@kirubaakaran @dinakaran It's painful to see senior citizens and ppl with small children going through this ordeal. If a person is new to the Airport, they will be absolutely clueless.

[Venkatakrishnan @carvk]

@kirubaakaran @dinakaran They are eternally waiting to open the new pick up area. First, it was the contractors, then the execution, and now the fear of litigation. One does not necessarily have to have a new airport. It’s a question of using the existing one well too.

The moment you land in Chennai Airport, you will experience a Safari ride which even Masai Mara won’t give you.

Once you Land, Find your Bags, then Find the buggy stand. Join the queue. Wait. Watch others also wait. Buggy arrives. Buggy takes you on a scenic tour of the entire airport campus. Finally drops you at the taxi counter.

Then you realise, you have to take an elevator to get your Ola/Uber. Now find the elevator. Elevator fits exactly 4 people and your luggage does not count. Wait for the next one. Reach the taxi stand. Join another queue.

This whole journey will be longer than your actual flight duration.

If India ever ranks its worst airports, Chennai does not just top the list.

Chennai is the list.

அட ராமா!! @RameshOffcl-க்கு எப்படி புரிய வைக்க!!

பக்தர்கள் தங்கும் வசதி, டாய்லட் பாத்ரூம் இதெல்லாம் கட்டவா உங்க துறை!! மீண்டும் ஒரு முறை சொல்கிறேன். இந்து சமய அறநிலையத்துறை வேலை, ஒவ்வொரு கோவிலும் தன் கணக்கு வழக்குகளை சட்டப்படி பேணுகின்றனவா என்பதை மேற்பார்வை பார்ப்பது மட்டுமே!!

பாத்ரூம் கட்டுவது போன்ற வேலைகளை செய்ய இல்லை!!

பக்தர்கள் யாரும் கேட்கவில்லை. கேட்டாலும் கோவிலுக்குள் பாத்ரூம் டாய்லட் எல்லாம் கட்ட இயலாது. அது ஆகம விரோதமான செயல்!!

நீங்க எதுக்கு கேன்சல் பண்ணீங்களோ என்று எனக்கு தெரியாது. அத கேன்சல் பண்ணினதுல சந்தோஷம். ஆனா, அதுக்கு பதிலா இதுக்கு என்று பக்தர்கள் பெயரைச் சொல்லி கோவில் நிர்வாகம் செய்ய நினைப்பது ஆபத்தான விஷயம். சட்டவிரோத விஷயம்.

அரசாக கோவிலுக்கு வரும் பக்தர்களுக்கு கோவிலுக்கு வெளியில் அரசு செலவில் எதையாவது செய்கிறீர்கள் என்றால், அதை பற்றி நான் மூச்சு விடமாட்டேன். அது உங்க இஷ்டம்.

ஆனா கோவில் பணத்தை எடுத்து பக்தர்களுக்கு செலவு செய்ய அரசுக்கு ஒரு உரிமையும் கிடையாது. உங்க எண்ணம் எவ்வளவு நல்லதாக இருந்தாலும் அது சட்ட விரோத செயல்.

உங்க எண்ணத்தை கண்டுபிடிக்கும் அளவுக்கான சக்தி எனக்கில்லை. ஆனா சட்ட விரோத செயலை தெரியும் புத்தி உண்டு.

திருத்திக் கொள்ளவும்.

ஜெய் ஶ்ரீ ராம்!

He is one of the richest people in India — Anand Deshpande. He recently entered the list of billionaires with billion-dollar wealth. He is the founder of Persistent, a multinational software company. The company, which has 53 offices across 18 countries, recently did a ‘Griha Pravesh’ / housewarming at yet another new location.

When you hear “software company”, what comes to mind is usually ‘Western culture’. But Persistent is an exception. See this photo. They entered the new place by performing a Satyanarayan Puja in the traditional Indian/Hindu way. In this company, holidays are given only for Indian festivals — meaning Hindu festivals, and specifically Marathi ones. So the New Year holiday isn’t on 1st January, but definitely on ‘Gudi Padwa’. No holiday for Christmas, but there _is_ a holiday on both days of Ganesh Murti Sthapana and Visarjan.

In Hinjewadi, Pune, the office has 4 towers named after Rigveda, Samaveda, Yajurveda, and Atharvaveda. The 2 towers of the office near Nal Stop are named after ancient Indian scientists Pingala and Aryabhata. The office building on Senapati Bapat Road is named Bhagirath. And inside the buildings, references from the Vedas are displayed on the walls at various places.

Just saying “Hindu culture is great” doesn’t achieve anything. To uphold its greatness, you have to send that message through action — and this company has done that, time and again. I’ve experienced the work culture here closely (I worked there for 2.5 years). Let me tell you a small thing: even though it’s an IT company, the women members here celebrate traditional customs like ‘Haldi-Kumkum’ with great joy. Even Satyanarayan Puja is performed properly. And despite all this, Persistent stands at a completely different peak in the IT sector. Last quarter, revenue was a whopping ₹1,491 crore.

The people working here aren’t called ‘employees’ but ‘members’ of the Persistent family. With over 15,000 members worldwide, this company’s turnover runs into hundreds of crores. We know Ratan Tata for “simple living, high thinking” — but Marathi Anand Deshpande Sir is an equally inspiring personality. (By Deviprasad, an ex- employee of Persistent)

After the brutal first half of June, even a few 10–30 mm thunderstorm spells over parts of Chennai would feel like a major victory. Fingers crossed to see if KTCC gets its first seasonal thunderstorm show tonight. If not today, we have good chances over the next couple of days.

Chidambaram - Parangipettai also on verge of their damal dumeel of the season.

The weak monsoon in Kerala from yesterday opens the door for these leeward-side thunderstorms, whereas a very strong organized monsoon can confine the rainfall to the windward side and Ghat.

Do NOT click on any link or messages from @RichaMishraBL . Her X account has been compromised. She has written to X.

For the past two days I was asking supporters of @annamalai_k, who think I am some enemy, and bark in my timeline consistently without any shame, to explain what is written in @WTLFoundation website, about the "APPROACH" of the foundation.

As expected, not a single soul could explain it.

Looking at it, I know that, the words are not even written by a human but generated by AI. To confirm this I asked @GeminiApp if the text is AI generated and it CONFIRMED that it is, giving 3 key reasons.

Attaching the screenshots of what @GeminiApp said.

So, supporters of @annamalai_k. படிங்கடா! படிங்க!

Jai Shri Ram!!!!

💡So, when is the TVK Vijay govt in Tamilnadu going to provide prosecution sanction for the ED to go after the likes of KN Nehru, Anita Radhakrishnan and Senthil Balaji?

It has been close to 2 weeks since the ED wrote multiple letters to the TN govt since the TVK took over.
