The 'Drain of Wealth' theory, propounded by Dadabhai Naoroji, focused on:
A) The migration of Indian skilled labor to Britain.
B) The systematic transfer of India's resources and wealth to Britain without any equivalent return.
C) The decline of Indian traditional handicrafts due to the Industrial Revolution.
D) The high taxes levied on Indian peasants by the Zamindars.
Every Indian traveler knows this feeling!
Tatkal booking opens… You type details at lightning speed… And before payment is done — tickets are SOLD OUT.
An IIT-educated engineer from Tamil Nadu got tired of this problem.
So he built an app called ‘Super Tatkal’.
The app reportedly saved precious seconds by pre-filling passenger details during IRCTC booking.
For many users, it felt like a game changer.
Reports say the app crossed 1 lakh users.
But then the story changed completely.
In 2020, RPF arrested him.
Railways said the software gave users an unfair advantage in Tatkal booking and violated railway rules.
Supporters argued: He didn’t hack IRCTC… He only made the process faster.
One app. One arrest. And one question that divided opinions across India:
Was he fixing a broken system… or breaking the rules?
