Today I lost My phone how to recover Duplicate sim

Hi all,

My phone (along with the SIM) was lost/stolen at Khardah railway station a couple of days back. The Airtel number is registered in my late father's name — he has passed away, so the original registered owner is no longer alive.

I've already:

  • Filed a police complaint through the local police's online app and got a registration/complaint number
  • Registered on the Sanchar Saathi app and got a status ID
  • try to block Temporarily the SIM via Airtel customer care, But options are haptic, tried many times.

Now I want to get a duplicate SIM issued for the same number, but since the SIM is in my late father's name, I'm not sure how the process works in this case — whether it's a straightforward duplicate SIM, or if it counts as an ownership transfer requiring death certificate + legal heir documents.

Questions:

  1. Since the registered owner has passed away, does Airtel treat this as duplicate SIM or ownership transfer?
  2. What documents are required — death certificate, legal heir certificate, NOC from other family members?
  3. Does the police complaint reg. number / Sanchar Saathi status ID help speed this up?
  4. Any recent (2026) first-hand experience with this specific situation — how long did it take?

Would really appreciate guidance from anyone who's been through this. Thanks.

Acurast (ACU) — decentralized cloud network using phones as compute nodes, mainnet live + listed on major exchanges

Acurast turns regular smartphones into nodes for a decentralized compute network — devices run workloads inside hardware-secured enclaves instead of relying on centralized data centers. Mainnet has been live since November 2025, and ACU is already trading on Binance, KuCoin, Kraken, OKX, MEXC, and Coinbase, currently sitting around $0.07-0.08.

They're running an ongoing "Cloud Rebellion" quest program (currently in a later season) where you earn MIST points for various tasks — these count toward eligibility for further $ACU ecosystem rewards, on top of the token already being live and tradeable.

How to join :

Create an account on Acurast Hub

Join the Cloud Rebellion program

Complete daily quests to earn MIST points

Referrals give bonus points

Staying active seems to matter for reward tiers

Since the tokens are already listed and liquid, this is less "hope for an airdrop" and more "engage with a live network for ongoing rewards." Worth checking the current MIST reward structure before going all in — I'll drop my own experience in comments if anyone's curious.

Grass is Scamming Long-Term Node Runners — 566 Days Active, 1.79M Uptime Points, $2.96 Reward. Read That Again.

I've been running Grass for 566 days straight across 36 devices — Chrome Extension, Desktop App, Android App, all of it, non-stop, since Stage 1.

Here's my Stage 2 snapshot as of Epoch 19:

Network Points: 577.55

Uptime Points: 1,790,356 (1.79M)

Days Active: 566

Devices: 36

My estimated allocation? $2.96 USDC.

Not a typo. Two dollars and ninety-six cents, for two years of runtime.

For context — my internet bill alone costs ₹700/month. Over these two years that's roughly ₹17,000 spent keeping my connection alive specifically to farm this network, on the promise that bandwidth sharing would actually be rewarded proportionally.

Stage 1 at least came close to covering a year's bill. Stage 2 doesn't even cover a week.

Meanwhile the leaderboard shows a handful of accounts pulling $4,000–$7,000+ with barely more net points than people like me are getting pennies for. The math doesn't check out, and Grass hasn't explained the allocation formula in any way that's transparent or verifiable.

This isn't a rewards program anymore, it's a bait-and-switch. You get people to run bandwidth-sharing apps 24/7 for years on the promise of meaningful payouts, rack up your "6.29M Users Rewarded" and "$3M Amount Distributed" marketing numbers, and then quietly water down the actual per-user allocation to fractions of a dollar.

I'm done. Pausing data sharing today.

To fellow node runners — my honest suggestion is to shift your data and mobile nodes toward anything related. A completely different reward curve than what Grass is offering. If you want to know what is this you may dm me.

If you're a long-term runner seeing similar numbers to mine, drop your stats below — let's see how widespread this actually is before Stage 3 tries to pull the same thing. If they try then stage 3 also comes.

