"Gen Z is paying taxes; they don’t have jobs.”
How are they paying taxes if they don’t have jobs? It’s like saying, “He is running a marathon; he doesn’t have legs.”
And someone please tell this low budget Faye D’Souza that frustrated youth rebelling against the system is not some historic societal shift. Every generation, in its youth, thinks it has discovered corruption, inequality, and hypocrisy for the first time. Young people have always been anti-establishment, idealistic, angry at institutions, and convinced they can build a perfect utopia. That’s not “something is changing”; that’s literally how youth has functioned for centuries.
राहुल गांधी को भारत और भारत में बनी हर वस्तु से इतनी नफरत क्यों है?
भारत आज Made in India और Local Goes Global के माध्यम से दुनिया का Trusted Destination बना है, लेकिन कांग्रेस को हर भारतीय उपलब्धि में समस्या ही दिखाई देती है।
जिस वैश्विक सम्मान, निवेश और भरोसे के लिए देश दशकों तक इंतज़ार करता रहा, वही प्रधानमंत्री @NarendraModi जी के नेतृत्व में आज भारत अर्जित कर रहा है तो वह राहुल गांधी से सहन नहीं हो रहा है।
Yesterday was a long day.
I was called for questioning in connection with a case that I believed had no merit, and I attended the questioning to present my version. However, the police arrested me at 5.30 PM.
I was granted bail at 10 PM, and the Hon’ble Duty Judge clearly stated that he saw no offence in the case. He also said that he saw no mens rea and failed to understand why I had even been arrested.
Grateful to @RaviSharmaTalks and @sidcool2302, the wonderful lawyers who helped me through this.
Thankful to the many people, both online and offline, who supported me. I’m truly grateful. Of course, there are many who dislike you and use such opportunities to strike harder when you are down, but that’s fair game. It was your day, and you took it. I can take those blows and come back.
At times like these, one realises the importance of ideological support. The people who stood by me at the most crucial juncture were neither close friends nor relatives, but those with whom I am bound by ideology. And it delivered for me when it mattered most.
This incident has added many new layers of perspective, most importantly the ones we usually miss in the melee of day-to-day social media discourse.
I’ll write about the specifics of this case another day. For now, I just want to say thank you so much to everyone who has been a well-wisher. I’m grateful.
Thank you for monitoring the situation.
Why the PM said what he said in Hyderabad today about WFH, saving petrol, avoiding destination weddings, not buying gold for a year, etc.
India imports massive quantities of both crude oil and gold, and both are paid for in dollars. In a period of geopolitical instability, if crude oil prices rise sharply while gold imports and luxury foreign spending continue unchecked, it puts enormous pressure on India’s foreign exchange reserves, trade deficit, rupee stability, and inflation.
Oil is a necessity. Gold and luxury foreign expenditure are lnot. From a policymaking perspective, reducing non-essential dollar outflow during economic uncertainty becomes strategically important.
If people don't save fuel, keep buying imported gold at record levels, and spend heavily abroad, the pressure eventually hits the rupee itself. A weaker rupee makes imports more expensive, fuel prices rise, transportation costs go up, and eventually the price of almost every commodity in the economy starts increasing.
So his appeal is logical for collective good.
वैसे तो भारत के हर राज्य में मिली विजय भाजपा के लिए महत्वपूर्ण है लेकिन आज बंगाल की जीत के मायने अलग हैं।
यह प्रधानमंत्री श्री @narendramodi जी और गृहमंत्री श्री @AmitShah जी के अथक प्रयासों, बेजोड़ रणनीति के कारण मिली अप्रत्याशित जीत है। यह क्षण ऐतिहासिक और अविस्मरणीय है।
महाराष्ट्र दिनानिमित्त महाराष्ट्रातील माझ्या सर्व बंधू-भगिनींना हार्दिक शुभेच्छा. सामाजिक प्रबोधन, समृद्ध सांस्कृतिक परंपरा आणि विविध क्षेत्रांतील नेतृत्वाचा महाराष्ट्राला प्रदीर्घ गौरवशाली इतिहास लाभला आहे. साहित्य, नाट्य, संगीत, चित्रपट ते उद्योग, शिक्षण, विज्ञान आणि सार्वजनिक सेवा याद्वारे राज्याने भारताच्या प्रगतीत मोलाचे योगदान दिले आहे. महाराष्ट्राच्या निरंतर विकासासाठी आणि येथील महान जनतेच्या कल्याणासाठी मी प्रार्थना करतो.

In 2026, thirty 200+ scores in just 36 games. IPL has been successfully ruined, it is no longer for bowlers.
Same boring IPL again. How are people even finding this entertaining? It’s just flat pitches and "win the toss, win the match." You could set a target of 300 and they’d still chase it down because there’s zero help for the bowlers.
There’s no respect for the game and no balance anymore. I’m tired of seeing a four or a six every single ball; it’s not real cricket. A real fan wants to see a pitch where bowlers actually have a chance to take wickets, not just get bullied.
Honestly, these flat tracks are boring and meaningless. The IPL has become a joke it feels like watching a game in a local park rather than an international standard tournament. No skill, just mindless hitting.
🚨 EXCLUSIVE! Remember Khanani from Dhurandhar smuggling fake currency through Nepal?
- It was TRUE. Cong Govt ACCEPTED it in the Parliament in 2012🤯
RJD MP questions how Pakistan prints fake Indian currency with the same INK, PAPER & INTAGLIO tech, smuggling via Nepal.
Chidambaram (then FM) casually replies: "How can we stop them? The source is in another country. We can only try to prevent entry through borders" 😳
This was India’s Law & Order admitting defeat inside Parliament🤡
Before 2014, we were completely COOKED. Fake currency flooded in while the government shrugged.
Next time someone calls Dhurandhar "propaganda", show them this – their own regime was openly HELPLESS against Pakistan’s terror economy.
@StarHealthIns Claim CIR/2026/171147/1925643 — only ₹2L approved vs ₹2.99L bill.
Unacceptable deduction of ~₹99K without clear justification.
Expect fair settlement as per policy terms, immediately or face the next course of action.
