This story is about 90's. We used to live in a small locality. We had Muslim neighbours. Ali uncle was my father's friend. When my mother was pregnant she had an emergency and my father was out of town. Ali uncle took out his FIAT, and drove along with his wife drove her..

You don’t need an explanation, the contrast is obvious. 🙂
Who is funding this #Nicobar campaign? Too many coordinated tweets/videos from ‘influencers’ on Insta and of course, @RahulGandhi. This is like #CAA protests, version 2
@rishibagree And @AKPPL_Official@atul_kulkarni and Rang De Basanti team reached at the spot to support Medha Patkar. Thats why I fear the ideology of our movie actors. Movie Promotion ke liye kuch bhi ,pata wata kuch ho na ho.
The Great Nicobar Island Project.
China, Pakistan, and Rahul Gandhi are against it. Indian Armed Forces, National Green Tribunal, and Narendra Modi are for it.
India diversified its crude import from a handfull of sources to 41 from around the globe . Incrementally Increasing its renewable energy and steadily heading towards achieving total sufficiency throughThorium based nuclear energy .
Its becoming a producer instead of just a buyer cum consumer.
Its turning from Arms importer to Arms exporter.
Advancing in tech it has caught up in most of the fields with the top few .
It maintains its strategic friendship with Russia ,
Continues trade relations and LAC negotiations with China , provides place to Tibet Govt in Exile and maintains relationship with USA on equal footing .
Now the rest of the World has seen and acknowledged that it is India which has truly turned the World into a Multipolar World by its indispensibility .
Perhaps one of the most heartening announcements to have come out in recent times is @narendramodi's push for nuclear. India's goal of 500 GW clean power cannot be realised without it.
A single nuclear plant powers 700,000 homes while emitting less CO₂ than a hybrid car.
Climate Change is real. But activism must be rescued from the talons of the loony Left.
1. (Nuclear plants) and Nuclear power as share of total power consumed:
France (58): 71.7%
Sweden (8): 40.3%
Switzerland (5): 37.7%
USA (99): 19.3%
Russia (37): 17.9%
India (22): 3.0%.
3.0% is pitiful. We must make it 15% by 2030.
2. Power generation is the single largest contributor (~30%) to global emissions. Nuclear power as share of total power consumed:
France: 71.7%
India: 3.0%
Carbon footprint as share of total world footprint: France: 1% (292 MMT)
India: 7% (2076 MMT)
It's a no contest. A push for developed India is incomplete without a push for nuclear.
Manager: All employees will be required to return to the office five days a week.
Employee: All employees?
Manager: Correct.
Employee: Will meetings only be in person moving forward?
Manager: They will still be virtual.
Employee: So you want us to go back to the office to do the same things we are currently doing from home?
Manager: You will be working in the office.
Employee: But we’ll still be in virtual meetings all day?
Manager: Yes, as we need to connect with teams, clients, and other locations.
Employee: But we can’t continue doing this from home?
Manager: No. Company culture is very important.
Employee: Are there enough private meeting spaces to take all these virtual calls? Does the office even have enough desks for everyone?
Manager: We will be sharing workspaces to accommodate the numbers. You will need to pack up when you take your lunch so others can use the spaces when they’re vacant.
Employee: Great.
Manager: I look forward to seeing you back in person.
Spend a few days in any Tier 2 town and you’ll notice a pattern.
E-rickshaws everywhere. Lined up outside stations, schools and markets.
New cafes are opening every month. Food carts stretch along footpaths by evening. Momos, burgers, tea stalls, shawarma, juice counters. “Grand Opening” boards hanging next to another shop that shut last week.
These are low-entry businesses where you don’t need a resume or HR approval.
You only need some borrowed money, a small space or vehicle, and the urgency to earn.
When the organised system doesn’t create enough jobs, the informal market absorbs people. Driving. Selling. Cooking. Delivering. It becomes the safety net.
You can see the impact on the town's physical appearance.
