Savitribai Phule's Poem: And you yearn not for the same

 And you yearn not for the same,

You posses intellect but work not on the same,
How then can you be called a human being?
Birds, animals, monkeys, human beings too,
All go through life and death
But if you gain no knowledge about this,
How then can you be called a human being?

Could a Similar Crisis Happen in India?

  Could a Similar Crisis Happen in India? India and Nepal share cultural, historical, and geographic ties—including an open 1,000-mile border allowing free movement—but their political and economic contexts differ significantly, making a direct replication of Nepal's crisis unlikely in the near term. However, underlying issues like youth discontent and corruption could fuel tensions if unaddressed. Here's a balanced analysis: Similarities That Raise Concerns Youth Frustration and Unemployment : Like Nepal, India faces a "youth bulge" with high unemployment among those under 25 (officially around 17-18%, but higher in urban areas per some estimates). Mass migration for jobs abroad is common, and social media amplifies grievances against perceived elite privilege (e.g., "nepo kids" in politics and Bollywood). Nepal's protests were fueled by TikTok and Reddit campaigns exposing politicians' lavish lifestyles; similar viral outrage could erupt in Ind...

  Reception and Reaction of PM Narendra Modi's Visit to Manipur on September 13, 2025 Prime Minister Narendra Modi's visit to Manipur today, September 13, 2025, marks his first trip to the state since ethnic violence erupted between the Meitei and Kuki-Zo communities in May 2023. The violence has resulted in over 200 deaths, thousands displaced, and ongoing tensions, with the state remaining under heavy security and affected by recent heavy rains. This short visit, lasting a few hours, is part of a three-day tour covering five northeastern states (Mizoram, Manipur, Assam, West Bengal, and Bihar), focusing on development initiatives amid criticism for being delayed and symbolic. Events and Schedule Modi arrived at Imphal airport this morning amid heavy rainfall, which disrupted helicopter plans to Churachandpur (a Kuki-majority district). He opted to travel by road—a 1.5-hour journey—to interact with locals en route. Security was significantly heightened around key venues lik...

  Who will be next PM of Nepal? As of September 12, 2025, Nepal is experiencing significant political turmoil following the resignation of Prime Minister K.P. Sharma Oli on September 9, 2025. The Nepal Army has taken control of security in Kathmandu and other areas, and President Ram Chandra Paudel is engaged in consultations with army chief Ashok Raj Sigdel and protest leaders to form an interim government. The constitution requires a new Prime Minister to command a parliamentary majority, but the ongoing unrest and demands for parliamentary dissolution complicate this process. No permanent successor has been appointed yet, and an interim leader is expected imminently to stabilize the situation and potentially oversee new elections within six months to a year. Based on the latest reports, Sushila Karki , Nepal's former Chief Justice (2016–2017), is the most likely candidate to become the interim Prime Minister. She is widely regarded for her integrity and anti-corruption stance, ...
