A few days ago, this video went viral, showing speed breakers on NH-25. People naturally assumed that locals had installed them, because who else would? After all, speed breakers are illegal on highways.

Today, NHAI issued a "clarification" that they only had installed them at the "request" (read: political lobbying or pressure) of a local public representative, and that these are not speed breakers but rumble strips. Lol!

The way these people think the aam janta of this country has no brains of their own is unbelievable!

Today, India takes a defining step in its civil nuclear journey, advancing the second stage of its nuclear programme.

The indigenously designed and built Prototype Fast Breeder Reactor at Kalpakkam has attained criticality.

This advanced reactor, capable of producing more fuel than it consumes, reflects the depth of our scientific capability and the strength of our engineering enterprise. It is a decisive step towards harnessing our vast thorium reserves in the third stage of the programme.

A proud moment for India. Congratulations to our scientists and engineers.

Making a "Museum of Dead Substandard DC Chargers." High-speed DC units which never work. India’s EV transition deserves better than this. Time for strict SLA on 99% uptime. #PMeDrive

MP police has arrested Dr Pravin Soni, a pediatrician accused of prescribing the contaminated Coldrif syrup that killed 11 children, charging him with culpable homicide.

Once again, the system is targeting the smallest and most visible link instead of examining institutional failure. How can a doctor be held responsible for a drug that was approved by the authorities, manufactured legally, supplied through govt channels, and stocked in licensed pharmacies?

If tomorrow a doctor prescribes a standard medicine like Paracetamol and that batch turns out to be contaminated, will the doctor be blamed for that too? That logic is absurd.

Accountability lies with the manufacturer, drug regulators (CDSCO, state FDA), supply authorities, and quality-control systems. Doctors have no role in formulation, testing, or distribution.

Now, if Dr Pravin Soni was violating service rules by doing private practice as a govt doctor, that is a separate issue and must be investigated. If he was prescribing a lesser-known drug due to financial incentives from the pharma company, that should also be probed. Those are valid grounds for disciplinary or legal action.

But making him the face of the tragedy and shielding the govt machinery responsible for the contaminated drug is nothing but scapegoating. I have no sympathy for the doctor personally, but using him as a substitute for real accountability is not justice.
