I have a question regarding their Master's in Computer Science and I hope somebody can give me more infromation on it. I am planning to apply for that course, but one of their requirements for Bachelor's degree, "90 credits in computer science", confuses me. I did not study CS in Bachelor's but I have industry experience in CS and IT field. I am basically looking for more clarity on what subjects count and what do not towards the calculation of those 90 credits. They also say that a number of hardware and software courses count towards it, but I'm still not sure which of my courses (as an Electronics and Communication student) DO NOT count towards it. I studied Electronics and Communication Engineering, and I hope somebody with more information on this can help me out. Thanks!

I have JioFiber connection with 150 Mbps speed. The internet just works fine but when I stream videos on Youtube the video quality drops to 360p most of the time when on auto and can't video buffers on higher quality. The problem is with all the video streaming sites like hotstar, prime video they also drop the quality. I then and that moment take the speed test to check the connection but the results are just normal, that is, it shows 150 Mbps. Even files download at good speeds, it's just the video streaming problem. This isn't even the device problem because I experienced this issue multiple times on my 3 devices. All get the low streaming quality. I tried contacting their customer care but they ask to take the speed test and the results are fine what they are supposed to be. They say they can't help because speed is properly fine from their side and also the speed test results are also what the subscription plan speed is. Now I'm stuck. Any one else experiencing this issue or have any solution regarding this. Please help. Thanks

Is it just me or everyones epf has not been credited. My normal credit date was 28th of every month. Last credit has not happened.

It should not take more than 2 mins. Will really appreciate responses. Thanks 🙏🏻 https://www.surveymonkey.com/r/7G7YCG9

Hello, I'm planning to buy fully automatic top load washing machine. I'm confused between two models of whirlpool. 1.)

I couldn't help but notice that there are way too many Indian youtube channels that "teach" Indian history, geography etc. These are mostly geared towards UPSC aspirants and involve the presenter teaching using a whiteboard. The tone is always classroom like. But I couldn't find a single channel that uses good animation and an informal narration like John and Hank Green on Crash Course. Have you come across any such India specific channels? Crash Course: [https://www.youtube.com/user/crashcourse](https://www.youtube.com/user/crashcourse)

Hi guys, Had a small query. My parents (64, 57yrs of age) had tested positive for Covid-19 and have recovered completely and were completely asymptomatic. They did not have any medical insurance. Was thinking it is a right time to get a medical insurance for them. Any idea if they provide Covid-19 recovered patients medical insurance as well? Thanks in advance.

Would like phone suggestions around the aforementioned price range, looking for good performance, and life cycle. Not against Chinese products so call me anti-national or whatever. P.S: Giving reasons as to why it's good would be a huge plus but not required. [Repost since first one was removed] Edit: Have narrowed it down to the Poco M2 and the Realme 7, would like opinions on this, but other phone suggestions are most welcome.

I am currently in final round of interview with lenskart It's a voice profile with 6 days works and around 16k in hand is being said. But no cabs are being provided and pf and life insurance is being provided as benefits. I am having second thoughts because I am a bca graduate and going into a non technical role will it destroy my career? Also what's its like working with this company because this company average at 3 stars. Update: it turned out it's a customer support representative, should I accept or decline?

Starting in 2020, Indian Universities are able to offer fully online degrees. Though this might be seen as a response to the pandemic (which has [increased interest in online education](https://www.classcentral.com/report/moocwatch-23-moocs-back-in-the-spotlight/) and Class Central, as you can see below), India’s online degrees were made possible by regulations approved by the [University Grants Commission](https://ugc.ac.in/) (UGC) back in 2018 Early this year, [UGC published](https://www.ugc.ac.in/pdfnews/6838376_9964222_HEI-recognition-2019-as-30-01-2020.pdf) a list of 37 programs from 7 Indian universities that have been approved for online delivery.

16th September: [No Reporting On Bishop Franco's Trial In Nun-Rape Case Without Prior Permission: Kerala Court To Media](https://www.livelaw.in/news-updates/no-reporting-on-bishop-francos-trial-in-nun-rape-case-without-prior-permission-kerala-court-to-media-163002) > Mulakkal is accused of raping a nun on multiple occasions during the period 2014- 2016 by abusing his dominant position.

The Moto G9 is going to be available for 10k during festive sales and I am looking to buy it. I get that there are phones with better specs for the same price but I value durability above everything else, and Moto has never disappointed me before. Another thing is I only like stock android phones which are very few now. Use - no gaming or other heavy software; camera, battery, storage - must be good, need not be the best

News such as [this](https://www.indiatoday.in/technology/news/story/iphone-12-will-be-made-in-india-as-apple-supplier-hires-10-000-local-employees-for-production-1712777-2020-08-19) suggest that, or is the current price an already marked down value and isn't expected to come down anymore?

