For those who don't know IAS and IPS refers to Indian administrative service and Indian Police Service which are the cream of the crop administrative services in tne country. People selected through a difficult exam called UPSC(which Indians hype up as the most difficult exam in the world but it really isn't).

As you'd, these people become celebs of sorts for merely clearing the exam and tend to have large amounts of social media followera. These two in particular(Rohini and Roopa) are very active on social media.

Indians here might remember Roopa as she was responsible for chasing Trueindology(Indian rightoid twitter personality) off of Twitter a while back.

So it seems like they're having a bit of a cat fight and one of them(Roopa) has released flirty pics (Rohini) sends senior officers. The latter has lodged an official complaint.

The tweet which broke the news on twitter.

Needless to say, Indians are not amused..

IAS is overrated exam, overrated post. Look at them cringe AF. Better to be cringe TikTok star than stooping at this level after cracking one of d toughest exam in the world.

"Pajiitaz will be Pajiitaz" imagine cracking one of the most difficult exams in the world to get one of the most prestigious & powerful roles in country to then stoop to this level of cheapness to remain relevant. Vishwaguru elites unlike West have no idea or will to keep decorum

Tbh, I'm sure westoid elites are plenty degenerate. The difference is competence.

Remember this when Injans tell you that their bureaucracy is inept because it's a 🇬🇧 legacy. You could get the brightest minds in the world and design the best bureaucracy the world has ever seen but as long as we fill it with people like this, it’ll remain sh1t.

I would like to share a whitepill here. If you want to wreck any institution of a public nature, include and empower women in it. This is THE hack.

I would have to congratulate the Babus that they are consistent when it comes to dragging themselves in the mud . A good chunk of these Babus are thugs and frauds . Let's hope for a change .

4-yr-old boy was killed today by stray dogs in Hyderabad. 21 deaths, over 2 lac dog bites in Kerala in 2022. What’s more effective? Castration of stray dogs or of dog activists?

Porinju: a 4-year-old killed by dogs is horrific. But dog activists are not your enemy. The Borgen Project advocates: Capture.Neuter. Vaccinate. Release. Should be possible to build a consensus around that idea.

No use, many have been preaching this for a long time. I feel that killing all stray dogs and neutering 'dog activists' is the only practical solution.

The article says that culling and euthanasia does not work https://borgenproject.org/poverty-and-methods-to-control-stray-dogs/ - it has very little impact on the stray dog population.

Killing all the strays doesn't work here's my article

Kill all mutts btw.

Every passing day I hate bruhmemes just a little more.

So you found out that arranged marriages is more about making the right investment and nothing about union of two people with compatibility and understanding.

This redditor understands that his wife must seek pleasure outside their marriage and is compatible with that.

well ugly and short and dark girls have it worse , so

Truly the misery of the femcel knows no ends

I have seen my own grandmother who is very dark skin discriminate against females who are dark . She would give more presents , money and scrutinize the females less who were fair and tall.

Based grandma

True. But they should at least bargain a little in the transaction, regarding the groom salary lol

My older sister is past her mid-30s and didn't marry because she didn't find someone earning "x" amount of what she makes. We come from very middle-class background, and she has a really good job. Her argument is that instead of marrying a broke middleclass dude and continuing the middleclass cycle, she rather not marry and just use her money for her life needs. Her argument is that if she goes with a middle-class dude, she will probably have to give her savings to him, do the household chores and end up frustrated. I tried explaining to her that a broke middle class dude might become something in the future, but she doesn't want to take chances. To each their own.

Or so she says

You can not simultaneously be looking for equality and looking at arranged marriages. Arranged marriages in India are the way patriarchy has organized relationships. It is not the case that these women and their parents live in an equal society and suddenly wake up one day thinking you know what, frick low income men. They do this with the expectation that their daughter will give up her job once the kid arrives etc etc, let’s do a business transaction that will allow us to brag to our neighbours.

