India's education debate has a vocabulary problem.

We call it "learning" when we mean "memorisation." We call it "performance" when we mean "examination score." We call it "education reform" when we mean "syllabus revision."

NEP 2020 is attempting to fix the actual problem — shifting from rote learning to competency-based, skill-oriented, experiential education. As of 2025, it's 67% implemented.

Result: 92.35% voter turnout in Phase 1. Bengal's highest since independence.

No one would say his name. No one would give his address — not residents, not the local police. IPS Ajay Pal Sharma found it anyway, walked to the door, and warned Jahangir Khan on camera: "If he intimidates people, we will deal with him strictly."

Bengal's highest-ever voter turnout — 92.35% — followed. People voted when they felt safe. That's the story.

Unpopular truth about credit cards in India:

Paying ₹45,000 on a ₹50,000 bill — on time — still gets you charged interest on ₹50,000.

Not ₹5,000. The full ₹50,000. Retroactively. From the day you spent.

That rule alone has quietly cost Indian consumers billions. And almost nobody knows it.

We documented every hidden clause in our latest investigation.

🚨 *IMPORTANT for every credit card holder*

Did you know paying even ₹1 less than your full credit card bill means you pay interest on the ENTIRE amount — not just what's left unpaid?

India's credit card interest rates go up to *3.75% per month = 45% per year* 😱

And the "Minimum Due" trap? Pay it and your balance actually GROWS every month.