This is something I have spent a lot of time thinking about and I was wondering if there are others out there who might be thinking about the same. In today's digital age, privacy and data is everything; period. Our parents have no idea what it means and I feel utterly guilty to have introduced Xiaomi and Realme into private spaces some years ago. I have seen first hand how my parents and loved ones are being manipulated by these phones (which they use for 6 hours SOT or more in pandemic times). I corrected my mistake, by gifting a Nokia to my 80 year old Grandmother as her first smartphone to enjoy video calls with her great-grand daughter, and that is when I felt I was responsible for my entire family's digital presence in today's age. Old people are more prone to fall for false advertising and fake news, as already established. No Ads, No useless prompts, simply no clutter. Every notification for my grandmother becomes a concern and Nokia thankfully keeps its brand promise alive - Ever Reliable. I can feel the need for Privacy focused phones in the <10k and <20k segments as well. There aren't compelling alternatives, primarily because of the spec-war. Consumers are paying for specs with their data and that realization will probably dawn over the population over the next decade, but by then it might be too late. As of today, the only brands I would trust would be Apple, Google and Nokia. Primarily because they have accountability and the EU keeps cracking down on them time and again. Asus, Infinix and other Taiwanese/HK companies have an uphill battle as they are perceived as Chinese and will have to re-brand themselves as independent of China. Until then, they are part of the spectrum. Indian Manufacturers such as Micromax (I was a big fan, especially during the Yu Yureka period and its bold mis-adventure with CyanogenMod, and hopping too early onto the Android One Platform before it matured) have the potential to fill in this GAP. CyanogenMod gave way to Lineage and Oneplus, while Android One is now a rising force thanks to Nokia. Because Nokia still caters primarily to EU, it always keeps Indian users wanting for more. With Pixels and iPhones breaching the <30k market and given their unlikeliness in entering budget segments directly, it's the perfect time for local manufacturers to target <10k and <20k segments with the same philosophy as Google and Apple - * Be software centric - Since we don't have indigenous software to challenge the behemoths, it seems best to adopt Android One and introduce specifically tailored solutions for the populace. It's all about software, the cloud and the integrations that are possible with dozens of devices. Optimized software lasts longer, and improves with updates, not deteriorates as is the case with brands that keep rolling out software that hogs resources. * Be simple, yet useful. 4 Cameras are confusing, it's meant for younger folks. Most folks just need one good camera and not the best one. In a group setting someone always has a good camera, and people take shots and share. So a simple camera with much more deeper integrations with sharing, like Google Photos, can go a long way. Make an album, add collaborators and select faces - that's all you need to share photos with family, friends and loved ones. All backed up and distributed. and automatically updated. We take so many photos but don't enjoy them anymore, Google Photos allows me to enjoy the photos I take. * Give the essentials - A decent battery, a headphone jack and some form of water resistance. * Smartphones are passe, ecosystems are in. Smartphone manufacturers need to diversify into smart home products as well, or simply ensure their phones work best with Google Home products. Then take the time and come up with radically new home products that serve the Indian consumer's interest. I really hope this comes true, because not everyone can afford a Pixel or iPhone. In the meantime, I'm moving my family back to Nokia, the brand a middle class Indian can trust.

Congrats guys, the worst part of your life is now behind you. Irrespective of the kind of college you've gotten into you need to absolutely forget everything about 11th-12th - all the subjects, the manner in which you approached studies, your attitude towards anything other than studies, basically everything. Your perspective needs to be a lot broader now, things outside of the classroom matter arguably more than whatever's going on inside. Things like internships, freelancing, extra-curriculars, dating, college fests, volunteering, investing etc etc are now a part of your life but you need to evaluate and decide for yourself what you want your focus to be. Limiting yourself to the classroom is the biggest disservice you can do to your 4 years in college. I'm not saying you don't need to study at all but you should do that in a smarter manner. There's no need to think you need to study day and night like you did before, rather talk to your seniors and figure out the most efficient way to get a decent pointer. Always keep in touch with your seniors and value their experiences - whether it be navigating a particular professors class or doing well during placement season. Hope you guys have some eventful 4 (maybe more) years ahead of you.

just curious because a week or something ago i ported another number to airtel but then he didn't ask me to open any airtel banks account.

Indians of Reddit, I've always wondered why there is a huge gap in the USD to INR conversion for tech products. I get that there are certain taxes that are levied by the government, but that divide seems to have just grown in the last few years. The government is trying (and understandably so) a not made in China agenda but that should grant some relief to the companies that are not manufacturing/assembling in China, right? Take the recent XBox Series pricing. ₹8,000 for a controller? Seriously? Apple just went ahead with 100 as the USD to INR conversion rate. $99 = ₹9,900 (~₹7,200 as per the actual rate) $699 = ₹69,900 (~₹52,000 as per the actual rate) At this rate of divide, the only mobile brand that Indians (80% of the middle class Indians at least) will be able to afford is Jio (expected to launch feature phones soon). Is it fair to blame Apple & Microsoft or is it time to introspect?

I joined twitter in June and I quickly fell into an abyss of hypocrisy and politics by connecting with whoever came on my timeline. 4 months later, I find myself exhausted by the fact that the only thing on my TL is either politics, bhakt bashing, modi trolling memes etc. Though most of them are funny but I am tired of this. I need a toxicity-less twitter which looks like social media and not some political forum. Where people are happy and sharing stuff and not trolling or getting trolled. Where no Hindu- Muslim exists and Indians live like Indians used to. Any suggestions or if any is up for connecting? I am literally tired of this politics shit

Hey all . I hope you guys are doing good. I am thinking to get the MIDI keyboard from novation. It will be coming from UK. and i am not sure about the custom duties which i have to pay in order to receive the product. On talking with customer care they were not sure about it. However on Their website section they have mentioned this: Outside of the EU and US: Prices are displayed including sales tax and import carrier charges.* What to do?

We have been using 12 - 13 year old sleepwell mattress although it still feels good but is throwing a lot of dust and my mother is insisting on buying a new one due to that and it being so old also so here i am. Can anybody suggest a good mattress which are totally comfortable like our current mattress is a completely soft one. Basically it is a total 6 x 6 sponge of red color inside if anybody can get the idea from that. So was looking forward to buy something similar or even more comfortable but i have never bought an mattress online before so wanted suggestions first. Kindly help please if you can.

So, on October 5, we ordered some items from BigBasket(BB) worth around 1600. We have used their site before with Net Banking and it has worked fine, but this time it said that the payment failed (and I got an email right away about that). However, my bank account was already debited. It then automatically converted the payment mode to "Pay on Delivery". I started chatting with their customer service agent at that time and they told me to either retry the payment again, or just use Cash on Delivery. They mentioned that if there were any funds deducted then it would be refunded back to my bank account within 4-5 working days. So, instead of trying again with Net Banking, we just waited for COD, and then the items got delivered on Oct. 9, and we paid in cash to the delivery person. However, it has been 9 days now and the money still has not been refunded. So, I started chatting with their agent again yesterday and she first mentioned that the online payment failed, but then after doing some research she mentions that "Don't worry, the online payment was successful". I'm like what do you mean, don't worry? That means I have DOUBLE PAID as your email at that time said that the payment failed, so we paid using COD and now you are saying that the online payment was successful? She said that their escalation team would contact us, but they haven't called yet. I have written an email to their customer service account with just an automated reply so far with a ticket number. On top of that, I get two emails from BB yesterday the first one saying "Online Payment failed" and then the second one saying "Online Payment was successful" and your items will be delivered on October 9 (which is hilarious because it's past October 9 and already delivered). This is deceptive and beyond infuriating. Can anyone help me or tell me what my next steps should be. I can start chatting with them again, but it's always a new person and I have to explain them the whole thing, and they reply with the same answer? Also, does anyone know how to contact them over the phone from the US? I know they have a 1860 -... number, but can I call that number from the US? I'm currently in the US and don't want my family members to have to deal with them over the phone. Thanks.

