What started with prepaid mobile recharge scams around 2008 slowly evolved into ATM frauds and now to digital payment frauds in Jamtara, also known as the phishing capital of India, a small state in Jharkhand. 1/4

The day trucks start getting lower mileage than already and faulty fuel issues. Is the day inflation will blow the roof.

Workers of the hotel trying to make a living would be arrested but not the officers who turned a blind eye when illegal construction was going on.

Now that Delhi Police has arrested the cook, they should also arrest the sweeper, the security guard, the receptionist and the liftman.
Arrest everyone but the corrupt MCD engineers, the inept fire dept officials and the extortionist local police personnel.

BJP had to bear the loss of exit of someone like Annamalai becuase it didn't want to offend its ally AIADMK, and Congress didn't take even an hour to dump its ally DMK after election results. Yet narrative had been how how BJP eats up its own allies.

Only thing offensive about this photo is the Cheetah copter. Uncles/incels/wannabes should be furious over how the Army has failed to replace Cheetahs for 20 yrs!
Last month, a Maj Gen had a narrow escape in a crash.
But no, they'll fulminate over young love in a new world.

Yes we are now ripping India off ! That is exactly what Trump meant !

Capital, Investments are now flowing from Global South to Global North ! It’s Bizarre but its happening folks ! America is draining sucking India like a blood bag 🩸!

America is Draining capital from India, targeting its Capital surplus, Trade Surplus, Foreign Exchange and aim to make it captive buyer of US Energy & Defence, Technology supply chains as a vassal state.

So that America could re-industrialise, gain strength at cost of India’s growth. Same is happening to Japan, Korea & even Europe but then those are developed countries while India is not.

Its called Predatory Economics ! America has just flipped the whole thing on its head and it has been met with meek resistance from Indian Elite be it political or corporate.

They are more than willing to honour new Terms & Conditions imposed by Washington to protect their businesses, profit lines, leverage & power !

It took the deaths of 375 miners in Chasnala in 1975 for us to realize that we needed safety in mines

It took the death of countless innocents in Bhopal for us to tighten industrial safety standards

It took the death of 25 people in Rajasthan to crack down on illegal modifications made by bus operators

It took the death of 25 people in Indore for authorities to realize that their water supply had major issues.

It took the death of two innocent people by a drunk minor driving a car in Pune for authorities to understand that bars were open beyond scheduled hours and drinks were being served to minors

It took the deaths of 14 people in Mumbai in 2017, for authorities to wake up and realize that pubs were flouting norms, building unauthorized structures and ignoring fire safety norms.

It took the deaths of 135 people in Morbi for authorities to realize that the bridge they constructed was atrocious in quality and all the norms were flouted

And it has now taken 21 horrible deaths in Delhi for authorities to realize that tons of hotels were operating by rampantly flouting norms, violating permissions, ignoring safety certificates and gave a damn about fire and other hazards

Why does it always take innocent deaths for authorities to wake up and start taking action in India?

Why do we have to die for authorities to start doing what they are paid to do?

[The Kaipullai @thekaipullai]

A very tough fact but we need to face it

Bereaucratic apathy and corruption has killed more Indian citizens than the terrorists sent by our enemy nation

Arrest that officer who came to do the fire inspection and went quietly after taking a bribe. Arrest that corrupt municipal official who gave the NOC to the building.
But that's not going to happen. This guy Bajaj will be in the news for a few days, and everyone will forget about the actual issue.

Corruption has become the national character of India.

[Puyangan Adiyan @Puyangan5]

Modi started off the second term with such a sense of purpose.

- Article 370 scrapped
- the big corporate tax cuts
- farm laws
- Divestment target of 2.1L crores for 2020-21!!!This included plan to sell BPCL and divesting stake sales in PSBs.

The pandemic put an abrupt break to all that momentum.

Contrast that with the third term! Absolute sense of drift.

[Navroop Singh @TheNavroopSingh]

When will Indian bureaucracy understand that education of your sons & daughters, your junkets in West is not important than India’s national interests. Dhandho Maxers over the decades have compromised India’s power of resistance. Brick by Brick Washington has infiltrated like termites eat a house walls from inside. This needs immediate treatment not band aids.

The US is out to destroy our economy, from H1B, IT Giants to Sucking Precious Capital away to Deny Technologies to sanction energy supply chains to abet Pakistan & to do coups in neighbourhood to imposing tariffs to trample Indian Export surpluses. The Post 1991 Era is of Globalisation is over !

Wake up Kumbhakaran ! See whats happening around us. Absolutely ridiculous grow some spine to stand up to national interests !

Google which is cash surplus, just announced an additional capital raise of $80 bn.
Google annual profit is $160 bn, last quarter $62 bn, and market cap $4.5 trillion. That is close to total profits and market cap of all Indian listed companies put together.
It’s a wake up call to all companies to invest into the future, whatever the present maybe.
Now that IPL is done and dusted, time for India to focus on business of business.

[Historianunkil @SudsG5]

Solid expose on a textbook DMK / UPA style scam.

The GoI is still burying it's head in the sand, Modiji is gyaan phelaoing on hot weather but except Pradhan saying that this is a mistake and will be fixed, no action.

This is also UPA level hubris

[Rattan Dhillon @ShivrattanDhil1]

Yesterday, I posted about my sibling’s petrol car getting stranded on the road due to a fuel pump failure. The company itself confirmed it was linked to a fuel blending issue related to ethanol.

But unfortunately, I had to delete the post because of immense pressure from higher authorities. For the first time in my life, I was forced to take down something purely out of concern for family safety and precautions.

The unfortunate truth is that whenever someone speaks up about ethanol-related issues, attempts are made to silence them. This may continue, but these problems won’t disappear and tomorrow it could be my own car stranded the same way.

Let me trace the timeline here because nobody's connecting it.

Step 1: Scrape the entire internet. Every book, every article, every conversation, every piece of art, every forum post. Do it without asking. Do it without paying.

Step 2: Train a model on all of it. Call it "artificial intelligence."

Step 3: Go to BlackRock's Infrastructure Summit and announce: "We see a future where intelligence is a utility, like electricity or water, and people buy it from us on a meter."

Step 3 is where you sell people's own knowledge back to them. On a meter.

They took the collective output of human thought, compressed it into a model, and now they want to charge you by the token to access a version of what you and everyone you know already created.

One Reddit user put it perfectly: "They stole all this data from us, the people, our life's work, creativity, art, by devouring the internet and blowing through all copyright laws. Now they want to sell it back to us in the form of a utility."

Imagine if someone photocopied every book in the public library, burned the library down, and then opened a subscription service for the copies.

That's the metered intelligence business model.

And they're pitching it to infrastructure investors as though they invented water.

Is there so much money in India that we can waste it so easily?
