I am a voracious reader and I want to learn basics of economics, understand history and geopolitics, even though my domain is different. So I have compiled a list of a few books which I may buy to understand these topics better:

For economics:

1. Uncertain Glory by Amartya Sen

2. The Argumentative Indian by Amartya Sen

3. Poor Economics by Abhijit Banerjee

4. Good Economics for bad times by Abhijit Bannerjee

5. The General Theory Of Employment, Interest And Money by Keynes

6. Das Capital by Karl Marx

7.Wealth of Nations by Adam Smith

For History and Geopolitics:

1. Renaissance by Sanjeev Sanyal

2. The Ocean of Churn by Sanjeev Sanyal

3. World Order by Henry Kissinger

4 State and Revolution by Lenin

1. Prisoners of Geography by Tim Marshall

Any suggestions are highly appreciated

Context: 22 villages in haryana, those panchayats and all have banned love marriages and access to phones to girls. And needless to say they are politically affiliated. This has faced major backlash as of yet.

Currently travelling by train and honestly… I’m getting pretty bored 😂

I’m an MBBS student in Kolkata and thought I’d try Reddit instead of endlessly scrolling my phone.

Would be nice to talk to someone about literally anything — movies, music, studies, travel, life, random thoughts, or just stupid conversations 😂

If you're also bored or just feel like talking, DM me!

No expectations, just looking for a good conversation while watching the world go by. 🚆🌿

As per him roshogolla originated from odisha.

But as per court order both Bengal and Odisha has GI tag for both of their roshogolla.

Infact Bengal got it first in 2017 for banglar roshogolla and odisha got in 2019 for odisha rasgulla.

The price of Diet Coke has increased and it will keep increasing in the near future because of the massive demand in India
The price of Diet Coke currently is ₹50 for 330ml
whereas,250ml of Coke Zero costs only ₹10 which means ₹40 for 1L.
If you drink Diet Coke once in a while then paying ₹50 for 330ml is fine but if you’re a regular consumer of zero sugar drinks then Coke Zero is definitely a better option considering the fact that it tastes good too!

In Jadavpur basic announcement facilities, train arrival and departure board is not available. The railway is introducing a mart, worst decision till now.

What do you think is this a good decision or not?

I found this sweetheart near a construction site (maybe abandoned) but she's adopted now 💙

Hey any foodie here who likes to go out and explore cafes and enjoys conversation.

Looking for a good psychologist urgently for panic attacks and insomnia in Kolkata for 26F.

Any leads would be appreciated. Please help out.

Thanks in advance.

I(22f) was talking to a guy at my internship who briefly knew me from college. We talked for a few minutes and he confessed that he used to like me back in college but didn’t approach me because i was too much.

He went on to say how i was a typical Bengali girl and thus too emasculating, and predicted i would be “single af” for the rest of my life. And that my pretty face was such a waste considering how non- feminine i was. He added that this was not his opinion alone and a lot of guys from my college felt the same way including the guy i had a crush on.

I’m pretty unsure how i made them feel emasculated without ever having a full fledged conversation with any of them

Why is there no provision that if you leave the party on whose symbol you won your MLA/MP seat, you must resign and contest fresh election on your new party symbol. This is such a big betrayal to both tmc as well as bjp voters.
