#Watch | IDBI Bank employees began a two-day nationwide strike on November 1 to protest against the proposed privatisation of the lender, demanding that the Union government scrap the sale to Canada’s Fairfax Financial Holdings.
More than 10,000 employees across over 2,000 branches are expected to participate in the strike on November 2 and 3.
The strike comes weeks after the government approved the sale of a 60.72% stake in IDBI Bank to Fairfax, led by Canadian billionaire Prem Watsa, for about ₹53,000 crore.

HT Exclusive: CBSE collected ₹16.47 crore from students seeking scanned Class 12 answer sheets, verification of marks and re-evaluation after 2026 board exams. It refunded just ₹3.57 crore to students who marks improved but didn't disclose number of such students.

The arbitrary & malafide removal of voters in this SIR by Gyanesh Kumar has a life & death impact on deleted voters. Gradually the govt is showing its hand, by saying that they will deny govt benefits to deleted voters

Yet another death on an IIT campus. This time Dhanbad.
It is chilling how every month there is a death on an IIT campus-- & yet life goes on.
14th death on IIT campus this year. Meanwhile Sahil Wakode's parents are still on protest. Nothing changes, IIT system remains unmoved!

Unless there is adequate representation of SC ST OBC members in faculty, the IITs campuses will never be safe for students from these marginalized communities
The IITs have failed to adhere to the constitutionally mandated reservation policy in faculty recruitment, impacting SC/ST representation in key bodies meant to curb discrimination.

For all the idiots who think technology will solve the world problems. The issues in this world doesn't require new technical solutions, we already have the resources and tech, its the social issues that need to be resolved first, inequality needs to be addressed
IT'S NOT ABOUT THE RICH & THE POOR, IT'S ABOUT DIGNITY OF LABOUR - 21 floors. 20 kg of cemented bricks on one head. 4 modern lifts in the building, but zero allowed for the human who actually built it !
Our system still treats the real builders of this nation like second-class citizens. Progress means nothing if humanity is left behind. Shame on this system! 💔🤬

Is the total voter deletion of the Indian Voter, closer to 16.40 crores and not 13.60 crores as has been widely accepted? @ShivasundarShi1 @rajuparulekar @nit_set @ayushikar1998 @IndianExpress @the_hindu
Have a look and decide: An analysis of the figures supplied alleges that SIR exclusions, combined with an estimated shortfall in the opening (base count) of the country’s electorate coupled with what seems like a deliberate failure to account adequately for new (first-time) voters, take the figure of nationwide exclusions to approximately 16 crore electors

This is the colonial, serve the white man mindset that the BJP accuses the rest of possessing!
Can't trust a single thing these companies put in their labels, can't trust what we eat, and the judiciary is like, the lowest fine possible for multi billion dollar company, should shut the damn production facility and force them to pull back the entire stock

It has begun. In Trilokpuri today, people are doing what the Election Commission never did: reading the deleted-voter lists line by line and checking their own names. This is what a public audit looks like. The voter list belongs to the people. #NoSIR #MakeSocialAuditsMandatory
RTI shows that most IITs does not have the required number of mental health counselors for students. They also do not hire faculty from SC ST OBC communities which is a violation of reservation norms.
The number of mental health counsellors for students at multiple Indian Institutes of Technology (IITs) across the country is several times lower than what the University Grants Commission (UGC) recommends, data obtained through the Right to Information Act (RTI), 2005, revealed.

RTI data shows that IITs are violating reservation norms in faculty recruitment despite getting thousands of applications from SC ST OBC candidates. They don't have enough cousellors for mental health support, no functioning SC ST Cells, and no grievance redressal mechanisms
At 7 IITs, 1,495 reserved SC, ST, OBC faculty posts vacant; IIT Kharagpur alone has 710, reveals RTI data. Over 90% SC, ST, OBC faculty posts at IIT KGP vacant despite 2,798 applications since last year; 50% vacancy at IIT Rookee; IIT Jodhpur fills just 74 posts; only IIT Ropar meets counsellor norms.

In solidarity with medical doctor and community health organiser Randall Sequeira and Dalit activist Laxman Naik, who were both arrested by the Odisha police.
Their incarceration is the latest in a string of arrests as part of the Odisha state government’s attempt to quell the peaceful protests by Dailt and Adivasi people, who are fighting to preserve their natural resources.
