When the Greek invader Seleucus was defeated by Emperor Chandragupta Maurya, he proposed the marriage of his very beautiful daughter, Helen, to Emperor Chandragupta. Helen was Seleucus's youngest and most beautiful daughter. Upon receiving the marriage proposal, Acharya Chanakya arranged her marriage with Emperor Chandragupta!!
However, before the marriage, he set conditions for Helen and Chandragupta that served as the basis for their union.
The first condition was that no child of their union would be the heir to the throne.
The reason given was that Helen was a foreign woman with no connection to India's ancestors and was completely unfamiliar with Indian culture.
The second reason was that Helen was the daughter of foreign enemies.
Her loyalty could never be with India.
The third reason was that Helen's son, being the son of a foreign mother, could never be free from her influence and would never be fully loyal to Indian soil and Indian people.
Another condition set by Acharya Chanakya was that Helen would never interfere in Chandragupta's governance and would stay completely away from politics and administrative authority.
However, she would have full rights within the household.
Think about it... In India and across the world, no other strategist and great politician like Acharya Chanakya has ever existed.
🚨Indian Railways logic makes ZERO sense.
“Loss-making” zones enjoy great connectivity while profit-making zones struggle for basic MEMU / Passenger trains.
States like Jharkhand, Odisha Chhattisgarh & Madhya Pradesh generate huge freight revenue (coal, minerals, steel) yet lack decent intercity connectivity and fast links to major Indian cities.
Passenger Train delays due to freight prioritization is a different level torture in #LateDivisionCKP #LateDivisionKGP #LateDivisionBSP #LateZoneSER
If these zones earn money, why aren’t passengers seeing the benefits, at least basic punctuality can be ensured, right?
Indian Railways must stop treating freight regions as cash cows and turn them into passenger-friendly, profit-optimised zones too.
Revenue without reinvestment is exploitation, not planning.
