An Indian-origin techie in the Scotland shared his father’s reaction after being laid off from JP Morgan and the internet is calling it “King mentality.”

Instead of worrying about the lost job, his father focused on his son’s well-being, reminding him that a setback cannot define his worth or future.

Sometimes, a parent’s faith is the strongest career insurance. 🫶🇮🇳

Financial Times (Robin Wigglesworth): “In case you were wondering, the Strait of Hormuz is still closed. The US economy is propped up by an AI buzz that is increasingly fuelled by vast off-balance-sheet exposures. The Fed is possibly going to raise interest rates. China’s economy is still slowing. Yields everywhere are climbing, and Japan is suffering a bond crisis. Private credit is stressed. Virtually every measure of leverage is engorged. Asian geopolitics is messy and getting messier. Europe is Europe, and the UK is being particularly British. So what do the world’s leading capital allocators — the ‘bad boys and risk-takers’ who ‘put it all on the line every day’ — make of all this?... Fund managers are currently carrying one of the lowest levels of cash in nearly three decades… Equity allocations are the highest they’ve been since the 2021 euphoria… Optimism on corporate earnings is also the highest it’s been since 2021…”

After the #TransAmendmentAct, Partha Sarathi Biswas filed three RTIs to probe how it was shaped. What evidence informed it? Who was consulted?

The government's replies were far from transparent.

INTERESTING: Prime Minister’s Citizen Assistance and Relief in Emergency Situations (PM CARES) Fund, which was set up in March 2020 during COVID to deal with emergency/distress situations, has accumulated a corpus of Rs 8,452 crore by end of FY 2024-25, but just Rs 87 lakh was spent, as per audit reports released. Still NO information on source of funds. PM CARES has so far refused to divulge any details under RTI Act. 🙏

विशाखापट्टनम का पुराना एयरपोर्ट बंद…

कल आख़िरी उड़ान थी…

यहाँ काम करने वाले 200 जनों का स्टाफ़ एकदम से बेरोज़गार हो गया…

70 साल से ये एयरपोर्ट सेवाएँ दे रहा था…

नया एयरपोर्ट GMR कम्पनी द्वारा संचालित हो रहा है..

वहाँ नए और ज़्यादा Competitive लोग hire किए गए हैं…

पुराने लोगों के लिए उस भव्य एयरपोर्ट में जगह नहीं हैं

@narendramodi जी पहला लक्ष्य तो ये रखिए कि 2047 तक पासपोर्ट बिना घूस दिए बनने लगे। कर लेंगे न। विकसित भारत तो 3047 तक भी बन जाएगा इंतजार कर लेगी जनता। नेहरू जी आप भी न। मोदी जी क्या क्या ठीक करें। वैसे पुलिस वाला कह रहा सबका हिस्सा होता है क्या करें। समाजवादी राष्ट्र की जय हो।

Gen Alpha in Jharkhand often sits on the floor to eat their midday meals. Their plates show more rice (read carbs) and very little dal or nutritious vegetables. Eggs are also often missing.

The woman giving Nehru a peck on his cheek in full public view is none other than his sister Vijaylakshmi Pandit. And in other pic, Nehru is being given a kiss by his niece Nayantara Sehgal on his arrival at London airport in 1955. You can also see Sehgal’s mother, Vijaylakshmi Pandit who was the High Commissioner to UK at that time.
But again, Boomers from BJP and RSS have been sharing these misleading pics since decades despite knowing the fact. You @nishikant_dubey are not different.

VIDEO | Jan Suraaj Party leader Prashant Kishor says, "If your children are educated but unemployed, prepare their CVs highlighting their education and qualifications and send them to my office. We will try to help them find good private-sector jobs... Government jobs may not be possible, but we will certainly try to help them secure good private-sector employment... Send the CVs to our office. We will try our best..."

Government clearly knows what's wrong with healthcare in India.

An exhaustive report tabled on 7th Aug in Rajya Sabha talks about alarming issues with healthcare in India.

Some of the things I read about:

- Govt Health Expenditure at 1.43% of GDP, failing to meet the 2.5% target envisaged in the National Health Policy.
- Private hospital charges are 8x to 15x of govt hospitals
- Govt hospitals have just 0.79 bed per 1000 population
- Govt spending on secondary and tertiary care poor - needs to be reviewed.
- Private hospitals do excessive billing, unnecessary diagnostics.
- The impact of rampant acquisition of mid sized hospitals by PEs.
- Over 40 cr individuals are excluded from both government schemes and affordable private insurance - severely exposed.

The report are suggestions from the committee to the ministry. It's upon the ministry to act on these.

[Tara @Ta_ra_das]

Am sorry the toxicity of the Indian media and its allies is so established, am so sorry it has fallen to the next generation to (also) deal with it. It should have ended with mine, it hasn't. Please know it's not you, it's a whole culture of mutual benefit.

In the US, Meta has been questioned by Congress over user privacy, competition, Cambridge Analytica, child safety, and content moderation.

In India, Meta is being questioned because the Prime Minister’s video briefly went offline due to a technical glitch.

One democracy focuses on protecting citizens. The other appears focused on protecting a leader’s image.

Which one better reflects a democracy of the people?

Brij Bhushan was acquitted after 6 wrestlers accused him of sexual harassment. Imagine the pressure on women that 2 out of 6 turned hostile. The police protection against one victim was taken away just a day before her statement in court. Story out soon @Article14live

[Aditi Agrawal @Aditi_muses]

Dude. Is the problem that kids abused or that girls abused?

And what does this ambiguous forgiveness look like? Explain.

How has this become about kids’ abusive language instead of accountability from the elected government?

Gumraah na hoyen point se.

What’s even happening?
