I have qoschen. When I pass through immigration control, e-gates or desks & they let me in, in a foreign country, what is my nationality status? The nation has now been told, our passports do not (not) confirm nationalty though in the nationality section it mentions 'Indian' !

Kolkata will build deep expertise in modern tram operations and eventually become a consultant for other Indian cities looking to introduce them.

We could see a trajectory similar to the Kochi Water Metro, whose experience is now helping create water transit projects in other cities.

@arpitayodapress The city is being primed for a gujarati takeover

Air India One has a press briefing room. No Indian journalist has been on it since 2014

Calling this the end of a "Lutyens freebie" is dumb. This was NEVER about free flights. It was about access + accountability + ability to report beyond vishwaguru PR. https://t.co/MXYiE1T4wn

The West Bengal Government has engaged RITES to prepare a comprehensive blueprint for reviving and modernising Kolkata's historic tram network.

According to Transport Minister Arjun Singh, the first priority will be restoring existing tram routes. Once the core network is stabilised, the government plans to explore extensions to Salt Lake and New Town, while also studying new links along the Hooghly and Adi Ganga connecting Kalighat and Dakshineswar.

The vision goes beyond preserving heritage The government aims to position trams as a modern, zero emission public transport system integrated with the Kolkata Metro, while also exploring PPP models and even pursuing UNESCO World Heritage recognition for the tram network.

If implemented, this would mark the biggest revival of Kolkata's tram system in decades.

🚨 #ExpressInvestigation | The Union Minister of State for Agriculture Bhagirath Choudhary received a ₹99.03 lakh subsidy for a commercial cucumber farming project under a scheme run by the ministry he serves in.

While the final approval was granted by an NHB project approval committee that does not include the minister, Choudhary is the ex-officio Vice-President of the NHB board that oversees its functioning.

The project, worth ₹1.99 crore, was among 467 approved under the scheme in 2025.

My last message :

Someone who has grown up eating food as bland and insipid as boiled water for their whole life shouldn't be commenting about egg, meat or anything related to it.

[Abhinaba @dj0090]

@ranjona We know how it is, it's clear as day.

@DivaJain2 Madam we don't need lectures from you. Amader bepar amra bujhe nebo, Bengalis have fought against the British, we will fight the Gujratis also if needed.

[Samyak Ghosh 🌈 @GhoshSamyak]

No one asked but here she is lecturing Bengalis about their culture! The moral righteousness and feeling of superiority that Jains and other upper-castes have is worth studying. It is not delinked from their vegetarianism sermons. Absolutely insufferable lot!

People have no idea how these ultra corrupt religious organizations work.

[Darab Farooqui @darab_farooqui]

Thank you for giving me an opportunity to talk about ISKCON and Akshaya Patra.

The claim that 'no one ever had issues' is simply untrue.

ISKCON's meals have been fought over for more than a decade.

In Karnataka, the Right to Food campaign and the Jan Swasthya Abhiyan formally wrote to the government in 2018 asking it to terminate the Akshaya Patra midday meal contract, arguing the organisation was imposing its religious beliefs on children.

Akshaya Patra refused to add onion and garlic despite a state directive, and threatened to pull out of its contract.

Children there complained the food was bland and ate less of it.

So here goes the tasty meal argument for a toss.

It goes further...

A 2015 CAG report found that 187 samples of ISKCON-prepared meals failed to meet prescribed standards, with negative feedback from 75% of children and teachers, and that less foodgrain was served than required.

In Andhra Pradesh, the foundation openly defied a National Institute of Nutrition directive making eggs mandatory.

And in Chandigarh, the education department found ISKCON's no-onion-no-garlic food unpalatable and did not award it the contract at all.

In Odisha, the state had to quietly arrange for schools to source and boil eggs separately just to work around the ban.

So the objection is not new and not invented for Bengal. The same fight has run in Karnataka, Andhra, Odisha, Chandigarh, for years.

But why is it louder in Bengal?

Two reasons.

First, Bengal is one of the most non-vegetarian states in India, where fish and egg are not optional extras but the core of how people eat.

Second, this is a brand new government removing an egg that was already being served.

You notice a thing more when it is taken away from you than when it was never offered. That is not propaganda. That is people defending food that was already on their children's plates.