Grass Foundation — do better, or stop calling this a "rewards" program.

Very Disappointed with Grass!

My Stage 1 allocation was 86 grass tokens! while estimated 65!

My Stage 2 allocation is just 6 grass tokens? only! actual maybe max 10 tokens!

my devices are online but your systems don't use my or any other network, so you guys are counting on network points only.

You are damaging the community you got!

Acurast doing far better than yours!

Grass Season 2 Update ✨

Hello Everyone! Good morning!

What's the status on Grass !

Many expect the full 17% allocation in Season 2, but nothing is confirmed yet.

🤔 If all rewards are distributed now, what incentive remains for future mining and wallet usage?

📅 More clarity expected on July 7.

⚠️ With more users and whales this season, competition is much rougher.

[FACT CHECK] Viral image of two schoolgirls crying amid rubble is from Bolpur, July 2024 — being recirculated to spread unrest in Bengal

A video/image showing two school-going girls in uniform sitting amid debris is going viral on Facebook with an emotionally charged caption claiming their father's food stall was demolished recently, leaving the family devastated.

The truth:

This footage is from Bolpur, West Bengal, dated July 2, 2024 — over a year old

The stall belonged to one Raju Das, who was operating an illegal encroachment

The structure was removed after multiple official notices were served

This happened during TMC's own administration — not a new or current incident

The post is being deliberately reshared to manufacture outrage and communal/political unrest in Bengal

Why this matters:

Emotionally manipulative content using children's images spreads faster than corrections. This particular post has already hit 550+ comments and 548 shares on Facebook within 2 days, showing how quickly misinformation scales.

The original uploader framed it with hashtags like #BabarSangram (Father's Struggle) and #ManabikatA (Humanity) to maximize emotional engagement — a classic misinformation playbook.

Always reverse image search before sharing.

ভিক্টর ব্যানার্জি ও পি.সি. সরকার জুনিয়র — BJP-র হয়ে লড়েছিলেন, মূল্য চুকিয়েছেন নীরবে। দল কি এঁদের কথা মনে রেখেছে?

অনেকেই হয়তো বিষয়টা জানেন না, কিন্তু এটা জানা দরকার।

ভিক্টর ব্যানার্জি — যিনি ডেভিড লিনের A Passage to India-তে অভিনয় করে আন্তর্জাতিক মঞ্চে বাংলার নাম উজ্জ্বল করেছিলেন — তিনি ১৯৯১ সালে উত্তর-পশ্চিম কলকাতা কেন্দ্রে BJP-র প্রার্থী হয়েছিলেন। সেই সময় পশ্চিমবঙ্গে BJP বলতে কিছু ছিল না — না সংগঠন, না ভোটব্যাঙ্ক, না কর্মী। তবুও তিনি পদ্মফুলের পক্ষে দাঁড়িয়েছিলেন।

পি.সি. সরকার জুনিয়র (প্রদীপ চন্দ্র সরকার) — কিংবদন্তি যাদুকর পি.সি. সরকারের সুযোগ্য উত্তরসূরি, বিশ্বের দরবারে যাঁর যাদুর খ্যাতি ছিল — তিনি ২০১৪ সালে বারাসাত কেন্দ্র থেকে BJP-র প্রার্থী হন। এরপর যা ঘটে তা রীতিমতো মর্মান্তিক। অভিযোগ, মমতা ব্যানার্জীর সরকার তাঁর সমস্ত শো ও প্রদর্শনী বন্ধ করিয়ে দেয় — শুধুমাত্র BJP-র প্রার্থী হবার "অপরাধে"। বিশ্বখ্যাত এই শিল্পী তারপর আর কোথাও প্রকাশ্যে যাদু দেখাতে পারেননি।