This is a trend I've been seeing lately on Indian YouTube, mostly under shows, movies and songs. Most comments are just "like farming" saying things like... who laughed/cried/shidded 👇👇 like below who's watching in 2020 lockdown whoever reading this may your parents live a hundred years 💞💗 who is watching on bed without socks on 🧦😝 like now 👇 It's like, a new generation is discovering the YouTube comment section for the first time and all they want is likes, lol **Edit:** To the people saying "this is not limited to India": not everything is black-and-white. Asking for likes has always existed on YouTube, but this year I've noticed a drastic increase in this trend, specifically under Indian videos.

My mother is donating her kidney to my brother. We need to obtain an NOC for that from Bihar Organ Transplant Board (or maybe the health department). Does anyone know how this works? I tried searching online but not a lot of information is available on google. The transplant will be done in Manipal Hospital, Bangalore. They said that they will let me know when all the paperwork is ready, but I wanted to arrange everything before I go to Bihar.

Namaste one and all, I'm an Indian citizen residing in the USA. I'm trying to find trustable Indian income tax filing services for NRI's like me. I have been looking for options in the market for many weeks now but haven't come across reviews or sites that help you have a conversation with CA's. Does anyone have any recommendations?

So I was watching travel videos of PPPeter on YouTube where he is travelling around his native country of Slovakia and given Slovakia isn't a relatively rich country but it just looks stunning whether it's the urban areas or the rural ones, I just can't stop admiring it. Comparing India with Europe and the US is really apples to oranges. Given that the Tropic of Cancer passes through India while Europe and most of the US lie way above, this leaves most of India heavily exposed to sun throughout the year. Large swathes of plains of India are therefore dusty and sweltering with heat. A fair comparison would be with the southernmost part of the US or Mexico that also get very dry and hot. So does weather has any part to play in the natural beauty of India as compared to USA or Europe?

So, all these peeps criticising the Tanishq ad seem to be making this argument - it is always a Hindu girl and a Muslim guy. Never the opposite. When is a Hindu girl and a Muslim guy, in reality, it's love Jihad. These ads promote "fake secularism", etc. . . Erm, firstly no. Off the top of my head- Ishaqzaade and Bombay. Love story - Muslim girl, Hindu guy. Equally fucked up families. . . It pisses me off to no end, that men in this country, feel like they own women. Whether a woman dates a Muslim man (in this case it's love Jihad) or even a white guy (happened with me, in this case, you are betraying your culture by dating a man of different race), the underlying idea is - woman can't take decisions on their own and then men get to be the arbiters and judges of a woman's life choices. Fuck you guys. Fuck patriarchy. A woman has a right to marry anybody of her choice and people need to stop deciding of us women. If there's really such a thing as love jihad, let there be an investigation. Stop the armchair investigation from your computers and keep your half baked bigoted views to yourself. This country and it's attitude to women makes me want to puke. Edit 1- (a bit more explanation)- Like there are no happy marriages between different religions. And a bigger joke - like arranged marriage within the same communities are happy or free of domestic violence. Lol.

UPDATE: The show I was looking for was ['The king of warriors'](https://www.youtube.com/playlist?list=PLvZx4_jVUciY8PeYj8ndYUQJzAwPkhNlh). Thanks u/Rohit_BFire commenting it. I remember that the show was aired in 2010 in Disney XD or Jetix. If I remember correctly, almost all characters in the show were Asian . Also, to fight using Beyblades, they would go to a different dimension. It used to be my favourite show then, but now I don't even remember the name to watch it again. Edit : I will just add some plot points I remember. 1. The show is about a team of 5. They are named after 5 elements (water,air,ground,fire and electricity). 2. In the other dimension, when they fight with enemies, they use cards to enhance their Beyblades . 3. The fourth member joins the team after a test where the team is asked to solve a puzzle in 1 minute(counted using a sandclock). 4. The third member first joins one of the enemies first as the enemy gifted him a Beyblade for joining him.

When i google this i find very few options such as jio phone, micromax, lava etc. Are these the only options available in this product range or there are more that i am unaware of.

Hi guys hope you all are doing well. Please suggest anything other than phone including exynos chipset.

I might be going for a short trip to Manali in December. This is the first time I'm going there. Is there something/somewhere that I *MUST* see/ eat/ visit? I am really excited! Would love your insights!

This question has come up quite often in the last few days during debates with friends and family. I decided to come up with an easy and concise way to explain the problem and the following was understood by most. Thought about sharing it here. :) “”” Right now we have many middlemen sucking farmers and consumers alike. In a few years we will have one middleman sucking farmers and consumers alike. “”” Bonus points to those of you who can guess the name of the middleman.

[This](https://thewire.in/south-asia/imran-khans-nsa-says-india-expressed-desire-for-conversation-pak-to-insist-kashmiris-be-a-party) was the first interview of any Pakistani official by an Indian media house. Personally I thought why not, what's the worst that could happen? They don't bite, or so I've heard. Especially knowing fully well that Karan Thapar is hardly a hawk, and is actually pretty chummy with many Pakistanis, and someone not prone to be playing to the gallery. Thought it might be a positive conversation and not one where 'An Indian journalist exposed by an awesome Pakistani official'. I was wrong. A small excerpt from the interview >Yusuf was also questioned about Pakistan’s repeated refusal to take action against terrorists who target India from Pakistani soil and, in particular, the failure to prosecute the seven accused in the 2008 Mumbai killings. These men are now out on bail and either untraceable or reportedly kept in ISI safe houses. > >In response to these issues, Yusuf said “Kashmiris hate Indians”. He said the constitutional changes of August 2019 are “not an internal matter”. He said they were “a matter for the UN”. The fact that "Kashmiris hate Indians" was a standard answer to most questions, including this one >In the interview, which will go up on *The Wire*’s website at 5.00 p.m. on Tuesday, a wide range of questions were raised and issues discussed. They include why Pakistan is so worked up about the recent constitutional changes in Jammu and Kashmir. Is this not contradicted by Islamabad’s intention to give full province status to Gilgit-Baltistan? How come Pakistan is demanding Article 370 be restored when earlier it considered it a sham and Pakistani high commissioners would not meet the chief minister of Jammu and Kashmir? Couldn't personally go through the full interview primarily because it was just so pointless. I guess there was a reason Pakistani officials were not interviewing with Indians and it rang true in this case. Pretty clear that such interviews in the current context are pretty futile. These interviews are infact doing more harm than good. Hope this was the first and the last , atleast for a while. (sadly)

