Loyal Samsung customer for 25+ years (phones, AC, washing machine, refrigerator), but this experience is frustrating. Fridge delivered on May 9 via Amazon, yet installation is still pending after 4 days. Repeated follow-ups, no action. Please resolve. @SamsungIndia

Marxist MP @JohnBrittas quotes rules in the Rajya Sabha to compel @SadanandanMash to remove the artificial limbs conferred upon him due to the violent actions of the CPI(M) from public view.

John's display of such intolerance towards an opposition MP reveals his true character and origins. Left brutality continues to haunt leaders like Masterji, even in Rajyasabha.

@TrinetraWrath With due respect, these ads are targetted for the medical tourists from middle East. There are quite a large number of such middle East visitors who come to Kerala seeking medical treatment. Please understand the context before spreading such messages.

Thank you for your attention to this matter! @realDonaldTrump 😉😜

Trump's 'dead economy' jab at India & 25% tariffs? Big miss. 🇮🇳's economy is thriving—global investments pour in, tech & manufacturing soar. Who's hurting? US importers & consumers footing the bill. Multipolar trade is here, & India’s not the one scrambling. #IndiaEconomy #Trade

Bharat Mata Ki Jai! #OperationSindoor 🇮🇳

@cvliphate @realDonaldTrump @republic India’s precise BrahMos missile strikes in Operation Sindoor reportedly forced Pakistan’s retreat, prompting them to seek U.S. intervention for peace. Pak initiated a ceasefire via hotline with India, halting escalations after intense clashes.

Aarati,daughter of Ramachandranji of Kerala, who was killed in #pehelgamterroristattack, thanks Indian defense forces and Prime Minister @narendramodi for eliminating terrorist camps. She also hailed the forces for giving the right name, #OperationSindoor for the operation-a revenge for taking away her Mother's sindhoor

Story of Pazhassi Raja: The Lion of Kerala who defied Tipu Sultan and the British Empire

You've likely heard of Chhatrapati Shivaji's bravery, the Cholas' greatness, and the mighty Guptas and Mauryas.

But have you heard of Pazhassi Raja? If you've visited southern Kerala, you've probably noticed the region's remarkably well-preserved ancient temples, which seem to have withstood the test of time.

While much of India was ravaged by invaders, how did Travancore, in southern Kerala, manage to safeguard its heritage and preserve Dharma?

Although northern Kerala briefly came under Tipu Sultan's rule, his dream of conquering and looting wealthy Travancore remained just that, a dream!

Here's the fascinating story of Kerala Varma Pazhassi Raja, who stood between the invaders and Dharma, something that our textbooks never told us.

ശബരിമല മകരവിളക്കിന് ദീപാരാധനയ്ക്കു ശേഷം നട തുറക്കുമ്പോൾ ദേവസ്വം മന്ത്രി അവിടെ ഉണ്ടായിരിക്കണം എന്നൊരു നിയമമോ ആചാരമോ ഇല്ല. ഈശ്വരവിശ്വാസം ഇല്ലെങ്കിൽ മന്ത്രിയെന്ന പ്രിവിലേജ് ഉപയോഗിച്ച്, നടയ്ക്കു മുന്നിലെത്തി വെറുതേ നിൽക്ക��ന്നത് എന്തിനാണ്? നട തുറക്കുമ്പോൾ ഒരാൾ മാത്രം മൂർത്തിയെ തൊഴാതെ നിൽക്കുന്നത് മര്യാദകേടാണ്. അതിനേക്കാൾ നല്ലത് ആ സമയം ദേവസ്വം ഓഫീസിൽ പോയിരുന്ന് ലേശം കാറ്റ് കൊള്ളുന്നതാണ്.

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!
