Every political crisis in India was written somewhere before it happened. I find where.

@poojaofficial5 Group B Gazetted Officer getting a Bolero from UP government with licence registered to Uttarakhand.
Of course the story makes zero sense. Just like YRF’s upcoming release Alpha.

[Pooja @poojaofficial5]

Today, I visited a friend's house.

He is a Group B Gazetted Officer in the Uttar Pradesh Government.

A shiny Fortuner was parked outside his house,
But I always saw him going to office in Bolero.

Smiling, I asked him
"Buddy, when you own a ₹40 lakh Fortuner, why do you still travel in a ₹9 lakh Bolero ?"

He smiled and replied

"Because the Fortuner is mine,
but the Bolero is my identity."

I was a little surprised.

Then he explained

"All my official work is done in the Bolero provided by the government.

Wherever I go, people immediately understand that an officer has arrived just by looking at the vehicle.

The Fortuner gives comfort, but the Bolero carries a different sense of identity and responsibility."

Listening to him made me realize something

Not everything expensive creates status, and not everything that looks simple is ordinary.

Many times, true prestige comes not from the price tag,
but from the position and responsibility a person holds.

And maybe that's why people often give as much way to a government Bolero on the road
which sometimes even vehicles worth crores do not get.

What is the real prestige In your opinion,

In an expensive car,
or in the identity earned through hard work and position ?

@Jairam_Ramesh Jut a day before ekection results in Assam, Congress had sent their top money man to Guwahati who was teying to bring in 500 cr to get BPF MLAs to defect in case BJP did not get the required majority. And then they talk about engineering. If shamelessness had a face.

[Jairam Ramesh @Jairam_Ramesh]

Never before has anybody tried to engineer a two-third majority for his party in the Lok Sabha as the Union Home Minister is desperately doing these days in the run-up to the Monsoon Session of Parliament. The self-styled Chanakya had been humiliated on April 17 2026 when the NDA could not get the requisite two-third majority and the dangerous Constitution Amendment Bill dealing with delimitation had been rejected by a convincing margin.

Stung by that resounding defeat, he is now busy breaking Opposition parties and making a complete mockery of democracy. The fight is on. His evil designs must not and will not succeed.

[Amit Malviya @amitmalviya]

The selective outrage is amusing.

During the 2024 Lok Sabha elections, the Returning Officer in Birbhum rejected the nomination of BJP’s candidate, a former IPS officer, over a No Dues Certificate that had to be issued by Mamata Banerjee’s government. He approached the Supreme Court. The petition was dismissed. BJP had to field a replacement candidate at the last minute.

In Basirhat, however, the Returning Officer accepted the nomination of the TMC candidate even though most fields in his form were marked “NA” and he too had not submitted a No Dues Certificate despite being a former MP. His nomination sailed through.

BJP challenged the matter through an election petition in the High Court. The case is now before the Supreme Court.

Curiously, the same voices now lamenting the lack of an immediate remedy were nowhere to be seen then. No accusations of Mamata Banerjee influencing district administrations. No claims of the ECI acting in concert with the ruling party.

The legal position was the same then as it is now.

Of course, it helps explain the sudden concern when the complainant’s wife is a TMC MP and he himself appears to be aspiring for a Rajya Sabha berth.

[KV Iyyer - BHARAT 🇮🇳🇮🇱 @BanCheneProduct]

This is the condition of the Punjab mansion of Hindu businessman Todar Mal who paid 7,800 gold coins and bought 4 yards of land from the Mughal emperor Aurangzeb to bury the bodies of the 2 young sons and mother of Guru Gobind Singh on December 13, 1705.

The Mughal faujdar Wazir Khan had ordered the two young children be bricked alive as they refused to accept Islam. When they died, their grandmother died of shock

The Mughals did not want to allow the cremation to humiliate the martyrs. They stipulated that the buyer can take only as much space as he could cover with give gold coins for the land. All the Sikh chiefs just stood helplessly

That's when Todar Mal produced the coins and bought the piece of land, and cremated the three bodies.

This is biggest irony of life, India is only country where its true heritage is hidden from next generation and falsehood Is taught.

[Rajdoot @KautilyaFiles]

In a previous post of mine, I had already predicted that Rajdeep and Sagarika will try hard to cosy upto Congress to secure a second RS term for Sagarika now that TMC is done and dusted. Very soon, Ghosewill allege ideological differences with TMC and join Congress. I give this six months.

However, even Rahul aint that dumb to accomodate her.

[Rajdoot @KautilyaFiles]

Sagarika believed in:
1. Tola baji of TMC
2. Goondaism of TMC
3. Rape culture of TMC further accentuated by bhaipo through thugs in Falta and Sandeshkhali.

Baaically Sagarika believed in personal gains and hence joined TMC as this was the only party stupid enough to give her a Rajya Sabha seat. First and the last time.

My prediction is that Bunty and Babli have already started contacting Congress and AAP for that RS seat since Mamta is incapable of giving them a chance next time. Sagarika is going to join a new party soon. In fact if BJP promises her a seat she will switch today.

[Sagarika Ghose @sagarikaghose]

The personal became the political for me in 2024. I joined public life because I passionately believe that the @narendramodi -led @BJP4India is destroying India’s precious democratic spaces and I believed and believe in the Opposition’s constitutional fight against the anti-constitutional, communal minded Modi-led BJP bent on fomenting religious wars. I believed, believe and will ALWAYS believe in the remarkable leadership of @MamataOfficial , an inspiration for all women, indeed all citizens in her unflagging courage and value-based politics. What strikes me as bizarre is this culture of winning on one party’s symbol and under the name of one particular leader and then abandoning that party and the leader the moment it faces defeat. If your convictions change with the election result, were they convictions at all? You contest under a party symbol. You ask voters to trust a party platform. You win because of that party’s support and leaders appeal.  Then the party loses and you immediately switch sides.
If loyalty lasts only as long as victory, what exactly was the mandate for? Or is it when Shri @AmitShah and his cronies make a phone call, you obediently line up and all morality ends? SHAME.

