“Why are you crying about the re-exam? It’s not like you’ll forget everything you studied in a few weeks. If you are a good student, you can study again and still score well.” Well, that’s not how things work. Competitive examinations are not merely tests of knowledge, but also tests of timing, mental conditioning, emotional stability, and peak performance achieved after months or years of disciplined preparation. Serious students structure their entire routine around one examination date, carefully managing sleep, revision cycles, stress levels, mock tests, and mental sharpness to perform at their absolute best on that particular day. When an exam is cancelled despite their honest effort, they are forced to recreate the same level of focus and intensity again, which is mentally exhausting and usually impossible with the same efficiency. The hardest-working students are affected the most because they invest the greatest emotional and mental energy into preparation. After the first exam, many experience burnout, fatigue, reduced concentration, emotional numbness, and loss of momentum. Even if their knowledge remains intact, their sharpness may decline during the re-exam. Most damaging of all, paper leaks weaken a sincere student’s faith in merit itself. When students realize that even years of hard work cannot protect them from systemic failures caused by others’ dishonesty, it creates frustration, helplessness, and distrust toward institutions. This is why a leak-proof exam is non-negotiable, the bare minimum that can be done for hard working students.

Old timers got it right. And when you're poor, you don't have much choice. So our parents, their parents, did what they thought best back in the day. Bought their house the hard way - slogging, saving, without home loan, borrowing from friends and family. Bought gold because gold is gold. Didn't understand stock market so stayed away. Bought an insurance policy because LIC is LIC and you get bonus. Look what it got them. Their kids got a home. That's the best security in a poor country. No home loan. They got the LIC policy. They got gold. All great products worth security and when you're poor, security means a lot. Sure they missed the Infosys IPO but they also missed so many scams. What did they do? They sent their kids to schools, colleges, and in a liberalised open India, these kids became VP, senior VP, in banks or IT firms and made more money than their parents and bought even bigger homes. And got very lucky with ESOPs. This is what education and economic reforms got for them. Now their kids. Gen Z. With the security of parents who worked in MNCs, in the comfort of their 4BHK in Lower Parel. They write long posts on social media about how old India didn't have choice and invested in "garbage" like LIC policies, FD, gold, etc. Whereas the cool way is to log on to an app and invest in an index fund. Sharam karo saalon. Your grandparents and your parents saw what the real India was. Have some respect. For likes and follows you're ignoring and forgetting what India used to be and how prior generations gave their best and came out with results they're proud of. Sharam karo.

@Chekunthala Oldest trick in the game!

We added a ₹200 cart discount for orders above ₹2000. One customer placed 5 separate orders and took ₹1000 off. respect 👏

Nitin Gadkari ji wants AI and ML to fix India’s road problems, while the real issue lies in poor design and substandard components. Yogi ji talks of investing thousands of crores in an “AI City,” but basic infrastructure in places like Kanpur and Ghaziabad is collapsing, and what the state really needs is stronger support for manufacturing. Ashwini Vaishnaw ji dreams of India producing the world’s most advanced semiconductors, yet the ecosystem for even basic electronic components receives little to no backing. IITs chase futuristic research papers, but Indian industries are forced to import even the simplest machines and components due to lack of local R&D and engineering focus. The Supreme Court debates over creating special zones for feeding stray dogs, while citizens still struggle without proper footpaths to walk or safe lanes to cycle. And citizens aspire to have clean roads, better traffic, corruption less governance while throwing trash on roads, driving rash and glorifying family members who are earning through corruption.

Dear @narendramodi ji, On a very light note, I propose one mega reform for India: Abolish the Driving License system altogether. Here’s why: 1. 90% people don’t “qualify” for a license, they buy it. Everyone knows, including RTO, Babus, Ministers. Trust me. 2. Since people don't need to write test, they rarely learn the rules by rule book. 3. Funny part is that people who take the exam seriously and don't bribe RTO officials seldom pass in a single go. Hence the honest ones are punished. 4. By removing the test, gov can save crores of money spent on running the RTO department. It can also get rid of a department that is running on corruption and agents. 5. People who follow all the traffic rules, like lane driving, correct turns, right speeding are the ones who lose the most in terms of time, driving experience and peace of mind.

Want to know why our tax payments will never be enough? And this guy will come out clean after 20 years (our judicial system zindabad) and get arrears and pension. You fall ill or into bad times as a private employee (majority of Indians) you get nothing - no social security after paying 35+% tax and speed money for routine and legitimate work! THINK!

Okay, so you're banning vehicles based on age as low as 10 years. That means you think the PUC certificate which you ask people to get every year doesn't tell about pollution, it's useless, then you must be scrapping the PUC system, right? No, you're continuing with it. Okay then you must be giving people their taxes back which they paid during vehicle registration? No, you're not doing that as well. Okay then you must be giving some income tax benefit or waiving off road taxes, GST etc for new vehicle purchase? No? Not that as well. Then you must be sure that this will certainly help in reducing the pollution significantly. Ohh No? You're not sure on that part too. Wow that's great. This is the reason why people voted you and gave you the power to work for their betterment. Keep it up.

Take my car in five years. Double the road tax. Charge me more toll. Increase the fuel prices. Place a limit on the amount of fuel I can use per month. Put me under surveillance. I am ok with everything, BUT PLEASE GIVE ME SUSTAINABLE PUBLIC TRANSPORT and a cycling track.

