The hate speech by politicians in India is creating so much hatered in society. All political parties are involved in this dirty business. So I request government to pass a law that will stop all dirty politicians to make any controversial statement. This is for 'Ease of Living.'

E-commerce companies in India selling faulty products online. When a consumer files a complaint on National Consumer Helpline, they do not help consumer at all and acts in favor of E-commerce companies. So I request you to trash National Consumer Helpline permanently and set up a new and honest government agency who will really help consumers in India. This suggestion is for 'Ease of Living.'

Sir, These days, people globally have been doing anything & everything in name of yoga..... Request you to very categorically claim that yog & sadhna is the contribution of Sanatan Dharma and there is strict form and discipline around it... For more than 1,000 yrs, these "so called religions" or Cults completely decimated original habitats & cultures & did cultural appropriation or genocides & they won't hesitate to do same to Yog & Sadhna as well. They shamelessly patented basmati & haldi even in modern age. Therefore, do not give any gap/space to them due to lack of ownership for Yog & Sadhna. Otherwise, gradually they would either claim it originated in their fantasy /gossips/Sky books or make it sound very superficial & useless. Kindly be clear that yog is about physical and mental health and it increases the potential to do sadhna and sustain kundlini awakening and also all other absurd versions that west etc are doing are unproven, unhealthy and not part of yog sadhna..
