Apparently, a uniform set of laws for all citizens is good for Britain but somehow not for India. A very interesting view from @TheEconomist

[Prasanna Tantri @TantriPrasanna]

Total exports between April and July has crossed 300 billion. Growing double digits and firing on all cylinders. 9 percent real depreciation of the Rupee has started paying off. On course to cross a trillion unless prevented by engineered real appreciation of the Rupee at the cost of future stability. We did this mistake 3 year ago. Exports lead to jobs. Hope we focus only on currency stability and not target levels. Targeting levels ( less than 100) will kill this job and learning machine. We do not have a current account issue. https://t.co/4dKGRYHiFV. @haryannvi @dikshayadav_ we discussed this

This is how Pakistan marks its formation and existence, through the killing of innocent Baloch civilians, including children, and through genocide. Last night, Pakistani forces bombed the town of Gondan in Surab, Balochistan. At least 20 bodies have been recovered from the rubble, while many others remain injured and in need of urgent medical assistance.

The affected area is surrounded by Pakistani forces, restricting access for rescue teams, medical staff, ambulances, and journalists. Blocking humanitarian assistance and independent documentation compounds the grave human rights violations and demands immediate international attention.

I urge journalists, medical teams, humanitarian organizations, and people around the world to demand immediate access to the affected area, ensure medical assistance reaches survivors.

He is the only politician in Indian history who didn't resign from the CM post even after being sent to jail. Just a reminder to everyone.

If stringent laws could deter people (exam leaks for example) there would be no crime. It’s not the law stupid! It is the criminal justice system and its ability and certainty to punish criminals that can deter crime, if at all. So don’t hold your breath that the anti cheating bill will stop exam leaks

[sushant sareen @sushantsareen]

Neither the govt nor the oppn and certainly not the cockroaches have the foggiest idea on how to fix the education system. If their solution is passing a law and forcing a resignation of a feckless minister then we are all so screwed.

[Mohandas Pai @TVMohandasPai]

PM @narendramodi Sir please do see. This too needs reforms. While we need reservations, having a cut off below 60 when General is at _94 is very very wrong. Justice should be done. Yes we can have lower cut off for reserved groups but should it be so low? We will destroy the future of students with such low cut off in a very highly competitive class. We are setting them up for failure. This needs reforms @PMOIndia @AmitShah @republic @CNNnews18 @RShivshankar @ShivAroor @ndtv @sardesairajdeep @navikakumar

A PwC Indian origin employee in Dublin thought he could secretly work from India for weeks.

He lied about his location, denied everything, and even accused his supervisor of bullying.

VPN logs exposed him. EU Court sided with PwC clear contractual requirement to be based in Ireland.

He lost his job and the legal battle. Dismissal was fully justified.

EU on site contracts do not allow working from India by default. You need explicit written permission with proper legal protections, updated contract, and tax compliance.

EU managers rarely micromanage, they trust you. But sneaking off to India while earning euros and pretending you are in Dublin? That’s not smart. That’s career suicide.

One lie destroys trust for everyone. Companies now hesitate to hire Indians for hybrid/on site roles because of such incidents.

Your smart workaround makes the next genuine candidate suffer.

I did worked this year 6 months from India but only after clear written approval from my manager and HR, plus contract update. No drama. No lies. Full transparency.

We as Indian origin need to stop these

Fake location = breach of contract

VPN tricks get caught easily.

Bullying allegations without proof backfire in court.

One bad apple spoils the barrel for lakhs of honest Indian professionals
Lying, faking, and scammer shortcuts are not jugaad they are reputation killers.

Be professional. Communicate openly. Get everything in writing. Respect the contract.

Our talent need more truth then lie. Let’s protect it with honesty for our nation.

Taiwan solved tax evasion in 1951 with a trick so cheap it should embarrass every tax authority on the planet.

The problem was an all-cash economy full of small shops. A merchant pockets the cash, skips the receipt, and the sale never existed. Auditors can't catch what was never recorded, and hiring enough of them to watch every noodle stand costs more than the missing tax.

