Planning a solo trip in October

Hi, I am planning to have a trip in October for 3-4 days. I don’t have a destination in mind, but I am from north F and I am looking to go somewhere in the north itself. I went to a solo trip before, but not the overnight one, so this is going to be a new experience for me, and I am quite nervous about that. I also want to make sure that the place I’m going to is safe for girls.
Preferably I want to go to the mountains and I have budget of 10-15 K plus I don’t want to stay in the hostel because I not comfortable with sharing my space. The goal of this trip is just to decompress and get some peaceful days.
So please suggest, where can I go and what can I do keeping in mind that this is going to be a new experience for me, and I don’t want to feel super overwhelmed and feel lonely

Joined a company that misrepresented the role

Hi all, I joined a company last month and got to know they misrepresented the role completely. I was hired as a snowflake DE and they handed me a micro service creation project. They don’t have software engineers so the backend and frontend work is handled by DEs only, I personally don’t see this adding much to my career. I have 6.5 years of experience and i feel struck right now. Shall i make an exit? They have 3 months of notice period and if i get another offer will they release me early? How will i justify this to the next recruiter?
I was a data lead in my previous role and now i feel like an imposter, My confidence is low and i feel really demotivated.

I had a discussion regarding this with my manager today and he said he will have a chat with leadership but need advice from the community.

Father changed my mother's name after marriage but never officially updated her name

When i parent got married 30 years ago, My dad for some reason changed my mother's name (Now i am old enough so i asked my dad why he did that and he didn't have any answer). All her certificated got her previous name and the documents created after marriage got a new name.
All my certificates got her current name.
Now a real twist, Her voter card after marriage still got her previous name and they renewed it in 2020 with a new name. But with the current census, They are looking at older cards. So legally both mother has 2 entities.

Now i want to know what can be done in this case? In order to keep her vote and just use the new name going forward.

Need urgent advice

Hi All, So i joined nagarro this monday with 3 days in office. I relocated to gurgaon as i have to visit client office thrice a week. I recently got to know that sometimes employees has to do night shifts as well which i am not comfortable and this wasn't disclosed previously. The PM said they start their day around 11 and ends around 9 but today i saw work chedule for my coworker that suggests he work from 8:30-5:30 in the morning. Now i am concerned myself.
But i was also in final state for a remote company and i will be receiving an offer from them in a day or two. Now the thing is nagarro has this clause in offer that if either party don't want to serve the notice then they have to pay 2 months of salary.
If i go with the other company now what would be the consequences? Can i just leave this week itself?

Employer put incorrect tenure end date that's now causing BGV discrepancy

I worked for a company from Mar 20 - Jan 22 and they mistakenly added my tenure end date as Dec 21 and now I am in process of onboarding to a new company and my BGV is failing due to this mismatch. I reached out to the former employer and they filed for a joint declaration as this was an error from their end. Now since Thursday this is sitting with field office and new company isn't doing my onboarding due to this.
I provided all supporting documents like epf passbook copy, fnf settlement document, relieving letter, joint declaration screenshot too but they aren't budging.
Can anyone confirm how many days it will take? My joining was suppose to happen yesterday but due to this error they didn't proceed. Now the new joining is coming Thursday and after that they are saying they will drop the offer. My last day was Friday.
