This is a photograph of Albert Einstein with an unassuming Indian man you probably haven’t heard enough about. He spent his life working on one idea: women should be able to live with dignity and make their own choices. Thread.

I recently had dinner with Dr Devi Shetty, the founder of Narayana Hospitals. For those who don't know him, he's the guy who figured out how to do open heart surgery for a few hundred dollars when the same procedure costs a bomb in the US. Narayana has 18,000 beds across India, and if you ask most middle-class people in Bangalore about it, they'll speak highly of it.

There was one thing I kept thinking about over and over again after meeting him.

Narayana's market cap is around ₹38,000 crore. Now compare that to pretty much any half-decent financial services business in India, and it'll be valued more than that, including Zerodha. A brokerage, worth more than a hospital chain, that has probably saved hundreds of thousands of lives.

I get the arguments. If you're a fund manager/analyst, you can immediately explain it away using margins, capex, asset-light vs asset-heavy, and all that, and I'm not saying the market is wrong.

But it's still a strange world we've built, where the businesses closest to money get valued the highest, and the ones doing the hard and essential things get priced like boring utilities. A hospital carries physical infrastructure, enormous liability, thin margins and the actual weight of keeping people alive. And somehow that's worth less than a platform for buying and selling stocks.

I don't have a clean take on this. All of this just felt odd.

Ps: Nothing here is investment advice. For that, go to @zerodhavarsity

#WATCH | Chennai, Tamil Nadu: Subramania Bharathi, son of a daily wager working in a brick manufacturing unit, cleared the UPSC exam with the help of the State government's Naan Mudhalvan scheme.

Sharing his experience, he says, "My journey has been rather miraculous... This is my first attempt... With the support of Naan Mudhalvan, I was able to succeed in my very first attempt. I owe a lot to the government’s Naan Mudhalvan scheme and to the service coaching center. They were instrumental in my preparation. I started this journey when I was just 18 years old, without any guidance. My mother and father were my first inspiration, and they motivated me to serve my nation in the best way possible. I chose civil services as the best platform to contribute to the people at the grassroots level, like us..." (11.03)

Welcome the announcements on bilateral trade following the conversation between PM @narendramodi and President @realDonaldTrump.

This will create more jobs, spur growth and promote innovation in both economies. It will strengthen ‘Make in India’ endeavors and encourage trusted technology ties. The opportunities in our economic engagement are truly vast and we are confident of realizing them.

A robust economic relationship is the strongest foundation for our strategic partnership.

One more performance by the wandering flautist who came to my doorstep yesterday, Shri Ramaniah whom so many of you appreciated. I felt tears welling up when he left to play on another street with hardly anyone opening the door to him. If you want to support him, his number is 9611049957.

In Andhra Pradesh, we saw those who swore to protect environment ruthlessly cut down trees, destroyed forests and enabled the smuggling of our vital ecological resources for selfish gain. And then, on the other end of the spectrum, we have a humble person whose life was a total dedication to nature - Saalumarada Thimmakka, the woman known simply as the "Mother of Trees."

From a small village in Karnataka, Thimmakka and her husband found their life's purpose when they couldn't have children. They chose to raise a family of green. With pure love and daily labour, they gifted the world a breathtaking canopy, planting and nurturing over 8,000 trees, including 375 majestic banyan trees. Her life was not about seeking power or wealth; it was a vow of unconditional love to Mother Earth.

Today, at 114 years young, this legendary protector of nature has finally left us. Her life is a powerful lesson in true public service. On behalf of JanaSena, I offer my deepest respects to the great Saalumarada Thimmakka.

We have lost our mother of Trees, but her spirit remains with us. She continues to inspire us all to work toward environmental conservation, to plant trees in our communities, and to become the responsible citizens our planet desperately needs.

With Google's historic $15B investment to build India’s largest AI data centre hub in Vizag, Andhra Pradesh CM N. Chandrababu Naidu @ncbn has demonstrated his Gr8 ability to attract marquee investments.
This can be the beginning of a new wave of attracting global hyperscalers and data centres that will provide enormous computing power & storage capacity to organisations worldwide.
The future of India’s digital economy will be dependent on its ability to attract cutting edge technologies - high performing compute - CPUs & GPUs, hardware & networking connectivity. Congrats @naralokesh Brilliant work!

Yes, he was a man who left gigantic footprints on the ad industry…

But what I will remember most is not the campaigns he crafted or the brands he built, but his hearty laugh and his irrepressible zest for life.
He reminded us that even in the serious business of persuasion, joy and humanity must never be forgotten.

Alwida, my friend. You made life richer for all of us.

Om Shanti 🙏🏽
