Now my mother receives calls several times a day from Airtel billing asking her to pay the bill for a NON-EXISTENT line.

[Narayan Pant @ProfNarayanPant]

A helpful lady at an Airtel store said the ony way to resolve this was by not paying the bill on my fathers NON-EXISTENT line for 3 months

[Narayan Pant @ProfNarayanPant]

They could not, because of a glitch IN THEIR systems.

[Narayan Pant @ProfNarayanPant]

@airtelindia @Airtel_Presence We went to the Airtel shops repeatedly, death certificates, notarized requests to cancel my father's line and separate my mother's.

Shameful treatment of an 89 year old widow by Airtel India. @airtelindia @Airtel_Presence
My father and mother were on the same Airtel bill. My father passed away 3 years ago. His line was non-functional, the Airtel message said this number is not in use.

@newscientist @devisridhar A powerful statement in the article - “we don’t need more research.” “Let’s do more research” can become an excuse to do nothing.

@matthewjdowd Dear Matthew Dowd, thank you for what you do. Your calming epistles frequently make my day.

[Narayan Pant @ProfNarayanPant]

@BDUTT May I please add that a significant portion of his legacy is you? And just seeing what you do, day in and day out, must surely be a testament to his influence. Thank you…

[Narayan Pant @ProfNarayanPant]

@devisridhar Professor Sridhar, hope you get some time with loved ones to simply chill and be. From someone who deeply appreciates the evidence-based perspectives you bring to this conversation, please accept thanks.

@KrutikaKuppalli I have enjoyed following you over the pandemic. Your thoughts have been considered and thoughtful. Please stay the course. Voltaire will triumph one day and we will return to agreeing to disagree.

[Narayan Pant @ProfNarayanPant]

@yogital Bless you! Love what you do…

[Narayan Pant @ProfNarayanPant]

@MarinaHyde This is only right and fitting for someone who has kept so many sane for so long…

@JamesMartinSJ @JesuitsEast @jesuitswest @JesuitsUCS @MidwestJesuits @BeAJesuit @jesuitnews Bless ‘em! I’m not even a Christian but Jesuits taught me to box, play rugby and sing soprano. They treated me as a person not a religion. Huge respect.

@SnehaAnnavarapu Hmmm biryani or briyani - in Singapore it matters. The distinction starts minor wars.

[Narayan Pant @ProfNarayanPant]

@devisridhar Exactly - “wisdom over ignorance” - what you do day in and day out. Happy Diwali Dr Devi Sridhar.

[Narayan Pant @ProfNarayanPant]

@PriyankaPulla @vishuguttal Ummm chichubuddi? Just checking…

@balajis The capacity to absorb external shocks for its populace with minimal loss of quality of life (or it should be)

@meghara Indian dad here … forwarded to my kids lmao. They didn’t crack a smile. I will pay more attention

[Narayan Pant @ProfNarayanPant]

@SnehaAnnavarapu If you’re teaching in Singapore - two points: a) they are probably not aware they come across as disrespectful; b) pointing it out to them may be all you need to do

[Narayan Pant @ProfNarayanPant]

@jnoisecat Watch the thought, don’t do anything with it. Just stare at it like it’s an interesting object you have discovered. Then, as you keep watching that scary thought, start writing...
