Tie + rant: टाई लगाकर जो लोगों पर rant करे (ज़ोर-ज़ोर से डाँटे) और उन्हें दबाए — ‘टाई लगाके जो रेंट करे, वो tyrant’। इसका noun tyranny यानी अत्याचार है।

Split it as TIE + RANT. Picture a ruler in a tie who keeps ranting (shouting angrily) at his people and crushing them — a tyrant. Its noun is tyranny, meaning cruel rule.
