@amazonIN - What a fabulous job in taking customers round and round trying to find a chat or call option. The new customer service button is an endless loop of articles. What do I do if I need to chat with an actual human?

@gissellem_02 and I have lost all hope.

[Leejohn Vaz @leejohnvaz]

@MumbaiMetro3 - When are you going to get the network services fixed? In a place like Mumbai its ridiculous to have no network underground.

@airtelindia @reliancejio @ViCustomerCare
Have you'll reached an understanding yet?

[Leejohn Vaz @leejohnvaz]

@MumbaiPolice You guys ought to have a cyber cell to deal with such issues. It will be the most convenient to nip such online issues.

@MumbaiPolice - This message doing the rounds in the name of RTO Challan app. Literally sending an apk file through WhatsApp. Please take action.

[Leejohn Vaz @leejohnvaz]

@MTPHereToHelp - Daily issue of bikers riding on the wrong side. You guys need to do random checks and fine these bikers. Steady stream of #lawbreakers from pump house to sher-e-punjab. #andherieast.

Even with a traffic constable, they don't fear you guys! @MumbaiPolice

@GemsOfMBMC @RailMinIndia @drmbct @WesternRly 😆 state of everything thats built in this country. 0 maintenance

@pavanvaranasi @HathwayBrdband The bot is useless at solving any queries. Just an endless loop.

[Leejohn Vaz @leejohnvaz]

@MTPHereToHelp What about Rash auto drivers? I travel to Kurla everyday and can send all my dashcam footage of Rickshaws going the wrong way, overtaking from the wrong side and just driving like maniacs.

[Leejohn Vaz @leejohnvaz]

@CSMIA_Official - These self checkin counters are useless at T2. Touch screens refuse to work and the people at the counter aren't even doing anything about it. #quickcheckin #fail

[Leejohn Vaz @leejohnvaz]

@MumbaiPolice - Check the dashcam footage. Metro work happening at Powai is such a haphazard. They're welding while traffic is moving below without any precautions.

@mybmc - how can this be allowed?

[Leejohn Vaz @leejohnvaz]

@Amockx2022 Me.

@mashrujeet Don't think they're spreading panic, but the guys I follow are much accurate than the IMD. Also, the so called smses from the NDMA are close to spam, not localized, pretty generic. Sometimes its not even raining when to get the message.

Mumbai you never fail to surprise:

Can’t remember the last time such raw public anger spilled over on roads for a misaligned bridge, a pothole fatality, or even trees being hacked.

[Leejohn Vaz @leejohnvaz]

@mybmc The public parking lots you manage are in a dire state. The one thats near Lodha world one, has no lift to go up to any of the floors. Stairs are pathetic. Plus there are cars that are stored there for years. Is it just made for the sake of it?

Hello, Vidit. I am not a fan of chess, but you are an important person for our country and I did not mean to offend your family. I am sure they are good people. I was stating plain facts from a professional standpoint and I do not mince my words. You may call that ego or whatever, to console yourself, no problem.

Your statement on Doctors Day claiming an Ayurveda practitioner, Homeopath, Cosmetologist and a Physiotherapist were doctors is wrong and I stand by my words. Doctors' Day in India marks both the birth and death anniversary of Dr. Bidhan Chandra Roy, one of India's most revered physicians and a key figure in shaping the healthcare system.

Ayurveda, Homeopathy, Cosmetology or Physiotherapy are not realistic clinical medicine or and their practitioners are not clinical physicians. Physiotherapy is a legit branch of healthcare (adjunct to clinical medicine), but the rest are just plain sham - especially Homeopathy, which is also known as N*zi Medicine because H*tler tried to integrate it with conventional medicine at the time.

You got all worked up and started personally attacking me because you were ignorant of this fact. I do not need to keep an ego towards a chess GM or his family. You don't make me insecure and your family is of no concern to me from a professional standpoint.

But what you claim them to be - has major public health consequence, because someone of your stature, being ignorant about science and health affects public perception of realistic healthcare and pseudoscientific practices.

Your statements normalize pseudoscience and primitive therapies as healthcare practices when they are not. They are alternative medicine. And alternative medicine is medicine that is not proven to work. Just like there is no alternative chemistry, alternative physics or alternative mathematics, alternative medicine is also not medicine. And its practitioners are not doctors.

I am a certified internist with a doctorate in hepatology and liver transplant medicine with 260 peer reviewed scientific publications, 4400 citations and h-index of 30 (just for your information). You don't know me and how useful I am to my patients and their families. I suggest you do a bit of homework before throwing such childish tantrums.

I am staying in my lane and always have. Calling out medical misinformation is what I do apart from being a full-time doctor. I suggest you stay in your lane and discuss more on chess. Sorry for the checkmate. And for a change, talk about chess and try being useful. All the best for your future matches.

[Leejohn Vaz @leejohnvaz]

@MTPHereToHelp - Travel on the coastal road everyday. See a ton of people either not following the speed limit or using the lane they're not supposed to be using in the tunnel. It's honestly an accident waiting to happen. Are there any measures being taken?

Always a good message for Indian media.

[Leejohn Vaz @leejohnvaz]

@rushikesh_agre_ What a solution!! Instead of improving it, just give up and rename it. Lol. That's why kept wondering why Google maps kept referring it to Western Urban road lately.
Excellent work by the officials! #beingsarcastic

[Vir Das @thevirdas]

Is anyone doing the real news? Just checking.

[Leejohn Vaz @leejohnvaz]

@mashrujeet @MTPHereToHelp @MumbaiPolice @mybmc @MNCDFbombay @RoadsOfMumbai @mumbaimatterz This is everyday!
