Vinfast plans to enter India’s bus segment with its range of electric buses.
It is setting up a 500 acre plant in Tamil Nadu for producing these locally.
Switzerland is turning the unused space between train tracks into solar power plants.
A startup called Sun-Ways is piloting removable solar panels that roll out like a carpet between the rails.
No new land needed, easy to maintain, and they feed clean energy straight into the grid.
If the US scaled something similar across its massive rail network, it could generate enough clean, homegrown electricity to power millions of homes.
This is the kind of smart, low-impact idea that gets more clean energy online without paving over more fields or wild spaces.
Innovations like this show we can produce the power we need while leaving more room for wildlife and nature.
Pretty cool engineering with a big upside if you ask me.
The exit poll doesn't account for the impact of the Satru Samhara Pooja. Only Axis India understood the power of Anna's pilgrimage. Stay calm and say, "Sai Sai."

I challenge the Dravida jokers to remove this non Tamil text from there.
Anyone who has visited Rameshwaram would have noticed this while passing over the Pamban Bridge.
I repeat, this is a challenge. Go ahead and try. I will watch you get beaten like stray dogs 🍿
Nai 🐶 Addi Payi 👹 Addi you will get!!
Also the idea of converting/expanding existing libraries into learning spaces is applaudable. I visited a recently opened Mudhalvar Padaipagam; it gives a wonderful place for anyone who needs to learn peacefully. Was glad to see so many minds immersed in their learning.
Having watched multiple interviews praising Radhika's acting and a rare women centric film by a senior actress, this movie felt like a marketing scam. She was only on screen for the first 20 minutes and the last two. A similar scam occurred in Seedhakadhi. #ThaaiKizhavi
There are two types of music fans: those who like music that makes them feel something and connect emotionally, and Ilaiyaraaja's music does that for them.
The second type is people who like modern sounds only; this group might not like Ilaiyaraaja music. 😊
@kirubaakaran@arrahman@noiseandgrains Rahman had to endure all the hate last time due to poor organizing. As an AR fan, this concert felt like Rahman hitting a century after a diamond duck. Loved the center holographic screen.
@BakarBansal There was a startup called Yo! Potato in chennai around 2012. They tried groceries as well along with food. Shut down around 2014. I remember using tiny owl around 2015.
Tejasvi ji - as those belonging to the lineages of Sanatan Dharma. We know that rain is controlled by the Gods; and whilst on the surface this is an infrastructure issue, this is also the wrath and rage of Prakriti, our Bhumi Devi who has been abused by unconscious capitalism. We are abusing our planet every single day, and the only path to undoing that karma is through Dharmic rituals.
Not only generic, but specifically invoking the rise in ecoconsciousness in all Bharatiyas, the protection of nature and that all Bharatiya businesses align themselves to ecological protection. We have far more advanced technology than the UN, WEF and World Bank - and that is our lineage traditions, yagya and Devatas.
I am already pushing this effort forward by myself in Kashi. We have already conducted two Nav Chandi Homams for persecuted Hindus, strength of armed forces and Bharat Mata. I want to extend this to the environment, and definitely for Bangalore. We need knowledge exchange between Kashi and Dakshin Bharat Brahmins also.
If the infrastructure can be supported with the intelligence of the Devatas, I have no doubt that Bangalore can become India’s model of an eco conscious city that preserves its ancient Hindu heritage and traditions as well. I would love to discuss this with you also. Har Har Mahadev 🌺🙏🏼
I write this with deep anguish - not just as a politician, but as an Indian.
When I heard Asawari Jagdale describe how her father was asked to recite the Quran before being shot, I shivered. When I saw Hindu men slaughtered like cattle in Pahalgam, I was furious.
But what unsettled me most was how quickly this horror was turned into a political weapon. Not to unite a grieving nation, but to divide it further.
This is exactly what the terrorists wanted. They didn’t just aim to kill. They aimed to create mistrust.
To turn Indian Hindus against Indian Muslims. To fracture communities. To plant poison between neighbours and friends.
Already, trolls are posting, “No need to go to Kashmir, there are Muslims everywhere, start with the one you see.” Landlords in Prayagraj are evicting Kashmiri students for “security concerns.”
Hate, dressed up as patriotism.
But ask yourself: where are the real questions?
Why did this security lapse happen? Why were the number of troops cut in the valley as part of cost-saving measures?
Why has no one spoken of the Muslim man who died saving Hindu lives? Why are we ignoring Kashmiris who sheltered tourists, held protests, and launched helplines?
These stories exist. They just don’t serve a divisive narrative.
Make no mistake, this is a deliberate campaign.
A political handle in Chhattisgarh posts a Studio Ghibli-style cartoon of a grieving widow - then deletes it, once the damage has already been done.
Instead of mourning as Indians, we’re being told to mourn as Hindus. Instead of uniting as Indians, we’re being urged to divide ourselves by faith.
This was a targeted attack on Hindus. Denying that is dishonest.
There is a long and painful history here: from the forced exodus of Kashmiri Pandits to attacks on Amarnath yatris.
But using this pain to pit Indian against Indian is unforgivable. That is the terrorists’ final victory. And we must not let them win.
@OmarAbbasHyat@DalrympleWill I read this book during a beautiful Himalayan trek in 2019. It is an experience I still cherish. The stories drew me close to the places where they happened and inspired me to visit those locations.
