Before saving a man from suicide.
World: Everyone, silent. The responder is trying to make the person understand. Let the situation remain calm.
India: "Aeee, pakad! Ooo, pakad na... arre... kya kar raha hai woh aadmi, ch****? Aise pakdega kya?"
After saving a man from suicide.
World: "Son, keep calm. You're safe now. We're here to help you. Let's get you somewhere safe and talk, okay?"
India: "Aeee, maar! Maar reee... maar MC ko, maar BC ko..."
Youth are anti-establishment by nature. It's basic science. Youth naturally gravitates toward rebellion because questioning existing structures becomes part of forming an independent identity.
The urge is less about detailed policy content and more about belonging, purpose, and feeling part of something larger than oneself. That is why generations repeatedly rally around symbols, slogans, and movements that become culturally "the thing" of their era.
Sometimes the cause is deeply thought through; sometimes it is romanticized and simplified. Figures like Che Guevara became global youth icons not because millions had carefully studied revolutionary economics or Latin American history, but because rebellion itself carries emotional appeal. A poster, a slogan, and a sense of standing against "the system" can become an identity.
That is why they tend to appropriate anything they feel can bring change, whether it is a song (e.g., Sadda Haq, ethe rakh), a movie (e.g., Rang De Basanti), a T-shirt (e.g., Che Guevara or Bob Marley), a singer (e.g., Sidhu Moosewala), a TV ad (e.g., Tata Tea Jaago Re), or a movement (e.g., India Against Corruption). This cockroach thing is the same. They feel it is going to bring some change.
They are in for disappointment and will soon lose interest after realizing that it is not a real movement, but just another page with the same propaganda posts they already see on other pages of a similar nature.
“God made all men equal; effort, courage, and competence made some men more equal than others.”
Rishi Biwal is one such man. He wanted to crack NEET and become a doctor, but life kept throwing challenges at him. The biggest one being his father, Dinesh Biwal, who disrupted his preparation by purchasing the leaked NEET paper for ₹10 lakh.
For others, that would have been enough to secure a top rank in NEET and achieve their dreams. But Rishi was different. He could not understand most of the questions, could not find the answers himself in the books, and was apparently too introverted to ask his father to hire a teacher to explain the answers and help him memorize them.
As a result, despite knowing the paper in advance, Rishi scored only 107 out of 720 and could not clear NEET.
Historians will remember Emperor Rishi The Unprepared as the only warrior in history who entered battle with the enemy’s strategy map, divine prophecy, inside informers, and a larger army, and still lost.
If the children of our politicians had to prepare for competitive exams instead of walking directly into political careers, they would understand the pain and frustration students go through when an examination paper is leaked.
Even when the examination is conducted successfully, results are often declared after a long wait. And after the results are announced, the recruitment process itself moves at an unbearably slow pace, leaving candidates stuck in uncertainty for years.
No one truly understands the mental, emotional, and financial toll this takes on aspirants. Students dedicate some of the most important years of their lives to preparation. They sacrifice time, opportunities, and personal happiness with the hope of securing a better future.
The recent NEET exam paper leak is only one example. Look at Education Minister Dharmendra Pradhan. It appears he neither understands nor acknowledges what responsibility and accountability truly mean when the future of an entire generation is at stake.
Unfortunately, paper leaks have become almost routine. Every year, one or another major examination is marred by leaks and irregularities, whether at the state level or the national level.
The real problem is that examination mafias have become entrenched within the system itself. They operate with the sole objective of making money, often with the protection or involvement of insiders.
Meanwhile, political parties focus more on blaming each other than on finding lasting solutions.
Many political leaders cannot truly relate to the struggles of ordinary aspirants because their own children seldom face the same battles. They do not experience the sleepless nights, the relentless pressure, the repeated postponements, and the crushing disappointment of seeing years of hard work undermined by corruption.
Students are not asking for favors. They are asking for fairness, transparency, accountability, and a system they can trust.
An aspirant's dream is not a statistic or a talking point, it is a life built on hope, sacrifice, and determination. Those dreams deserve protection, not betrayal.
“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.
