Need some guidance regarding travel from IIT Guwahati to Guwahati Airport.

My sister will be traveling from IIT Guwahati to the airport on 30th May after finishing a PhD interview there. Since she has another interview at IIT Mandi on 1st June morning, we are trying to plan the journey properly and avoid unnecessary confusion or delays.

I wanted to ask about the fastest and most reliable way to reach Guwahati Airport from IIT Guwahati. Are cabs/Uber easily available from the campus? How much time does the journey usually take considering traffic? Is there any better option apart from app cabs?

Since she will be traveling alone, any advice regarding safety, timing, or things to avoid would also be very helpful.

Need help regarding the best route to reach IIT Mandi.

My sister has a PhD interview scheduled on 1st June morning at IIT Mandi (CQST department). She will be traveling from IIT Guwahati after finishing another interview there on 30th May.

Right now we are very confused about the route and safety. At the moment, she is thinking of taking a flight to Delhi and then traveling from Delhi to Mandi by bus. But that would probably involve night travel, and since she will be alone, we are worried about security and overall safety.

We are also confused about how to reach IIT Mandi after reaching Mandi, whether buses/cabs/Uber are easily available there, and how safe and reliable everything is.

Unfortunately, I cannot travel with her due to urgent work, so the whole situation is making us quite tense.

Can anyone please guide us regarding the safest and most practical route?

Guys, just relax - it's marked "Done (On Paper)" for a reason.

I’ve received around 10-12 from submissions and seen some posts here getting bashed for sharing the update, many saying the tracker is biased or BJP propaganda, just because the ₹3,000 women’s scheme is marked as Fulfilled.

If you open the full details page, you’ll see the clear note:

>Done (On Paper) - Scheme becomes active from 1 June 2026. Will be updated to Done & Operational once actual disbursements start reaching accounts.

This is the same standard method usually followed in cases like this. A formal government notification with a fixed effective date is a major milestone. If there’s any major implementation failure after 1st June, we can downgrade it. That’s how the tracker works.

We are not a fan page. If something is wrong, please send proper feedback with sources instead of just calling it biased. Constructive criticism with links actually helps improve the site. Don't just send hate or say things like "i will be in big trouble".

Big thanks to everyone who has been sending genuine updates, links, and suggestions - that’s really helping.

I probably won’t post about the site here anymore.

Peace.

People started using my BJP promise tracker to report real problems. I genuinely don’t know what to do.

After launching the accountability tracker for BJP govt promises, I added a small form so people could submit updates and bring issues to my notice related to manifesto promises.

The tracker was made only for aggregating updates around promises and policies. It is clearly mentioned in the form that this is not maintained by the government or any political party.

But over time, many people started submitting their personal problems, labour complaints, corruption allegations, unsafe factory conditions, recruitment irregularities, wage issues, etc. Some of these are genuinely disturbing.

The problem is: I have no way to verify these claims, and honestly no power to help directly either.

So I am posting this here because I’ve heard some reporters and journalists are active in this sub. If possible, please look into these issues and report on them. And if anyone from any authority is reading this, maybe some of these complaints deserve attention.

I’ve attached a few screenshots of submissions I received.

I honestly don’t know if I should even post this, but I thought maybe I could at least get some advice on what to do.

A media outlet just called my static BJP promise tracker an “official government website” and I’m honestly stunned

I made a simple static website to track BJP’s West Bengal election promises. Just a public accountability tracker. No affiliation, no funding, no political connection.

And now some outlet published it as if it’s a government property/official website.

The funniest part? The homepage literally says:

>“This is NOT a government or political website.”

You can literally see the disclaimer in the screenshot itself.

At this point I’m wondering if I should just shut the site down because apparently making a public tracker now means people will randomly label it as official propaganda or government media.

Absolutely unreal.

There should be accountability for promises made before elections. Should i publish this?

I just vibe coded this out of their manifesto. What do you think?

Edit:

I published it: https://bjp-govt-wb.pages.dev/

Find the official manifesto and methodology at the bottom of this page.

Use the form to submit updates with sources.

The code is open-source, anyone can clone it to create and maintain their own version.

Open a tab. Paste your Markdown. Hit Print. Done.

No account. No install. No file size limit. Nothing uploaded anywhere. Just a clean PDF in your browser in under a minute.

🔗 https://www.innateblogger.com/p/markdown-to-pdf.html

I built this because I needed it, kept it free because it's useful. It's been live for almost a year and I'm still actively maintaining it.

