Getting a passport in this country feels like a punishment
You submit every document perfectly. Then a police officer shows up for verification and suddenly there's a problem with your papers
The problem? You haven't paid him yet
Small issues become big threats. All they want is money.
This is not verification This is extortion in uniform
My suggestion: REMOVE police verification from the passport process entirely. Why are we still giving corrupt officers this power over ordinary citizens?

🧵 Garib Nagar, Bandra East — Let's talk facts, not emotions. (Thread)
1. Western Railway just started demolishing ~400-500 illegal structures at Garib Nagar, Bandra East on May 19.
Both the Bombay High Court AND the Supreme Court approved this. Let that sink in.
2. WHY is this happening?
- 5,300 sq meter railway safety zone was completely encroached
- Land needed for Bandra East station redevelopment
- 5th & 6th railway lines on Santacruz-Mumbai Central corridor
- Will add 50 new trains for Mumbai commuters
PM is traveling abroad to secure investments and ensure energy security in this period of economic gloom due to various global wars. It is one thing to know that, as a contender of PM post over the last 16 years, you don't have the intellectual capacity to understand this. However, I am intrigued to see your irritation towards promoting a reputed Indian brand (Parle). Is it because you don't want Indian brands to be showcased on the global stage? Or are you disgruntled by your intelligence (or lack of it), which has kept you puzzled over why melody is chocolaty?
