This is easily THE funniest ad I have seen recently (this ad is from 2015), though the over-the-top Thai humor is completely incidental/unconnected to the product. I believe the brand has a history of such ads where pointless humor is the point, consistently 😁 Agency: Adapter Digital Agency.

Who, from the Govt's side, was responsible for sending only a few snippets of the phone call to NSFU? Why wasn't that person taken to task for wasting court's time? How long would this BJP-directed drama continue to protect the double-engine ex-CM and the patently anti-dharma BJP?

I guess BJP is building a case for hiking fuel prices now that all the elections are over and people cannot punish it for doing so in the immediate future (before which Modi can visit 1,297 more temples and distract us all).

"Justice Swarana Kanta Sharma should have recused herself or at least insisted that the recusal plea should be placed before another judge for hearing. But neither of these happened and the verdict is also self defensive, argumentative and accusational rather than analytical".

The otherwise humble LPG that usually remains in the background is now being highlighted in the most unlikely places - in a print ad, as a USP to not need it, and in a menu for Taco Bell where it is the reason behind a forced change!

"Opposition leaders travelled back in time (to 2023) to defeat the Women’s Reservation Bill. A bigger crime is their wilful sabotage of the Delimitation Bill. As a result, we can’t immediately redraw the boundaries of electoral constituencies to benefit the only deserving political party in India".

Any fix needs 3 things: fiscal federalism, a real Rajya Sabha with money-bill power + domicile rules, and portable welfare. The alternative is that India either betrays the constitutional commitment to one person, one vote or breaks the current fiscal bargain benefiting the poorer states.

Black humor of the worst kind: 65 poll officers face SIR arbitrary exclusion (along with 20 lakh others) and Supreme Court casually asks them to move tribunals, fully cognizant that only 139 have been cleared out of the 27 lakhs! Stupendous collusion in mass disenfranchisement.

AAP: Corrupt, no morals, no money, no power. BJP: Corrupt, lots of money, power overflowing. Will also ask, 'How much is 1 kg of morals?', pay for it, and corrupt that too, while chanting Lord Ram's name on the side.

I still remember Paytm's 'India's most sincere bank' claim front-page advertisement on January 1, 2019, merely days after RBI blocked it from on-boarding new users for assorted rules violations! Turns out sincerity needs more than a media plan.

While Modi and BJP were hoodwinking the entire country with their fake devotion to women last week, "double-engine" Manipur has been on the boil multiple times. This, even as the PM and HM are canvassing for votes in Bengal and Tamil Nadu, insisting on "double-engine" for those states too.

No, this is not an official ad by Amul. Amul has stopped the 'speaking truth to power' narrative quite some time back. This is someone other than Amul using AI tools to create a quick visual and using Amul's branding to gain legitimacy.

A LOT more Indians need to start questioning, on the road, every single political party/group that obstructs the public, in every single state. The politicians and their coterie need to be shown their place as "public servants", not as high-and-nighty who can hold traffic to ransom at will.

I'm reasonably sure TOI put these 2 headlines side-by-side for a reason other than that they both pertain to the same state. The headline on the left ('democracy in peril') applies perfectly to the situation on the right (27 lakhs vs. 139).
