@rashtrapatibhvn Your thoughts and prayers won’t bring change. Fireworks licenses should be granted only after strict quality checks, followed by regular inspections by honest officers. Zero tolerance—any failure must lead to immediate suspension. Accountability must come first.”

Be anything in life, but don’t ACT like a mentor for CA students just to earn a few bucks. It’s not harmless, you’re messing with their stress, pressure and already fragile mental state.

ICAI must reconsider the implementation of measures that comprise student expertise in the name of modernization. We are witnessing a decline in the employability of Chartered Accountants within the manufacturing and corporate sectors, primarily due to the dilution of core subjects like **Costing** and **Law**. A Chartered Accountant’s brand is built on **expert knowledge**. By reducing the depth of these fundamental subjects, we risk producing "Incomplete CAs." It is impossible to lead a manufacturing unit without a mastery of Costing, just as one cannot navigate a boardroom effectively without a profound understanding of Law. I have full confidence in the new leadership of @theicai to recognize and address this gap. We need a curriculum that produces "Complete CAs" who are industry-ready from Day 1. Let us prioritize professional depth and technical excellence over simplified shortcuts.

Continued ... 1.General economic downtrend, irrespective of what Govt says. 2. Total non alignment of CA syllabus, poor articleship training . 3. Non identification with the "SECTORS which employ" in todays times : - Co-operation sector, - GCC - No Introduction to foreign ( US / Europe) accounting & Taxation area opportunities, for employability in back office centers in "Global Capability Centres" (GCC) , where once again the Big 4 are employing grads, across India, using the cost advantage of Indian Labour to serve overseas clients. - No MSME related formal education in Course / value add, to MSME in CA Course syllabus / training 4. Prohibition of use of "CA" title by CAs _not in practice_ / _employed in Industry in Accounting / finance_ / CA Coaching classes/ horde of CAs who have become Media influencers & not in practice nor in any area of Accounting/ Auditing/ Compliance/ Corporate etc 5. non introduction to formal Finance areas like fund raising and new developments in Fund raising globally, and within India, M&A, Only focus on Compliance and Procedures to collect tax for Govt , like GST , IT , TP , Audit , etc. 6. no formal or informal introduction or training in Stock markets, technical analysis, where incidentally "most CAs" today are working / "practicing" 😂 / employed. 7. Very Poor communication skills of CAs. Both Written and Verbal. 2/2

While I agree with you fully in principle, there are various other reasons too, which contribute to poor employability of CAs, begining with the organogram of ICAI which is redundant and out of sync with todays needs . The WORST if I may daresay , if NOT poor quality of elected representatives IN 5 RCs and Council and "self serving", greedy, ONLY intellectually masturbating CCMs / RCMs and Past Presidents, since last 25 years , the continually changing character and constitution of various Committees and yearly changing of Chairman / VC / Members of such Committees, also yearly changing of the Secretaries of various Standing and Non Standing Committees of ICAI . 1/2

Noticed many ice cream vendors stocking local/unknown brands alongside reputed ones and offering them to customers without hesitation. Saw this at a Havmor ice cream thela… the quality looked so poor, I’d honestly think twice before eating it. People assume it’s Havmor, but are actually being misled.

Indian Doctor🇮🇳@Indian__doctor·
A young doctor who came from Ambala to Dehradun with the dream of becoming an eye specialist has now closed her eyes forever. Dr. Tanvi, a postgraduate (MS Ophthalmology) resident Doctor at Mahant Indiresh Medical University, was found dead in her car on the morning of March 24 with a cannula still inserted in her hand. According to her father, she was allegedly under continuous harassment from HOD Dr. Priyanka Gupta over her thesis submission; recorded conversations have been handed over to the police. This is not an isolated incident it is the second such tragedy linked to the same institution. The question is not just about one death, but about a system where silence, pressure, and fear have become more powerful than the truth. #justiceforDrTanvi #medTwitter

This is Ranvir Singh Yadav. - In 1973, he was a bus conductor in Delhi (DTC). - He was accused of issuing a ₹0.10 ticket instead of ₹0.15 and keeping 5 paise. - The DTC filed a case against him. - In 1976, he was dismissed from his job. - He fought the case in court for decades. - In 1990, he won in the Labour Court. - DTC kept appealing, dragging the case in the High Court for over 40 years. - DTC spent ₹47,000 to recover 5 paise. In 2016, the Delhi High Court dismissed DTC's appeal and directed it to pay Yadav ₹30,000, along with ₹1.28 lakh as gratuity and ₹1.37 lakh as CPF. This is how an innocent man’s life was wasted fighting for 5 paise, while ministers commit fraud of crores and live comfortably in London.

