An Open Letter to the Jantar Mantar protestors:
My dear young friends,
I address you today not as a politician or an MP, but as someone deeply troubled by what is happening to your generation of young Indians.
This is personal for me. I was born to a middle-class family: my father was a salaried newspaper employee, my mother a homemaker, with three children to educate on one income. For a family like ours, merit was not a slogan. Scholarships, fair examinations, honest results — these were the only way one salary could carry three children's dreams.
I went to school in Mumbai and Kolkata, to college here in Delhi, topped the University and earned admission into IIM — and chose instead to follow my passion for international affairs, in America, on a scholarship. Nothing was inherited; everything was earned by hard work and yes, Exams.
So I know that a fair, merit-based system is the only ladder for young people from lower and middle-income families to climb up. When that ladder is broken — papers leaked, examinations cancelled, trust destroyed — the children of the rich and powerful do not suffer. They have other ladders. It is your dreams, and your families' sacrifices (and tragically, in some homes, young lives themselves) that are betrayed.
To the young people gathered at Jantar Mantar, and those raising your voices peacefully across India: this country hears you. Your anger is not indiscipline — it is the anguish of a generation that did everything right and was still betrayed . You are not alone.
And to the millions of young Indians watching quietly: your generation is not a problem to be managed. You are the answer to India's future. Do not lose hope. This ladder will be rebuilt — by you, and by every Indian who stands with you.
To Shri Sonam Wangchuk-ji, my heartfelt appeal: please end your fast. You have awakened the conscience of the nation; that is what a fast is meant to do. India needs your voice for the long road ahead.
With Parliament in session again from Monday, we will have an opportunity to raise the students’ issues in the highest forum of our democracy. That’s where the problem should be addressed, not by fasting unto death. Please heed my plea.
And finally, to the Government: I respectfully urge you to reach out and engage in the dialogue our democracy owes its young citizens. That is not weakness; that is statesmanship.
#BashirBadr was heartbroken when rioters targeted his Meerut home during the 1986 riots.
He was moved to Bhopal, and in dejection, wrote lines that will outlive him:
Log toot jaate hai ek ghar banane mein, tum taras nahi khaate bastiyaan jalane mein.
Gen B C Khanduri as CM didn’t chase victory , he owned it.
All the politicians/CM in Uttarakhand before him and after him are like termites they all sold the state to land Mafias and bhai- Bhateejas. They destroyed soul of Devbhoomi which Gen Khanduri strived for .
Not even a single served state like Gen Khanduri did, he served the state as CM like he served in the army, with integrity and was always there for people of state.
Om Shanti 🙏 , sir you are immortal.
People often ask me: have you met ‘good’ people in politics? Yes, I have. Quite a few. One of them passed away yesterday. Former Ukhand CM Gen BC Khanduri was a politician who was committed to probity and public service. His work as surface transport minister in the Vajpayee led govt paved the way for a ‘road revolution’. Guess he was too honest in the end for the coarsened times in which we live. RIP. Om Shanti.

@IndianinLA@Benarasiyaa Public money isn’t personal money. Yet some parliamentarians and PSU board members treat it that way. New appointment? Office and residence refurbished at the exchequer’s expense. Accountability must mean something.
Galgotias, now in the news for robots, is the same university whose faculty once published a paper suggesting that thali and bell vibrations could kill coronavirus. My heart goes to the students of this university who will feel ashamed to say where they are studying.
Samay Raina was right when he said, Zinda logon pe biography nahi banani chahiye, patience rakho, kya pata woh aage jaakar hagg de. Mary Kom just proved him right. 😭

A Mumbai girl in Bengaluru told her friend in a cab:
"I’m so hungry… and my flight is at 2 am. What will I even eat now?" 😔
Noticing her distress, the Kannada-speaking cab driver stepped out and came back with sandwiches.
CAB DRIVER: "If my sister were hungry, I’d feel bad too"
GIRL: "I will never forget this kindness" 🥹
Heartwarming video has gone viral. This is India ♥️🔥
