Google which is cash surplus, just announced an additional capital raise of $80 bn.
Google annual profit is $160 bn, last quarter $62 bn, and market cap $4.5 trillion. That is close to total profits and market cap of all Indian listed companies put together.
It’s a wake up call to all companies to invest into the future, whatever the present maybe.
Now that IPL is done and dusted, time for India to focus on business of business.
Delighted to announce that @VFSGlobal is opening a visa application centre in Bhubaneswar from 1st April’ 26.
The centre was much-needed in Bhubaneswar for providing world-class, convenient, time-effective and efficient visa facilitation services to people of Odisha who otherwise had to travel to Kolkata to meet their visa requirements. Commencement of visa facilitation from Bhubaneswar will save time and cost, boost international mobility and connectivity and also create local employment opportunities.
More ease-of-living is the motto of PM Modi’s Govt. Grateful to EAM @DrSJaishankar and CEO, VFS Global Group, Mr. Zubin Karkaria for considering my request for operationalising a visa application centre in Bhubaneswar.

@BlrCityPolice@OfficialBMRCL@NammaMetro_ Autos are parked just outside Baiyapanhalli metro station gate in spite of having a sign board to not park any vehicle with a fine of Rs 500. Passengers especially ladies are facing a lot of inconvenience while coming out of the station.
@nitin_gadkari@MORTHIndia@OfficeOfNG Fastag toll fees collection is not available in GVRMP DHARWAD RAMNAGAR TOLLWAYS. The locals insisted on paying cash. This is to bring to your notice as fastag is compulsory across all tolls in India.
Hope you are aware of it and please take appropriate action against these people. Anyway tourists in Goa are at an all time low and because of these people, it will further deteriorate the experience of those who are visiting. @goacm
I urge @narendramodi to look for a new minister who can transform this sector for better. Apparently the current one has ambitions to become PM as per the opposition.
If you take any major highway and start checking all the heavy vehicle drivers for drunk and driving at night, I can bet 50% would be found drunk or tired of long hours driving. I have seen myself during my overnite bus travel from hyd-bgrl, Pune-Goa etc.
Absolutely no regret that YouTube banned my channel because the message I wanted to convey is now being heard LOUD and CLEAR👏
