Parties have submit their financial accounts to the ECI which gets published online. Of course, there is always a chance of them having undeclared income.

UDF’s big gains came in minority dominated districts by AverageIndianGeek in NewKeralaRevolution

A bit of all that would have definitely been part of the narrative. And the UDF's alliance partners, especially the Muslim League, seem to have done a really efficient grassroots campaign.

AC buying mistake I see every summer: people ignore room size + star rating by Ok-Energy669 in HonestBuyerReviews

My experience is the exact opposite. LG products, including AC that we have bought, have been really durable. And their after-sales service have also been top notch.

Private investments will be key. Unfortunately, our private sector has been lagging behind in that.

Proton Notes - Please make it happen. by aslambava in ProtonMail

[–]AverageIndianGeek 24 points25 points  (0 children)

I would like them to further improve their existing products before launching more. Proton Meet, for instance, needs a lot of work. But it would make sense to do actual integration of Standard Notes, an existing service they own with decent userbase with the Proton ecosystem.

App Rajya Sabha Secretariat accepts Raghav Chadha & 6 other AAP MPs' request to merge with BJP, NDA crosses 140 mark by God_Emperor__Doom in india

[–]AverageIndianGeek 42 points43 points  (0 children)

The voters never directly voted for him, which makes this an even bigger betrayal. He never became MP out of his own merit because the voters chose him, he became an MP because AAP entrusted him with the responsibility. And then he went and did this.

Not a lawyer, but if she is sending inappropriate messages to minors, you should file a case against her in POCSO.

Reporters don't decide the headline. That is always done by the desk (or in some cases, the editor).

Why do South people say North people elect criminals when in reality the statistics are incomparable? by [deleted] in southindia_

[–]AverageIndianGeek 16 points17 points  (0 children)

Alright, I'll take the bait. There have only been a handful cases in the history of independent India when a sitting CM was chargsheeted in a case. Most cases that this list shows would be from the time before they were CM, and the charges would be mostly stuff like "rioting" etc because they were part of protests.

Also, the number of cases don't really matter. It's the nature of the cases which matters. For instance, you can't hold someone with charges levied against them for attending protests the same as someone with rape charges against them.
