On the lines of recent reductions of VAT on ATF, by states like Maharashtra, I appreciate the timely decision of Delhi Chief Minister Smt @gupta_rekha ji and the Delhi Government to also reduce VAT on ATF from 25% to 7%.
At a time when the aviation sector continues to face global operational and cost pressures, such proactive measures by State Governments provide much-needed support to airlines and help keep air travel affordable for passengers.
Delhi, being one of the country’s busiest aviation hubs, will particularly benefit from this decision through improved operational stability and continued affordable connectivity for lakhs of daily passengers.
I thank the Delhi Government for this positive and passenger-centric intervention in support of India’s aviation sector.

How many more posts from @realDonaldTrump will convince the American people that this man is deranged and unfit for office. He is a shame to that office. In every which way!
#iplindia2026#CSK looks the weakest team in this edition. No quality in bowling, fielding sucks & players seems disinterested. #CSK were once the mighty AUS of IPL winning quite consistently but last 3 years are way below their standards. Sad to witness the downfall #WakeupCSK

The best decision that @Dev_Fadnavis has made is to appoint a brilliant officer like @AshwiniBhide the Municipal Commissioner of Mumbai. If anyone can get things done, it’s her. Far better than all the others : far far better.
Nitin Gadkari ji says "A new AI-driven toll system will capture photos of number plates & deduct toll amount directly from bank accounts".
So why can’t we use same technology to capture photos of potholes & deduct salaries of govt employees?
Accountability can't be one sided!

This meal was not served even after booking much in advance. I have tried reaching out to customer care to initiate refund, wrote an email too but no reply. Appreciate if the money could be refunded.
@TimesNow Dearest @TimesNow We really don't want to know what's happening in PK, SL & BD ! Show the reality what's happening in India. Go on the streets & take feedback from general public. We have voted & we need answers !
The Ministry has issued the following directions through the Directorate General of Civil Aviation (DGCA):
1. Minimum 60% of seats on any flight to be allocated free of charge to ensure fair access
2. Passengers travelling on the same PNR to be seated together, preferably in adjacent seats
3. Carriage of sports equipment and musical instruments to be facilitated in a transparent and passenger-friendly manner, subject to applicable safety and operational regulations. Airlines shall also bring out clear, transparent policies for carriage of pets.
4. Strict adherence to passenger rights framework, particularly in cases of delays, cancellations and denied boarding
5. Prominent display of passenger rights across airline websites, mobile applications, booking platforms, and airport counters
6. Clear communication of passenger entitlements in regional languages to ensure wider accessibility and awareness
The Ministry of Civil Aviation remains committed to enhancing passenger experience, ensuring transparency, reducing grievances and upholding the highest standards of safety across the aviation ecosystem.

Look at what’s happening around India right now due to West Asia War…
Sri Lanka
• Long fuel queues
• Petrol quota limit: Cars 15L/week, Bikes 5L/week
Pakistan
• Schools shut for 2 weeks
• 60% govt vehicles off roads
• Fuel allowance cut by 50%
• 4-day govt work week
Bangladesh
• Universities closed
• Fuel rationing imposed: Cars 10L/day, Bike 2L/day
India
• No queues for petrol/diesel
• No rationing
• No shutdowns
That’s the difference strong leadership makes. 🇮🇳
The fact that India, under PM Modi, can speak with all sides in the region, from Israel to Iran to Gulf nations, gives it a unique diplomatic advantage in safeguarding its national interests.

Went to the grocery store this morning
Bread, milk, eggs
$47.63
The screen asked if I'd like to round up to support a children's hospital
I pressed no
The cashier looked at me
The woman behind me looked at me
My wife looked at the ceiling
Again
This company made $14 billion last year
They can round up
Went to get gas after
The pump asked if I'd like to add $1 to support veterans
I support veterans
I pressed no
A $200 billion oil company asking me to fund their charity while I'm paying $3.89 a gallon
That's not philanthropy
That's outsourcing
Drove through for lunch
Taco Bell
The screen said "round up for education?"
A fast food company asking me to fund scholarships while paying their employees $11 an hour
I pressed no
My wife said "you know you're arguing with screens today"
She was right
But the screens started it
Went to the pharmacy
Picked up a prescription
$340 after insurance
The screen asked if I'd like to donate $1 to help families in need
I just paid $340 for a medication that costs $4 to manufacture
And now you want a dollar
I pressed no
The pharmacist said "it's just a dollar"
I said "it's never just a dollar"
She didn't respond
Got home
My wife said "you said no to a children's hospital, veterans, education, and families in need today"
I said "no. I said no to four corporations who want me to fund their goodwill so they can put it in their annual report"
She was quiet
Then she said "you're not wrong"
I said "I know"
She said "but you're still going to look like a monster"
I said "I'd rather look like a monster than quietly fund a billion-dollar company's PR strategy at the register"
She didn't disagree
But she didn't look at me either
Plz fix. Thx.

@JethmalaniM He is a disgrace to our country !! Highly Imbalanced & completely unstable. You may have difference of opinion with a person or some political party, but Nation's interest comes first. He has put country's name on stake on many occasions. #shame_on_rahulgandhi
