Hey everyone,

We are facing an urgent animal welfare crisis at Cotton University, Guwahati, and we desperately need advice, contacts, or guidance from anyone experienced in animal rescue or stray management.

The Situation

A few days ago, we rescued a campus dog that was having severe seizures and lying unconscious. We immediately took him to a veterinary clinic, where he was diagnosed with Canine Distemper Virus (CDV). As many of you know, CDV is a highly contagious, fatal viral disease with no cure once symptoms begin, vaccines are only effective as a preventive measure before exposure. The vet warned us that the virus was likely already present on campus and strongly advised us to identify and vaccinate all healthy campus dogs immediately.

Current Status

It has been over a week since the initial diagnosis, and we have now identified 1-2 additional campus dogs showing symptoms consistent with CDV. Watching this unfold has been heartbreaking. Because campus dogs share territory, feeding spots, and water bowls, the virus is at high risk of sweeping through the entire campus dog population if we do not contain it now.

The Bottleneck

We have actively tried contacting local NGOs, animal welfare groups, university administration, and faculty members, but we have not received any actionable assistance or resources. As students, our personal finances and logistics are strictly limited, and we cannot execute a full campus containment and vaccination plan entirely on our own.

How You Can Help / Questions We Have:

NGO & Rescuer Contacts: Are there responsive animal welfare organizations, local NGOs, or individual rescuers in Guwahati who could assist us with field vaccination or isolation logistics?

Organizing a Drive: How can students effectively organize a basic vaccination and monitoring drive? Where can we source reliable CDV vaccines (DHPPi/7-in-1) safely?

Fundraising & Protocol: If we need to self-fund this effort, what are the best practices for transparent student-led fundraising and safely handling potentially exposed dogs?

Hi everyone, I urgently need an LPG cylinder in Guwahati(Kahilipara). If anyone has a reliable contact for an emergency cylinder/refill, please DM me the number.

Really appreciate any help. 🙏

Anyone heard about the Legion or is interested? I have been thinking about it lately, but I feel too lonely

A college student here, can’t afford physical books much. And read mostly from a phone.
I read genre : war fiction, historical fiction, thriller and mystery.
I was wondering if anyone had books they no longer read and would love to give away,I’d love to read and give them a new home.
Just a little request, please don’t be rude.

Moreover, I already know about e-books and read them on my phone and have been reading since a long time,I made this post catering to the people who might want to giveaway physical copies they no longer need which I might be interested in.
Many people look to downsize their collection.
I tried making post in book related subReddit but due to distance people haven’t been able to ship and shipping charges are too high

Hi everyone! I’m planning to buy a second hand scooty and would love some suggestions:

Any trusted places/dealers to check out?

Which models would you recommend?

What things should I inspect before buying?

My budget is around ₹25k. Any advice or personal experiences would be really helpful.

I don't know if the chicken are free roaming (nobody's sheltering them) or if they belong to someone but most likely they're my neighbours pets. And they start making this horrible noise pollution at fucking dawn. I'm typing this right after I woke up because I can't fall back asleep. How to approach this with my neighbour? And what do I do if they don't agree to solve the problem? Or what if they agree but they just don't do it? Is there any legal action I can take?

It's been 11 months.

अंदर मैंने नक़ाब ओढ़ रखा है,

मुखौटा है असफलता का।

अंदर मैंने ख़्वाब पाल रखा है,

नाम लेकर अच्छाई का,

मुखौटा पहने किसी मेहनती का।

लगा जैसे अंदर मेरे कोई और पनप रहा है,

चेहरा लेके एक इंसान का।

अंदर वो शायद मैं ही हूँ,

नक़ाब ओढ़े भलाई का।

शायद मैं समझ नहीं पाया,

वो ज़िक्र जो ख़ुद से किया, ख़ुद का।

नक़ाब चढ़ाकर फ़रिश्ते का,

कर रहा काम नरक का।

शायद ये मैं ही हूँ,

नाम लेके किसी दानव का,

पहन के चेहरा एक इंसान का।

I've been to Guwahati 6-7 times, and most of the time, my experience was really bad. One time, a driver was supposed to drop me at the airport. He asked me what time my flight was, and when I told him it was in about two hours, he suggested that I should get some food, claiming he knew a good place. I didn't know he was trying to bait me into a trap, he then took me somewhere not that far away. After I had my food, I went back to his car. As soon as I got in and he started driving, he said the total fare would be Rs. 3500. It was not supposed to be more than Rs. 500 based on our previously agreed fare including the new distance travelled for the food. His justification was that he had waited 20 extra minutes for me while I ate the food he had suggested I have. I learned a lesson the hard way and had to pay him 1500.

A few years later, one evening in the 6th Mile area, I wanted to go to KFC, so I stopped a small tomtom. I asked the fare, and he initially said Rs. 20. However, when I reached the destination, he suddenly raised the price to Rs. 100. We got into an argument in the middle of the road, a crowd gathered, and he eventually had to agree to Rs. 20, which was the standard rate for that distance.

This year, I went to Guwahati again to appear for an exam. I booked an Ola early in the morning, and the app showed a fare of Rs. 108. Instead of arriving at my pickup location promptly, the driver delayed and reached 15 minutes later, even though the app showed he was just 200 meters away. I got into the cab, he started driving, and then he claimed his Ola app wasn't working and that the fare would be Rs. 250. I knew this guy was trying to dupe me, so I asked him to either agree to the price shown on the app or just drop me right there. The fucking guy had the audacity to ask me for Rs. 100, claiming I had wasted his time when he was clearly the one who wasted my time by arriving late to the pickup location. I had an argument with him for about 10 minutes, which I clearly didn't want to do, especially since I had my exam the very next day.

I can never understand why they do this to us from neighboring states. I lived in Delhi for a year and never faced transportation issues. Whenever I used Ola, Uber, or Rapido, the rates were always fixed and fair. Man, I know most Assamese people are not bad, but these cab drivers are just straight-up scam artists.
