In a nasty airport," the user, who according to her bio is a US citizen, wrote. "Thank you thank you hand eaters. We can all thank you for leaving your saliva around our airports & public spaces.

The X user shared the post on Sunday and since then, the clip has accumulated more than 23 million views. The video has sparked a discussion on social media. While some users called the woman "unhygienic", others called out the Twitter user for racism. Some users also blasted the original poster for recording the woman without her consent. 

"Y'all be so invested in other peoples lives like damn you recording a stranger eat and you don't find that creepy and weird," wrote one user. "And you filming her without her consent is more disgusting," said another. 

"If it was an American having fries you wouldn't bat an eye. It's not like she's sharing it with you either it's her own portion and how she culturally does things and it's less wasteful in terms of cutlery. You're the weirdo for filming a random person in an airport," commented a third user.

"You forget that different cultures exist? if somebody was eating fries with their hands, I highly doubt you'd be secretly videoing them. all of this whilst you have India's national flower in your display name," added another. 

However, the Twitter user refused to back down. "Culture aside. Is rice really a finger food? Shoving grains into your mouth with saliva at an airport is appalling. At least with a French fry, you don't have to eat the portion you touched. You wouldn't believe the number of ppl who don't wash their hands," the user wrote. 

"It's her mouth, her hands. Stop interfering and mind your business. Your handle name and your actions don't match," added a fourth user, while another explained why anyone eating their food with their hands shouldn't be anybody else's problem.

Term Of Last Elected Body In J&K Ends, No Fresh Elections In Sight

The curtain falls on the last vestige of elected representatives in Jammu and Kashmir as the term of over 28,000 panchayat members ended today with no fresh elections in sight.

In the absence of an elected government in the erstwhile state for more than five years, Panchayats-elected local bodies were the only democratic institutions functional in the region.

The administration of the Union Territory is likely to appoint administrators who will exercise the powers of grassroots elected bodies till the time fresh elections are held.

The Jammu and Kashmir State Election Commission today announced a revision of electoral rolls which will be published by February 26. It will be followed by a delimitation of Panchayats and reservation of seats for OBCs, sources told NDTV.

"The State Election Commission will run a special campaign to undertake an annual summary revision of panchayat electoral rolls," Jammu and Kashmir State Election Commissioner, BR Sharma, said.

While the District Development Councils ( DDC), which is the third tier of the Panchayati Raj System will continue to function, they become meaningless in the absence of panchayats and block development councils.

Elections for the panchayats and Urban local bodies were last held in November and December 2018.

In the wake of an election boycott by the National Conference and the PDP, most of the panchayat members were elected unopposed. Around 12,000 seats remained vacant and were filled after the by-elections two years later in 2020.

After the completion of the five-year term, all the urban local bodies ceased to exist in December last month.

Jammu and Kashmir has been under direct Central rule since June 2018. Last month, the Supreme Court set the deadline for holding assembly elections before September this year.

"Nature Of Violence Has Changed...": Manipur Chief Minister To NDTV

The nature of the violence in Manipur has shifted from clashes between two communities to attacks by insurgents on security forces now, Chief Minister N Biren Singh told NDTV in an exclusive interview.

The comments come amid fierce gunfights between the security forces and insurgents in Moreh, a key trading town on the India-Myanmar border.

"During these past eight months, unwanted incidents took place on some days, not for the whole eight months. Three-four months were peaceful and silent. The violence during the new year was between the state security forces and militants, not between two communities. Now, the dimension of the conflict has changed to state forces fighting against militants," Mr Singh told NDTV in an interview.

The Kuki tribes have asked the Centre to remove the state police from Moreh and keep only central forces. They have alleged the police of attacking Kuki civilians. The Manipur Police have refuted the allegations and said those attacking the state police commandos were hill-based insurgents.

The Chief Minister called for ending the Free-Movement Regime (FMR) on the India-Myanmar border, which allows people on either side of the border to travel over 15 km without papers in each other's territory.

"Border fencing is a must. It is important to cancel the FMR. Of course, people should come. Follow the rules, get paperwork as is done in any international travel. But right now there is no system in place, no checks," Mr Singh told NDTV.

The Chief Minister has said they suspect the involvement of foreign mercenaries in the Manipur violence.

