I'm explaining you the scenario's as in both cases people deny that anything of sort has happened. I thought you will understand it but ultimately you didn't. Just to give you some context, post the murder of Gandhi, even in Maharashtra the Chittapavan Brahmins were targetted and 1000s were killed. No one talks about it and you don't find many articles, doesn't mean it never happened. Shops of Tamil Brahmins, schools and anything which had the word Brahmin mentioned was destroyed in Tamil Nadu during the Periyar movement. And why ? just because a community was hardworking and more intelligent than others. Ofcourse, these targetted incidents won't happen in isolation, we all know humans just don't act in that way.

Only if a billionaire starts schools all over India focussing on civic sense, hygiene, empathy, this can change in the next 40 years. Why should it be a private enterprise? It should be the duty of the government.

The reason why sathunavu ( nutritious meal) program took off in TN when MGR introduced it was because it met a base need which was not satisfied. Something like universal income or some other basic service should be linked with this education then it will work. Need to work with physiological and safety services then population will take note.

Educated people in chennai are letting their drainage from homes into the mazhaineer kalvaaai/storm water drains.. Life cycle of each item should be taught in schools. Like what happens to solid waste. What happens to electronic waste. Plastic should be banned entirely. Only biodegradable products should be used. Everyone knows about it. Fact is people don't care...there are enough bins in airport which separates paper waste, plastic waste and wet waste. People hardly follow it, heck I doubt even the Janitors care. They just dump them in a bag which is further dumped by municipality trucks at a remote place. If you want a population of India to behave in a civilized manner, start using the same technique which China does. i.e. monitoring every action. But that comes with a different problem.
Lone Wolf Posted March 31 Posted March 31 (edited) As per capita income increases India's meat consumption is increasing as well. Ideal republic isn't far away after all. Slightly concerned for decline in Pork consumption but it may be down to lack in availability and decline of Pork eating North Eastern states TFR... Pork used to be mainstream in hilly states of HP and UK idk what happened blasphemous that it is below Beef Next step is making mutton prices affordable to Common people. Revolution in poultry is welcome Edited March 31 by Lone Wolf

Saare log jo papa kiye the puchle janam mein, they are born again as Chicken in India and as cows in the west! Regardless it is shocking that Pork is below Buffalo (beef) in India & it has been the case for so long. Hindu Kshatriyas used to go boar hunting and was common source of meal in the community. People in tribal areas still do... Illegal (for God knows why) Chicken numbers will skyrocket in the upcoming 2025 data... Mutton will surpass Buffalo too. Vicks57 and coffee_rules 2

Don’t cook with Parachute hair oil as you are imagining. Get authentic branded coconut oil. Healthier than any nut based oils

Get authentic branded coconut oil. Healthier than any nut based oils I am not debating about health here. It's the flavour and taste that is so bad. Parachute or some other brand, the basic flavour and taste is not so different.

I had a similar mental block about coconut oil like you. Found a good brand, that doesn’t taste like coconut oil at all A bit sweetish , but no flavor.
