Why is the Global Media completely silent on civilian protests across Pakistan Occupied Jammu & Kashmir (PoJK) and killings by Pakistan Military? International live coverage on protests in democratic India but complete mute spectator to Army ruled Pakistan’s atrocities in PoJK.

@RailMinIndia @RailwayNorthern @drmfzr Train 22439 Vande Bharat is currently stuck near Pathankot Cantt (PTKC) due to a complete lack of electricity supply/OHE failure. AC and lights are off, passengers are facing extreme discomfort. Please resolve the issue urgently!

Passengers stuck in a heated train with no AC due to lack of electric supply for Vande Bharat is a serious problem with Rail Infra.

Please look into it quickly and resolve

By this logic, Top Gun: Maverick reflects a world Americans "browbeaten by years of Pentagon messaging" believe to be real. James Bond is 60 years of MI6 recruitment propaganda. Dunkirk is Churchill's ghost writing British exceptionalism into celluloid. Zero Dark Thirty literally had CIA officers on set.

But when those films release, The Economist writes about "the power of cinema to capture national memory." When India makes one, it's a symptom of mass delusion manufactured by a strongman.

Fifteen thousand Indian civilians killed in Pakistan-sponsored terrorism since 1970. A film dramatises it. The Economist's concern is not the terrorism. It's that Indians noticed.

Condescension this perfectly calibrated hasn't been seen since the last time someone in London explained to Indians what Indians actually think.

I mean just because Washington Sundar is an off-spinner you selected him over India's best white ball spin all rounder since a very long time, who contributed in India's 2 ICC Trophies win.

My blood is boiling right now, I am just speechless. He was also rewarded with vice-captaincy for his performances & anyone who thinks Washington Sundar is better T2O package than Axar doesn't watch cricket.

Washington is the guy, who struggles to find a place in his IPL Franchise XI.

[Sonam Mahajan @AsYouNotWish]

The irony is rich.

An Indian sneaks into a foreign country illegally, fakes persecution back home, lives off lies for decades, and finally gets deported when even the U.S. refuses to buy the ‘persecuted victim’ story. That in itself proves there was never any case of persecution. Yet instead of treating such people as criminals who tarnish India’s image abroad and undermine its credibility, our media turns them into martyrs. They wail about ‘harsh deportation conditions’ as if illegal entry should come with red carpet privileges. If you enter another country illegally, be ready to face consequences.

Shame on the Indian media glorifying crooks at the cost of India’s dignity.

@vikundal @JPDCLofficial @OfficeOfLGJandK I hope this improves after your response.
Power came for 10 mins. It's again gone. You can validate it by asking in your local feeder / station. I hope you can do better than claiming that consumer is lying and needs validation. Adding some snapshots of power cuts for reference

[Sumit Anand @Sumy_Anand]

There were 5 unscheduled power cuts of 1.5-2 hr each in Vikas Lane 3 today(only till evening)! This is going on for a month!

What is the fun of smart meters and promises of 24x7 power! Is anyone listening? How do we survive in this heat?@vikundal @JPDCLofficial @OfficeOfLGJandK

On @Linkedin, @Microsoft and their wokeness.

As an Indian institution, Ola is for genuine actions on diversity. We run one of the largest women only automotive plants. Not 1 out of 10 lines, or a small section, but the whole plant! Almost 5000 women now and will grow to tens of thousands in the coming years. And regarding gender inclusivity, we don’t need lectures from western companies on how to be inclusive. Our culture didn’t need pronouns to be inclusive for thousands of years. On a personal note, I had visited Ayodhya last year and learnt about how transgenders had been accorded special respect in our culture from ancient times! Here’s a short video from our national broadcaster DD on this - https://t.co/TGxfSjtM0F.

On the other hand, the pronouns issue I wrote about is a woke political ideology of entitlement which doesn’t belong in India. I wouldn’t have waded into this debate but clearly Linkedin has presumed Indians need to have pronouns in our life, and that we can’t criticise it. They will bully us into agreeing with them or cancel us out. And if they can do this to me, I’m sure the average user stands no chance. As a founder and CEO, this western DEI system has a major impact on my business as it grows an entitlement mindset in our professional lives and I will fight it.

This situation brings me to the need for us to build our own Indian tech platforms. I’m not against global tech companies. But as an Indian citizen, I feel concerned that my life will be governed by western Big Tech monopolies and we will be culturally subsumed as the above experience shows. This is not about Ola or any of my companies. Ola is too small to make any impact against this. I want to confront this forced ideology as a free thinking Indian and do what I can in my capacity. So here are the actions I’m taking. Putting my money where my mouth is.
⁃While we can’t do anything about Linkedin’s monopoly overnight, I’m making a commitment to work with the Indian developer community to build a DPI social media framework. DPIs like UPI, ONDC, Aadhaar etc are a uniquely Indian idea and is even more needed in the world of social media. The only “community guidelines” should be the Indian law. No corporate person should be able to decide what will be banned. Data should be owned by the creators instead of being owned by the corporates who make money using our data and then lecture us on “community guidelines”!
⁃Since LinkedIn is owned by Microsoft and Ola is a big customer of Azure, we’ve decided to move our entire workload out of Azure to our own @Krutrim cloud within the next week. It is a challenge as all developers know, but my team is so charged up about doing this.
⁃Any other developer who wants to move out of Azure, we will offer a full year of free cloud usage. As long as you don’t go back to Azure after that! Mail us on [email protected]. Offer is perpetually open!

The relentless exertions by #PMModi and the #MEA both through diplomatic channels and legal recourse to establish the innocence of and reverse the death sentence imposed by a trial court in #Qatar on 8 Ex Indian Navy personnel for alleged espionage has mercifully yielded huge success. The Court of Appeal in #Qatar has commuted the death sentence to 5 years imprisonment as a result of which the whole country can heave a massive sigh of relief. The next step will entail an exclusively diplomatic endeavour consisting as it does of the invocation of a treaty signed by India and Qatar in 2015 whereby convicted nationals of each country in the other may be permitted to serve out their sentence in their own country. May #Yama , the deity of death & justice who has already enabled the rescue of the ex Naval personnel from death now afford them complete justice by guiding the diplomatic prowess of #PMModi & the #MEA and securing their return home
