@AaryanPrateekX This guy is a Feku. Says he used phone for 7 hours everyday before exam. He might be using it to watch lectures but conveniently misleading junior aspirants.

An Open Letter to the Jantar Mantar protestors:

My dear young friends,

I address you today not as a politician or an MP, but as someone deeply troubled by what is happening to your generation of young Indians.

This is personal for me. I was born to a middle-class family: my father was a salaried newspaper employee, my mother a homemaker, with three children to educate on one income. For a family like ours, merit was not a slogan. Scholarships, fair examinations, honest results — these were the only way one salary could carry three children's dreams.

I went to school in Mumbai and Kolkata, to college here in Delhi, topped the University and earned admission into IIM — and chose instead to follow my passion for international affairs, in America, on a scholarship. Nothing was inherited; everything was earned by hard work and yes, Exams.

So I know that a fair, merit-based system is the only ladder for young people from lower and middle-income families to climb up. When that ladder is broken — papers leaked, examinations cancelled, trust destroyed — the children of the rich and powerful do not suffer. They have other ladders. It is your dreams, and your families' sacrifices (and tragically, in some homes, young lives themselves) that are betrayed.

To the young people gathered at Jantar Mantar, and those raising your voices peacefully across India: this country hears you. Your anger is not indiscipline — it is the anguish of a generation that did everything right and was still betrayed . You are not alone.

And to the millions of young Indians watching quietly: your generation is not a problem to be managed. You are the answer to India's future. Do not lose hope. This ladder will be rebuilt — by you, and by every Indian who stands with you.

To Shri Sonam Wangchuk-ji, my heartfelt appeal: please end your fast. You have awakened the conscience of the nation; that is what a fast is meant to do. India needs your voice for the long road ahead.

With Parliament in session again from Monday, we will have an opportunity to raise the students’ issues in the highest forum of our democracy. That’s where the problem should be addressed, not by fasting unto death. Please heed my plea.

And finally, to the Government: I respectfully urge you to reach out and engage in the dialogue our democracy owes its young citizens. That is not weakness; that is statesmanship.

@tisabhinavkumar @ipsvijrk Problem yeh hai ki woh sirf aurat ko ye nasihat de rahi purush ko nahi.

@YadumOreYavarum @RoshanKrRaii But this could create negative loop. Wherein political parties don’t associate economic social progress with electoral victory.

@Wegiveyouhealt1 Even Sachin averaged the same at those number of innings as Sanga has. Only later it trickled down and came at 53.

[Aman @Architectage5]

@theskindoctor13 Firstly realise its not a Delhi problem,
Its not even a North India problem,

Its a Pan-India issue.

None of major cities have livable air all across the year.

@up_10t_army UP were the state with highest GDP when British left. Allahabad and Lucknow was a cultural capitals, Kanpur was an industrial giant. Then after few decades everything went haywire.

[Aman @Architectage5]

Pains me to see Allahabad as a fledgling backward provincial town today.

The Brain drain from Uttar Pradesh is real
and our Politicians are doing nothing to stop it.

[Aman @Architectage5]

Allahabad and Lucknow used be centres of Uttar Pradesh’s cultural sophistication and tehzeeb.

Late 20th century saw massive rural and small town immigration in the cities and traditional elites flying off to New Delhi, Bangalore or States, which resulted in demographic shift.

[Aman @Architectage5]

Allahabad held a Quasi-metropolitan status in British India. With a World-Class University and only High Court of Northern India.
A congregation of finest Literary and legal minds. Allahabad gave us 4 PMs and even the Rock street journal.

[Aman @Architectage5]

@gemsofbabus_ Lucknow used to be city of elite and cultured which has been completely overturned by mass dehati immigration and elites flying off to Delhi and United States.

[Aman @Architectage5]

@ShivaSerene @Jameson9822 @gemsofbabus_ @voice_of_LKO Yes it has changed for the worse. Lucknow used to be city of elites and cultured which has been completely overturned by mass dehati immigration and elites flying off to Bangalore and Delhi.

[Aman @Architectage5]

@lucknow_updates PR Project of BJP ably supported by their sycophants. Demanding no accountability and taking the City and State decade back with no tangible progress on ground.

[Aman @Architectage5]

@lucknow_updates No need to name everything after politicians. Propagates feudal mindset. Airports, Parks, road par banners, aur ab stations bhi inke naam.
Freedom Fighters should be only exemption.

[Aman @Architectage5]

@Sharmishta__19 Good to see you’re voicing opinions again. You’re a law graduate apply your knowledge to be more articulate (less slang more substance) and keep growing.

[Aman @Architectage5]

@sunilrathi123 @up_tales Mind u cities like Kanpur and Allahabad loomed large in national imagination during freedom struggle unlike today. They had a sophisticated urban character. Lost due to no vision of post 1980s politics and city elite migrating to Delhi or abroad.

[Aman @Architectage5]

@sunilrathi123 @up_tales Lucknow- made Capital, adorned with Vidhan Sabha, modernised Hazratganj (yes it was done in British era).

It was only Post independence where we floundered all the progress made in late 19th and early 20th century.
