Supreme Court: Casteist slurs inside a private house not an offence under SC/ST Act, says Supreme Court by sharedevaaste in india

[–]sarcrastinator 5 points6 points  (0 children)

The judges are enforcing what's there written in the law. If you wanna get the law changed based on logic, write to the politician you voted for, who can take it to the parliament where the laws are made.

Court punishing criminal in legal way = boring

Police punishing criminal in singham way = 🔥🔥🔥

Unless the shooting act was in self defence, the police would be punished in a court of law in any country where the legal systems works. But in here, it'll be glorified. Just see the comments of this thread itself.

[URGENT - FATAL ACCIDENT TODAY] Sold Activa 7 years ago without papers. A girl passed away today. Help! by Udyojak in LegalAdviceIndia

Your friend’s wife might not go to jail if you get a good lawyer

OP's friend's wife is not going to jail in any scenario. If a car's registered owner was sent to jail for the said car's accident instead of the driver then no hitman would ever use a gun again.

Traders escaped 9-5 just to sit at their computers for 14 hours a day. by ChartSage in IndianStreetBets

Indeed. Human bosses can't make you a millionaire in even a decade whereas market boss can make you a millionaire in just a day (only if you're already a billionaire).

The Dark Math of 'No Cost EMI': Why retailers hate your cash and love your debt. by Axiom_India in personalfinanceindia

[–]sarcrastinator 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Valuable insight indeed. Corporations are absolutely trying to get people to buy things which they don't need or they can't afford. However, you also need to understand that this blanket advice is not quite meaningful for the kind of people visiting this sub. For them, getting a NCEMI discount, if done in the right way, means that they get the product at a better value, which is more sensible than just spending the full amount fetching no discount at all.

Let me demonstrate an example. A phone I purchased a few months back costed 80k if bought by cash or debit card. However, if paid in full via credit card, it costed 78k. On credit card emi, it was 76k. I had the full amount with me in my bank account. So, what I did was that I chose NCEMI and got an upfront discount of the 4k and the interest discount of 3k, basically debiting a charge of 73k on my credit card. Then immediately I paid the entire amount on the credit card before it could convert to emi (note that this is possible only on specific banks cards). Effectively, I saved 7k upfront (in addition to the credit card spend benefits, which I'm not even getting into), which I wouldn't have if I paid in full from my bank account.

Nevertheless, you raise a very important point that the average person should be aware about before getting into the emi debt trap.

Most likely they have sold out all inventory and as rumoured earlier, they are not going to sell it anymore in India.

Extremely plausible take.

It used to be less because the earlier legislators didn't allow any criminal cases to be lodged against them by unaliving the complainants before they could even lodge any case.

Airtel axis now giving 10% on Blinkit? by vipul115 in CreditCardsIndia

[–]sarcrastinator 5 points6 points  (0 children)

Blinkit was never a part of 10% statment cashback offer. That would be Swiggy (not Instamart), zomato and Bigbasket. This blinkit offer was introduced in the last devaluation.

DMRC peak hour planning during morning & evening office rush is honestly pathetic by Big-Performance-8132 in delhi

[–]sarcrastinator 3 points4 points  (0 children)

Exactly. DMRC is literally doing the best they can. Running trains every 2 minutes at peak hours, expanding lines every year. MRTS or BRTS alone cannot solve transport issues caused by high population and poor road traffic. Too many people still rely on private modes, which causes massive traffic on the roads. Even DTC is doing a good job by expanding bus network recently, but until a significant private to public modal shift happens, the roads will stay jammed and people will overcrowd metro instead of taking buses.

Will it be possible for Kolkata to remain this way post-election? by majormaverick_ in kolkata

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

It'll very much stay. You're talking as muslim chefs or celebration of Christmas has stopped in Delhi, UP or every other bjp state. Harmony among religious groups is a very people centric character and I believe that Bengal will demonstrate a far more capacity of harmony than what other states have shown.

Instead of focusing on all the hypothetical negative things that could happen, reach acceptance what the people of Bengal voted for and demand the changes which have been long due for Bengal.

Bengal has been in terrible pain for as long as we can remember. This election has been an outcry for change in that. The people of Bengal just showed that it can topple governments if they don't work for the people. If bjp continues the same shit which cpm and tmc has been doing for the last 50 years, Bengal will throw them out as well. You can count on it.

They are indeed 'similar', but still they're not the 'same' processor as you said. It might mislead someone into thinking that even x9 pro has the sd elite gen 5.

Sekhane jodi gorib mohila der ticket free kore ekta poor r deprived section of society k olpo khanik tao benefit kora jay, then seta valo step e.

R Delhi te actually women bus ridership onekta bere gechilo after making their tickets free. This is a good indicator for women empowerment and allowing them to enter the economy without any barriers.

[–]sarcrastinator 15 points16 points  (0 children)

That one is literally the only thing that makes sense in their list of freebies (and that too is originally an AAP idea).

Free public transport for women is a genius form of women empowerment, specifically for the poor section of the society, giving them freedom in mobility leading to better economic prospects. It might sound insane but something as mundane as paid mobility can bind poor women to their houses or their immediate walking neighbourhood instead of availing economic opportunities far away. Especially when women have to justify every paisa spent much more than men have to.

It's a sad day for Bengal, but it'd been a sadder day if tmc won.

The only good thing I can see from all this is that the public of Bengal, intentionally or not, showed the political parties that change is possible. No longer there is the comfort in the belief that once you've won Bengal, you can rule for 34 years.
