That special moment when you become news for the newspaper you work for 😍😍@b_sreejan sir thanks for this ☺🙏 @timesofindia @vineetjaintimes @TOI_Trivandrum

[Rakesh Nair @shutterbugnair]

It's always a pleasure to meet someone from TVM in Namma Uru, more so when it's the MP of Thiruvananthapuram himself! Was an absolute joy catching up with you @ShashiTharoor and clicking your pics again after ages 😄 #BLF

[Rakesh Nair @shutterbugnair]

@SwiggyCares It's ok don't bother, I have started ordering directly from the restaurant and get it delivered at my doorstep at half the cost that Swiggy charges. Should thank you guys for pushing me to explore this opportunity which I had !

[Rakesh Nair @shutterbugnair]

@Swiggy please explain ur logic.For ordering an item that costs me 129(which is already inflated rate) I need to pay tax and other charges that are more than 50% of item cost! 😄 And to top it, a rain charge, with GST on that when there is no rain! @jagograhakjago check this out

[Rakesh Nair @shutterbugnair]

@SwiggyCares @Swiggy @jagograhakjago The "Local rain intelligence system" is clearly not intelligent enough coz the place I was ordering from is barely a km away from my house. it was not raining there either. And I don't get the logic that because it could be raining at some corner of the city I need to pay a fee!

Pakistani Information Minister Ataullah Tarar gets Verbal Bashing & Reality Check from Yalda Hakim of SkyNews on Pakistani terror camps hit by Indian Armed Forces 🔥 #OperationSindoor #IndiaPakistanWar

[Rakesh Nair @shutterbugnair]

That's some big statement! Sure he knows what he is saying! #Pahalgam #Pakistan #Terrorism

[Dr. Shahbaz GiLL @SHABAZGIL]

Khawaja Asif fumbles on Sky News with Yalda Hakim! His idiotic “we did dirty work for US” answer to terror support claims, then lame backpedal, is a PR disaster. He’s clueless—first line’s all people hear! [Video]

What loot is this @ZeptoNow !!crazy! Contrary to the viral posts about inflated prices on iPhones, surprised to see similar tactics for android too. Capsicum selling for ₹30 on an iPhone is selling for bloody ₹107 on Android!! @jagograhakjago @PiyushGoyal @ShashiTharoor #Zepto

This 14 July, soldiers and Rafale aircraft from India are marching and flying alongside our troops.

We honour the memory of those who fought with the French in the First World War. We shall never forget.

[Rakesh Nair @shutterbugnair]

@AkasaAir Thanks but this is sorted!Had to wait for close to 30 mins just to get a response. Kindly work on reducing this turnaround time!!

[Rakesh Nair @shutterbugnair]

@AkasaAir is your customer care so understaffed that it takes nearly half an hour to respond? Mind you, I got through in the third attempt and this was something as important as requesting a wheelchair for my mother who will be travelling with you! #customerexperience #akasaair
