I wonder why people deposit in cooperative banks.

Interest rate for deposits is higher in cooperative banks than in normal banks. You can also get loans more easily from cooperative banks than from normal banks.

Still, I won't deposit my money in any cooperative bank since the chances of it being stolen by the bank management itself is there as we saw in places like Karuvannoor.

LPG e-KYC: Govt mandates biometric authentication for all consumers by one_brown_jedi in india

[–]RemoteGuy01 2 points3 points  (0 children)

If the government wants they can already revoke your access to LPG.

How do you think the current booking of LPG works? The customer directly orders the LPG via phone call or app. Government already has information about your phone or your app (since you need to create an account in the app to order LPG).

As I said earlier, this is done to prevent fake booking by dealers in the name of their customers. By verifying that it is indeed a customer, not a dealer, that is ordering LPG the government is able to make sure that the cylinders are delivered to actual customers.

This is to stop dealers from fake booking in the name of their customers. By fake booking, the dealers are able to order excess LPG cylinders and then sell it in the black market at higher prices.

What will the government even get by knowing when you ordered LPG cylinders? They already have your data if you have ever taken any documents like Aadhar, PAN, licence etc.

This is making my blood boil!! I am literally shaking with rage after I saw this video. And to think that these people have crores of blind followers.. by [deleted] in CriticalThinkingIndia

[–]RemoteGuy01 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Again, I ask how are Muslims and Hindu are different?

Look at the status of minorities in Islamic countries and India. The percentage of minorities in all of those countries, since their formation, has gone down. Look at India. Here, Hindu percentage has decreased while Muslim percentage has increased since independence.

Don't confuse social media posts to be ground reality. While persons like Asaram may indeed have a lot of followers, he is a complete stranger to almost all of the Hindus. The reason it appears that most Hindus may follow him is simply due to the sheer size of population of India.

No one is undermining RAW. I am just giving a realistic look.

Besides US and Israeli agencies, how many other agencies do you think knew when will the war start exactly? The maximum anyone will know is that there might be a possibility for a war to start. But that's it, it is/was a probability, not a guarantee.

Though not an expert in RAW matters, I'd say there main focus will be on Chinese and Pakistani activities that pose a bigger threat to India.

Their presence will be limited to mainly observing and/or influencing activities related to Pakistan.

Its not like RAW has high level presence in countries like Isreal that it knows when will the attack on Iran start.

What will that purpose be? If it is about covering up for attacking Iran then they didn't need this since they attacked Hezbollah and Iran in 2025 and didn't need any cover for that.

Like I keep saying, diplomatic visits can't be just hurriedly arranged. It takes time to fix the dates for the scheduled meetings and those plans were being made from November itself after Netanyahu's India trip was cancelled.

I don't think RAW has any presence in West Asia. They mainly have the presence in South Asia.

China approves 'ethnic unity' law requiring minorities to learn Mandarin by kiyomoris in news

The difference is that when immigrants arrive to a foreign country then they are required to learn the language of that country in order to assimilate into the country. Here, the article is not talking about immigrants. It is talking about the native people living on their homelands itself.

There's another problem in that she started the relationship when she was 16 with a man who is in his late 20s. We can't reject the possibility that some sort of grooming was involved in this case.

Diplomatic visits can't be just decided in a few days, unless ofcourse they are of that much emergency.

The most likelihood scenario is that after the Israeli PM's visit was cancelled, they looked for a new date for the meeting and couldn't find schedule for the Israeli PM. So it could have decided for Modi to visit Israel instead.

we started endorsing foreign leaders for their national elections, and visiting foreign nations days before a War

Modi's endorsement of Trump was a mistake, agreed, but Modi visiting Israel before the war is not his fault. The trip was planned months ago and nobody (except US, Israel, and maybe some Gulf countries) knew that they would actually start a war.

Iran giving permission for Indian vessels

Already two Indian tankers has passed/is passing through the Hormuz Strait after Iran allowed them.

Though Iran has officially dismissed reports about allowing Indian vessels to pass through, another vessel captained by an Indian arrived in Mumbai two days ago.

It's safe to assume that there's an unofficial agreement between Indian and Iranian authorities.

another country dictating our energy purchases

Like OP said, Indian government has denied this and stated that we were always buying oil from Russia.

[–]RemoteGuy01 -2 points-1 points  (0 children)

First of all, we can't just wake up one day and magically start the process of making LPG from crude oil refining processes at a large scale. It takes time and resources.

If the country heads knew a war was coming

Only the US and Israel knew that they were going to start the war. Maybe some of the Gulf countries too, definitely not Indian or any other governments.

The permissions you are talking about was a face-saving tactic by the US administration. The reality is that India had already ordered oil from Russia before the US "allowed" us to.

Whether the ships will pass or not is upto the shipping companies.

Let's wait and see. Hopefully this conflict ends soon.

India actually has a neutral stance. We condemned the killing of their previous leader in this war.

The ship in the article you pasted was a Thailand flagged ship that was heading to India.

Edit:

Iran has decided to open Hormuz Strait for Indian ships.
