A father in Nagaur, Rajasthan reported his missing minor daughter.
Instead of searching, police allegedly asked him to pay:
• ₹51,000 for a search vehicle • ₹20,000 for fuel, food & lodging • Around ₹1 lakh in total
He mortgaged his 5-bigha land to arrange the money.
After receiving the money police started searching.
His daughter was found after 25 days.
First Day , First Scam.. booked first trip of Bharat taxi 🚕 to support drivers.. in Ahmedabad to Hometown @coopbharattaxi
App says, Toll is included, Driver asked 250 rs toll in midnight 2 AM and i had to pay not to create scene..
Greed has no limits.. scam continues
In July, we will hit TWO years since the incident.
We are working on WITHDRAWING the case.
Not because we were threatened or bribed, but because our justice system is a sorry excuse.
Judges have changed. Matter has stayed. No one has taken my statement since the complaint.
To be frank , her objective assessment of risk to herself is spot on. She's a rich woman and this is India. There's almost no chance she will be hanged. A far poorer Sonam Raghuvanshi managed to come out within a year.
She will probably come out soon, get a new passport and move to some foreign country. After a few years, maybe even a Netflix limited series.
My father retired as Director, Central Ground Water Board.
Do you know what that means?
That, he had the power to certify whether a patch of land had ground water reserves or not!
Many businessmen approached him to certify that their plots didn't have water underneath and that they could start their businesses.
He was bribed, cajoled and even threatened.
No less than Devi Lal tried to persuade him- my father refused.
At the time of his retirement, my father had just a lambretta and a house in Lucknow. That's all.
Had asked this question directly to @KartiPC in 2011.
I guess this was right after I identified his location from his tweet in 2011. He used to speak to users back then.

🚗 Wrong side of the road. Blocking traffic.
Not for a moment → for 15 minutes.
He didn't move.He stared.
He waited → like he wanted a confrontation.
Auto drivers, truck drivers, fellow commuters → all asked him to clear the way.
His ego said no.
He only backed off when he realized the dashcam was rolling and the crowd wasn't backing down.
This isn't his first offense.
Multiple unpaid fines.
Signal jumps. Illegal parking.
A repeat offender → still on the road.
What exactly was the mistake here?
Driving correctly?
If this had happened at night,On an empty stretch → this story could have ended very differently.
@blrcitytraffic → how long do chronic offenders get to keep driving like this?
The Tomato Fiasco
In the 1970s, an Italian NGO set up an agricultural project in a fertile Zambian valley to "save" the locals from starvation.
The locals had zero interest in agriculture. Instead of asking why they didn't farm, the Italians simply paid them to plant Italian seeds.
The tomatoes grew beautifully. However, right when the produce was ripe and ready to be picked, a herd of 200 hippos came out of the river and devoured the entire crop overnight.
When the shocked Italians pointed out the tragedy of the hippos, the locals simply replied, "Yes, that’s why we have no agriculture here." When the Italians asked why they hadn't mentioned this, the locals responded, "You never asked." (as told by Dr. Ernesto Sirolli.)
Trump never asked why the pool is the way it is.

Don't hit me - Biker requests to Police
This is the kind of Daylight hooliganism happening in MMR.
Slapped, choked, grabbed with collar and thrashed, dragged to another spot and beaten up again, the only thing left was that he takes out his guns, points it towards him and shoots
That will also happen if we don't resist and speak out against such Police Excesses
A Chinese "leftover" Woman has a meltdown at weekly bride's market in China
She pleads her case with parents of potential groom's, who have travelled from neighbouring city to look for a bride for their Sons
She shouts that she earns 500,000 Yuan and has a good job, yet no one entertains her because she is over 30
In China, Women over 30 are labelled as "leftover women" and are not considered marriageable material, no matter how educated or successful they are

There is a new scam by @IndiGo6E these days.
When you web check-in, they don’t show any free seat options to select.
If you skip seat selection and choose auto-assigned seating, they say you'll receive your boarding pass by email around 4 hours before departure. In my case, it never arrived.
When I called customer care to ask why the boarding pass wasn't sent, they told me that auto-assigned seating can only be done 12 hours before departure. If it isn't assigned by then, the airport has to allocate the seat. They also said they have no way to contact the airport.
So you are forced to reach the airport at least 1 hour early for physical check-in. If you arrive close to the check-in cutoff, they may refuse to issue a boarding pass and say you missed the check-in deadline.
Technically, there are no FREE seats for web check-in.
Everybody is out here scamming common people because apparently there’s nowhere for us to go and complain. Well done!
The truth is out! Sacks of undelivered mail were found ROTTING inside the postwoman's room in DHARCHULA, Pithoragarh. The inspection confirmed wat locals said fr months. Now dismiss them for not DOING their duty and threatening locals. @IndiaPostOffice
