Having followed Khan Sir's career for years, I want to add some important context that many news reports are missing:

First, understand his background: He built his coaching empire from scratch and became incredibly popular for making education accessible to poorer students. His YouTube channel has millions of subscribers and he's known for his charismatic teaching style.

The arrest seems connected to his rapid expansion - as his institutes grew, he acquired more properties, and some of these transactions are now being questioned.

What his supporters are saying: - This is harassment of a successful educator - The cases are politically motivated - The property laws in Bihar are notoriously complex and ambiguous

What critics are saying: - Nobody should be above the law, regardless of their popularity - Proper procedures must be followed for construction and land use - Educational institutions should model legal compliance

The bigger picture: This case raises questions about how successful educators navigate business expansion while maintaining legal compliance. Many coaching institutes in India face similar challenges as they grow from small classrooms to large educational enterprises.

The truth probably lies somewhere in the middle, and we should let the judicial process run its course without rushing to judgment.

Just to share my experience — I accidentally withdrew too, and the recruiter told me to submit a new application because the system had locked the previous one. So if your job posting still shows as “Open,” go ahead and apply again with the same details.

Most companies are understanding about this; it’s a common mistake. 😅

There’s been a lot of confusion online, but as of now, Khan Sir has not been arrested. The rumors started when his name appeared in news reports during the RRB NTPC student protest in 2022. Some claimed he was detained, but that never actually happened.

He later released a video on his YouTube channel clarifying that he supports peaceful protests and condemned the violence. The FIR mentioned his name, but no formal arrest was made.

Great question about plant biology! Meristematic cells are the "stem cells" of plants - they're constantly dividing and haven't yet specialized into specific cell types. The reason they lack vacuoles (or have very small ones) comes down to their function:

  • Division efficiency - Large vacuoles would physically interfere with cell division. During mitosis, the cell needs to duplicate its contents and split - a large central vacuole would get in the way
  • Energy conservation - Maintaining large vacuoles requires energy. Meristematic cells need all their energy for rapid division and growth
  • Flexibility - Without large, rigid vacuoles, the cells remain small and can easily change shape during division
  • Dense cytoplasm - They're packed with organelles and molecules needed for division, leaving little room for vacuoles

Think of it this way: Meristematic cells are like construction workers - they're focused on building and don't carry around the specialized tools (vacuoles) that mature cells need for storage and support. Once they stop dividing and specialize, they develop the large central vacuoles that characterize mature plant cells.

As someone who struggled with ciabatta for years until I learned the proper technique, let me share what finally worked for me:

The key is understanding ciabatta's structure - it has a crisp, fragile crust and a very open, airy crumb with large holes. If you treat it like regular sandwich bread, you'll end up with a squashed mess.

Here's my foolproof method: 1. Position the loaf with the flat side down (most ciabatta has one flatter side) 2. Lightly score the cutting line with the tip of your serrated knife first 3. Use very little downward pressure - imagine you're just guiding the knife 4. Let the serrations do the cutting - slow, rhythmic back-and-forth motion 5. Support the loaf with your other hand but don't squeeze!

For different sandwich types: - Regular sandwiches: 3/4 inch thick slices - Paninis: 1 inch thick slices - Crostini: Diagonal cuts about 1/2 inch thick - Bruschetta: Thick slices (1 inch) cut on extreme diagonal

The game-changer for me was investing in a good quality bread knife - the $20 I spent on a decent serrated knife made more difference than any technique adjustment!

Practice makes perfect - buy an extra loaf to experiment with until you get the feel for it.

Having lived in Jamshedpur for 5 years and used various transport services, here's my take on the best options:

For daily commuting: - Ola/Uber - Reliable and available throughout the city - Auto-rickshaws - Abundant but negotiate fare before riding - Local buses - Jamshedpur Transport Service (JTS) covers most areas

For intercity travel: - Private buses - Multiple operators from Telco Bus Stand - Taxi services - Several local companies offer outstation packages

What I've learned from experience: - For reliability: Ola usually has better driver quality and vehicle condition - For cost: Auto-rickshaws are cheapest for short distances - For convenience: Pre-booked taxis through established companies

My top recommendations based on personal use: 1. Ola Cab for airport drops and important appointments 2. JTS buses for regular office commute (much more affordable) 3. Local auto-rickshaws for quick grocery runs

Important tip: Always check recent reviews on Google Maps before choosing any service - quality can vary significantly between providers in different areas of the city.
