I've been a silent reader of this wonderful platform since many years. However, one aspect has remained constant i.e. the grit and perseverance shown by all the candidates year after year.
You all are the embodiment of the purest human spirit. The one who refuses to give up. I am proud of you all. The ones who have shared their pain here and the ones who haven't... always remember UPSC में हारा हुआ हाथी सवा लाख का होता है. You have lost only a few battles. Those were precious battles I agree. However, the WAR of life will be won by you and only you. All the best.
@Sherkhan1428 Welcome back bro. I always read your comments. I am glad that you are in a good mental space now. All the best. You will do it.
@AzadHindFauz Congratulations brother. I envy your articulation skills. You will be in the list for sure.
@SergioRamos 2021 is your year. :)
@Patootie and@whatonly I hope you both are appearing for interview. :)
@whatonly Thanks for acknowledging. All the best for the interview!
The intent behind every creation matters. Noonacademy is not an organization that would like to invest in parallel cinema-like content where female and caste representation would stand out. So to expect such high standards from them is like fooling ourselves. Majority of the pop culture thrives on emotion and not on character-driven stories which mirror the society. Moreover, they released their product not on their App but on Youtube. Free of cost. So the intent is quite clear and we all know what it is.
P.S.- I haven't watched the show. I don't intend to watch it in the future as well.
People will tell they went to iit.But won't tell that they got into it with 1 lakh rank(if you know what i mean) when I missed it despite getting 10678 rank(those days new IITs hav'nt come up in such huge numbers as they r today)
They will tell you they went to IIM Ahmedabad but wont tell they got there with 82 percentile.While I had to contend with IIM Lucknow,Indore and Kozhikode despite a 99.5 percentile(if you know what I mean).
Similarly people advised me last year about writing mains answer because they had got 750s rank.When marks came I had more marks than them,but I did'nt get interview call(if you know what I mean)
Anyways,frustration of abhilash in episode 5 sitting on that tea shop was genuine.Many feel the same way.
If you know what I mean.Anyways there is no point in discussing things I can't change.Best of luck to all of us.
1 thing I realized here is that people will discuss very high intelluctual things.Tell you that they xyz rank or have done pqr things.They put you down.
But when you do background check you come to know you knew much more than them,had better marks than them.
Thanks and bye.Don't curse me now.Had I known this gyaan some 2 months back I would have been much more calm now.
It was eye opening 2 months here.
Thanks @Noleisgoat for all you have done.
Peace and amen
Hi Sunny,
I am sorry to bring this up but can't help it. I had messaged you after the Mains result were out to know whether you had made it or not. Like many Forum peeps, I too was worried about your result and your well being, given that your comments here prior to the results were quite depressing and sad. (As rightly pointed out by@SergioRamos ) You reverted back next day and informed that you have made it. I was so happy bro.
However, you added in the same reply that you had attempted suicide a few days back and have come back from hospital bed. Those words sank my heart. I did feel helpless. All I did was write a few words of comfort and had asked you to take care.
All I want to say is please don't waste your time in complaining and whining about how UPSC has taken away life out of you. You are a talented, hard working, ambitious person. Why to waste energy and time in looking down upon fellow humans?
Please focus on bringing positivity and cheerfulness in your life, regardless of the circumstances you find yourself in. I'm afraid the negativity that you have unfortunately accumulated over the years might reflect in the Personality Test and affect your scores. Please don't let that happen.
Everyone on the Forum wants you to succeed and contribute to our nation constructively. Sorry if my words sounded harsh. Take care of yourself. Peace out. 🤘
The message clearly says he told him over a PM. The guy knows exactly what he did. He was hurt by his comments so he decided to bring up something which would hurt him, except he decided to project the comment as something coming from a well-wisher.
As you can read in this screenshot, he himself had commented about the "personal" incident openly on the forum one month back.

Most of the people might be reading your comments first time would not have known hence the outrage I feel. Although, old forum peeps were well aware how sunny was pretty depressed and talked all this post mains openly.
Btw, baaki sab to theek hai, ye tabs icon pe emoji kaise laaye bhai? :O
More than 100 tabs are open bhai. Shayad usse emoji aa jaata hai. Try karke dekho :P
Bhai perhaps thats because he didnt have anyone else to confide in? and why are you projecting it like he did something wrong? in the worst case he was seeking attention. even so are we so consumed in ourselves that we cant be sensitive to other peoples suffering? whether we like them or not? plus lets not be naive. by bringing it up now, during the heated rebuttal, you were indirectly saying "this guy has a history of depression and negative ideas. dont take him seriously. hes not mentally stable". passive aggressive. even when your side of the argument has valid points to counter him easily. if you really did care you would have sent a personal mail, rather than sugarcoat your hate as genuine concern.
Did I say anthing about his mental health? Read my comment again. I am not pointing to his mental health. I don't know him personally and I wouldn't comment on anyone's mental health anyway. Also I did not share anything confidential or personal. I had no intention of my words being interpreted otherwise and if my words give out wrong meaning, I apologize to Sunny. I want nothing but the best for him.
A question to Forum peeps: How would you feel if an IAS or IPS officer says exact words to you what Sunny said in his post. Don't answer here, answer it in your heart.
And this is not a hypothetical scenario. Sunny is about to become an officer. He is one step away (interview) of becoming one.
If Indian bureaucracy is filled with people for whom social justice and neutrality are just keywords to write in the ethics paper, then my friends its a death knell for sovereignity and integrity of our nation.
No offence but people like you are the lowest of the low. To score points in a debate, you brought about in public something he told you in confidence while pretending you care about him.
Yes. We are lowest of the low. That is the exact reason Dronacharya asked for my thumb as a Guru Dakshina. And what I said was not confidential. Sunny's words are still there on the Forum. Go read them.
Economics is the crude reality of the life we are living. So whether its education, industry or relationship, money plays a dominant role in all.
I guess, Mrunal didn't like "Aspirants". This is what he said in his article published yesterday on his website. "उसी तरह जिस तरह कुछ बाबू शोनो की यूपीएससी क्लियर करने की कैपेसिटी नहीं लेकिन फिर भी दशकों तक दिल्ली में अड्डा जमा कर बैठे रहते हैं कि “मैं यूपीएससी की तैयारी कर रहा हूं.” और आजकल तो वेब सीरीज मैं यूपीएससी तैयारी का ग्लोरिफिकेशन/महिमामंडन देखकर ऐसे लोगों की संख्या और बढ़ सकती है."

Others : Le me make my own memes. I'll impress the world.
Whatonly : I am too busy . I have to read about Left wing extremism. Le me take a shortcut- takes some other meme, do related changes, and then post them on forum. And then with this become an independent candidate for PM's post( in the memes world) :)
