OMG, @Tukaram_IndIAS is getting wild day by day.
After food, now his eyes are on drugs.
Cipla Pharma drug sale licences for the Pune warehouse unit cancelled.
The way you are working, sir, you will get transferred very soon. Powerful are scared.
Serious irregularities found:
- Related to packaging and storage
- Multiple regulatory lapses in the company’s drug storage and distribution system
- Issues with the packaging of Reactin Plus Tablets
- Stock worth around ₹11+ lakh seized
- Discrepancies between purchase and sale records
- Medicines stored directly on the floor
Tukaram Mundhe said that any company that violates the rules will invite strict action as per law.
What a strong decision, sir. Just amazing. Other IAS officers who sit in AC offices and enjoy life should learn something from Tukaram Mundhe.
No one should be spared.
We have 5,000+ IAS officers in India. Just imagine if all of them started working like this.
Make him FSSAI CEO.
Make India safe.
A Kannada actress brutally cook Kriti Sanon🚨
Q: Kriti Sanon is facing backlash for wearing a revealing outfit during her Raksha Bandhan campaign. What is your take on this controversy?
Actress: Look, I believe in women's freedom, but I won't support Kriti wearing something inappropriate for a sacred festival. It ruins the essence of our traditions.
Q: But some say she is just being unfairly targeted for her clothes?
Actress: Please don't use feminism to hide hypocrisy. I have just one simple question: would she wear this exact same outfit for an Eid campaign? No. This selective modernism only happens during our festivals, and that's the real issue.
Massive respect for not bootlicking Bollywood and speaking the truth🙌

More than 1 billion teeth around the world have been filled with a material that one woman invented.
The reason it looks like a real tooth instead of a repair is that the particles inside it are smaller than light.
Her name is Sumita Mitra.
She was born in India in 1949. Her father was a chemist. As a child she used to go to his laboratory and stand behind him watching him work, and that is where chemistry got hold of her.
She went to the United States, joined the company 3M, and ended up in its dental products laboratory.
In the late 1990s she looked at the problem with tooth fillings.
The white fillings dentists had then came with a trade off. The ones strong enough for the back teeth, where you actually chew, looked wrong. The ones that looked good went dull quickly and could not take the force of biting.
So a dentist had to choose between a filling that lasted and a filling that looked like your tooth.
At the same time, nanotechnology was becoming a serious field. She had an idea nobody in dentistry was working on.
Here is the science, and it is simple once you see it.
Visible light travels in waves. When light hits a particle bigger than its own wavelength, it scatters, and scattered light is what makes a material look cloudy or dull.
Nanoparticles are smaller than the wavelength of visible light. Light does not scatter off them. It passes through.
So a filling made of nanoparticles can look like enamel, because it handles light the way enamel does.
Her first attempt failed. She made tiny particles of several sizes, and the material did not handle properly. Dentists could not work with it.
She worked out why. To pack together into something strong, the particles needed a wide range of sizes, not a few. So she and her team built linked clusters of nanoparticles, which they called nanoclusters, and mixed those with single particles of different diameters.
That worked. It was strong, it took a polish, it held that polish, and by adding tiny amounts of pigment they could make it in shades that matched a person's own teeth.
It was launched in 2002.
It has now been used in more than 1 billion tooth restorations.
She holds over 100 patents. In 1998 3M elected her to its Carlton Society, the highest research honour the company gives. She retired in 2010. In 2021 the European Patent Office gave her the European Inventor Award. She is in the United States National Inventors Hall of Fame.
Most people who have one of her fillings in their mouth right now have never heard her name.
She has said what the work was for. The use of nanotechnology gave me the opportunity of making a new material. It restores people's smiles and improves the quality of their lives.

I'm late to this story and read it twice to be sure!
Beating Magnus Carlsen in 50 moves, casually saying "I'm done for the night," and going straight to sleep without bragging to your parents is elite-level ice in the veins.
Huge congrats to 15-year-old Vandan Alankar Sawai on an absolute masterclass in both chess and pure teenage chill.
Imagine checking your kid's https://t.co/7NDYDHMsrz profile the next morning just to realise he casually took down the World No 1 while jet-lagged.
Indian chess talent is genuinely built different! 🇮🇳
Rahul Gandhi can keep pushing his usual misinformation. 😂
But now, there’s a website doing the opposite: breaking down his claims, one by one, WITH FACTS.
It’s called “Jhooth Ki Goonj” — and honestly, the name says it all. 😎
His propaganda may echo. The facts hit harder.

Sudhir Chaudhary said a month ago that customers should have the right to monitor how their food is being prepared in restaurants, and this can be done through CCTV cameras in the kitchens of hotels and restaurants.
And now, Ahmedabad Nagar Nigam has issued an advisory asking restaurants and hotels to do the same.
This is what real impact looks like.
