There are 234 MLAs in Tamilnadu assembly. 39 MPs. Not one of them is a Brahmin.

This is the same state where 95% of the population enjoys reservation. Basically, it is reservations for almost everyone except Brahmins. .

This is not social justice but complete marginalization of a minority community.

GCs of other states must remember: TN model today is India model tomorrow. TN first broke 50% barrier. Others are catching up.

If GCs do not fight against injustice today, this will be your future.

This website has all of your sensitive documents like Marksheet, SSN, Aadhar, Pan, DL, etc. It might even have confidential government data.

It's so easy to use, just upload & convert, all free of cost.

Banks insist on password-protected files, forcing people to rely on third-party tools just to unlock them.
Government portals impose arbitrary limits, like requiring documents to be under 500 KB in an era of virtually unlimited storage, so citizens go to these external sites for file compression. These unnecessary hurdles are created by institutions, while ordinary people are left to deal with the inconvenience and privacy.

Amazon is laying off 14,000 employees, including in India, as AI takes over their roles.

The cruel part is how fragile private sector “stability” is. You get a job, start earning, feel settled, plan a future, buy a house on EMI, and one fine morning the company decides to “downsize”. Suddenly, you’re jobless. If a new job doesn’t come quickly, those EMIs can destroy your peace and your life.

And the govt! While you earn, you must pay taxes. The moment you lose your job, you’re on your own. Farmers get compensation when crops fail, despite many paying zero income tax, but a taxpayer losing his job gets practically nothing.

Maybe it's time to introduce reforms like make EMI pauses for few months more liberal for those who lose their jobs, and providing a time-bound monthly allowance for few months from the govt, except for disciplinary cases of course. Ladla/Ladlis can get free money, free ration, free water and electricity, so why not support a worker who has been paying taxes and contributing?

It took 22 children to die a horrible death for the govt to identify that the facility which manufactured the syrup in question was unhygienic and unsanitary.

It had rusted equipment, the storage tanks didn't meet the norms and they had flouted multiple regulations.

Now it has been sealed and shut down. The syrup has now been banned.

Question is, the rust didn't appear overnight nor did the unsanitary conditions. And if they had been flouting norms, it should have been caught in the annual inspections.

So why were they allowed to function in the first place? Why were they allowed to sell the medicine? Why were they allowed to function?

And why does it take the deaths of kids and people for the govt to wake up and do something?

[Anuradha Tiwari @talk2anuradha]

Make one small mistake in any private company, you’re fired that very same day.

Here, 20 children died from toxic cough syrup.

Not one babu got fired. Not one minister resigned.

Forget accountability, where is the humanity?

On what downward slope is this country heading?

You need to be vocabulary maxxing because there are some thoughts you'll only have if you have the words for them. Nietzsche: "We have only the particular thought for the words that are present in our minds." Knowing more words means giving more clay to your mind to sculpt ideas

An example of how simplifying a system can end corruption:

Why does a cop need to physically visit your house for passport verification? Your criminal record, if any, isn’t stored at home. During these visits, cops almost always ask for money. You don’t want to pay, but you fear they might put a negative remark and block your process, so many end up giving in.

Some argue that a visit is needed to confirm your address. That’s just an excuse. Everywhere else, banks, schools, government offices, your address is accepted through Aadhaar, ration card, electricity bill, or other official documents.

So why not end discretion and simplify the system? Let applicants upload all relevant documents online, and let the police verify them digitally. The process should be time-bound, for example, if a verification isn’t completed in 7 days, the file automatically escalates to a higher authority, and the police must explain the delay.

Every step should be recorded, traceable, and transparent, with online tracking for applicants. Make it cashless and fully digital. This small change would remove discretion, prevent bribes, and make the system faster, fairer, and corruption-free.

But, will they do it?

If you’re shocked that the BJP govt in MP is defending 73% reservation in the SC, here’s some perspective:

The NDA govt in Bihar is in the SC challenging the Patna HC’s order that struck down attempt to raise reservation to 65%.

In Maharashtra, the NDA govt passed a law in 2018 increasing quotas to 68%, which the SC later struck down.

In Karnataka, the BJP govt in 2021 filed an affidavit seeking to lift the 50% ceiling on reservations.

The takeaway is simple: on the issue of reservation, political parties of every stripe behave the same. Many states have already breached the 50% limit, others are waiting their turn, and eventually one Supreme Court bench will validate it, after which the floodgates will open.

So if you belong to the unreserved category, don’t waste energy crying about it. Democracy runs on numbers, and you don’t have them. So fight this legally for as long as you can, but don’t wait for the courts to secure your future. Be your own saviours: work harder, back each other, build wealth, raise families, create a lasting legacy, and ensure your children never have to rely on the govt to survive or succeed.

It was responsibility of both the govt and the BCCI to ensure India does not play Pakistan in Asia Cup. They failed.

Now the choice is yours: either shrug it off with “if they don’t care, why should I” and watch, or refuse to watch and make a statement.

I hope you choose the latter. Don’t watch, neither on TV, nor online, nor through apps. Don’t even engage when cricket accounts post live scores or hype the match as it gets “interesting.”

Refusing to engage is a small act for each of us, but together it becomes a powerful statement that neither the govt nor the BCCI can ignore. Let silence be the rebellion.

Wearing the Indian jersey, singing the anthem, and trying my best each time I stepped on the field - it’s impossible to put into words what it truly meant. But as they say, all good things must come to an end, and with immense gratitude I have decided to retire from all forms of Indian cricket.

Thank you for all the love and support! 🙏🇮🇳
