@Fintech03 Wrong analysis. Part of the reason I trust US based applications is their compliance culture. I know they will follow what terms and conditions we are agreeing to, however complicated and unbalanced those are. OTOH, I have zero trust in Indian companies handling my personal data
@hindumax My late mom stood strong against midday meal stealing. These midday meal workers steal big time at every opportunity (school to school varies). They are not “Maa” as being claimed.
@Lufthansa_India@lufthansa My luggage arrived a day later from JFK-FRA-BLR. On delivery at my home, I found the suitcase is broken beyond repair. Raised a ticket 2 days back but no response yet. What is the expected resolution date?
When Bengal Was The Richest Place in the World
In the early 1700s, Bengal was one of the richest places in the world. Generating 5% of global GDP, its capital Murshidabad had more wealth than the British aristocracy combined.
Vivek Agarwal's father was admitted to MAX Hospital. Seven members of his family were staying at the ill-fated Hotel Flourish Stays, where the fire broke out.
Not a single one of them survived.
Entire family was wiped out because some fire officer allegedly took a bribe to issue a fire clearance, some government babu never checked the building plans, and authorities ignored the illegal restaurant operating in the basement.
Now they will find the owner and put all the blame and act as if they are serious. But they won't allow anyone to talk about the system failure that made this tragedy possible.
Sadly, the news cycle will move on, and so will most people.
@ankituttam@Cricket_live247 Just curious- why use of left hand? Is it common? Generally, in Bengali’s, we use both hands to touch the upper part of the feet.
This is a rarest-of-rare scenario where a major land scam came to light.
A junior IAS officer was allotted the most interior plots in the deal. When land prices skyrocketed, plots along the road increased 15 times in value. However, the officer’s interior plots saw almost no appreciation.
Feeling cheated, he pleaded for compensation or better plots. Everyone ignored him.
Out of sheer frustration, he quietly leaked the entire story to the media.
This is an extremely rare instance of getting caught. Across India, such deals usually go through smoothly without any exposure.
Today, on this sacred Pochishe Boishakh, a new dawn is breaking in West Bengal as the first BJP government takes charge.
I write in @timesofindia how, for Prime Minister @NarendraModi and the BJP, the West Bengal election was never merely a political contest. It was a sacred endeavour to restore the lost glory of this great land. Do read and share.
The Satyajit Ray of Indian Politics — A First-Hand Account of Bengal’s Redemption 🧵
To the armchair critics sitting hundreds of kilometers away: your "political analysis" of Bengal is noise. I was born and raised in the heart of Kolkata. I didn't read about Bengal in a textbook; I breathed its dust, felt its fear, and watched its slow decay. This is for you.
You see videos of celebrations today and call it "unrest." You don’t understand. This is the sound of a glass ceiling shattering after 50 years of suffocation. This is the primal scream of a people who have finally broken their chains. ⛓️🔥
“Last time we lost in Arambagh, Goghat, Khanakul, Pursura…but we spared you out of magnanimity. This time, I personally take responsibility. After May 4, I'll see whose father from Delhi comes to save them.”

If the Women's Reservation Bill had been passed, there would have been 307 more Blood Sucking VIPs just like this.
They would still draw hefty pensions, salaries, and perks from your taxes & you would remain poor.
