but Airbnb offered just Rs. 3,500 and closed my caseScreenshots attached prove broken promises. As a 59yo Bangalore lawyer, I’m ready to sue—this is unfair! Fix this now or face legal & public backlash. Pls RT! #AirbnbFail #TravelScam #ConsumerRightsIndia #AirbnbIndia #Bangalore

@Airbnb @airbnb_in Airbnb failed me in India! Case #HMAZZJ98ZD: Paid Rs. 38K for two bookings on Oct 18, both canceled last-minute, stranding me after a 200km trip. Sr. Mgr. Aman Malhotra promised a Rs. 22,050 voucher for my hardship (paid out-of-pocket)

@LawrenceMelwin1 @BBCNews @CNN @Reuters @AP @AlJazeera @SkyNews @LeMonde_EN What tax do you pay. You've no right here in India, you are an alien and a deported convicted criminal. No country entertains a rapist money launder and a convicted drug peddler/user.

@SampathKumarINC @kcvenugopalmp Not just important people. Every life, even that of dogs that maybe transported is as important as important leaders.

@IamKatochA @TheVijayMallya When the FM has conceded that twice the amount has been recovered. What remains?? How does it matter what life he led. Extravagant or miserly is not in context.

@Deblinabose17 @Sahilmuhsin09 @ssaratht Karachi bakery is owned by hyderabadi Indians. Get your facts right. Lot of people read your shit. Be credible

[bohemianrascal @bohemianrascal]

@Deblinabose17 @ssaratht He employs 2500 people a majority from villages. You are no competition to him. This is just a canary. Grow up. Find some credible stories. Can an IAS officer vanish

@sundarpichai I'm aspiring to create the a cutting edge crypto currency using the willow. It'll be called Billow - to fill with air and move with the wind. Are there any geeks here who think it's a good idea to create a new CC, far more advanced than the btc. After all the world needs more CC

@ShouryArya Marijuana is not a drug. It's weed. It's a plant. It's still legal in Rajastan in the form of bhang. A plethora of research demonstrates it too. G7 and developed countries have legalised it. The origin of it is in India 5000 years ago. Time to legalise the plant.

@SUBWAY I'm here at the Chennai airport getting myself a salad and a bag of bingo. I'm told the bingo is sold only in combo with a coke and a cookie. Ain't that stupid and ridiculous. I just want a bag of chips with my meal. Why are you forcing me to buy the coke and the cookie

@biharigurl Prey tell me if Mr. Yogi is so strict then in the first place why is it happening.

[bohemianrascal @bohemianrascal]

@DesiSanatani @TimesAlgebraIND When the PM says v'll not spare the corrupt, does he really mean he won't spare them & will admit them in his party. How else does one read about the fact that of the 25 politicians investigated by ED, all of them joined the BJP and no investigation against them have proceeded.

On @Linkedin, @Microsoft and their wokeness.

As an Indian institution, Ola is for genuine actions on diversity. We run one of the largest women only automotive plants. Not 1 out of 10 lines, or a small section, but the whole plant! Almost 5000 women now and will grow to tens of thousands in the coming years. And regarding gender inclusivity, we don’t need lectures from western companies on how to be inclusive. Our culture didn’t need pronouns to be inclusive for thousands of years. On a personal note, I had visited Ayodhya last year and learnt about how transgenders had been accorded special respect in our culture from ancient times! Here’s a short video from our national broadcaster DD on this - https://t.co/TGxfSjtM0F.

On the other hand, the pronouns issue I wrote about is a woke political ideology of entitlement which doesn’t belong in India. I wouldn’t have waded into this debate but clearly Linkedin has presumed Indians need to have pronouns in our life, and that we can’t criticise it. They will bully us into agreeing with them or cancel us out. And if they can do this to me, I’m sure the average user stands no chance. As a founder and CEO, this western DEI system has a major impact on my business as it grows an entitlement mindset in our professional lives and I will fight it.

This situation brings me to the need for us to build our own Indian tech platforms. I’m not against global tech companies. But as an Indian citizen, I feel concerned that my life will be governed by western Big Tech monopolies and we will be culturally subsumed as the above experience shows. This is not about Ola or any of my companies. Ola is too small to make any impact against this. I want to confront this forced ideology as a free thinking Indian and do what I can in my capacity. So here are the actions I’m taking. Putting my money where my mouth is.
⁃While we can’t do anything about Linkedin’s monopoly overnight, I’m making a commitment to work with the Indian developer community to build a DPI social media framework. DPIs like UPI, ONDC, Aadhaar etc are a uniquely Indian idea and is even more needed in the world of social media. The only “community guidelines” should be the Indian law. No corporate person should be able to decide what will be banned. Data should be owned by the creators instead of being owned by the corporates who make money using our data and then lecture us on “community guidelines”!
⁃Since LinkedIn is owned by Microsoft and Ola is a big customer of Azure, we’ve decided to move our entire workload out of Azure to our own @Krutrim cloud within the next week. It is a challenge as all developers know, but my team is so charged up about doing this.
⁃Any other developer who wants to move out of Azure, we will offer a full year of free cloud usage. As long as you don’t go back to Azure after that! Mail us on [email protected]. Offer is perpetually open!

It's rather sad that the ruling dispensation has not made any efforts to digitally accept the Adhar card over the official digilocker app. I was denied my vote because of these incompete nincompoops. #ECI

@AbhishBanerj How can we trust. That's a tall order to ask for trust. A SoP is what's necessary. The process should eliminate trust and be reliable on a fool proof system.

@swankhede_IRS Why don't you talk about corruption and how it's as much or much more a menace on society. I think you are better equipped to do that. What's your take on arresting affluent young men and destroying their future if the ransom demanded is not paid.

@ShouryArya My fellow Indians who should and must reflect on the values of justice, liberty and equality are the people in power the bureaucrats, the politicians and the law makers. These are the ones who have the power to violate and flout and they do
