Dehradun shop signages are syncing to hard I just got to Dehradun, and guess what? Every shop has the same theme for their signs. (Alt text) - It’s got a brown background and bold white text. Even big international brands are using it. I’m totally digging it! It makes things so much easier for people with abilities and disabilities. Sure, it might start to look a bit monotonous after a while, but I think it also gives a nice personality to the city. Unlike some other towns where every sign is trying to be the most... 1 3 replies

There will never be Nationalised healthcare or education in India. I was wondering the cost of Nationalised heatlthcare and education in India. Nationalised healthcare was expensive and could over run the 70% of Central government tax collection. But Nationalised education was possible with around 20% of current income tax collection could possibly fund the education. But then I remembered our Brij bhushan singh of BJP owns 54 educational institutes. Kailash hospital of Noida also belongs to some politician, and so do other educational and health institutes. Our politicians have no incentive in Nationalising healthcare and education even when possible... 3 6 replies
GST rate cuts are far more important than Income Tax rate cuts. Hear me out. I see numerous news in the anticipating of Income tax rate cuts and people also suggesting to do away with Income tax and increase GST to compensate for the revenue shortfall. THIS IS EXACTLY A BILLIONAIRES & MILLIONAIRES DREAM Let me explain why it is not a good idea. Income tax is a PROGRESSIVE TAX. i.e. it increases as your income increases. Thus rich are taxed more than the poor. Whereas GST (Indirect Tax) is Regressive Tax. i.e. it applies to everyone equally no matter your income. Now at... 5 6 replies

Some People Just Don't Get It! Yesterday evening around 7 PM, I was on the metro in Dubai, travelling back from work and it was packed as usual. In the midst of all this, I saw this North Indian family of 4, clearly on holiday - mom, dad, and two teenage sons. They were all decked out in branded clothing, flaunting their shiny Apple gadgets. You’d think they’d have the class to match their appearance, right? Wrong. The mother takes out this box from her Michael Kors bag, and guess what’s inside? Sweet pan masala... 2 10 replies

China to build world's biggest dam near border; India waits & watches | India News - Times of India The staggering difference in both fiscal, military and geopolitical power and influence that two neighbouring countries have is absolutely mind-boggling. At a time, when private consumption in India is falling with each month along with rise in inflation, unemployment, low wages, it seems that China has now poised itself to be a global behemoth in the next decade outsing the U.S's influence on the world order. What's more depressing is instead of even acknowledging that we are in a severe state of economic decline along side the bracket of... 2 3 replies
Lost in the Archives: Did the MEA Bungle India’s Diplomatic Timeline with Cambodia? India’s diplomatic relations with Cambodia present a curious case of conflicting historical claims and apparent bureaucratic oversight—or worse, apathy—on the part of New Delhi. Official accounts from the Indian [Ministry of External Affairs](https://www.mea.gov.in/press-releases.htm?dtl/36629/visit+of+his+majesty+norodom+sihamoni+the+king+of+cambodia) (MEA) and the [Indian Embassy in Phnom Penh](https://embindpp.gov.in/gallery?id=e36rd) continue to place the start of these ties in 1952, even though Cambodia was still under French colonial control until November 9, 1953, and even though the late respected scholar Dr. D.R. SarDesai in his seminal work on Indo-Indochinese relations firmly dates the formal recognition to December 31,... 3 0 replies

UPI payments to get anything done sucks for non-citizens Got WiFi from Airtel the other day. The agent came home without answering any of my questions on the phone and after going through everything, it turns out you can only do UPI payments or pay with a card. Card sounds fine but guess what, international cards don't work. I tried my dad's Indian card, didn't work either, because you're apparently supposed to go to the bank and approve it for online payments. What the fuck? It only works on debit card machines for now. Want to recharge my... 2 10 replies
