We write the code for the entire world, so why can't we just build our own WhatsApp or Twitter? It is the most common pushback I get when talking about our tech dependence. The reality is we actually tried, and the results teach us a brutal lesson. • Messaging: Sandes and Arattai are beautifully built platforms. But how do you convince 500 million people to leave their WhatsApp family groups? You cannot beat a deeply entrenched habit with just better features. • Social Media: Koo had massive funding and national hype. It still shut down this year. The silent killer? Scaling cloud infrastructure costs an absolute fortune. Without a global audience to drive massive revenue, the hosting math simply does not work. • Short Video: Moj and ShareChat absolutely dominated the market. But let us be honest, they won because a sudden regulatory ban wiped out TikTok overnight. The harsh truth is that coding a great app is only 10 percent of the battle. The other 90 percent is fighting human psychology and paying massive server bills. What do you think it will actually take for a homegrown app to beat a global giant without relying on a government ban?

Thank you Modi ji. 🙏🙏Here are 10 interesting facts that makes the new Noida International Airport a massive deal for Indian aviation: - It is designed to eventually be Asia’s largest, spanning 7,200 acres with six runways. - Phase 1 is already live and ready to handle 12 million flyers right off the bat. - The project is run by the Swiss team behind Zurich Airport, bringing serious operational efficiency. - UP just became the first Indian state to boast five international airports. - The terminal architecture actually mimics Varanasi’s riverfront ghats and traditional havelis. - The entire facility is built from the ground up to operate with net-zero emissions. - It acts as a heavy hitting logistics gateway, starting with a 2.5 lakh metric tonne cargo capacity. - Domestic airlines finally get a massive 40 acre local maintenance and repair facility. - It plugs directly into the Yamuna Expressway, with future high speed rail links already planned. - It operates as a twin system with IGI to actually solve the NCR traffic bottleneck rather than just competing.

आज जिस नोएडा इंटरनेशनल एयरपोर्ट का उद्घाटन हुआ है, वह डबल इंजन सरकार के प्रयासों और हमारी कार्य-संस्कृति का शानदार उदाहरण है। इससे पता चलता है कि युद्ध के वैश्विक संकट के बीच भी भारत निरंतर आगे बढ़ रहा है।

Yep, and imagine the frustration in the Opposition’s strategy room right now. They really picked the worst hill to die on this time. They are getting busted more often than a leaky pipe.😂 Modi ji isn’t just delivering fuel, he's delivering a reality check. Maybe next time they should try an agenda that doesn't evaporate on contact.😁

Unfortunate!! While we blame the lack of cycling lanes, the real rot is much deeper. The core issue isn't just bad infrastructure, it's the culture of parental negligence and zero accountability. In major European cities , though mostly there are dedicated bike lanes, bikes and cars also often share the same narrow roads without this level of carnage. They have a clear hierarchy: pedestrians first, then cyclists, then cars. Everyone respects that order because the legal consequences for breaking it are devastating. In India, parents allow minors behind the wheel and then wonder why our streets feel like a gamble. Until the government holds parents criminally liable for handing keys to a child, no amount of fitness tracks will make us safe. But definitely as you said,staying healthy shouldn't require a death wish.

A 42-year-old well-known local businessman in Mumbai had gained some weight. This Sunday, he discussed with his family about adding cycling to his fitness routine. On Monday, he bought a new cycle. On Tuesday, he went for his first ride, and was killed by a speeding car from behind. The car driver is a minor, so you can imagine how easily he will get away with this. This incident underscores a broader issue behind India’s fitness problem. Most cities simply don’t offer safe, dedicated spaces for basic activities like running or cycling. People are pushed onto public roads, forced to navigate erratic traffic, stray dogs, and constant risk. When staying fit itself feels unsafe, people understandably choose not to do it.

simply putting Congress was openly admitting that we are so scared & spineless that we couldn't even dream of punishing Pakistan for slaughtering Indians. Modi didn't just dream he delivered. Surgical Strikes, Balakot, and Pakistan's terror machine turned to ashes. No more endless funerals. That's real change.

Adding further a bit of data here which highlights how India is rewiring how it fuels itself which is helping us to be safe during the war situation. Have a look below and and judge the government on facts and not on what Opposition says. For the last six months, the strategy hasn't been about picking one partner, but about not being stuck with just one. Besides Russian oil imports which India has never stopped due to any US pressure, The Middle East stepped back into the driver's seat, with Saudi Arabia and the UAE reclaiming significant ground. Domestic production is still a bit sluggish, but the refineries are running at over 100% capacity to handle this new mix. That massive 60 million barrel Russian deal for April isn't a reversal; it's a hedge against Hormuz risks. It is a masterclass in playing the field to keep the lights on.

And also look at the insanity. Why majority of the Indians are hardwired to panic first and look at the data second. Despite official confirmations that our fuel reserves are totally fine, the queues at the pumps are out of control. It shows how easily global tensions can make people feel vulnerable right at home. Bad information spreads faster when people are already anxious about a crisis. Thanks to Congress and other oppoistion parties. But hoarding resources just manufactures the exact shortage everyone is afraid of. Trust the actual supply numbers, not the hysteria.

