People around the world may not know: India is opening an airport or terminal every 75 days. Some 80 airports have been built in the last 10 years, more than what India has built in the preceding 7 decades since independence. And the airports look like this.

No where in the world, with a per capita of $3000 and per sq km population density of 500 humans, can you see herds of large wild and dangerous beasts roaming about freely and growing in numbers.

It can happen only in India.

Do not let those who massacred their wild animals to live freely, and cull their dangerous beasts if they increase in numbers or attack humans, preach us and program you against the nation when there's some human animal conflict in India.

Or tell us about human rights.

Kudos to Assam for doing so much in conservation of nature and increase in numbers of India's big beasts like Elephants, Tigers, and Rhinos.

Delighted to inaugurate the New Terminal Building at Jodhpur Airport.

In addition to providing passengers with better amenities, it will also strengthen tourism, trade and economic opportunities across Rajasthan.

India’s aviation sector continues to soar, powered by next-generation infrastructure and our commitment to connecting every part of our nation.

[Narendra Modi @narendramodi]

From Jodhpur, the Modified UDAN Scheme will be launched. This will ensure that more people are able to fly and connectivity across India is enhanced. Focus will be on developing 100 aerodromes from existing unserved strips and allocating more resources to Operations and Maintenance (O&M) support.

Appeal is a statutory right and an essential facet of access to justice.

The judiciary has often gone to extraordinary lengths to ensure that justice is not denied on technical grounds.

If portal-related constraints hinder the filing of appeals, the issue warrants urgent attention.

Technology must facilitate, not impede, the administration of justice.

A humble request from the stakeholders..#GST @GSTATofficial

Google which is cash surplus, just announced an additional capital raise of $80 bn.
Google annual profit is $160 bn, last quarter $62 bn, and market cap $4.5 trillion. That is close to total profits and market cap of all Indian listed companies put together.
It’s a wake up call to all companies to invest into the future, whatever the present maybe.
Now that IPL is done and dusted, time for India to focus on business of business.

JUST IN: The United States has fired 2,400 Patriot interceptors in 31 days. It manufactures 650 per year. Replenishment at current production takes three and a half years. It has consumed 40 percent of its global THAAD inventory. It produces fewer than 100 THAAD interceptors annually. Full replenishment takes four to five years. Each interceptor contains neodymium and samarium-cobalt magnets sourced from Chinese-controlled supply chains. The US defence rare earth stockpile has approximately two months remaining.

Read those numbers again. The US military has consumed more precision weapons in one month than it can manufacture in three years, using materials it can only source from the country it may need to fight next.

Every Patriot fired at an Iranian Fattah-2 over Riyadh is a Patriot that does not exist for a Chinese DF-21 over the Taiwan Strait. Every rare earth magnet consumed in Gulf interceptors is a magnet that cannot be installed in a replacement built for the Pacific. The Iran war is not just depleting American arsenals. It is depleting American deterrence against China. And the country counting the interceptors from both sides of the table, as supplier and as future adversary, is the same country hosting peace talks in Beijing right now.

China controls 90 percent of rare earth refining. China produces 90 percent of the world’s high-performance magnets. China buys 80 to 91 percent of Iran’s oil exports. China provides BeiDou navigation and ammonium perchlorate propellant to the Iranian missiles that are forcing the US to burn through its interceptor stockpile. China is simultaneously the supplier of the weapons America is using, the supplier of the weapons Iran is using, the primary customer of the oil the war is disrupting, and the only country with the leverage to end the disruption.

The arithmetic of the grand bargain is not complicated. The US needs Chinese rare earths to rebuild its interceptor inventory. China needs Hormuz open to receive Iranian oil. The US needs the war to end before its stockpiles hit zero. China needs tariff relief, semiconductor export control rollbacks, and Taiwan arms-sale restraint. Both sides need something only the other can provide. The question is not whether a deal happens. The question is how much of America’s strategic position in the Pacific gets traded for the minerals needed to survive the Gulf.

RAND estimated that 78 percent of US defence contractors would face production shutdowns within 90 days of a Chinese rare earth cutoff. The 2027 deadline to ban Chinese-sourced magnets from Pentagon procurement is nine months away with no domestic alternative at scale. MP Materials operates the only US rare earth mine and ships its concentrate to China for processing. The mine-to-magnet supply chain that the Pentagon needs to survive a Taiwan contingency runs through the country the Taiwan contingency is designed to deter.

This is not a supply chain problem. This is a civilisational dependency. The United States built the most advanced military in human history on materials processed by its principal strategic competitor. It is now fighting a war that burns through those materials at a rate that makes replenishment impossible without the competitor’s cooperation. And the competitor is sitting in a conference room in Beijing today, across the table from Pakistan’s foreign minister, calculating exactly how much of America’s future it can extract in exchange for the minerals America needs to have a future at all.

The deal of the century is not a choice. It is arithmetic. And the arithmetic leads to Beijing.

Despite Vedanta’s marginally higher headline offer, lenders chose Adani for superior structure: upfront cash, faster recovery & far greater execution certainty vs Vedanta’s 5-6 year staggered payments with limited commitment.

Adani also offered ₹2,000 cr to flat buyers stuck 15+ years — Vedanta offered zero. Certainty trumped numbers.

Analysts also point to Vedanta’s track record in past insolvency cases as a factor weighing on confidence.

In 2018, Vedanta emerged as the highest bidder for GMR Chhattisgarh Energy with a bid of about Rs 2,500 crore but later exited the transaction.

The same year, the group withdrew from the Ind-Barath Energy (Utkal) deal after receiving approval from the National Company Law Tribunal, leading to legal disputes.

KOLKATA was India’s Tech Hub before Bangalore: WHY IT FAILED.

Bangalore didn’t become India’s tech capital by accident.
Kolkata gave up the opportunity first.

In the 1980s, global tech companies were setting up offices in Kolkata.
The talent was there.
The momentum was there.
The future was already knocking.

Then came the strikes.
Not for higher pay.
Not for better work.
But against computerization itself.

An entire industry moved away because people believed computers would “take the jobs.”
No talk of upskilling.
No talk of growing the pie.
Just fear that the ‘cake’ could only be divided, never expanded.

That one mindset shift changed the fate of two cities.

Kolkata froze.

Bangalore scaled.

This is what happens when you resist the future instead of learning to build with it.
