It’s been a year since the tragic Ahmedabad Air India plane crash
This UK-based couple lost their son in that heartbreaking disaster.
On the first anniversary of his passing, they returned to the crash site to remember him.
No one loves you like your parents do❤️🥺

Om Shaanti! 💐
Honoured to be entrusted with the responsibility of the Finance Dept of the W. Bengal government. It is a very challenging responsibility. However, the goals are clear: to restore good governance in the state & give back to the community its lost pride & self-respect. @SuvenduWB@narendramodi@AmitShah
An inadvertent omission:
Deeply grateful to the Government & people of the Sultanate of Oman for their swift & courageous rescue of 21 Indian seafarers from the attacked vessel MT Settebello in the Gulf of Oman. Oman’s prompt action once again reflects the strong bonds of friendship between our nations. Though our hearts are heavy with grief over the three Indian nationals killed, Indians appreciate Oman’s continued support. @badralbusaidi@OmanEmbassy_Ind

Spoke to US Secretary of State Marco Rubio this evening. I reiterated India’s strong protest at the attacks by the US Navy in the Gulf that killed three Indian mariners. Such lethal actions against commercial shipping are not justified.
@Iam_Rohit_G And he was given a standing ovation by all delegates including PM. The President came rushing to the venue and congratulated him. US President is scheduled to call him.
@ShashiTharoor Agreed but it needs to be two way discussion. This article would have been more powerful if Kashmiri Pandits were in first place not driven out or atleast now rehabilitated. All communities must reflect
If the government is spending ₹100, how much actually falls into corruption?
My assumption is that for Central government development projects like national highways or metros, the figure is probably below 20%.
The real corruption starts at the state and municipal levels, where I think the percentage can reach as high as 70% lmao. Just look at Mumbai's newly inaugurated flyover 🙂
Irrespective of political parties, local MLAs and MPs take their cut, and the babus take a separate cut as well.
One year after 260 people were killed in one of the most horrific crashes we have seen in years, this is all we have presently by way of an update on the investigation. No preliminary report. No final report. Yes, a final report can take more time but this is a deep disappointment. And absolutely no closure for the families who lost their loved ones.
Another day but Same Story.
A pack of dogs started barking & chasing a pedestrian for no reason..He panicked & ran away from them but he ran out of luck eventually.
This accident would have never happened if we didn't have this dog menace.
They are ticking ⌚️🧨 roaming around us.
Abhijit Sarkar’s murder cannot be buried.
Abhijit Sarkar was not just killed. He was hunted. He was chased. He was murdered in front of his mother. And they even killed his dogs and puppies. And sexually assaulted his old mother.
Swapan Samaddar, the TMC councillor and one of the prime accused in the 2021 killing of Abhijit, has finally been arrested in West Bengal.
And yet, for years, his brother Biswajit fought relentlessly while an entire political ecosystem tried to bury the truth under power, fear and silence.
We petitioned the Supreme Court where we have names every accoused.
This arrest is not closure.
It is the beginning.
Bengal does not need selective memory.
There must be justice for:
Every murder.
Every rape allegation.
Every displaced family.
Every burnt home.
Every silenced witness.
Every cadre-protected accused.
Abhijit Sarkar’s last words in this video must haunt Bengal’s conscience.
Because his case was not an exception.
It is a window into what political terror looked like under the Trinamool Congress when the state government of Mamata Banerjee looked away.
