The only solution is the judicial reforms.
All this can be fixed if courts start handing verdicts in 3 months.
The entire Indian system is geared towards *prevention*.
*Prevent* all the bad things from happening, because recourse to cure is so poor. Why is there no cure? Courts and police are total failures - for instance, if somebody commits a financial fraud, it can take decades to prosecute them. Hence prevent the fraud - throw multiple OTPs at the user for a Rs 5000 fund transfer. Banks make you do KYC like fanatics because they are trying to *prevent* the last bad actor from getting away - if millions are to be tortured for it, so be it.
This prevention-first mindset throws sand in the wheels for everything. It makes life hell for consumers and small businesses.
Just imagine what the accumulated cost is of preventing all the bad things from happening - surely it shaves off many basis points from GDP growth when you stack up all of it.
And yet the cheats, criminals, troublemakers and frauds all find ways to do what they do anyway. Those who are just trying to run their business and get through life are burdened with this mountain of compliance and paperwork. None of this moves babus and ministers - they live in a parallel reality where somebody else works (at taxpayer expense of course) to remove these frictions from their existence.
Then they blithely bark at poor consumers and business operators: “ek form hi to hai, bhar do”. But of course it is never one form - every leech in the system demands a form and a submission. Stacked up, it goes into hundreds of pages of documents and dozens of tasks.
The associated parasite lobby of lawyers, consultants, company secretaries and chartered accountants makes merry. They lobby the government for more regulations and offer compliance services to hapless people. In exchange, they place the government elite’s nepo kids in jobs.
This parasite gang has a field day because more documents means more business for them. They are joined by economists and intellectuals, who want to join the leeching and bloodsucking bacchanalia. This intellectual cabal wants to snag a coveted role in the “world’s best” prize winner central bank or other sarkaari gig.
Productivity dies in India, businesses slow down and overall it is a slow-motion economic disaster. In isolation we feel happy to have 6-7% economic growth. Decades go on then somebody says - oh, how did Singapore, Vietnam and China do so well? We look at the delta and feel awkward. We justify it saying “we have democracy”. The super-cabal didn’t just prevent accidents or disasters like they claimed - they killed off and prevented growth and progress with it. Mega accidents and disasters happened anyway.
Enjoy the democracy. Praise the cockroaches and jholachhaps. Celebrate the thugs, parasites, leeches and bureaucrat-goons all around you.
Mera Bharat Mahaan!
😂😂 couldn't even last for 1 hr.
Pakistan again allowed Taiwanese flights over Pakistan airspace.
They begged taiwan for money.
Pakistan has denied carriers from Taiwan access to its airspace in support of Beijing’s One-China policy, the first move of its kind by any country. Full story: bloom.bg/4e697uV

North and South Korea are heading into a fresh border standoff.
The trigger: a September 21 landmine explosion in the DMZ injured 3 South Korean soldiers. Seoul blamed mines planted by North Korean troops, and the UN Command said a mine laid across the military demarcation line violated the armistice. Pyongyang denies responsibility.
The escalation has since widened:
- UN showdown: North Korea accused Seoul of fabricating the incident to portray its border fortification work as a military incursion. Both sides have taken their accusations to the UN Security Council.
- Artillery near the border: On October 26, three North Korean vehicles identified by Yonhap as self-propelled 122-mm howitzers were visible near the frontier, their barrels pointed south. Reuters also observed North Korean troops working on fencing inside the DMZ.
- More military threats: Kim Yo-jong, Kim Jong-un’s sister, threatened to resume anti-South Korean propaganda loudspeaker broadcasts and warned of further escalation. Pyongyang has also threatened to deploy more tactical strike weapons near the border.
- Seoul pushes back: South Korea’s military leadership has ordered firm responses to provocations, while Seoul has proposed military talks to clarify the disputed border line and prevent accidental clashes.
The bigger picture: Since 2024, North Korea has intensified border fortifications with fences, tactical roads and landmines, while Kim Jong-un has abandoned the long-standing goal of peaceful reunification and described South Korea as a hostile state.
The immediate danger is not necessarily a planned war, but a border incident spiralling out of control when both militaries are on alert and communication remains strained.

Chinese are most petty people.
Can't even take a little joke.
Mao was a dictator and it's a fact.
🚨 𝗕𝗥𝗘𝗔𝗞𝗜𝗡𝗚: Laliga president Javier Tebas and Kylian Mbappe will fix a date to travel to China to hold a meeting and personally APOLOGIZE to the people of China for his comments regarding the DICTATOR meme.
"The Chinese are going all in to boycott anything related to Kylian Mbappe after what he said, including cutting Laliga and all sponsorship related to the player"
"Kylian Mbappe has apologized and so has Laliga president but, it's still not looking good for the league and the player so, they've decided to personally travel to China and fix things.
A man petitioned the Chinese government to complain about his grievances. Now, he claims he is being followed, watched outside his home, and even stopped from going out to buy groceries.
In Beijing, seeking answers from the government can reportedly mean becoming the person under surveillance.
He sarcastically suggested sending his 24-hour “guards” to protect the Diaoyu Islands.