I've applied to more than 100 companies in the past month. I've tried LinkedIn, Naukri, Angellist but haven't gotten even a single response yet. Every job asks for experience but how am I supposed to get that experience if no one is even willing to look at my profile?

Hey so I wanted to if anyone has ever faced this issue while ordering from [nike.com](https://nike.com) So I see this shoe I wanted on sale so I decided it's a perfect time to buy it for like 10000 INR so I went ahead, the checkout seemed very normal but they did ask for a pan card details which they mentioned that they need it to make online payments easier so I gave my dad's pan card because I was paying from his card but for the address of the delivery I gave it my name because I ordered to my apartment which I just moved in (before the lockdown) so I obviously did not have any address proof yet but I just got a message from Aramex a day later saying that my name and pan card proof did not match and now they need address proof in a KYC document for customs clearance. Now I wouldn't have given my name nor my apartment address if I knew they would ask for this but they never mentioned it during the checkout and now I am in a real pickle. I know it's a rule to verify with your KYC documents but they never mentioned anything about it on their website. I have bought from amazon global store before and they made it very clear of what documents are required before placing the order. I now messaged Nike customer support and they told me I will get a refund in like 4 to 10 Business days but the order summary won't change and I have not received any email saying that my refund will be processed so now I am worried. Any help is greatly appreciated!!

I recently got a 3KW rooftop On-Grid Solar plant installed, For monitoring, it's data logger needs an SIM card with active data connection to be inserted. I was hoping that someone could suggest a SIM card which can be used for this purpose. The data usage should not be more than 100 MB/month and 2G will suffice. I do not want any hassles after installation like recharging it regularly for extending validity. Thanks!

Hello, I recently gave an amount as loan to one of my relatives overseas. The amount was 8 Lakhs INR sent as GBP. Now they are repaying me and they already have an indian account where the person is a joint holder. They are asking if they can return the above amount to me from this account since this will save the hassle of doing a swift transfer. Will there be any tax implications? The money which was used to give them the loan already had TDS. While getting it back do I need to do anything extra?

It seems my mom has become a big follower of Jaggi and whatever I say going deaf ears.

Hello there So after [The Ken article](https://the-ken.com/story/byjus-silencing-of-online-dissent/), Byjus and WhiteHatJr have stopped putting down my videos. 1. I came across someone's IG account which was suspended within the last week. So they are still targetting others. If anyone of your videos/posts etc were removed, do let me know. Send me snapshots of suspensions if possible. 2. Please don't mention Byjus as BiJuice and WhiteHatJr as barfi etc. Post as much as you can and write their exact name. Do not back out. The issue is hot, we have to break their back. We must write their accurate names ONLY. This is for those parents who don't know how Byjus rules the internet, when such parents posts their reviews they don't know if they have to write Byjus as Bijuice. Their reviews get removed. We are here to break the myth that Byjus can do any harm, once this myth and their arrogance breaks, lakhs of people will be able to post their honest reviews and our work will be done. 3. After this article, Karan Bajaj did give a lame reply over LinkedIn. " *I appreciate that every entrepreneur, just as everyone in the public domain, should be exposed to ruthless scrutiny and public debate. "* BS. He got 16 of my videos removed, 2 YT channels, 2 Reddit accounts, 1 Twitter, 1 Quora. And now he says this. It took me 2 months of constant posting content, getting an article published by Ken, and he just casually ignores the issue. 4. One of their Sales Director started messaging me, over Linkedin. For all the questions his reply was "hehe or smilies". He didn't care for anything. Did not answer a single question and kept laughing. Should I share that chat here? I ended up telling him to FO if he doesn't stop messaging me. It doesn't have any answers but does show their attitude regarding our questions. Let me know if I should post that chat or not. 5. One another Director of WhiteHatJr started telling me she will file a case of Harassment over me. Somehow I harassed her. She still hasn't answered how I harassed her. After [The Morning Context](https://themorningcontext.com/whitehat-jrs-shades-of-grey/) article: 1. Karan Bajaj again didn't reply to the actual answers. Their game plan is that because they are in the education sector, they get to lie and play false advertisements. He talks about his daughter, how she loves coding, totally deflections the questions asked in the article. 2. 'The article is behind a paywall': Yes. No one else wants to publish such articles. Many journalists from mainstream media houses (which run on ads) talked to me, and in the very end, they drop the articles. All the work, emails, information that I provide, time that is invested gets wasted. I think we can understand what happens behind the scenes. 3. We need to corner WhiteHatJr on Linkedin now to make them accountable for their lies and false advertisements. I would request you all to support over my [LinkedIn](https://twitter.com/whiteHatSnr/status/1315935056196595712?s=20). Thank you [Free Press Journal](https://www.freepressjournal.in/viral/why-are-some-people-furious-with-byjus-whitehat-jr), [Education World](https://www.educationworld.in/why-byju-whitehatjrs-ad-blitz-is-angering-parents-educators-all-else/), The-Ken, and The Morning Context for the article. ​ Thanks [Pradeep Poonia](https://twitter.com/whiteHatSnr) \---------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------

I’ve recently got into the habit of saying Lord Ganesh’s name every morning, exactly 108 times. I tried this after someone suggested me to do this for increasing my concentration. I did it and it infact increases my concentration as I have to make sure I don’t somehow say it one less time or one more. But what I never understand is why 108 or 11, as I’ve heard this somewhere too? Why not anything else? And what’s its significance?

