@sardesairajdeep@nagarjund Its a Ceremonial Ritual that Nagarjun knows the next Chief Minister and conducts his pre oath interview. So as a yard stick till such time that interview does not happen. I dont believe of any changes happening there back in Bangalore.
First chapter First paragraph of @SoniaGandhi book “Belonging A Journey of Love”

Glad to share that the girl child's recovery is progressing steadily. She is maintaining 99% SpO2 on room air and remains hemodynamically stable. She has tolerated oral soft feeds well, and the NG tube is planned for removal later today. Pain & anxiety are well managed, and active physiotherapy and shoulder ROM exercises are underway under expert guidance. Wishing her a speedy complete recovery!

Got hold of K. Annamalai’s book, Unfinished Hope at Bengaluru Airport
Looking forward to reading his journey, experiences and reflections.
A book that promises insights into the man behind the public persona.

It’s truly heartening that our collective efforts have begun to bear fruit.
A huge shoutout to industry veterans like @rohithbhat who are ensuring the world comes ashore to our #SiliconBeach.
Their way of and willingness to give #BackToOoru will write this new chapter of our coast’s growth in the days to come. More power to every effort and voice in this direction.
These popular Davidoff coffee candies are fake.
I investigated the packaging, spoke to retailers and contacted Davidoff Café directly.
The brand confirmed that these candies are unlicensed and unauthorised.
Here's what I found. A thread.
No compromise on local employment. Prioritise Kannadigas for jobs, provided they meet the required qualifications, skills and merit. If local candidates are equally qualified, they must get a chance. The demand for jobs for locals is entirely justified.
Kannada is supreme in Karnataka. Those who live and work here must make an effort to learn and speak Kannada. Respect the land, its people and its language.
BREAKING: Not E20 fuel , but E 31.2 fuel
Karnataka govt’s petrol tests find ethanol blending above 20% in samples from seven districts.
The state tested 63 petrol samples collected across Karnataka from major oil companies, including IOCL, HPCL, BPCL, Shell and Nayara.
After oil marketing companies failed to clearly disclose ethanol content, the government sent the samples to private labs.
Results of Ethanol blend :
IOCL: 31.2%+
HPCL: 30.5%
HPCL: 27%
BPCL: 26.5%
Nayara: 26.1%
Shell: 25.5%
Bengaluru was among the seven districts where samples exceeded the 20% ethanol limit.
Karnataka will send its report to the Centre.

Call it a bizarre twist of fate or divine intervention. A woman who plunged into Karnataka's Kumaradhara river in a suicide bid was bitten by a crocodile, an attack that inadvertently saved her life. Her screams for help alerted police personnel and local residents, who rushed to her rescue and pulled her out of the water, police said.

Kerala launches the ‘Siddharth Student Welfare App’ to help students confidentially report ragging and seek assistance.
Named after J S Sidharthan, the 2024 ragging death at Wayanad Veterinary College, the app aims to ensure no other student or family suffers a similar tragedy.
CM V.D. Satheesan said the government is committed to making campuses safe for every student. The app will initially be rolled out on a trial basis before being extended across the state.
The government also plans to introduce a dedicated anti-ragging law in the Assembly.
