I recently got annoyed by this because the last time I booked a refill and he made my father to collect it from a very far place instead of home delivery that too charging over price. This triggered me a lot, and this time,... 2 11 replies

I’m not sure if we realise this or not - TN is no longer the amaithi poonga, violent deaths are getting more common and there seems to be almost no media shakedown or citizen protests. We go on with our... 5 8 replies

Earlier we demolished using caste name in our names, done by periyar in 19th century. and I told this will make it difficult for the discrimators to identify and judge, so... 4 20 replies
Is sunscreen or anything similar to sunscreen common and considered important in Tamil Nadu nowadays? So I grew up in Tamil Nadu, where I did my schooling and bachelors degree.
