3. In a pilot project that has been successfully running
for over two months, the Central Railway has introduced this service, whereby passengers travelling on long distance train can inform the railway department to clean their coach over a missed call.

'job offer'. Who wrote this response? What was the offer?
"...All my life I have dealt with objective matters, hence I lack both the natural aptitude and the experience to deal properly with people and to exercise official functions... I am the more distressed over these circumstances because my relationship to the Jewish people has become my strongest human bond, ever since I became aware of our precarious situation among the nations of the world."

6. X is the first 6-shot revolver designed exclusively for
women by the Kanpur Ordnance Factory. The sleek and lightweight gun weighs 0.5 g and uses
a .32 caliber bullet. It was launched in the wake of the Delhi gang rape in
2012 in memory of the victim largely deriving its name from hers as a tribute.
Though intended to bolster safety of women, it drew widespread criticism, with some speculating US-like gun violence. Critics rejoiced that though rarely, but the government admitted its failure in the case.
X has a name roughly similar in meaning to a blockbuster flick starring Salman Khan.

Dentists who work in Appalachia have coined a new name for the extreme instances of tooth decay caused primarily by drinking sugary sodas.
