@KingranYama @ramsri_goutham Haha, basics are missing.

@ramsri_goutham << It only takes one generation for things to start collapsing >> Since you are talking math, that statement is a lazy math. Go back and redo math. Also, go back to the time of independence and graph normal growth, and how far the population has to go down to mean-revert

Wife and husband are two people who will die one day. To keep the population stable, they need to be replaced by two people. But that works only in an ideal world. Two people coming together and replacing themselves with two people comes with complications on both sides. On the left side, you cannot simply assume that the number of couples is the total population divided by two. There are LGBTQ people, people with fertility problems, and people who simply do not find life partners and remain single. There is also a skewed gender ratio at birth. On the right side, two children being born assumes that they will survive into adulthood and go on to have children themselves. But health issues, accidents, wars, and other factors mean that not everyone survives to adulthood or has children. So the average fertility rate needs to be at least 2.1 for a population to remain stable. In simple terms, among every 10 women, it is like 9 women having 2 children and 1 woman having at least 3 children. Now look around and see for yourself why population is collapsing in almost every country. From personal observation, even in financially well off gated communities where both parents are working, many are stopping at just one child because they are afraid their careers will be set back significantly. There are several other factors as well, such as nuclear family dynamics and the lack of direct help in raising children. Yes, India is overpopulated, but the math is not forgiving. It only takes one generation for things to start collapsing. And people do not magically start having more children just because governments offer incentives or run campaigns, as you can see in other countries. Once a mindset seeps into a generation, it tends to stay with them for life. You. Yes, you, the cool kid playing Call of Duty. Pause for a moment and hear your call of duty.

@Ajain112 Margin bhi bahut hota hai in terms of cogs though unke paas. Major kharcha to marketing mein lagate woh log.

I think the war has cost cosmetics companies the most. Cos all inputs are petroleum-based, both the product and the packaging.

I have firsthand experience here as well as in South as well as abroad. It is improving in India, but nowhere the level of abroad police. In Bangalore for a simple document lost request, was asked to come 2-3 times, and then when I went with a local person, they asked to purchase "copy paper" worth 1000 rs from opp shop to write lost complaint. Delhi police is much better than most places tbh. Abroad they are very approachable and have even worked for a project with them and it was all about community outreach.

@harshogle1 @ravihanda Harsh you have no idea how the police northern belt behaves. Go to Andhra, Karnataka, Telengana, Ap or Maharashtra to find out what a classic policing looks like. Have first hand experience of Jaipur police

Tree House School, Jaipur shut operations after taking the fee for the entire year. When parents complained, the school called the police. Watch the video to see how cops behave. It could be you. It could be me. This is life in north India.

@marinebharat Good news

Power Mech Projects to operate revamped 19.5 KM long Mumbai Monorail for 5 years Order value - ₹296 crore With 10 new rakes from MEDHA Servo Drive & CBTC systems in place, frequency will be down to 5 minutes Pic Source - me 😇

@ravihanda Love bhi theek hai, tabhi yahan reh rahe, hai na? It is not like ki koi job hai yahan Jo aur nahin hai, to rehna hi padega

@harshogle1 *live in. Not love. 😁

@ravihanda But still, could have written - India. This qualifier insinuates that this does not happen in south. Again it becomes like creating north - south divide.

@harshogle1 Because I love in and have lived in North India for most of my life. I see similar stuff around me. I read the same in Rajasthan Patrika, the newspaper I read everyday.

@AmeyKulkarni_21 Safety jaye bhaad mein? The logic these buddhjivis give is pathetic to the core. By the same logic, In previous times we used wood for cooking, let's all revert to it.

99% I can say that this prototype will fail miserably If the makers of this train, travelled from Dombivli to Kurla in the evening peak hours, they will know no amount of blowers could help the crowding AC is the only option (Btw the 238 AC local tender has been delayed again)

@IndianTechGuide These handles push fake news all the time.

