Physical brick and mortar bookshops are not just shops but places where we find unknown books, unexpected gems and like-minded friends. Online books shops are also good, because they are cheaper and more convenient. But brick and mortar book shops are living cultural places.
I sincerely request all of you to assign minimum 25% of your monthly book budget for books from physical shops. I have been doing it for last 10 years now. They need to be patronized. Even if it means shelling out a few extra rupees.
Whichever city you are in, support them. Warna ek din ayega jab achhe kitabonki dukan nahi rahegi. It will be a sad for India.

This is a big news. There is another chariot burial is found. Are we closer to find the Vedic Aryans footprints finally? Only time will tell...
I dont know why it has not created waves of sensations in media like earlier when Sinauli was found. It is not even properly reported in The Hindu and Indian Express so far. Mostly covered by local media. I hope this news picks up soon.

Hey everyone,
The results are out. Some of you are celebrating. Some of you are hurting. That’s okay.
If you didn’t make it this time — don’t let it break you. Reaching the interview stage in this exam is huge. Most people never get that far. You’ve already shown grit. As Shakespeare said, “Sweet are the uses of adversity.” This is part of your story, not the end of it.
For those who made it — heartiest congratulations. Now begins a different kind of journey. A life of service dedicated to nation. I hope the idealism lasts long.
And for everyone — trust the process. Your turn will come.

Birdev Done from Kolhapur. He got AIR 551 in 2024 exam.
He is a son of a shepherd. He used to take the sheep out for grazing in childhood. Today he is an IPS.
When the result came, at that moment also he was on the hills, shepherding his animals in the afternoon heat. That is where he came to know about the news.
It takes special grit to cross so many hurdles in life. 🫡

Fingers crossed.