Thousands of victims- rape/domestic violence/assault/harassments aren't getting justice or even if it is happening- it took years.

In order to achieve high-accuracy prediction to control air pollution of a particular place, highly efficient sensing devices are equipped combinedly to create an environment monitoring IoT ecosystem that operates on real-time conditions and yields currents climate trends and predictions.

I've been a loyal customer of Myntra for about 7 years and I've always been satisfied with their service until today. I had ordered 9 T-Shirts and 4 Pairs of Trousers/Jeans on Myntra. The order was split into 3 packages which arrived on 3 different days. The first package contained 1 T Shirt and 2 Jeans. However, after the package was delivered I noticed that 3 trousers had their delivery status set to delivered. This baffled me because I had only received 2 trousers. I filed a complaint within 12 hours of the arrival of the package. The very next day, another package arrived which was supposed to contain 7 T Shirts in total. However, I received only 6 T Shirts and thus 1 was missing. I again filed a complaint regarding the second package. I received the third and the last package a few days later and it had 1 TShirt and 1 pair of jeans. Here comes the catch, the T Shirt that I ordered looked no where close to the one that I ordered although it was from the same brand. I returned the T Shirt and now the Return is on hold because there was an obvious mismatch in the print. Regarding the missing products, I waited for about 4 days only to receive a message from Myntra stating that the Fraud Prevention Team looked into the matter and they said that my request has been declined because the product was shipped from the warehouse and was delivered to me. I hadn't received the missing trousers and t-shirt. The total loss I've incurred from these products amounts to about Rs. 3000. Can someone please help me and let me know what I can do further to get back my hard earned money?

My grandfather is a heart patient and he needs to get a heart treatment done soon. The doctor has said that it would cost around 15-20 lakhs. We are not capable of funding this ourselves at the moment, is there any way to get some financial support for medical emergency? Is there any government or private organisation that can help us out? I feel really helpless being a student, would appreciate any suggestions. Edit: he went through valve replacement surgery 1.5/2 years back but since a few months he again started experiencing difficulty in breathing so we contacted the doctor and he has said that the valve is not functioning well and he will need to go through another treatment to fix it. I can also provide documets and hospital bills if required.

Recently I've noticed lot of people are promoting their network marketing/MLM schemes on Instagram and WhatsApp, claiming you can join and create your downline and earn in lakhs and crores by promoting their products. What are your experiences and views on this topic?

Everything about the app is fishy. It business model seems to be that it will sell your data to make money. The CEO I believe is Kunal Kamram, formerly of FreeCharge. That app was scammy as fuck. There was this scam running around a few years back on the app. https://www.reddit.com/r/india/comments/4z1viu/freecharge_wallet_scam/ The adverts of Cred are quite weird too. Very suspicious. The CEO dude looks like a confidence scammer. A lot of gossip rags, and for hire news seems to suck this guy's dick. But it's very hard to find any details. As far as I can see, there's no helpline or customer service number for the app or website.

Hello to everybody, ​ I please need some insight from Indian residents on how warranty is typically handled in India. ​ Personally, I am from Germany, working for a company selling laboratory instruments. I am also responsible for our sales to India. One aspect that is confusing me is how warranty is handled in India. ​ In Germany, warranty means that for the period of warranty (let us say 1 year), there is a warranty on production faults with the instrument that will be replaced free of charge. Warranty does not apply if the user damages something by their own fault. ​ Now I am dealing with some cases, where our local distributor claims that even if the customer breaks something about the instrument, the customers expect everything to be covered free of charge, as this is part of the warranty. Also changes of equipment (like changing disposables) is claimed to be part of warranty. ​ Could anybody of you please help me to confirm this and to help me understand how warranty is typically understood and handled in India in business relationships? Is what I claimed above really the case and EVERYTHING is covered under warranty in India, even if it is the customers/users fault? ​ Thank you so much for your input, I am looking forward to it!

I have been given a big and round face by god. And very small ears. As a result, when someone takes a picture from front, my ears aren't visible (yes they are so small, and yes, my face's bone structure is so wide). Yesterday I went to PSK and though they approved my passport application after trying 10 times to take a picture with ears visible, they said it's the rule of international travel to have ears visible and I will be stopped at the airport because my ears aren't visible. Will I face troubles in getting a Visa or be stopped at the airport if my ears aren't visible in passport photo?

Adult male who has hit that sweet age as per the Indian marriage market. Have created accounts on dating apps, matrimonial sites and sent feelers via the offline friends & family channel. Have received some interesting leads from the offline channels. Now, I had a couple of relationships during my education (3 months each) and a brief casual dating phase thereafter. I think the other person has a right to know this before we go down this route. But I am not sure when and how to have this conversation. Too early - and it overshadows your entire personality, too late and you have manipulated them. Also if someone takes it too hard, they could inform my family and this could permanently damage my relationship with my folks. Looking forward to serious replies, replies from people who have walked this path and from girls of this age - when and how should I have this conversation?

Planning to get a 4k tv under 30,000. Samsung, Sony aren't VFM, too pricey imo. So, my list has condensed down to options like Nokia, Iffalcon, Mi, realme, Motorola also the prices are going to decrease because of the Big billion days sale. My favourite among them is the Nokia Tv, great sound quality and features. Now, I do know it's made by some Chinese company, but i'm not really vehement against it as long as it is reliable and VFM. Would you guys recommend it? What other options to look for?

