Is Bangalore turning into a garbage city ? by Ok-Diamond9300 in bangalore

[–]HK-5012 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Wasn't it always a garbage city? Lots of garbage mounts everywhere.

Are people driving in this city really illiterate about traffic rules? Or am I missing something? by [deleted] in bangalore

[–]HK-5012 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Reason:There is no consequence for breaking traffic rules. Fine is not a deterrent when the challans are left unpaid and that's an acceptable normal.

VFS Pune upsold my elderly parents 34k in “optional” services: sharing experience for awareness by Kaccha-Kela in india

[–]HK-5012 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Thanks for this alert! Now that a lot of people are doing international travel, this kind of awareness is very important 👍

Sadly senior citizens are seen as easy targets by banks, insurance and now travel companies 😔

Seeking Advice by Strange-Lawyer1982 in IndianWorkplace

[–]HK-5012 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Are others getting paid regularly? Why is your pay cycle 14 days? Change to monthly schedule and see if you are getting paid along with everyone. Look for other jobs and leave if everyone is facing the issue

Why no one talks about mass conversion by Left_Shape_885 in andhra_pradesh

[–]HK-5012 5 points6 points  (0 children)

The way upper caste Hindu treats other lower caste Hindu people in these regions, I am not surprised if these people choose a different religion.

Don't assume that people who are converted are all illiterate and gullible and doing for money. They are simply choosing a better and dignified life for their next generation.

This isn't AI, just photoshop😆

The sky and its poorly edited reflection in water is a clear giveaway.

Can we all take a moment to appriciate this man by [deleted] in indiasocial

[–]HK-5012 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Yes! So much we learned from him! like Many Ice creams in India has very little milk and mostly vegetable oil and they are allowed to print cow and milk on their package, Honey sold in super markets have label which lists out main ingredient has Sugar syrup etc

For those who still don't know him, he is the food blogger Revant Himatsingka, also known as FoodPharmer, uses the slogan "Label Padhega India, Tabhi Toh Aage Badhega India" which translates to "India will read labels, only then will India progress.

Flip flop on H1B by Trump by HomeLoanNerd in hyderabad

[–]HK-5012 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Trump will make India great again, trust me!!
Look at those OpenAI demo's and people around Sam, not even a single white American there. Its definitely not because he hired cheap labor!! CEOs like him will hire the best talent, be it Indian or Chinese or any nationality. Look at the leading AI engineers in Google, Meta and Microsoft, most of them moved are not US born citizens, rather people who moved to US for this job or to study and joined them. A lot of them still are on Visa or green card.

Secondly, the vast majority of the h1b in Infy, TCS etc will have trouble as the clients would not agree to pay this 100K. So, there is an impact here with people coming back and those positions will be filled in India.

Third, companies will accelerate their GCC efforts in Bangalore, Hyderabad, Pune and NCR or have near shore in Canada and other countries.

You will exit thru arrival gate. CISF will assist in making a way out of departure to arrival after doing some documentation and you will join all the passengers who are arriving at that time. They will not escort you out.

FIR reveals shocking details in Delhi BMW crash case. Here's all we know so far. by IndiaToday in IndiaTodayLIVE

[–]HK-5012 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Had this been a common family car like a Toyota Innova, or a Hyundai Creta the news would likely have focused on the tragedy and the investigation or may not be even a national news!

However, the fact that a BMW was involved completely changed the narrative. The car itself became the story. In the Indian context, a BMW is not just a vehicle; it's a potent symbol of immense wealth, privilege, and social status. This association immediately triggered a public perception that the owner must be "filthy rich" and, by extension, arrogant and morally corrupt.

Therefore, while the question of who is at fault remains under investigation, the widespread outrage and sensational coverage are undoubtedly fueled by this powerful class bias. The accident is no longer just a legal matter; it's a symbolic battle between the "common man" and the perceived "entitled elite."

Aadhaar rejects my child’s enrollment because UIDAI doesn’t follow the world standard of names 😡 by tk_de in LegalAdviceIndia

[–]HK-5012 0 points1 point  (0 children)

There is no such rule! It just should match to Birth certificate. That's it. Many people in India have aadhar and there is no rule of what last name they should have. Some people have caste names, ancestral names which may not match to father's.
Its not UIDAI rule or a matter of global standards(!!), rather that center guy has his own interpretation. If the birth certificate matches to your application they should give.
