Metaverse. The concept is nothing new, though. If you have seen a film like Matrix , or Real Player One, you will easily know what it entails: a virtual reality space that people can enter and access through the use of a gadget or a device. Think of a video game, say Fifa, or Minecraft. The player controls a character or the events on the screen with the help of commands and buttons. Now, what if, instead of sitting at the console and watching the game unfold on the screen, the player could be inside the game, participating not from the outside but as a character embedded in it? WHAT WILL I BE ABLE TO DO IN THE METAVERSE? It’s a concept that involves an online world where people can interact with others, collaborate and communicate virtually, without needing to be in the same space. For example, you can be in New Delhi and your family may be in Kolkata, but you could enjoy a dinner together sitting around the same table. It’s like Zoom or Google Meet on steroids. Instead of staring at

I am highly impressed by some of these while others are not worth your hard earned money. Moov Moov is almost synonymous with pain relief in India. But is it worth the tag? Let's check the Ingredients. 25% of its ingredients are herbal and taken from Bhavprakash . While the other 75% gives texture to the cream are hidden, they can be synthetic or maybe toxic . I mean if they are safe why hide them? So why take a risk if we can apply 100% natural product to get an instant relief. In the same chemist shop Himalaya Pain Relief Oil is a safe pick. Very clearly they have mentioned the complete ingredients. Also Ayurveda Maha Narayan Oil is a safe pick too. You can select any from them. Boro Plus Got a minor cutting while cutting vegetables?

  Businessman Raj Kundra, husband of actor and businesswoman Shilpa Shetty, was arrested by the Mumbai police on Monday  in connection with an adult film racket. What is the case, and does Kundra face any other similar case? Case in which Raj Kundra has been arrested. On February 4 of this year, the Mumbai police said they had arrested five people for allegedly forcing women into porn movies. They would promise these aspiring actresses, who came to Mumbai from various parts of the country, roles in web series. However, on the day of the shoot, they would change the script and threaten the women to expose themselves. If the women refused, they were asked to foot the bill for the shooting preparations. Once the movies were shot, the accused made them available on mobile apps, offering subscriptions on the lines of mainstream OTT platforms.

  What has happened? The RBI has barred Mastercard Asia Pacific from onboarding new credit, debit and prepaid card customers with effect from July 22 as it failed to comply with data storage norms. Mastercard is the third card network to be barred by RBI this year, after American Express and Diners Club were similarly prohibited  from onboarding new customers in April. This leaves just Visa and Rupay as the only card networks allowed to take in new customers. But Why This Step By RBI? The data storage rule enforced in 2018 mandates that - "Payments system providers store the entire payment data in systems located only in India, except for processing cross-border payments." Data sent abroad for processing should be deleted abroad  within the prescribed timeline and stored only in India. Mastercard's Response.
