@TheBengalIndex @Nabarun204 @TheBengalIndex any clue why is the delay in announcing semi-conductor policy of Bengal? Is there a proposed timeline? It was supposed to come during BGBS
What a wonderful idea @yashoazad! There could be no more fitting tribute than a Dr ManMohan Singh University -- provided it maintains standards worthy of the scholar-PM. All that's needed is a generous benefactor, or several, to start making this idea a reality. And then a lot of hard work to build it up to world-class levels.
Something to reflect upon for us, the most beneficiaries of reform, that personal greed is not same as believing on market force.

I remember him telling me when we met at the @UN in NY about how after becoming PM he returned Diwali gifts to their senders. I asked why, He said they were too expensive, some concealed very generous gifts within, and as a diabetic he didn't eat sweets anyway. I gently admonished him, saying exchanging gifts at Diwali, especially sweets, was a tradition and returning them would seem discourteous, if not churlish. He listened, but said nothing.
When he came back to the @UN the following year he smiled at me and said, "Shashi I took your advice." I wondered what it was I had been presumptuous enough to advise my Prime Minister on. "What you said about Diwali tradition," he reminded me. "I do return the expensive gifts, but i no longer send the sweets back." His smile became broader. "I distribute them to my staff instead!"
@MamataOfficial Please check the recent PLFS Report @MamataOfficial . Self employment earning of women is the least in West Bengal. Earning - gender- gap in West Bengal is also very high in self employed workers. Number of units are not the issue in WB. The value generated by the units are low.
12 days after Ganesh Chaturthi and still the celebrations are on in full screaming glory. Are there no rules regarding endless high decibel sounds in this city! When (what time and what day) will this end? @MumbaiPolice
Dear Vinesh, It is said that sport is a celebration of human will. I have known that to be true many times in my career but never has it resonated more than today. As I look around me, I see a nation and its people celebrate your unyielding resolve.
You are a fighter – on and off the mat. Through you, we are learning what it means to never lose the fight in us, even as a loss weighs heavily. You embody the true spirit of a warrior.
Not all victories look alike. Some end up as a glittering souvenir in a cabinet but the ones that matter more find their way into the stories we tell our children. And every child in this country will know the champion you are. Every child will grow up wanting to face life with the resilience you have displayed. I thank you for that.
Respect,
Abhinav Bindra

माँ कुश्ती मेरे से जीत गई मैं हार गई माफ़ करना आपका सपना मेरी हिम्मत सब टूट चुके इससे ज़्यादा ताक़त नहीं रही अब।
अलविदा कुश्ती 2001-2024 🙏
आप सबकी हमेशा ऋणी रहूँगी माफी 🙏🙏
Vinesh Phogat disqualification on the verge of a gold & a sealed silver is a national sporting tragedy. Shocking failure also by team, contingent bosses & coach. Wrestlers’ weight management issues when fighting on consecutive days are well known. It’s a management disaster.
Never in the history of Indian Olympic sport has been a turnaround like @Phogat_Vinesh …now nobody dare say she’s assured a silver. She’s going for gold. There IS justice…There WILL be justice…