So many things are wrong with this: 1. How easy it is for people to hoard petrol despite it being explicitly banned. In case you wonder where petrol bombs during riots come from, this should answer you. 2. A person possessing illegal petrol is openly making and uploading a video, showing absolutely zero fear of the law. 3. Everything about the main character revolves around his religion, yet he has a problem with a nationalist, non-religious slogan. 4. The Hindus accepting his posturing and silencing the slogans for merely a couple of hundred rupees’ worth of petrol.

3/ Our momentum in artificial intelligence hits a permanent dead end. We lose access to the advanced computing power needed to train large models. Top tier tech talent starts fleeing to more stable environments. We are pushed back an entire decade in the global innovation race. The sheer economic bleeding becomes impossible to hide. 💪But this nightmare scenario would also force our hand. Absolute necessity is the ultimate driver of raw innovation. We would finally pour massive capital into pure domestic research. We would be forced to build our own base layer technology from scratch. It would be an incredibly painful decade of isolation. But we would emerge on the other side with true strategic autonomy.🦾🦾

2/ Then the harsh national security reality sets in. Supply lines for American fighter jet engines dry up instantly. Our air force has to start cannibalizing parts just to keep existing planes flying. Advanced drone purchases and military communication networks are completely blocked. Decades of strategic defense modernization evaporate overnight. Next comes the total collapse of our electronics manufacturing dream. Local engineers lose access to the specific American software tools required to design chips. Factories assembling smartphones and laptops run out of imported critical components. Foreign investment in our hardware sector drops to absolute zero. Millions of jobs tied to the global tech supply chain vanish.

EU sanction on Russian companies or Russia-linked companies has caused tsunami. We had to shutdown our consulting services in Russia. Nothing can be done. Many global ERP players and Big Techs like Oracle, Microsoft Google have also suspended services. However in this case, the contract could have been governed by Indian law, executed purely between two Indian companies (Nayara Energy and SAP India Pvt Ltd). However unfortunately there are two blond spots that is causing a roadblock. There is no sanction contingency clause that could state a plan and protect the consumer in case of geopolitical sanctions impacted operations. SAP licenses are actually centrally governed by SAP SE Germany. With this, I doubt Indian court could make a judgment in favor of Nayara. BTW SAP Licenses are extremely expensive but worst, a company like Nayara core business processes ruining on SAP are stand still causing further revenue loss. Switching to another ERP provider like Oracle could become a multi year project. But this should be an eye opener for Indian companies and also the government regulator and I hope they will enforce required sanction clauses in service provided contracts.

Imagine going to work expecting your salary, only to find payments stuck because a foreign software company has halted services due to external sanctions. That’s what’s happening with Nayara Energy. Nayara is an Indian company, though Russia’s Rosneft holds a 49.13% stake. It had a valid contract with the Indian entity of SAP, a German software services company. Yet, citing EU sanctions on Russia, SAP has suspended services for Nyara energy, treating an Indian firm as if it were a sanctioned Russian entity. This isn’t a small issue. SAP runs critical systems like payments, supply chains, and taxes. Disrupting it affects salaries, operations, and even energy supply. The key question is: why should foreign geopolitical affairs override lawful contracts in India? We already enforce RBI compliance on foreign firms in finance; we need similar safeguards to ensure contracts in India are honoured, companies are protected from foreign sanctions, and critical operations aren’t disrupted by external decisions. If not addressed, this sets a dangerous precedent, leaving Indian businesses vulnerable to decisions made far beyond our borders. etedge-insights.com/technology/why…

We love celebrating India's rapid rise to the world's third largest economy. We dominate global headlines with massive growth and huge domestic wins. But the current global landscape is incredibly volatile right now. Wars and shifting alliances are changing the rules overnight. The US frequently makes unilateral decisions and hands out sanctions without consulting friends. That popular natural ally label is starting to feel heavily one sided. This makes our current reliance on American technology a massive blind spot. We have to start quietly building alternatives before we get boxed in. Everyone assumes India is completely self sufficient today but we quietly ignore who holds the actual keys. Our entire strategic future is heavily tethered to American technology. Let me break down exactly where we rely on them. 🧵👇

It took 25 years and 14 different governments for the Jewar Airport to move from a paper proposal to a 3,300-acre reality. The inauguration on March 28 isn't just about a new runway; it is a case study in how political will can finally bridge the gap between "proposed" and "operational." Thanks to Modi ji. When a government actually prioritizes the common man, finding the resources to build Asia's largest greenfield airport stops being an excuse and starts being the objective. Have a look at the transformation of India's aviation sector after 2014 under Modi ji's leadership. The scale of this shift is visible in the numbers, with the country moving from 74 operational airports in 2014 to over 160 today. In the last decade alone, we've seen the rise of iconic hubs like Mopa in Goa, Donyi Polo in Arunachal, and now the massive DXN in Noida. This is what happens when infrastructure is treated as a national asset rather than a political talking point.

Someone pls take care of Akhilesh Yadav. He might get cardiac arrest due to heartburn on 28 Mar when PM .@narendramodi Ji inaugurates Jewar (Noida) International Airport. Afterall, Akhilesh worked so hard to not let it happen by trying to shift it to Firozabad, then Agra. Proposed in 2001, it took 25 ys & needed one Modi-Yogi Govt to finally become reality. Bharat's largest Greenfield Airport is not just an airport. It's a proof of what UP becomes when the 'right' Govt is in power.
