The CJP movement led by Gen Z affirms that democracy is a much cherished ideal in India. We are not the world's largest democracy simply because we vote, but because we value it enough to defend it.

Cockroach Janta Party withdraws its nationwide agitation with immediate effect
All demands of the Cockroach Janta Party have been accepted by the government:
1. Maximum possible compensation for families of NEET paper leak-related suicides
2. All FIRs by Central govt and NDA-ruled states will be withdrawn, and no action will be taken against anyone involved in these protests in the future.
3. CJP’s 5-point exam reform charter will be considered by the govt and the CJP will meet with the govt to discuss these reforms further.
This life insurance ad was played over and over while I was watching a series on Amazon Prime. For anyone who has lost a parent, it's not just an ad..it is a painful reminder of grief.
Platforms should put a little more thought and avoid sensitive advertising. @PrimeVideoIN
I ordered a packet of @doodhvale milk for my 1 year old kid from @ZeptoNow. On boiling, there was a foul smell. After some time, it looked like this.
I have previously complained to @ZeptoNow about similar issues with diary products but nothing seems to have changed.

What does and should emerge from Galgotias University Robot Controversy is that even in the age of AI, academic ethics cannot be compromised. Interestingly, plagiarism is one of the greatest concerns that educators have about integrating AI in learning.

My views on #AISummit and the episode around
I believe that we need to bring in positive and valuable points from the summit to let people on ground understand and aware about potential impact of AI in India’s future, instead of roaming around one episode of one exhibitor.

While some media houses cannot stop glorifying the establishment, there are also some who are hell bent on finding a fault. Neither approach is objective.
Things we didn't ask for:
1. 24*7 News Channels
2. Jungle news on News Channels
3. Instant delivery apps
4. EMI option to buy almost anything on shopping websites
5.
One wonders if they have done more damage than good..

Extremely pathetic response of @IDFCFIRSTBank
I deleted tweet on 21 Aug on their promise that my grievance will be resolved.
I got contacted by bank representative, they sent me another form, i went in person from Delhi to Lucknow and submitted it after Diwali.
Now no response
Aaghaz E Dosti in collaboration with Art'est an art abode" invite paintings for 14th Peace Calendar.
Kindly share with schools, teachers and students.

Insane that there are politicians and political parties who equated national emblem with religious emblem and resorted to using words like "blasphemous". Don't take government fund, stop using indian rupees if you have zero respect for state symbols.
