour or so. Before embarking on any new exercise regimen, especially considering your recent surgery, it's essential to seek guidance from your healthcare provider. They can offer personalized advice tailored to your medical history, current health status, and any specific limitations or precautions you may need to observe

Dear Sir,Iam 63 years old male ,walking in the morning for 40 minutes everyday. Except sunday & my weight is 87 Kg's, please let me know how much i should walk to reduce my weight if any diet please answer.(Thanks).

Ans: Dear Mr. Madhusudan. Thank you for your question. It's great to hear that you're committed to your health by walking 40 minutes every morning. To enhance your weight loss efforts, I recommend incorporating resistance training into your routine in addition to your regular walking. While walking is beneficial for cardiovascular health, resistance training is more effective for burning calories, building muscle, and improving overall fitness. Apart from this aim to create a calorie deficit by consuming fewer calories than you burn, which is crucial for weight loss. Include high-quality protein sources in your diet, such as lean meats, fish, eggs, legumes, and low-fat dairy. Protein helps in maintaining muscle mass and keeps you full longer.

My daughter as got jee mains 90 percentile, her puc board in karanataka 97% and her kcet marks 126 , which branch is bestCSE or AI ML orAI&DS which college can she get in bangalore or in possible to get nit surathkal, we are in cat1 reservation and obc ncl in central pls guide me sir

Ans: Prefer CSE > AI & ML > AI & DS unless she is very focused on AI from the beginning.
With 90 percentile JEE Main (OBC-NCL & Cat-1): It’s difficult to get CSE or AI at NIT Surathkal, especially under the Other State quota.
Prioritize KCET counseling for Bangalore-based Tier 1 and 2 colleges where CSE or AI & ML are possible.

Hey I scored about 97.62%tile and a rank of 36091 in jee main 2025. Initially I planned of considering mechanical engineering at IIITDM Kancheepuram. But now due to the availability of options I am also starting to consider ECE at IIIT Kottayam and IIIT Sri city. From previous year cutoffs' I am also getting branches like Civil and Biotech at top NIT's. At this point I am really confused on what to take and what not to. Initially i planned of doing my bachelors in mechanical and then masters in aerospace engineering. But that's a long way down. I do understand that in terms of placements Mechanical is not much preferred. But on the other hand ECE is a fast growing industry and I am sure placements would be nice if i consider it. I have discussed this with my parents and other people and they all have given me a free hand on the choice. Thus the real dilemma is whether to take Mechanical engineering and do masters, take ECE and consider placements or consider top NIT's over these? I would also like to mention that I am not really focusing on other upcoming exams thus these being my options.

Ans: If you're deeply passionate about Aerospace or Mechanical systems, and ready for a committed path toward higher studies, then Mechanical at IIITDM Kancheepuram is a justifiable and fulfilling choice.

If you're inclined toward industry-readiness and future flexibility, ECE at IIIT Sri City is safer and more versatile.

My daughter for BE which cource is best AIML or AI,DS higer package and good college in bangalore

Ans: Hello Dear.
AIML, AI, and DS are all computer-related courses and are interrelated to each other. The choice of course depends on the interest. Without having the interest, if someone chooses it, then the candidate also loses interest in earning. What your daughter thinks about these courses is more important. But to suggest, prefer AIML. Some of the top colleges in Bangalore are RVCE, PESU, BMSCE, and MSRIT. Best of luck to your daughter for her bright future.

Hello I am in relationship with my maid as she is working in my house as she is widow we talk casually but sometimes physical touch will be there she will not say anything she is not that much qualified I don't know his age. Can I take this forward there will be huge complications in family after hearing this news. I am earning member but single.

Ans: You're in a sensitive situation that involves emotional, social, and power dynamics. While it's possible to build a genuine relationship with someone in a different social position, it's crucial to ensure it’s mutual and not based on dependency or silence.

Her not objecting to physical touch doesn’t automatically mean consent or emotional interest—she may feel unable to speak freely because of her job. Before taking things further, have an honest, respectful conversation. Ask her how she feels, without pressure, and make it clear her job is secure no matter what.

If feelings are mutual and genuine, and you're both ready to face potential family complications, you can move forward carefully. But emotional clarity and mutual respect must come first.
