Kharagpur–Amaravati High-Speed Corridor likely to pass through the Eastern Ghats & agency regions of AP.
AP govt reportedly favored the agency alignment covering Araku, Paderu, Chintapalli & Jangareddygudem.
The 1,107 km corridor is planned as an alternative to the NH16.
Glad to share the launch of an ambitious ecological and degraded land restoration drive in Ladakh, aimed at restoring nearly 800 acres of degraded and barren land at Spituk Village in Leh, using a simple & cost-effective freshwater engineering.
The land, lying barren for hundreds of years, is being watered by channelizing the excess water from the recently restored Igoo–Phey Canal, using simple machinery.
Freshwater discharge would eventually hydrate the parched soils, flush out toxic salts, and trigger the natural vegetation growth, transforming wastelands into fertile, moisture-retaining ecosystems.
This initiative builds upon our successful Project Him Sarovar and complements the revival of the Igoo–Phey Canal that now irrigates over 4,300 hectares of land.
By recharging groundwater, binding soil, and enabling sustainable agriculture, I am hopeful, this project will serve as a model for ecological transformation, restoring degraded land and adding more land for agriculture activities in Ladakh.

I donated around 60 litres of breast milk to the government hospital in Hyderabad and Chennai during my first year of post partum!!
Why does it matter? Just 100ml of donor milk can feed a tiny 1kg baby for several days. This donation could potentially support dozens of infants in the NICU. Donating is safe, screened, and desperately needed. Many NICU babies don't have immediate access to their mother's own milk due to medical complications. Donor milk acts as a vital bridge, providing immunity and nutrition during those critical first days.
It serves as a bridge for mothers whose milk may be delayed due to stress, illness,malnutrition or premature birth.
Donor human milk is proven to significantly reduce the incidence of Necrotizing Enterocolitis (a life-threatening gut condition) in premature infants!!!
Check your local govt hospital to see how you can help! #MilkBank #SavingLives #MaternalHealth
Driving through one of the many hidden corners of India, we stopped to check out a ‘car’ that didn’t come from a showroom, but from sheer imagination.
This is the kind of talent that doesn’t wait for perfect conditions, it finds a way to roll anyway. Bas mauka milna chahiye!
Before the world called her a legend, they called her scandalous.
She painted Indian women not as muses, but as deeply human figures — women carrying invisible burdens and living ordinary lives with extraordinary emotional depth.
She crossed borders, broke conventions, challenged the male gaze, and created a visual language that refused to flatter empire or tradition.
Now, decades after her death, Mira Nair brings the fire and fury of Amrita Sher-Gil to the screen with Amri — a film about rebellion, identity, art, desire, and the price of seeing the world differently.
From Paris studios to Indian villages, Amrita reimagined how India could see itself. And perhaps that’s why her story still feels so urgent today.
Scroll to see how a fearless young artist changed the course of modern Indian art forever.

🚨 AT. JUSTIN | INDIA 🇮🇳 | ANDHRA PRADESH | AMARAVATI | APCRDA
As per sources, APCRDA is planning a massive Multi-Modal Integrated Transport Hub in the Amaravati Capital Region — envisioned as a next-generation mobility gateway for Andhra Pradesh. 🚄🏙️
The proposed mega hub is expected to integrate:
✈️ International Airport
🚄 Bullet Train Station
🚆 Indian Railways Station
🚇 Metro Rail Station
🚌 Inter-State Bus Terminal
⛵ Boat Links
— all within a single integrated transport ecosystem, similar to Japan’s world-class Chūō Shinkansen / major metropolitan multi-modal transit hubs concept. 🇯🇵
The vision is to create seamless connectivity between Amaravati, Vijayawada, Hyderabad, Chennai, Bengaluru and future national high-speed corridors, positioning Amaravati as one of India’s most strategically connected capital cities.
If executed, this could become one of the largest integrated transport hubs in South India. 🔥

A Graceful Gupta Era Male Dancer
Note his dress, his karpadi hairstyle & that pearl & turquoise necklace!
Both Bagh & Ajanta murals follow the rules of Chitrasutra of Vishnudharmottara Purana written in the 5th century! Both give a very modern art vibe due to use of such tones!
NEW: Students go nuts after donor announces during his commencement speech that he is paying off all of their senior year debts.
Anil Kochhar and his wife decided to give the gift to all ~200 graduates in N.C. State's family.
Kochhar is the son of Prakash Chand Kochhar, an immigrant from India who studied textile manufacturing in Raleigh.
"My father found not just an education, but an opportunity that allowed him to build a life, support his family, and begin a legacy that continues today. And it will never stop, never," Kochhar said.
What signals that a company is getting AI transformation right?
I asked Tracie Larson, VP and GM of Customer Success, US Financial Services of @Microsoft at #MicrosoftAITour Atlanta.
Her answer:
✅ Executive sponsorship with intent
✅ Governance built in from day one
✅ AI fluency at every level
✅ An AI center of excellence
I'd add a fifth: customer-back design.
As Pam Maynard OBE said: "The most important ingredients in any AI solution are intelligence and trust."
Frontier firms amplify human ambition. That's the standard.

What does generative transformation look like beyond adopting AI tools?
It’s not more pilots.
It’s not more tools.
It’s building a system that compounds value.
At @IBM Think, a few takeaways from my conversation with Blue Polaris:
→ A clear “North Star” that aligns every AI initiative
→ Governance and trust as prerequisites
→ 10x ROI means nothing if you can’t scale
→ A shift from one-off projects to scalable platforms
And the underrated edge? Community. The IBM Partner ecosystem is accelerating learning in real time.
Generative transformation is a discipline.
