Karnataka Forest Minister & BTM Layout MLA @RLR_BTM has written to @OfficialBMRCL seeking changes to 3 Metro station names, citing local familiarity, historical/geographical significance and public opinion.
Proposed changes:
• JP Nagar 4th Phase → NS Palya
• Tavarekere → SG Palya
• Dairy Circle → Lakkasandra
He urged BMRCL to consult residents, the public & local leaders before renaming stations.
BRICS 2026 summit being held at New Delhi on September 12th & 13th assumes significance as it is being held in backdrop of global crisis in disruption of supply chains of energy & agriculture because of wars in West Asia & Ukraine.
I'm surprised to see that Kengeri railway station doesn't have lift/escalator which is very crucial for PWDs and elders. I hereby request @PiyushGoyal sir to spend some time on this issue and get it resolved🙏
@NammaRailways@SWRRLY@GMSWR plz help to get safest commute for all.
Ruchir Sharma: "...It's very clear that the extent of the (economic)contraction is directly correlated to the extent of the lockdown. India had the most severe lockdown and that's why we had the biggest contraction..."

Dear @narendramodi ji,
I'm not married, but I have a dream to raise my kid in govt school. Please improve the infrastructure and pay good salary to teachers.
Let's not make education as a business please. I know many ministers own schools...☹️ @PMOIndia#TeachersDay2020
India had one of the most stringent lockdown in 1st Quarter of FY 2020-21. Economic impact of this is before the world. India is experiencing a big recession with -23.9% GDP growth in Q1. At same time our country is also experiencing biggest daily rise in Covid cases. #COVID19
Blaming -23.9% growth in 1st Quarter of this fiscal on Covid-19 pandemic is not the solution. Good economics is all about managing various risks. It's unfortunate that India is the worst affected large economy in the world. #GDP#GDPGrowth
This pandemic has become an excuse for governments to violate people's fundamental rights. I don't think authorities need CDR for contact tracing. Do these governments consider Covid-19 patients as offenders who need to be kept under surveillance? #COVID19#rights

New Zealand, a country of 5 million has successfully brought this 21st century pandemic under control in their country. Our governments have got a lot to learn from them. #COVID19
#COVID19: #NewZealand records 100 days without domestic virus case but warns against complacency as countries like Vietnam and Australia which once had virus under control now battle a resurgence in infections
