🚨 🚨 An accident is traumatic enough. Being left stranded by the police for over TWO HOURS, with a FIVE-YEAR-OLD CHILD and a SENIOR CITIZEN (My Mother), is simply unacceptable.🚨 🚨 1️⃣ On 31 October 2026, at approximately 11:01 PM, our family met with a serious road accident near GAIL Service Station, Bagaluru Road, while travelling from KIAL towards Whitefield. A speeding Mahindra Thar (KA 01 NC 6868) rammed into our Tata Punch (KA 53 MM 7661). The impact deployed the airbags, left our car completely immobilised and caused minor injuries to the occupants - @AditiDoon @myr179 2️⃣ The actual accident footage is attached to this post. Senior Karnataka Police officials are requested to watch the video and examine the circumstances and severity of the collision. 3️⃣ Despite repeatedly contacting Chikkajala Traffic Police, our family was left stranded at the accident spot for over TWO HOURS. No assistance vehicle was made available. We eventually had to arrange our own transportation to the police station, leaving our severely damaged and unsecured vehicle abandoned on the roadside. ⁉️ What followed raises even more serious questions.⁉️ 4️⃣ Despite repeated requests, the accident scene was not inspected and documented while our vehicle was still at the location. We were given varying explanations, including staff unavailability, the need to register an FIR first and that a spot inspection could only be conducted during daytime. 5️⃣ This raises serious concerns about compliance with Rule 150A read with Clause 1 of Annexure XIII of the Central Motor Vehicles Rules, 1989, which prescribe accident investigation procedures, including scene inspection, photography, video recording and preparation of a site plan. 6️⃣ We then had to independently arrange towing, wait for hours and manage the vehicle handover at approximately 4:30 AM. 7️⃣ An FIR (181/2026) has since been registered, naming the Thar driver. Both vehicles are reportedly being retained for RTO inspection. 8️⃣ We demand answers and immediate intervention from senior Karnataka Police officials: 1. Why was a family left stranded for over two hours after a serious road accident? 2. Why was the accident scene not inspected and documented despite repeated requests while the damaged vehicle was still there? 3. Who is accountable for the apparent lapses in the initial police response and investigation? 4. Why should accident victims have to independently arrange transportation, towing and manage basic formalities? 5. When will the RTO inspection be completed and our Tata Punch released? There must be no unnecessary retention of the vehicle. 9️⃣ We have preserved dashcam footage, photographs, videos of the accident scene, recordings of our interactions with police personnel and the video of the vehicle handover. The accident footage is attached to this post for immediate reference. 🔟 We are NOT asking for special treatment. We are asking for the police to follow prescribed procedures, preserve evidence, act responsibly and treat accident victims with basic consideration. AN ACCIDENT VICTIM SHOULD NOT HAVE TO FIGHT THE SYSTEM AFTER SURVIVING A ROAD ACCIDENT. Senior Karnataka Police officials, we seek your immediate intervention, accountability and a time-bound resolution. This matter deserves attention at the highest level. @chikkajalatrfps @acpnortheasttr @DCPTrNorthBCP @DCPNEBCP @Jointcptraffic @blrcitytraffic @BlrCityPolice @CPBlr @DgpKarnataka @bngdistpol #KarnatakaPolice #BengaluruPolice #RoadSafety #PoliceAccountability

Absolutely not done. @letsblinkit sent a product with an open seal and old, used-looking packaging. Your agent never told my wife to inspect it. Now support says "you signed for it, not our problem." Pushing old stock under the garb of open box delivery? Shameful. Fix this. @zomato Disappointed.
Crazy Deal at Blinkit ! Don’t miss it blinkit.com/prn/x/prid/69719…

I stayed in 11 hotels across Europe for 13 nights. Rs 4.6 lakh worth of rooms. I paid Rs 21K cash. 🤯 Not a typo. Every hotel, every point, every honest review 👇
Just back from a 14 day long couple’s Europe trip that covered Spain, Italy and Switzerland 🇪🇸🇮🇹🇨🇭 The flights were booked in business class and hotels were a mix of luxury and budget options. Very high level breakdown of the numbers: Amex MR points burnt: 5,19,000 Axis Atlas Edge Miles burnt: 1,59,750 Out of pocket cost: ~INR 3,50,000 Details of all the redemptions and costs dropping soon 👀. Follow along if you are someone who’s looking to optimise their points stash and keeping the out of pocket cost relatively low.

