7 years back.
I scored 510 and my friend scored 388 in NEET.
I didnt get admission but my Friend who scored 388 got admission into MBBS.
Today he is writing on Instagram "Education System" is Unfair.
Classic performative activism!
It's a tool where social issue is weaponized by the influencers to boost their own clout.
What makes such videos so jarring is the glaring contradiction between the content and the process. Behind this ten-second clip of raw distress lies a cold, calculated production process: getting ready, doing makeup, setting up a tripod, adjusting the lighting, summoning tears on command or maybe glycerine, editing out the setup and the end where she gets up to end the video, carefully selecting a trending soundtrack, posting, and then hoping it goes viral and brings clout.
This behavior is driven by the warped incentives of the attention economy. Rather than keeping the public's focus on the actual victims or the socio-political reality of the protests, the influencer centers the tragedy entirely on themselves. The narrative subtly shifts from "Look at what is happening to these students" to "Look at how deeply I am suffering because of what is happening to these students."
When I first came to India, the space industry was closed to private players.
The most well-known "startup" at that time was TeamIndus. Skyroot didn't exist.
A year later, in 2018, Skyroot was founded. Private companies in India couldn't launch rockets yet, but Pawan and Bharath forged ahead regardless, optimistic that liberalisation would happen someday.
Then, in 2020, it did. Indian companies were finally free to compete with American, Russian, European, and Chinese startups. They could build their own launch vehicles. And satellites. At an undisclosed location in the United States, Elon swallowed hard.
I was publishing videos about Indian companies on YouTube at this point. I remember thinking, "Making content about these spacetech developments is a once-in-a-lifetime opportunity."
Now, ~6 years later, Skyroot has gifted India with the biggest white pill of all time. While the world watched, a team of ~1,000+ Indian optimists (with an average age of 28) flawlessly executed an orbital rocket launch.
No private space company IN THE WORLD has ever done this on their first try. As I write this, I have goosebumps. I feel incredibly privileged to have been able to witness this firsthand. I also feel inspired by the resilience, ingenuity, and wherewithal of the entire Skyroot team.
The next chapter of India's space journey has officially begun.
India becomes only the third country in the world to achieve a private orbital launch capability after Vikram-1 Test Flight-1 reached the orbit successfully after completing its final burn and injecting payloads into 450km orbit
In 2000, Irom Sharmila of Manipur started a hunger strike against AFSPA.
Within days, she was picked up by the Manipur Police under Section 309 of the IPC (attempted suicide) and transferred into judicial custody. Because she was in judicial custody, the state took legal responsibility for keeping her alive. To accomplish this, a feeding tube was placed through her nose, and she was fed through it for a year.
Because the maximum sentence under Section 309 was one year, the govt was legally forced to release her once every 12 months. Upon release, she would immediately pull out the nasal tube and resume her fast, leading to her re-arrest days later on fresh charges to restart the cycle of force-feeding. This continued for 16 years until she got fed up with the arrest-tube-cycle and voluntarily ended the fast in August 2016. And Manipur still has AFSPA.
Sharing this for the govt to understand that you can easily solve a Sonam Wangchuk-like blackmail this way. Just invoke Section 226 of the BNS as soon as someone announces a hunger strike, arrest and insert a nasogastric tube, and feed them until they give up.
Yes, Dharmendra Pradhan is an incompetent man and should be fired for his incompetence, but the state should not allow a single individual to subvert the collective will of the electorate through emotional coercion, undermining the rule of law. Yielding to such tactics establishes a dangerous precedent where public policy is dictated by extreme self-harm rather than democratic consensus and the common good.
Once Wangchuk gives up and goes back to Ladakh, fire Dharmendra Pradhan.
Bro, Mahindra,
The issue isn't whether your E20-"compliant" vehicles are fully ready for the transition. That's common sense, we don't need an official statement for that.
The real issue is whether your E20-"non-compliant" vehicles, i.e., all Mahindra vehicles manufactured before April 2023, are safe to run on E20 or not.
If they are safe, then why does the owner's manual for your vehicles manufactured before April 2023 explicitly warn owners not to use fuel with ethanol, stating that it can cause engine damage?

Junagadh municipality dug up the road for civic work but failed to restore it properly, leaving a deep pothole. Came rain, pothole disappeared under water and dhappa! This biker suffered serious injuries. Four more accidents at the same spot the same day.
What exactly is an E20-compliant vehicle? By definition, it's a vehicle engineered to safely and reliably run on E20 fuel. That also implies a non-E20-compliant vehicle is not designed for E20. Otherwise, the term "compliant" becomes meaningless.
So my question to Mr. @nitin_gadkari is simple: Why was E20 fuel rolled out nationwide when most vehicles on Indian roads were not E20-compliant?
If the answer is, "Nothing happens. Non-compliant vehicles can also run on E20," then what was the rationale behind mandating manufacturers to produce E20-compliant vehicles in the first place? Either E20 compatibility is technically necessary, in which case introducing E20 before the vehicle fleet was ready was questionable. Or it isn't necessary, in which case the compliance requirement itself appears redundant.
You can't simultaneously argue that E20 compliance is important enough to mandate for new vehicles, yet claim it doesn't matter because older, non-compliant vehicles can run on E20 anyway.
By the same logic, why stop at E20? Why not go full aatm-nirbhar and switch directly to E100? If compatibility doesn't matter, then non-E100-compliant vehicles should run on E100 too. Clearly, that's not how engineering works. So where exactly is the technical justification?

"Bengal me sarkar banane ke liye sirf 147 seats hi chahiye, lekin BJP 180-200 ki taraf badh rahi hai. 40-50 seats zyada laakar aap kya karenge kam se kam yeh bhi to bataiye."
Good luck to Bengal now
Get ready for more hate crimes
