Can folks like @letsblinkit @SwiggyInstamart @ZeptoNow @amazonnow @bigbasket_com etc. incorporate a feature where customers can choose no-rush delivery? Life could become so simple for so many people.

#IMPORTANT

A group of concerned citizens (mostly mothers) from the ‘My Right To Breathe’ campaign sought a brief 15-minute meeting with the Chief Minister of Delhi, @gupta_rekha, to convey their anguish and present a list of demands regarding the #AirPollution emergency in the capital. The @MRTB_India campaign has been consistently raising this issue for years.

Yet, despite repeated requests, the Chief Minister’s Office has refused to grant an appointment. The latest rejection has come today.

What could be more pressing “official engagements” than addressing a public health emergency in the national capital?

Do our elected representatives not have a duty towards those who elected them? After all, this is a group of mothers worried for their children, appealing to another mother for just a few minutes of her time.

Also, when a government chooses silence over dialogue and outright rejects public engagement on an issue this urgent, what options are left for citizens? The @CMODelhi should answer.

One has to be truly delusional to come up with such stuff.

It’s a horror, this road. We need a website with details of all the contractors and budgets to be published. Stat!

Hosa Road: A narrow village road turned into a major city road without proper planning. No standard road width, alignment & drainage. A perfect example of what’s wrong with Bengaluru!

@diptendudip Not really. The government has the capability and the data to build the platform. Citizens should demand it.

Dear @nitin_gadkari

We need a public website that shows:

> Which contractor built road
> Which babu approved it
> Total cost & ministers involved
> Firm responsible for maintenance

Contractors are becoming billionaires while people die on roads

Bring real accountability now!

[aShadeofHuman @arpitamukherjee]

I genuinely do not understand how a statement suggesting any one human is valued at billions doesn’t come across as magnanimously absurd.

Elon Musk achieved yet another major milestone Wednesday, becoming the first ever person worth $500 billion. Musk, who became the first person ever worth $400 billion or more in December, is $150 billion ahead of runner-up Larry Ellison—and half-way to becoming the world’s first trillionaire.

It shouldn’t be surprising, but yet it is. Not one media house is covering anything about the aspects around boycott of weapons - ports being the center of action. What’s up guys? Forgotten what you became journalists for?

[aShadeofHuman @arpitamukherjee]

That’s a brand taking a stand.

Website creators across platforms, app makers included, stop putting an arrow where you’re taking the audience nowhere. The arrow is a sign indicative of moving ahead. If that’s not what you’re doing for your audience, REMOVE IT.

Times of India is still doing reporting. Why is no other publication speaking about this? Who is responsible? How is this being fixed?

12 hours of rainfall has brought the city to a standstill, causing water logging across Bengaluru. Civic authorities must take measures to address this recurring crisis, sustainably. @jhatkaadotorg
