The Quint on Instagram: "Yeh Jo India Hai Na, yahan hum happy nahi hain. India is 126th in the World Happiness Report, below Pakistan, Iraq, even Palestine! India’s richest 1% own 40% of India’s wealth, while our poorest 50% own just 15%. India’s poorest 20% earn just Rs 70 a day. Why would they be happy, asks @rohitkhanna719.

Prashant Kishore explains how people in 2014 voted for an alternative to fix major national issues like safety of women and corruption and socio-economic issues like inflation and unemployment, wage gap and wealth gap. Skewed distribution of wealth. High cost of premier education and high end healthcare. Poor standard of living.

How BJP failed to fix these issues in the last 10 years while they keep blaming congress for that but themselves do nothing but distract people with Identity politics.

The students of Thakur College in Mumbai were forced to attend a session hosted by Union Minister & BJP leader Piyush Goyal’s son, with the management shutting exits and confiscating ID cards despite an exam due the next day.

With an exam due the next day, the students of the Thakur College of Science & Commerce were forced into walking up to the seventh floor for a BJP event that was sprung up on them.

Once there, the students realised that Dhruv Goyal, son of Union Minister Piyush Goyal was the spokesman at the session which was all about Prime Minister Narendra Modi and the BJP’s achievements so to speak.

Apparently, once at the meeting, students who were video recording the event were pulled up and ordered to delete the video immediately. One student who dared to raise his voice on the behaviour of the college authorities was also made to shut up.

Once Goyal left the venue, the students said, the principal came on the stage and reprimanded the students for their uncooperative behaviour.

The Indian Feed on Instagram: "As Holi draws near, creators on social media are fully embracing the vibrant festival, showcasing their unique celebrations through reels and videos. Surprisingly, the Delhi metro has become an unexpected venue for these creators, transforming their daily commute into impromptu shooting sets. However, this trend took a controversial turn recently when two women joined in, sparking outrage online due to their inappropriate behavior.

In the viral clip, the two women, one wearing a white dress and the other draped in a white saree, are seated on the metro floor surrounded by scattered colors. With their faces already covered in colored powder, they proceed to apply more onto each other's faces, choreographing their actions to the tune of the song "Ang Laga De."

The situation escalates as they rub their faces together and engage in suggestive actions, including pretending to sleep on each other and attempting to kiss, all while commuters around them look visibly uncomfortable.

The video swiftly circulated online, triggering a backlash from netizens who urged the Delhi Metro Rail Corporation (DMRC) to take action against such public displays. While DMRC has yet to respond to this specific incident, it has previously condemned similar occurrences, stressing the importance of responsible behavior among commuters."
