Bro if you dish it out you need to have the ability to take it back - you sound like a sore loser here

[Greg Abbott @GregAbbott_TX]

What a loser Hochul is.

During the Championship Playoffs it was announced that Texas ranks #1 for Fortune 500 HQs. A title once held by NY.

Unlike the Knicks title, Texas’s lead over New York in business and new jobs will continue… forever.

I’ve been associated with AAP for over 8 years, managing its communications, and not once have I seen or heard of this so-called "leader."

@watARSHmelon Number of freight trains in South India is much much lower than in zones in East (SER, SECR, ECoR, ECR Dhanbad Division). The WDFC is also mostly dependent on a bunch of mega ports - JNPT, Mundra etc

No such necessity at this moment in South India. They should build HSRs!

日本の新幹線方式を採用して建設が進むインドの高速鉄道。しかし､信号システムは欧州の企業連合が受注しました。「インド新幹線」の現状とは？

[Hrishik Mukherjee 🇮🇳 @mrtrain_wala]

@cocomi_mina @ryusaiogushi Yes! The Indian ‘Broad’ Gauge is 1676 mm.

Japanese Gauge is 1067 mm for almost all legacy tracks and the Shinkansen is Standard Gauge ☺️

[Hrishik Mukherjee 🇮🇳 @mrtrain_wala]

@miina_333x No Shinkansen stop at Shin-Hakushima in Hiroshima, or Shin-Sapporo. Multiple such examples! (Currently visiting 🇯🇵😁)

[Hrishik Mukherjee 🇮🇳 @mrtrain_wala]

@unraveaero Welcome back!!!

[Hrishik Mukherjee 🇮🇳 @mrtrain_wala]

Well my Shinkansen was delayed by 15 minutes and I got no such thing - and I don’t expect it as well. Train systems are as human as the humans operating them.

To hold such high standards while forgetting the human factor is cruel

[BSAT Properties @BSAT_Properties]

I was on a train in Tokyo. We stopped between stations. Announcement in Japanese, then in English: "We apologize for the delay. We will resume shortly."

The delay was maybe 3 minutes. Not a big deal.

When the train started moving again, another announcement: "We sincerely apologize for the delay. We were stopped for 3 minutes and 20 seconds. This is unacceptable. Thank you for your patience."

Three minutes and twenty seconds. They measured it exactly. And called it unacceptable.

When I got off at my stop, there were station staff on the platform bowing and handing out delay certificates.

I took one out of curiosity. It was an official document stating that the train had been delayed by 3 minutes and 20 seconds, signed and stamped.

The staff member said in English "for your employer. So they know the delay was not your fault."

I said I'm a tourist, I don't need it. He looked confused. "But the delay affected you. You deserve an apology."

Three minutes. They were treating a three-minute delay like a major incident.

Later I mentioned this to a Japanese friend. They said "oh yes, delay certificates are normal. Trains are supposed to be exactly on time. If they are late, they must apologize."

I said three minutes isn't late, it's nothing. My friend said "in Japan, three minutes is late. On time means on time. Not approximately on time."

They said the train company probably investigated why there was a 3-minute delay. "They will find the cause and fix it so it doesn't happen again."

I kept the certificate. It's framed in my apartment now. A reminder that somewhere in the world, people care about three minutes.

Hot take - but if a packet of chips costs 15 rupees at a stall, it should cost more on a moving train.

MRP of a 40 rupee cake should be 50 rupees when sourced through IRCTC - Which is what all caterers should be forced to do - source only approved items!

[Hrishik Mukherjee 🇮🇳 @mrtrain_wala]

This is the category of people that deserve to be called ‘aantel’

Go ahead!

Regardless of party affiliation, Mamata didi deserves a standing ovation for being a FIGHTER. She has fought for every single vote until the very end of the election day. She has fought to preserve her people’s right to vote and remain on the electoral rolls. She has fought the Supreme Court judges that enabled a cruel, mass disenfranchisement process. She fought off political attacks from Delhi, including being addressed as “Ei Mamata” after the earlier “O didi” catcalling. And THROUGHOUT THE PROCESS, never ONCE did she give a pass to her personal dignity and the dignity of the constitutional office she holds.

I know kids who were born in 1999 who also have a similar degree of political knowhow

Nonsensical comment - why do you need cargo ops at an airport located within the city?

Not every airport is BLR right?

[Bangalore Aviation @BLRAviation]

Good for them. It’s time someone stood up to the predatory moves by Adani. It’s why major Indian cities need two airports in competition to each other not in cahoots.
