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.

सभी बहुत चिंतित हैं। सरकार को बात करनी चाहिए। सरकार नहीं करती है तो समाज को आगे आना चाहिए। सोनम के साथ-साथ छात्र भी अनशन पर बैठे हैं। कितने साल तक परीक्षाओं में चोरी और धांधली को यह देश स्वीकार करेगा। 13 साल बीत गए फिर भी परीक्षाएँ विश्वसनीय नहीं हो सकी हैं। बात केवल परीक्षा की नहीं है, पढ़ाई के मामले में भी जो नुकसान हुआ है, वहाँ से वापसी करना संभव नहीं है।

इसी अवसर पर गंगा की सफाई और अविरलता को लेकर प्रो जी डी अग्रवाल के अनशन को याद करने की ज़रूरत है। 2018 में 109 दिनों के अनशन के बाद उनकी मौत हो गई थी। तब काफी सवाल उठे थे। मीडिया की पुरानी रिपोर्ट आप देख सकत�� हैं। उन्होंने प्रधानमंत्री मोदी को तीन तीन पत्र लिखे। उन पत्रों को निकाल कर पढ़ सकते हैं। गंगा के लिए प्रो जी डी अग्रवाल ने जान दे दी और गंगा के नाम पर राजनीति करने वालों ने उन्हें भुला दिया। गंगा की समस्याओं का समाधान करने के बजाए गंगा के घाट पर आरती का आयोजन कर लोगों के सवालों की धारा मोड़ दी गई। अच्छा होता कि प्रो जी डी अग्रवाल को सुना जाता, गंगा भी साफ होती और तब उसके किनारे आरती की शोभा और ��िव्य होती। जो मीडिया जंतर मंतर नहीं जा पा रहा है वह गंगा के नाम पर प्रो जी डी अग्रवाल के अनशन की कहानी के पन्ने फिर से पलट सकता है। गंगा के लिए तो बोल ही सकते हैं।

ये है मीटर के ज़रिये हो रहे अत्याचार और भ्रष्टाचार की अद्भुत बारात।

ये ‘प्रीपेड पीड़ित’ ही भाजपा का जुलूस भी निकालेंगे।

[The Still Point @thestillpoint_]

Imagine a child sleeping next to its parents and dreaming it is being beaten or is painfully sick. The parents cannot help the child no matter how much it suffers … If the child could awaken itself, it could be freed of this suffering automatically. In the same way, one who realizes that his own Mind is Buddha frees himself instantly from sufferings arising from the ceaseless change of birth and death. If a Buddha could prevent it, do you think he would allow even one sentient being to fall into hell?

What is obstructing realization? Nothing but your own half-hearted desire for truth. Think of this and exert yourself to the utmost.

Hey @NotionHQ , In table view of a database, moving coloumns from one place to another is very difficult in mobile devices. Please make it seamless.

The angel is free because of his knowledge, the beast because of his ignorance. Between the two remains the son of man to struggle.

इस बात का क्या मतलब? Burden of proof बीमित पर कैसे हो सकता है? कल को बीमार होने पर कंपनी कहेगी कि मरीज की गलती से बीमार हुआ हम क्लेम नहीं देंगे…

📢 महत्वपूर्ण 

कुछ मीडिया हाऊसेस  द्वारा दो-पहिया (Two wheeler) वाहनों पर टोल टैक्स लगाए जाने की भ्रामक खबरें फैलाई जा रही है। ऐसा कोई नि���्णय प्रस्तावित नहीं हैं। दो-पहिया वाहन के टोल पर पूरी तरह से छूट जारी रहेगी। बिना सच्चाई जाने भ्रामक खबरें फैलाकर सनसनी निर्माण क��ना स्वस्थ पत्रकारिता के लक्षण नहीं है। मैं इसकी निंदा करता हूं।
