Blinkit ambulance saved my grandma's life today.

Things went south suddenly, but they reached home in 8 minutes and drove her to the emergency ward promptly.

Forever grateful. No hospital ambulance could have managed this response time.

More to come. We will not stop till every inch of our land is reclaimed.

What nonsense by @IndiGo6E unable to web check in. It shows seat included, but I haven't included or selected any seats. There is no option here to skip and auto assign as well. It moves forward only when i pay for my seat.

@aravind Flight tickets in India are getting unreasonably expensive. Recently due to Durga Puja rush paid 16k for a distance of 500km. That was 3x of normal price. I understand festivals and all but 3x is too much.

@chiragbarjatya Kya suggest kiya tha bhai?

[sashaaaaaa @ThRandomTalk]

@VedantRusty Just curious…how was the opinion of the locals on such issues?

[sashaaaaaa @ThRandomTalk]

@IndianTechGuide Really pathetic decision. Airline companies are looting people in the name of festivals and holidays.

@kunalkamra88 It makes you wonder how certain narratives sustain themselves for so long, who continues to keep them alive and what drives this level of attention. In a world that moves on from almost everything, six years is a very long time to remain a topic of conversation.

[sashaaaaaa @ThRandomTalk]

@kunalkamra88 Even for a moment if we assume that he was innocent, IT HAS LITERALLY BEAN 6 YEARS AND PEOPLE STILL TALK ABOUT HIM.

It's honestly fascinating when you think about it. We live in a world where trends die in 48 hours, controversies are forgotten in a week. But he's still relevant

Umar is not in jail for speech. He is in jail as he is the prime conspirator of Delhi Riots which killed hundreds.

There are more than 30K pages of FIR and records. If you can't read that much, read orders in case of multiple bail applications, each rejected by court with data.

If NDTV puts out an ad for jobs now, all these jobless wonders would apply for those jobs. Hypocrites. This is no less than verbal lynching/assault/violence.

@Phunsukwangduji Shame on you Abhijeet Dipke

[Mayukh @mayukh_panja]

I see an irresponsible lady who brought her child to a potentially volatile setting, being handled with dignity and care by female members of the law enforcement.

This fills me with hope.

In contrast to many "first world" countries where protesters are regularly shot at, and where female protesters are violently manhandled by male officers, this image shows me that, despite her many obvious and glaring flaws, India and her machinery, at their core retain a great deal of compassion, even while executing unsavoury duties.

As an African,
I hope India’s 1.4 billion people realize this recent wave of bad-faith PR and viral racist attacks is coordinated to pressure India into opening its domestic markets to foreign billionaires.

Elon completely dodged a simple math.

"Benefiting the average citizen" has been the foreign corporate trojan horse since time immemorial.

Remember Bill Gates pushing patented GM seeds across Africa and Asia under the banner of "saving poor farmers from starvation"

only for farmers to end up trapped in debt and dependent on Western monopolies for seeds every season?

I’m yet to see a foreign billionaire care about ordinary people when market extraction isn't the real goal.

Elon never names an actual price for those rural areas. Starlink charges $27/month in its cheapest market (Rwanda), plus massive hardware fees. Who in remote rural India is paying that?
domestic internet costs around $4/month?!

The irony is wild: Washington bans TikTok and forces ByteDance out because foreign tech supposedly threatens "national security" and data sovereignty, yet expects an emerging superpower like India to hand over its skies on request.

Any sensible person should see this for what it truly is.

[sashaaaaaa @ThRandomTalk]

Saw this video on insta and i am honestly not able to figure out what wrong did the men in the video do?

[sashaaaaaa @ThRandomTalk]

@DealsDhamaka They are here to stay. Even if for some reason the govt falls, they will again win. All the problems highlighted are real but there is absolutely no other credible option we have. I cannot imagine what will happen if the opposition comes to power.

[Kunal Kushwaha @kunalstwt]

5G services are available in 99.9% of all districts across India.

The current average cost of mobile data in India sits around $0.09 per GB.

Honest question: where is Starlink needed actually and how can it beat these prices?

[Aravind @aravind]

Regulate reels. If not at least ban their monetization. A lot of issues for India created from outside will end.

An average Indian uses 28 GB data at one of the world's lowest rates. Of that nearly 20 GB is used for useless dance and drama reels.

Freeing that will free a lot of capital for Indian ISPs to provide internet to very remote areas.

And also better internet to serious customers and content makers using it for educational content, work, video conferencing and such.

Squeezing Indian companies to provide cheap data that's only used by India's adversaries without a challenge to program Indians using fake news and perversion is suicide.

[sashaaaaaa @ThRandomTalk]

@theswapnilsri Jio made internet affordable for the masses. But the cost structure for Starlink is totally different.

Yes Starlink can serve remote areas, but it won't bridge India's digital divide at mass scale. The people who need affordable internet most are unlikely to be its customers.
