🚨 FASTag has a MASSIVE security loophole & nobody is talking about it.

Today, literally anyone with access to your car & RC can get a NEW FASTag issued on your vehicle in THEIR name & mobile number.

No OTP.
No owner authorization.
No consent from the actual vehicle owner.

The moment that happens?
Your existing FASTag gets blacklisted/deactivated instantly under the “One Vehicle One FASTag” policy.

That’s exactly what happened to me.

I’m currently transporting my car from Mumbai to Delhi & handed over the vehicle to the transporter’s driver on Saturday.

He casually asked me if there was balance in the FASTag.

Next morning, I received a message from ICICI saying a new FASTag had been activated on my vehicle & my existing FASTag would be deactivated.

Within minutes, it was blacklisted/deactivated.

Honestly, God knows what the plan even was.

Maybe he thought the balance would transfer.
Maybe he wanted to misuse it during transit.
Maybe something worse.

The scary part?
The system ALLOWED this without a single authorization from the actual vehicle owner.

The NETC FASTag portal was down the entire day.

After 4+ hours of calls, ICICI finally told me the new FASTag was issued via Airtel Payments Bank.

Later, I checked the Airtel Thanks app & guess what?
The FASTag had been registered by the SAME driver who took the car.

This is where things become ridiculous.

Airtel Payments Bank support told me THEY cannot close the FASTag unless the person who activated it calls them personally.

Read that again.

The actual vehicle owner has ZERO control over the FASTag -
but the person who fraudulently activated it does.

The NHAI helpline at 1033 was equally useless.

No emergency block.
No fraud handling.
No owner protection mechanism.

So if someone activates a FASTag on your car, you’re basically stranded.

How is this acceptable infrastructure for something linked to a vehicle owner’s identity & movement?

This is no longer just a scam.
It’s a massive security vulnerability in the FASTag ecosystem.

NPCI/NETC urgently needs mandatory owner authorization.

At the very least, mandate OTP verification from the registered vehicle owner before ANY FASTag change is approved.

This needs immediate attention, @NPCI_NPCI @FASTag_NETC.

Pathetic support, zero accountability, and absolutely no protection for the actual vehicle owner while someone else fraudulently took control of the FASTag.
That should never be possible, @ICICIBank @airtelbank.

@zomato Your delivery executive is rude and is lying while delivering the order. Your support executive denies to cancel the order, even after 15 minutes of wrongly marking the order as delivered. Its shameful and pathetic behaviour by Zomato representatives.

Stray Dogs attack a 4 year old boy in Beed, Maharashtra.

6 stray dogs attacked and dragged the kid. Boy is in critical condition due to severe bite at multiple locations.

But if anyone gets angry seeing it, they will be labelled as blood thirsty animal haters.

Brutal attack by pack of stray dogs has left a 4 years old boy critically injured in the Pandhari locality of Beed in Maharashtra. The child sustained deep puncture wounds and lacerations at 6-7 spots on his body. Our streets are not safe for our children.

How is this not misuse of government power?

A traffic cop fined a man ₹500 for not wearing a seat belt.
Fair enough — rules are rules.

But just a few moments later, the same officer was seen riding without a helmet.

The car owner noticed this, followed him, recorded a video, clicked photos, and exposed the hypocrisy online.

This incident is reportedly from Madhya Pradesh.

The law should be equal for everyone — whether it’s a common citizen or a traffic police officer.

Now the real question is:
Will action also be taken against the officer for breaking traffic rules?

What’s your opinion on this...?

Hello @DelhiPolice, is there any law and order in Delhi or can a maniac dog lover can beat any one in front of a police station in the presence of the police?

India’s Tax Trap 🤯

₹20 Lays packet = ₹4 tax
₹600 movie tickets = ₹120 tax
₹200 Popcorn = ₹80 tax
Petrol/Diesel = ₹35–42 tax per litre
Buy a vehicle= GST + Road Tax + Registration
Electronics = 18% GST

From eating to entertainment… tax everywhere.

Then comes Income Tax:
Earn ₹1 Crore → Govt takes up to ₹42 Lakh

After paying so much tax :

• Roads → still broken
• Infra → still worse
• Govt Schools → poor quality
• Govt Hospitals → overcrowded
• Transport → unhygienic

And for good education & healthcare ?
Pay private sector again 🤐

Soon To Be 3rd Largest Economy 🤡

VIP First

[NCMIndia Council For Men Affairs @NCMIndiaa]

Citizens can wait but VIPs can not. Every second of a VIP is precious but even hours of a citizen does not have any value. Lets see for how long we citizens can tolerate this nuiscance.

Travel in a general compartment of a train — that’s hell.

🚨India Embassy Official in ROME thinks he is the Supreme Boss and Indians seeking his help are his servants..

After destroying India with VIP culture, these ones are attempting to spread the BABU virus to Italy.

Just look at how this wannabe Politician is talking..

[खुरपेंची ढांचे @Khurpenchinfra]

Lucknow stuck in a jam for VIP movement.

Offices delayed. Kids late to school.
Public waits, convoys pass.

Roads aren’t private corridors.

Speak up, or keep losing time to this.

Vaccine can't cure the trauma of dog bite.

Not a single stray dog should be on the road.

[Meru @MeruOnX]

Just when you think public health and safety in India couldn’t be more taken for granted, another video surfaces- this time showing a rail employee cleaning disposable plates. Yes, you heard that right: cleaning disposable plates. When asked why, he says they have to be sent to the company for “checking”- whatever that even means 😡😡

[The Kaipullai @thekaipullai]

Bhavish Agarwal till date has raised about Rs 54,000 cr ($6 Billion) for all his businesses, ranging from AI to Second Hand cars.

To put this in perspective this is what Rs 54,000 cr does for you

1. The total cost of installing the Mk3 Water pump, that greatly alleviated India's water problem - Cost Rs 50,000 Cr

2. Our Entire Rafale deal, was about Rs 58,000 cr

3. The entire first 83 jet order for Tejas, was Rs 50,000 cr

4. ISRO's annual budget, is Rs 18,000 Cr. 33% of what Bhavish raised.

5. The total earnings of Hindi Movie industry, from 2021-2025, was Rs 21,000 cr. Less than 50% of what Bhavish has raised.

6. With Rs 54,000 cr, you can setup
11 Lakh Idli / Dosa outlets
27 lakh Vada pav stalls
36 Lakh Bhel puri stalls

With the amount of money he has raised, one could have

Setup up a functioning Air Force with advanced Fighter jet
Funded ISRO for three years
Supplied all the Villages in the country with Bhel Puri or Idli

He raised more money than what India's biggest movie industry in 5 years.

With Rs 54,000 cr you can do anything.

But somehow, Bhavish Agarwal has not been able to setup a functioning, profitable, stable business with that money.

[Sameer @BesuraTaansane]

People who do this must be severely punished. Taping vents? Seriously?

Carry warm clothing if you know you cannot tolerate AC

Railways should keep temperature in compartment around 23-24 deg & not freeze everyone at 16 deg

Hello @AshwiniVaishnaw ji

I am again requesting you, please change the vendor!!

"What is this, Indian Railway?" 😡

Train No. 12101 (Raipur). A journalist filmed pantry staff washing "disposable plates." Are they being reused or something else?

Catering staff already sell food, tea, and water at high prices. Now this hygiene?