The most absurd policy is forcing people to scrap their cars the moment they complete 10 years. 1. If age is the real concern, then what’s the point of a Pollution Under Control (PUC) certificate? Scrap that first. 2. If pollution is the issue, how do new luxury cars emitting more pollutants than some 10-year-old well-maintained cars get a free pass? And why aren't govt buses, planes, and other public vehicles held to the same standard? Not every family can afford a brand-new car. Many rely on 5-6-year-old second-hand cars that are affordable and functional. Should they drive it for just 3-4 years and then send it to the Kabadiwala? This isn’t about pollution. It’s a ruthless policy and the only ones benefitting are the automobile companies...

As per Delhi govt orders, police today seized overage bikes and handed them over to registered scrappers, who will scrap them and pay the scrap value. And just like that, the bike is gone. It could have been the family's only vehicle, the daily commute to work, essential for a job that required personal conveyance, or even the child’s ride to school. But now it’s gone, and the owner is forced to urgently arrange funds, buy a new bike, pay tax on it to the very system that took away the first one, or simply cope. Third-world country, third-world infrastructure, first-world emission norms, seventh-world enforcement, and eleventh-world knee-jerk reactions.

The unity India has displayed against Pakistan is remarkable. If we could channel that same energy and momentum towards addressing internal issues like hooliganism, traffic mismanagement, road safety, cleanliness even for a few months it could lead to incredible progress.

Ranveer Allahbadia comes across as a privileged, low-IQ guy with no real connection to the grassroots sentiments of India. What he did on India’s Got Talent was a minor issue, at best deserving of social media backlash, but what he did now is far more serious. His attempt to whitewash the India-Pakistan conflict as merely “military vs military,” while our soldiers risk their lives to protect and avenge the sentiments of common Indians, is not just tone-deaf, it’s unforgivable. There should be no redemption for this. Mark my words: sooner or later, his PR team will roll out some emotional campaign, perhaps a donation to a military welfare fund or a staged act of patriotism, to push the narrative that “Ranveer is more Indian than his critics.” Don’t fall for it. There should be zero tolerance for anyone who tried to peddle Aman Ki Asha narratives at a time when national sentiment was raw and our forces and civilians were in harm’s way, be it Ranveer, Ambati Rayudu, that third-rate Bigg Boss contestant, that fake UP tourism ambassador lady or any others from this privileged echo chamber.

Last night, Pakistani launched missile and drone attacks on multiple Indian cities, including Awantipura, Srinagar, Jammu, Pathankot, Amritsar, Kapurthala, Jalandhar, Ludhiana, Bhatinda, Chandigarh, and Bhuj. Imagine an attack on this scale, yet our common citizens didn’t even realise it happened. Why? Because unlike Pakistan, we have a functional defence system that shot down everything they launched. And today, we retaliated, with precision. They couldn’t intercept a thing. We don’t appreciate and thank our Armed Forces’ capabilities enough!

@GabbbarSingh More or less the same in Mumbai.. further tenant divide is between family and bachelors.. society I live in created an absurd rule of submitting adhaar cards of all visitors of bachelors..

In a Gurgaon society, this is how people tell you who all lives on their floor: Gupta ji Khurana sahab Khaana ji And a Tenant This class system is prevalent. Owners won’t mingle much with tenants. Even if they do, they patronise. There is a separate Owners WhatsApp group, on which all the issues of the society are discussed, the tenant has little say as mostly they aren’t part of that group. Have been at both sides of the divide. So can feel it. Don’t know how it’s in other cities.

Denmark's top badminton player, Mia Blichfeldt, leaves the India Open midway due to Delhi's smog and unclean ambience. Her Insta post: "Finally home after a long and stressful week in India. It's the second year in a row that I fell ill during the India Open. It's really hard to accept that weeks of hard work and preparation get wasted because of poor conditions. It's not fair to anyone that we have to train and play in smog, with birds defecating on the courts and dirt everywhere. These conditions are too unhealthy and unacceptable." Is Delhi's air unclean and unhealthy? Of course. Is anything being done about it? No. Why? Because it’s not an election issue. For the majority of Delhi’s population, pollution isn’t a concern. Free water, free electricity, free travel—now even free cash is on the cards. What else do they need? Kejriwal openly admitted that cleaning the Yamuna doesn’t fetch votes (though he promised to clean it, which he is doing since a decade). True. Cleaning the air won’t either. Selfish voters, hence indifferent administration—the beauty of democracy!

@3rdEyeDude OH SO FRUSTRATING.. I hate people who do this.. and get no action take against them.. and then few others will follow suit and in no time there will be multiple lanes..

'Discipline' - the word that's practically extinct in our nation!

I think madam FM is confusing me here Acc . to her here I have to pay tax on the loss also

Seems Virat Kohli and Anushka Sharma are settling in London. Honestly, that's ok. Choosing to stay despite opportunities abroad is fine. Leaving because you have the resources is also fine. India is a great historical land, but since independence, it has adopted a system that panders to the mob—a mob that resists growth, avoids work, thrives on oppression, and survives on freebies. The 2% of you who fund everyone’s welfare can’t change this country. Why? Because you’re just 2%. You don’t matter enough. Those who live off socialist schemes funded by your taxes are the overwhelming majority. That’s why they matter. Did you know a convicted criminal out on bail can vote in India? That person’s vote carries the same weight in the electoral system as yours—a law-abiding, tax-paying citizen who dreams of making India the best in the world. Our electoral priorities revolve around hamare samaaj ko uchit samman nahi mila, hamare mahapurush ka apmaan hua, freebies, reservations, hamari jaat ka neta CM bane, and even more freebies. Issues like pollution, health, and education? Barely a thought. And why blame the politicians when the masses couldn’t care less about them? Under its current governance system, India won’t go too far. I pray I’m wrong. But let’s be honest—most kids and grandkids of politicians (across all parties), bureaucrats, and judges are studying, working, or settling abroad. Perhaps they know something we don’t.
