The Class 12 student whose blog set off a week of upheaval at the CBSE used the board's own deadline reminder to needle it on Sunday, asking it to extend the re-evaluation window because he had been “busy this week exposing you”.
Sarthak Sidhant, a student and blogger from Ranchi, Jharkhand, was replying on X to a CBSE post telling Class 12 candidates that June 7 was the last day to apply for verification and re-evaluation of their answer sheets. The portal will be open till 11.59 pm, June 7, a deadline the board had already pushed once, from June 6, amid complaints of portal glitches.
“Can u please extend the deadline please because i was busy this week exposing you,” Sathak Sidhant posted as a reply to the CBSE's post.

I’m a Gujarati. Born and brought up in Chennai.
Tamil is the language I heard on the streets. In buses. In shops. In friendships. In daily life.
It shaped me as much as Gujarati did. So when this debate comes up, I don’t see it as North vs South. I see it as respect vs entitlement.
Yes, Hindi matters. If you want to do business with the North, work there, travel there of course it helps. I use it too. No insecurity about that.
But there’s a difference between learning a language
and forcing a language. Forcing never builds unity. It only builds resistance.
The South doesn’t have “one language”. It has many. Each with centuries of history, poetry, emotion, identity.
These languages won’t die in one generation. They’ll die slowly. When people stop valuing them. When children stop hearing them. When others refuse to learn them.
And that’s how cultures disappear.
If I choose to live in Tamil Nadu,
do business here, build my life here… then learning Tamil isn’t “adjustment”.
It’s gratitude. It’s saying….This place gave me opportunity. I’ll give it respect.
India was never meant to sound the same everywhere.
Our power is in our accents.
Our scripts. Our stories.
Many languages. One country.
That’s civilisation.
A man can be deeply in love with you and still walk away without looking back. Why? Because to a sensible man, peace is more valuable than love.
People hate hearing this. They want to believe that if a man loves you, he will endure your chaos forever. That is a lie.
Take the story of David and Simi.
David was a perfect definition of real man.
He was the kind of man who did not just date you, he upgraded you. When he met Simi, she was struggling with her final year project and battling depression. David stepped in. He paid for the research, he stayed up nights proofreading her work, and he got her a job at his friend’s firm after graduation.
David loved Simi with a quiet, intense fire and was planning to propose in April.
But Simi had a problem. Simi believed that a peaceful relationship was boring. She grew up watching toxic movies where passion meant fighting, screaming, and breaking things, only to have makeup sex later. To Simi, David’s calmness looked like weakness.
She started testing him. She would pick fights just to see if he would yell. She would threaten to break up just to see if he would beg. Every time she acted crazy, David would calmly apologize, hold her, and reassure her. She told her friends she had him wrapped around her finger and he could not leave her because he loved her too much.
It happened on the night of David’s biggest career achievement. He was receiving an award at a gala in Victoria Island. All his investors were there. David asked Simi to be ready by 6 PM. Simi decided to test him again. She wanted to see if he would wait for her. She did not start dressing until 7 PM. She ignored his calls. When David finally came to pick her up, he was sweating, anxious, and late.
Instead of apologizing, Simi flared up. She asked him why he was rushing her and if the award was more important than her. She screamed that if he wanted to go, he should go. She expected him to beg. She expected him to say No baby, you are my world.
Instead, David looked at the time. He looked at her, sitting on the bed in her robe, scrolling on TikTok while he stood in his tuxedo. The light in his eyes went out. He wanted to argue but paused and He simply said Okay.
He turned around, walked out of the apartment he paid for, got in his car, and drove to the gala alone.
Simi was shocked. She called him 50 times that night. No answer. She sent texts saying she hated him, then she sent texts saying she was leaving, then she sent texts saying she was sorry. Silence.
The next morning, she woke up to a credit alert. David had sent her two million naira. The narration on the transfer readforr your rent and upkeep. Take care of yourself. She rushed to his house, but the gatekeeper told her Oga had traveled. She called his friends, and they told her to let him go.
Simi spent six months waiting for him to come back. She told everyone he loved her and he would come back because they had a bond. But this time, David was done.
One year later, Simi saw pictures of David’s wedding on Instagram. He married a lady who was not as pretty as Simi. She was not as fashionable. But in every picture, David looked rested. He looked like a man who could finally sleep with both eyes closed.