Noooo they want rich husbands because of the PATRIARCHY otherwise they'd pick losers like me

What fricking coomer decided to approve a passage like that AHAHAHA

Addressing the Munich Security Conference on Thursday, Soros claimed the Hindenburg Research report accusing the Adani Group of stock manipulation and other charges would harm Prime Minister Narendra Modi politically. “Modi and business tycoon Adani are close allies and their fate is intertwined... Modi is silent on the subject, but he will have to answer questions from foreign investors and in parliament,” he claimed, adding, “I may be naive, but I expect a democratic revival in India.”

Addressing a press conference in New Delhi, Smriti Irani said, “The man who broke the Bank of England and is designated by a nation as an economic war criminal has now expressed his desire to break the Indian democracy. As you know George Soros an international entrepreneur who hedges bets against many countries has now declared his ill intentions to intervene in the democratic processes of India.”

“George Soros wants a government which is pliable to his needs and it is more than evident from his statements that he has pronounced funding of over $1 Bn particularly to target leaders like PM Modi is significant,” she said.

“Today as a citizen I call upon every individual and organization to denounce the intention of this individual (Soros) who seeks to demonize our democracy, weaken our democratic interests and bring an onslaught to the economy of India, all so that he can personally gain,” Irani said.

“Those who Mr. Soros finds the pliable need to know that India has defeated imperialistic designs before and shall do so again, those who support Mr. Soros need to know that democracy has prevailed in India and will continue to do so,” she added.

Congress general secretary in-charge of communication, Jairam Ramesh in a tweet said, “Whether the PM-linked Adani scam sparks a democratic revival in India depends entirely on the Congress, Opposition parties & our electoral process. It has NOTHING to do with George Soros.”

I love how the one uniting factor in Indian politics is when mayos try to nose in.

We weren't talking about your mother

You want to become my mother?

you have to be really cheap and disgusting to talk like this about other women

What about your i want to love 🥵

Akansha* could feel anxiety well up inside her as she sat opposite her date. So the 26-year-old began fidgeting with the cutlery on the table and avoiding eye contact.

But then her date leaned in and told her that it was okay to be anxious, and that she could steady herself and appear less nervous by clasping her hands under the table and taking a deep breath.

The person opposite her wasn't a real date, but a "dating surrogate" - someone hired to go on mock dates with her, observe her behaviour, and share tips and insights in real time to help her deal with anything preventing her from enjoying herself.

Akansha says she turned to a dating surrogate, a service offered by the Intimacy Curator - an online platform providing "dating, relationship and intimacy coaching services" - about three months ago.

It's among a bunch of firms and apps - such as Dating Accelerator andhaveyoumeturself - that have come up in India over the past few years, pointing to a shift in the way relationships are formed and perceived in the country. While the majority of Indians still opt for arranged marriages and pre-marital s*x is mostly a taboo subject, these companies are teaching their customers new ways to date and fall in love.

Their users - mostly people who live in big cities and follow global trends - vary in age and what they are looking for. Some, like Akansha, want to shed their inhibitions around dating, while others may be trying to relearn the rules around relationships.

People who sign up for The Intimacy Curator's dating surrogacy package - which can cost anywhere between 12,000 rupees ($145; £120) and 80,000 rupees - participate in various online sessions held by dating coaches. They explore questions including why they want to date and what they're looking for in prospective partners. Then they're assigned a dating surrogate who plans mock dates and coaches them.

"The experience helped me get comfortable with being on a date," says Akansha.

Akansha came out as queer a few years ago and says that while it was liberating, it also threw up problems in the dating arena. She found it hard to date women because while she came across many how-tos and dating guides for cisgender (non-transgender), heterosexual people, it was tough to find resources around dating etiquettes for queer people.

When she went on dates, she was confused by questions such as who should hold open the door or pull out a chair for the other person - chivalrous gestures conventionally performed by men.

"As a woman, I also knew how compliments made me feel objectified at times. But while I didn't want to be perceived as a creep, I also wanted to express my interest," she says.

Simran Mangharam, a dating coach, says "Gen Zers" such as Akansha are "more pragmatic in their approach to s*x, dating and relationships".

"They are choosing to date based on their needs and lifestyle choices, rather than following long-held Holy Grails of dating, like finding a life partner or entering monogamous relationships," she adds.