On what the BJP government has been doing to restore full normalcy in Manipur, Mr Singh said, "People in the hills and the valley are themselves trying to restore peace. From the government side also we are trying our best with the guidance of Home Minister Amit Shah. Both sides have been talking and discussions happening through proper channels. I can't disclose everything. Total normalcy will be restored very soon," Mr Singh said, adding the government will give Rs 1 lakh each to all displaced people in 10 days so that they can meet their immediate expenditure.

Mr Singh blamed several successive governments in the past for the current crisis. "Had the leaders back in 1947-49 during the merger given some attention, this problem would not have happened," he told NDTV.

"The border is 398 km long. Some people on both sides of the border share some ethnic ties. Had the fencing been done well decades ago and a pass system developed, the issue of influx would not have grown so big. The Centre in those early years left Manipur on its own. The border is guarded by the Assam Rifles, but they are doing two jobs - guarding the border and carrying out counter-insurgency operations. They are stationed 10-20 km inside from the border. On top of this, there is the Free-Movement Regime (FMR), which allows people from across the border to come for several kilometres without any checks. So think, they are the same tribe, same community, same language, same culture," the Chief Minister said.

"No one ever thought about the indigenous people of Manipur, no one. It is only after Prime Minister Narendra Modi and Home Minister Amit Shah came that we saw development and security in this region. Otherwise, the previous governments - I don't want to say about other states - left Manipur on its own. Whatever is happening now is because of the inaction by the previous governments," Mr Singh said.

Over 180 have died and thousands have been internally displaced in the Manipur violence that began on May 3, 2023.

The Chennai Super Kings star was inducted into the party by the YRS Congress president and Andhra Chief Minister, YS Jagan Mohan Reddy, on December 28, 2023.

Rayudu clarified his position on Sunday, stating that he wanted to be "politically non-affiliated" while playing professional sports and representing a club such as Mumbai Indians.

Rayudu, who aided CSK in their quest for the fifth IPL title in May last year, will return to the Mumbai Indians franchise for the second season of ILT20 after departing them in the Indian Premier League (IPL) in 2017. The ILT20 will take place in three venues in the UAE: Dubai, Abu Dhabi, and Sharjah, between January 19 and February 17.

The former India batter announced his departure from the IPL following his successful run and hinted at his plans to enter politics.

"Don't Attempt To Apply Again": Company's Rude Rejection Email Goes Viral

A rejection email has gone viral on social media for its needlessly rude and aggressive tone. US-based IT company Elite Software Automation sent the email to an applicant who had given a test for the position of Frontend Software Engineer. A screenshot of the mail was shared on the Reddit forum "antiwork", where it left thousands of users shocked. The post, shared on Thursday, has accumulated over 900 Upvotes and hundreds of comments. 

The email begins by thanking the candidate for applying for the position of Frontend Software Engineer. It informs them that their application has been rejected due to their failure to clear the automated online test. The email then goes on to state that the candidate will be blacklisted permanently if they try to apply for the same position before the end of the year or if they write to the company for a second chance. 

"Any repeated attempts to apply for this position again before this time, or any attempts to retake the test will lead to an automated decline of your application, as well as blacklisting of your profile from any further applications," the email read.

Take a look below: 

Whoever received this rejection letter is far better off than being hired by this "Elite..."

The email also mentions that the company does not accept any excuses. "If you were feeling unwell on the day of the test, or if you were rushing, or if your internet went out, or whatever other excuse you may have, it does not matter," it reads. 

The mail also asks the rejected candidate to toughen up. "If you are upset at this email, we have to inform you that life is hard and part of any professional or personal development is dealing with rejection and finding ways to improve," it states.

"You were provided an opportunity to show your abilities in a blind and fair test that is the same for all candidates and that is focused on nothing but skills and abilities. You have failed to score high enough at this test. Instead of blaming us, you should examine what you can do to improve those abilities and skills. Maybe you could use this self-reflection to improve and make your life better," the mail added. 

Since being posted, the screenshot of the mail has attracted largely negative reactions. "That's honestly the hardest rejection letter I've ever seen," wrote one user. "Seriously, this is like a walking red flag, imagine how they treat their actual employees," said another. 

"Jesus Christ, I would make sure to apply again just to make sure I GET blacklisted by this excuse of a company," commented a third. "So companies no longer wait you to be hired to show how toxic they are," expressed a fourth.
