Why are we so eagerly promoting hindi instead of our mother tongue ? In recent years everyone is promoting hindi and fighting for it. Not in their own state but in other states means they are forcing you to speak hindi. Instead of this we should be focusing on our mother tongue (regional language) which holds important culture, folk tales, old literature and many more things exclusive to our ancestors. If u argue hindi is National language or something it is neither a national language nor mother tongue of any indian state. Hindi was promoted by Gandhi and political parties as counter... 4 0 replies

Hello all, I'm a guy in early 30s, and I'm trying to find a Child-free (CF) woman in the 28-34 age group for marriage, doesn't matter whether she's never been married or is a divorcee, as long as she's honest about the reasons.

To those who have felt that sex outside/before marriage is worthless, please share your opinions on what have you realised about it? Hi I am an new adult, and i feel sex is an incredibly intimate and sort of a sacred thing we can do with someone, i feel that if we do engage in even well meaning and deeply intimate sex with someone, and later on don't marry them, then our ability to be intimate with the person we actually do end up marrying will surely diminish, even if slightly. But I want a more in depth explanation, maybe just a bit more elaborate than what i have felt. Just... 3 0 replies

Why do we accept decay as our destiny? If you have given up, read this. The sheer apathy we Indians have is astonishing. We walk past mountains of garbage, breathe in poisoned air, drink contaminated water, and consume adulterated food—yet we don’t flinch. Corruption isn’t an anomaly; it’s a way of life, woven into the fabric of our daily existence. We don’t fight it. We endure it. We shrug. We sigh. We say, “Yahi hai system.” We’ve normalized decay. We’ve accepted dysfunction as the status quo. Now, here’s the deal: I will take USA’s example. America’s history spans barely 300 years, yet they believe... 1 0 replies

What’s the most painful moment of your life? I'm sharing my most painful moment. When I was 16, the unbearable quality of life pushed me to run away from home. I reached the railway station and boarded the first train I saw. It took me to Jaipur, where I ate some poha outside the station before heading back in and hopping onto another random train. This time, I ended up in Mumbai. With nowhere to stay, I spent my nights sleeping on Juhu Beach and wandered aimlessly during the day. After a week, my money ran out.... 4 0 replies

Question on Indian Customs Classification: Does “Personal Use” Automatically Force HS Code 9804? Hi everyone, I recently imported a specialized product from abroad that, according to its technical specifications and the applicable tariff schedule, should be classified under a specific HS code with a much lower duty rate. Instead, I was charged a significantly higher duty based on HS Code 9804. According to the courier’s explanation, all personal imports in India are filed under 9804—resulting in 10% Basic Customs Duty (BCD), a 10% surcharge on the BCD, plus 28% IGST on the assessable value. Here’s a summary of my situation: The product... 2 0 replies

Why are intercaste (both M/F dwija) marriages frowned upon? [Serious] While it is undestandable how/why upper and lower caste marriages are considered blasphemous, why are intercaste (both dwija) marriages frowned upon? Please stick to the point. What is the importance of caste endogamy in Indian culture ? I'm curious, since I've seen many people fixate absolutely on finding a partner from the exact same caste/subgroup, regardless of any other concerns. 5 0 replies