Simi fell to her knees in her room. She realized too late that she had treated a husband like a fan. She thought his endurance was infinite. She did not know that a man’s tolerance has a breaking point, and once it snaps, not even God can glue it back together.
Do not mistake a man’s patience for stupidity.
Here are some unique lessons that all the so called film makers can learn from Dhurandhar
1.Unlike the other so called pan india big films , the film doesn’t even try to elevate the hero and give him the so called elevation moments to make the audience forcefully worship him with the use of slow motion and ear splitting background music . It actually lets his flaws and the related consequences coexist, thus making the audience tense instead of giving a clap trap applause.. it is incredible that @RanveerOfficial the star steps back to allow #akshayekhanna to fill the frame because that is the requirement of the story and is a testament to Ranveer’s understanding of cinema
2.Unlike how most films explain, Dhurandhar withholds. Long stretches of silence explode what pages of exposition cannot do in other films
3. It treats violence not as spectacle but as a psychological blow .. @aejazgulab does a fantastic job as the action director who doesn’t care about giving clap trap moments but he integrates the characters and their current state of minds into every ounce of it’s violence .. Gulab’s action in the film is the finest I saw in Indian cinema and I frankly can’t think of even a Hollywood film to beat it from the top of my mind .. There’s a lot to learn from Aejaz Gulab especially for the South Indian pan India action directors because every blow of his leaves an emotional residue, both moral and physical, long after the scene and the film is over
https://t.co/c197cEtnPU abandons the three act safety net.. The narrative moves like real life , uneven, impulsive, sometimes abrupt , rejecting neat rises and cathartic payoffs.
https://t.co/CdB6yhdCVk trusts the audience’s intelligence unapologetically
No spoon feeding, no emotional underlining. Meaning is discovered, not delivered.
https://t.co/Vgy6xlim3p makes the sound design a lead actor even in its background noise, breathing, distant chaos, the whole sound becomes a psychology in the film , and not just accompaniment.
https://t.co/SxPicZtYIh refuses genre loyalty because it mixes a blend of political thriller, character study, visceral action film and moral tragedy among many others thus shapeshifting the cinematic horizon
8. For the first time I experienced background music becoming foreground music , that doesn’t tell you when to feel heroic, scared, or relieved. The constant unease yet peppered with a emotional rollercoaster is the real soundtrack of the film achieved by the unimaginably talented @shaswatalogy
9. Dhurandhar treats cinema as confrontation and not consumption because it doesn’t want to just entertain you for three and half hours , but it’s real intention is to stay with you long after the film is over and maybe forever
Hey @AdityaDharFilms , A big thank you for making Indian cinema finally grow up and for giving all us film makers past , present and future too, to once again take baby steps holding your hand
DHURANDAR’s success is not being just another BLOCKBUSTER , it is a WARNING to the film industry to GROW UP
The latest annual increment has raised our driver Dayanand Bhaiya’s monthly salary to Rs. 53,350 plus insurance, one-month Diwali bonus, and a scooty.
He joined us 13 years ago at Rs. 15,000 and has since become an integral part of our family while building his own life. His three children are well-settled in good jobs and happily married. He continues to live frugally, with unwavering punctuality and discipline: wakes up at 4:30 a.m., sleeps by 8:30 p.m., is never late, and always carries a smile.
He isn’t just our driver; he is our trusted partner.
He drives our children to classes, holds duplicate house keys, knows our ATM PIN, handles all important errands that don’t require our presence, treats me as his own (addresses everyone in the family as tum and not aap) and is someone I trust blindly with the safety of my family and myself.
He saves us time, mental load, and effort. In return, all he ever wanted was trust - which we gladly gave.
He has been one of the best uses of our money, and I can’t wait for him to reach ₹1 lakh per month in the next 5–6 years. 😊
@VigneshAnand_Vm@TNelectionsCEO Hi sir, they have removed names of many people.. i came across this situation, apparently they would ask you refill form 6 again with the old Voter ID as address proof.
Online process is easy but no explanation given as to why the names were deleted from Roll
@RailMinIndia@GMSRailway@IRCTCofficial
Sir, unable to opt out of Food in Vande Bharat trains in all IRCTC based apps while booking tickets.
This is not reasonable. Request your attention to this please
