@FT @aravind look at the framing. Clearly agenda driven

@GabbbarSingh We have seen Latent getting immense love and the protest now.

Abuses, slurs, misogyny, classicism, casteism etc all are cool and acceptable as long as they are in the form of jokes and sarcasm.

I think its just the new normal now for country's youth.

@jasveer10 I feel they were strategic. They waited deliberately for NEET re examination results to come out on 19th ( The PM even mentioned it in his video ).

After the results were out and the exam was a success, they started their clean up.

@TweetinderKaul I think they were waiting for the 19th re examination results to take place

India, let's accelerate. Founders, investors, policymakers—DM me for collabs on BESS projects. What's your take on this crisis? Reply below! #SolarIndia #RenewableEnergy #Geopolitics

[Deepanshu Bansal @x_deepbansal]

As a solar + BESS founder, I've seen tenders explode (SECI's 10 GW BESS push). Scale storage now. Policies like PLI for batteries + uranium deals are steps, but we need faster adoption. Imagine: War-proof grids powered by Indian sun & tech.

[Deepanshu Bansal @x_deepbansal]

Solution: True energy independence via renewables. India's RE target: 500 GW by 2030. But solar alone isn't enough—need BESS for 24/7 power. With BESS, we store daytime solar for peak evenings, reducing import needs by 20-30% in grids. No more price shocks from wars.

[Deepanshu Bansal @x_deepbansal]

Geopolitics = energy risks. Middle East tensions expose our over-reliance on imports from volatile regions. Russia helps now, but what about next? Strait closures aren't new (think 2019 tanker attacks). Time to decouple energy from global conflicts.

[Deepanshu Bansal @x_deepbansal]

India imports 88% of its oil.
Higher fuel costs → inflation surge (0.3-0.6% GDP dent per 10% price rise)
LNG/LPG disruptions (Qatar supplies at risk)
Even basmati rice/tea exports threatened. Sectors like cement, logistics, power face margin squeezes.

Strait of Hormuz: Carries 20% of global oil, 40% of India's crude imports. Iran closed it after US/Israeli strikes killed their leader on Feb 28. Result? 9.5M barrels of Russian oil now diverting to us as backup. But prices up 10%+ already. PM Modi called CCS meet on Mar 2.

[Deepanshu Bansal @x_deepbansal]

The US-Israel-Iran conflict just shut down the Strait of Hormuz. Oil prices spiking, LNG shipments halted. This is India's wake-up call: We can't afford energy dependence anymore. Here's why & how we fix it.