The Democratic Indira Congress (Karunakaran) [was founded by former](https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Democratic_Indira_Congress_(Karunakaran) Kerala CM K. Karunakuran. While initially, this was to be named the National Congress (Indira), it was changed to DIC(K) for registration purposes. DIC(K) emerged as a result of internal problems within Congress. The breaking-off of DIC(K) from Congress came after Karunakaran was perceived as having been insulted. As per Wikipedia: > Following its split, the DIC(K) has been warmly received into the opposition Left Democratic Front combine. This acceptance has all but guaranteed DIC(K)'s return to power as the unpopular ruling combine is likely to lose badly in the assembly elections, which are due shortly. However, DIC(K) did not end up being very big in the ensuing elections. To make matters worse, an alliance formed with the UDF that complicated matters—There was no agreement on proper seat-sharing with DIC(K). This merger was so unpopular that it led to the creation of a splitaway 'DIC(K) Left Forum' that leaned a different direction. In fact, as this Rediff article from 2006 states, the [DIC(K) factor ended up complicating UDF seat-sharing](https://www.rediff.com/news/2006/mar/06ker.htm). Sharad Pawar's NCP party later decided to take DIC(K) into their own hands but even together they were unable to make it very large. Ultimately, DIC(K) became obsolete as there was no longer a need for it in Kerala. The [Hindu (Frontline)](https://frontline.thehindu.com/politics/article30209111.ece) had a very nice article on DIC(K). Excerpts: > the Indian Union Muslim League (IUML) and the Kerala Congress groups in the UDF put pressure on the Congress high command to include the DIC(K) in the coalition > An electoral alliance with the DIC(K), the one factor that could have cast a dark shadow on the LDF's prospects, thus became an uneasy burden on the ruling UDF. > Another clause in the agreement, which allegedly commits the DIC(K) into a merger with the Congress after the elections, has been denied by Karunakaran as "non-existent" > But the Congress' electoral understanding with the DIC(K), signed under the initiative of the IUML and the Kerala Congress groups, is more likely to help the latter than either the Congress or the DIC(K). There were many DIC(K) leaders at one time, but their failure to stand up together make it difficult for the party to stand out in the political climate. TL;DR There was a brief period where Indian politics had a DIC(K) but it did not stay upright for very long Edit 1: [DIC(K) Pic](https://upload.wikimedia.org/wikipedia/commons/7/7a/Tvpm-dick2.JPG)

I have created FD with Icici bank, plan ICICI pru life time classic on 2016 for a 5 yr lock in period. It's been 4 yrs and I have paid all my dues including this year, I lost my job due to covid - 19 and having difficulty managing my house finance. I went to the bank but they said I could not break it before 5 yrs. I read the whole fregging document and terms and conditions and there's a section of surrender in which it's stated that I can get the funds via a discontinued policy find value, on the earlier of death or five year lock in period. I called the bank manager again and he got me connected with pru agent and he told that only if there is a medical emergency we can give you your funds back else we can't. This seems shady and wrong as there is no mention of this in terms and conditions document. This whole thing is very frustrating and bank is a no help at all as usual. Can some one let me know what can i do to get this thing done?

I have never used telegram. Someone posted my email address and probably an old password (mostly due to the breach at Hotstar) for a free account on telegram. I got to know this because a lot of random people are now sending me emails asking for the password/ passcode and for a free account to these streaming websites. In fact, hotstar sends me an otp everytime someone tries to login so I am getting am otp every 5 seconds. This is getting absolutely annoying. Though they could not actually login, plus the email they are using is an old email that doesn't actually have a premium account. The people sending me emails are from their personal I'd which had their names, etc. One person sent me a link as well which I think had a port I'd at the end so he was trying to gain access of my router, I think. What can I do to stop this? I have already mailed hotstar, they informed me that it takes about 30 days for them to deactivate the profile. Most importantly, I want to file a complaint against the person who tried to hack me using a link. I already have his name, email id. Can I or should I do that?

It's from a popular tamil show Neeya Naana. It is also very common in movies. They potray as if women are there to woo them and rob them of their money and peace of mind. I respect if it is your personal preference not to indulge in love, but why go so far as to insult and generalize women; it tells me a lot about your judgemental abilities. Some men even go so far as to have quotes in their bedroom, back of their vehicles, whatsapp status. Dude I understand you had bad experiences with women, if it is a universal or a near universal experience, maybe the problem isn't with women, it is with you🤔. Also don't you think it is embarrassing to talk anecdotally about women? Like that literally means you are dumb. Let's talk about movies movies for a bit... They potray women as manipulative, mysterious, unachievable THINGS. Like whatt?!!! After a heartbreak the song goes like, "indha ponungaley...." ( these girls are like......) etcccccc. So many, i feel stupid to name them all. Dude, I don't care what you think. But it is kind of annoying. Like this person reminds himself everyday not to get distracted by women. Ugh. Okay. But it really brings down are purpose to distract ya all. Whattt??? I completely respect if it is your personal preference not to indulge in love, stay focused on careers and goals...but insulting women is completely unnecessary. Also what the fuck is wrong with female actresses?? I am not sure how the cinema industry works entirely, but obviously they have a choice over what movies they should act in? Movies are the strongest form of media that reaches children easily. All these young little girls will look up to them as an inspiration. Which they clearly don't because of how badly they are portrayed. They will develop a sense of insecurity. The little girls just want to be adored and look pretty like these actresses. Which is so sad. All these actresses are hypocrites. Talking about feminism off screen and accepting bad roles. I don't want to taint their image, but this issue must be brought to light. Actresses must give a deeper thought to what type of movies they should choose.

