What's the process of Election for president in India?

The President of India is elected indirectly by an electoral college comprised of elected members of both houses of parliament, elected members of the legislative assemblies of the 28 states, and elected members of the legislative assemblies of the union territories of Delhi, Puducherry, and Jammu and Kashmir. As of 2022, the electoral college consists of 776 MPs and 4,123 MLAs.

The system gives these electoral college members varied numbers of votes such that the overall weight of MPs and MLAs is about equal and the voting power of states and territories is proportionate to their population. Overall, 1,098,903 votes were cast by members of the electoral college, yielding a majority of 549,452 votes.

Lakshadweep, Union territory, India: Lakshadweep is a tropical archipelago of 36 atolls and coral reefs in the Laccadive Sea, off the coast of Kerala, India. Not all of the islands are inhabited, and only a few are open to visitors (permits required). Kavaratti, one of the more developed islands, is home to dozens of mosques, including the ornately decorated Ujra Mosque, as well as the Kavaratti Aquarium, showcasing regional fish, shark, and coral species.

"It's another day without a deal for the City of Yellowknife and its striking employees, and the unions for those workers say they don't plan on heading back to the bargaining table unless the city changes its tune on wages.

Just before 1 p.m. Tuesday, the Union of Northern Workers and Public Service Alliance of Canada North released a joint statement that they had once again failed to reach an agreement with the city.

The unions said their bargaining team presented the city with two more proposals in the past week, but the city refused to move on its offered wage increase.

Until that increase is on the table for discussion, "coming back to the table is pointless," the unions said.

"Hearing that the City is unwilling to move on wages, we did not think it would be fair to sit in a warm room knowing that it was all pointless. Today we will be out walking the picket line with our co-workers in the freezing cold," stated Reilly Hinchey, the president of UNW Local 345, in the statement.

This comes after the City of Yellowknife released its own statement Monday evening claiming the union walked away from negotiations at 6 p.m. that day without responding to the city's latest offer.

The city said that offer included base wage increases of two per cent for each of 2022 and 2023, as well as a one-time inflation adjustment and payment of $1,500 for full-time employees, $750 for part-time and seasonal employees and $250 for casual employees, among other benefits.

The strike affects about 205 employees, according to the city. Last week, CBC reported the unions were asking for a five per cent wage increase for 2022 and three per cent for 2023."

I saw a post about racist Jasper stans bitching bc they’re not able to enjoy shitty J*sper content bc of tags or whatever lol and someone said: “What is there even to enjoy?”. I had to laugh and I thought if you bc it’s so true. Most Jasper content isn’t even that enjoyable. It’s mostly the same boring white-supremacist garbage that I’ve seen before; even the jalice stuff is played out.

The only J*sper content I enjoy is content where he is worshipping Maria, thinking about Maria, talking about Maria, loving Maria, doing anything for Maria tbh. Is that bad? XD I owe it to you and your writing! idk something about a 19/20 year old dumbass confederate falling madly in love with a native brown woman and literally seeing her as a god-like figure as she’s basically handing him his karma for his racist crimes sends me. Ppl act like he was this awesome person before Maria and that it’s her fault he’s gutter trash now with the C*llens but he was gutter trash BEFORE he met Maria. She honestly made him so much better, stronger and MUCH more interesting. She literally created the man these stans thirst over so much. She is the blueprint.

the thing anti-María Jalice stans don't get is, without María, you do not have Jasper. for everything Jasper is, María is the catalyst ❤️

canonically, all we know about Jasper Hale pre-change is 1) he was born in Texas, 2) faked his age to join the Confederate Army* where he became the youngest major in Texas, & 3) was persuasive

beyond that, María made Jasper into the man the fandom adores. you like that he's an empath? guess whose venom made him one. you like that he's a warmonger? guess whose war he fought for. you like that he has a troubled past? guess who put the trouble in it. you like that he's "soft" "empath" "baby" (tbh i don't see it but ok)? guess who made him want to be that way. you like that he's submissive to Alice? guess who broke him in first.

you want Jasper with Alice but wish the María era didn't exist? lol just say you want the hot faceless Confederate to get with the psychic Mississippian & go

as for me, MARÍA ALL DAY BAYBEEEEE

here we have a woman who has suffered all her life at the hands of colonizers. born "1800s or earlier," we can suppose she has firsthand experience with colonization (at least Napoleon's invasion) & lived through Mexico's War of Independence. i.e., she has a deep familiarity with what it means to have your way of life ripped from you by invaders. PLUS she was a victim of Benito's army in the Southern Vampire Wars; her entire coven including her mate was killed.

& despite her losses, she rallied to take back her land & drive out her oppressors. baseline, she is a strong, cunning, powerful indigenous woman with a deep love for her community and her people. HOT

now let's look at Jasper, a bright leader in the Civil War who suffered defeat at the hands of the Union army. yes, María changed him. but did she force him to stay? to go to war? the newborn vamp with the strength & speed to overcome a "grown" vamp chose not to do so. the empath with the power to make anyone disregard him chose not to use it. some say María was "abusive" & "manipulative," but few acknowledge that Jasper had a choice.

why didn't Jasper leave? because he's submissive to anyone more powerful than him. because he was a loser. because the Southern Vampire Wars gave him a second chance at victory. because "empath" or no, he wanted to play war & win.

that's what's compelling about Jasper/María. as wrong as Jasper was for fighting for the Confederacy, he believed he was fighting for the same thing as she. he saw his way of life destroyed by "invaders" & fought back. it's a sick & twisted parallel between oppressor & oppressed that becomes subverted as their relationship goes on... & one that can heal them both.

María's experience with colonizers gives her a visceral picture of what it means to be oppressed... but her relationship with Jasper gives her the victory & emotional reflection she needs to move on. Jasper's military training gives him the hunger & knowledge for war... but his "curse" of empathy provides him with the tools he needs to recognize & address the horrors of his problematic past & move on.

tbh, i find Jasper & María are perfectly suited for a delicious character-driven narrative. Maria's story is that of a traumatized indigenous woman on a path from colonization to decolonization, & the sacrifices & destruction she endures realize that vision. Jasper's story is that of a troubled man on the path from self-hate to self-love, & what it means to undo the societal teachings/traumas & forge a life of empathy & forgiveness.

& that is something Alice alone can never give Jasper.

tl;dr all hail Queen María

“Celebrities are showing off their Starbucks cups to signal their support for Israel!!!” okay why wouldn’t they show off a brand with, like, actual financial ties to Israel. why aren’t they getting spotted with Sodastream or something.

#some of you crossed over into antisemitic territory #once again: Starbucks has not done business with or in Israel for over 20 years #I don’t deny that *Starbucks* could be trying to do damage control for suing the union #but that’s very much PR for *Starbucks* not Israel #Starbucks #antisemitism tw
