Protest Against Fake Protests

The recent demonstrations by "students" and the violence adopted by them is quite disturbing.

Police officers are gettng targetted. Other nations know about the protest sites before our local police has any clue. Huge funds are being spent to provide food and drinks to protestors.

All this points to a bigger conspiracy to suit the agenda of those with vested interests.

I was thinking on these lines, and the following is what I received via WhatsApp:

---------------------------------------------

A. There is a concerted, well planned and ruthlessly executed international conspiracy against India.

B. There is massive funding... to effect a Gen Z sort of Nepal/ Bangladesh upheaval.

C.All anti national forces have joined hands and this was a CAA / Kisan / Khalistan sort of imported /violent upheaval.

D. The banning of NGO Funding/The annulment of Greater Bengal and failed excision of Chicken Neck... The loosing ground of Missionary/Christanity Conversion template....

E. The weakening of India and more particularly its Defence/Armament capabilities

F. India to be stopped from surging economically...

Friends, We are at dangerous crossroads...

Complacency can be very dangerous.

Let us all be overtly vigilant.

Let us all do our best, to disabuse all this contrived nonsense against our Govt.... In our societies..

There is a plan to keep this so called movement alive.... Be vigilant.

Bharat Mata Ki Jai.🙏

At the core of all this is a cultural war.

-----------------------------------------------

I agree with the above points, do you too?.

Had it been truly "student protests" regarding "NEET examination", there would have been discussions about NEET. There would have been solutions to address and strengthen the system.

But, now the stage is being hijacked to suit the selfish agenda and to set a fake narrative.

Students attack the police and damage public property while chewing gutkha/paan?

We certainly need civic sense and moral science lessons in school.

And the intelligence to understand and identify, and do what is right for our nation.

My country, my pride.

Am I Ready?

"Are You Ready?"

"Am I Ready?"

"Is It Ready?"

How often have we pondered what to answer when posed these three words.

Questions hit us whether it concerns the submission of a paper, a report or project, or getting ready for a function, etc. usually when there is less time...

We are most conscious when we are attempting something for the very first time, say, taking the driving test, or an exam that means a lot.

No amount of preparation can actually make us truly ready.

People solve mock-tests, and go through several drills, but being ready or preparation-level is known only when we are actually doing it- and facing what means everything.

Check Before Calling - Beware of Fraud

Last week, I was busy when I received a call from the mobile number- 995416754.

The caller "Sanjay Manjhi" said there was a parcel in my name.

I asked if the delivery agent had reached my address.

He said that he was calling from the head-office, and the delivery agent was unable to find my address.

The caller requested me to call the number of the delivery person that he had messaged me.

The caller said that the agent was close to my home but unable to locate my address, and it would be nice if I called him and guided him.

I asked him to call the agent and to ask the agent to call me.

He could search for our address on the map, as it is very much registered online.

I have been receiving parcels from delivery agents without any issues.

He asked where is the address?!

I said he would have my address as the address must be on the parcel!

As the caller requested me to call the number he had messaged, I opened my SMS inbox.

I found the message, and there were some extra characters apart from the phone number.

I ignored the *21* & # namely the extra non-related digits in the message, and I simply copied the 10-digit given mobile number and dialled- 8434909230

That number was switched off.

I called "Sanjay Manjhi" and told him that I had called that number and it was not reachable, and asked him to communicate to the agent directly.

He asked me to dial the numbers in the entire message given in the SMS i.e. *21*84349 09230#

Why was he so insistent that I call the agent using those very characters and numbers?

If this were a genuine case, they would have done the job of reaching out, instead of creating a sense of urgency and requesting and even threatening that the parcel will be returned!

I calmly and firmly said that I was not going to dial any other numbers.

"You will not call that number?" He sounded flustered.

"No, I will not call", I replied being very sure that I was doing the right thing.

By then, I had suspected that this was a fraud call, and that the scammer was trying to do Call Forwarding.

I immediately checked online- what *21* was.

My guess was right.

It was indeed their plan to activate call forwarding and gain access to my number's messages.

And that plan was foiled as I did some quick checking and thinking.

You can see the SMS conversation:

He tried calling me twice.

But, I did not receive his calls.

I understood *21* with # caused Call Forwarding.

I found-

The code *#121# is the code that can be used to check the status of unconditional call forwarding on your mobile device.

Dialing this number and pressing “Call” will show if your calls, SMS, and data are being forwarded to another number, along with the specific phone number it is redirected to.

One can disable active forwarding by immediately dialing ##002#

I checked the Call Forwarding status on my phone.

Nothing is active now, as it is "Disabled".