A highly upvoted [article](https://np.reddit.com/r/india/comments/j9lo2g/chhattisgarh_journalist_kamal_shuklas_health_is/), now on the front page of reddit and r/india describes the "injustice" faced by a journalist who was attacked in the state by some Congress politicians. It blames the Congress government of Chattisgarh for their apathy and arrogance, and Congress leader Rahul Gandhi of being duplicitious in his silence on this "attack" on the media while demanding boldness and neutrality from them. The narrative in it is hyped. (That's fine as its our job as the opposition to hype up legitimate issues to create more awareness on any injustice by a government and pressurise the government to defend our rights.) **What I didn't particularly like was the twisting of facts to create a false narrative.** Let's begin with the title of the post. > Chhattisgarh journalist Kamal Shukla's health is rapidly deteriorating and now he has also tested positive for Covid-19. | Two weeks he was beaten and threatened by Congress leaders and had went on fast unto death for 9 days, to demand justice. But action by the State Govt. remains elusive. So, the headline implies that he was beaten for two weeks by Congress leaders, and his health has deteriorated because of this and he has even contracted COVID because of his weakened state (implying the state was responsible for it). And it adds that state government has totally ignored him and denied him justice. **This is an absolutely false narration** as the facts are: - He was not beaten for two whole weeks - he was involved in a scuffle where he was physically attacked two weeks ago, defending another journalist, by some Congress politicians. - His health deteriorated because he was on hunger strike for the last 10+ days. - He did contract COVID during this protest. - The Congress government, initially accused of being apathetic, did act with the CM himself becoming involved. It's important to understand that there are actually 2 political issues here: 1. The attack on the journalist by some allegedly corrupt Congress politician in a police station, with the police accused of inaction and turning a blind eye. 2. Demand for Protection of Mediapersons Act. ------ #The Attack and Police Inaction [Briefly](https://www.huffingtonpost.in/entry/congress-chhattisgarh-journalists-attacked_in_5f71cd3ec5b61af20e78bccd), Satish Yadav, a journalist was assaulted by a Congress politician and his associates, and dragged to the police station, where he claims he was thrashed in front of the police. The attackers wanted him to be arrested and put in jail (why, it is not clear). Kamal Shukla, among other media journalists reached there to protest. Those who assaulted Satish Yadav, who were still there in the police station then turned on him and attacked him. While Shukla claims he was specifically targeted by the Congress for reporting on alleged illegal activities involving certain congress politicians, the police claim it was "media rivalry" as one of the Congress attacker also runs a media outlet that competes with Shukla's media outfit. He is also a social activist with left leanings and thus is also viewed as a political rival by some. > [Shukla is a senior journalist and activist](https://www.huffingtonpost.in/entry/congress-chhattisgarh-journalists-attacked_in_5f71cd3ec5b61af20e78bccd) from Chhattisgarh who is based in Kanker. A press statement issued by Kanker police after the incident claimed there was a scuffle between Shukla and Dainik Srambindu’s Associate Editor Ganesh Tiwari and his associates Jitendra Singh Thakur, Maqbool Khan, Gaffar Memon due to some personal rivalry. The police press note claims Ganesh Tiwari is a journalist with little known publications Shrambindu and Amar Stambh ... Shukla also claims he was not able to reach the SP and Collector and thus feels the whole administration was involved in the attack against him. #Protection of Mediapersons Act Shukla also [heads an organisation](https://www.hindustantimes.com/india-news/bastar-journo-faces-sedition-charge-for-posting-fb-cartoon-against-govt-judiciary/story-MZYP4vuSM2KKrsAjkJvGbO.html) called the *"Patrakar Suraksha Kanoon Sanyukt Sangharsh Samiti"* which has been campaigning for a law to protect journalists in Bastar region. The Congress had promised to bring a law to increase protection to media personnels from attacks, but is yet to do so. **Shukla has used the attack against himself as an example of why the "Protection of Mediapersons Act" is necessary and has thus made his protests about this larger issue.** That is why he was on a hunger strike to highlight this issue. **A very important point to note here**: The Congress government in Chattisgarh had already started the process of creating this law: > A committee headed by former Supreme Court Justice Aftab Alam has drafted a Bill for the protection of media persons in Chhattisgarh. The committee was formed in February to draft a Bill that would protect freedom of speech and expression of media in the state. The Bill prescribes imprisonment of up to one year if a public servant wilfully neglects his/her duties required to be performed under it. If enacted, offences under this Act will be investigated by a police officer not below the rank of deputy superintendent and shall be cognizable and bailable. Source: [Chhattisgarh Draft Law: Public Servants Who Fail to Protect Journalists May Face Imprisonment](https://thewire.in/government/chhattisgarh-draft-law-protection-journalists). #What has the government done so far? As I have pointed out, a new law for the Protection of Media is already being created. (Pressure should continue to be put on the government to ensure this law is created - we all know how lethargic, and even apathetic, governments can be to stand up for our rights). The adminstration has not been as idle or apathetic as claimed by some: 1) **Chattisgarh CM has taken cognisance of the matter and even addressed the media**: > Chhattisgarh Chief Minister Baghel condemned the incident, but claimed journalists were safer now than under the previous regime. This incident is condemnable. It should not have happened. If it has happened we will take strict action,” [Baghel said in a press conference](https://www.huffingtonpost.in/entry/congress-chhattisgarh-journalists-attacked_in_5f71cd3ec5b61af20e78bccd). 2) **Police complaint and FIR has already been registered**: > Confirming the assault incident, the superintendent of police, M.R. Ahire, told [The Wire](https://thewire.in/media/chhattisgarh-journalist-kamal-shukla-attacked-by-local-congress-leaders-fir-registered) that an FIR has been registered in the matter under sections 294 (public acts of obscenity), 323 (voluntarily causing hurt), 506 (criminal intimidation) and 34 (act done by several persons in furtherance of common intention) of the Indian Penal Code (IPC). As per the local police, Jitendra Singh Thakur, Ghaffar Memom, Ganesh Tiwari, Maqbool Khan and others have been named in the FIR ... the police have described the assault as a clash between two groups due to some ‘aapsi ranjish’ (personal rivalry). 3) **A police official has been suspended, and a [Special Investigation Team formed](https://indianexpress.com/article/india/chhattisgarh-journalists-assault-sit-formed-after-panel-points-to-inaction-by-police-congress-6720180/) - this was done on the basis of a report submitted by a panel of journalist formed by the Congress government**: > The decision came after a six-member journalists’ panel set up by the Chhattisgarh government submitted its report on Saturday. Kanker **police station in-charge Mordhwaj Deshmukh was suspended by Bastar IG P Sundarraj on the directions of Chief Minister Bhupesh Baghel**. “Following the factual report of the journalists’ panel, an SIT has been set up by Bastar IG to investigate the incident. The CM has instructed the IG for immediate action,” read a statement issued by the state government. 4) **Congress party committee is also investigating the matter** > [The Congress party had formed a separate committee](https://indianexpress.com/article/india/chhattisgarh-journalists-assault-sit-formed-after-panel-points-to-inaction-by-police-congress-6720180/) to look into the attack on October 1, besides the one set up by the state government. 5) **After the protests, even the [Governor has received a delegate](https://indianexpress.com/article/india/kanker-journalist-calls-off-hunger-strike-6721401/) of the journalist**: > His letter was submitted to the Governor by a 10-member delegation, including several journalists. “The Governor has assured the delegation that the case will be duly investigated and the culprits will be punished,” a statement from the Governor’s office read. ------ #How do you know when a democracy is functional? Only when you can protest without repercussions and the government is prepared to listen to you and act on your reasonable demands.** In this case, hasn't the Congress government in Chattisgarh reciely that? **So all of you in the anti-congress bandwagon claiming that Congress or Rahul Gandhi is just as uncaring or undemocratic as the BJP are not only wrong, but being mislead by a false narrative.** (Indeed, Chhattisgarh Chief Minister Bhupesh Baghel should be praised for the way he has democratically handled this issues - the Congress, and Rahul Gandhi, like to speak through actions and it shows so in Chattisgarh on this specific issue too.) **The media should definitely protest for their rights, but shouldn't fudge the truth while doing so**. But then, I fear even the media, like some of us ordinary indian citizens, have gotten so used to the dysfunctional democracy of the current Modi regime that they've forgotten how a real democracy actually functions! With the persistent attacks the media faces by the Modi government, and their low image today in the eyes of the public, one would have thought that they would actually be happy that a national political party like the Congress, and its leaders like Rahul Gandhi, are still willing to stand up for them to protect a free press in India by staunchly supporting the idea of a law to protect media persons. **Especially when the Chattisgarh government has already created the first draft of the law to protect media persons.** Instead some journalists pettily choose to attack the Congress leadership using this issue just because Rahul Gandhi had politely reminded them of their deficiency in public in not being true to their trade. This law currently being drafted, will be rolled out and tried in Chattisgarh first, its impact assessed, and will then be rolled out in other Congress states too. It may become a central law too, when the Congress comes to power. (Another reason for all the current hype is because of the upcoming by-poll in Chattisgarh, and other states where it is a direct contest between the Congress and other parties - and the godi media needs to meet their quota of anti-Congress articles that earn brownie points with the government in power, while also putting down Rahul Gandhi for his barb on them about always towing the Modi government's line /s).

