Peeps out there thought "Dr S. Jaishankar" was just talking. Now they know he was predicting what would happen to the West (UK/U.S/Canada/France?etc) if they kept playing with the Punjab Khalistani crowd.
He frikin nailed it. 🇮🇳🧐🇬🇧🇺🇸🇨🇦 Pay attention, World

Abhijeet Dipke, an Indian 🇮🇳 national facing criminal charges in India, is getting deported back to India. And now he’s claiming that he’s coming to India for a revolution, playing the victim card, and targeting both India 🇮🇳 and America 🇺🇸, when in reality, he’s getting deported back to India!
Stop this drama Mr Abhishek Dipke (the so called fonder of Cockroach Janta Party) 🪳and show us the passport stamp if you have guts!
🇺🇸🇮🇳 A big thank you to everyone who helped me through this whole process!
Another day of making America a safer place for all Americans by deporting so-called leaders who incite violence among students and Gen Z and violate the rules of their temporary visas while living in America.
Make America Safe Again 🇺🇸❤️

No system in the world is 100% foolproof - even the most secure vaults have been broken in
Papers leak because there are takers. It is the chalta hai attitude that we grow up with. Bribing a traffic police to escape a challan, paying money to expedite work, using influence to cut queues etc
When children watch parents do this, they grow up believing cheating is ok.
Corruption takes place when the population’s values decay & sad to say (because I seldom get self deprecating) we are a total chalta hai nation
Despite our leader @narendramodi being a man of 100% integrity, many of us are unable to even develop 10% of his character & values
This is an unbelievable piece of work by Sarthak and something that requires amplification.
Let me explain what he found, in simple terms.
Sarthak is a Class 12 student from the 2025-26 batch, one of the 17 lakh students whose answer sheets went through CBSE's new On-Screen Marking system.
He spent days reading through CBSE's evaluation tenders, scraped all 576 tenders CBSE has issued, and tracked how the rules changed across three versions of the same tender.
The core finding is that the company that won the contract to scan and grade 17 lakh students' answer sheets is Coempt Eduteck.
Coempt used to be called Globarena Technologies. Globarena was the company behind the 2019 Telangana intermediate exam disaster, where software failures led to 3.8 lakh students getting wrong or missing marks, and 23 students died by suicide.
A government committee found systemic failure and negligence. Six months later, Globarena rebranded to Coempt Eduteck.
So a company with that track record won a contract to handle 17 lakh CBSE students. Sarthak's investigation is about how the rules were rewritten to let that happen.
The tender was issued three times.
> First tender, February 2025. It existed, then disappeared from the public GeM portal. Sarthak scraped all 576 CBSE tenders and this one was missing from the archive entirely.
> Second tender, May 2025. Four companies applied including TCS and Coempt. All four failed the technical evaluation. Cancelled.
> Third tender, August 2025. Coempt won. Between the second and third tender, a series of rule changes happened, and every single one made it easier for Coempt to qualify.
Here is what changed, one by one.
01. The old rules disqualified any company with a history of abandoning work, failing to complete contracts, or financial weakness. The new rules deleted this clause entirely. Coempt's Telangana history stopped being a barrier.
02. The old rules disqualified any company that was "blacklisted earlier." The new rules changed this to "currently blacklisted." Because Globarena rebranded after Telangana, removing the word "earlier" effectively erased their past.
03. The rules required Rs 50 crore average turnover over three years. Coempt's exact average came to Rs 50.86 crore. They cleared the bar by less than 1%. Earlier, a smaller company had asked CBSE to lower the bar to Rs 30 crore for fairer competition. CBSE refused. So the bar was kept high enough to block small players, but sat exactly low enough for Coempt to scrape through.
04. Software maturity is measured on the CMMI scale, 1 to 5. The old rules required Level 5. The new rules dropped it to Level 3. Coempt is a Level 3 company.
05. The cooling-off period for engaging retired CBSE officials was cut from two years to one. This makes it easier to use recently retired insiders to influence the process.