She had stopped driving. Her daughter had died of blood cancer and she could not do it any more.
Then she heard that Wayanad needed ambulances with freezer boxes.
She drove there from Kozhikode and spent the next 5 days carrying the dead.
Her name is Deepa Joseph.
She is the first woman ambulance driver in Kerala.
After her daughter died she fell into depression and took a break from the job. That is where she was when the landslides came down on Mundakkai and Chooralmala on 30th July 2024.
The particular need was for ambulances fitted with freezer boxes, because of what was being recovered. She had one. She went.
For 5 days her ambulance moved constantly between the disaster zone and the temporary morgue at Meppadi. She carried the injured. She carried the dead. She carried parts of the dead.
She has described what she saw there, and it is the detail that stays with you.
For the first day or 2, she said, families refused to believe their people were gone.
In the days that followed, the same families came to the morgue praying that the bodies being brought in would be theirs.
That is what hope becomes on the fourth day.
She has said those 5 days changed her completely. Being in that morgue made her feel that what she had gone through with her own daughter was something she could manage after all.
A woman who had stopped driving because of one death went and drove through 400 of them, and came back able to live with her own.
She was standing under a tree in an Assam village when a man cut it down.
9 baby birds fell to the ground in front of her. Some were injured. Some died there.
She stopped her PhD that year and did not go back to it for more than a decade.
Her name is Purnima Devi Barman.
She was born in 1980 in Pub Majir Gaon, a village on the bank of the Brahmaputra in Assam. Her grandmother used to sing to her about the birds in the paddy fields and taught her to tell the different storks apart.
She studied zoology at Gauhati University and began a PhD in 2007 on the greater adjutant stork, which people in Assam call the hargila, meaning bone swallower.
It is one of the rarest storks in the world. It stands about 5 feet tall, it is bald, and it eats carrion and rubbish. In 2007 the number left in Assam was estimated at around 450.
The problem was not poaching. It was that people hated it.
Villagers thought it was dirty, thought it smelled, and thought it was a bad omen. They threw stones at the birds. They cut down the trees the birds nested in, or tried to smoke them out. As one report put it, people would rather cut down their own trees than live near them.
She did not fight the villagers. She worked out that the birds could only be saved if the people around them wanted them there.
So she went to the women.
Her own words about the start of it are worth repeating. Men would dismiss her, she said. The women would laugh at her, but they would invite her into the house, and they would listen.
She held cooking competitions in backyards and talked about the bird while they cooked. She got theatre groups to write plays about it. She had the stork woven into textiles. She organised baby showers for hargila chicks, so that a nesting tree became something a family celebrated rather than something they resented.
She told villagers the bird could have gone to any village in Assam, and it chose theirs.
The women became the Hargila Army. It started small. It now has more than 20,000 members.
Since 2010, she says, not a single nesting tree has been cut in those villages. The women planted 45,000 saplings and rescued more than 500 chicks that fell from nests. Nests in one colony in Kamrup district went from about 30 to over 250.
The stork population in Assam has gone from around 450 to more than 1,800.
In December 2023 the International Union for Conservation of Nature moved the species off the endangered list.
She was given the Whitley Award in 2017 and the Whitley Gold Award in 2024, which people call the Green Oscar. India gave her the Nari Shakti Puraskar. Time named her one of its Women of the Year in 2025.
The women in those villages, who once laughed at her, are now the reason the bird exists.
Great news.
Government has heard it. Last year in July, I proposed this idea.
Now, news has come that 11,000+ restaurants in Ahmedabad will have to show live CCTV footage of their kitchens.
Good to see such ideas being taken seriously and turned into action.
I hope FSSAI makes this mandatory for all restaurants across India.
In the 1971 war, India lost a warship at sea. Its sonar had not been able to find the submarine that sank it.
India then tried to buy better sonar. The countries that made it would not sell.
So the Navy told one of its own officers to build it himself.
His name is Arogyaswami Paulraj.
He was born in Pollachi, a small town in Tamil Nadu. He joined the Indian Navy as a teenager and stayed for about 30 years.
The Navy spotted him early and sent him to the Indian Institute of Technology in Delhi for a master's degree. His professors told the Navy not to stop there. He finished a doctorate.
After the 1971 war he was given the sonar problem.
He had no foreign help, no foreign equipment and no permission to buy either. His team built the system from the ground up. It was called APSOH. It went into the fleet in 1983.
It was not a compromise. It is still considered one of the best sonars in the world.
He went on to set up 3 national research laboratories in India, in computing, artificial intelligence and military electronics. India gave him the Padma Bhushan.
Then he left the Navy and joined Stanford University in America as a postdoctoral researcher, starting again at the bottom.
While running wireless experiments there, he noticed something odd in his results about how signals could be separated from one another. He followed it.