That partly explains why situationships - which lie somewhere between a committed relationship and a casual hook-up - were among last year's top Gen Z dating trends while ethical non-monogamy or multi-partner relationships have been on the rise.

Aili Seghetti, founder of the Intimacy Curator, is also one of the five dating surrogates it offers. To help Akansha become comfortable with dating women, Ms Seghetti went on three dates with her - to an art gallery, on an outdoor walk and for dinner.

On the dates, Ms Seghetti would give feedback to Akansha about her body language, share tips on how to manage anxiety, and grooming and styling advice.

"It's scary and awkward to ask a person if you can put your arm around them or kiss them, but the mock dates helped me get comfortable with having these conversations," says Akansha, adding that she has been on many successful dates since then.

But while some like Akansha find the swiftly-changing dating space exciting and inclusive, it can be a minefield for others, especially if they are returning to the dating game after a hiatus or have had a conservative upbringing and are now dating people with a different value system or relationship vocabulary.

Mumbai-based Rajeev*, 40, went on his last date in 2012. When he tried to re-enter the dating pool about a year ago, he was confronted with a range of things he had no idea about, from terms such as "ghosting" and "dry dating", to people stating their preferred pronouns or saying they wanted open relationships.

Rajeev says he had always found it difficult to connect with women. Having experienced childhood trauma and battled substance abuse, he struggled to trust people and talk about himself on dates. The changed world of dating added to his discomfort and made him feel lost.

But with the help of his surrogate date, Rajeev gradually learnt to ask women out, flirt and practise consensual physical intimacy. She also helped him find the best way to talk about his difficult past, identify and process his emotions and communicate them in a safe way.

Since the quest to find love could include rejection, Rajeev was also taught to reject his date and be rejected by her. He and his surrogate date roleplayed the scenario, where she told him over a phone call that she didn't have romantic feelings for him.

"The scariest part about dating is rejection," he says. "But I learnt that it's okay to end things that aren't working for me, and to respect someone else's decision when they feel the same way."

Ms Seghetti says that the point of her work isn't to help people manipulate their way into another person's heart, but to help them take a journey into their own.

"The point about these mock dates isn't to help you spew the best pick-up lines or become a skilled serial dater. It's to help you understand yourself better so that you get better at revealing yourself," she says.

"After all, vulnerability is a must for any kind of intimacy."

This news. Not pozzed assimilationists like lindus

A day after Acharya Lokesh Muni, along with a group of other religious leaders stormed off the stage at an event of the Jamiat Ulema-e-Hind expressing objection to its chief Maulana Arshad Madani's “Om and Allah are the same” statement, the prominent Jain monk on Monday said he could not tolerate the insult of his religion and culture in front of his eyes.

“I would rather accept my martyrdom. I can't tolerate the insult of my religion and culture in front of my eyes. So I protested and challenged the debate,” Muni tweeted.

Meanwhile lindus sing ishwaro allah tera naam unironically.

My question is how will India go about taking back the Pakistani land once they fail?

My guess is when Pakistan finally collapses we won't take it all at once.

Instead we will first go and capture the rest of Pakistan occupied Kashmir while sending the Kashmiris living there to the real Pakistan.

After we have done this we will probably push for recognition of independent territories within Pakistan similarly to what we did with Bangladesh.

Everytime Pakistan fails we create another independent chunk from it.

I figure cutting away Pakistan like this could be done easily within another 100 years and the smaller pieces will be easier to digest when Bharat has to expand.

What do you think bharatbros?

Andaman Sheekha reported on it on January 6, 2022, “The white sphere shaped object, looking somewhat like weather balloon, attracted many eyeballs because of its size and shiny white surface.” This description matches the balloon that was shot down by the US last week.

Even Andaman and Nicobar Command PRO had then told Andaman Sheekha that the object is not related to the ANC. The local newspaper had then asked: “Now, the question is which agency has placed the object in the sky and why? If this object is not released by any agencies in Andaman then was it sent for spying? But in this age of ultra-advanced satellites, who would use a flying object to spy?”

