Even by the standards of a country ranking 157 of 180 nations in the World Press Freedom Index, the reaction of the authorities to the ‘Cockroach Janata Party’ is beyond extraordinary. The public response to that imaginative prank should have signalled to them a deep discontent, even distress, among young people. Instead, as The Indian Express reported, it was framed as jeopardising the country’s ‘national security’ and ‘posing a threat to the sovereignty of India.’ Decades ago, the Malaysian lawyer and poet Cecil Rajendra wrote this brilliant poem that captures the idiocy of it better than any pompous editorialising could (not that our ‘mainstream’ media would dare do even that much).
Danish engineers Larsen & Toubro founded L&T in 1938. Today Denmark ranks 3rd globally in work life balance, 9th in GDP/capita & averages 34 hrs worked/wk. Get a life Mr. Chairman @larsentoubro!
@amazonIN This is just UNACCEPTABLE. How come?The package arrived at the final delivery facility on 24th May, Friday. Since then only ONE delivery attempt was made. And that too, I just received a call from delivery partner and no visit to address. (1/2)
@AmazonHelp@amazonIN Sounds ridiculous. Come on...@amazonIN It's the mistake from your end, and how can you ever say that you can't reinstate the order? I waited for 15 long days, and was optimistic of receiving it during the past weekend. But your delivery team screwed it.
@amazonIN@amazonIN "Problem occured". When I read the update the further it says "Delivery attempts were unsuccessful and the product is readied for return to seller. Are you guys punishing me for ordering a phone from you? What kind of checks you have in place?
@Pepperfry Thanks for the revert! Tell me if I can get it by tomorrow-the latest. If not, pls cancel and initiate refund. Post 12th May no attempt was made to deliver the order… don’t know why???
#pepperfry Will you deliver it or not. Order #309676399. It’s been 15 long days. No communication regarding delays, and you take customers for granted. We have to come back behind you. What the hell you think? New expected delivery date pops up each morning. Cancel and refund.
I couldn’t disagree more with @svembu’s ideological positions or pols but I think it’s disgusting to drag his personal life into the public realm and use it assassinate his character. @Zoho is a shining example of how world class tech products can be built in rural india. Period.
