A Better Tomorrow
Stories, Practices, and Solutions
Imagine a barren patch of land, lifeless, without hope, dismissed as worthless.

October Heat refers to the rise in temperature that occurs during the post-monsoon and pre-winter season. In recent years, however, October has increasingly felt like an extension of summer rather than an early indication of winter.
