Be it NEET exam paper leak or CBSE OSM fiasco, lot of parents and their kids are getting genuinely upset with such severe flaws in our education system.
It is time for education minister to go. Someone who is very competent and of unquestionable ethics need to be brought as an education minister.
With employment opportunities already being dwindling for freshers and things are becoming more and more competitive, the least we can do is to have a proper examination and evaluation system. These are hygiene factors and are expected as matter of routine.
Saw a news item that government is planning to use airforce to carry NEET papers. If we've to depend on defence forces for routine civilian functions, it shows the institutional collapse.
Education ministry not only need new set of people, foolproof systems need to be deviced to prevent any future paper leaks and fiasco happened recently in CBSE evaluations.
Good air, clean water, and food are fundamental to a good life. In that sense, they should be treated as fundamental rights.
But air quality has been steadily degrading, and it's not really part of the mainstream conversation. That needs to change. Right now, if you look at the site (link in comments), everything looks green. But as we get closer to the end of the year, things will start looking much worse.
Solving air pollution is hard, but the first step is simple: people need to know what they're breathing.
Right now, that's not possible. India does collect air quality data, but it's either locked away, too broad to tell you anything about your locality, or just not published at all. There's no single place a citizen can go to get a clear, neighbourhood-level picture.
So we set out to fix that.
Today, we're launching an open, pan-India air quality platform, built in partnership with leading organisations in the field. The goal: give citizens, schools, local governments, and communities direct access to the data that affects their daily lives.
At @RainmatterOrg , we've been committed to keeping this conversation alive, and this platform is our attempt at making that happen. All the data on the site is free and open, so others can build on top of it.
Notice from Income Tax: "Explain ₹50,000 credit in your savings account." That's literally your grandmother's gift for your wedding.
Now submit - Gift deed, her IT returns, bank statements, relationship proof, notarized affidavit. For YOUR money. From YOUR grandmother. This is terrorism.
💥We need a Hindu Humiliation Museum in the national capital to keep memories of what all has happened to our civilisation.
Everything needs to be properly documented and put up for the next generations to see including how conversion happened.
Every single massacre, partition genocide, terror act and riot needs to be documented and shown to the world.

₹53,000 crore - whooping STT collected last year from markets
STT was meant to remove capital gains....but now it is double taxation....!!
This is unnecessary burden on investors...
Either remove LTCG or remove STT....can't have both..
Retweet if you agree..

@ShamikaRavi I read your full article. Can you tell me how many people have reached the age of 60 post 1 Jan 2004? Infact considering avg. age of joing to be 25 yrs I guess they have 15yrs of service left.
Apart from that everyone is still under OPS and everyone gets the same benefit. 🤡
₹120 dividend after taking 100% risk, and the government grabs ₹36 without lifting a finger.
Investor puts hard-earned money on the line, lives with volatility, stress, and uncertainty. Government does ZERO investment, takes ZERO risk, and still behaves like a 30% partner in profits. If the stock crashes, will the taxman share the loss? If the company goes bankrupt, will they refund anything?
Of course not.
This is not “nation building.” This is risk-free extortion of honest investors, while loss-makers, evaders, and cronies are pampered. Work, save, invest, and get punished.
Welcome to the system where effort is taxed and incompetence is rewarded.
2025 was the year when artificial intelligence’s full potential roared into view, and when it became clear that there will be no turning back.

I can't tell you how many rich Indians reach out to me privately: regarding moving out of India.
Their goal is not necessarily "save tax". Their goal is better lifestyle for kids: cleaner air, safety, better opportunities.
Sad part is: when rich people move out-- they leave a massive vacuum.
Less than 2% people pay direct tax in India (this is one of the lowest in the world). 1 rich person pays (HNI) would be paying massive taxes.
If he/she leaves, that's a significant loss for other 98%. People don't get this simple point.
Things like judiciary, pollution, infrastructure seems deeply broken in our country. This was always the case, nothing new here. It was shit 15 years ago, its shit now. Nothing significant happened.
But, at least there used to be harmony in the past. People used to respect each other's viewpoints. We saw our nation come together during episodes like Nirbhaya.
Now what? Nothing. AQI can bloody go up to 999+, people will simply yap: that the meter was built by Soros. And, end the discussion there.
Rich people leaving is just one of the many consequences of collective apathy towards a broken system.