More than a year later, indications, as per all these reports are that the balloon was Chinese and probably was over Indian airspace violating Indian sovereignty at a time that India and China were (and still are) engaged in a major standoff on the disputed border. It is not known if the government of India was able to identify the object or if it registered a diplomatic protest with the Chinese government.

US Deputy Secretary of State Wendy Sherman on Monday briefed nearly 150 foreign diplomats across 40 embassies, reports Reuters. This is likely to include India, but the Indian government has not issued any official statement on the subject so far. The US State Department has also sent to every US Embassy “detailed information” on the espionage that can be shared with allies and partners, as per the newspaper.

To be honest, since 2015 or 2016, I’ve struggled to make annual best movie lists because there have not been enough contenders. So unpopularity wasn’t completely unwarranted, but things got very toxic in the last few years, and Bollywood movies have been underperforming. The Marvel films that release in India and Telugu blockbusters like RRR outperform Hindi movies even in Mumbai, which is the center of the Hindi film industry.

Bollywhore's strongest defender

There has been a relationship between Bollywood and the government, but that relationship stopped at freedom of expression. Many film stars may have had their own political opinions, but that did not stop them from making movies that were expressive, and that were brave, and that were secular in many ways. Communalism and religious prejudice have always plagued this country. It’s just that this current particular establishment has weaponized that compared to the previous ones. Why? Because Bollywood has maximum influence over the masses, and they realized very quickly that this medium is how they will get their ideas across.

Because of that, the government has broken many of the powerful people in the industry into some kind of submission.

Ken ye say we bucked them laddies?

If you go to the most obscure foreign country, the one name people will know is Shah Rukh Khan. They’ll name one of his movies from the ’90s or hum one of his famous songs. He’s been an icebreaker for Indian travelers all over the world. He’s been that icon for three decades.

SRK himself is a Muslim actor, and even if he’s playing Hindu characters in these films — which was mostly the case — there’s always a sense in the back of your head that this is a superstar who’s very open about his religion, who’s not ashamed of his religion, who doesn’t hide his religion. The current government has wanted stars to cozy up to its Hindu nationalist narrative. Shah Rukh Khan, though, has resisted and kept his silence, which has become a statement. He hasn’t spoken up for the government as much as a lot of the other celebrities in this country, so you always feel like he hasn’t conformed and he is not broken.

Goodness gracious I just want to grill

And that's Khan covertly dogwhistling a desire to burn Modi on a stake more at 11

All this reached a head last year when the saga with SRK’s son unfolded. Aryan Khan [then 23] was arrested and jailed on trumped-up drug charges. As ironic as it may sound, that’s when the tides turned against the right-wing government and toward SRK. People felt the government went too far. It was too blatant. They went after a Muslim superstar and everyone’s favorite hero. That’s part of Pathaan’s success as well.

Nooo you can't arrest famous people's children you're only supposed to arrest irrelevant poors

The significance of the title is that patriotism isn’t a Hindu birthright anymore. It’s not tied to a certain kind of religion. I see a lot of people criticizing the fact that SRK’s character doesn’t say he’s an Indian Muslim. We don’t know his real name — Pathaan was given to him by a family he met in Afghanistan. But it’s not about what kind of Muslim you are or where you come from. It’s the fact that your love for your country, your love for film, your love for people, your love for art in general, should not be hijacked by one particular community.

These people are just going to pretend the first president bhajipao nominated wasn't a based patriotic muzzie lmao. Rest in peace missile man.

When I started watching the film, two scenes in the beginning scared me. The first scene shows a Pakistani general vowing to destroy India, and the second is SRK’s introduction, where he tells someone to only speak in Hindi, a metric that this current government has been really pushing down our throats in the last 10 years. I was quite wary.

But then if you read deeper into a silly film like this — and it is silly on its surface — I don’t think the vilification of Pakistan exists as people think it does. The main female actor, Deepika Padukone, plays an ISI [Pakistan’s CIA] agent who rebels against her own government, who does not agree with what the ISI is doing, and says that her people would never agree to biological warfare against India. That Pakistan is the Pakistan that we don’t see in Hindi movies enough.

