I think it’s a good opportunity for a new political party in 2029 elections (post-delimitation). In a new landscape of constituencies, Party of Professionals, Entrepreneurs, and Visionaries, who come together on a Tech_platform, can certainly change politics of today. Right?

In the 60s, When we didn't have food to eat, we created an independent body called ICAR as an agent of change, put agri experts in charge, facilitated awesome collaboration between local knowledge & international expertise, gave them complete freedom of action and eliminated the traditional Indian babudom

Result - We are the largest producer of food in the world

When we didn't have milk, we created an independent body called NDDB as an agent of change, put a hard driving Dr Kurien in charge, gave him complete freedom and eliminated the traditional Indian babudom

Result - We are the largest milk producer in the world

When we found we were lagging in digital payments, we created an independent body called Npci as an agent of change, put bankers and industry experts in charge and eliminated the traditional Indian babudom

Result - We have one of the largest and most used digital payment ecosystem in the world

Today we are afraid we will lose the battle on AI and Technology

We have a solution which has worked very well in the past and has saved us from many a crisis.

The only question is, Do we have the will to implement it?

महाराष्ट्र और कोंकण का हापुस, alphonso, गुजरात का केसर, यह तो आमरस की जान है, उत्तर प्रदेश का दशहरी, मेरी काशी का लंगड़ा, बिहार का जर्दालू, दक्षिण भारत का बंगनपल्ली, तोतापुरी, नीलम, मलगोवा, बंगाल का हिमसागर, ओडिशा और आंध्र प्रदेश का सुवर्णरखा।

यानी, जगह बदलती है, आम का रूप-रंग और उसका स्वाद भी बदल जाता है। आम की ये यात्रा, अब गाँव से, global market तक भी पहुंच रही है।

@manachittooru Another HSR station between Chittoor (Ch:140km) and Kolar (Ch:250km) near Palamaner-Baireddipalle (around 195km) is agreed in principle by the authorities. Let’s wait and watch.

An investor risks money. An entrepreneur risks his or her life. An investor has a portfolio of investments. If a few succeed the investor succeeds. An entrepreneur has only one life. If the company goes down the entrepreneur goes down with it.
The risk that an entrepreneur takes and the risk that an investor takes are asymmetric.
Which is why we as investors have huge respect for founders

An angry lady’s image shouting at a political leader and his party for having stopped the road has gone viral.
That one woman has said what millions of us feel. Stop blocking roads for your political agendas. Stop blocking roads, temples, for VIPs.
People have work, emergencies, lives. This entitlement has gone too far.

[The Hindu @the_hindu]

A woman is allegedly seen losing her cool on Maharashtra cabinet minister Girish Mahajan, over the traffic snarl caused by the BJP morcha in Mumbai on Tuesday evening. This was during a protest march on the issue of the Women's Reservation Bill. She was heard asking the minister to protest on a ground, and not hold up the traffic by marching on the streets. The opposition hit out at the BJP while appreciating the woman.

[NyanChuu🔮🇯🇵🍭 @tanpukunokami]

In Tokyo, there's a cleaning crew that does the impossible every 12 minutes.

They're called TESSEI. They clean the Shinkansen bullet trains at Tokyo Station.

When a train arrives, it stops for 12 minutes before departing again.

Two minutes for passengers to exit.
Three more for the next batch to board.

That leaves seven.

In those seven minutes, one person must:
- Clean 100 seats
- Wipe every tray table
- Vacuum the floor
- Rotate every seat to face the new direction of travel
- Replace all headrest covers
- Check the overhead bins
- Bow to incoming passengers

Seven. Minutes.

They do this hundreds of times a day.

Harvard Business School published a case study about them.
The New York Times called it "the 7-minute miracle."
Tourists now stand on the platform just to watch.

Before they start, they bow to the train.
When they finish, they line up and bow to the passengers.

They're paid by the hour. Many are in their 50s and 60s.

Japan didn't invent cleaning.
They invented the dignity of doing small things perfectly.

@AshwiniVaishnaw @navneetsehgal3 @AmitShah Sir, it’s all in denominator - 816 or 850?

[Trains of India 🇮🇳 @trainwalebhaiya]

When India discarded the Talgo project in 2018 and began work on Train-18, it marked the start of something big.

For a long time, Indian Railways was known as a major importer of rolling stock. From LHB coaches to locomotives, we remained dependent on foreign nations. But this changed in 2018 with a clear vision, to become self-reliant.

That journey began with Train-18, now known as Vande Bharat, India’s first indigenous semi high-speed trainset. It became a benchmark and the beginning of a new era.

Fast forward to today, India is manufacturing its first high-speed trainset, B28, capable of running at 280 km/h. The next generation, B35, is already under planning with a top speed of 350 km/h.

At the same time, Indian Railways is upgrading its fleet with semi high-speed sleeper versions of Vande Bharat. And now, another big step, a broad gauge trainset designed for 220 km/h operations is in the pipeline, a speed no train in India has achieved yet.

2027 is going to be a landmark year. Indian Railways will be testing its fastest trains at 220 km/h, while NHSRCL will be testing the fastest trains in the country at 280 km/h and even 350 km/h.

Truly exciting times ahead for Indian Railways 🚆🔥

Today is a historic day. India has entered 2nd stage of our three stage nuclear power program with the achievement of clriticality of PFBR. Congratulations to every contributor to this critical technology that makes India only the second country to operate a large fast reactor.

[China Railway @ChinaRailways]

Have you ever seen the "double chin" of a high-speed train? This vital safety component, installed at the front of high-speed trains, clears obstacles on the track, protects the wheels and underframe from damage, and ensures smooth and safe operation thanks to its sturdy design.

I have written to Union Railway Minister @AshwiniVaishnaw Ji demanding the immediate creation of the Kazipet Railway Division

Last week railway union leaders had met with me to represent the issue with Union Govt

Our Members of Parliament will handover the request formally to the Railway Minister