People applying for Japan Visa take note If you are applying through VFS Mumbai, Pune, Ahmedabad and Goa, from 19 October onwards you need to take prior appointments. Walk-in submissions are once again paused. The same happened last year as well when the tourism season was at it's peak. Likely to stay like this for the next few months.

Shameful act by HDFC. My current account has been frozen for the last 12 days due to a KYC issue, despite submitting all the required documents. Can someone please help me connect with HDFC’s escalation team and get this resolved urgently? @HDFC_Bank @HDFCBank_Cares

3 Business Class flights. 13+ hours of flying. Just 42.5K miles + ₹6K in taxes per person ?? Hell yeahh, bring it on! ✈️🔥 I booked my onward journey from Delhi to Barcelona using Amex Membership Rewards points, flying a combination of SriLankan Airlines + Qatar Airways. DEL → CMB → DOH → BCN Delhi–Colombo was SriLankan Airlines Business Class on an A320, while Colombo–Doha and Doha–Barcelona were Qatar Airways Business Class on their new 787-9 Mini QSuites. And the cost? 42.5K American Airlines AAdvantage miles + ~₹6K taxes per person. Now, how do you get AA miles from India? There’s no direct Indian credit card transfer partner. The workaround is Marriott Bonvoy, at a 3:1 transfer ratio. So I transferred 2.55L Amex MR points → Marriott → 85K AAdvantage miles, enough for 2 Business Class seats. The SriLankan Business Class experience was… basically Economy with better legroom 😂 They served breakfast, which was okay. I didn’t have very high expectations anyway, so overall, it was decent. But Qatar Business Class? An experience in itself. The crew, aircraft, food and service were all exceptional. You could choose when you wanted to eat, and almost everything we tried was delicious. (The frozen idli appetizer was the one exception 😂) The drinks (alcoholic and non-alcoholic) were top notch too. And the hard product was easily the best I’ve experienced so far. Enclosed suites. Beautiful lighting. Gorgeous colour combinations. And those Mini QSuites are just 🔥 And then there was the Al Mourjan Business Lounge – The Garden at Doha. Calling it a “lounge” almost feels like an understatement. The sheer scale, the massive indoor fountain and the beautifully designed spaces made it feel more like a luxury hotel than an airport lounge. You genuinely get that feeling of exclusivity the moment you walk in. A pretty spectacular place to spend a few hours between flights. The amenity kits were beautiful too… Unfortunately, they were immediately hacked by my wife. 😂 So that’s my little review of Qatar Airways Business Class and how I managed to book this entire journey for just ~₹12K for two people. And this is only the beginning. Next up: how I booked our return journey from Switzerland in Business Class, again using a completely different airline and this time, through their promotional fares. If you found this useful, a like + repost would be hugely appreciated. ❤️

Sharing the story of a refund that took immense patience (on my part) and 14 months! I have received the refund; should I demand compensation or not? Brief timeline: - Flight booked in May 2025 (HDFC) - Flight cancelled by the airline in July 2025 - Refund in Sep 2026

After 1 year, I started using some choice words which I can't share on X and then finally said that I am going to raise a complaint with RBI Ombudsman and DGCA regarding the matter In 15 days, they confirmed the refund is in process and in another month, the refund was processed

It took 14 months, multiple foul-mouthed emails, and finally a threat of higher authorities to get a refund, which was promised within 12 working days. I finally have the refund : Amount I paid minus the convenience fee. Should I go after the inconvenience fee now? If so, how?

Don't book your Uzbekistan tickets just yet. You may still need to get your visa done first. In the past few days, there was a lot of news about Uzbekistan becoming visa-free for Indians. Now, here comes the fine print. Indian passport holders with a valid multiple entry tourist/business visa granted from Australia, Canada, Japan, New Zealand, Republic of Korea, Schengen, UK, and USA are allowed a 30 day visa-free entry to Uzbekistan. Rest everyone has to get an eVisa before traveling. Note: For Japan, you would need a Multiple entry visa, do not travel on a single entry visa.
