An Open Letter to the Jantar Mantar protestors:
My dear young friends,
I address you today not as a politician or an MP, but as someone deeply troubled by what is happening to your generation of young Indians.
This is personal for me. I was born to a middle-class family: my father was a salaried newspaper employee, my mother a homemaker, with three children to educate on one income. For a family like ours, merit was not a slogan. Scholarships, fair examinations, honest results — these were the only way one salary could carry three children's dreams.
I went to school in Mumbai and Kolkata, to college here in Delhi, topped the University and earned admission into IIM — and chose instead to follow my passion for international affairs, in America, on a scholarship. Nothing was inherited; everything was earned by hard work and yes, Exams.
So I know that a fair, merit-based system is the only ladder for young people from lower and middle-income families to climb up. When that ladder is broken — papers leaked, examinations cancelled, trust destroyed — the children of the rich and powerful do not suffer. They have other ladders. It is your dreams, and your families' sacrifices (and tragically, in some homes, young lives themselves) that are betrayed.
To the young people gathered at Jantar Mantar, and those raising your voices peacefully across India: this country hears you. Your anger is not indiscipline — it is the anguish of a generation that did everything right and was still betrayed . You are not alone.
And to the millions of young Indians watching quietly: your generation is not a problem to be managed. You are the answer to India's future. Do not lose hope. This ladder will be rebuilt — by you, and by every Indian who stands with you.
To Shri Sonam Wangchuk-ji, my heartfelt appeal: please end your fast. You have awakened the conscience of the nation; that is what a fast is meant to do. India needs your voice for the long road ahead.
With Parliament in session again from Monday, we will have an opportunity to raise the students’ issues in the highest forum of our democracy. That’s where the problem should be addressed, not by fasting unto death. Please heed my plea.
And finally, to the Government: I respectfully urge you to reach out and engage in the dialogue our democracy owes its young citizens. That is not weakness; that is statesmanship.
@Dyson@AskDyson@Dyson, @AskDyson, @Dyson_SG — can someone stand up for a customer caught in an unfair situation? I’m requesting a goodwill exchange or trade-in for the Singapore (230 V) model. case #39460014
@Dyson Bought a @Dyson#Airwrap in Vegas on Aug 27. Told the store I’m based in Singapore with no US address or phone, they put the store’s address and a random number to complete the sale. Now,new US export rules( Aug 29)block me from returning it from here.SGD 700+ paperweight!
These new regulations eliminated the de minimis exemption, requiring all electronics shipments (even <$800) to be tracked, taxed, and routed through customs. As a result, couriers halted US-bound deliveries. I’m stuck @Dyson@AskDyson
@DHFWKA@DHFWKA , COVID vaccinations are not available anywhere in Bangalore. I have been roaming around and calling hospitals but none of the hospitals seem to have the vaccines. The cowin app is not showing any data!

Flights r n essential service & not a luxury for Ladakh, when all roads r blocked for six months.
There must be a ceiling on Ladakh airfares.
For whole of Feb Del- Leh tickets are costlier than Del- London.
An old couple who escaped from a major accident due to a pot hole. The same old couple later filled the pot hole with themselves. The concerned authorities do not work on this act, then people will do it voluntarily but to what extent!! #Bangalore#BBMP
ये व्यक्ति रे०स्टेशन मथुरा जं० से अपनी माँ के साथ सो रहे महज 7 माह के बच्चे को उठाकर ले गया।
इस व्यक्ति को पकड़वाने में मदद कीजिये।
आप सिर्फ Retweet कर इसके फ़ोटो/वीडियो को Groups में share कर दीजिये, विशेष कर कासगंज, बदायूँ और बरेली साइड में।
मुझे भरोसा है ये अवश्य पकड़ा जाएगा।
A 100-yr-old tree was being cut in Vile Parle area today. I asked BMC officers for permission under which it was being done. I was later forcefully put in police van (in pic 2-screengrab from viral video) & was threatened with an FIR against me: Abhay Azad, Environmental activist