Carts spill onto footpaths. Public roads shrink as stalls extend outward. E-rickshaws crowd every junction, parked without order, waiting for the same few passengers. Traffic feels messy. Walking feels like negotiation.
Most of these businesses are not built on deep passion. Instead, they are built out of necessity to make this month’s income, pay rent, and run the household.
When you start a cafe because you love coffee, you think about beans, repeat customers, consistency, and ambience.
When you start, because you need cash flow, you think about today’s sales.
That’s why many food outlets struggle. Taste becomes inconsistent. Hygiene slips. Differentiation is weak. Margins are thin, and competition is next door. Within a year, shutters come down.
Now imagine if manufacturing shifts to these towns at scale, with skilled jobs and steady salaries. Or imagine India doubling down on tourism and eco-tourism in these regions. Proper homestays. Trek circuits. River walks. Professionally trained local guides. Craft markets. Farm stays. Cultural tours.
The same young man driving an e-rickshaw could work in a plant with predictable income.
The food cart owner could run a licensed local cuisine stall for tourists who value authenticity and pay for quality.
The cafe could serve travelers looking for a regional experience, not copied menus.
When income becomes skill-based and stable, public spaces become more organized. Businesses think beyond survival. Standards improve. Cities look different.
Right now, we’re seeing volume growth. More vehicles. More stalls. More boards. The shift will come when we see quality growth.
Until then, the streets will continue to reflect the gap between aspiration and structure.

Dhurandhar is technically good cinema, but it is also pure, unadulterated, and unacceptable propaganda. You don't need to see the full 3.4-hour film to conclude that. I haven't. Now you have to hear me out before you go out to watch this piece of gratuitous gore wrapped in a spy thriller cover.
Aditya Dhar is an insidious bigot, proven by his deliberate choice to show Pakistan in a poor light. He could have chosen Mauritius, which has beaches where the lady spy could prance in a bikini. But no, he chose the lovely Lyari in Karachi. Do we not have kachchi aabadi in India?
My bigotry of low expectations is so profound that I patronisingly conflate 25 crore Indian Muslims with Pakistan, and by extension, Islam, and therefore, I cannot endorse this 'Islamophobia.'
I must offer my disservice now by preemptively attributing motives to Dhar and questioning the existence of any cinema, however well-made, that my indoctrinated intellect can't easily process.
I haven't seen the film, and I hope I don't like it when I do. My review will follow, but for now, know this: This is not my India. This is not my Bollywood.
Dear YRF, only your spy universe can salvage what is left of our nice little insulated universe. Please show an Indian spy making love with a terrorist-spy who has vowed a thousand cuts on India. Make love, not war. Peace and out. ♥️☮️♥️
I expect all like-minded global citizens to believe me and support me as I raise the heat in a already hot and fractured society. I will not allow Aditya Dhar to damage the fabric the threads of which I have been pulling so carefully as I pull the wool over your eyes.
Wait for my review where I will condemn the chutzpah of Dhar and pan his big outing after watching the film. Also, Yami shouldn't have married this man. She is a bigot too. Deepika shouldn't have married the nutcase who looks brilliant as the protagonist. She is a bigot too. Compromised by JP Nadda with a brand ambassador role. Also, anybody who watches this film is a bigot. Except the critic with a conscience, like me.
Rating: Dhurandhar gets 0 stars. It's an assault on our collective lack of conscience.
Please keep Aditya Dhar away from rotha SPY universe, Dhoom and Don. Just let him make original content movies like #URI and #Dhurandhar. He is a gift to the current trash state of Bollywood, preserve him and give him the creative freedom 🥹
@th_anonymouse I guess people crying no story, no craft and no substance need to really go check the BGM, behind the scenes, casting and especially how Thailand was converted into the exact location required for the movie.
Like #Chhaava, Hindi cinema did same mistake with another good movie, #Dhurandhar
What is this obsession with just having Hindi release?
Dub it with quality dubbing and release it in all languages
U may or may not get the revenue but it is ur responsibility to cultivate the habit and market
