Everything seemed like a big opportunity for a newcomer,” Iravati recalls. “But a few days later, his assistant called and asked me to come to Lonavala — without any details or explanation. The way it was conveyed made me question the real intentions behind it.”</div><div><br></div><div>Realising what might be at play, Iravati made a decision that spoke volumes about her character. “I refused to go and immediately stepped away from the project.

Each of these implants was 825 grams. I'm feeling very light after removing them. I'm relieved that there's nothing artificial in my body now; what's there is natural and mine. I'm grateful to God and my fans for this."</div><div><br></div><div>Sherlyn Chopra appealed to young girls not to make hasty decisions about their bodies based on others, social media, or societal pressure. "Don't tamper with your natural physique or try to change it. Think about the pros and cons, side effects, and talk to your family, friends, and medical experts before making any decision. Don't follow the crowd. Protect your reality. Your body is being cut open, and there are significant risks involved. I'm not against science, but don't just do something because someone else did it. Don't blindly believe what you see on social media. Consult with your family, friends, and doctors before taking any step. Your natural beauty is more attractive."</div><div><br></div><div>It's worth noting that breast implant is a surgical procedure where silicone implants are used to enhance the shape and size of the breasts. Sherlyn Chopra's fans are saying, "Finally, you realized you didn't need to do all this. You're beautiful just the way you are."</div>

In addition, the onboard sensor suite continuously measures key water quality indicators such as pollutants, dissolved oxygen, salinity, temperature, and pH. This allows early detection of contamination and promotes data-driven water resource management. Clearbot’s transparent and intelligent approach to pollution monitoring is already being piloted in the Philippines, underscoring its commitment to advancing cleaner, smarter marine operations worldwide.</div><div>Clearbot’s vessels are equipped with advanced environmental sensors and an integrated Autonomous Marine Survey System (AMSS) that expand their role beyond waste collection. The sensor suite continuously monitors key water quality parameters — including pollutants, dissolved oxygen, salinity, temperature, and pH levels — enabling early detection of contamination and supporting informed water resource management. Meanwhile, the AMSS captures high-resolution underwater data to update nautical charts and monitor seabed changes, contributing to safer navigation and more efficient dredging operations.</div><div><br></div><div>Sidhant Gupta, CEO, Clear Robotics said, “Our partnerships with JNPA, BMC, and other authorities go beyond cleaning operations—they represent a commitment to redefining marine governance in India. The enthusiastic adoption of the first fleet of 25 Clearbots validates the urgent demand for indigenous, scalable AI solutions to protect India's critical waterways. Through this collaboration, we are collectively setting a new national benchmark that aligns seamlessly with the country's sustainable development goals.”</div><div><br></div><div>Utkarsh Goel, CTO, Clear Robotics, further added, “The true power of the Clearbots lies in the real-time environmental data they generate, from bathymetric mapping to detailed water quality insights. This enables port and urban management to move from reactive clean-ups to proactive, data-led interventions. Crucially, by handling high-risk surveying and cleaning tasks autonomously, this technology is already proving to make essential marine operations three times safer and more efficient”.</div><div>As India strengthens its sustainability goals, partnerships with innovators like Clearbot are redefining how the nation monitors and restores its water bodies — paving the way for smarter, cleaner, and greener marine operations across the country.</div>
