In an ironical contrast to US, First Amendment to the Indian Constitution (1951) was made to counteract the "abuse of freedom of speech and expression"

Here's the full text of the amendment from legislative.gov.in: First Amendment Act (Warning: badly formatted PDF).

Relevant information:

  • Article 19(1)(a) of the constitution says: > "All citizens shall have the right to freedom of speech and expression".

  • The First Amendment Act added that: > Nothing in Article 19(1)(a) shall ... prevent the State from making any law in so far as such law imposes reasonable restrictions on [the rights] ... in the interests of the security of the State, friendly relations with foreign States, public order, decency or morality, or in relation to contempt of court, defamation, or incitement to an offence.

It was, in retrospect, a hugely consequential mistake right at the very beginning.

Amul completely changed their Chocolate Brownie ice cream! For worse.

Left one has the packaging date of Mar-2026. It was my favourite ice cream. So chocolaty and actually tasted like eating a brownie.

Right one is what I just bought. Packaging date is May-2026. It's a gooey mess. Feels like eating flour mixed-in with a chocolate ice cream. And has a minty aftertaste for some reason. The color is unappetizing too.

What the fuck Amul? If chocolate has become expensive - increase the price of the ice cream. Why do this!

(And while we're at it, their chocolate-chip ice cream was even worse than this. That one legitimately was just chocolate flavoured flour. I thought they were going with "chocolate-chip cookie dough" ice cream. But, why do this with brownie too?!)
