URGENT SUPPORT NEEDED.

I may be silenced forever in the next few days.

It means there won't be anyone to expose foreign toolkits for regime change.

An American citizen, Dinesh Thakur, has filed a case against me for exposing the truth about the CJP protest.

Please speak out against those who want to silence the patriot voices.

Use #ISupportVijayPatel and show your support.

I expect at least this from you guys🙏

Jai Hind.

The simplest way I've found to describe UPITS is that it's the whole of Uttar Pradesh's economy showing up in one hall for five days.

A district artisan, a food processor, an EV maker, a defence supplier and a startup, all sharing a floor with buyers from across India and 85 countries.

2,400+ exhibitors, six lakh-plus visitors, six partner nations.

But the numbers are just the frame. The real work is putting what the state makes in front of people who buy at scale, and then backing it with credit, marketing and export support in the same building.

Turning access into something an ordinary business can just walk into, year after year, is where Yogi ji's UP quietly stands apart.#YogijiKaGlobalUP

Bloomberg, Reuters, WSJ, CNA, Nikkei, BBC, WaPo, AFP, DW, think of any major state or non-state media company, from the west or east:

They all seem infiltrated by the Red-Green cabal (communist - islamists). Some say funded by China - Qatar and run by Pakis, Turks, Chinese and Indian Brown sepoys.

You will always see these names as "journalists" in these fake reports.

They continue to use these platforms to publish blatant misinfo and disinfo to cause issues for India, Indian companies, Indian economy, and the Indian govt on a continuous basis.

Their infowar does not even spare the US or Israel, who used to have very good influence in the world media just a decade before. This cabal seems to have become that powerful with the rise of China and economic clout of Qatar.

Their influence is so strong that, French state and other media were forced to publish fake news on their Rafale fighter jets during OpSindoor before the reports were corrected and challenged by the French state, their intel, and Dassault to protect their own interests.

I think India should take the lead in fighting this infiltration and influence on world media by this red-green cabal by creating a comprehensive plan to counter their disinfo and misinfo working with Israel, US, and other partners in the west.

Last one on this topic, and I have been holding this in myself for a while.

For centuries, class divides kept the labor of the poor invisible to the rich. Factory workers toiled behind walls, farmers in distant fields, domestic help in backrooms. The wealthy consumed the fruits of that labor without ever seeing the faces or the fatigue behind it. No direct encounter, no personal guilt.

The gig economy shattered that invisibility, at unprecedented scale.

Suddenly, the poor aren't hidden away. They're at your doorstep: the delivery partner handing over your ₹1000+ biryani, late-night groceries, or quick-commerce essentials. You see them in the rain, heat, traffic, often on borrowed bikes, working 8–10 hours for earnings that give them sustenance. You see their exhaustion, their polite smile masking frustration with life in general.

This is the first time in history at this scale that the working class and consuming class interact face-to-face, transaction after transaction. And that discomfort with our own selves is why we are uncomfortable about the gig economy. We want these people to look our part, so that the guilt we feel while taking orders from them feels less.

We aren't just debating economics. We are confronting guilt. That ₹800 order might equal their entire day's earnings after fuel, bike rent, and app cuts. We tip awkwardly, or avoid eye contact, because the inequality is no longer abstract. It's personal.

Pre-gig era, the rich could enjoy luxury without moral discomfort. Labor was out of sight. Now, every doorbell ring is a reminder of systemic inequality. That's why debates explode. It's not just policy. It's emotional reckoning. Some defend the system (“they choose it”), others demand change (“this isn't progress, its exploitation”).

And here’s the uncomfortable twist: the unsaid ask of clumsy ‘solutions’ isn’t dignity. It is about returning to invisibility.

Ban gig work and you don’t solve inequality. You remove livelihoods. These jobs don’t magically reappear as formal, protected employment the next day. They disappear, or they get pushed back into the informal economy where there are even fewer protections and even less accountability. Over-regulate it until the model breaks, and you achieve the same outcome through paperwork instead of slogans: the work evaporates, prices rise, demand collapses, and the people we claim to protect are the first to lose income.

And then what happens?

The rich get their old comfort back. Convenience returns without faces. Guilt dissolves. We go back to clean abstractions and moral posturing from a distance. The poor don’t become safer, they become invisible again: back in cash economies, back in backrooms, back in shadows where regulation rarely reaches and dignity isn’t even debated.

The gig economy just exposed the reality of inequality to the people who previously had the luxury of not seeing it. The doorbell is not the problem. The question is what we do after opening the door.

Visibility is the price of progress. We can either use this discomfort to build something better (which we keep doing continuously as delivery partners are our backbone), or we can ban and over-regulate our way back into ignorance. One of those choices improves lives. The other simply helps the consuming class feel virtuous in the dark.

[Deepinder Goyal @deepigoyal]

Facts below (1/5):

In 2025, average earnings per hour (EPH), excluding tips, for a delivery partner on Zomato were ₹102.
In 2024, this number was ₹92. That’s a ~10.9% year-on-year increase. Over a longer horizon also, EPH has shown steady growth.

