@GautamSahijwala @atherenergy @tarunsmehta Disappointing!
A good product bogged down by poor customer experience and unprofessional brand management.
You have approached the top management. Await a response.
Else, take up the grievance with Consumer Forums including the Ministry of Consumer Affairs.

@nitin97 @mybmc @Dev_Fadnavis @adgpi @CMOMaharashtra @CPMumbaiPolice @DefenceMinIndia @mybmcWardA @HNarwekar @TawdeRitu @AshwiniBhide Yes, the issue requires immediate attention. Hope the authorities take note.

@GautamSahijwala @atherenergy Disappointing! This is how corporates lose credibility at the ground level… Long term impact could hurt numbers.
Simply put, despite a quality product, after sales service lacks and that poor experience becomes ‘word of mouth’ marketing , damaging brand image.

Warm congratulations to PM @narendramodi on becoming India’s longest-serving elected Prime Minister. A true statesman who has transformed India’s economy and standing in the world. Proud of the Comprehensive Strategic Partnership we built together. Congrats my friend. 🇦🇺 🇮🇳

AUSTERITY ADVISORY IS AT BEST A STOP GAP. A fuel price is inevitable only the timing is uncertain.
India imports 85-87% of its crude. Brent is nearing $100-104/barrel. Every $10 rise in crude adds Rs 80,000 crore to India’s annual import bill.
Meanwhile, PSU oil firms are reportedly absorbing Rs30,000 crore/month in under-recoveries because India hasn’t fully passed on the global oil shock to consumers.
This cannot continue indefinitely.
Higher crude means:
1.wider trade deficit
2.pressure on the rupee
3.higher transport & food inflation
4. rising fiscal stress
Even discounted Russian oil has limits. Russia still accounts for 33-38% of India’s basket, but freight, insurance and geopolitical risks are all rising.
If elevated crude persists India will eventually HAVE to raise fuel prices to decrease fiscal burden and save PSU oil firms from bleeding further.
But to say that this is a result of mismanagement is not true. Consider
INFLATION:
+ India CPI inflation: 3.4%
+ UK inflation: 5%+
+ Eurozone inflation: ~4%+ in several major economies after energy shocks
+ Many emerging economies continue facing significantly higher food & fuel inflation
FUEL PRICES
+ Several European nations sharply raised pump prices after global crude spikes
+ India has still not fully passed on the global oil shock to consumers

BJP Bengal candidate Kalita Majhi, who works as a domestic worker in 4 households and earns ₹2,500 a month, wins from the Ausgram constituency. This is the power of the BJP, where even the most humble citizen can rise and script a truly inspiring journey.

[Deepak Sahijwala @Sahijwala]

I do not think the word “Introspection” exists in the Congress’ dictionary. Time and again their failure reflects it.
And to be fair, while the BJP forges ahead on efficiency, we need some distractions.
Kindly enjoy the sidelined entertainment… Else life will get too serious.

[Dharmendra Pradhan @dpradhanbjp]

LoP Shri @RahulGandhi ji, selective outrage is not an argument.

Instead of undertaking introspection after repeated electoral setbacks, Congress has increasingly resorted to questioning the electoral process itself whenever outcomes are unfavourable.

When your party wins in Keralam, the same Election Commission becomes “credible” and “independent”. When results go elsewhere, it becomes “compromised” and “stolen”. This convenience-driven approach exposes a clear inconsistency in Congress’s interpretation of democracy.

One wonders if @INCIndia believes democracy has a ‘valid only when we win’ setting.

The Election Commission of India remains a constitutional authority that has conducted elections across states and decades, with outcomes favouring different parties at different points in time-BJP, Congress, and regional parties alike. Institutional integrity cannot be switched on and off depending on who wins.

From West Bengal to Assam and beyond, selectively framing electoral outcomes through suspicion rather than acceptance reduces complex voter choices into political accusations. When results are fragmented or unexpected, it reflects voter choice, not “stolen elections”.

Mandates are decided by voters, not manufactured through post-result narratives. A mandate is a mandate, whether it suits political convenience or not. Democracies run on acceptance of verdicts and accountability to the people, not on attempts to delegitimise outcomes when they do not align with expectations.

Such repeated attempts to discredit verdicts do not strengthen democracy. They end up weakening Congress’s own credibility, as voters increasingly see this as a refusal to accept defeat rather than engage with it.

At this point, perhaps the only thing consistently ‘rigged’ is Congress’s relationship with electoral reality.

Sharp Edge: Mamata Banerjee is a liberal heroine outside of Bengal. But within Bengal there has always been anger over TMC corruption & goondagiri. Mamata’s secularism is seen as opportunism
This election, the Bengali anger finally spilled over .

No 'Left' left? For 1st time since 1970s, India to have no Communist CM as last bastion crumbles. A great development for India. Those who held back India are now facing the heat https://t.co/AlnKPPbhlF

[Smita Prakash @smitaprakash]

INDI alliance has lost two titans on 4th May 2026. Stalin and Mamata Banerjee have lost their respective seats as well as states. The third titan Nitish Kumar had quit already. Sharad Pawar no longer in leadership position. Rahul Gandhi has no competition.
That makes BJP happy.

Bengal’s business community is absolutely delighted with result of Bengal elections:

1. Development will be back on the agenda
2. Jobs and investments will follow
3. A stronger, more cohesive social climate will emerge

A decisive mandate for BJP is the catalyst Bengal’s economy has been waiting for.
