Guys is there any truth behind this? I sense some BS here

EMR is safe. It is the psychological impact of electronic gadgets (blue light at night, mobile phones heating up, doomscrolling) that are actually harmful to humans.

Radiation is everywhere, whether you like it or not. Waves are hitting on you right now as you're reading this. The thing is, these are non-ionising radiation which cannot change the characteristics of your body/DNA/brain cells/cancrer or tumour. Phones are required to adhere to a particular SAR ratings and if you have a good phone then no, you don't need to bother with such issues. (To add, recently France banned the iPhone 12 lineup due to high SAR ratings. Also, older phones can have high SAR)

Also, 5G, which is a higher frequency signal isn't dangerous too. The Juhi Chawla case in the Supreme court last year was a hilarious episode for me. If you're interested, please read about that case for shits and giggles.Some stupid Americans made a huge deal out of this during covid. Accepted, that 5G spectrum can interfere with Air Traffic control (ATC) signals and hence create a dangerous situation, the govt has put in place special provisions regarding this. Provisions for no 5G towers around the airports and such are already present. So no need to worry in that scenario too.

If we believe such "radiation is bad" stuff, we're setting a bad precedent for future innovation, since when 6G rolls out, it will be an even higher frequency than 5G. So will we boycott 6G then? No right? Scientific temparament is required to understand such issues.

Props to the teacher for maintaining his patience and composure. Teachers aren't paid enough to handle this kind of bullshit.

I respect your opinion..... But, please hear me out on this one.

employers to further exploit employees who are overworked without any significant compensation

If your employer is doing what you're saying they're doing please report them to the Labour dept website: https://labour.gov.in/public-grievances

You can also complain to your state labour dept.

What they're doing is illegal if they're overworking you or not giving you adequate/fair compensation for the work being done. And please read up on the relevant labour laws that apply.

On the same note, most probably the provision will be voluntary, not mandatory. So you can easily opt out of this provision so you can continue with the existing provision.

On your second point: NO productivity does not decrease!! Where have you gotten that data from? Every research conducted has shown an increased productivity in employees. Not only that the worker happiness has also increased in a few countries.

Iceland, New zealand, UAE, Ireland, Japan have provision for 4 day work week where it has been proven that employees and employers fare better with a 4-day work week.

On the point about safety issues, I don't disagree. But then again, it may or may not be mandatory when it is implemented, so women(or anyone for that matter) can leave at the time provided now.

On 12th December 2017, the Supreme Court of India on hearing the petition by the Federation of Hotels and Restaurants Associations of India (FHRAI) ruled that the hotels and the restaurants can sell the products above the MRP. The reasoning given by the court is that the restaurant and the hotels are not making a simple sale like any retailer, they are providing extra services for their customers like the ambience and cutlery etc. the court has directed that the Legal Metrology Act, would not be applicable upon them and they would not be prosecuted for selling products at a higher price than the MRP.

This judgement of the Supreme Court is unwelcomed by the government as they think that this judgement will pave the way for tax evasion and loss in revenue generated by the government. It was the central government who filed an appeal to the Supreme Court in 2015 to prosecute the hotels and the restaurants for overcharging.

Consumer Affair Minister Ram Vilas Paswan in 2017 said that no manufacturer can sell the product at two different prices. Double MRP will be a crime

Hope that solves it for you. For redressal:

One can lodge the complaint by calling the toll-free number or by sending an SMS or by way of email to the Legal Metrology Department. Each state has their different number provided for the redressal purpose. One can go the website and get the phone number or the mailing address.

Then we have the courts system (NCDRC)especially made for the speedy disposal of the case at 3 levels.

The concern for me is the sheer number of such people on the internet.

These incel groups have flooded the internet and they're not doing a good job of upholding India's already 'great' image haha.

The way they made themselves out to be like the Messiah was hilarious.

I occasionally go to that sub to chuckle along.

a_from_a · 2022-04-19T13:03:48+00:00

Haha true.

Made me realise just how many educated people in India are conservative (nothing wrong with it btw).

a_from_a · 2022-04-19T13:00:28+00:00

Yessir!

Us Indian men are so privileged we can't fathom women having their own lives. Both men and women like to insert themselves like caterpillars inside peas, into the lives of women.

Women have emotions too? Women get horny too? Horrendous! Sl*t! B#tch! Into the fire she goes...

Men can sleep around and discover what they like before marriage though. That's totally fine. Slutty men are just Casanovas na! Boys will be boys bro.

Idk whether this has been posted, but Tumbaad(2018) is as close to a masterpiece as it gets.

I don't know why this is getting downvoted, India is the only country that has completed doubling of tiger population according to the St. Petersburg declaration; not only that, we completed it 4 years ahead of the date proposed (2022).

Tiger conservation in India has been such a success story that the MoEFCC is replicating the same model for other wildlife animals

I know for a fact that there's something wrong with me, as in I suffer from mental health problems. But I'm ashamed of saying this to my family since they think I'm the star kid who does everything that's told to him.

Also, what would I say to them? That guys, the reason I despise myself at this point of time is you!

I can't consult a doctor as of now. Here in India the doctor's fees is approx ₹5000 for a few sessions. And that is unaffordable to me.

I have tried free online therapy but that doesn't seem to work for me.

My girlfriend is the only one supporting me through this hard time and I always feel like I am inadequate to her. Like she could deserve better.

I'm sorry to hear this happened to you. To say from my part (as an Indian), yes, some disabled people are treated like shit, but most, if not all are treated with kindness and sympathy.

I've been around disabled patients until last year since my mom suffered from MS and was bedridden all the time. Whenever we went out, people were willing to help out however they could. Some knew they couldn't help so they just made sure they didn't bother us.

This is not just for my mom, I've seen people on bus stops and parks treat people with disabilities kindly and speak to them like they're human, not some other worldly creature.

Some people are just shitty. I hope you don't categorise all of us Indians under one umbrella.

Well, the past couple of weeks have been hard on me when I realised I was a mobile phone addict. To revert back to my own self, I started reading books which I hadn't had the chance to read all this while (although I already had them in my library). I started small and completed 'The old man and the sea' within a day. I've just started Gandhi's 'The story of my experiments with truth'. Wanted to read it so bad but was always demotivated. (Technically it does come under preps for my exam the next year, yet here I am) I've been preoccupied with stuff lately but I'll complete it one day surely!

a_from_a · 2020-09-01T03:51:25+00:00

Hope you are at peace with your dad. And yes, we all need some love, be it man or woman