Most delivery partners work for a few hours and only a few days in a month. But if someone were to work for 10 hours/day, 26 days/month, this translates to ~₹26,500/month in gross earnings. After accounting for fuel and maintenance (~20%), the net earnings for the partner are ~₹21,000/month.

Note: Earnings per hour are calculated on total hours logged in, including the time when the partner might be waiting to receive an order. Earnings per “busy hour” will be higher but that’s not the right metric to look at.

On top of this - delivery partners earn 100% of tips given by customers. The average tip per hour in 2025 on Zomato was INR 2.6 and in 2024 was INR 2.4 per hour. Tips are transferred instantly, with zero deductions. We absorb the payment gateway processing cost ourselves. About 5% of the orders get tipped on Zomato; 2.5% on Blinkit.

Avyaan was six months old.

He was born this year after ten years of waiting, prayers, hope, and countless visits to infertility clinics by his parents. For the family, his arrival was pure joy.

Avyaan was healthy, but his mother could not produce breast milk due to a medical reason. She was advised to give diluted cow’s milk. Ideally, infant formula is the substitute for breast milk, but because of cost, some families choose cow’s milk. In such cases, doctors may advise diluting it with boiled and cooled water.

I don't know who advised the family or what exact instructions were given, but it is entirely possible that, out of ignorance, cow’s milk was mixed with tap water, instead of boiled-cooled water. People tend to trust municipal water supplies, often the only thing they believe the govt will provide honestly.

Five days ago, Avyaan developed fever and diarrhoea. The family took him to a doctor and medicines were prescribed. They believed it would pass. Instead, his condition worsened steadily, and he died on Monday.

Only later did the truth emerge. The water supply in Bhagirathpura, Indore, was contaminated with sewage. Several others died as well. The family realised, too late, what may have poisoned their child. They are numb, trapped between disbelief and unbearable guilt, replaying every small decision and wondering what they missed.

Could boiled and cooled water have saved him? Maybe. Maybe not. Many bacterial toxins are heat-stable, and sewage can also contain heavy metals, nitrates, and other contaminants that are not removed by boiling.

Will anyone in authority be held accountable for this institutional, negligent killing? Will this tragedy lead to any real improvement? Will even one person step down, accepting moral responsibility?

Kailash Vijayvargiya’s response to NDTV already answers all of that:
“Ghanta.”

[THE SKIN DOCTOR @theskindoctor13]

Read this absolute horror story:

In June 2017, a minor girl accused Unnao BJP MLA Kuldeep Singh Sengar of rape, but the police refused to register an FIR. After months of inaction, in April 2018, the girl attempted suicide by self-immolation outside the CM’s residence, which finally forced the authorities to file the FIR.

Meanwhile, her father was arrested on false charges and reportedly assaulted in police custody; he later died in hospital due to his injuries. Public outrage followed. Even before any proper investigation had begun, a key witness in this mysterious custodial death was also found dead.

The case was eventually transferred to the CBI. The CBI concluded that the girl’s father died due to injuries inflicted in custody and that the assault was connected to an attempt to pressure and intimidate the victim’s family.

In July 2019, while the victim was travelling to court with her two aunts and lawyer, their car was hit by a truck, killing both her aunts and leaving the victim and the lawyer critically injured, an incident later treated as a deliberate attempt to silence witnesses.

In December 2019, Sengar was convicted and sentenced to life imprisonment, but by then the victim’s family had already paid an irreparable price. The Unnao rape case had all the elements of an 80s–90s Bollywood villain plot: systemic intimidation, blatant abuse of power, and a trail of destruction that went far beyond the crime itself. But worse was still to come.

Yesterday, the Delhi High Court suspended the jail term and granted bail to Sengar. This is nothing but salt rubbed into the wounds of whatever little the victim’s family has left. An absolute disgrace. After everything they endured, this feels like the system mocking them. Shameful beyond words, and everyone should raise their voice against this.

“All gave some. Some gave all.”

Inspector Ashish Sharma, one of the finest officers of Madhya Pradesh’s elite anti-Maoist Hawk Force, fell in the forests of Rajnandgaon while fighting Maoists.

A two-time gallantry award winner, he was the man the police sent when the job was impossibly difficult. A farmer’s son from Narsinghpur, he was just two months away from his wedding, as per Navbharat Times.

Sharing this because the heroism and sacrifices of our security forces should dominate media and social media. But sadly, we’ve normalised the opposite. The moment a terrorist is neutralised, the narrative instantly shifts to emotional sob stories about their “circumstances,” while real heroes like Ashish Sharma barely get a fraction of that attention.

Om Shanti.

[THE SKIN DOCTOR @theskindoctor13]

Police get rightfully criticised on social media for poor work ethics and corruption, but when they do splendid work, they deserve praise on the same scale too.

Until 2019, posters glorifying terror groups were a common sight in Kashmir. The police would usually remove them, but not every time was there a serious investigation into who put them up.

The busting of Faridabad's white-collar terror module began when on 19 Oct some police officers in Srinagar noticed posters praising a banned terror outfit, something that might once have been dismissed as routine propaganda. But this time, the J&K Police got curious. The SSP Srinagar GV Sundeep Chakravarthy insisted that the source be traced, refusing to let it pass as just another poster incident.

