India's population is about that of all the Americas (North and South) together combined with Western Europe. Almost five dozen odd countries together have say 1.4-1.5 billion people, same as just India.
Now imagine if you wake up and read about all the terrible news in the entire Western Hemisphere (ex-Africa, but also adding some regions). Murders, rapes, accidents, scandals etc. And you form a view basis that.
This is what is happening to people who are consuming too much news off social media where virality needs are pushing algorithms (no Indian oversight here, only American - and for TikTok, Chinese) to accentuate the bad.
Please get a perspective. An accurate one, not a ugly one or rose-tinted one. Just a balanced and contextualised one. And please take care of your mental health.
@avataram Babu’s also need to be sacked, Pradhan was pushed out of O&G Ministry and Hardeep Puri was brought in for a reason. Pradhan managed to mess up this role as well.
Easiest way is to block users, preferably using IP addresses from hostile countries from interacting with Indian accounts, @GoI_MeitY should force social media companies to comply.
Anyone who posts pro or even neutral to India type content on social media will realize just how deep the hatred & obsession of our fellow South Asians is towards India.
They are intimately knowledgeable of Indian faultlines, domestic anti-Indian (opposition) rhetoric, & the tropes that encourage fragmentation & anti-Indianism.
YouTube especially was revealing in just how vicious and mass this maliciousness is amongst the average Pakistanis & Bangladeshis towards India.
South Asians rank neck in neck with wignats on anti-Indian comments. Chinese are a distant third but honestly their comments are funny because of the broken/autistic English lmao.
IISc esearchers have developed a low-energy method to extract iron from toxic red mud waste generated during aluminium production. The recovered iron can also be converted into a useful catalyst for environmental cleanup.

@omjasvinMD Same with Tasmac Shop No- 169 on Wall Tax Road, Sowcarpet, Chennai, with HRCE Temple being rebuilt right next to it and sharing same boundary wall. Multiple Schools, Jewelry stores in 500m radius.
The biggest indictment of UPSC as a system to select bureaucrats to govern the country is that the very guys who introduced it in India, the British, don't use it themselves
Good interview with Ashwini Vaishnav. He knows his stuff.
India aiming to manufacture 3nm chips by 2032 and treating sovereign AI as a national goal.
Definitely talent pipelines, fabs, OSATs, design, and demand are being stitched together at scale. But execution will continue to be the hard part.
-3nm isn’t just fabs, but we need EUV access, deep supplier depth, yields, and brutal cost discipline.
-AI sovereignty means models + chips + energy + data. Need to see how we scale here
Hopefully we stay the course and achieve this @bsindia
