Off-Topic Chit-Chat

on Lac thread,members are talking about Prithvi. nobody will fire any nuke.don't worry but some of the OSINT knows the ground reality. i have seen few members who are really worried. you should worry. Ajai shukla probably hate bjp but he is right. China might want to swallow entire Ladakh. This is their way. This is how they do things. I know Ladakh is important for india.
First challenge for india is to suppress enemy air defense units. I believe that Chinese air force is still superior in terms of numbers. Question is do you want escalation or sit silently? in both ways, China will try to grab more land.

Second is army to army. obviously Indian soldiers are more experienced but the command and control structure of PLA is excellent so we will see who wins!

Third is navy. I personally feel that both navies will not fight. I believe that China wants more land and they have made this plan after abrogation. obviously abrogation doesn't change ground reality but china is more aggressive and more worried so this is why this drama. Anyway i wish best of luck to India but i know Chinese as well. This might escalate to many fronts.obviously many fronts is a real possibility.

Thank god! finally some of the members here realized that china is grabbing their land and they must do something. Obviously you should but only if all diplomatic channels fail.

For Pakistan, obviously this is good. i mean it will ease pressure from us. i remember there were daily caps on both sides just before this standoff. now India is silent. Obviously many in Pakistan believes that India might actually attack Pakistan but i see no reason. India can't walk away like this. this standoff is the ultimate test. Anyway Pakistan will watch closely. From ground situation,it looks like that all diplomatic efforts failed.

Is there any thread where we can discuss the economic/financial aspects of nuclear energy as compared to other energy sources on the parameters of investment required, govt subsidy, inflation cost and long term sustainability ?

I think this thread will be good -

Nuclear Energy in India : Updates

Kudankulam nuclear power plant (KKNPP) is being built since 2013 in the Indian state of Tamil Nadu. KKNPP’s Unit 1 began its operation in 2013 and was handed over to India three years later. Unit 2 was first connected to India’s national grid in August 2016. NEW DELHI (Sputnik) — On Tuesday, a...

Rajiv Gandhi was a far better statesman.
This RSS extremist regime of Nerender Modi has a problem with everyone.
Internally Muslims are being lynched and their nationality questioned.
Externally India now has a war like situation with all neighbors.
Nepal, Pakistan, even Bangladesh and now China.
Just to be clear, no matter how hightened Nerender Modi ego is, China can take on USA, and militarily India stands no chance against China.
How many lives India is willing to lose for satisfying one person's ego?.
Germans tried that with Hitler and the results are written in history.

My cousin is also posted in ladakh right now. I hope he is safe and sound... he is young somewhat naive and last time we met he showed me pics of his company patrols and video of scuffle they used to have with PLA on his mobile.

OT (mods please excuse, also delete if you think so)

FYI... I have a confession to make.

I once took IAS exam. My degree is in engineering but I took Sociology as subject paper, Heck got a degree from Sadhu Vaswani College, though I never took a single class and only sat for exams. Cleared Prilims Mains and when I was preparing for Interview this is what I was taught : NEVER Portray yourself as someone who has a strong opinion which is against established conventions. It will *censored* up your interview and EVEN if you got in, it will *censored* up your career. Full stop! To reach the coveted position of Principal Secy, you need to qualify early, and keep your record squeaky clean.

Went for interview. One question on strengths of materials. One question on Ghotul among Gonds, since I was a native of that region and claimed to have studied sociology. Then one question on current affairs, specifically Seventh Pay Commission. I opined that it should be mandetory for PSCs or Public Sector Bank employees to be paid in stock options after a certain point in cash with majority of vesting starting 5 years after end of service. The look from panel was interesting. There was just one comment. Indian Government don't pay in stock options. That was it. I knew I disqualified. Results was not surprising. Anyways, I was not exactly top ranker and without a smashing interview was not going to make it.

IAS selects and promotes for those who gel well with the system.

You bought a degree and you could not clear interview where is the problem?

Or the problem is they coach for interview and I guess there is no coaching for SSB so they are better? You should try SSB too before comparing them.

There are engineering subjects too if you can handle them just in case sociology is below your level.

I didn't buy degree. I just didn't attend classes which for most of parts never actually happened. I still sat in exams by university fair and square.

Only Mech/Civil/Electrical. Plus government goes out of the way to make it harder for engineers. I don't complain about sociology. After all it allowed me to get till Interview with relative ease. Why will I speak low of it?