As long as you're a hot Paki foid willing to betray your people you'll get a nice peepeeing instead of a bullet

Tangential Paki sneed

https://www.theguardian.com/film/2023/feb/03/bollywood-pakistan-muslims-narendra-modi-india

Bollywood has always reflected Indian political trends; the films of the 1950s mirrored the optimism and romance of the newly independent country, the 1970s hero was a proud but disenfranchised man fighting against the powerful and corrupt. In the 1990s, there were endless films about neo-liberal yuppies who worked in Dubai, danced in London discos and drove shiny Mercedes. Since Narendra Modi and his rightwing party, the Bharatiya Janata Party or BJP, came to power nearly nine years ago, Bollywood has readily embraced his menacing politics.

God looking back those 90s films were suicide inducing levels of cringe.

In 2018, the starlet Alia Bhatt headlined Raazi, a film about a woman who marries a Pakistani army officer in order to spy on the country during the 1971 war with India. In 2019, Bollywood released Uri, a military flick about Indian special forces launching a “surgical strike” on Pakistan after a supposed terror attack. Though Uri was based on a real incident that nearly brought two nuclear-armed states to war, it played fast and loose with the facts.

All this is especially unpleasant as Pakistanis have traditionally been enthusiastic audiences for Bollywood – the industry brought us songs and fun and the profound knowledge that our neighbours look and live just like us, demonstrating the incredible power of culture done right.

If after 60 years of being fed bollyslop they still want to kill us its obvious that isn't the case though

I interviewed Khan, or SRK, as he is known to his hundreds of million fans around the world, for a book five years ago and noticed even then that he straddles an uncomfortable role as the ever grateful Muslim who is really, really, really Indian. As India embraces the Hindu majoritarian politics of its ruling BJP party, high-profile Muslim figures like Khan are increasingly seen as fifth columnists. Trolls and angry protesters often beseech Muslim stars to “go back to Pakistan”, though they have no roots there. Today in India, anyone who questions the government or dissents from popular discourse is slandered as “anti-national” and told to go live in Pakistan.

Imagine liking the country that made you famous and rich. You should hate it and fund blasts in it that's how you can be a true Muslim.

Khan’s film Pathaan provides cover and does much needed glamour work for the Indian state and the gross abuses that the abrogation of article 370 resulted in: the longest internet shutdown to take place in a democracy, the arrest of thousands of Kashmiri protesters, the sending in of thousands of paramilitary troops and untold other human rights violations. To set up an event such as the degradation of Kashmir as a fun plot point – those who are against the revocation of article 370 are homicidal maniacs and those who defend it, such as Khan, are valiant government agents with pectoral muscles – is beyond tragic. The political project of Modi’s quasi-fascist BJP cannot be set to fun music and helicopter stunts, try as Bollywood might.

The context is what makes it even funnier though. We will flood Kashmir with Biharis and they VILL like it.

A byproduct of Modi’s visceral hatred of Muslims has been a strengthening of ties between India and Israel during his tenure. In 2017, Modi became the first Indian premier to visit Israel, where he and Benjamin Netanyahu enacted the bromance of two image-obsessed prima donnas by posing barefoot on beaches. Beyond photo ops, trade between the two countries now amounts to close to $8bn, with India now the largest buyer of Israeli military equipment in the world.

Many have argued, myself included, that Pakistan, burdened as it is by a failing economy, decades of terrorism and the humiliations of the war on terror is undergoing a cultural renaissance. Pakistani film-makers are making movies about trans love stories, female desire and the toxic societal power of patriarchal fundamentalists, and producing music that questions the divisions and partitions between us and our Indian brothers and sisters. And so it is doubly strange to watch what is happening across the border, where culture is no longer a medium used to extend conversation but rather a means to snuff it out.

So true bestie. You empower those s more we'll continue being chuds.

A lot of people say that it’s cruel to talk about box office numbers. I used to look down on these figures for the longest time, but every morning I check them. For better or worse, it’s a measuring stick for the conscience of the nation right now.

Conscience of the nation.