[THE SKIN DOCTOR @theskindoctor13]

Of the 20 Lok Sabha MPs reportedly defecting from TMC, the most tragically funny case would be Yusuf Pathan.

Just a few days ago, rumours were doing the rounds that Yusuf Pathan had refused to vacate his seat for Mamata Banerjee. Yusuf promptly came online and dismissed it as fake news.

Mamata Banerjee must have been relieved. After all, Yusuf's clarification suggested that he remained loyal and would probably step aside if she ever actually wanted the seat.

The irony now is that Yusuf is not merely refusing to vacate the seat that TMC gave him, worse, he is taking that very seat into the BJP camp and using it to strengthen the NDA.

No wonder, out of those twenty, Mahua Moitra specifically named and targeted Yusuf Pathan, calling him shameless. Lol!

[Sandeep Mall @SandeepMall]

Interesting fact - In 1985, Prime Minister Rajiv Gandhi launched a campaign to cut bureaucratic red tape and eliminate useless government paperwork. During an audit of recurring official reports, inspectors discovered a bizarre monthly document landing at the central government headquarters in New Delhi.
The report originated from the District Collector's office in Tiruchirappalli (Trichy), Tamil Nadu. Every month, officials compiled a report regarding the export of local cigars meant for former British Prime Minister Winston Churchill. The report traveled from the district office to the Madras Secretariat, and finally to the central government in New Delhi.
The content of this monthly report was always a single word: "Nil."
The bureaucracy had faithfully prepared, signed, and routed this report every month for forty years.

I want to do a public service announcement for people who are desperate to come to Europe. I have seen many, many desperate Indian students doing 12 hours of delivery/ restaurant / gig work, extremely underpaid and abused in Berlin and this really bothers me.

Please don’t take out huge loans and go
into debt to get admitted to third rate private universities here. You will face extreme hardship, both mental and financial, for little to no reward.

There many universities in Germany which are essentially visa mills. They sell you a dream- that if you manage to somehow get to Europe, you will be financially sorted for life and there will be an abundance of job offers for you to pick and choose from, once you graduate.

These universities are very scammy, have a low barrier to entry (you can more or less buy a seat), and extremely low teaching standards. Students who come here are forced to take up underpaid and often illegal gig work to survive and they are easy targets for shady companies.

And then they realize that their university degree is pretty much worthless. Both in Germany and in India.

If you do want to come to Germany, apply
to the state run universities here. These are usually cheap but very competitive and have usually quite high standards.

Please don’t take out a 30 lakh loan, or sell family land to fall for a scam. If something sounds too good to be true, it probably is not true.

Also the Indians on X who are relentlessly advising young people to get out of the country by hook or by crook, should perhaps exercise some caution knowing that there are impressionable young people out there who might do stupid things.

[Rajdoot @KautilyaFiles]

This is again I am afraid an uninformed opinion. The CCS Conduct Rules 1964 govern all administrative procedures relating to suspensions, etc. In this case, the concerned officer was suspended, disciplinary proceedings were initiated and chargesheet was probably issed to him. What should concern everyone more is whether major penalties were imposed on him. For eg, if his batch year has been changed the he may never get to become secretary of any Union Ministry. At present GoI can only work with available procedures. Whatever you are suggesting will automatically be set aside by CAT and Higher Courts.

Government of India does not work on raw emotions so unless you suggest amendment in CCS Conduct Rules, nothing else will matter. Rest is just optics.

[Nalini Unagar @NalinisKitchen]

Dear @NarendraModi,

Is it really necessary to reappoint the same IAS or IPS officers who have previously been caught in bribery or corruption cases? Can't we suspend them permanently? Just throw them out of the system. No post, not even a small job. Transfers are just a way to fool the public.

But today, an officer caught taking a bribe is suspended for some time and then given a powerful position again, where they can do the same thing all over again.

If a thief is caught, we don't hand him the keys and ask him to guard the house.

Just because the court cannot prove them guilty does not mean they are innocent. They know how to play the legal system.

Corruption is so common that even ordinary people face demands for bribes in government offices. Instead of giving the same officers another chance again and again, why not promote honest officers?

I know it.
You know it.
People know it.

[Rajdoot @KautilyaFiles]

Another one person anecdote non verifiable but made to look like public sector banks dont respect HNIs. In any public sector bank even the smallest, the moment they see the account details and if someone has a comfortable 7 digits then also the manager personally escorts the customer out of the bank.
She with that kinda money must probably have heard of HNI accounts. Tell her to get on of those.

[Subramoney.com @pvsubramanyam]

I know a person whose balance is in 9 digits in the savings bank - on and off. The way her bank treats her is spine chilling. She stands in a Q for getting things done. In a pvt sec bank, she will not have to move a finger!

The Indus Saraswati Civilisation reflects a sophisticated urban tradition marked by innovation, planned settlements, water management, and civic organisation.

Come explore the brilliance of this around 5,000-year-old culture at the Harappan Gallery in the @NMnewdelhi (under the aegis of @MinOfCultureGoI)!

This isn't just about revisiting history; it's about rediscovering the origins of one of India's greatest civilizations.
