Passenger next to my seat spent the whole 8 hour train journey eating and throwing all the leftovers under the seat. Dustbin was right outside. Later, when everyone was trying to sleep, he started playing videos loudly.
Wanted to teach him a lesson in civic sense, but I stopped myself because getting home safely is more important than teaching a random stranger morality. I have a family, goals, and plans for the future. You need to be practical. You can't change the whole country. If you confront these people, they won't learn or acknowledge their mistake. Instead, they'll start a fight and can turn violent.
Mumbai local train incident is one example. Man asked someone to close the door because of the rain and ended up losing his life to a person carrying a knife.
Reality is, civic sense can only be taught where people are willing to listen, in a moral society. Smartest choice is to stay invisible, earn more and build a life where you move up the economic ladder so you and your family can have safer spaces to avoid such people.
Do all these BJP leaders have the right to put up this illegal hoarding, screamin, they have planted trees when they are butchering trees in #Pune in large numbers, making it an oven. 'मी केलंय arrogance unpardonable @ChDadaPatil@madhurimisal@mohol_murlidhar@BJPForPuneCity
INDIAN OVERSEAS DEATHS HEAVILY CONCENTRATED IN GULF COUNTRIES
• Government data shows Indian fatalities abroad are overwhelmingly concentrated in Gulf nations, with the UAE and Saudi Arabia accounting for the largest absolute number of deaths between 2021 and 2025.
• Saudi Arabia, UAE, Oman and Kuwait recorded disproportionately high fatalities relative to the size of their Indian expatriate populations, while Qatar's mortality ratio remained comparatively lower.
• More than 37,700 Indian worker deaths were reported overseas during 2021–2025, with Gulf countries accounting for over 86% of the total.
Fifa rezilliğe devam ediyorken markalar da gerilla pazarlama dersi veriyor resmen.
Resmi sponsor olmadığı için otellerdeki ketçap mayonezin bile üstünü siyah bantla kapatan Fifa'nın şark kurnazlığı, markaları etkilemiyor aksine onlara yeni bir reklam alanı açıyor.
Social media trends have turned the world’s most beautiful places into endless bathroom lines at a concert, where everyone waits for hours just to take the same photo to show to people who couldn’t care less 🌎📸
Nothing captures the shallow decay of our time better than this
What can we do?
Treat this as early warning. A weak monsoon can reduce reservoirs, soil moisture and groundwater recharge, carrying stress into rabi and next summer.
With El Niño peaking by winter, 2027 could be the hottest year ever recorded.
Plan for water, crops, and health
IMHO this is what is happening:
India is adding a lot of green cover. I know this because I know few people who are involved in this + illegal mining has stopped at several places so the Forrest is taking over
The online outrage is about the absolute mess of the bigger cities. People who are online mostly live in those cities and these people tend to speak more often on social media
When you are stuck 2.5hrs in traffic, when the roads are broken in your city, when the footpath doesn’t exist, and garbage is everywhere, you tend to see the whole country as an extension of it
Good... BRTS is Pune is a classic example of poorly designed and badly implemented project.

We do need many more buses in Pune. Have been writing about this, and BRTS issues for many years.

Kharadi, Pune is following Mumbai style
All matchbox flats with 720-800 Sqft carpet area.
Pune used to be very good earlier, huge balconies and living area in flats - now everything gone 😭😭😭
25,000 saplings we planted in June last year in this patch. Of 30 different native species. After one years 98-100% survival, average 6 feet height.
A small video from one side of the patch. Few pics from different places.
