    "The institute where I’m pursing my M.Phil. changed their policy by asking the SC/ST/OBC students who are eligible for GOI Post Metric scholarship to pay hostel and dining hall fee i.e 31,000 per year where the annual income is 45 to 60 thousand rupees. It’s a disastrous move from the institute because the fee structure will not let anyone of us think of higher education and dignified lives."

      Prashanthi Konday Once upon a time in my childhood, I remember my mother rejecting my wish to join a dance class, volleyball team, and school educational trips because we have to pay extra money other than school fee. She said, all of them don’t give you a job, or good...

    "As for what happens to us behind the wheel, it would be surprising if driving did not change the way we behave and think. When we drive, society becomes an obstacle to be wished away. Cars encourage the extreme individualism that makes a sense of common purpose hard to achieve."

    "Yet the same report points out that 75% of the particulate emissions that vehicles produce come from their tyres and brakes, and erosion of the road surface. In other words, every motor vehicle, including electric cars, can damage your health. So why not pay people to replace their old cars with no car, by issuing the incentive in the form of public transport tokens?"

    "Study in Bristol shows how cars slash the social fabric like so many knives. On streets with little traffic, people tend to know more of their neighbours, have richer relationships with them and allow their children to be more independent than on streets with heavy traffic. Cars kill community; the death of community kills wellbeing."

    Also SC had indefinitely extended linking of existing bank accounts with Aadhaar. Looks like UIDAI/iSpirt are desperate to ram Aadhaar through before it falls apart like a rotting corpse.

    This is strange. Now RBI mandates linking of Aadhaar number with bank accounts. (from the looks of it both existing and new bank accounts). This is "subject to final SC judgement".
    https://www.medianama.com/2018/04/223-rbi-aadhaar-linking/
    Long ago RBI was against Aadhaar linking as it is neither secure enough to prevent illegal activities nor is there any benefit. This move further reinforces the fact that RBI has been reduced to a puppet of the govt and Aadhaar mafia.
