@ananyashasau @sriramranga Got mine for the first time in 2005. The police had asked me for ₹. I had ₹15 in my pocket. He yelled and let me go, but got the passport, no problem. The renewals since have been very very smooth.
@mayukh_panja I have renewed my passport twice while outside India and have gotten police verification done in India for a trusted traveller program. All three experiences have been very straightforward and pain free.
@priest_099 The k stands for kilo. It should always be small. The CAPITAL K means Kelvin - the SI unit of temperature. So a kilometre is a 1000 metres. A kilogram is a 1000 grams. A kilowatt is a 1000 watts and so on.
@sardesairajdeep How is that a twist? Family members claiming an accused is innocent is for the most part, and that’s an understatement, is the norm. That’s what everyone would expect to happen.
@MarioNawfal Rivalry? Bhutto said and Zia formalised their military doctrine as “bleed India with a thousand cuts”. Benazir spoke about chopping up the body of a sitting head of state of J&K. The continue to support terrorists who routinely try to kill unarmed Indians. That’s just rivalry?
Today, India takes a defining step in its civil nuclear journey, advancing the second stage of its nuclear programme.
The indigenously designed and built Prototype Fast Breeder Reactor at Kalpakkam has attained criticality.
This advanced reactor, capable of producing more fuel than it consumes, reflects the depth of our scientific capability and the strength of our engineering enterprise. It is a decisive step towards harnessing our vast thorium reserves in the third stage of the programme.
A proud moment for India. Congratulations to our scientists and engineers.
@ThinkingRakesh@ndtv The airport is NOT the one accommodating the procession. The Lord of Thiruvananthapuram is accommodating the airport. The land is granted to the airport.
Congress did not just govern weakly. It perfected the art of distracting India from its own incompetence before 2014.
And the tweets below are not going anywhere, even if the party and it's minions try to whitewash them.
When India needed spine, Congress party offered surrender; when India needed clarity, Congress manufactured distraction.
From 26/11 to any other terrorist attacks planned and executed in India by Pakistan, the Congress formula can be summed in one line: fail on national interest, then flood the public space with noise, diversion, and non-issues so nobody focuses on the rot.
They did not just govern badly. They perfected the art of weakening India and then changing the subject.
The Congress party was and remains actively a machine for sabotaging national interest and then gaslighting the country about who was to blame.
@tishasaroyan@peeleraja Let it go Ruchikaji. There are stupid people who are clever enough to know they are stupid and then there are pale rajas, who can’t even do that.
@carlwheless 2-part answer. 1. Aversion if anything if is shown by missionaries towards our traditions, beliefs, customs, and faith. 2. No aversion to Christianity, but to arrogantly being told we are sinful, need saving, and our traditions, beliefs, customs, and faith are wrong and sinful.
@talk2trav@nikitabier Adversarial nations using bots and sock puppets to shape information environments in any country can be argued as an act of war, even non-Western countries. Sadly, this topic is considered relevant only when western countries are impacted.
@Priyaa_Purohit Why not book it online like the rest of us? My mother in her 70s does it with her phone. My sister in her 50s too. The cylinder is delivered home; involves checking OTP. Last delivery was last week for my mother. Nobody has had to go pick it up for years.
