Almost feeling bad for @YSRCParty MPs. They ask questions in Parliament hoping to embarrass us - and end up getting official data on Andhra Pradesh’s spectacular comeback after their destructive rule. Please keep asking. The answers are helping us showcase AP’s comeback! 😄
The language we choose reflects our personality and the kind of person we are. Choose your words wisely, because over time, you become what you think, what you speak, and what you practice.
Using bad language is not cool. Abusing is not cool.
Let’s keep the definition of cool simple: being hardworking, kind, respectful towards others and yourself, striving to be successful through honesty, and making your parents and your country proud.
THAT’S COOL.
I’m speaking about this because, over the past few years, the way we perceive abusive language has changed. For many, using such words has become so normal that it’s even considered “cool.” Without realizing it, people casually use degrading and disrespectful language in everyday conversations.
@ShivAroor@ndtv@mukeshmukeshs That's crazy. No wonder protests turned violent. And police had to use force. And that was branded as state oppression of peaceful protests by the usual suspect media around the world.
@sidhant Haha they were part of the original plan to jump in this week from UK, Germany, North East India etc. All their agents. May have got paid advance too. All derailed last week itself by India. Now doing their part for what was promised.
A unique UG program at @IITKanpur! Meant especially for young ethical hackers. (Some of them are in the news 😊.) Admission through a hackathon. Specialized coursework with two year long internship at security agencies. We aim to produce cyber warriors of the future.
Dharmendra Pradhan should go.
Javadekar, and Nishank were removed from the Education Ministry for far less than what has unfolded under Pradhan's tenure.
The govt should not worry about whether Congress will portray his removal as a political victory. Let them. They are irrelevant. The govt is answerable to students and parents, and they are increasingly disillusioned by repeated paper leak controversies, CBSE evaluation discrepancies, contentious UGC regulations, and a series of avoidable crises. In recent years, there has rarely been this level of public anger directed at the Education Ministry.
Pradhan's removal should be followed by an independent probe to determine whether tender rules were altered or interpreted in a manner that favoured Coempt Edutech, and whether any conflict of interest exists between the company and anyone associated with the Education Ministry. Public confidence in the education system must be restored.
People may wonder why Justice Verma continues to persist despite the recovery of stashed cash. He persists because he knows that many judges and lawyers across lower courts and even the Supreme Court are more corrupt than him. He was caught, they were not. The Kanpur Lamborghini crash bail is the latest example.
Most of our lives are quietly spent chasing external validation, approval from strangers, institutions, audiences, and abstractions, because it feels measurable, visible, and rewarding.
In contrast, the people closest to us, parents, partners, children, friends, offer no scoreboard. Their presence becomes familiar, predictable, and therefore dangerously easy to take for granted. We assume time is abundant, affection is permanent, and opportunities to show care will always return.
So we postpone effort at home while exhausting ourselves proving worth elsewhere. Only when someone leaves, through distance, silence, or death, does the illusion break. Then the imbalance becomes painfully clear: how much energy we spent being admired, and how little we invested in being present, and that regret doesn't leave you after that.

New goals don't deliver new results. New lifestyles do. And a lifestyle is a process, not an outcome. For this reason, all of your energy should go into building better habits, not chasing better results.
