Appealing for Work From Home (WFH) won’t change anything. If the govt genuinely wants it, it can strongly push or effectively enforce WFH in sectors where physical presence isn’t essential.
It’s common in the West but not in India because Indian companies still operate on a “presence equals productivity” mindset, where managers feel employees work seriously only when they are physically visible. If an employee isn’t exhausted by traffic, long hours, and physical attendance, they assume no real work is being done. There’s also a deeply ingrained feudal mindset where control, surveillance, and making juniors “feel the grind” is treated as management instead of actual productivity.
Otherwise, WFH can solve many problems for both individuals and the country. It reduces traffic, pollution, fuel consumption, stress, travel time, road accidents, and daily expenses for individuals while improving work-life balance. For India, it cuts crude oil consumption and import bills, reduces pressure on dollars, inflation, and urban infrastructure, while easing overcrowding in metro cities and saving huge amounts of productive time otherwise wasted in commuting.
Meet Suvendu Adhikari. INC (1995–2000); TMC (2000–2020); the face behind Nandigram, fuel for the rise of TMC, and of Mamata Banerjee. Her right hand. The rightful successor of the party. But Didi chose her nephew Abhishek Banerjee as the crown prince. Adhikari quit TMC, joined BJP, and is now replacing not just the prince but the Queen herself as CM.
Now meet Himanta Biswa Sarma. Same story. INC (1991–2015). Quit Congress after 25 years of loyalty because Rahul Gandhi chose to feed his dog during the meeting time with HBS, and the 10 Janpath obviously picked a dynast, Gaurav Gogoi, as Assam caretaker. Today, he is set to be a two-time CM of Assam; the King of North East.
If BJP has become an electoral juggernaut, it’s not because of EC or ED, but because they strategised for it decades in advance. They identify and value grassroots winners and empower them. If other parties operate like a private company and choose dynasty clowns over competence, BJP cannot be held responsible for it.
One day it rains and it takes 90 minutes for a 7 km stretch on ORR. What is the plan during upcoming rains and what can be done from now to avoid traffic? Need answers @DKShivakumar@Tejasvi_Surya#bangalorerains

My Olympic campaign has come to an end, not quite as I had envisioned. Despite winning numerous medals at the Commonwealth Games & Asian Games over the years, the Olympic medal has remained an elusive dream. Starting with my first campaign in Athens 2004, I was ranked 171, & 1/n
Proposed Immediate Rule Changes for UWW:
1.) 1kg second Day Weight Allowance.
2.) Weigh-ins pushed from 8:30am to 10:30am.
3.) Forfeit will occur in future finals if opposing finalist misses weight.
4.) After a semifinal victory, both finalists’ medals are secured even if weight is missed on Day 2. Gold can only be won by a wrestler who makes weight on the second day.
5.) Give Vinesh the Silver medal.
