I don’t generally like arrogance in people. But the arrogance that comes from being incorruptible is a rare delight. That arrogance I’ll accept any day.
How much of India's infrastructure was built after 2014?
• 100% of Dedicated Freight Corridors
• 98% of Solar Capacity
• 85% of the Expressway Network
• 79% of Tap Water Access
• 75% of Metro Rail
• 71% of Port Capacity
• 69% of Railway Electrification
• 60% of 4-Lane National Highways
Infrastructure is built over decades.
But some decades build more than others.

If you are buying for end use, be very careful with these ₹8,000/sft launches on 5-acre parcels with 1,000 flats types!
No matter how good the brochure looks.
No matter how many amenities they show.
This is not luxury.
This is density.
Many such projects are the direct result of unlimited FSI.
When these projects are delivered in 2031–32, residents may not be fighting about clubhouse photos.
They may be fighting about:
Water.
Lift waiting time.
Open space usage.
Parking flow.
Maintenance delays.
Repair resolution.
Crowding everywhere.
Resales can also become very hard when 100s of similar flats come into the market from the same society.
If you are an end user, don’t get carried away by launch pricing alone.
Better buy a smaller unit in a less dense ready-to-occupy project or a smaller unit from a proven big brand where execution and living experience are more predictable.
In real estate, cheap entry can become expensive mistake later.
India uses its 4th most powerful military in the world to rescue Venezuelans trapped under the rubble after the devastating earthquakes that hit the country last week.
Venezuela is 9000 miles away from India. Setting up a makeshift hospital in Venezuela within 48 hours of the earthquakes is a milestone in itself.
India leads the way in showing up for countries in crisis - friend or foe.
Met a few potential customers/audience at the Mumbai T2 airport.
Discouraged them to spend big on cars and advised them to pick i20 CVT and Amaze CVT for City use as a use-and-throw cars (if not EVs)
As per the latest customer reports in North, all kind of petrol cars are hit (NA, Hybrid and Turbo GDi). Authorised service centres are getting 10+ cars flatbed daily.
All you actually need is 6 airbags, a basic screen for maps, central locking and an AC. Don’t overspend on a tech for which there is no clarity for the fuel after a few years. Something has silently gone wrong in the last two months particularly.
India uses its 4th most powerful military in the world to help countries facing a crisis, even if they are 9000 miles away, instead of attacking them.
India set up a makeshift hospital during the Turkey earthquakes too, treating thousands of people as its military helped Turkish authorities clear out the rubble.
During the Russia-Ukraine war, India evacuated its own citizens along with stranded citizens of other countries, including Pakistani citizens.
India also led the medical and rebuilding efforts (by sending financial aid) during the Nepal earthquakes in April 2015. India sent the highest number of troops to the region and led the operations for months - free of cost for Nepal.
Even during the fall of Yemen in 2015, India evacuated its own citizens as well as American and European citizens, who were stranded there and expecting no help from their own military.
All this was FREE OF COST. India didn't send a bill to any of these countries.
We owe India gratitude, instead of the racist treatment it gets on social media.

They got their school back from TMC goons. The blackboard has a date of 2024 written on it, Imagine they captured a school for 2 years. Look at the kids. They are dancing with joy. ♥️
Today, India takes a defining step in its civil nuclear journey, advancing the second stage of its nuclear programme.
The indigenously designed and built Prototype Fast Breeder Reactor at Kalpakkam has attained criticality.
This advanced reactor, capable of producing more fuel than it consumes, reflects the depth of our scientific capability and the strength of our engineering enterprise. It is a decisive step towards harnessing our vast thorium reserves in the third stage of the programme.
A proud moment for India. Congratulations to our scientists and engineers.
The West poured $50 billion into fast breeder nuclear reactors and abandoned every single one. India poured $900 million and just achieved criticality on the first commercially viable one outside Russia.
The US spent $15 billion. Gave up. Japan spent $12 billion. Their Monju prototype had one sodium fire in 1995 and never recovered. The UK spent $8 billion. Germany spent $6 billion. France, Italy, all walked away. Six of the richest nations on Earth concluded this technology was too hard and too expensive to pursue.
India started building in 2004 with an initial budget of $420 million. Twenty-two years, a dozen missed deadlines, and a cost doubling later, the Prototype Fast Breeder Reactor at Kalpakkam just sustained a controlled fission chain reaction. The reactor is now alive.
The reason India never quit is a constraint most people have never thought about. India has only 1-2% of the world's uranium reserves. For a country of 1.4 billion people trying to build energy independence, that's a death sentence if you're running conventional nuclear.
But India has 25% of the world's thorium. The single largest national reserve on Earth.
The problem: you can't just burn thorium the way you burn uranium. A physicist named Homi Bhabha designed a three-stage nuclear program in the 1950s specifically to solve this. Stage 1: burn natural uranium in heavy water reactors, collect plutonium as a byproduct. Stage 2: feed that plutonium into fast breeder reactors, where it breeds MORE plutonium AND converts thorium into fissile uranium-233. Stage 3: burn thorium directly at scale.
India just entered Stage 2. Seventy years after Bhabha drew it up on paper.
The math on the thorium endgame is wild. At current energy consumption rates, India's thorium reserves could power the country for over 700 years. Most nuclear nations are playing a uranium game with maybe 80-100 years of runway. India is playing a completely different game with a 7x longer fuel supply.
The West quit because uranium stayed cheap and sodium coolant is terrifying. It catches fire on contact with air. It explodes on contact with water. Russia's BN-600 had 27 sodium leaks and 14 sodium fires between 1980 and 1997. And Russia kept going anyway because Russia doesn't quit nuclear projects. India watched all of that and kept going too.
When you have 1% of the uranium but 25% of the thorium, the engineering difficulty stops being a reason to quit. It becomes the price of admission to a 700-year energy supply that nobody else can access.
Transgender Persons (Amendment) Bill, 2026 has been passed in Parliament
• India says no to Western-style woke culture; ends the system of self-declared gender identity
• Section 4(2) of the 2019 Act, which allowed self-perceived gender identity, has been deleted
• Recognition now limited to biological variations (chromosomes/hormones) and traditional communities like Kinner, Hijra, Aravani, Jogta, and Eunuchs
• Gender recognition to be decided by medical boards, not self-declaration
• Introduces strict penalties, including up to life imprisonment in some cases, for those who force or manipulate others into a transgender identity
