So eventually @KESCoHQ has installed pre-paid meters now & they have absolutely have no idea how to manage this, the app doesn't work, it doesn't show your balance, the electricity will get cut if you have negative balance @CMOfficeUP@myogiadityanath
you can't track the current balance & without any notification the electricity will get cut. You then need to visit the local office & they are also clueless on how to track this.
You would learn things no classroom teaches:
• how customers think
• how money flows
• how to sell
• how to solve real problems
• how to survive failure
@joeljohn This is exactly the kind of problem worth building around.
If you're serious about backing it, I’d love to explore building it together. Let’s talk.
I resonate deeply with the intent and the larger civilisational vision you’re speaking about. A technologically strong and self-reliant Bharat is not just an economic goal—it’s a cultural and moral one.
That said, the reality on the ground is harsh. Today, there is very little genuine support for long-term R&D. Even in Tier-1 cities, startups struggle to get backing unless they can show near-term cash flow or profitability within 4–6 months. Deep tech and foundational research—by nature—take years of trial, failure, sweat, and sustained belief. Expecting them to behave like quick-return businesses defeats their very purpose.
If this is the situation in Tier-1 ecosystems, rural talent rarely even enters the picture. Capital, mentorship, patience, and institutional backing simply don’t reach there in any meaningful way yet.
That said, if you’re looking for a helping hand—or to build something concrete in this direction—count me in. I’m genuinely interested in promoting innovation at the ground level, especially where talent exists but opportunity doesn’t. Bridging this gap between vision and execution is where real self-reliance will begin.
Money will move globally in real time, at near-zero cost, and mostly behind the scenes.
Users won’t worry about forex, settlement delays, or where their bank is located. Borders will still exist for regulation, but not for user experience.
99% of people will ignore this....
But in the next 20 years, cross-border money movement will be fundamentally re-engineered.

I’ve always been obsessed with purpose.
As a kid, I wanted to build things that made the world cleaner — even dreamed of a “vibration bomb” that reduced pollution 😄
That curiosity led me to engineering.
Not for a job. Not because someone told me to.
But because I wanted to understand how things work.

Not a vendor/client thing — partnership only.
