"My wife and I had retired from Punjab National Bank. Unfortunately, she passed away 10 years ago. We had planned to travel the world using our PF and savings, but that dream remained unfulfilled. After her death, I no longer felt like travelling anywhere. I decided to donate half of the money we had saved for our dream journey to Indian Army so I donated Rs 25 lakh to Indian Army...Perhaps this will give me the same happiness that travelling with my wife would have given me..." ~ Shrikant Sahasrabuddhe.

This guy has exposed a trick of IndiGo Airlines. He had a flight to Pune at 6:00 AM. He reached the airport on time, but his web check-in wasn't working. At the counter, he was told that web check-in had to be completed at least 24 hours before departure. By then, the flight was full. Now his question is: if the number of tickets sold is equal to the number of seats available on the flight, how did someone else get his seat? Are airlines selling more tickets than the number of seats available? His second question is: if someone books a ticket just 4тАУ5 hours before departure due to an emergency, how can they possibly complete web check-in 24 hours in advance? Airlines can easily say they'll move passengers to another flight, but the passenger is the one who suffers тАФ through lost time, mental stress, missed commitments, and urgent meetings.

INDIAN LIVES MATTER.3 Indian ships have been attacked by the Americans and 3 innocent unarmed Indians murdered. Video clips show the ship was static. No transcripts of communications between ship and US Navy have been provided. 90% of Iran,s oil goes to China. Reportedly over 100 Chinese ships have Jumped this blockade. Not one Chinese or Russian ship has been struck. Just because India has gone out of its way to be friendly with US, it has responded by attacking our ships and murdering our sailors. Kissinger had rightly said- it is dangerous to be an enemy of US but it is FATAL to be a friend.There is a school of thought that IS LEAST CONCERNED WITH THE DEATH OF POOR INDIANS. Their deaths they feel should not poop the party in Europe G7.So the initial response was to shrug it off and make a pro-forma protest without Calling the press. It was only when there was outrage in the Indian public did we gather the courage to protest loud and clear. Pak had made it a habit to kill unarmed Indians till we pushed back. Now the Americans are ushering in a new era of colonialism and gun boat diplomacy. There are those in India who would like to compete with Mulla Munir in licking Trumps shoes. Was 250 years of Colonization not enough? Can we kindly outgrow this slavish mentality and behave with the gravitas of a 10,000 years old civilizational state?Just see how China treated Trump.

Deeply shocking to read this official US statement, which contains absolutely no expression of regret or condolence for the loss of innocent Indian lives. How can a тАЬfriendтАЭ and strategic partner be so deeply insensitive? Why couldnтАЩt a non-compliant commercial vessel have been stopped using other, non-lethal means? Is it not possible to disable a ship's propulsion or steering without firing missiles targeted to kill civilian crew members? Practically every merchant ship navigating these crucial waters has Indian crew on board. Are they all considered fair game for US missiles now? This approach is unacceptable and I hope @DrSJaishankar had said so to @marcorubio.

I agree with what Shri GD Bakshi says here ЁЯСЗ I am too upset with these killing of Indians by the US forces and our attitude towards these murders - US ne maar diya, hum kya karen!!!
GD BAKSHI EXPOSES DOORMAT DIPLOMACY ЁЯФе We soldiers are full of anger. INDIAN LIVES MATTER. America says it didnтАЩt know Indians were onboard? DonтАЩt lie. Every ship has AIS. One click tells you the flag, call sign, captain and crew. Did America attack any Russian ship? Any Chinese ship? No. Because they know the reaction. If you want to act like a doormat, people will treat you like a doormat.

US is not a friend of India. It is worse than an enemy at this point. While pretending to be a friend, it is taking actions even enemies will not take.

If we don't act against killing of our citizens by US misslies, this will now be the bar. 3-4 Indians killed - no problem! We should learn from the Americans how to value (and demonstrate) the lives of its citizens. Our inaction thus far isn't sign of a self-respecting nation

Ambulance stuck in Mussoorie Traffic Jam Exposes Management Flaws: What kind of tourism is this where we are collectively bringing immense pain and torture to others? Imagine the plight of the family that would have been carrying the hapless patient in a stuck ambulance in Mussoorie. I am aware that this news counts for nothing in the way we govern, conduct our businesses & travel; yet it's vital to speak out against such incidents & draw everyone's attention to what's happening around us. If any possible ideas or solutions, please do share. PS : I hope this reaches the family of the patient and that she/he is better now. Our best wishes for speedy recovery #Mussoorie #Dehradun #Uttarakhand
