What if graduate degree becomes the eligibility requirement for all government jobs and post graduate degree becomes a bar? It would be useful to have a public debate on this.

Stablecoins could make dollar exposure easier to acquire. For India, that creates a new external-sector challenge. Former Finance Secretary Dr Arvind Mayaram argues that the rupee’s vulnerability is not just about the dollar’s global dominance. It also reflects domestic weaknesses — from high input costs and fuel taxation to weak competitiveness and dependence on imported energy and technology. Digital dollarisation could add another layer. As dollar-backed stablecoins become easier to hold and transfer, households and businesses may gain a faster route into dollar-denominated assets. That does not mean stablecoins explain the rupee’s past weakness. But they could become another channel through which existing pressures are transmitted. What should India do? Keep domestic payments anchored in the rupee. Regulate stablecoin gateways. Track cross-border flows. Protect users. And make rupee-based international payments more competitive. The larger point is simple: monetary sovereignty cannot rest on regulation alone. It also depends on building a stronger productive economy and making the rupee more useful internationally.

Hindu Girl #Shanti Meghwar Visits Pakistan Darawar Ittehad’s Central Office to Thank Chairman @PItehad Shiva Kachhi for His Support Mirpurkhas Sindh: #Shanti Meghwar, a Hindu girl who was reportedly a victim of abduction, alleged forced religious conversion, and marriage, visited the central office of Pakistan Darawar Ittehad after being reunited with her family, following the efforts and support of the organization’s Chairman, Faqeer Shiva Kachhi. During her visit, Shanti met with Faqeer Shiva Kachhi and shared the full account of the alleged injustice and hardships she said she had experienced. She also expressed her gratitude to him and Pakistan Darawar Ittehad for standing by her and her family during this difficult time. On the occasion, Faqeer Shiva Kachhi comforted Shanti, gently placed his hand on her head as a gesture of reassurance, and offered her emotional support. He assured her that Pakistan Darawar Ittehad would continue to stand with her and her family and make every possible effort to support them in seeking justice, protection, and their legal rights. Faqeer Shiva Kachhi stated that the mission of Pakistan Darawar Ittehad is not merely to highlight the problems faced by minority communities, but also to become a voice for the oppressed, support vulnerable families, and strive for justice for those who have suffered injustice. He emphasized that the protection of women and minor girls, the safeguarding of their rights and dignity, and access to justice are among the organization’s key priorities. He further stated that whenever a poor or vulnerable family faces injustice anywhere in Sindh, Pakistan Darawar Ittehad will make every possible effort to help them within its capacity. He added that the organization believes in the rule of law, human dignity, equality, and the protection of fundamental human rights. Its struggle is not against any individual or community; rather, it is for justice, accountability, and the protection of vulnerable people. Pakistan Darawar Ittehad is a voice and a source of support for every oppressed, poor, and vulnerable person. The organization remains committed to ensuring that no girl is left without support, no family is forced to struggle alone for justice, and every victim has access to appropriate legal assistance and protection. Message from Faqeer Shiva Kachhi: “Wiping the tears of the oppressed, comforting suffering families, and becoming the voice of those who have no one to stand beside them are the true purposes of our struggle. We will continue our efforts to protect human rights, uphold dignity, and pursue justice for every victim of injustice.” #PakistanDarawarIttehad #FaqeerShivaKachhi #ShantiMeghwar #MinorityRights #JusticeForMinorities #StopForcedConversion #ProtectMinorityGirls #HumanRights @BBCUrdu – at Umarkot, Pakistan

He was one of our most upright CECs and he is not badmouthing India simply stating an undeniable fact in answer to a question.
Pity, a former CEC bad mouthing India to a London based journalist, formerly with BBC. Speaks for itself.

'Tough to face China now". CLEAR EYED ASSESSMENT BY DG ITBP ON THE GAP BETWEEN INDIA AND CHINA IN CONVENTIONAL MILITARY CAPABILITY. But DG ITBP holds out hope. Says developing Drone capability is an opportunity. Cites Ukraine. DG ITBP Shatrujeet: "To face China through traditional ways would be tough now. Because, China has invested heavily in the modernization of its forces and has moved ahead. But through drones, small nations can fight bigger nations, as we have seen in the Russia-Ukraine and Iran-USA conflicts. Every Day Russia is sacrificing 10000-15000 soldiers every month."
