Every Indigenous brand or story is killed off. From Kingfisher to IPL ! Anyone who builds a brand that could go global is killed in name of corruption. Meanwhile the biggest Swindlers in USA get state protection and bailouts. They protect their while we kills ours.

The White House openly takes bribe & manipulates the markets but holier than thou narrative is shoved through our throats.

Do Read how Andrew Carnegie, John D Rockefeller, Morgans created monopolies in America. Sam pattern is now visible in Mag 7 ! Have covered this aspect in my book #NitiShastra :Indian Wisdom for Modern Statecraft & Geopolitics

The mercantilists in India on Vendor-Vendee model with % in profit sharing however continue to thrive & flourish with Joint Ventures & Capex outflow towards Global North in America from Global South in India.

🚨 BREAKING: Foreign investors may soon pay 0% Capital Gains Tax in India.

Meanwhile, the average Indian continues to pay:
• 30% Income Tax
• 28% GST
• 20% Capital Gains Tax

Work. Earn. Invest. Pay taxes to fund ladli behan yojna and free food to 80 cr people’s.

Global capital gets the red carpet. 🇮🇳💰

What slogan to use for this move?
Be Indian, Tax Indian.
Or...
Make in India. Tax in India.
Confused.

If true, this is the worst and the most discriminatory move against Indians I have ever seen in my life! Indian investors who have been betting on India and had been holding their shares in the economy despite the struggling times we have been going through are being punished and foreign investors who pulled out money are being awarded. If you want to remove capital gains tax, remove for everyone! What is this slavery mindset with which our FM is working! Shameful! I would urge all Indian investors to pull out their money from Indian stocks if this is implemented!

@ritujoon2j Went during cherry blossom season. Visited Osaka, Hiroshima, Kyoto, Nara, Himeji, and Tokyo. Autumn is beautiful too. Check out klook for shinkansen and subway passes. 7/11, Lawsons for snacks, sandwiches. Daiso for inexpensive shopping. Food was fab.

Interesting revelations of - the IPL rackets …. Sunanda Pushkar in Jan 2014 - Tweeted that she will expose the secrets of IPL next day … But within 24 hours she was found dead in Hotel Leela… AIIIMS Post-mortem report clearly said 12 injuries on her body and injection marks in in-professional way … But Delhi Police diluted case - Chargesheeted husband Shashi Tharoor for flimsy sections - abetment to suicide and domestic violence - and Orally Prosecutor argued for murder charges

@JackRangaswami India needs to develop other cities and towns. Existing cities including Hyderabad are over populated.

Me on a Shinkansen

Me: Bro, Japan is on a whole different level, Everything is so quiet and orderly. I’m sitting there trying not to breathe too loud when this random Japanese salaryman in a suit suddenly turns to me.

Salaryman: Excuse me… you are foreigner, yes? First time in Japan?

Me: Yeah, just arrived last week.

He nods seriously, then whispers like he’s sharing state secrets:

Salaryman: Listen… I must warn you, Never, EVER trust the convenience store egg salad sandwich after 10pm.

Me: Wait what? Why?

Salaryman: leans closer, Because last month I ate one at 11:17pm… and I spoke to my ancestors for three straight hours in the bathroom, they were not happy with me.

The whole carriage was silent but I swear two aunties started silently laughing behind their fans. Japan will humble you in the most unhinged ways possible.

Middle class family planning a vacation now feels like preparing a startup funding pitch.
By the time calculations finish, the mood for travelling is already gone.

Kids are excited for summer vacation and asking for a trip.

But most tourist places are overcrowded, flight tickets are touching the sky, and decent hotels are out of budget.

The only hotels fitting the budget are the ones where even mosquitoes hesitate to stay. 😄

#Sweden has unofficially instructed VFS to not get any travelers to opt for their Premium Lounge with immediate effect.

Seems this has come post the media reports etc which were out recently. A good step.

Thanks @SwedeninIndia

Nuclear Families are thing of Past.We are witnessing Nuclear Individuals now.

Earlier it was difficult to live with family,now its getting difficult to live with anyone else other than self. Technology is isolating Humans so that it can fill the gaps in Human life.

Almost every major stock market across the world is performing well, except India. Full credit goes to brainless freebies, reckless tax policies, and an inefficient, incompetent government that seems clueless about economic priorities. Under this leadership, growth is being strangled while citizens are left paying the price.

[Sandeep Manudhane @sandeep_PT]

India is entering that extremely dangerous zone where sons and daughters of several top policymakers, industrialists, civil servants, defence officials and politicians are settled in America, or are citizens of America.

How can they ever take on America when push comes to shove? They'll never ever push back, given direct family interests.

China sidelines all such officials as a principle. No compromise.

But here? They're leading the show.

See the system is never at fault. Either you are at fault, or your lawyer is at fault, or Nehru was at fault 60 years ago, it one of these things.

But the system is never at fault

India's crypto tax (2026):

→ 30% flat tax on ALL gains
→ 1% TDS on every transaction (even if you lose money overall)
→ ZERO loss offset, lose ₹80K on ETH, profit ₹1L on BTC: tax on full ₹1L
→ No deduction for trading fees, gas, advisory costs
→ 31.2% effective minimum rate with cess

Result: 72% of India's crypto trading volume fled to offshore platforms.

We taxed innovation so hard, innovation left the country.

Sound familiar?

BEFORE SLEEPING KNOW THIS...
Kallur Balan of Palakkad reportedly planted nearly 25 lakh trees—without government funding, corporate sponsorship, or a large environmental movement behind him.
Starting around year 2001, he spent years carrying saplings across barren and rocky land in Palakkad, Thrissur, and Malappuram, planting them one by one while most people merely discussed climate change.
Today, his efforts have transformed over 100 acres into thriving forests filled with neem, bamboo, tamarind, birds, and wildlife.