So finance chief Ren Xianqun flipped the incentive. Print a lottery number on every receipt. Draw winners every two months on live TV. Top prize today: NT$10 million, about $310K.

Suddenly the customer and the shopkeeper want opposite things. The merchant wants the sale off the books. The customer wants the ticket. And there are millions more customers than merchants. Every transaction now carries a built-in witness demanding the paper trail.

Year one, reported tax revenue jumped 75%, from NT$29 million to NT$51 million. Seventy-five years later, roughly 70% of Taiwanese still play. Convenience stores redeem the smallest NT$200 prizes at the register, so even a coffee receipt feels like a scratch card.

The elegant part is what the audit force costs. The prize pool runs about NT$7 billion a year, roughly $20 million. In exchange, the government gets 23 million unpaid auditors working every checkout line in the country, forever. No inspector general on earth delivers that coverage at that price.

Greece, Italy, Portugal, and Slovakia all copied it. The most effective compliance tool ever built looks like a game, and that's exactly why it works.

Not just encroachment removal. We have also started repair of damages to the footpaths to improve walkability. We will spend ₹ 70 CR on repairs to footpaths.

ಕೇವಲ ಒತ್ತುವರಿ ತೆರವುಗೊಳಿಸುವುದಷ್ಟೇ ಅಲ್ಲ. ಪಾದಚಾರಿ ಮಾರ್ಗಗಳಲ್ಲಿರುವ ಹಾ���ಿಗೊಳಗಾದ ಭಾಗಗಳನ್ನು ದುರಸ್ತಿಪಡಿಸುವ ಕೆಲಸವನ್ನೂ ಆರಂಭಿಸಿದ್ದೇವೆ, ಇದರಿಂದ ಜನರು ಸುರಕ್ಷಿತವಾಗಿ ಮತ್ತು ಸುಗಮವಾಗಿ ನಡೆದುಕೊಳ್ಳಲು ಅನುಕೂಲವಾಗುತ್ತದೆ.

��ಾದಚಾರಿ ಮಾರ್ಗಗಳ ದುರಸ್ತಿಗಾಗಿ ₹70 ಕೋಟಿ ವೆಚ್ಚ ಮಾಡಲಾಗುತ್ತಿದೆ.

@harishupadhya It's not just the encroachment by the public. The question is also about open manholes, electricity poles, hanging wires, advertisement banners and more. It is a good initiative to begin with but step by step we have to do more.

🚶 BENGALURU'S FOOTPATHS ARE GETTING THEIR SPACE BACK

From July 1–10, the Greater Bengaluru Authority (GBA) is running a 'Safe Footpath Campaign' across 1,000 km of road network — clearing encroachments from footpaths in all five city corporations.

📊 WHY THIS MATTERS

30% of every 1,000 road accident deaths in Bengaluru are pedestrians. The Supreme Court has been clear: walking on a footpath safely is a fundamental right, not a privilege.

🚫 WHAT'S BEING CLEARED
➡Illegal parking on footpaths (vehicles will be towed)
➡Name boards, chairs, tables, and kiosks blocking pedestrian paths
➡Vendors and shops spilling onto walkways

✅ HOW IT'S BEING DONE
➡Notices will be issued before any action — not a sudden crackdown
➡Action will follow the Street Vendors' Protection Act and SC guidelines
➡Municipal officers, police, and clearance teams will coordinate
➡Damaged slabs and kerbs will be repaired alongside clearance

It follows the #1KmChallenge encouraging people to walk short distances instead of driving — Bengaluru is trying to become more walkable, one footpath at a time.

🗣️ WE NEED YOUR EYES ON THE GROUND

Let's make Bengaluru's footpaths walkable again — together.

Bengaluru's safe footpath campaign has started across several constituencies, with civic authorities clearing encroachments on imp roads to improve pedestrian safety.

Residents have welcomed the move, street vendors have expressed concerns over the impact on their livelihoods
