जनता अपनी रोजमर्रा की लाचारी, महंगाई और असुरक्षा से इतनी थकी होती है कि वह जानते हुए भी इस झूठ पर यकीन करना चाहती है कि "शायद यह वाला नेता अलग हो, शायद इस बार मेरी किस्मत बदल जाए।"
राजनीति असल में वादों का नहीं, बल्कि 'उम्मीदों' का धंधा है।
@MorningConsult के अनुसार मार्च–जुलाई 2026 के उपलब्ध आंकड़ों में @narendramodi ~ 68–70% Approval Rating के साथ दुनिया के सबसे अधिक स्वीकृति प्राप्त लोकतांत्रिक नेताओं में बने हुए हैं। यह उनके ऐतिहासिक 75–78% स्तर से कुछ कम है, लेकिन अंतरराष्ट्रीय तुलना में अभी भी सबसे ऊपर है।
One thing is clear: the Delhi protesters want to plunge India into chaos, and stop the nation's progress. We must defeat this malicious agenda, which is aided and abetted by powers that want to destroy India.
We have a vibrant democracy and elections are the proper way to express our collective judgment.
We're taught how to choose a career, but rarely where to build a life. After 15 years of litigation, I'm exploring relocation because quality of life matters as much as career growth. Should location planning become part of career planning?

An Indian engineer helped make history!
When a US Army helicopter recently crashed off the waters of Hormuz, an autonomous rescue boat named Corsair navigated through darkness, located two stranded pilots, and brought them safely ashore, without a single human onboard.
Behind this breakthrough was Vibhav Altekar, a young Indian technologist from Maharashtra, whose AI and autonomous systems helped turn science fiction into reality.
A unique UG program at @IITKanpur! Meant especially for young ethical hackers. (Some of them are in the news 😊.) Admission through a hackathon. Specialized coursework with two year long internship at security agencies. We aim to produce cyber warriors of the future.
Warm congratulations to PM @narendramodi on becoming India’s longest-serving elected Prime Minister. A true statesman who has transformed India’s economy and standing in the world. Proud of the Comprehensive Strategic Partnership we built together. Congrats my friend. 🇦🇺 🇮🇳
Reasonably accurate data.
If we pay Rs.500 for a plumber visit, we extrapolate how many visits he will make in a day and how much he'll earn during the entire month.
It doesn't work that way. Not everyday he may have multiple calls. If he is down with fever for 3 or 4 days, that's zero income. Right from taking his family members to government hospitals, go to his children's school when he is asked to appear, attending functions of relatives and friends, visiting temples in native for festivals - the list is very long.
When I went for name change in Aadhaar, there were such contractual and daily labourers in the queue too. When enquired, I was told that they won't be earning anything that day.
One old lady in her sixties made mistake in the documents she brought. So the official asked her to come next day with correct documents. She started crying and pleading she has also lost wage for that day and cannot afford to lose one more day.
Also there are skilled workers who simply stop working for that month once their income target is reached.
British MP Rupert Lowe reads out in Parliament testimonies from survivors of Muslim rape gangs and details of police involvement, based on findings from his independent inquiry.
“He took the bottle of Jack Daniels and he forced it up inside me. He broke the glass. I was about 12 or 13”
“Comments were constantly made that White Girls had lower values than Muslim girls”
“Things would escalate around Eid. Worse. More violent. The parties would be bigger. More people involved”
“One of the girls got pregnant by one of them. His Dad was an Imam”
“I was raped by probably 600 or 700 different men”
“They put a cigarette out on the baby’s face”
“I was raped by multiple police officers in different parts of the country”
“As a Christian, wearing my cross would be special to me. But it was just used as a way to break me down. They would shout ‘Where is your God now? Has your God forsaken you?’”
“It was all White Girls. In a van. I remember seeing 15-20 girls locked in dog cages”
“Race DID play a part. Throughout my exploitation. The other girls I encountered or were abused along side me, were almost all exclusively White”
Taken together, these testimonies paint a picture of evil on an industrial scale. The brutality described is almost impossible to comprehend: children subjected to unspeakable violence, stripped of their dignity, dehumanized, and abandoned by institutions that were supposed to protect them. What makes these accounts even more disturbing are the repeated allegations that race, religion, and political sensitivities discouraged authorities from confronting the problem honestly and decisively. These testimonies represent one of the gravest failures of law enforcement, social services, and political leadership in modern British history. The victims deserved protection, justice, and a voice. Instead, many were left to endure horrors that no child should ever experience.
Professor Omar Yaghi, a chemist at the University of California, Berkeley and winner of the 2025 Nobel Prize in Chemistry, has developed an innovative atmospheric water generator capable of producing up to 1,000 liters of clean drinking water per day directly from dry air.
Using reticular chemistry and advanced metal-organic frameworks (MOFs), the system efficiently captures moisture even in arid desert conditions with very low humidity. The compact, shipping-container-sized units developed by Yaghi’s company, Atoco, operate entirely off-grid using only ultra-low-grade ambient thermal energy or sunlight, requiring no electricity from the grid.
This sustainable technology offers a promising alternative to energy-intensive desalination plants, which often harm marine ecosystems through brine discharge. It is particularly valuable for remote communities, drought-prone regions, and areas affected by natural disasters such as hurricanes in the Caribbean, where centralized water infrastructure may fail.
Yaghi’s personal experience growing up with water scarcity in a refugee community in Jordan has deeply influenced his work. He advocates for scaling decentralized, resilient solutions to address the global water crisis through scientific innovation.

If you are planning a trip to Sikkim, this post could be helpful. Bookmark this for future reference.
We visited Sikkim in the first week of May 2026, covering Gangtok, Nathu la and Lachung (North Sikkim). Our group had six people, including my parents in their 70s.
