Dear twitter, This is my mother's words about my brother. Please show some love for my brother and mum who is an introvert and encourage her to write more. For all the talent she possesses I always feel she must write more. #cerebralpalsy #words #Disability #OPFORD

I think India is basically an anarchy which somehow survives because a few people have the conscience, morality or spirituality to do what they are supposed to do.

I read a case in Trivandrum about a lady who wanted to buy a Skoda car to fulfill her dying mother's last wish.

She called Skoda on where to purchase the car. Skoda Customer care asked her to go to their Authorized dealer in Trivandrum pay an advance, to book the car, which she duly paid.

Then the dealer asked her for 5 Lakhs to expedite delivery, which she did. This was for her dying mother after all.

Parallely, HDFC bank processed her car loan and paid the money directly to the dealer without asking her.

In total she payed close to Rs 14 Lakhs of her money to buy a Skoda Slavia. For her mother.

Then put of the blue the dealership shut shop. She didn't get her car.

So logically she approached Skoda.

And what do they do?

Skoda being Skoda, has washed their hands off this matter saying they recieved no money from the dealer. So they cannot give her a car.

Apparently they are not responsible for the actions of "Skoda Authorized Dealers" recommended by Skoda Customer care.

On top of that, They even asked her to pay another 16 Lakhs, to their Ernakulam dealership, so that she can buy a brand new Skoda Slavia, because of it has amazing build, high safety rating and awesome drive quality.

Poor lady has been fighting a case in the courts for the last two years, where Skoda is resolutely determined to deny her a car that she paid for.

She is making rounds to our courts, paying for lawyers and paying interest and EMIs for the car loan, for the car she never got.

Because a Skoda Authorized dealer, recommended by Skoda, ran away with her money and Skoda is refusing to take ownership for this fiasco.

Can you imagine a functioning country with a remotely active legal system, where a person Authorized by the company, can take money from a customer in the name of the company, run away, and company can claim zero responsibility for it?

In India you can.

Skoda has done it in this case.

Which is why, in India if you pay for something and get it, remember it is because the person giving it you, does it out of his own morality and conscience.

Not because of the repercussions of not adhering to a contract.

Our entire society is run because few people are conscientious enough to do what is right.

Not because of our systems and legal process.

Which is wrong.

Would Skoda have dared to pull this stunt in a western country?

They wouldn't.

P:S: Her mother, for whom she bought this car, passed away two years ago without seeing the car.

P:P:S : The same Skoda refunded the full amount and gave additional compensation to an Indian govt babu because of a repainted side panel, but is refusing to even hear a genuine issue of a common person. Are we tax payers that powerless in this country?

P:P:P:S: why the fuck it is always Skoda?

Here's the sad story if you want to read it.

[Colin Millar @Millar_Colin]

Worth reflecting: a footballer is viewed negatively on the basis that he mobilised compassion towards UK kids in poverty and specifically those going hungry in school - driven by his lived experience. And how these talentless ghouls are employed based on their opposition to this.

If making money is your top priority, find remote work from India. Don't relocate to Europe.

If you care about other things, like travel, quality of life and working system, move to Europe.

Simple as that.

It's 2023 and I'm not sure if anyone cares for #netneutrality in India anymore, but Jio, Vi and Airtel are coming for it.

Don't take my word for it. Here are excerpts from their submissions to @TRAI (uploaded last night) :

This was this year. Barcelona Femeni - 9 of whom are now world champions with Spain - won the Supercopa de España: organised by the Spanish FA.

Players had to collect the medals themselves (!). No dignitaries. No ceremony. No Rubiales. The same FA now piggybacking on success.

What is the cost over time, of having a kid? Roughly speaking, about 1 crore over 20 years. If you include a foreign degree, cost will go up to 5-6 crores. Don't panic, this is spread over 20 years and accounts for inflation. Good story by @jashkriplani. https://t.co/YFi3Sl4g91

Mary Earps has just saved a penalty in a World Cup final and you STILL can’t buy her goalkeeper shirt. It doesn’t get much more glorious than that as a ‘keeper, and it’ll inspire so many. Sort it out @Nike
