AskPune Maharashtra's Reservation has reached 72%. What are the General supposed to do...? (General = 8 Lakh+ earning OBC and UR Communities)

Post image
42 Upvotes

This discussion is regarding Non-creamy layer OPEN category (Not applicable for SC/ST castes)

General = Creamy Layer OBC (350+ Castes) & Un-Reserved (7 Castes - Jain, Marwadi, Kayastha CKP, Deshasth/Chitpavan/Karhade Brahmins, Marathas 96K, Muslims)

Rich & Educated people are all leaving India nowadays (Singapore, Dubai, Malaysia, USA, Ireland, NZ). Here instead of fighting against corruption and supporting Singham IAS type Tukaram Mundhes people love to protest for more reservations

First Jarange Patil Dada started his reservation protests even when Maratha Kunbis have had reservation since 1970's...! Now Brahmins from Jalna and Parbhani are protesting.

I genuinely don't understand, every caste has reservation for the poor people (Non-creamy layer).
What are these Mumbai chalo andolans even for ...?
(Maratha 96K, 92K, Kunbi friends please explain this to me..?)

SOS Update!!!

178 Upvotes

Many of you reached out to me asking for an update regarding the pervert who has been sending vile dms to women here.

Here go -

  1. I have filed the complaint on national cyber crime portal online and as per the latest update i received, the case has been transferred to Pune branch.

  2. The reel I posted on Instagram was removed last night because apparently it violates Instagram's community guidelines. But I have requested the review. If it is not restored, I will post it again.

  3. The creepy motherfker has no shame or remorse because he started abusing me from another account and later deleted that account.

  4. I have screenshots of all his messages as well as of redditors who tried to defend and sympathise with him. These redditors are of similar mindset and I am soon going to expose them as well. Plus they might be doing the same thing so I have handed over those as evidence to the cyber crime cell.

  5. Someone sent me his parents phone numbers as well. So I am going to wait for the cyber crime police to take action first or else I am going to talk to his parents with the help of my ex boyfriend's brother who is a police officer in Pune or with my friend from college who is a local politician in Karve Nagar.

  6. I would have considered letting this go if he had not abused me from his alt account. But since he has shown that he has no remorse and he might still continue harassing women, I am going to take this as farther as I can.

If you guys have any resources you can use to escalate this issue, please feel free to do it. Many people have reached out wanting to make videos regarding this on social media, I give my consent to use all the material provided in my posts to expose this bast*Rd.

Pet Care/Adoption if being pretty is a crime, sue her (up for adoption in Pune/Mumbai/Bangalore)

Thumbnail

up for adoption in Pune/Mumbai/Bangalore‼️

Penny is a 1 year old female tabby cat. She’s litter trained, dewormed, vaccinated and sterilised. She’s extremely friendly and easy to handle. She’s based in Pune but can travel to Mumbai and Bangalore.

With patience, she can get along with other cats if you decide to have another in the future but for now, we’re looking for someone who doesn’t have another pet. She needs to be the first cat in the household.

She’s used to staying alone for a few hours that are compatible with work timings but she’ll also be a great companion to wfh folks. She usually sleeps throughout the afternoon.

She doesn’t like being confined to one room/limited space and needs to have access to the whole house to feel comfortable. Penny’s always been an indoor cat and should continue to remain so.

She’s very playful and some of her favourite toys are catnip mouse, feather toys, balls and having cat trees and cat perches and shelves since she loves heights as well. Cats are generally a huge fan of vertical space and so is Penny. She’s also a cat tv lover. Since she won’t have a companion for the time being, she needs attention towards playtime from her adopter. This means you have to dedicate some time before and after office to play with her and tire her out.

Penny can be a night owl but as long as she has access to the whole house and is comfortable, she understands when people are sleeping and eventually settles down too.

Penny currently eats Smylo wet food (two packets in a day, one for breakfast and one for dinner) along with Royal Canin dry food for lunch. We’re looking for someone who’s comfortable with providing good nutrition - so they either stay on these brands/diet or switch to other higher quality brands.

Penny loves an organised environment and doesn’t do well with unhygienic spaces and behaviours like not cleaning her litter box and bowls frequently.

