@elonmusk Really Mr Muskmelon, are you planning to give it for free? Common, you cannot fool people. Starlink costs 10-20 times than our usual Internet cost. Leave alone those rural areas, people won’t buy it even in urban areas. Mark my word.
#trumpish@nytimes@Bloomberg@OED I am curious if the meaning of the word ‘Trumpish’ should be modified as: Dangerously unpredictable for personal gains. Or A vice which makes someone mercurial and dangerous. Mercurial behaviour often dangerous.
@IGR_Media what do you think? /1

*An advice from a senior citizen currently visiting the US*
Dear friends,
We have been staying in Seattle, Washington, for the past two months. My wife was suffering from a severe respiratory issue when we left India. After using those medicines from India,here in the US, she had almost recovered.
However, as our supply ran out, So, I asked my daughter to schedule an appointment with a pulmonologist (respiratory specialist) in Seattle.
we had to consult a general physician first. We were given an appointment for a week later—and that too, only via a video call.
We spoke to the doctor on the phone for about 10 minutes.He said he understood the issue and prescribed appropriate medicines, stating that we could pick them up from a pharmacy.we were told the medicines were not immediately available and would take 4–5 days to arrive.
We finally received the medicines on the fifth day. Surprisingly, the medicines were manufactured by 'Cipla' and bore the label 'Made in India'. Even after a 50% discount through US medical insurance, we still had to pay an equivalent of ₹21,000. This means medicines costing just ₹2,500 in India cost a staggering ₹42,000 in the US.
It took us 12 days to obtain medicines here that are readily available at any pharmacy in India. A week later, we received a bill of $283 (approximately ₹23,000) for the doctor's consultation fee.
Consider yourselves to be fortunate to be living in India during your retirement years.
We often look abroad in search of a "good life." But if we pause to think... certain everyday conveniences—unavailable even to billionaires in London or New York—are easily accessible to the middle class in India.
Here are *7 examples* showing that even the life of a common person in our country is a **VIP lifestyle**:
*1 Data Democratization:*
While countries around the world spend over $50 (approx. ₹4,000) a month for basic internet, we enjoy high-speed 5G data for just ₹300. We have the cheapest data in the world! This is what has digitally transformed our economy.
*2 The "10-Minute" doorstep delivery:*
Run out of ginger for your tea or out of milk? Place an order on Blinkit, Zepto, or Swiggy Instamart, and the item is in your hands before the water even boils. In Europe, by contrast, you’d have to put on a coat and walk 15 minutes in the cold to a store—and you wouldn't be surprised to find it already closed.
*3 Instant Healthcare:*
Need to see a specialist? You can go straight to the hospital. Need a blood test? A lab technician comes to your home as early as 6 AM to collect the sample, and the report arrives on your WhatsApp by afternoon. We don't face the three-month waiting lists or the nightmare of "insurance approvals" common elsewhere even for trivial ailments.
*4 Human Support System:*
Having people to help with house cleaning, cooking, and driving isn't a luxury reserved only for the wealthy here; it is the backbone of middle-class life. It offers something incredibly valuable: it saves **TIME**.
*5 The UPI Revolution:*
From a ₹5 roadside tea to a ₹50,000 laptop—everything is just a scan away! No need for wallets, no excuses like "the card machine isn't working," and absolutely no transaction fees. In this regard, the rest of the world lags far behind us.
*6 *"Free" Little Joys:*
No matter which restaurant you visit, you get a glass of drinking water for free (whereas elsewhere, they’d charge you $5). There’s an ironing man / chai wallah right at the end of the street to take care of our instant needs. It is these little things that make life run so smoothly.
*7 Social Bonds (Social Safety Net):*
We don't live in a culture of legal notices and courts; we live in a culture of relationships. If we face a problem, a neighbor won't send a court notice—they’ll lovingly cook and send over some *khichdi*.
*The Bottom Line:*
India is not merely a country; it is a wonderful world filled with conveniences at every turn.
Dinesh arrived at the Meerut Court to attend the Mediation Date just three months after his marriage because his wife lodged a case against him. But his wife attacked him when he was going back to his home after attending the mediation.
She tried to stop his car, climbed on the bonnet of the car and tried to break the glass. Panicked Husband drove his car towards nearby Mahila Thana. But his wife assaulted him even outside the Mahila Thana.
And guess what happened next? Police lodged a case against Dinesh only instead of taking any action against his wife.
There is no Law in India to Protect a Man from Assault and Harassment by a Woman. Do not be a Mute Spectator of this injustice and oppression in the name of Gender Appeasement. Lets Raise Our Voice, Share Our Pain and Demand #justiceForMen

@zoo_bear@zoo_bear I don’t understand why do you support these separatists which wants to balkanise India on the behest of ISI funding them. Not BJP, but courts across India has provided judgement against them. Are you also getting funded by ISI to support them?
बेंगलुरु में एक बस कंडक्टर ने किराया विवाद पर हिन्दी भाषी युवक को जोरदार तमाचा मार दिया.
युवक को कन्नड़ नही आती थी और बस कंडक्टर को हिन्दी नही आती थी. युवक ने संयम से काम लिया. अपना मोबाइल निकाला और मोबाइल से शूट करते हुए
कंडक्टर से पूछा आपने मुझे मारा क्यों. मेरे गाल पर निशान पड़ गया है. आपका नाम क्या है. आप नाम बताने से डर क्यों रहे हैं. जवाब में बस कंडक्टर ने गुस्सा करते हुए कन्नड़ भाषा में गाली और धमकी दी.
युवक ने इस बार जोरदार आवाज में कहा आप इंडियन हो, मैं भी इंडियन हूँ. भला एक इंडियन दूसरे इंडियन को इस तरह मारता है. (जोरदार आवाज में) जवाब दो, गुस्सा करना क्या आपको को ही आता है.
मुझे आपने मारा क्यों. मुझे आपने मारा क्यों. जवाब दो. कंडक्टर डरकर दूसरी तरफ भाग गया. कन्नड़ भाषा का सम्मान है. इस कंडक्टर पर कार्यवाही होनी चाहिए.
