A great innings has come to an end. In our hearts, now and forever, Sir Garfield Sobers. 🖤🏏

Would be interesting to see how India's current role in south Asia and in the global south acts as a leverage. India's entry will pave the way for the third influence zone, which is much required in the current situation.

India formally launches its campaign for United Nations Security Council 2028-2029.

This incident has occurred in the Mugguru range of #CauveryWS, this area is supposed to be a part of the newly created #KanakpuraWildlifeDivision which was created primarily to "mitigate" #HEC
Time and again the inneficacy of railway barricades have been proven.

@themodernhp I know making reels are an important part of human survival, but why take such a risk?

[Somreet Bhattacharya @Somreetb]

It is completely okay for him to do that. The ethos of the Army is well intact and it is good that both of them imbibed that. The Indian Armed Forces are different perhaps this is why, it has a soft side to it as well. We should be celebrating this instead of creating an issue over it. May the Almighty bless them.

What is wrong with @bsesdelhi if you have to cut the power supply of an area to save on some power that is fine. Why have this entire voltage fluctuation business? Appliances and everything else goes for a toss.

[Somreet Bhattacharya @Somreetb]

With this huge mandate now @BJP4Bengal will have huge expections to meet.

[Somreet Bhattacharya @Somreetb]

Never been that scared while landing at any airport like I had last night in Delhi. @AkasaAir certainly has amazing pilots who managed to land the aircraft in an aandhi. The aircraft swayed like anything due to the tailwind.

He is driving the world to the brink of a world war and all that matters to him is a deal. He will kill children, bomb thousands of people and all that matters to him is a deal.

[ANI @ANI]

#WATCH | US President Donald Trump says, "They (Iran) are begging to make a deal, not me. They're begging to make a deal, and anybody who saw what was happening over there would understand why they want to make a deal. But they say, we're not talking to them... They're not fools. They're very smart, in a certain way. I say they're lousy fighters, but they're great negotiators. They are begging to work out a deal. I don't know if we'll be able to do that. I don't know if we're willing to do that. They should have done that four weeks ago. They should have done it two years ago. Or they should have done it when we first came into office..."

I wonder where all this arrogance comes from?

India showed the way in how to deal during a war without using violence. What would have been the issue with talking it out?

An eye for an eye, does make the whole world blind isn't it?

[News Algebra @NewsAlgebraIND]

🚨 TRUMP : "I have the capability to make it nearly impossible for Iran to rebuild"

"And all of that can be done by the United States military within one hour"

"It’s just a question of when. When do we stop?"

"I’m watching some of the news. Most people say it’s already been won. We don’t want to let it regrow"

"We can hit sections of Tehran and other places. If we do it, it will be almost impossible for them to rebuild their country"

[Somreet Bhattacharya @Somreetb]

Saw this somewhere. Napoleon was spot on 🤔 #war #USIranWar

[Somreet Bhattacharya @Somreetb]

@IamRajat_Pandit Reports coming in Abraham Lincoln hit, not sure if that is true sir.

[Somreet Bhattacharya @Somreetb]

I guess that is a depiction of the modern day greed for power and also salvation against ones whose greed for power is put to a halt.

#war

Water colour on handmade paper.

[Somreet Bhattacharya @Somreetb]

The world could have done without another invasion, another war.

[Somreet Bhattacharya @Somreetb]

This should be interesting. Would be great to know about the third kind of life forms.

[The White House @WhiteHouse]

"Based on the tremendous interest shown, I will be directing the Secretary of War, and other relevant Departments and Agencies, to begin the process of identifying and releasing Government files related to alien and extraterrestrial life, unidentified aerial phenomena (UAP), and unidentified flying objects (UFOs)..." - President Donald J. Trump

[Somreet Bhattacharya @Somreetb]

@IamRajat_Pandit There is a bit of a cautious approach to the entire Macron visit this time, it seems.

[Somreet Bhattacharya @Somreetb]

In a world where a deep fake is shared by millions of people as "real incident", a university trying to pass off others' innovation as theirs is normalised because we are okay with plagiarism, with AI generated convenience. I don't know what all this would lead us to

[Somreet Bhattacharya @Somreetb]

India, at a point of time was an socio-economic superpower. There were carnelian beads and pearls being shipped out of places like Rakhigarhi and Kalibangan, I was infact amazed to see greek motifs at one of the early middle Harappan sites.

Where are we heading? Imagine the grief of the mother. The craze for social media fame is taking lives all over.
