In Indian government offices, 'Jankari' is often something you have to 'prapt' (attain) through persistence. The phrase is central to the 'Right to Information' (RTI) movement. Indian students are encouraged to be 'Jigyasu' (curious). 'Jankari prapt karna' is seen as the first step toward 'Gyan' (wisdom). On platforms like WhatsApp, 'Jankari' is shared rapidly. People often warn others to 'sahi jankari prapt karein' (obtain correct information) to avoid fake news. Hosts feel it is their duty to provide all 'jankari' to guests about the local area or food to ensure their comfort.
