They knew I was very serious about AFCAT. If I clear the afcat ( including interveiws ) , they know I"ll join for sure.
Serving military was one of the major aspirations since childhood and it has never changed ever since. They know I"ll acheive it if I take it serious.
They expect me to be serious for other jobs like PSU etc which unfortunately never happened.
Even tho my post is more related to developing communication system which does not require going to warfront , they say its still risky ( which is right ) .
So yeah , In short they dont want to me join military.
Interveiws are over , all these happened 2 months ago.

I meant to say by lying to others who asked you why you have not given exam and had inquired about that also if clearly then I wanted to say that you should had given AFCAT even your parents were against it and to respect there decision you had the option to decline the job as you said if you had passed it you surely had joined it but you taken the decision to not to give it to make your parents happy again instead you should give it anyways if you are confident to pass then decline the job later to get an achievement in your resume even you would had gotten the benefits to enjoy too if you had leaved the job after training. You are more smarter than me i guess you can understand it also To be honest I am kinda feeling unhappy from the decisions of your when you skips your exams even after fulfilling all requirements and submitting fees like you had done previously too some months ago I am not tounting you in anyway but the conclusion I can see the way you do things are that you donโt trust your own self and believe on your decisions or arenโt confident about things which is really not good see yourself from an other personโs perspective now and improve yourself even see yourself from your parents perspective and find the why they are like that they care about you .

See man , after passing written test ( without parents knowledge ) , I got selected for Interveiw. Interveiw takes place at Mysore ( I didnt mention that earlier my bad ) , So since I am not an employed man , I cannot go there without parents assistance.
And since they are not ready for it , How can I go there. Which led to me giving up in the end.
It doesnt work like that bro atleast from my knowledge. Things like that will work only if you an ex - servicemen which require 10 years of experience in the military. And there might be some perks that I am unaware of.
Well I know why they are over protective. But its too dark to have a rewind. Thats why I dont rebel that much.

Jokes aside, @The_Rising_One you should have gone for the interview man, u could have come here asked us too when the time for interview was left, ainโt no way you are coming after Titanic Sank. Just tell them it was a job interview, would they have known?
Anyways, nothing can be done now. Think about your future family, what would they want not your current family.

You donโt have any friends perhaps? Or other forms of financial support?
I donโt know your situation completely but perhaps I would advise secretly saving money to your own bank account. Do odd jobs or something but keep saving money. Because you parents seem to be hindering you from accomplishing anything in life. Not trying to say this in a bad way, but if finances was what stopped you last time, I would recommend secretly saving money for a rainy day, perhaps an interview.
At least then you will have the freedom to choose. I think you can go for it. If you fail, you will at least know that you tried.

Ah damn, if someone aspires to be in airforce just let them be, everything is risky now a days even driving a bike is risky, I donโt like it at all when parents get overprotective and restrain their kidsโ choices especially which involve their whole future.
Plus you donโt have to blindly listen to whatever they say everytime bro, be gentle but be firm in your stand, even I had to do many thing which my father didnโt want to reach where I am currently and even he knows that I made the right choices for me.

Well , My moms salary is just fine to meet our monthly needs . Getting a new home is now a long term goal now.
Also my parents are quite prideful in nature , they generally dont ask for money.
I got into a company as an intern for 1 year which does give me 15k which will be huge.
It will start from roughly June onwards. I think that can help.
My mom is blessed with some toxic relatives and friends who diss my mom whenever I meet a failure. They will say like my mom raised me like a spoilt child and compare me with their super successful kids. Then she releases all pent up anger upon me.
Thats why I did not let my parents know about afcat. So that even tho if I fail no one will notice.
Mom is neither not ready to give a diplomatic answer to them when I meet a failure nor ready to cut ties with them.
I did that couple of times. I brought a protein powder many months ago without their permission and they sometimes still sees me as a rebellious guy for that.
Things like this happened in a minute ways.

Become a chill guy they just want your well-being you are right your strategy is fine always say yes to them but do whatever you want in private without telling them simple then when they will see you getting successful they will automatically start supporting you 
. You are fire 
which is unstoppable always think you are just better then anyone it doesnโt matter whom they compare you to you are just better become best!

Damn , you worked hard almost got there and now you canโt follow your dreams because of parents concern. Btw you can do it next year too ig, when you will have some money and you can go directly to interview without anyoneโs restriction. Ik itโs hard and saddening that you had to give up but you can still try, right? Or you got other plans or interest?
This reminds me of the time when one relative said you should join army , but my mother said no directly to his idea. So I never tried for NDA exam , but later I got to know people with knock knees usually get rejected and I have knock knees (not very severe, itโs mild). So that denial saved my time and energy.
And as far as I remember you are a specsy ,are specsies allowed in airforce?

