@soicfinance On one side there is a thesis / narrative that AI is going to eat away white-collar jobs. On the other, India already is and is going to be a much bigger GCC hub.
Somehow I never get these things. It can be both, right?
@kothariabhishek Farmers - in large numbers - grow sugarcane. You cant force them not too - politically sensitive. So, we have a huge surplus of sugar over the last few years - almost 6 MT. This strains cashflows of everyone right from the Sugar Companies to Farmers to Govt. This had to be done!
I’m not sure why I paused on this clip when it appeared on my timeline.
I don’t even know the name of the dance form (apparently it’s from Saurashtra) but it shows a grandfather teaching his grandson the steps.
Yes, the dance itself is wonderful. Full of energy, joy and life. The kind that makes you want to join in.
But what really drew me in was what this clip symbolised: the passing on of tradition, rhythm and memory from one generation to the next.
In today’s uncertain world, I found that strangely comforting. That not everything around you will change.
It was a reassurance of continuity.

This is totally false.
Not an iota of truth in this.
There is no question of putting such restrictions on foreign travel.
We remain committed to improving ‘Ease of Doing Business’ and ‘Ease of Living’ for our people.
@NeelChhabra@abhymurarka If I remember correctly, they were at between 120-140 until very recently. Then they took a big rate hike - which put them double of JioSaavn.
100%, India needs a 100 subscription rupee model - atleast till we reach a 100 million subscriber mark.
@delhivery, how long should it take to deliver a 5 kg packet from Bangalore to Pune? It was shipped on 4th May and I have still not received it. The expected delivery date just keeps extending. Wonder if you have lost or have damaged the packet.
For centuries, Maharashtra and Bengal shaped India’s spiritual, intellectual and cultural identity.
While Maharashtra has continued to drive growth in the West, Bengal’s trajectory changed after Partition.
A resurgent Bengal can lead the East again...
One thing is clear: Neither the Trump Administration nor the Iranian regime cares about the livelihoods of billions of people worldwide. The fallout from closing the Strait of Hormuz will be far worse than most experts expect — some effects obvious, others not.
Let us look at some headlines:
🛞A Closed Strait of Hormuz Risks a Global Food Security Crisis
🛞The world's poorest countries are paying the price for a war they didn't start
🛞Global famine fears rise as Hormuz crisis threatens 'eight-year,' Suez-scale disruption
🛞UNCTAD reports: Disruptions worsen fertilizer access for the poorest countries, strain debt-burdened economies, weaken currencies, and raise household budget pressures
🛞IMF notes: Energy importers in Africa/Asia suffer most; food (43% of consumption in low-income countries) becomes unaffordable.
🛞Indonesia to maintain coal use amid energy security concerns
🛞Japan petrol prices surge to record high
🛞South Africa's diesel prices increase to record high
Remembering the innocent lives lost in the gruesome Pahalgam terror attack on this day last year. They will never be forgotten. My thoughts are also with the bereaved families as they cope with this loss.
As a nation, we stand united in grief and resolve. India will never bow to any form of terror. The heinous designs of terrorists will never succeed.
🎬With Ishwar's grace, am posting Part-1 of my short Movie: 'Fibonacci Speaks'. May many children see it like Dhurandhar! to know How our Maths changed the World !
In 1973 on this day Project Tiger was launched. Wild #tiger population in #India;
2006: 1411 tigers
2010: 1706 tigers
2014: 2226 tigers
2018: 2967 tigers
2022: 3682 tigers
Today #India is home to 70% wild tigers of the world.
A unique historical anecdote that sounds made up but is true: India was a top global GDP contributor for 1,700 of the last 2,000 years. Not just a player, but often THE top contributor, holding shares between 24% and 33%. 1/6
Dhurandhar: My take
While there are many real characters, the 3 main ones are representations - much bigger and deeper,
~ Jaskirat Singh - New, aggressive R&AW.
~ Major Iqbal - ISI. His Father, represents the Pak Army.
~ Jameel Jamali - Network setup by RN Kao in 60s & 70s.
@RajThackeray@MulaMutha I usually stay away from making any political statements. But there is no doubt that you should have led the Shiv Sena. The political landscape of Maharashtra - for sure - would have been very different today.
An attack on critical energy infrastructure is tantamount to an attack on humanity / threatening the survival of millions of people. I think the only thing worse than this is a nuclear war - which of course is in a different league and way worse.
Better sense needs to prevail…

South India should be the new or the next Dubai. Surrounded by sea on 3 sides and the rest of India to the north. Just in case it happens, I said it first. 😁
