Parali can be converted into fertiliser.
Parali can be converted into coal.
Parali can be converted into electricity.
Parali can be converted into paperboard.
Parali can be converted into ethanol.

Watching this old video forces me think if the role was reversed, if it was the Hindu guy beating the old Sikh man - there would be a massive Sikh gang outside Hindu’s house, beat him up, break his car and fake FIR filed & he would be jailed
In this case this Sikh man went scot free after this assault - no issues
Ignore Dog Owner's blabbering & just focus on that Pitbull aka Predat0r's behavior.
The dog is pouncing on every pedestrian including its owner.
The Owner is failing to control the dog the whole time & there is no muzzle.
These dog lover's are damn frustrated in their life by god
"If I'm not against ethanol, why not continue supplying E10 fuel for E10-compliant vehicles until they phase out?" asks @tehseenp during a debate with @PreetiChoudhry. He also questions transparency, vehicle compatibility, and consumer inconvenience over the E20 rollout.

GDP measured in gold tells a completely different story.
In 1991, US GDP was worth 16.26 billion ounces of gold.
By 2026, it is only worth 6.92 billion ounces.
That is a 57% collapse in gold terms.
China moved from 1.02 billion ounces to 4.44 billion ounces.
That is a 335% rise.
India moved from 0.728 billion ounces to 0.927 billion ounces.
That is a 27% rise.
And the world itself moved from 55.24 billion ounces to just 26.39 billion ounces.
That is a 52% collapse.
So yes, in dollar terms, everything looks bigger.
But in gold terms, the world is smaller.
The US economy looks massive on paper, but against hard money, its purchasing power has collapsed.
China is the clear exception because its productive rise was strong enough to show even against gold.
India has grown, but much slower.
The bigger message is simple:
Fiat GDP shows expansion.
Gold-adjusted GDP shows debasement.
That is why gold matters.
Ajay was a disciplined SGB investor.
He bought SGBs regularly often from the secondary market at a discount.
Same bond. Same gold. Better price.
His logic was simple:
👉 SGB maturity gains are tax-free.
Then came 1st Feb 2026.
Government said:
👍Primary issue SGBs → Tax-free
👎Secondary market SGBs → Taxed @ 12.5%
Ajay’s money didn’t go to zero.
But his tax-efficient planning did.
He followed the rules available then.
The rules changed later.
This is why retrospective taxation is bad.
It doesn’t just tax gains.
It taxes trust.

Is it the end of the Road for Silver and Gold?
Conviction is tested only in drawdowns but never in rallies.
And that forms the bedrock of the cliched statement - Buy when there is blood on the street, but the blood better not be yours.
I've been investing in precious metals since 2021. It took me six months of reading, tracking mine production, annual supply degrowth, and rising demand before I built my first real position on the 6th September 2021. Since then, I've followed the data closely every day.
My rule is simple:
Only take positions where your conviction is so strong that you could possibly go all-in. If it's not, you're just gambling, no matter how much you call it - "diversification."
Yesterday, Silver was down about 30% and gold 10% from recent highs. Here's the psychology everyone faces: We all dream of buying assets 30-40% cheaper. But deep down, we want prices to stay high forever. We crave the dip to buy low, and expect prices move up from the day we bought. That's human nature.
Gold and silver have been used as money and a store of value for over 6,000 years. Fiat currencies, on the other hand, are experiments backed by debt. The US moved away from the gold standard in 1933 domestically and 1971 internationally, because infinite debt could not coexist with monetary discipline. And therefore, the petrodollar came into being.
History is very clear on one thing: Every Fiat currency eventually collapses. (Ray Dalio’s take makes it very clear in one of his now very famous videos)
The only uncertainty is timing, whether the Fiat currencies will collapse slowly or suddenly.
And whether we are at the end of the Fiat system today or not - maybe not yet.
But are we moving towards it faster than ever before - Definitely Yes!!
So decisions to buy, hold, or sell precious metals should not be driven by daily price moves, but by your understanding of history, monetary systems, and your own temperament.
Retail investors can't slam prices like this. Over the last 10 years, big banks paid $1.3 billion in fines for spoofing Silver (data is all online).
Yesterday, with China closed and late LME trading, the "Big Boys" likely dumped to spook you out, clearing shorts or loading longs.
Its pertinent to ask a question:
When LME trading was thin and China was shut, who really slammed the price? It wasn’t retail. Price shocks often serve one purpose: scare weak hands, so that large players can exit shorts and quietly build long positions.
This fact is worth noting:
For every ounce of physical Silver available, there are about 400 ounces traded on paper. For Gold, it's around 200 paper ounces per physical one.
Inventories at metal exchanges around the world are depleting fast.
Those recent exchange outages? They're not about power failures or server cooling issues, but it's about the exchanges struggling to meet contractual obligations as paper contract holders are starting to demand physical delivery, and the system can't keep up with that.
Can prices fall more? Sure, they can. Position size is personal, tied to your conviction and biases.
But fast-forward 10 years: Gold at $10K, $15K, or $20K? Silver at $300 or $500? and y0u'll kick yourself for getting shaken out by “The Pros” who do this for a living.
Or keep buying the dip on Nvidia, Google, Amazon, Zomato, Trent, Polycab, all at unsustainable earnings (PE) ratios.
Eventually, your fortune will be the sum total of the choices you make today.
Fun Fact: Respectively, Silver and Gold are still up 270% and 140% in the last 2 years.