06. The old rules required experience with large projects of at least 5 lakh students each. The new rules removed the student count and counted cumulative answer-book volume across small projects instead. Coempt has many small fragmented university contracts. This helped Coempt and hurt TCS.
07. The old rules required bidders to own their own data centre and disaster recovery centre on Indian soil. The new rules allowed third-party MeitY-empanelled cloud hosting. Coempt runs on AWS and Azure. This helped Coempt and hurt TCS, which owns its own data centres. It also means student data is no longer on sovereign, Indian infrastructure.
08. The old rules required the bidder to own or control the complete source code of its software. The new rules deleted this. Coempt's platform runs on Microsoft's proprietary IIS, which they don't own.
09. A last-minute corrigendum, issued right before bid submission, removed CBSE's own power to blacklist the firm if its software failed catastrophically. So even a Telangana-scale failure couldn't get Coempt banned from future government tenders.
10. The penalty structure shifted from punishing mistakes to punishing delays. The old rules fined the vendor for wrong scanning, merged pages, and unscanned books. The new rules dropped those and instead levied Rs 50,000 per day for delays. This incentivises rushed scanning over accurate scanning.
11. The old rules had a hard accuracy threshold, error rate not to exceed 0.5%. The new rules removed this number entirely.
12. The old rules specified proper book and robotics scanners. The new rules just say "sufficient scanners." The definition was vague enough that, as Sarthak notes, the scanning could be done with a phone on a stand.
13. On the security side, the contract required a VAPT (vulnerability and penetration test) certified by CERT-In before go-live, and a restricted beta phase before launch. The system clearly wasn't restricted, because the other researcher, Nisarga, was able to access it and find vulnerabilities four days before go-live. So the mandatory security audit appears to have been bypassed.
These are more than a dozen rule changes, all between the failed tender and the winning tender, all pushing in the same direction, all benefiting the one company with the worst track record in the field.
The security holes Nisarga found last week now have an explanation. The system was built by a vendor that was specifically allowed to skip the security certification, the source code ownership, the data sovereignty, and the quality thresholds the original rules demanded.
Following things need to happen immediately;
1. An immediate CAG audit of the tender process.
2. A parliamentary debate on the topic.
3. An independent investigation into
> Why the first tender vanished?
> Why the disqualification clauses were deleted?
> Why the turnover bar was held exactly where it was?
> Why the security level was dropped?
> Why the blacklisting power was removed at the last moment?
Sarthak, this is genuinely exceptional investigative work. Far better than most journalists with full resources ever manage. Take a bow. :)
@RasielPCorp@thewitcher Are you insane? Migrating Witcher 3 to Unreal would mean making a remake, which they are not. They migrated to UE5 only for Witcher 4, but that doesn't mean they can't use RedEngine to for older games. Both RedEngine 3 and 4 are at their disposal to use however they please.
@ponyboy818@SynthPotato@thewitcher@Fools_Theory Mine's at 377 hours. With the remaining B&W content and the new DLC, it could go past 500 hours lol. No other singleplayer game have reached such heights for me. Witcher 3 will always have a special place in my heart. I may play once again with RT when I buy a new GPU.
@kasperskyyyyyy@thewitcher same here. If it doesn't run, I'll just play it on linux. I have Windows 10 and CachyOS on dual boot. Like you, I refuse to move to Windows 11. I'll rather switch to Linux full time than use Windows 11.
Medallion's humming... that can only mean one thing! It's time to announce The Witcher 3: Wild Hunt - Songs of the Past! ⚔️
This brand new expansion for The Witcher 3: Wild Hunt will take you to the Path with Geralt of Rivia once more. It’s being co-developed with @Fools_Theory and is coming to PC, Xbox Series X|S, and PlayStation 5 in 2027. Stay tuned for more information in late summer. ⏰
@SynthPotato@thewitcher@Fools_Theory I played it in 2021, then again in 2023. Now, on my third playthrough, having finished the main game, Hearts of Stone DLC, and about 25% in Blood and Wine. Will stop my playthrough now and start when the update arrives. Want to play with higher graphics now.
