Just in: A 48-year-old Software Architect from Bangalore was forced to resign after developing a disability. In his 20-year career, he paid over ₹2 crore in taxes, income tax, cess, surcharge, everything. A law-abiding, tax-paying citizen who built India’s tech backbone.
But the moment he lost his job, the system he funded turned its back on him.
No unemployment benefits.
No disability pension.
No financial support.
Just rising bills and a body that now needs regular treatment.
He’s trying to survive in Bangalore, one of India’s most expensive cities, while battling mounting expenses. He’s looking for freelance work to stay afloat, but even then, 31.2% of every rupee he earns is snatched away as tax.
But the cruelty didn’t stop there. He submitted a claim for his disability insurance, expecting some relief.
The insurance company rejected it, saying, “You didn’t mention this condition in your original application,” even after submitting all the medical test reports proving it developed after the policy was issued.
So let’s get this straight😡:
🔹He paid his taxes religiously for 20 years.
🔹 He bought insurance and paid hefty premiums.
🔹 Now disabled, jobless, and abandoned, no claim, no help, no justice.
🔹 Still forced to pay 18% GST on his health insurance premium, despite having no income.
What kind of country punishes its honest citizens for falling sick?
This is not just his story. This is the story of millions of middle-class Indians who are taxed, looted, and then thrown away like garbage the moment life gets hard.
This is not India. This is a brutal hell.😡😡😡
Just in: Spoke to a person who paid a total of ₹1.35 crores in income tax over 14 years of relentless hard work. Its just income tax, just imagine how much he could have paid in VAT/GST and other taxes.
Two hospitalizations, one layoff, and now he's staring at bankruptcy, drowning in debt, with every rupee of his PF savings wiped out.
Today, he's unemployed, with ZERO support from the government. ZERO. Not a rupee, not a word. This is the "reward" for being an honest, law-abiding taxpayer in this country. A brutal, unforgivable betrayal.
And sadly, this isn’t an isolated case, I’m hearing countless similar stories in just the past month, both on X and outside. These are truly dark times for India’s industry and employment.
At the very least, the government should have mechanisms to support genuine, high-contributing taxpayers when they are crushed like this with Unemployment Allowance.
One request for fellow Indians
let’s try and support domestic cos as much as possible.
If u r Manufacturer, think of reducing inputs from China.
As a consumer - buy as much as possible from Indian cos. Make our family aware of this. Support SMEs.
I know it’s easier said. But If we can do 10% shift , it will add up..

Yes. Gandhi wanted to defend the killer of a Hindu saint.
Not just defend — he admired his "courage."
Gandhi, who never offered to fight for Bhagat Singh, for Sukhdev, for Rajguru, or Chandrashekhar Azad —
wanted to stand with Abdul Rashid.
जब दूसरा विश्वयुद्ध समाप्त हुआ तो अमेरिका के पास 22000 टन सोना जमा हो चुका था। स्वाभाविक था कि यूरोपीय देशो ने सोना बेचकर उससे हथियार खरीदे थे।
युद्ध के बाद वाशिंगटन मे सभी देशो की मीटिंग हुई और यही समस्या रखी गयी कि किस मुद्रा मे व्यापार करें...?
क्योंकि ब्रिटिश पाउंड की स्थिति खराब थी।
तब अमेरिका ने कहा कि डॉलर मे लेन देन क��ो।

This is the real story of a Twitter friend, a law-abiding Indian citizen, a salaried professional who paid ₹1 crore+ income tax, and what he got in return is enough to make your blood boil.
30 years after buying legal land, it’s still unusable.
5+ High Court orders ignored by Revenue Dept.
The system failed him, despite being a top taxpayer.
Here’s what happened 👇
