Does a “first class hons” help kickstart your career?

With my sem 1 being done; my current GPA is at 6. I can afford just one B+ but rest all must be A or A+ for me to get past 6.5 GPA (first class). I am really hopeful for that but at the same time don’t want to over push myself if it’s really not worth it.

I’m studying Bachelor of engineering and I’m currently looking for grad roles and entry level jobs: I want to know if having “first class hons” really help in getting a better launch, or does it not matter in the long run?

One mistake and all her dreams crushed

12 years of her life were eaten away because of one mistake of hers: choosing a wrong life partner.
No matter what one does, those precious years lost cannot return, and the trauma she faced can’t be fixed.

This applies to men too, don’t trust someone just because you love them or are married to them. We never know what the other person’s intentions might be. Safeguard yourself first.

Yet another YouTuber generalising South India

This YouTuber who only talked about TN politics is generalising South India with the tagline “100% literacy” which is only specific to Kerala— a state where hero worship is non existent.

When will these people stop generalising.

Edit: ik most people would see this and not comment, or probably even comment in support of this creator because majority of this sub is unabashedly infiltrated by non South Indians. But just putting it out there for the real ones.

How exactly did Telugu become the Lingua Franca of art in South India?

I’ve been reading about South Indian cultural history and was fascinated to learn that for a long time (especially around the 17th–19th centuries), Telugu was essentially the lingua franca for classical music, dance, and court literature—even deep within Tamil-speaking regions like Thanjavur.

I know the Vijayanagara Empire and the subsequent Nayak kingdoms played a massive role in this political shift, and that the Maratha rulers continued the tradition. I’ve also heard the phonetic argument about Telugu being the "Italian of the East" due to its vowel-ending words making it perfect for Carnatic music. But beyond the standard explanation that "Telugu is phonetically flowy and great for vocals because of vowel endings," what is the actual socio-political history here?

I'd love a deeper historical breakdown:
How did the local Tamil-speaking populations and elite scholars react to Telugu becoming the dominant language of high art?

Are there specific historical records showing how the Maratha court justified continuing Telugu patronage instead of shifting to Marathi or Tamil?

Beyond Tyagaraja, who were the other key figures or institutions that cemented this linguistic monopoly on art?

Another very obvious step by BJP?

AP Dept. CM Pawan Kalyan recently held a press meet where he said their party will contest in Telangana’s next elections.

However, Janasena Party did contest in 2023 elections and got embarrassingly poor vote share.
With which they succeeded back to Andhra and somehow managed to become DCM allying with TDP into NDA.

Pawan Kalyan also made statements against Telangana’s “regionalism” and how it “affects” national interests.

BJP individually is a sidelined and unpopular party in Telangana. After the recent case of Bandi Sanjay’s (BJP Telangana sitting president) son, BJP’s image got much worse.

It seems like BJP is trying desperately to grasp Telangana with the support of Pawan Kalyan’s party and his erstwhile fame as an actor.

Dairy? Are we really importing DAIRY from such a far away country just to protect Indian farmers when we have one of the best dairies in the world?

Did Luxon not go through before signing this? It’s looking like all the things mentioned in this deal are only in favour of India.

  1. Full duty free exports for Indian goods.

But New Zealand doesn’t get that.

  1. Exporting DAIRY without liberalisation from India just to “protect Indian local farmers” is the most ridiculous thing this govt has ever signed into. What about New Zealand’s dairy sector that’ll face competition because of this?

  2. New Zealand would do better if the govt invested its citizen’s tax money of 20 billion dollars to fix its own problems first and not in other countries.

(Only benefits the ultra wealthy investors)

  1. Nz already struggles with unemployment and housing crisis. But sure, let’s bring in more and more international workers to replace us and make the market more and more competitive.

This ONLY benefits the wealthy business owners who wish to get their work done paying cheaper wages to migrants.