Hi, let me know if there is any subreddit which discusses about technology in our country. Mainly purchase advice and specs overview of latest devices. Probably, there isn't any. So, let's set it up. Guys who are interested in becoming moderators, please comment.

Hello I'm really paranoid about going in as an unmarried couple and staying in OYOs. Are there any reported/unreported cases of blackmail or raids in them? Thanks in advance :)

This is a rant. I know one person who completed PG in medicine in bangalore and he was working in multiple hospitals earning 4L a month just 6 months after MD. Another one completed MD pathology and he gets around 1.5L for his 3 hours in lab. This level of money doesn't exist anywhere in the world for any kind of job. Top level CEOs of small companies might make that much but that too with little to no job security. In India the ratio of salaries of doctors with respect of normal population average salary is more than 10. While nowhere in other countries this ratio is skewed that much. It shows, how our government has created artificial scarcity of doctors and made it more lucrative profession. That is why healthcare is out of reach for many people.

Hello guys , i want to remake a beat but it have an indian song in it. I would really appreciate if any if you can help me to find the song. A lot of love to you🙏🏻✌🏻 It start at 0:38 https://youtu.be/llHOAxv7mhc

I was looking at flight options to fly, so went and checked Air [India.in](https://India.in). And to my surprise, their website is not Secure. Is there any secure options through which I can book an Air India flight ? ​ Also, how can a major airline not have a secure website? ​ ​ [http://www.airindia.in/](http://www.airindia.in/)

Had put my electric kettle (that is for boiling water) in the dorm kitchen and some Indian guys tried boiling milk tea in it and ruined the thing by burning the bottom. So I'm just wondering if these guys were the exception or are there actual different electric kettles for making tea in India? Because a normal electric kettle isn't supposed to work like that to my knowledge (and the bottom burning is an obvious point to that).

I am trying to look for online websites to buy chiffon saree with heavy work. Do you know any online stores that have a good collection of sarees and ship to US as well ? I have already checked nalli.com out couldn’t find what I was looking for. Would love to buy from small businesses as well if there are any who can ship outside of india

Does anyone know where I can find a good source for COVID projections for India that have come out recently and include the peak? All of the sources I am able to find are a few months old and seem to be outdated.

So I have finally decided to buy an Aeropress and was wondering what's the best place to buy it from. I saw it for sale on Blue Tokai's website, Amazon and the official website of Aeropress ( shipped directly from the USA, costing me the same as everywhere else ) I really don't know what difference would it make but hey, doesn't hurt to ask right?

Hi, I'm planning to buy Google Nest home security system from US and bring it to India. But I'm not sure if it will work because it's not available in India, so location might be a problem. I was wondering if anyone has installed google nest home security system - nest camera, motion sensor, door/window open sensors. If you have used it how hard was it to setup things and did you face any issues while setting them up. (I'm aware of the voltage difference)

Im asking this because Im interested in real products from India. Im looking for big online shops that sell all sorts of things, with international shipping. preferably cheap international shipping.

It is, more based on human emotions, answers may vary in wider ranges, actually maybe, I'm not looking for the answers, I'm just looking for more better questions for my question.

Where I live and in my immediate circles(upper middle class, urban India), almost no one seems to have taken WhiteHatJr seriously and are well acquainted with what coding really is, so most young children in my neighborhood haven't yet been forced to get into this bullshit. However how is it in your circles and your neighborhood. How are you planning to make people aware that WhiteHatJr actually may not do anything, apart from the fact that it may ruin a child's childhood and also their mental faculties. What have you done? I've also asked this because WhiteHatJr seems to be a hot topic here.

I'm a university student and in great dilemma at this point. I am to give an entrance exam that is on February next year but the application dates closes in October 2020. My university is far from my home state and I can't afford frequent travel between the two places. I have to choose an exam centre, and I am in dilemma of which place do I choose as my centre, the home state or university state? So I wanted to know if anyone has any idea by when the government will open up the colleges and universities. With everything opening up, will the colleges and universities also open up by Jan-Feb 2021?

I remember distinctly that when the 8 franchisee were bought in 2007 for IPL teams, they were sold on a lease for 10 years. Mumbai was bought for $111m. That would have ended after 2017. The franchisee got a mandatory share of TV revenue then. How is the revenue model working now? As most of the teams are the same as the original, were new auctions held in 2018 or all the teams were allowed to continue as it is ? Any insights is appreciated.