দু'জনেই ১৯৪৬ সালে জন্মগ্রহণ করেছেন। দু'জনেই বাংলার সত্যিকারের গর্ব — দশকের পর দশক ধরে নিজের প্রতিভায় আন্তর্জাতিক পরিচিতি অর্জন করেছেন। ক্ষমতার লোভে নয়, বিশ্বাসের জায়গা থেকে রাজনীতিতে এসেছিলেন — এবং তার মূল্য চুকিয়েছেন নিঃশব্দে |

অন্যদিকে TMC সরকার দলীয় আনুগত্যের পুরস্কার হিসেবে 'বঙ্গ ভূষণ' ও 'বঙ্গ বিভূষণ' বিতরণ করে চলেছে, আর এই দুই প্রকৃত কিংবদন্তি আজও অস্বীকৃত, অবহেলিত।

BJP-র শীর্ষ নেতৃত্বের কাছে আবেদন — ভিক্টর ব্যানার্জি ও পি.সি. সরকার জুনিয়রকে আনুষ্ঠানিকভাবে সম্বর্ধনা দিন। এটা রাজনৈতিক চাল নয় — এটা কৃতজ্ঞতা, এটা ন্যায়বিচার, এটা বাঙালি অস্মিতার প্রতি সম্মান।

পি.সি. সরকার জুনিয়রের ২০১৪-পরবর্তী পরিস্থিতির কথা কি আপনারা জানতেন? মনে হয় বিষয়টা যতটা আলোচনা হওয়া উচিত ছিল, ততটা হয়নি।

GRASS Season 2 Could Be Even Bigger Than Season 1 — Here's Why the Staking Data is Hard to Ignore

Most people are sleeping on how strong the $GRASS staking numbers actually are right now.

Let's look at what's happening on-chain:

  • 233.9M+ $GRASS already staked — and growing
  • ~23–25% of total supply is locked — a significant chunk off the market
  • 5.13% staking APR — enough to keep long-term holders committed
  • +3 million tokens added in just the last 2 weeks — the pace isn't slowing down

The part that surprised me most:

Even after token unlocks (which typically dump price), the market has been absorbing the new supply surprisingly well. That's not something you see often in crypto, especially in the current climate.

The reason? A large portion of newly unlocked or circulating tokens is getting re-staked almost immediately. This creates a continuous demand loop that keeps buy pressure alive and sell pressure relatively muted.

What does this mean for Season 2?

Season 1 already set a strong baseline. But if staking demand continues at this rate into Season 2, the reduction in liquid supply combined with fresh farming incentives could create a setup that genuinely surprises people — both in terms of participation numbers and price impact.

This isn't just hopium. The staking mechanics are doing real structural work here.

Curious what others think — are you staking and holding through Season 2, or taking profits before the next unlock schedule?

So TMC posted a video claiming BJP and ECI were secretly opening ballot boxes without party representatives present. They called it "murder of democracy." Sounds serious, right?

Except it's completely false. Here's what actually happened:

The District Election Officer, Kolkata North issued an official memo (dated 28/04/2026) notifying ALL General Observers about the scheduled segregation of postal ballots at Kshudiram Anushian Kendra on 30th April 2026 at 4:00 PM. This memo was sent well in advance.

CEO West Bengal (@CEOWestBengal) then clarified point by point:

All 7 strong rooms were sealed in the presence of Candidates, Election Agents, and General Observers.

The EVM strong rooms remained locked and secured by CAPF personnel the entire time.

The activity shown in the video was simply AC-wise segregation of postal ballots — a completely routine, scheduled process

All Returning Officers had already informed political parties via email about this, BJP's own representatives (Mrs. Panja, Mr. Kunal Ghosh, Mr. Kali) were shown the premises themselves.

The email evidence also shows the official notification was sent to all major parties — AAP, INC, CPIM, AITC, BJP, AIFB — well before the event.

This is exactly how misinformation works — take a legitimate, scheduled, pre-notified official process, film it, strip the context, and cry fraud.

Please verify before sharing. The official documents are right there. 🙏
