Fake Internship Scam

Recently, while scrolling down LinkedIn, I have seen many people jotting about fake internship programs making people work full-time without pay or with a very small amount of stipend.  These scams are very normal and have been running for a very long time. They are being highlighted now as there are many true companies that hire you for full-time and pay less but give you lots of experience, and on the other hand, now people have started to fake these jobs and internship offers. They hire and make you work for their profit and either pay you or keep the terms and conditions, such as for a certificate + learning, and highlight the feature that you will be able to add this to your CV. But this sort of term and condition makes you work worse than a daily wage worker. These sorts of internships or part-time work with less or no pay are a type of hindrance to the right to pay for work.  As one of these scams happened to me while I was in college, I applied for digital marketing, a...

Rising Price in fees of Nursery Kids

In the current educational landscape, schools, which should primarily serve as institutions for learning, understanding, and social development, have increasingly morphed into businesses. This shift has led to exorbitant tuition fees, beginning at the nursery level, with costs nearing lakhs for just a few months of education and approximately 5 lakhs for an entire year. These rising fees have ignited discussions among parents regarding the feasibility of sending their children to school. As education is a fundamental requirement, many families find themselves struggling to save money due to the financial burden imposed by these high expenses. This economic pressure has compelled some parents to reconsider their family planning decisions, with some opting against having a second child, fearing they may not be able to meet the essential schooling expenses. Additionally, schools impose extra charges for various activities, such as annual functions, further adding to the financial strain t...

CHIRAIYA (Jio Hotstar Series)

One of the most honest and realistic shows I've ever seen. The series is more of a real-life tale that always occurs in a person's daily life than a real-life story build-up. Despite showing the family and men's level of education, the series captures the spirit of patriarchy in society. The show begins with a family that is incredibly kind, sympathetic, and respectful, but it gradually depicts how a chameleon changes its color; the same is true with the headmen of the household, and it doesn't stop there. It also emphasizes how crucial it is for all women to be aware of their rights and understand their concerns. The most important things in any family are consent , respect, and feelings. When Pooja marries Arun in this series, he believes that he has some sort of ownership rights to her body. He repeatedly attempts to prove this with marital rape, which they believe is normal in married life even when the woman is not ready to be in the situation. However, these k...

Gender Equality in Daily life is necessary

Equality is not a women's issue; it's a human issue. Equality begins when we start not to compare boys and girls on everyday tasks and stop telling girls to adjust to boys and lead a life ahead. Every girl deserves their choice and their way of living life, which is also granted in our constitution but is not taken very seriously, as women are compelled to follow the instruction and way of life according to the parents before marriage and according to the in-laws and husband and kids after marriage. Gender equality does not only exist for males and females; it also calls for a stand for LGBTQ , which is not considered a gender yet but is yet defined in gender roles . We can also see this in forms of school, colleges, workplaces, and other places. Despite all the measures, gender equality still remains a daily battle, and it does not finish just in laws, but it also reflects how we think, behave, and live in a society, considering all the societal norms and equality and not cr...
