Mahim Khan’s reel outside Parliament Street Police Station criticises Delhi Police and cites the protest after journalists Shaheen Khan and Nafisa Khan alleged assault at Saket Police Station. The incident and conflicting accounts are documented, but Delhi Police denies assault and religious targeting; the broader issue is how an allegation against police can be independently…

Chetan Setia’s reel says Punjab jumped from 27th in 2020 to No. 1 in school education. The latest PGI does make Punjab the highest-scoring state and the national leader in its learning-outcomes domain, but official records show Punjab was already top by overall PGI score in 2019-20 and 9th among large states in NITI Aayog’s…

A Ramyagy Kumar reel reproduces Osho’s claim that poverty will be removed by science, not religion, alongside Bhagat Singh’s Why I Am an Atheist. The Osho passage is authentic in substance and the material-solutions argument has support, but poverty reduction is not caused by science alone: evidence points to growth, jobs, infrastructure, human capital, institutions…
