@manachittooru Did Whitefield to T.Nagar in 4hrs 30 mins without stops. Such a happy drive today.

[Yeshwanth T @yesh1th]

Had a great Drive back. Whitefield to T. Nagar in 4 hours and 30 minutes.
Hoskote - Baireddipalle on NE7
Baireddipalle - Chitoor on old madras highway
Chitoor - Uthukottai expressway
Uthukottai - Poonamalee on New Tirupathi highway and ORR..

100 km of the Bengaluru–Chennai Expressway is now open to traffic.

With the commissioning of the 25km Bethamangala–Baireddypalle stretch in Andhra Pradesh, motorists can now drive nearly 100 km of uninterrupted, access-controlled expressway from Hoskote to Baireddypalle.

The new stretch also improves connectivity beyond the expressway. At Chittoor, travellers can seamlessly access the Chittoor–Thatchur Expressway, which has been fully drivable from Chittoor to Uthukottai since May 1, 2026. From Uthukottai, the Chennai Outer Ring Road provides a fast bypass into the Chennai metropolitan region.

In Andhra, while work on Bangarupalem to Gudipala is complete, Baireddypalle-Bangarupalem stretch is still not complete.

Full expressway, including the Tamil Nadu leg, targeted for completion by December 2026 (doubtful?)

Epic stuff from the Keralam CM 🤣🤣

Our people have elected clowns and we are now living in a Circus 🤡 #TVKVijay‌Fails

Other states and even the Railway Minister should learn from this TVK Minister’s “smart passenger management” idea.

During an inspection at a crowded Chennai bus stand, he quickly found the problem, too many passengers without reservation.

Then he noticed there were only a few passengers with reserved tickets. So he came up with a “brilliant” solution:

👉 He asked passengers with confirmed tickets to share the same bus with passengers without reservation.

And crowd vanished like a Insta reels. 💡

What an idea sir Ji ! 🚍😂

@ESPNUK ESPN is packed with Arsenal haters.. All they do is whine and lose their shit about everything Arsenal.. They were even discussing how it would be cool to punch Arteta in the face.. 🤡

Prakasam Street, T. Nagar has become a nightmare. On one end SKCL Harmony Towers office cars are parked on both sides of the road. Other End is used as an illegal long term parking by heavy vehicles. Wide road has literally become a single lane! @ChennaiTraffic @vijaypnpa_ips

In 2006, my brother was doing his PhD.
Topic: Bovine AIDS.
Institute: a university in Mathura.
Coursework: HSADL, Bhopal, India’s top animal disease lab.

Then bird flu happened.

Suddenly, HSADL became the lab.
And suddenly, my brother was told to drop 1.5 years of research and switch topics.

Not because science demanded it.
Because the system did.

The deal was simple:
Change your topic, or lose your stipend.

He called me and said,
“I love my research. I don’t want to work on what babus want.”

For once, I didn’t give gyaan.
I gave him an exit.

“Apply outside India. Let’s see if anyone values your work.”

He applied to 8 universities.
7 in Australia, 1 in Europe.

Within hours, 7 offers came back.
5 with full scholarships and stipends.

The 8th replied three days later.
The professor was at a conference.
That’s it. That was the delay.

Why?

Because his CV was ridiculously good:
•17 international publications
•1 book
•54 national publications
•103 reviews

He went to Europe.
Finished his PhD.
Got a Post-Doc in Texas.
Applied for a Green Card.
Got it in 2 months.
Citizenship the moment he was eligible.

Still, he wanted to come back.

Because India is home & hope dies slowly.

In 2011, he applied for a professor’s job at JNKVV, Jabalpur.
Salary: ₹40,000/month.

They asked for hard copies of all publications.

I still remember packing a full carton of his papers and couriering it.

Then, on July 8, we got a letter dated July 6.

Interview: July 10. In person.

Bring:

•NOC from his current university
•Character certificate
•Hard copies again

Because “what if interviewers want to see?”

I called them.

“How does someone fly from Europe in two days?”

Answer:

“Interviews are till 12th. He must come.”

That was the moment we stopped trying.

India wasn’t rejecting him.
India was humiliating him.

Later, when he sent his HSADL work to Elsevier, the journal did a routine verification.

HSADL replied saying:

•He left without due process
•His stipend wasn’t settled
•His address was false

We sent:

•No Dues Certificate
•Formal relieving letter
•Proof that the address was the same as his passport
•Proof that our parents still live there

Didn’t matter.
Publication rejected.

That’s the system.

We happily talk about reservations. But we quietly harass competence.

And before someone says, “Things have changed under Modi” no, they haven’t.

I tried in 2023.
Same hard copies.
Same physical interviews.

I now work as a visiting professor with an IIT. Online.

My reimbursement request has been pending since August 2023.

The professor in charge says,
“I get 100 mails a day. I don’t check all.”

Fair enough.

This country doesn’t lack talent. It lacks respect for it.

And the smartest people don’t leave India for money. They leave to save their dignity

On a windy cold Starry night in 2012 in #Kodaikanal , put my #CanonEOS550D with 10-22 Lens on a 30s open shutter to capture that beautiful nightsky.

@Chandra4Bharat The Bus' overtake was clean. Completely your fault for tailgating the Bus like that. You should've had way more distance between you and the bus. You put your life at risk there.

[Yeshwanth T @yesh1th]

@3rdEyeDude The Car driver is an idiot.. Vehicles trying tight overtakes is very common, especially busses.. You always slowdown when you see a vehicle coming at you.. He didn't until the very last minute.. And he also swerved onto the right rather than move left.. Complete moron
