My 11-year-old son is heartbroken because @chesscom closed his account by mistake, and your broken system is hiding behind a wall of technical failures. As a premium Diamond Member paid through Dec 2026 (₹1,899/yr), I expect better. Your support bot "Chessica" verified my email twice (Codes: 460556, 262379) and promised a membership transfer, but no emails ever arrived. Now your support inbox bounces, the help widget "refuses to connect", and the official appeal page is a 404 error! Stop locking out paying kids through broken infrastructure. I have the official Apple receipt (.eml) and chat logs ready. Act like a professional company, stop the silent treatment, and have a human DM me to reactivate his account today. @ChesscomSupport #ChessSupport #CustomerServiceFail. #ChessSupport #Needsupport #unfair #unhappy #gothamchess

My car mileage used to be 17.7 kmpl. Now, the last 5-month average has crashed to 12.5 kmpl. This is how E20 fuel is silently damaging vehicle efficiency. If this is the impact already, E25 and E30 could be even worse. Consumers are paying more and getting less.

5-year summary of India's ethanol fuel policy:
✅ E20 forced on 234M vehicles with no notice
✅ Mileage dropped, engines damaged, PIL dismissed ✅ BIS quietly notified E25–E30 standards
✅ E85 launched with 50 pumps and no car price
✅ E100 floated with ₹50K–₹1L upgrade cost
✅ PMO adviser says slow down
❌ Consumer ever consulted.
What is this? @HardeepSPuri @nitin_gadkari @PetroleumMin

🚨 FASTag has a MASSIVE security loophole & nobody is talking about it.
Today, literally anyone with access to your car & RC can get a NEW FASTag issued on your vehicle in THEIR name & mobile number.
No OTP.
No owner authorization.
No consent from the actual vehicle owner.
The moment that happens?
Your existing FASTag gets blacklisted/deactivated instantly under the “One Vehicle One FASTag” policy.
That’s exactly what happened to me.
I’m currently transporting my car from Mumbai to Delhi & handed over the vehicle to the transporter’s driver on Saturday.
He casually asked me if there was balance in the FASTag.
Next morning, I received a message from ICICI saying a new FASTag had been activated on my vehicle & my existing FASTag would be deactivated.
Within minutes, it was blacklisted/deactivated.
Honestly, God knows what the plan even was.
Maybe he thought the balance would transfer.
Maybe he wanted to misuse it during transit.
Maybe something worse.
The scary part?
The system ALLOWED this without a single authorization from the actual vehicle owner.
The NETC FASTag portal was down the entire day.
After 4 hours of calls, ICICI finally told me the new FASTag was issued via Airtel Payments Bank.
Later, I checked the Airtel Thanks app & guess what?
The FASTag had been registered by the SAME driver who took the car.
This is where things become ridiculous.
Airtel Payments Bank support told me THEY cannot close the FASTag unless the person who activated it calls them personally.
Read that again.
The actual vehicle owner has ZERO control over the FASTag -
but the person who fraudulently activated it does.
The NHAI helpline at 1033 was equally useless.
No emergency block.
No fraud handling.
No owner protection mechanism.
So if someone activates a FASTag on your car, you’re basically stranded.
How is this acceptable infrastructure for something linked to a vehicle owner’s identity & movement?
This is no longer just a scam.
It’s a massive security vulnerability in the FASTag ecosystem.
NPCI/NETC urgently needs mandatory owner authorization.
At the very least, mandate OTP verification from the registered vehicle owner before ANY FASTag change is approved.
This needs immediate attention, @NPCI_NPCI @FASTag_NETC.
Pathetic support, zero accountability, and absolutely no protection for the actual vehicle owner while someone else fraudulently took control of the FASTag.
That should never be possible, @ICICIBank @airtelbank.

Hi @ChesscomSupport, my 11yo son's Diamond account (grpl@outlook.com) was closed. Your bot promised a membership transfer and verified my email (Codes: 460556, 262379) on April 25 & 30, but no emails arrived. Now your support site is giving 'Refused to Connect' and '404' errors. I have the Apple receipt and chat logs ready. Please help us! #ChessSupport

I completely disagree with you on this. If the government actually cared about the youth, they should’ve put “Net-worth”/“minimum capital requirement” criteria for trading F&O. You cannot make it accessible to all, tax the he’ll out of it and cover it up saying we’re protecting the youth! That’s just hypocrisy tbh.
For 10% of those who actually make money, it hurts the margins!

I demand a law in India:
Any politician whose children study abroad and hold foreign citizenship should be disqualified from contesting elections.
Only those should contest whose children live in India and hold only Indian citizenship.
Who agrees with me?
Repost if you do.

What a beautiful Sunday morning, all thanks to J. K. Shah sir for giving me the opportunity to donate groceries to 1,000 needy people in Andheri, Mumbai. The total cost of all groceries must be around Rs. 16-18 Lakhs easily.
The smile I could see on the faces whenever a packet of oil was put in their bags, was just priceless.
The most touching moment was when a mom came with her daughter, who was physically challenged, and when she saw the entire month's groceries given to her, she literally was into tears.
Today, I realized the importance and luxury of having food whenever we want. We order food whenever we are hungry, or eat our meals at a time that we want. However, there are millions of people out there who don't even have the money to buy 1 meal for themselves. And I think it is our responsibility to do whatever possible we can from our end, to donate or help people, be it as small as possible.
Kudos to J. K. Shah sir for doing this - an initiative that started with helping families of their office help, slowly converted to a big initiative helping ~1,000 families with their groceries for lifetime.
Every month, I try to set aside 10% of my monthly income to give it for charity, and give it to my mom who helps with education for underprivileged kids in Nashik. The reason of sharing this publicly is just to inspire someone who can start helping the needy ones around them, at whatever scale possible.
Numbers don't matter, intentions do! :)
As long as you have the right intention, numbers will follow automatically at scale later on!

₹53,000 crore - whooping STT collected last year from markets
STT was meant to remove capital gains....but now it is double taxation....!!
This is unnecessary burden on investors...
Either remove LTCG or remove STT....can't have both..
Retweet if you agree..

You have put into words what I have been thinking. Such stupid behaviour by a single person has no parlance since world war 2. Clearly a result of short term thinking.

I have been a keen follower of geopolitics over the last 3-4 decades.
Never have I seen such a disruption. Such authoritarian, brazen, nihilistic, bigoted, incendiary, vengeful, anarchic and chaotic behaviour is something which I have never seen from someone who is arguably the most powerful person on the planet.
With great power comes great responsibility. Which is completely missing.
This is going to affect the lives of billions on the planet.
This will hasten the fall of the superpower.
The world would be happy to fast forward to 2028 end.

After paying so many taxes,
We have 2 send our kids 2 private schools.
We have to go to private hospitals.
God forbid if you lose your job there’s no real safety net to cover even basic living expenses.
We pay first-world taxes, but receive third-world services.
