MARRIAGE IS NOT THE END GOAL. ALPHA WOMEN ARE THE REAL DANGER!

 MARRIAGE IS NOT THE END GOAL. ALPHA WOMEN ARE THE REAL DANGER!

_______________________
When I first read and watched the news about the missing honeymoon couple from Meghalaya, my heart sank. My immediate thought was that they might have met with a terrible accident or maybe they slipped deep in the jungle, fell into a river, or were tragically attacked by criminals. The possibilities were horrifying to imagine from looting, assault, even murder and beyond a hostage-like situation may emerge.
________
When the husband’s body was eventually recovered, a chilling fear gripped me. I couldn’t stop imagining the trauma the wife must have endured witnessing her husband’s murder and possibly being abducted, raped, or killed, or maybe she tried to escape the killers and is lost in the forest looking for help.
_____________
But what none of us could have imagined was the shocking revelation that the wife was complicit in the murder. Knowing that she was forced into the marriage against her wishes may explain her anger, but it does not justify the alleged killing of a husband from a fifteen-day-old marriage.
There were countless other ways to walk away like mutual separation, legal action, or simply voicing her dissent against in-laws claimingg harassment, citing sexual incompatibility, accusing him of being a homosexuala,l anything would have been better than getting him killed.
Instead, this path she took is so dark, so irreversible, it has not only robbed a young man of his life but also betrayed the very fight women have been waging for equality and justice in abusive marriages.
One Alpha woman is enough to bring disrepute to all the genuine cases of abusive marriages.
______________
This case, like several others in recent years, should serve as a huge wake-up call to Indian parents. We are conditioned to raise our daughters with marriage as the ultimate goal as if their lives are meant to culminate in being “settled.”
It’s like parents are in a hurry to wash their hands off their daughters by marrying them off.
This mindset is deeply damaging and is resulting in such horrific outbursts from girls.....
Marriage is not the destination. It is merely one of life’s many milestones. It may happen, or it may not, and that should be okay. Today’s youth are independent, capable, and have multiple avenues to lead fulfilling lives. If not anything, many young people are happy adopting a pet and living a contented life, if that is their choice so be it!
This tragic case is not just a crime story, it’s a mirror. A brutal reminder that forcing anyone into a life they haven’t chosen can have dangerous consequences. It’s high time we shift the narrative and start raising emotionally intelligent, independent individuals not just good brides or grooms.

Let us start learning Mandarin!

 Let us start learning Mandarin! Congratulations, India, and Cricket fans across the world!

__________________
Once upon a time, Bangalore was the most beautiful city. It was welcoming, warm, full of positive energy, and full of open-hearted people.
Whether you came from Assam, Ahmedabad, Kashmir, or Kerala, Bangalore embraced you. It was India's soft landing spot, especially for young people trying to make a life in a fast-changing world.
I say this as someone who's not from Karnataka but has always admired the culture and, even more so, the Kannadigas I've met. They've been thoughtful, humble, and deeply rooted. That's why this shocks me: Why are they alienating themselves?
__________
Let's discuss the elephant in the room: the language debate. I don't understand the language tension building up on either side.
Why are some people so aggressively enforcing Kannada on others, and why are some so resistant to learning it?
Learning a new language is always a gift. It never takes away; it only adds.
But forcing a language onto someone breeds resistance. It doesn't create love; it creates fear and defensiveness.
And to the non-Kannadigas, mocking or ignoring a region's language or culture while living there? That's not "cosmopolitanism;" that's arrogance.
Mutual respect is the only way forward. Don't force. Don't reject. Learn what you can. Respect what you can't. It really is that simple.

Let us now shift gears and discuss the sensitive topic of the RCB mania.
It was a long wait for the cup; yes, it was emotional.
But somewhere along the way, the celebration turned oddly territorial. Suddenly, RCB's victory was "Bangalore's victory" as if the rest of India had no part in it.
Come on.
RCB is a franchise. The players come from across the country and the globe. Kohli, Faf, Siraj, Maxwell, pandya they have fans everywhere. If the victory parade had happened in Kolkata or Gujarat, people there would have celebrated just the same.
So no, Bangalore doesn't "own" RCB. Cricket belongs to all of us.
_____________________
Dear Bangalorians pls Don't Build Walls Around Yourself.
You are still the most beautiful people, but only if you stop building fences out of pride.
Don't let pride turn into isolation. Don't mistake cultural confidence for cultural superiority.
You are a vital part of India's story, but you're not the whole story—none of us are. We're only special when we see each other as equals, not rivals.
__________
If we keep turning against each other over food, festivals, and languages, mind you, we are just making it easier for Pakistan, china or others to divide us further.
It may be time we all signed up for Mandarin classes because, at the rate we're going, we're doing China's job for them.
______________
Why is the Karnataka government celebrating RCB's victory? What role do they have to play in RCB's success? If anything, their role and job were limited to providing security to the fans and players assembled to enjoy the success. They failed at their basic responsibility of giving the least to the RCB Team and RCB Fans of Banglore.
Condolences to the families who lost their loved ones in the victory parade
