@ZeptoNow I have received a defective Portronics Luxcell Wireless Mini 10K Power Bank, and the product description clearly mentions a 3-day replacement policy. However, customer care is rude and they disconnect in the middle of the conversation, ++

My order was updated as delivered even though it was not. I raised a complaint multiple times through the app, but it's getting resolved automatically without further action. I could not reach customer care through any means.
A gracious note by a fine statesman.
I was fortunate to hear @TRBRajaa’s passionate speech at India Maritime Week 2025. His message to businesses was clear:
TN gov will stand by their side throughout their journey. More importantly, trust Tamil Nadu’s talent & system.
@Srinivas_091294 Most Chennai startups move to BLR for VC funding. Recently, a 3D printing startup with a well establized base in Taramani is moving its entire unit to BLR. They are asking the employees to relocate. Investors are not allowing Chennai to grow.
@BhavaniRavi_ This happens during peak hours. On my office route,I get stuck exactly there regularly. As someone pointed out,the toll has been removed, so the road is wide with 8 lanes, but it gets squeezed into a not-so-wide 6lane stretch. There's also a crossing at Perungudi & the WTC factor
@DealsDhamaka 25 LPA literally means you'll get around 17 LPA after deductions. On that 17 LPA, you again pay around 20% taxes on everything. Your spending power will be only around 12-14 LPA.
@HariraamTrajan@ChennaiREUpdate This should be Deloitte India, sime they were operating in a flex space earlier in perungudi other than tnagar https://t.co/qquwxSbGsC USI is operating only out of Ascendas and they are expanding there. Both are different entities.
@ChennaiREUpdate Bank of Melon (previously Inautix) moved to Embassy. Those floors are now filled by Deloitte USI and other companies. Deloitte USI recently leased one more floor in Ascendas, and they are actively expanding in Chennai
I’m a Gujarati. Born and brought up in Chennai.
Tamil is the language I heard on the streets. In buses. In shops. In friendships. In daily life.
It shaped me as much as Gujarati did. So when this debate comes up, I don’t see it as North vs South. I see it as respect vs entitlement.
Yes, Hindi matters. If you want to do business with the North, work there, travel there of course it helps. I use it too. No insecurity about that.
But there’s a difference between learning a language
and forcing a language. Forcing never builds unity. It only builds resistance.
The South doesn’t have “one language”. It has many. Each with centuries of history, poetry, emotion, identity.
These languages won’t die in one generation. They’ll die slowly. When people stop valuing them. When children stop hearing them. When others refuse to learn them.
And that’s how cultures disappear.
If I choose to live in Tamil Nadu,
do business here, build my life here… then learning Tamil isn’t “adjustment”.
It’s gratitude. It’s saying….This place gave me opportunity. I’ll give it respect.
India was never meant to sound the same everywhere.
Our power is in our accents.
Our scripts. Our stories.
Many languages. One country.
That’s civilisation.
Pongal Test - a tradition the BCCI chose to abandon.
Much like Australia’s Boxing Day Test, India once had an iconic cricketing tradition, the Pongal Test, held every January at the historic Chepauk Stadium, Chennai.
This annual Test match coincided with the Thai Pongal festival, celebrating the harvest season in Tamil Nadu. Introduced during the 1959-60 season, the Pongal Test quickly became a beloved fixture at Chepauk, India’s most successful Test venue with 14 test victories.
Despite its success, the tradition waned after the 1988 West Indies tour due to BCCI's fckn rotation policy and a packed international schedules. Although Test matches were regular at Chepauk, none was on the Pongal week..since then.
If you look at the BCCI's media rights for home internationals , it have either remained stagnant or not seen an increase, unlike other rights like IPL or ICC that have doubled/ tripled over the years.
Turning & Bringing back these events into annual fixtures similar to Boxing Day Tests in other cricketing nations, can increase the value of home media rights and generate more interest in Test cricket.
Even Virat Kohli pushed for having tests only 5 historic test centres, only have rotation policies for ODIs and T20Is but not for Tests!
With BGT 2027 scheduled in Jan/Feb , hopefully we will see the comeback of Pongal Test need to be held atleast every two years when ENG & AUS tour for Tests in January.
@TheEmissaryCo@Deshpacito661 🤡 How does India subsidize TN ? It's actually the opposite. TN developed itself through socio-economic policies and is now subsidizing India, while also taking care of its own spendings.
@AdiSpeaX@UpdatesChennai I think TRB specifically mentioned high value jobs. He doesn't usually specify this for the manufacturing jobs. Hoping it to be true.
