@JioCare your relocation service is pathetic. Have been struggling to get uninstallation done for past 5 days despite paying required fee on March 27. Repeatedly calling customer care but to no avail. Not getting service at my new location because of this. Received following msg

Seeing videos and photographs of @ManvendraJasol circulating across social media -- not for his public work or ideas, but for a deeply personal life decision -- has been truly heartbreaking.
For many, he is a former MP from Barmer-Jaisalmer, a former MLA, a writer, and the son of former Union minister Jaswant Singh. But beyond public life, those who know him have seen a humble, thoughtful individual -- a devoted father, a loyal husband, and a compassionate friend with a liberal outlook on life.
Two years ago, he lost his wife, Chitra Singh, in a tragic car accident -- a loss no public stature can soften. Grief changes people, and sometimes healing begins when companionship returns.
His decision to remarry at 60 should have been welcomed as a sign of hope. Instead, it has led to social judgement and even a purportedly family statement distancing itself from him, a descision reportedly rooted in caste and community boundaries. That is what makes this moment deeply painful.
The right to companionship and personal choice does not expire with age or social expectations. A widower choosing to rebuild his life is not rejecting tradition -- he is choosing to live again.
This episode reminds us that despite progress, remnants of feudal thinking still linger, where honour is placed above empathy and social identity above individual happiness.
For over thirteen years, I have known him as a gentle, reflective person whose conversations reflected openness and intellectual curiosity. Watching a deeply human decision reduced to gossip and outrage is disheartening.
Every individual deserves dignity in grief, freedom in love, and respect for personal choices.
Sometimes the sadness lies not in what a person chooses, but in how society responds.
In solidarity.

What is happening is unforgivable! How can responsible channels spread false news about a person who is responding to treatment and is recovering? This is being extremely disrespectful and irresponsible. Please give due respect to the family and its need for privacy.
