Indian couples keep lying about how they met. Dating app stigma is real

Modern dating and the black cat-Golden Retriever theory

Every couple thinks they’re black cat–Golden Retriever until the bill arrives. That’s when everyone magically transforms into a terrified goat.

Why fruity men are winning hearts on dating apps—it’s survival of the softest

Be soft, smile more, never text first—‘feminine energy’ is men’s new obsession

Uncertified dating gurus are teaching women to be suggestive, mysterious, and never loud. For some of us, this level of performance is simply unachievable. We might as well give up and become Brahma Kumaris.

Something really changes in the air that makes everyone text their ex this season, and the emotional kabaddi of modern dating turns festive.

That older, wiser guy is undateable—just ask women his age

It’s naive to assume that all older men make better partners because they’ve achieved some sort of clarity in life by reading Osho or following Ankur Warikoo.

MGNREGA was democratic state-building. VB-GRAMG turns welfare back to mai-baapism

Steady growth rooted in ‘Dravidian model’. How Tamil Nadu more than doubled its GSDP in 10 yrs

RBI Handbook of Statistics shows state’s GSDP has more than doubled in past decade, finishing second behind Maharashtra. It has performed well across health & education parameters as well.

Israel has ‘realised who its real friend is’, eyes defence expansion in India amid arms curbs by others

It is argued that India-Israel ties are moving from buyer–seller dynamic to one focused on joint development & manufacturing partnership, a shift 'more durable' than traditional arms sales.

India’s top airline just handed sarkar the keys. That’s IndiGo’s real ‘crime’

Don’t blame misfortune. This is colossal incompetence and insensitivity. So bad, heads would have rolled even in the old PSU-era Indian Airlines and Air India.
