Rahul Gandhi will never attack Nitin Gadkari despite knowing that his sons run an ethanol company whose revenue went from 18 crore to 723 crore in a year, but ill tell you exactly why in a bit.

Gadkari sir is rooting for ethanol blending since 10 years now, this policy literally converts each sugar mill into an ethanol factory.

But who owns the sugar mills of India?

In Maharashtra alone, 104 out of 207 mills are private, and almost every single one is owned by a politician.

Sharad Pawar's late nephew Ajit Pawar controls 6 mills with 58,000 TCD capacity, the biggest sugar baron in the country.

The Vilasrao Deshmukh family runs 10 mills through Manjara Group.

Vijaysinh Mohite Patil, Jayant Patil, Vishwajeet Kadam, the entire Maharashtra Congress and NCP leadership runs sugar empires.

In Karnataka, 33 of 34 private mills are owned by politicians. The Jarkiholi brothers, M B Patil, Murugesh Nirani, Prabhakar Kore, S Shivashankarappa, all Congress, all sugar barons.

Now do you see the problem yet? When ethanol blending goes from 5% to 20%, every single one of these politician-owned mills makes crores in extra revenue.

Gadkari's sons made 700 crore. But the Pawars, the Deshmukhs, the Patils, the Jarkiholis, they ALL made their cut.

The worst part is that these mills dont even pay their bills

The Swabhimani Shetkari Sanghtana estimates that of ~180 defaulting mills in Maharashtra, 77 are linked to BJP, 53 to NCP, 43 to Congress and the rest to Shiv Sena leaders

Inko kuch nahi kehna hai, kyunki sab ek hi dhandhe mein hain.

This is not a Gadkari problem. This is a sugar lobby problem that runs across every party. The opposition cannot attack the ethanol policy because their own MLAs would be the next target.

The moment Rahul attacks ethanol, his own MLAs become the next headline.

Indians are busy fighting tu leftist mai rashtravadi but only the smart ones know the real game.

Be smart and get prepared for 100% ethanol, a world without diesel.

@HelpdeskMCA21V3 Got to the customer support over call( after 3 calls and 30 minutes). They say this is an ongoing issue. with no specific timeline for resolution.

[Akshay surana @Esoteric1988]

@MCA21India Have been handling the sale of an Indian company to a Major Egyptian telecom provider. Over the past three days I have been trying to register the directors on the MCA. No otp's are being delivered to either the Indian numbers or foreign numbers. Sad state of affairs

Maybe we need to re-evaluate how contracts for creation and management of portals are awarded. Penalize the IT servie provider for downtimes and glitches. I mean there has to be some way and working days are not called Indian working days. @FinMinIndia

[Akshay surana @Esoteric1988]

@PMOIndia talks about ease of doing business. But our compliance portals are one of the worst in the world with regular glitches and downtimes.Why can't we build decent IT infrastructure.

[Akshay surana @Esoteric1988]

The GST portal was a mess in the initial years.The Incoem tax portal was beta tested by users for two years, reporting glitches one at a time and seeking resolutions. MCA portal is one of thr worst in terms of glitches to the extent that of routine filing.

[Akshay surana @Esoteric1988]

@CommissionrGHMC A 300% increase in renewal fees at GHMC sporting complexes, introduced without consultation or communication, is unacceptable. Sports infrastructure should encourage participation, not price out players. GHMC must explain and reconsider this decision.

Facing an imposing supreme court bench, Senior Advocate @jsaideepak takes us on an incredible journey in constitutional law to bolster his case for overturning Sabarimala judgment. He is fighting ferociously for dharma, armed with nothing but his intellect.

Watch, and be amazed:

[Shefali Vaidya. 🇮🇳 @ShefVaidya]

Many idi0ts, and sadly, most of them Hindu by name are spreading the canard that the campaign against @Lenskart_com is about forcing all their employees to wear bindi/tilak. I don’t even know how to respond to this stupidity, but I will.

The campaign is about correcting the systematic discrimination done by Lenskart against Hindu employees. No one is forcing any Lenskart employee to wear a bindi/tilak, but if a Hindu employee wants to wear bindi/tilak/kalawa to work, it is their right to do so, especially when Lenskart gave their Muslim employees the right to wear hijab. It is also about the pathetic lies of @peyushbansal #AntiHinduLenskart

[Think Profit @thethinkprofit]

The Lenskart Cover-Up
A $5.6 billion company. A written policy. Two fired employees. A CEO whose story kept changing.

Lenskart — India's largest eyewear retailer, IPO-bound, valued at $5.6 billion — had a Style Guide for store staff. It surfaced on April 15.
The rules: No bindi. No tilak. No kalawa. Minimal sindoor, not on the forehead.
The hijab? Explicitly permitted. With colour instructions. And tutorial videos promised to staff.

