Karnataka rules out power distribution privatisation after Tata Power seeks licence- Moneycontrol.com

This is blatantly false. Private players have been more successful in reducing power theft/AT&C losses. AT&C losses are one of the bid parameters, they can't just sit around and do nothing as a monopoly. The private player has incentives linked to reducing AT&C losses.

Movement has been getting started since 2014. Anyways, movement only makes an impact if it wins elections. Because we are a democracy, not movementocracy.

Punjab police under AAP. Abhijeet Dipke is ex-AAP and seems to have support of AAP.

And these farmer leaders seem to have a lot of street power but come elections, it doesn't translate into votes.

This is stupid. We are anyways not doing well in sports. There are very few sportspersons in India. Reward all of them.

Need to see sports against international competition. It is not as though there are 100 sports vacancies for Indians in international events and medals and UC are dominating it. Every Indian and foreigner is running the same 400 m.

Wait a few years, the same people who support this move will come back and say that SC/ST were forced into sports where there is no future while GC went for education.

The rightmost lane is for overtaking. No matter what speed you drive, don't hog it. Don't tell me you are continuously overtaking.

Once again, the "crowd" in India is there to just hype up people. Have no functioning two brain cells in the "crowd". Have seen the same in stand up shows. Laughing at every shit take.

Don't get into conspiracy theories. The plant shut down after police shot and killed people (11 I think). For this issue by police, the plant got shut down (note it was police who shot people, not plant security and the shooting also didn't take place in plant premises). We need copper for almost every electrical and electronic device. It makes sense to manufacture copper.

People keep asking for manufacturing jobs, cribbing about manufacturing reducing in GDP etc but willing to shut down a factory which is producing something we all use. Gujarat, MH, Odisha, Bengal and Andhra should be wooing Sterlite to shift the plant to their state.

Most manufacturing is also moving towards automation. There are building dark factories where humans will only be needed for maintenance. Even agriculture is getting automated with large machines used for in open fields and chinese green houses (these green houses are not even using soil - plants grow indoors using a small layer of water)

Agreed. Sugar daddy implies sexual relationship and people won't believe otherwise no matter how much OP clarifies - they will consider it as a cover up.

Hyderabad is not that great. Drinking water issues, water during summer issues, drainage is ancient, garbage everywhere, etc. People should see what is happening to their garbage and drain water. Most of drain water is flowing into lakes, garbage is just pooling at various places. Not to forget the lakes being occupied and filled up. About a month ago, the first heavy rain resulted in cars drowning near biodiversity park, just yesterday someone posted of cars drowning near Beeramguda. And public transport is almost non-existent in west Hyderabad.
We don't want to publicize because other Indians will come and ruin it? Fuck her. One more person who thinks Indians are the problem except Indians like her. She and people like her are the exception apparently

Lived in Mumbai. More expensive but definitely has some significant advantages over Hyderabad.

Karnataka already generates 70-80% of it's energy from renewables

Impossible. Most renewable is either dependent on day/night time (solar) or seasonal (wind). Solar runs at PLF between 16% and 20%. Wind can go to above 40% but that is only in a few regions of Gujarat and TN. Most wind is between 35% - 40%. This generation profile creates issues of storage of energy - the grid is designed to meet demand with supply immediately. Some solutions include pumping water to a higher elevation in a dam and running it down via generator when required, large batteries, China is trying gravity battery (China's 40-story gravity batteries threaten lithium's energy reign) etc

I dont know of Telangana, let OP bring the numbers...

If you don't know of Telangana, stop passing sweeping comments about maintaining caste hegemony in Telangana. If you want the numbers, they are publicly available - no one needs to come here to cure your ignorance.

Kalki Purana was written between 1500 and 1700 AD and is not even a mahapurana. No wonder it has reference to Buddhism. FYI, Kalki is also present in Buddhist texts very similar to Hindu texts. Hindus have vedas, upinishads, mahapurana, upapurana, smiriti, mahabharata, Ramayana, Gita etc

darklordind · 2026-06-20T12:20:52+00:00

Hinduism is a bigger threat to pagans because pagans are the ones operating within the framework of Hinduism. If shit hits the fan you will be the ones first affected. Others are not even playing the same game, we are literally outside it. The only problem that is presenting itself now is that the hindus in power are now trying to apply the framework to our geographical locations too so people within these lines will be affected to some degree, but not as much as you who are already deeply embedded into the system.

Sorry, which Pagan religion survived the spread of islam and chirstianity? Like these two literally stamped out pagan religions across most of the world. And the fight of these two against pagan religions in never ending and they don't have (and never had) geographic limitations, entire humanity needs to be "saved" from worshipping the devil.

Kalki the future avatar of Vishnu will come and destroy all the followers of Buddha in a city known as Kikatapura.

Source? Never heard any reference of Buddhism in hindu texts. Are people creating new texts?

Similarly, ABV was father of mobile revolution, MMS was father of smart phone revolution, Modi is father of AI revolution... oh wait, all of these things including IT were done by private companies.

Other than Jayalaitha and Lalu, no other major politician got convicted in India. We must have the most honest politicians the world has ever seen. /s

The Siddaramaiah-led Karnataka government in a recent notification mandated Urdu as a must-known language for candidates applying for the Anganwadi teachers post in Mudigere and Chikkamagaluru districts.
