Had a great experience interacting with students and public about social media and virtual influencers at Debrecen. Thank you, @MCC_Budapest, for the invitation and warm hospitality.
There will be no Leader of the Opposition in #Assam this time. Congress finished second with 19 seats, short of the one-sixth mark needed for the post. A clear signal of how one-sided the mandate has turned. #AssamAssemblyElection
Voters didn’t just choose a party; they rejected a pattern of politics they no longer wanted to live with.
Blaming institutions or security arrangements misses the larger picture.
Whether it is governance delivery, crisis response, or campaign strategy, his presence is rarely absent. That kind of sustained engagement doesn’t just win headlines; it builds political momentum. Today's electoral outcome reflects that connection. #AssamAssemblyElection
Politics today is being shaped as much by visibility as by execution, and @himantabiswa has mastered combining both. He has built a reputation for being constantly on the move, hands-on with administration, and deeply involved in ground-level political work.
@irbishi is such a treat to listen to. The way you bring out those rags-to-riches journeys of Indian players like Aniket Verma and Ashok Sharma in the #IPL just hits differently. @StarSportsIndia
As 🇮🇳Hon External Affairs Minister HE Dr @DrSJaishankar left Dhaka following a whirlwind 4-hr visit, #Bangladesh & #India would look forward to script a new chapter in 🇧🇩🇮🇳 ties, in shared interests driven by pragmatism and mutual interdependence, as indeed briefly discussed with @bdbnp78 Acting Chair, @trahmanbnp, this afternoon.

The entire state stands still to bid adieu to its most loved son. A voice for the voiceless, a soul for the broken. Millions weep today as silence takes the stage. You earned love beyond riches, and that love makes you immortal. Rest in peace, Legend 💔 #ZubeenGarg
🚨 #Nepal2025 | PM Oli resigns after Gen Z-led protests over alleged corruption & the social media ban turned violent. Echoes of 2022 🇱🇰 & 2024 🇧🇩. Once again, students demanding freedom & rights force change. South Asia’s youth are rewriting politics. ✊🏼🌍
As you retire from Tests, I'm reminded of your thoughtful gesture 12 years ago, during my last Test. You offered to gift me a thread from your late father. It was something too personal for me to accept, but the gesture was heartwarming and has stayed with me ever since. While I may not have a thread to offer in return, please know that you carry my deepest admiration and very best wishes.
Your true legacy, Virat, lies in inspiring countless young cricketers to pick up the sport.
What an incredible Test career you have had! You have given Indian cricket so much more than just runs – you have given it a new generation of passionate fans and players.
Congratulations on a very special Test career.
@7Cricket@RickyPonting, who, as Australian journalist Peter Roebuck put it in 2008, "turned a group of professional cricketers into a pack of wild dogs", should think twice before offering a moral lecture in 2024.
EAM Dr S Jaishankar:
Foreign policy is not like chess, it is like cricket
"There are many players, playing conditions keep varying, playing at home & playing abroad are very different, you are at umpires wimps, I won't even talk about cricket boards..competitive spirit"
Glad to see my good friend Prime Minister @AlboMP with the Indian and PM’s XI teams.
Team India is off to a great start in the series and 1.4 billion Indians are strongly rooting for the Men in Blue.
I look forward to exciting games ahead.
In 1984, Nike was dying in basketball shoes.
Adidas was the king - the brand every player dreamed of wearing.
Then, Adidas made the most expensive mistake in sports history and handed Nike their empire.
