Men who don't harm women are not special. Men who don't cheat are not exceptional. Men who treat women as equals are not heroes. Cooking in their own homes and caring for their children is not help, it's responsibiliy. This is not praise-worthy behavior. This is the baseline. This is what a normal, decent man should be. Stop applauding men for meeting the bare minimum.

Freebies to politicians, large farmers and non-poor women must be avoided in debt-ridden Punjab.

Unless it’s a life-threatening or medical emergency, 10-minute delivery should be banned. Why do you need everyday items, including food, in 10 minutes? It puts delivery workers' lives at risk and subjects them to extreme stress. This is totally avoidable.

Did you know ?
In 1962, PM Nehru asked public to donate gold in National Defense Fund to help in war expenses
Punjab donated 252 kg gold in the fund while rest of the country donated just 5.3 kg
One can’t even expect this from people who’re chanting fake nationalism nowadays and questioning Punjabis

I have a prediction. In a year or two max we are going to get sick of social media, sick of reels, sick of this serialkiller Netflix shit and go back to reading books, playing gully cricket and actually enjoying food rather than taking pictures of them.

If a Muslim had thrown a shoe at the Chief Justice of India while shouting that he’s doing it for Islam, he would already be in jail under UAPA by now, without trial or bail.
But since it’s a Hindu man saying he did it for Sanatan Dharma, he’s now giving interviews to ANI.

Relieved to see Peace and calm returning to Ladakh. One thing that is unacceptable is some misguided people trying to call the Very PATRIOTIC people of Ladakh as traitors. Almost half their male population serves in the Ladakh Scouts. They have taken part in each and every one of india's wars since independence and made huge sacrifices and Earned so many awards( including Ashok Chakra and MVCs etc). They are a very brave people of a very sensitive border region. We canot afford to let their grevances fester

Sonam Wangchuk has done more good things for India than all BJP leaders combined.
They are targeting him because they cannot tolerate educated people who speak up for their rights. They want everyone to be dumb Andhbhakts. It is similar to how Hitler targeted Albert Einstein.

Not only is a divorced daughter better than a dead daughter but a divorced daughter is also better than a daughter who is unhappy and constantly suffering. Do not force your girls to stay in toxic marriages for the sake of society. Start standing up for them PLEASE.