The Dollar index (Right chart) topped in Sep 22 and Gold bottomed the same time.
As long as dollar continues to lose vs other currencies, Gold will continue to rise.

Dear @AirIndiaX, yet to hear anything more from you on this. What is the status of your investigation? When do you plan to conclude it?
And most importantly, will Virender Sejwal be put on a no-fly list, as is the norm with other passengers, or will he be given special treatment?
My son was 16 when he was hit by a drunk driver. He was in a coma for 3 months. The neurologist sat us down in a sterile conference room and laid out the scans. 'His brain stem is intact,' he said gently. 'But the rest... it’s dark. If he wakes up, he will be a vegetable. He will never speak, never know you, never feed himself. You need to consider long-term care facilities.'
We refused. We brought him home.
We set up a hospital bed in the living room. We played his favorite Led Zeppelin records. We read him comic books. We talked to him for 12 hours a day.
Six months later, I was shaving his face, telling him a bad dad joke.
He didn't just smile. He laughed. A croaky, dry laugh.
Then he looked at me and said, 'That wasn't funny, Dad.'
Today, he is finishing his engineering degree. He walks with a cane, but he walks.
The doctor calls him an 'anomaly.' I call him a fighter. Never let a statistic determine your destiny.
In December 2012, a young woman was raped for hours in a moving bus in Delhi. She later died from her injuries. That moment shook India. Streets filled. Voices rose. The nation claimed its conscience had awakened.
At that very same time, somewhere in this country, a 15-year-old girl was growing up unaware that 13 years later she would face the same horror in NCR but this time in silence.
On 28 December 2025, a 28-year-old woman was gang-raped for over two hours in a moving van and thrown onto the road, broken and bleeding.
The crime was similar.
The brutality was the same.
But the society was different.
In 2012, we were outraged.
In 2025, we are numb.
More than 100 women are raped every single day in India. Not as headlines. Not as emergencies. Just as statistics we scroll past. This is not ignorance. This is moral exhaustion. A dead conscience.
A society that can no longer be shocked by violence against women has already failed them. And make no mistake: if this doesn’t disturb you, if it doesn’t anger you, if it doesn’t move you to demand change, then the crime isn’t happening somewhere else. It is happening within us, and in your mind.
The conscience must rise again.
Because every woman deserves a safer country. And every society that looks away deserves to be called out.
Always overpay unless you are really poor.
It creates a positive vibe with the people in your service.
The auto fare is Rs 65.
Pay Rs 100 and see the smile in the face of the driver.
The daily gym pass is Rs 500.
Pay Rs 600 and tell the gym bro that you are sponsoring his cup of coffee for the day.
He will immediately be your friend and think highly of you.
Gift books.
Gift knowledge.
Life is all about creating a good vibe that attracts people towards you.
Never behave like a stingy worm who is trying to save pennies in every transaction.