What came out of it is called MIMO. In simple terms, instead of one antenna sending and one antenna receiving, you use several at both ends at once, and the signals stop fighting each other and start carrying far more data.
That is the foundation of every WiFi connection and every 4G and 5G phone on the planet.
The chairman of the Marconi Society put it plainly. Every WiFi router and 4G phone today uses MIMO technology pioneered by him.
He founded a company on it, which Intel bought. He founded another, which Broadcom bought. He holds around 80 patents.
He has the Marconi Prize, the IEEE Alexander Graham Bell Medal, the Faraday Medal, and a place in the United States National Inventors Hall of Fame.
The internet in your house is running on his idea right now, and almost nobody in this country knows his name.
मध्यप्रदेश के इंदौर के युवाओं की देशभक्ति सुनकर आपका सीना भी गर्व से चौड़ा हो जाएगा ❤️
BSF के जवान मोहनलाला सोनकर 1992 में एक ऑपरेशन के दौरान शहीद हो जाते हैँ और उनका परिवार सालों तक अभाव की जिंदगी अपने टूटे फूटे कच्चे घर में काटता रहता है तब उस गाँव के कुछ युवाओं ने मिलकर फैसला किया कि शहीद के परिवार को इस तरह कच्चे घर में नहीं रहने देंगे 2019 में एक चैक एक साइन नाम से अभियान चलाया और उनकी मेहनत रंग लायी कुल मिलाकर 11 लाख रुपया इकट्ठा हुआ जिसमें से 10 लाख रूपये से शहीद के कच्चे घर को पक्का बनवाया गया और बाकी के 1 लाख रूपये से शहीद की प्रतिमा लगवाई गयी जब रक्षाबंधन पर शहीद की पत्नि राजू बाई को मकान की चाबी सोंपी गयी और ग्रहप्रवेश हुआ तब गाँव के युवाओं ने जमीन पर अपनी हथेली बिछा दीं जिन पर चलकर राजू बाई अपने घर के दरवाज़े तक पहुँची 🙏
इंदौर के युवाओं की यह पहल आपको कैसी लगी अपनी राय जरूर दें!
This lassi seller lost his father when he was very young.
At just 11 years old, he took full responsibility for his family. He worked hard. Got his brothers and sisters married and took care of all the expenses.
Later, he got married and had children.
Today, he has his own house and earns ₹80,000 a month.
But when someone asked him, "If you could ask God for one thing, what would it be?"
His answer: My father's life.
His father never got to live a happy life. He spent his whole life in extreme poverty. For a son, it is very painful to lose his father when he could do nothing to help him or give him a better life.
That regret can stay with you forever.
These words of a Jharkhand student will bring tears to your eyes.💔
Yesterday, when Hemant Soren announced the cancellation of the JSSC CGL exam, there was an atmosphere of celebration at the protest site, but listen to this guy.
He said : "Kis bat ki khushi manau sir ?, We won this protest, but this protest has shown us a lot.We did the entire protest peacefully but still the way we were treated, the way we were lathi-charged, the injury on my hand is still the same, my sister is also injured"
"We still received no support, nor did any political party openly support us. This is a victory for us, but more than a victory, it is a realization within ourselves of how much change we have to bring in this system so our future generations doesn't suffer the way we are suffering.💔
The students of Jharkhand have really set an example by bringing the government to its knees through their determined and peaceful protests.🫡
“Modi Ji, aap hi se toh hamara parivaar hai…”
A Letter from a Punekar. An Emotion Shared by Millions...
I am sharing a deeply heartfelt letter written by Smt. Shobhana Apte Ji, a senior citizen from my Ch. Shivajinagar constituency, to Hon’ble Prime Minister Shri Narendra Modi Ji.
Her words express immense pride in Modi Ji’s leadership, his years of service to Bharat, and the transformation our country continues to witness under his leadership.
But there is also pain in her words.
She writes about how deeply hurt she felt hearing the disrespectful remarks made about Modi Ji and his late mother. For her, such words were not merely an attack on a political leader they crossed a line of basic human dignity and respect that we, as Indians, have always associated with a mother.
And yet, what touched her equally was Modi Ji’s grace, restraint and large-heartedness in choosing to forgive.
One line from her letter stayed with me: “Modi Ji, aap hi se toh hamara parivaar hai…”
There is something very powerful in those simple words.
They reflect the affection and personal bond that millions of Indians have developed with our Prime Minister a relationship that goes beyond politics and is built on trust, respect and a shared love for our nation.
As her elected representative, I am forwarding her letter to the Prime Minister’s Office. But I also wanted to share it here, knowing that these words will resonate with all Indians who love, respect and stand with our Hon’ble Prime Minister.
Sometimes one citizen’s words can express what millions feel.
This is Smt. Shobhana Apte Ji’s voice.
But the emotion behind it belongs to many.