Adv Madan J. Gupta@AdvmadanG·
Under Uddhav Thackeray’s CM tenure, even playing DJ and drums during Ram Navmi Shobha Yatra in front of a mosque led to FIRs. This was nothing but appeasement politics to keep then Minister and Malvani MLA Aslam Shaikh happy. In Malavani, Hindus were made to feel like second class citizens and lived under constant fear. Hindus are not allowed to take Ram Rath Yatra.

💀 Why Samant Goel should be India’s next NSA and why It matters! Delhi’s power circles are already buzzing. When NSA Ajit Doval retires, the name that keeps coming up is former R&AW chief Samant Goel. Not because of optics or politics, but because of capability. He is not a headline maker. He is the man sent to deal with the problem behind the headlines. Goel is known for being blunt in high level meetings. In his interaction with Jake Sullivan, he reportedly made India’s position clear without filters. Pakistan survives on two pillars, terror networks and nuclear blackmail. Continued backing from big powers only makes the region more unstable. India is no longer operating under fear of nuclear signaling and is willing to call that bluff if needed. During his tenure at R&AW, India’s intelligence posture expanded aggressively. After the US exit from Afghanistan, Goel moved quickly to deepen operational linkages with Iran, Kazakhstan, and Russia. This was a calculated shift to secure India’s interests in a rapidly changing region. He developed strong rapport with Russia’s security establishment, including Patrushev, strengthening intelligence coordination. There were even concerns in other intelligence circles about the emerging India Iran Russia alignment and quiet pressure on India over projects like Chabahar. In 2021, Goel and Doval visited Kazakhstan to push defense cooperation and explore a broader multi country security framework involving Iran, Kazakhstan, Tajikistan, Russia, and India. This was long term strategic architecture, not short term diplomacy. In August 2025, Goel quietly visited Moscow at the invitation of Russian intelligence. This was not symbolic. It reportedly led to a joint probe into terror financing networks linked to diamond trade routes running through Surat, Dubai, and Karachi. These networks have long been suspected in funding operations connected to 26/11 and later hybrid threats. Tracing these financial pipelines could expose the backbone of cross border terrorism. On Bangladesh, Goel played a silent but decisive role during instability in early 2024. Through discreet engagements with Awami League figures and sections of the military in neutral locations like Mauritius, Africa, and Dubai, his network worked to maintain balance. Efforts were also made to break opposition alignments and counter external influence attempts. Plans like a Dhaka Delhi undersea interception link were reportedly explored before being blocked under pressure. His network was also active in the Maldives, engaging local actors to push back against external interference and maintain India’s strategic space in the region. Earlier in his career as R&AW station chief in London, Goel reportedly recruited assets linked to Khalistani networks, including those overlapping with British intelligence awareness. This created friction with UK agencies and is believed by some to have contributed to later intelligence leaks to Canada during the Nijjar episode, triggering a diplomatic standoff. Goel also pushed for reviving the Russia India China format and maintained communication channels even with adversarial states. His core belief was simple, interests matter more than values and no relationship is permanent. Domestically, his tenure saw increased operational pressure on terror networks, including intensified actions in areas like Kulgam and expansion of India’s global intelligence footprint. The larger question is about India’s future. If the goal is Viksit Bharat by 2047, then national security cannot be soft. Some argue that India may eventually need a more security driven governance model, similar to how strong states consolidate power to ensure stability. It is a hard argument, but one that is gaining space in strategic discussions. Goel represents that mindset. Calm on the surface, ruthless when required, and always operating a few steps ahead. Delhi understands it, India understands that!#SamantGoelForNSA #NextNSA #IndiaFirst

BJ Govt Medical College, Pune — General Surgery Dept 06 AM to 02 AM shifts. 72–96 HOURS of continuous duty. No sleep. No food. No staff support. Residents doing EVERYTHING — from emergency duties to lab work — like bonded labour. 🚨 This is NOT training. This is SYSTEMIC ABUSE. National Medical Commission norms clearly cap duty hours — yet they’re being openly VIOLATED. How long will this exploitation continue? How many doctors need to BREAK before authorities wake up? Tagging those responsible: @NMC_IND Commission | Ministry of Health and Family Welfare | Directorate of Medical Education and Research Maharashtra #MedicoLivesMatter #EndResidentAbuse #ToxicResidency #DoctorsAreNotSlaves #FixMedicalTraining
