Several years ago, engineers at a major Indian OEM wanted to add a simple valve to their own engine. They knew how to do it. The problem: the software running inside their own vehicle's ECU was locked. The key was in Germany. Three years later, the problem remained unsolved. 🧵

@thekaipullai Not an MLA or MP but EAC-PM member Sanjeev Sanyal's ancestors were revolutionaries who fought the British. indiaofthepast.org/surajit-sanyal…(I%20wrote%20back,illustrious%20fighters%20for%20India%27s%20freedom.

Genuine question Are there any current MPs or MLAs, whose forefathers actually fought for Indian independence? When I meant fought, I mean fought. Like getting shot, tortured, jailed or hanged Not stay in places with valet, breakfast and newspapers and call it imprisonment.

Now, there is a website to translate from English to LinkedIn language. 😂🙊

Indian Railways 16yrs ago (2009) 😲 We don't realise but we've come a long way 🤞🏻

Whenever the Middle East is in peril always good to remember how once an Indian president and a Bengali accent almost led to a diplomatic crisis…

We knew we shouldn't have made the F-35 with 14 seats.

@mayaofspring The official afghan govt (taliban) using a Gmail address for approvals is insane 😂

Today is the ninth anniversary of the BBC Dad blooper. Marion is now 13; James is now 9. Some recent pictures are attached below. We did an interview looking back on the blooper for @InsideEdition, which should be up shortly. 1 youtube.com/watch?v=Mh4f9A…

BREAKING: Players from the Iranian women’s soccer team used their phone flashlights to issue SOS signals that they don’t want to board the plane back to Iran from Australia.

You're telling me the British Defence Attache to a Desert country is a guy called "Captain Sandy Sandilands"

Never leaving this app

#1 reason for India to maintain cordial relations with all manner of Mickey Mouse countries is that we never know when we'll have to evacuate a bunch of capitation fee college kids out of there.

*Once an Indian Navy Sea Hawk took off from INS Vikrant* It’s mission??? To get Married !! An epic story I found when I was browsing for Indian Navy Sea Hawks. ''Sometime in May 1965 the war clouds with our western neighbour were building up and Vikrant steamed out into the Arabian Sea to provide some gunboat diplomacy of the ' beware we are on alert' sort to Islamabad. Such sudden deployments cause disruption in the lives of the crew but that is what the Navy is about. One such disrupted young Lieutenant who was a bindaas (to use a Bombay term) Sea Hawk pilot who was scheduled to proceed on leave to get married the day the ship sailed and suddenly found himself far from the railway station that would take him to Bangalore. Possibly after a lot of requesting and discussions with his superior his Captain ordered him to take off at dawn on the big day in his Sea Hawk and set course for Bangalore and get back on deck by 0600 hours the next morning. Off went our young bridegroom. The Navy may be strict, but it likes to take care of its seamen and the Fleet Commander Rear Admiral BA Samson blessed this adventure. But how was he to carry his clothes and toothpaste. A bright technician suggested they empty out the cannon ammunition bay and that made just enough space for his clothes to be stuffed into. Onto the steam catapult and off to the old HAL airport at Bangalore. The bride of this arranged marriage lived close to the airport and between the nervous ma-in-law to be and pensive pa-in-law and clueless bridegroom’s parents they didn’t know what to do. Here was the auspicious day and the hero nowhere in sight. Because the ship was on a full alert patrol there was no radio communication at all and let alone the relatives. Even HAL airport control tower did not know that our man was zeroing in till he asked for permission to land!. Then suddenly the piercing roar of the Rolls Royce turbo jet filled their ears and thumped their hearts. Our man deftly landed, parked his flying machine and was whisked away for the muhurttam with literally minutes to spare. Next morning 0400 hours he took off again and in little over 90 minutes got back to the carriers deck in the middle of the sea. This young pilot was SK Gupta who later commanded INAS 300 White Tigers in the 1971 war and was awarded the Maha Vir Chakra. Later in life he rose to flag rank. On his return there were no flowers on the ship to celebrate his new status but his fellow pilots not to be put off garlanded him with a mala made of vegetables.'' In the pic you can see how his colleagues have wrote ‘’Just Married’’ on his Sea Hawk with a pair of boots tied on to the nose of the aircraft.

I’m fascinated by Dr. Shubha V. Iyengar because she literally helps planes land through fog while most of us are learning to move through metaphorical fog. Topper in BSc & MSc, backed by parents who encouraged her interest in science when girls rarely were inspired to pursue it. 40+ years at CSIR–NAL & she led the team that developed Drishti, built for India’s fog, rain, dust, and uncertainty. When the world feels unclear, remember: someone built systems so others could land safely. She is my #MondayMotivation

Here is a full road route from Madras to Bangalore as published 186 years ago in 1839. Note: Chennai to Bengaluru always had multiple notified routes since early 1800s, as it does today.
