In Vinukonda (AP). Can hear loudspeaker announcements, fire crackers and music for the inaugural of a statue (presumably of a local leader), while the rest of the city is without electricity for the last 2.5hrs in 40°C summer.
Priorities. Loud and clear.

Hi
My name is Rohan Mehta and I will try to make this as easy to understand as possible. I have been employed with Ministry of External Affairs for more than 8 years now. During this period, I have served in Embassy of India, Moscow and Consulate General of India, Sao Paulo.
While working in Sao Paulo, I learned that the Consul General (head of Consulate) was a totally corrupt lady Manisha Swami and she used to harass all employees. Her modus operandi was simple: she used to come to office for some time and abuse and shout at the employees and then leave for the whole day. She was also misusing official resources. There was another Consulate employee (Adarsh Mishra) who was harassing female employees and not working at all. Before I move further, let me tell you the salaries of both of these employees which is effectively taxpayers' money(USD $7000 and USD $5200 per month approx. respectively).
As Consul General learned that I was the only one who could complain, she nudged another employee to make a fake sexual harassment complaint against me. The goal was that I either back off or probably commit suicide as a result of the fear they were trying to create in my mind. But why would I have fear when I had done nothing. The name of the lady who complained is Gayatri Gosain. This lady used to tell me that she used to treat me like an elder sister. And I gave her all due respect like you would to your sister. By complaining against me, she did an extremely cheap thing. But when this complaint reached Ministry of External Affairs and when she was asked if she wants to proceed with the complaint she backed off
(either because of shame because she knew that she made a fake complaint or because she knew that Complaint Committee takes action against the complainee when it is fake). Now also, I have all documents to prove it was fake. I will post an image which shows how much harassment I was facing while I was in Sao Paulo. Also, Adarsh had also harassed Gayatri Gosain and the first 3 minutes of one hour recording on my Facebook post(link is available below in the tweet about sequence of posts) have proof of the same.
Now let's move further. I eventually made a corruption complaint on 5 January 2024. I addressed it to Indian Ambassador in Brazil Suresh Reddy and Administration head in India B Vanlalvawna. I informed about the corruption and also about the sexual harassment instances. But instead of taking any action against the culprits, I was recalled to India and was asked to travel back on 9 January 2024. I intimated that I was not vaccinated against yellow fever so I maybe allowed to take vaccine and travel after 10 days once the vaccine becomes effective. Regardless, I was given an exemption certificate to travel without vaccine(this was a clear safety hazard). I am attaching a copy of the certificate here. The guy who signed this certificate was also harassing another Brazilian lady and a recording of the same is available on my Facebook post.

I returned to India and asked about action taken on my complaint. I was told that no action will be taken against it. In a short while, Ministry opened a fake case against me alleging that my fiancée(who is Brazilian) was living with me in Brazil. My fiancée was not living with me in Brazil and I intimated the same. I also intimated that I was facing harassment and I even submitted a copy of corruption complaint to Vigilance Section. They called me two months after my reply and tried to coerce me to change my statement and write that my fiancée was living with me. This coercion was openly illegal and anyone who wants to know what happened can listen to the following recording.

This recording is 40 minutes long and in the second half the Undersecretary from Vigilance Section is repetitively trying to force me to change my statement. In the first half, another personnel from Vigilance tells me that generally action is taken against people who complain about corruption.

@EurekaForbes@EurekaForbes any update? Or till when can I expect an update?
CC: @consumerforum_ for your reference, i have been harassed by the eureka forbes technician on call, and my requests (over call and twitter) to change the technician are falling on deaf years.
@EurekaForbes I raised a service request CM-070125-42078312 (after damage to unit from your technician).
I requested a change in technician. I have called cust support multiple times and been assured that the technician will be changed each time. But it has not happened yet.
@EurekaForbes@pratikpota What is the estimated time for an actual update instead of templated reply? I've been on call with cust support 1 hr now. Still on hold :)
@EurekaForbes I've been on call with cust support team for 45 mins. 30 mins of it has been on hold. 15 mins has been them just telling me they can't do anything and can't connect me with anyone who can do anything .
@EurekaForbes the cust support team says they can only mention it in the remarks and can't change the technician. They refuse to divulge info on who I can contact to change the technician. In the meantime, there's no drinking water at my home. What should I do?
20th Day OF MY #CLIMATEFAST
3000 people fasting with me. But still not a word from the government.
Very unusual for a democracy... when 90% of the population have come out to remind the leaders of their promises and 100s have been on fast some for 20 days.
But we're very impressed by the public support nationwide... making up for the compromised mainstream media.

A small Recap of the pandemic, very secular more than anything, that every Indian across religions suffered.

No, this is not a satirical post. This is as real as it can get!
1. The current term of #LokSabha hasn't had a Deputy Speaker yet. This is unprecedented. It violates Article 93 of the #ConstitutionOfIndia & Govt is about to get away with it without any consequences.
2. The current 17th Lok Sabha likely to be the full term LS with least number of #Parliament sittings, only 278 (approx, including the scheduled dates of upcoming last session). This is an average of only 56 days in a year. In 2020, #COVID19 became an excuse to bring down number of Parliament sittings to a historic low of only 33 days in a year. We plan to export #Aadhaar and #UPI to the world, but we couldn't convene virtual Parliament sessions, which many democracies did.
3. With less number of Parliament sittings, Govt relied more on Ordinances - 76 Ordinances between 2014-2021. · The three controversial #farmlaws were first brought as Ordinances as people were busy surviving the first wave of Covid in 2020.

I am disabled and I got married at the Registrars Office at Khar Mumbai on 16/10/23. The office was on the 2nd floor WITHOUT a lift. They wouldn’t come downstairs for the signatures and I had to be carried up two flights of stairs to get married.
@nidhivermaa93@airindia I am on the same flight. Now delayed by almost 6 hours, not sure if this is the last delay. For delays of more than 6 hours, without prior communication (24 hrs before the departure), passengers are eligible for compensation: https://t.co/gdRN9KYRVx
@airindia how to file this?
