@smitaprakash The darker khaki uniform is UP Police, while the lighter one is Delhi Police. You can also tell by their reactions, but there you go that’s the clarification.
@vyomafc@hindutva_anshu Not everything revolves around Muslims. And if people across the world are increasingly talking about them, perhaps some introspection is warranted about why this hostility exists.
Nobody seems to have a problem with Jains, Buddhists, or many others.
@kanpursneed Drove around Gorakhpur and Kushinagar yesterday, and one thought stuck with me:
If someone takes a drone shot of these areas right now, people will fall in love with the natural beauty of UP. 🌿
Lush green trees, temporary lakes formed by heavy rains, overflowing rivers…
Travelling through remote eastern UP. This is the speed I’m getting on Jio 5G. Airtel will be in the same range.
Genuinely curious what extra Starlink brings here. Cheaper plans? Faster than this? And who actually needs faster than this?
@elonmusk@JioCare#IndianMarket
@pnqiad The market!
Ban Meta, Google, and the rest from the Indian market and watch how quickly they fold. Capitalism is their religion, and India is a massive market.
Maybe years from now, this period will have a name of its own.
Capital outflows. Geopolitics. Trade. Technology. Starlink.
UPSC aspirants, bookmark this. You might be reading about it in your textbooks someday. 💀

We might be watching an important chapter of economic history unfold in real time without even realising it.
Record FII outflows, a battered Indian market, trade and geopolitical tensions, pressure on the IT sector, and now the @elonmusk – Starlink tantrum.

Think about the events we now casually refer to as:
Taper Tantrum.
Dot-com Bubble.
Lehman Collapse.
At the time, they were just a series of events, decisions and market moves. It was only later that we understood how significant that period really was.

AP’s regional parties are more focused on getting development and resources for their state than climbing the political ladder to Delhi.
Regional politics, but with a very clear priority: Andhra first.
@ysjagan@ncbn
@kanpuriyaabhau@UPGovt There are plenty of valid things to criticise, but this isn’t one of them. Both are barely ~100 km apart. Building a tech hub in Lucknow doesn’t mean ignoring Kanpur. A stronger Lucknow–Kanpur corridor benefits both.
Not every development decision is a city-vs-city competition.
@IASassociation Bro, look at comments like these and take some action. Not against the people making these comments but within yourself. 😂
I propose 5 years of work ex as an eligibility for IAS/IPS. Maybe some real-world exposure before running the real world wouldn’t hurt.
IAS-IPS अधिकारियो�� के लिए दिल में जो इज़्ज़त हुआ करती थी, वो अब खत्म हो रही है। ये जैसे-तैसे ग्रेजुएट होकर कोचिंग ज्वॉइन करते हैं। एक निर्धारित सिलेबस का रट्टा मारते हुए ��्वॉलिफाई करते हैं।
इन्होंने न एथिक्स पढ़ा, न इनमें तमीज़ है, ना ही समाज का कोई व्यवहारिक ज्ञान है। 5-5 साल तक 10×10 के कमरे में किताबी कीड़ा बन के रहने वाले ये लोग जब सिस्टम में आते हैं तब सबसे ज्यादा चोरी करते हैं। सबसे ज्यादा भ्रष्टाचार करते हैं। सबसे ज्यादा अन्याय करते हैं।
इन सत्ता के दलालों को शर्म आनी चाहिए।
@Akshat_World NVIDIA obviously isn’t the bubble here. It sells hardware with real demand, revenue and earnings.
The real bubble question is the AI companies being valued at $500–1,000B+ where you’re paying enormous valuations for expectations of future earnings.
