Married life or vehicles – both run with harmony

Marriage is a legal and social contract between a man and a woman to live together for life. However, every couple is not fortunate enough to stay happily forever. Sometimes the bond is broken by the men, and in some cases women derail the matrimonial vehicle. The laws of the country are often more in favor of women, because of this many times men get harassed and there is no one to listen to them or support them. About 80 thousand such men who have suffered from mental torture from their spouse are members of an organization called Save Indian Family Foundation. The organization provides legal and social consultation to its members. In the case of excesses, steps like protests or demonstrations are also initiated by the organization. According to the organization, in the year 2020, more than one and a half lakh suicide cases came to the notice of the police in the country. In these cases of suicide, the number of suicide cases by men stood at 1.8 lakh. To attract the attention of the government and lawmakers, Save Indian Family Foundation is organizing a conference in Hyderabad this weekend to discuss a ‘matrimonial strike’ on behalf of the members. The organization is also running a campaign in this regard on social media.
While the marriage goes on in harmony, motor vehicles also need energy adjustments to run smoothly on the roads. Till now, petrol and diesel have been the main fuels for running motor engines. But due to some reasons such as carbon emissions, climate change, air pollution and fuel shortage, new energy options are now being worked out around the world. Rather say that the world has already turned to electric vehicles. These include both two wheeler and four wheel vehicles. In our country, charging stations are being set up for these vehicles on the highways and in the city areas, so that the batteries can be charged quickly or changed on the way. Japan based Honda Motor Company is busy preparing something big for electric vehicles (EV). The company will spend around 4.8 lakh crore rupees in the next ten years on research and development (R&D) activities related to these vehicles. Honda is aiming to introduce more than 30 models of electric vehicles by 2030.
Japanese automobile companies have been the world leaders, but over the years they have been facing stiff competition from auto companies in the US and Europe, especially from innovative brands like Tesla. Sales of electric vehicles, especially battery-operated cars, increased in the US, Europe, China and around the world last year. Booking of EV cars is happening so fast that companies have started taking full amount from customers as advance. This also does not mean that vehicles running on petrol and diesel will go out of fashion. Not so, but yes, the number of EV fans is increasing day by day. Industry watchers believe that the current year will prove to be important from the point of view of EVs. The International Energy Agency is hopeful about the increase in EV sales. There are not many e-cars in India yet, but EV scooters, bikes and autos have definitely started running on the roads.
