Indians gave Rs 4,000+cr to Turkey & Azerbaijan last year through tourism. Created jobs. Boosted their economy, hotels, weddings, flights.
Today, both stand with Pakistan after Pahalgam attack.
Plenty of beautiful places in India & the world.
Please skip these 2 places.
Jai Hind.
Pm @narendramodi Sir, there is huge corruption in registering for GST. Pl revert back to automatic approval as earlier. This was changed by officials and now captured by corrupt officials. @nsitharaman@FinMinIndia@PMOIndia Pl simplify all approvals, corruption is destroying our future. @PiyushGoyal
A friend planned to start an automotive parts manufacturing unit,
> Applied for GST, rejected twice for useless reasons.
>Went for land clearance, had to feed people at the development authority.
> Pollution board next, can't skip the babus.
>Factory license, BIS, fire NOC, power approvals, same story everywhere.
Bribe or face delays. Nothing's online. You have to run around constantly.
Meanwhile, Piyush Goyal talks about competing with China, while the government itself can’t manage a basic EPFO website.
The real enemies of this country are corrupt bureaucrats and politicians.
Truth is, we’ll never overtake China, not with this army of babus and netas blocking every step.
One day I am going to invite people from @IndiGo6E home for dinner and ask them to wait outside the door till the table is laid and the food is cooked. #Rude. Always #IndigoFirstPassengerLast
this is what's keeping me up at night these days...
1. google has become unusable. once you get used to "deep research" (thanks grok, perplexity etc), google feels like bringing a typewriter to a macbook meeting.
2. MCP will do for ai agents what REST did for web services - this standard protocol means an ai agent built for healthcare can instantly talk to billing systems, patient records, and insurance databases without custom code, unlocking thousands of new startup opportunities. it's really exciting!
3. we're seeing the entire cost structure of building businesses collapse - you can now build profitable companies serving tiny, weird niches that were impossible to reach when you needed a full team. what used to need 1000 customers to break even now needs 10.
4. it's not too late to be a creator or build a media business. creators are evolving into the new holding companies, consolidating influence, revenue streams, and audiences in ways that mirror corporate giants. somehow it's still early
5. really big arbitrage opportunity to buy businesses without taste and add taste. "taste private equity" has a nice ring to it.
6. figuring out LLM seo. billions of dollars will flow to new players who figure out how to get "cited" by LLMs. finally.
7. most ai apps are designed for websites not mobile. ai-first consumer mobile is really interesting. we saw with cal ai and the looksmaxing apps, that this is just the beginning.
8. every product launch needs video now - i'm watching great features die on landing pages while quick screen recordings go viral and drive thousands of signups. the social feeds have spoken.
9. what used to require millions in vc funding now needs an api key, some prompts and a tweet. this fires me up!!
10. faster than ever to launch something of quality. faster than ever to pivot. knowing when to pivot is an art.
11. i dont understand anyone who sitting in business school right now. literally everything is being rewritten.
12. who is building the app store for ai agents? companies will browse and hire pre-trained, specialized agents like we download apps
13. the way to stop a big player to compete with you in this new world is to own distribution.
14. you can spend a lot of time thinking about politics or checking emails or on social in the name of research, but not really moving forward anywhere.
15. we're about to see software companies capture value that used to belong to agencies, consulting firms, and entire departments.
16. we're about to go from "there's an app for that" to "there's your app for that.
17. minimum viable audience is more important than minimum viable product
18. I don't know how long this window stays open, but we're in a moment where all the rules of building businesses are being rewritten. and for the people who are playing with this new tools, putting stuff out there, creating audiences/communities, you've got an unfair advantage.
i hope you get some sleep.

If you haven’t watched the movie yet, go and watch it. Take your kids above 8 years to it. It will be most painful watch for them but they will never ever become evil dancing in JNU and Jadhavpur campuses celebrating terrorists, Aurangzeb like evil and wanting harm for our nation.
Don’t read further if you intend to watch it as there will be spoiler alerts and this movie should be given a chance to surprise you even if you know all about Hindwi bravery of Chatrapati Sambhaji Maharaj and evilness of Aurangzeb.
There is a saying
Chatrapati Shivaji Maharaj ne humko Jeena sikhaya aur Chatrapati Sambhaji Maharaj ne marna.
Chatrapati Sambhaji who is also called as Chhaava (lion cub) was probably most maligned hero along with Veer Savarkar even after his death because the history makers feared his message and his life will be too strong to counter. So they created lots of lies about his nature right from Mughals who knew his legacy will gut them and then followed by Britishers etc. These distorians tried secularising Shivaji Maharaj and abusing Sambhaji Maharaj. It worked to some extent but this movie will destroy their lot of efforts. Yes some minor secularising attempt was done but it can be excused as smart manoeuvring to ram in the message.

High hopes on you and @VivekRammaswamy for us to Build Companies, Create jobs and contribute pay taxes to grow economy. without waiting for years.
Masters and PHD STEM, Candidates with proven Entrepreneurial exp should get Green cards in Weeks rather than Years
Have a lot of ideas here:
- Fast-track green cards for all international PhD / Master’s students in STEM fields.
- Extend undergrad work visas + clear green card track
- Work visas / green cards produced in weeks, not months
- Visa stamping site in the U.S. so folks don’t have to travel
- O1 visas allow spouses to work + remove non-immigrant intent rule

Indigo flight 6E 17 from BOM to IST, delayed by more than 3.5hrs. Passengers have been sitting in the aircraft since 6.30am. The crew has no clarity on what is happening. Multiple passengers have connecting flights. Pls take cognisance.
My sister in law is travelling from Mumbai to USA via Istanbul through Indigo airlines. The plane has been stuck at Mumbai Runway for the last two hours and passengers are just updated that delayed with technical issues. Flight no is 6E-17 . @IndiGo6E@indigo@TurkishAirlines.
@IndiGo6E@JM_Scindia@MoCA_India
531 passengers are on runway since 2 hours INSIDE a plane in #Mumbai@IndiGo6E is putting everyone's life in danger for sake of business
Urgent action needed.
Wow.. 3rd time this is happening to me in one year. I booked and paid for a business class ticket on @airindia from Mumbai to Bengaluru. When I reach departure gate, the staff rudely tells me that I have been downgraded (for no reason) and they cannot give me a refund. What's up with AirIndia? The person on the counter is Nishita Singh. Absolutely not helpful, and impolite. @airindia really needs to introspect and see if they are capable of running an airline in the first place. I am currently at the departure gate. Flight taking off at 9.25am @TataCompanies
