@sahilsingh333 @Fancricket12 But that doesn’t deny his greatness. In a country where athletic medal, even a bronze was considered impossible, he has delivered two Olympic medals. Not to forget the world championship gold and other big wins too!

@__NameNo__ No problem.

@mdshahaf22 @Ahmedshabbir20 @heyramhere Heads CMRL, one of the best run public organisations in TN. But he is young and might not be considered for the role of CS which is often reserved for seniors.

@AS2003017AB @UpdatesChennai @TVKVijayHQ That is fine. Need to appease the people a bit. Out of all free promises, that one requires lesser money. I was afraid they will implement some other intensive money crunching schemes.

@akaasi @dojin_lao_tzu 1. That is a point of debate. Marketing has both good and bad. I'll say it is a necessary evil 😅
2. PK was the one started the whole political consultancy - yes, it was beyond marketing but marketing was the core. See this is how I-PAC publicizes 2021 campaign in their website.

@akaasi @dojin_lao_tzu I still beleive these are just supporting acts. When Prashanth Kishore came in 2010s, the same was said - you get IAC and you win. That didn't always work.

That said marketing has always been relevant - just the form changes - from dramas to newspapers to social media.

@akaasi Our post independence history is rarely transmitted to the kids and we rather fight what ancient history need or need not be taught to the kids. The growth and stability we have had as a country and especially as a state is phenomenal, despite all issues we still have.

@akaasi My late father used to say that it is remarkable development that we no longer have rice or milk shortage and how lesser people have clothing or food scarcity. He used to say how they got only one dress a year for Diwali and that too will get torn easily unlike modern fabrics.

@Normal0sborn @notmuttley This is fishing ban period. So, rates are higher than normal by almost 20-25%.

But yes, even otherwise rates are higher and have gone up crazy in last two years.

@greasemonkey781 @UpdatesChennai If properly planned, Vertical development frees up space for other activities - like family spaces, proper public infra, etc. But proper planning is essential, else it will be chaos.

@akaasi Chennai had this panic 2 weeks back. Absolutely fine now. This trend has been spreading like a virus now. You can see one city on news everyday. Some local Social media channels start the panic and the word spreads despite assurances from Government and petrol pumps.

@Nikhil378045352 @UpdatesChennai @BCCI How is Guwhati ok? They just hosted a Ind vs SA test (and we lost it pretty badly too). How do they get to host another test so soon?

[Karthi @skvcet]

@jayabharathwaj @LalitKModi @IPL Second highest bid for Delhi was 84, while it was 81 for Bangalore. So, I guess UB got Blr and GMR got Delhi.

@Edukudaa @cathaypacific @cathaypacificIN Anything less than 2 hours, there is always a risk of luggage not getting transferred. Has happened with the best of airlines - Emirates and Lufthansa in the past. I’ll always account that as a risk when booking and opt for a flight with larger transit or have valuables in hand.

[Karthi @skvcet]

@Avgeek_Jan @etihad Both Emirates and Qatar airways have older 777s on this route. Good strategy from Etihad. Abu Dhabi pre clearance also aids the bookings.

@akaasi I think domestic here refers to production in India. So approximately 60% is imported vs 40% was local production. Now that 40% should be 50% of the needs if we account this 28% increase.

[Karthi @skvcet]

@thetrueccking @varunkrish No. Morning went to Shell and there was a long queue and they ran out of Petrol too. Only Diesel was available.

[Karthi @skvcet]

@akaasi Wouldn’t petrol evaporate very easily if not sealed properly?

Are these people buying petrol to sell in black later? ஒன்னுமே புரியலயே 🤔

[Karthi @skvcet]

@AnshulGarg1986 @akaasi Price is not the only reason. I've heard lots of stories of delayed handover and poor quality of work from these professional designing companies.
