Offending a child’s sensibilities is possibly the worst trait of humans. This little child from Itanagar wants Indians to know that she too is one of us. India is diverse, we need to understand this

🚨 Could 1,609 "potential" duplicate voters decide Jubilee Hills tomorrow Nov 11th 2025?
● 🤔 What do these patterns tell us about our electoral data?
If the winning margin is just 2000-3000 votes, could these duplicates be a game changer? Our computational analysis reveals:
• Top 10 booths alone have 157 duplicates
• Booth 115 leads with 19 duplicate entries
• Why do certain areas show 15-20+ duplicate voters clustered together?
• How might identical names/addresses across multiple booths impact close elections?
In tight races, every vote matters. What safeguards ensure these don't affect results? @umasudhir @abntelugutv @TeluguScribe @TeamQnews @IamwithMallanna

They know very well that crossing the overflowing stream carrying the pregnant woman on shoulder is highly risky.
They also know that not taking her to hospital is also equally risky.

Put yourself in the shoes of an elderly person who has not received her pension for months, goes to the bank, learns that her Aadhaar-linked account has been “de-seeded”, and receives these Kafkaesque guidelines. Mind-boggling!

[Supriya Shrinate @SupriyaShrinate]

There was a meeting organised in Coimbatore with businesses and Finance Minister Nirmala Sitharaman

▪️The owner of Sree Annapoorna, a famous vegetarian restaurant chain in Coimbatore, Mr. Srinivasan explained the problems of different GST rates for different items to FM

▪️He said GST on sweets 5%, namkeen 12%, plain bun 0, but bun with cream bread 18% - this makes calculation of GST and input credit tedious not just for businesses but even tax officials (video 1 from the event)

▪️While FM laughed it off on stage but the same owner was later made to apologise to her in person. His apology was surreptitiously recorded and shared by BJP’s official handle (video 2)

This is the height of arrogance where a businessman can’t even voice his concern

It’s a direct attack on the pride of Tamil Nadu, which won’t be tolerated. Little wonder the BJP has struggled to make a mark in the land of Periyar

Madam FM, being in public life means listening to grievances and providing solutions not intimidating those who complain

Shame!

@SwiggyCares @Swiggy but 58 minutes is quite a delay. My order was combined with another, causing the wait. It used to be under 30 minutes from this place. See this

@Swiggy Your delivery standards seem off—61 minutes to deliver food within 2.2 km? I could’ve walked there, dined, and returned in under 60 minutes.

Rebba villagers in #ParvathipuramManyam carry their two sick children on a makeshift boat to PHC on the other side of #Nagavali river.

Villagers are forced to choose this mode of transport as the Purnapadu-Labesu bridge remains incomplete for years.

NREGA workers are at the mercy of a useless, opaque, glitch-ridden and fraud-prone system of Aadhaar-based wage payments. Nowadays, some of them are not paid at all.