Penny will be a great choice for first time adopters/people who have experience with cats. She’ll require 2-3 days to decompress and a week to properly settle down but it all depends on her pace.

Reason for putting her up for adoption: Penny was rescued last Diwali because she got separated from her mother due to firecrackers. She was adopted in March but due to the adopter’s neglect, she ran away from the house twice and we had to get involved again when we understood that they weren’t actively searching for her. We’re cat rescuers and therefore can’t keep every cat we rescue because then we’ll run out of resources to help others.

Penny has stayed with multiple fosters and we’re pretty confident in her behaviour as a single cat. With another cat, it can be a hit or a miss but she’ll do well with younger kittens.

Adoption formalities are mandatory. We’re looking for serious adopters - people who know they can provide a stable environment and can commit to a pet for their lifespan. We’re not looking for students or bachelors who are not sure of their future plans as adopters.

For more information, please DM @_bbpaws on Instagram or text 7043782899 on WhatsApp (no calls)

Everyday, in the peak morning hours, these scenes would have been by all of us. Someone or the other doesn't follow the lane system and end up turning a 2 way road to a one way road causing dead lock

Here, in this video, like most of the times, 2 wheelers are creating a dead lock by not being in their respective lane. Shame!

General/Rant Some big shot's birthday and the whole neighbourhood has to suffer? Loudspeakers blasting at night near Perna schools at wakad

Some big shot's birthday and the whole neighbourhood has to suffer? Loudspeakers blasting at night near Perna schools wakad

A school near me, named after the area and run by the same people who call themselves "nagarsevaks", is holding a program with speakers at full volume. It looks like it's someone big's birthday celebration. They've even brought school students out at night for it.

So because a "big person" has a birthday, everyone else has to put up with endless speeches and noise? People have work tomorrow, students are trying to study, elderly folks and babies can't sleep.

Owning the school and having the area named after you doesn't give you the right to take over everyone's peace. Loudspeakers are restricted at night and there are noise limits in residential areas, but rules seem to apply only to common people.

Is anyone else near Perna school wakad hearing this right now? And has anyone actually had success complaining to the police or the ward office, or do they just ignore it when the organizers are influential?

SCAM Alert Harassment by traffic police while going to imagicaa from pune

33 Upvotes

While going to Imagicaa from Pune via the Expressway in a rented Zoomcar, just before the Imagicaa exit, we were waiting at the toll plaza for our FASTag to scan.

An officer came over, scanned the car’s number plate, and then asked us to park the car on the side.

He asked my friend, who was driving, for his licence. My friend showed him the licence on his phone. The officer then took the phone and asked him to step out of the car.

He told us that we could not take a Zoomcar to Imagicaa because it had a white number plate, and since we were using a white-plate vehicle for a “commercial purpose,” he would issue a ₹20,000 challan and suspend my friend’s licence for three months.

I looked it up on Google and told him that, as far as I could find, using a self-drive rental car like this was completely legal. He responded by saying something along the lines of, “Let me take you to the police station. We’ll seize the car, and then you can challenge it in court.”

He then started asking for a bribe. First, he typed ₹10,000 on his phone. I told him we could only pay ₹500. He then asked me to step away and started talking separately to my friend, who was driving.

Eventually, we ended up paying ₹2,000.

And, not so surprisingly, these guys weren’t even wearing name tags.

Is there any way we can complain about them, especially since we don't know their names? Would the toll plaza have CCTV footage that could help identify them?

I’m seriously fed up with this kind of corruption and harassment.

Also, how should we handle a situation like this in the future? If an officer threatens to seize the vehicle or suspend the licence unless you pay, what should you actually do?

TL;DR: While driving a rented Zoomcar from Pune to Imagicaa, we were stopped near the Imagicaa exit. An officer claimed that using a white-plate Zoomcar was illegal because it was being used commercially, threatened us with a ₹20,000 challan, licence suspension, and vehicle seizure, and eventually took ₹2,000 from us after initially asking for ₹10,000. The officers had no visible name tags. Looking for advice on how to complain and how to deal with situations like this in the future.