That single decision, to investigate promptly, set off a butterfly effect. CCTV footage led to Dr. Adil Ahmed Rather of Saharanpur, which led to Dr. Muzzamil Shakeel, the seizure of 3,000 kg of IED-making material, and finally to a full-blown terror module stretching from Kashmir to Delhi and Faridabad.

Yes, one blast did happen, but had the J&K Police not acted when they did, those explosives, ten to fifteen times more than Pulwama, could have unleashed devastation on a scale this country hasn’t seen since 26/11.

This is how policing should work: alert eyes, curious minds, and relentless follow-through. J&K Police, Haryana Police, UP Police, and everyone else involved, well done. Please keep giving us more opportunities to say good things about the police.

Honoured to serve for the country

[Shashi Tharoor @ShashiTharoor]

Mr Trump’s post is disappointing for India in four important ways: First, it implies a false equivalence between the victim and the perpetrator, and seemingly overlooks the US’ own past unwavering stance against Pakistan’s well-documented links to cross-border terrorism. Second, it offers Pakistan a negotiating framework which it certainly has not earned. India will never negotiate with a terrorist gun pointed at its head. Third, it “internationalises” the Kashmir dispute, an obvious objective of the terrorists. India rejects the idea of a dispute and sees the problem as an internal affair of India’s. India has never requested, not is likely to seek, any foreign country’s mediation over its problems with Pakistan. And fourth, it “re-hyphenates” India and Pakistan in the global imagination. For decades now, world leaders had been encouraged not to club their visits to India with visits to Pakistan, and starting with President Clinton in 2000, no US President had done so. This is a major backward step.

"विनय न मानत जलधि जड़, गए तीनि दिन बीति। बोले राम सकोप तब, भय बिनु होइ न प्रीति!”

The Air Marshal appears to be well-versed in the Hindu scriptures.

Did you know that in the Armed Forces, there are weekly or biweekly mandir parades where everyone participates and sings the *aarti* together? It’s something you rarely see among Hindu civilians.

It reminds me of General Bipin Rawat’s famous quote: “Gentlemen, the Army is conservative.” Though said in a different context, it feels equally relevant here. Yes, the overall outlook of the Armed Forces is secular, as they serve the entire nation, not religion, but the cultural core reflects a deep-rooted adherence to dharma.

Truly a blatant display of ignorance by the IMF, disbursing funds to Pakistan-a country harboring terrorists for decades. The timing is utterly dubious amid rising tensions. Reckless aid enables terror, undermines global security. #ShameOnIMF Expose the Perpetrators @UNSC @UN

The same folks clamouring for de-escalation when India is attacking Pakistan, were cheering when Iran was attacking Israel.

[Aditya Raj Kaul @AdityaRajKaul]

Samay Raina has individually achieved what most top OTT platforms and comedians haven’t achieved in less than 5 years. While big guns get away, @ReheSamay is being made into a scapegoat. It’s time to end this. It’s not a National Security issue. People watching him sign up for it.

This is in no way defending Samya Raina. What #RanveerAllahbadia said was a vulgar and cross comment. I don’t approve of it. Yet thousands of people sign up and subscribe for this content. It’s also a time to introspect who made Ranveer a hero and how and why he was given such importance and access without background check on his upbringing, views and individual mentality.

Government of India needs to do better content curation and bring rules for adult content on social media which is freely available. And it needs to award content creators wisely. Don’t award just anyone with views on Social Media.

In this entire saga, I am most astonished by the immaturity shown by some parts of media who are targeting family members of Samya Raina for no reason. The only crime of Samaj Raina is that he comes from a middle-class family and dreamt of making it big by his own hard work and creativity. And it’s funny to see content creators who see themselves as competitors of Samay Raina also attacking his family for no reason. Just for views and more money from YouTube and Instagram.

You should listen to how many people Samay has helped by building their profile and helping their work reach masses. He was an ordinary comedian but his passion and dedication made him a star. He is no elite Bollywood star with a family legacy helping him with money and power. He is a comedian who has risen from the masses on his own merit and creativity. Samay rightly represents young India and Indian comedy today. And there are folks sitting in elite positions who are jealous of his rise and monopoly of a kind.

And his mission in life in his own words is to make his parents enjoy life as much possible because of the hardships they faced because of terrorism and violence. That’s not a crime. I can so much relate to this mission as a fellow victim of terrorism.

And it really astonishes me on how much most Indians abuse MC and BC on a daily basis. We use derogatory terms for mothers and sisters to abuse. Yet we want to digitally lynch someone because he did so in English publicly as a comedy content. Such hypocrisy!

As I said, I don’t enjoy abuses and such filthy language in comedy. But that doesn’t mean I will lodge FIR against it and demand arrest of comedians. We need to grow up. We need to choose our priorities well. We need to have better battles to fight.

Life teaches many lessons. I am sure for Samay as well this episode of life has taught many lessons and he will choose his future path wisely. He is young and there is so much more to achieve.
