The @naralokesh data centre water debate has everyone arguing past each other.
“Data centres will drain Andhra Pradesh dry. There is no environmental flow after water allocation”
I have seen these wrong claims everywhere this week. I am a water resources engineer from IIT Bombay. I did my master’s thesis on Polavaram and just finished a 29 year daily simulation of the reservoir. Let me show you what the Godavari actually does with its water every year. 🧵 (1/15)
Your 20-minute videos need multiple retakes, and somehow half the facts are still incorrect.
I’ve watched his live speeches in Gujarat. Hours. No script. Yet somehow you’re the one who can’t stop talking about him. Every post, every rant, every comment—Modi.🚩

FCRA: Foreign Contribution (Regulation) Act
➜ Foreign Contribution (Regulation) Act (FCRA) is the law that governs how Indian individuals, associations, NGOs, trusts and companies may receive and use money, securities or articles sent to them from a source outside India. It is administered by the Ministry of Home Affairs (MHA)
➜ #FCRA does three things:
💠 It identifies who may accept foreign contributions, and on what conditions.
💠 It specifies how that money must be received, accounted for, and reported.
💠 It restricts a narrow, defined set of foreign-funded activities that could affect India’s sovereignty, security or public order.
➜ FCRA establishes a clear, rules-based process for every organisation that wishes to receive foreign contributions in India

After years of staying mostly silent here, I wanted to share what this moment truly means for us.
Reaching orbit with Vikram-1 is the culmination of an incredibly long and difficult journey. Over the last few years, Team Skyroot pushed relentlessly through missed aggressive deadlines, technical hurdles, and moments when the finish line kept moving. We never lost hope. Not once.
This success feels like redemption for every late night, every difficult choice, and every person who refused to give up on the dream.
The flight has given us a treasure of high-fidelity data. We will use every bit of it to make our vehicle subsystems significantly more robust and to optimize performance across the entire system.
For any launch company, achieving orbit is the single hardest milestone. Productionizing this capability, turning this success into reliable, repeatable flights, is now our central focus.
To every member of Team Skyroot who carried this dream when it was hardest, and to everyone who stood with us through the quiet years: thank you. This is your victory too.
To the entire nation that has celebrated this achievement with so much warmth and pride, thank you! It has meant more to us than words can express.
The real work begins now. 🚀
@SkyrootA
If SSR had directed The Odyssey he would have made it the greatest movie in the world.
Just because he is a Hollywood director doesn’t mean people should hype him so much @ssrajamouli can easily outshine him
