This 4,500-year-old terracotta dice from the Indus-Saraswati Civilization is a powerful reminder of India’s living heritage. Dicing is also mentioned as a popular game in Rig and Atharva Vedas (two of the four sacred Vedic scriptures).
From symbols and craftsmanship to rituals, yogic practices, and collective memory, numerous elements of ancient Indian civilization continue to thrive in the daily social and religious life of Indian society across regions and communities.
Civilizational inheritance is not just about geography or ruins, it is defined by living customs, symbols, rituals, and unbroken cultural consciousness. India is the enduring living continuity of the Indus-Saraswati Civilization.

One more thing. Our 10 minute delivery promise is enabled by the density of stores around your homes. It’s not enabled by asking delivery partners to drive fast. Delivery partners don’t even have a timer on their app to indicate what was the original time promised to the customer.
After you place your order on Blinkit, it is picked and packed within 2.5 minutes. And then the rider drives an average of under 2kms in about 8 minutes. That's an average of 15kmph.
I understand why everybody thinks why 10 minutes must be risking lives, because it is indeed hard to imagine the sheer complexity of the system design which enables quick deliveries.
Also, if you've ever wanted to know why millions of Indians voluntarily take up platform work and sometimes even prefer it to regular jobs, JUST ASK any rider partner when you get your next food or grocery order.
You will be humbled by how rational and honest they will be with you.
Having said that, no system is perfect, and we are all for making it better than today. However, it is far from what it is being portrayed on social media by people who don't understand how our system works and why.
If I were outside the system, I would also believe that gig workers are being exploited, but that's not true.
Damn! No one on X thought of this creativity so far. At least I haven't seen any post like this. This will be a trend.
@elonmusk X should make this "Tap" an integral feature
Please award the guy/girl who came up with this design idea to use the way X cuts off photos to create this Vande Bharat mosaic.
Ingenious.
Tap their creativity, give them a team, and let's push India's narrative to the world using such talent in innovative ways.
We can mock this as Hera Pheri, but far from a con, it is American AI alchemy:
An economic multiplier that aids risk-sharing, tech moonshots at no costs spared, and symbiotic bets that will catapult the US to the forefront of AI supremacy and keep it ahead.
Imagine TCS, Infy, Wipro, Ola, and few startups are aiding each other like this to create an ecosystem that takes big risks on shared capital and tech / services to create the next big thing for India?
Unfortunately, they won't risk investing their excess capital in their own R&D, forget aiding others or creating a non-zero-sum, economic multiplier + risk diffusion model like this.
And just one capital rich LIC invests in Adani and Reliance, the DS starts attacking it instigating Indians knowing the multiplier effect of such investments and the strength it gives Indian companies and India.
Goyal: Germany is asking for exemption from US sanctions on Russian oil
We've sorted out our the issues with Germany.
Goyal: Then why single out India?
It's a specific subsidiary in Germany in relation to Rosneft
Goyal: We also have a subsidiary in India
Well...
I present the newest member "Stupidity on Steroids" series - Sircar Sir. For ref 2012 to 2025:
1. HDFC grew from USd 28bn to 180bn
2. Kotak bank grew from INR 480bn to INR 4.4 trillion
3. SBI grew from INR 1.6trillion to INR 7 trillion
4. HUL grew from INR 1.6 trillion to INR 6 trillion
5. Nifty 50 grew from 4866 to 25,848
Most importantly, Bhartiya participation ( reflected in AUM of domestic funds) grew from INR 8.6 lakh crore to INR 75.6 lakh crore.
These modern buffoons in human form are saddened by wealth creation in India, by Indians for Indians.
Controversial but can we do away with political hoardings around Mumbai? The entire city has more hoardings than low cost housing for the residents. We as politicians ACROSS POLITICAL PARTIES need to do better and step up to eradicate this hoarding culture that is mushrooming all over especially during festivals, also they aren’t environment friendly either.
This is badass!
Switzerland at UN said, "We call on Indian govt to take effective measures to protect minorities and uphold free speech and free media."
India responded by calling Switzerland racist and xenophobic to their face and even offered to help them deal with it. Lol!
