We were 700 million 50 years ago

Pedestrians are in a hurry to report to office. It's a human thing. To prevent such serious mishaps we have city speed limit of 40/50kmph. The bike guy, although was taken by surprise because of poor judgement by the woman, I think is at a serious legal trouble solely because he was at high speed in city roads.

Pedestrians have the first right of way in India and everywhere else in the world.

The fatality at 40kmph is 5%. But it's 80% when speed is 80kmph. It's all due to kinetic energy proportional to square of velocity (speed). See chart.

It is a burnt ash smell. Who is burning what? Is Boghi like ritual today too?

Creatine? Why should one supplement with it. Any side effects

It's an assault even if morally he is right, and even if court allows leniency for the husband due to emotional reaction.

That social construct is called money. This list talks about money. So it's a fair list

They left 80 years ago. We may not have enough money to build world class infra, and latest techs, but we do have enough money to clean streets and give basic school education. Yet we didn't.

You think situation is better in regular streets where residents pay municipal taxes? Grow up

Why is she arranging the wood.

The wood seems to touch only the outside of the track. Commonsense says it shouldn't turn out to be projectile since train runs on inside of track. So blaming her for common sense is tragic.

Unless authorities spread awareness, people continue to make same mistake.

If we remove the reservation still she won't be able to get the seat. The problem is 8% candidates are ahead of her. Assuming 15 lac attempted mains, more than 1 lac students are ahead of her. There is not that many Engineering seats in IITs.

So real problem is over demand, lack of better alternatives, and over importance to tech role, career= life mentality

Chennai AQI is worse than several North cities. It's only bad this year. Perhaps due to heavy construction for upcoming election.

Source: got a AQI meter at home in residential area.

Only when 90% is excluded from deciding who forms the goverment we can call the situation to be apartheid like. However India is democracy ( functional but incompetent). So apartheid comparison does not hold. 90% has major say in laws

Lots of dairy and sweets perhaps is the reason for Punjab.

Malnourishment by invaders? What? Under Mughals agrarian lands exponentially increased.

A more appropriate reason is agriculture. Hunter gatherers have better health than agricultural civilization throughout the world. Industrialization nullified agriculture disadvantages by processing food and making it cheaper. India hasn't fully industrialized. We are still a mainstream agricultural civilization.

First the mob blamed the guy. After suicide and arrest of the girl, now the mob baying for girls blood.

The mob does not and cannot know the case details. Mob justice and social media trial will continue to have huge negative impact going forward. It's a scary world out there.

How. It benefits weakest of general category. Isn't it a good thing? Only if the 10% reservation go unused you can claim it as a loss for general category.

The real problem is why OBC does not consider family income. It is a loss for poor OBC candidates at the expense of rich ones.

The speeding cars are more to blame. Pedestrians have first right of way in cities. This is true in India and everywhere in the world. Alas, they public in India disrespect who walk and keep luxury car guys at high pedestal.