🚨 RBI is planning to pause large UPI transfers above Rs 10,000 for up to an hour before completing them. (ET)

@itsmeharsh_09 Good bill. First seat to get reservation through this should be Varanasi seat.

BJP Manifesto of 1998 on Nari Shakti and women reservation bill.

Haha, I also give everyone a small para writing task in English. They can choose anything to write. However, it is quite sad to see most ppl are still unable to write a simple para on any topic without 10 errors and even writing 3-4 lines takes them so much time even when they are graduates.

I always take a written English test to check if a person can work in customer support. “Saturday is my favourite day, but I cannot tell you why it is my favourite day” Genz absolutely unhinged. 😭😭😭

@bhaumikgowande Lol, have you seen a single account who is supporting this project?

FYI, when this becomes operational, the PR machinery will flood timelines with photos of packed pods, and many of today’s critics will suddenly switch sides for their ₹2. But don’t forget, this was built where a legitimate Light Rail or BRT system would have served more people, with much higher passenger demand, in a much more equitable way.

@NalinisKitchen It is real, and it is run by Pradhan Pati.

The government introduced a rule that at least 33% of Sarpanch positions must be reserved for women to promote women’s empowerment. However, in many villages, the woman Sarpanch exists only on paper, while her husband actually takes all the decisions and handles the work. This is the ground reality, and everyone is aware of it.

@Sharanyashettyy I think with Virat Kohli and gang sporting stubbles, clean shave went for a toss.

Genuinely curious when did men stop having a clean shave and good hair cut? At what generation did this stop?

@frontierindica Your tweets are getting dumber day by day and without any foundation.

Fair observation, and the explanation is mostly demographic churn. Noida has the wealth and the flyovers but it's still a frontier town absorbing a constant influx of new money dehatis from west UP alongside bahubali landlawda types from across the gangu belt, and that mix takes a generation or two to settle into the kind of relaxed gender norms and comfy social spaces you see by default in south Delhi, Pune or Chandigarh. The women who do live there largely stay filtered through cars, gated society clubhouses and malls because the street layer hasn't earned their trust yet. The same women will take off their masks and walk freely at night once in Defence Colony or Khan Market.

@RanaAyyub Going by the same logic, China and Japan failed too in their diplomacy. What a logic, slow claps.

The world is lauding Pakistan for mediating a ceasefire through a war that could have unleashed the worst kind of catastrophe. Trump who spoke the language of ending the Iranian civilisation till last night is now speaking the language of peace. It is a sobering moment for India that now needs to really work on its foreign policy and instead of pleasing domestic actors needs to think of long term goals and not grandstanding in elections. Propaganda films might win us elections but not elevate our status as vishwaguru in world politics

@Bhayankur Oooh. Where did China or Japan's diplomacy failed if you go by the same logic?

Instead of acting all petty and salty, we should acknowledge that Pakistan enabled this ceasefire and do some genuine soul-searching. Where has Indian diplomacy gone wrong and why?

@one_by_two 1 dalla thanking another dalaal.

I thought I would never tweet this in my life but - Thank you Pakistan for brokering world peace ✌️ 🙏

@RailMinIndia There is nothing high tech in Amrut bharat, it is a totally confused product. Scale up Vande Bharat which is an actual upgraded train, speed it up. Stay away from major money loser like Amrit bharat with average speed of 50 kmph.

A twin glimpse of high-tech train 🚆✨ #AmritBharatExpress in a striking frame at Charlapalli Railway station, Telangana.

@jasveer10 Spot on. This is actually very irritating. Say you are in office, and people around you why are you blurting out single words or half sentences.

India is adding AI everywhere. Even where it’s not needed. HDFC replaced “press 1” with “say yes”. Now I have to speak in meetings to confirm a transaction 🤦‍♂️ Earlier it was silent. Press 1 and done. Unnecessary voice AI added. Bad UX. This is a downgrade, not an upgrade.
