Slippery slope is a fallacy, but enough of these incidents and people will absolutely start trying to apply this in their home states. I thought India had gotten past the "I don't like people from other states" phase by…
If you think the AI generated that metaphor, you haven't been paying attention.

I doubt this has been given judicial review at the High Court/Supreme Court level. As for Himachal, you seem to be the expert but I thought that Himachal disallows non-locals from buying land (which I also think is…

You hit the nail on the head. It's not that simple. I was born and raised in India and I have seen hordes of supposedly "educated" Indian people with degrees littering and making a nuisance of themselves; and seen a lot…
As someone born and brought up in India, I'm a little conflicted about this. Of course it is true that a lot of Indians have no civic sense, and will spit, litter, and generally make a noisy nuisance of themselves in…

You're hiding behind semantics. Why should there be a difference in the degree being conferred at all? And if so, why not split off the departments that confer degrees with a low-earning potential and call them…
Licensing and degrees are not mutually exclusive. Plenty of engineers take licensing exams (CS degree holders are a large exception).
Hopefully this will revamp the educational system in such a way that the pejoratively named "trade schools" can confer bachelor's degrees on their graduates as well. I don't really see why some no name university can…
They are right, it's too much. Let's reduce it to $1.39T. A company with 10 billion in market cap is still pretty big.
