@vikramsathaye Their Biggest contribution is also in the area of education esp Women education. Maharashtra led by so many great social reformers during that time.
My interview with @IndiaToday on why we need a Covid like, all of government, Multi- sectoral urgent action on #AirPollution. Science based, public health oriented action is needed - a Swachh Vayu Abhiyaan. https://t.co/djlFFwgD3p
@neeran True ,but they had real trouble on ground with a far more tougher local mindset. Proud of my state Maharashtra that lead the social reform movement . Today it seems a little different :(
My respect for Social Reformers of past has grown in multiples . It must have been so tough for them to convince society against Sati, Child marriage and women exploitation. We can’t convince people to stop firecrackers for their own lungs . Salute to them🫡
दिवाळी उत्सव आणि लक्ष्मीपूजनाच्या दिवशी फटाक्यांमुळे आगीच्या घटनांमध्ये वाढ झाली असतानाही पुणे महानगरपालिकेचे अग्निशमन दलाचे अधिकारी व जवान नागरिकांच्या सुरक्षेसाठी तत्पर राहिले.
लक्ष्मीपूजनाच्या दिवशी सकाळी ७ वाजेपर्यंत नियंत्रण कक्षात फटाक्यांमुळे आग लागल्याच्या ९४ घटनांची नोंद झाली. अग्निशमन दल मुख्यालयासह शहरातील २३ अग्निशमन केंद्रांमधील वाहने घटनास्थळी दाखल होत आगीवर नियंत्रण मिळविण्यासाठी कार्यरत होती.
सुदैवाने या घटनांमध्ये कोणतीही जीवितहानी किंवा दुखापत झाली नाही.
सणाचा आनंद साजरा होत असताना नागरिकांच्या सुरक्षिततेला प्राधान्य देत रात्रभर कर्तव्य बजावणाऱ्या अग्निशमन दलाच्या सर्व अधिकारी आणि जवानांच्या सेवेला सलाम!

🚨@mybmc has banned the use of rockets, other aerial #firecrackers across #Mumbai until November 25, following a spate of fires triggered by #Diwali firecrackers. The prohibition applies to both public and private spaces, including terraces, balconies, parking lots and slum areas
Pune recorded 94 fire incidents during Diwali Lakshmi Pujan in 2026, more than double the 43 incidents reported in 2025 — marking a sharp 118% increase in a single year. A fire incident was also reported at Paradise Building in Bhoslenagar. Other major incidents across the city included fires at a printing press on Satara Road, a godown in Mangalwar Peth and a residential flat in Range Hills. Firecrackers are suspected to have triggered several incidents. Fortunately, the Fire Brigade managed to bring all the fires under control, with no major casualties reported.
Remembering Bharatratna Maharishi Dhondo Keshav Karve, one of the pioneers of women's education in India, on his 64th Punyatithi.
He lived to a grand old age of 104; continuing his work till the end.
His whole life is an amazing, inspiring journey of selfless dedication.
Did my Morning Yoga ! Took deep breaths of Sulphur , Potassium Nitrate ! My Lungs were filled with so much Joy. Our ancestors must be so proud of how we are maintaining our Culture and our beautiful land & environment 😊 .
Salute to all the municipality workers of our country. Their job today to clean up is a tough one. Hope we all clear the leftover’s around our houses to help them.
When you are starting in life you are humble , you have conversations , you handle disagreements maturely. Then you become powerful and then your ego makes you believe communication can be only one way ! Applies to all sectors of life .
