A student in Goa took their life due to the NEET paper leak. Who is responsible for this? How does this stuff not outrage anyone? Ideology and all is fine but bloody don’t make people end their lives due to your incompetence.
.@authoramish Amish, there is a difference between speaking a language and investigating its history, politics, linguistics, etc., in a scholarly way. You are writing in English. There is voluminous scholarship about its history, formation, philology, and so on. There are scholarly conferences with names like "Studies in the History of the English Language." There is an entire body of work about the uses and politics of English in ex-colonies. There is a scholarly journal called World Englishes. All of this effort produces essential and exciting knowledge. The most respected scholar of world Englishes is an Indian, Braj Kachru. He is considered the field's founding father by scholars worldwide. He established the theoretical framework for studying the varieties of English spoken globally. Absolutely groundbreaking. Scholarship like this goes across national and cultural borders, and produces invaluable opportunities for collaboration and exchange. The production of scholarly knowledge is not something that everyone knows about. That doesn't make it less valuable.
Trivia: After Mahatma Gandhi (Kaisar-i-Hind in 1915 by Lord Hardinge), Beer Biceps (Creator's Award) is the first civilian to be jailed by the same government that awarded him.

It is funny how so many people still believe that this lady decides on taxes, or keeping petrol prices high or not responding to the pain and cost of mindless compliance with zero resolution! Even educated Indians opt to delude themselves!

A few days ago, I had the good fortune of visiting #BegumAkhtar Ji‘s grave.
Her voice has been a strong presence in my life since I was a child.
Whatever I sang there was completely under her presence.
It is her death anniversary today. Sending her lots of love 🙏❤️.
So, there’s a new online shopping scam on the rise. Read on to save yourself from it👇
One of my relatives recently ordered clothes from a website called “Ethno Trend.” She spent ₹3,000, for outfits. The package arrived via DTDC courier. But, clothes were completely different and the quality was so cheap it probably cost them ₹100 max. There is no phone number on the website. Only one email which will be never replied back.
To connect to them, I placed a dummy order because they call you up to confirm when you order. A woman finally called me, and I told her about the previous order. She laughed. When I mentioned I'll report to police she yawned. Probably bored by banality of this statement and responded in heavy Gujrati accent, “Haan haan. Accha hai. Chalo fir bye.”
So, I Googled around, and turns out there are hundreds of similar fake online shopping websites running the same con of which people have complained in past. They send you fake items, collect cash through DTDC, and there’s no direct payment option online so they can dodge getting caught.
DTDC should technically hold some responsibility for handing over your money to scammers, but they’re just not.
The sheer creativity and variety of scams these days is staggering. So be very careful. Saawdhan India!! @DTDCIndia@GujaratPolice