What makes it actually useful:

For most people, the core loop is enough — live split-view preview, full GitHub Flavored Markdown, LaTeX math (KaTeX), syntax-highlighted code, Mermaid diagrams, and page breaks. Auto-saves to localStorage so you don't lose work.

But it goes deeper than that:

For documents that need to look professional: Custom headers and footers with 3 zones per row (left / center / right). Use variables like {title}, {author}, {date}, {page}, {total} — so your footer can say Page 3 of 10 automatically. Watermarks (text or image, with opacity and rotation). Page size, margins, 1 or 2-column layout.

For research and academic writing: Built-in citation manager. Add sources once, type [@smith2024] anywhere to cite, drop [@bibliography] where you want the reference list. Supports BibTeX import, numeric [1] and author-year (Smith, 2024) styles.

For people who care about typography: Six style presets (Academic, Modern, Elegant, Compact, 2-Column, Default). Per-heading controls — H1 through H6 each get their own font, size, weight, color, and alignment. Table styles, HR styles, blockquote border, line height, letter spacing, paragraph spacing. Save your entire setup as "My Style" and it restores next session.

It's not Pandoc. It won't do everything. But if you need a Markdown document to look like something you'd actually hand to someone — in under a minute, from any browser, without installing anything — it's probably the fastest path there.

Free. No ads, no watermarks, no uploads.

Two major updates and a lot of bug reports later, v3 is live:

🔗 https://www.innateblogger.com/p/markdown-to-pdf.html

Still 100% browser-based, free, no signup. Nothing leaves your device. PDFs are now more customizable than ever with advanced styles and templates to help you create professional-quality documents.

What's new in v3:

  • Citation Manager — type [@key] to cite, [@bibliography] for the reference list. Supports BibTeX import, numeric [1] and author-year (Smith, 2024) styles
  • Watermarks — text or image, with opacity/rotation/size controls. Show in preview or print-only
  • Header & Footer — 3 zones (left / center / right) with variables: {title} {author} {date} {page} {total}
  • Templates — starter documents for CVs, cover letters, academic papers, reports
  • Per-heading styles — each of H1–H6 gets its own font size, weight, color, and alignment
  • Syntax highlight themes — pick the code theme that fits your document
  • "My Style" slot — save your whole style config and restore it next session
  • Dark mode — editor UI now adapts (preview stays white, it should look like the actual PDF)
  • Smart debounce + XSS sanitization — faster on long documents, safer on pasted AI content
  • Fixed: long code lines were causing a scrollbar in the PDF instead of wrapping

Everything from v1 and v2 still works:

GFM tables, task lists, footnotes · LaTeX (KaTeX) · Mermaid diagrams · Syntax highlighting · Page breaks · Style presets (Academic, Modern, Elegant, 2-Column) · Table styles · HR styles · Auto-save · Sync scroll · Fullscreen

This started because I needed to turn AI-generated Markdown into a clean PDF without uploading it anywhere.

If something's broken or you want a feature, drop it below. The last two versions came mostly from comments.

My workflow has been generating a lot of Markdown files lately. AI chat exports, planning docs, research notes, meeting summaries - they all end up as .md files. And reading raw Markdown in a text editor is fine when you wrote it five minutes ago. It's not great when you're trying to navigate a 400-line document on your phone three weeks later.

I wanted something that felt less like a code editor and more like reading a real document. Jumpable headings, clean rendered output, works on mobile without feeling cramped. So I built it.

https://www.innateblogger.com/p/markdown-editor.html

The two things I kept in mind while building it: simplicity and ease of use. I didn't want feature bloat. I wanted to open a file and read it properly.

What it does:

  • Open any .md file directly in the browser
  • Live split preview - editor and rendered output side by side
  • Toggle-able Table of Contents, auto-built from your headings, fully jumpable (this was the main thing I wanted)
  • Mobile friendly with a clean Edit / Read toggle - single pane on small screens, no awkward zooming
  • GitHub Flavored Markdown - tables, task lists, footnotes, strikethrough
  • KaTeX math rendering (inline and block)
  • Mermaid diagram support - flowcharts, sequence diagrams, Gantt charts render in preview
  • Syntax highlighted code blocks via highlight.js
  • Find and replace with match count and navigation
  • Formatting toolbar for quick inserts without memorizing syntax
  • Auto draft recovery via localStorage
  • Recent files panel
  • Fullscreen mode
  • Dark mode support

100% browser-based. Nothing is uploaded anywhere. Free, no sign-up.

If you deal with a lot of .md files and want something lighter than a full IDE but more readable than a plain text editor, give it a try. I've been using it daily for a few days now and it's replaced my old workflow entirely.

Would love feedback - especially if something looks off on your device or browser.