If you are looking for combat role in military , you are out with no consideration. But if you are looking for technical role like me then you will be in if it does not affect your mobility.
There will tests in which you will be standing straight and people will be asessing based on that. If you can stand still , walk smooth . It will be fine.
My friend who got into Navy during my Btech days had a thing called blue dot cataract which is heriditary. But since it will not affect her that much , she was appointed ( she took technical role so that also matters )
Yeah but my power is not high as u think. My right eye is perfectly normal and my left eye is 1.5 D. This would probably be an instant rejection if I am looking for aviation but since I am looking for technical role , its fine.
But they do expect me to get it fixed asap since there will be basic aviation training for everyone because they should be adaptable to every situation.

Today felt like a total rollercoaster. It kicked off with an exam for which I hadnโt prepared at all. Honestly, I started studying at 3 AM on the very same day, so the chances of passing are slim. Still, I managed to scribble down something for two hours. Even though I donโt have much hope of clearing it, I tried to move on.
Thereโs something else worth mentioning. A few months ago, one of my dadโs friends introduced him to an astrologer or soothsayer โ someone who claims to predict the future. My dad mentioned me to this person, and I was honestly surprised by how accurate some of the things were. Iโm not usually into astrology or zodiac stuff, but lately, my curiosity has been getting the better of me. So today, I decided to meet this soothsayer myself.
I didnโt know the exact location, just a rough idea based on what my dad told me. My parents werenโt too happy about me going, worried Iโd get caught up in strange rituals or something. Still, curiosity won. I took my bike and headed out, following Google Maps since I wasnโt sure of the way.
I donโt have a phone holder on my bike, so I ended up holding my phone in my left hand while riding, keeping the bike in first gear to avoid gear changes. Along the way, I accidentally bumped into a scooter and got an earful of curses from the rider. I couldnโt stop to argue though, because my phone battery was low and I had to reach the place before it died.
Then came the worst part โ while riding over a big bump, my phone flew out of my hand and landed on the road. A scooter ran right over it. I quickly stopped, picked up my phone, and at first thought it was broken because the display wouldnโt turn on. Disheartened, I decided to just head home. Later, I found out it was just a dead battery. Then a truck which somewhat scratched me on my way to home. Thank God I didnt lose balance.
After charging it, I went for a haircut, then hit the gym after a month-long break, and even managed to squeeze in some meditation โ also after a month. Then brought a phonr holder.
I even applied for a 20k internship and worked on NPTEL course. Strangely, by the end of the day, I found myself laughing uncontrollably like a madman. I donโt know if it was embarrassment from the soothsayer episode, or just my mind enjoying the absurdity of the whole day. Either way, it felt fun like something I weirdly wanted to experience again.
Even tho I failed to meet the soothsayer , I will give a 
in my checklist because I tried.
ALWAYS THANK GOD FOR EVERYTHING

Today began like any other normal day. Yesterday, I ended up waking around 9 PM because of a backlog of sleep from previous days โ but it left me feeling quite refreshed. Getting back to my chores was a little tough since Iโd been undisciplined for a while, but I managed to push through by starting small โ like studying for an hour every three to four hours.
A big personal milestone for me: I stayed off YouTube for two consecutive days. It may seem like a small thing, but for me itโs huge, considering how much I was leaning on it for distraction after missing my AFCAT exam. This feels like a step in the right direction.
At home, my dad was busy cleaning since we were expecting guests โ wealthy relatives visiting for the evening and staying over. We were a bit anxious about whether theyโd adjust to our environment, but thankfully, theyโre quite humble people.
During their visit, one of them remarked that Iโd gained weight since they last saw me โ back when I was in peak shape during my AFCAT prep. It stung a little, but I simply explained it away as the effect of postgrad work pressure. No point blaming anyone else.
The guests had two kids โ one in 8th and one in 5th grade. I was asked to share my room with them. Theyโre hyperactive kids, but it wasnโt a problem for me since I was mischievous too when I was their age. They were supposed to leave early at 4 AM for a temple trip to Mukambika in Karnataka, but I had to stay back because of my exam prep.
The kids were full of energy throughout the night. What felt trivial to me โ like playing Subway Surfers online โ was a huge excitement for them. Their parents usually donโt let them play games, so I downloaded a couple of them, and they went wild with joy.
One uncomfortable thing happened though โ an inappropriate ad popped up during the game, promoting AI girlfriends or something similar. I quickly moved my phone away, but the kids noticed and called it disgusting. I took the opportunity to advise them not to involve themselves in such things, and while they agreed, I made sure to emphasize it again seriously.
By around 2 to 3 AM, I started feeling sleepy, but the elder one kept playing his new favorite game. Around 5 AM, I woke up as they were leaving, and then slept again till about 11 AM.
Now, itโs 11 AM, and Iโm getting ready to start my work and catch up on my pending stuffs.
