Published by Parlour News

The passing of M.P. Parameswaran has drawn tributes from across Kerala’s political, scientific and cultural spectrum, with colleagues, friends and public figures remembering him as a rare intellectual who demystified science, championed rational thought and inspired generations through his writings and activism. A nuclear scientist by profession, Dr. Parameswaran evolved into one of Kerala’s most influential public intellectuals.

Minister for Youth Affairs and Sports O.J. Janeesh described him as the scientist who made science accessible to the common man. “He played a defining role in nurturing scientific temper among the people and popularising science education.

From ‘delulu’ to ‘FOMO’: After CJP protests on the streets, Gen-Z slang takes over Parliament | India News

Published by Parlour News

3 min readJul 29, 2026 09:32 AM IST The ongoing Monsoon Session of Parliament is a little different this week. One got to hear from politicians a lingo which you would usually expect on Instagram and not in the Lok Sabha. Words like “Delulu,” “FOMO,” and “clocked it” flowed freely.

The change in lingo is not random; it’s a direct response to weeks of Gen-Z-led protests that rattled the government and eventually led to the resignation of Dharmendra Pradhan as the Education  Minister.

The anger over the NEET paper leak and other irregularities in government exams was visible among the youth. This drew thousands, including millenials, to Delhi’s Jantar Mantar …