When the document went viral, CEO Peyush Bansal called it "inaccurate." X's Community Note corrected him — the document was company-branded, dated February 2026. He then shifted: it was an "outdated training document" with an "incorrect line" that was "discovered and removed on February 17, well before this became public."
That story collapsed within 24 hours.

Akash Falake, a Lenskart store manager in Pune, had emails. He had flagged the exact same policy to Lenskart HR in writing on November 25, 2025. Senior HR was informed again on December 8. Through January and February 2026, store audits were actively cutting salaries of employees who wore bindis or tikas.
Falake escalated to the legal team. No response. On February 20, he filed a complaint on Maharashtra's government grievance portal.
The same day — he was terminated.

Then came Zeel Soghasia from Surat. Got a Lenskart job offer. Flew to Navi Mumbai for training. Day one: told to cut his shikha, remove his tilak and religious tattoos — or there would be no job.
He refused. Fired the next day.
This was April 18, 2026 — sixty days after Bansal claimed the policy had been removed.

Two employees raised this internally over five months. Both were ignored. One was fired the day he went to the government. One was fired for refusing to alter a religious symbol on his body.
The CEO's story changed three times. Each time, new evidence forced the shift.
This is how institutional discrimination works in the modern Indian workplace — not through speeches, but through audit deductions, grooming guides, and termination letters. Systems designed to be absorbed quietly.

It almost worked. Until someone leaked a PDF.

As usual, an article in The Print has appeared filled with factual errors, half-truths, and distortions about Ayyappa worship, with little evidence of any real understanding of its historical background.

Here is a detailed rebuttal intended to set out the factual position clearly and correct the record. Please read and share.

Today, India takes a defining step in its civil nuclear journey, advancing the second stage of its nuclear programme.

The indigenously designed and built Prototype Fast Breeder Reactor at Kalpakkam has attained criticality.

This advanced reactor, capable of producing more fuel than it consumes, reflects the depth of our scientific capability and the strength of our engineering enterprise. It is a decisive step towards harnessing our vast thorium reserves in the third stage of the programme.

A proud moment for India. Congratulations to our scientists and engineers.

Let me clarify before people panic.

India’s strategic reserve is emergency crude oil stored by Indian Strategic Petroleum Reserves Limited

It holds about 9–10 days of India’s total oil demand

Is that all India has? No. Not even close. This is just a BACKUP for crisis.

Most of India’s fuel sits with companies like @IndianOilcl @BPCLimited @HPCL

These commercial stocks cover roughly 60–70 days of demand

They include both crude oil and refined fuels like petrol and diesel

India also has oil on ships coming in, adding another 10–20 days of supply

Depot oil simply means refined fuel stored at terminals and depots across the country

It is part of commercial stocks, not a separate category

Simple way to see it: SPR is emergency stock, commercial stocks run the country daily, and ships keep the supply coming

@OfficialSBICare That point doesnot address PPF account of a minor.Can you please provide clarity if a Minor's PAN card is needed to open a PPF account for a minor.

[Akshay surana @Esoteric1988]

@TheOfficialSBI
is pan card of minor mandatory for ppf account of minor?

[Akshay surana @Esoteric1988]

@hydcitypolice you should look at cases like these.This can be dangerous and at the same time hoarding will lead to artifical shortage.

[Iceland Cricket @icelandcricket]

Dear @ICC,

We wish to take this opportunity to thank you for the recent T20 World Cup, a global cricketing spectacle on a scale unlike any other in past years. It was so good that several nations decided not to leave upon their tournament exit, and it appears they might never do so.

As for us, the tournament brought drama and infamy. We staked our claim to replace the forfeiting Pakistan, then realised the harsh economic and logistical realities of international sport. Colombo is not Reykjavík, in so many ways. Then we had the unforfeiture of Pakistan, an event that actually vindicated our 'stay-at-home, fire it out online' strategy. They knew their plan and played it like a fish.

Let's not forget the actual cricket. The associate nations nearly caused several shocks - both Nepal, Netherlands, and Italy all coming within a whisker of a win over the big boys. Then there was the classic match between Afghanistan and South Africa, which was so good they did the Super Over twice.

At the end of the day, it was India's tournament to host and they delivered, blasting more than 500 runs across the semis and final. They brought the fire. We watched and tried to learn, but lava bedded wickets are not quite the same. Conquering Iceland remains the ultimate litmus test of a batter.

We count the statistics and arrive at an aggregate count of 245 posts by us on X and 3,420 loaves of bread baked by our captain, Dushan Bandara, across the tournament as a whole. Our Chairman, a ship captain, steered all voyages safely into harbour.

And finally, the world famous Íslensk Premier League (ÍPL) is now only two months away, the T20 franchise tournament with a sub-Arctic twist. We wait patiently and keep our keyboards warm.

Yours sincerely,

Icelandic Cricket Association
