Urgent need of a zebra crossing, speed breaker, signal near Chrysalis High school Varthur opposite Prestige lakeside habitat. I have spoken to multiple people from BBMP and KRDCL pls help soon @GBA_office@ICCCBengaluru
India's peak power demand hit 260 GW yesterday. New all-time record. During a heatwave with 47°C temperatures across North India.
The grid held. No blackouts. That sentence alone is an engineering achievement most people will not appreciate.
Five years ago India had chronic power deficits. Load shedding was normal. In 2023, peak demand hit 243 GW and several states struggled. In April 2026, the grid delivered 260 GW without a single major failure.
What changed: 26.5 GW of new capacity added in FY26 — largest annual addition in a decade. Solar alone contributed 18 GW. New HVDC transmission corridors connecting surplus regions to deficit ones. Battery storage deployments cushioning peak load.
But the margin is razor thin. India's grid is designed for about 270 GW. We just touched 260 GW. That is 96% utilisation during peak hours. One more heatwave spike or an unexpected plant outage and the buffer disappears.
This is why every power stock hit 52-week highs. The market sees what the headlines miss — India needs $150 billion in power infrastructure investment over five years just to keep up. Data centres, EVs, semiconductor fabs, industrial expansion — all need reliable 24/7 power. The grid is the bottleneck holding everything else together.
@policybazaar@PBHelpDesk I’ve been unable to renew my health insurance for the past 10 days. Despite multiple follow‑ups, your executives are unable to resolve the issue. My policy expires on 12 Apr, and I’m concerned about continuity & coverage impact. Kindly help urgently.
@blrcitytraffic@wftrps please look into this video, this auto guy had blinking lights, which was very disturbing while driving. Especially in the road where there are no street lights was not allowing us to concentrate on the road. Strict action needs to be taken.
Hi @TTDevasthanams, we booked Special Entry Darshan under Booking ID IDJ24122518179536. There are two names in the booking—one is correct, but the other was entered wrongly by mistake. Aadhaar details are correct. Could you please guide us on how to update the name? 🙏 #TTDHelp

We trust the leadership of PM Modi and HM Amit Shah.
Looking at Amit Shah’s swift action, it’s certain that the perpetrators of this dastardly attack will not be spared.
