@BillTheKid1603 I remember watching an interview of Farage where he said his 'Crystal Ball prediction' would be India overtaking China to become ruler of this century. This is your brain on Civnat-ism.

Shrey knocking down 32 words in 90s, Pooja clearing the 1.93 meter bar, Vaibhav reaching 97 in 29 and Pragg calmly taking down perhaps the goat of chess, has been quite something to witness these past 48 hrs. Feeling a beautiful wind of change, that a bold new generation is here, in a class of their own and an andaz of their own... #KeepOnRocking @narendramodi

@AMR1T1 Typical MBA bakwaas. Design's "value" only existed when Pax Americana was keeping the world's trade routes open and you could get your designs reliably fabbed from wherever . Post Trump II, it's a disaster to be fabless.

In Karnataka, the govt. promotes Karnataka’s own Nandini company milk and dairy products, because govt. stands for Kannadigas. Leaving aside Metro Dairy and Mother Dairy, Amul is now set to invest ₹650 crore in Bengal — because whose government does Bengal seem to have now?

Rathores of Marwar made this while they ruled over a territory which was largely a desert. If they had an influence over India’s town planning or at least building designs, we could have great looking Govt buildings which were going to last 100 years or more.

"India is overcrowded" is the most successful gaslighting campaign Indian babus ever ran on their own citizens. They underbuilt the country for forty years and convinced 1.4B Indians to blame themselves for it. Every overcrowded space you've ever queued in is a supply failure the state engineered, not a demographic accident. Five lifts in a hospital, one working. Seven railway counters, one ticketer. Toll plazas, water boards, municipal offices: built once in 1972, patched once in 1996, abandoned ever since. The only exception is airports, and even those lounges are gigafried at peak. Why did this happen? 4 reasons, none of them are "too many people." 1. Cost of capital. Rupee down 60% against the dollar in two decades. Inflation 5-7% on paper, 8-10% in reality. Risk-free rates above 7%. No rational allocator underwrites a hospital with a 30-year payback under those conditions. Capital flows into software and consumer brands; anything with a 3-5 year ROI window. Parks, ports, metros, dams, schools need multi-decade underwriting that India's macro structurally cannot support. 2. The regulatory stack is engineered to prevent construction. 50+ clearances across municipal, state, and central bodies for any large project, each with its IAS gatekeeper extracting rent. Real builders give up. The only construction happening at scale is therefore illegal, which is exactly why slums mushroom while sanctioned housing projects sit at 15% completion for a decade. 3. The corruption tax. Budget 15-20% of project cost in bakshish before pouring a single slab. Stacked on top of GST, stamp duty, capital gains, property tax, labour cess. Software shops escape it; they ship from a laptop. Anyone touching cement, steel, or land pays the surcharge in cash, off the books, with zero recourse and zero deductibility. 4. State capacity has collapsed into pure friction. GST portal crashes on filing deadlines. MCA21 is a relic. Every regulator (SEBI, RBI, IRDAI, FSSAI, BIS) optimises for CYA, never throughput. Babus paid 1990s salaries to administer 2026 complexity respond rationally by doing nothing. India's perpetual undercapacity is a capital allocation story the political class would rather you never learn. The 1.4B is a feature. The people running the country are the bug. Until cost of capital drops, the regulatory fat gets gutted, and the corruption surcharge gets squeezed out, the lifts and the counters and the hospitals will stay exactly as broken as they were when your grandfather first complained about them in 1987.

Every single place in India is just so overcrowded. - Want to go to a park? Hundreds are already there, not enough space. - Want to go to a temple? You won’t even get five minutes of peace. - Want to visit a hill station? Not a single hotel is available. - Same with Ladakh, Uttarakhand, and everywhere else. It feels like the calmest place is your own house.

Nashik has some of the best streets (even though not that big roads) and well-planned localities where you won’t find a single slum in the area. But still long way to go🤞🏻

@MinOfPower 22 percent solar! That’s awesome. It’s great for India because peak air conditioning power demand also matches peak solar power generation times

Today's peak demand was met with the following mix: Thermal 62.8%, Solar 22.0%, Wind 5.0%, Hydro 5.8% and rest from other sources. The availability of coal at the Thermal Power Plants is adequate and the supplies are being effectively monitored.

Today was the 4th consecutive day when the peak power demand (solar hours) reached a new all-time high. At 1545 hours (21.5.2026), the peak power demand (solar hours) of 270.82 GW was successfully met.

@Richetler @anon062002 @LondonVoice_ @SinghKislaya lol looks like the prison colony doesn’t get newspapers Or else this kangaroo would have known that the Indian railways has increased in track length from 53,000 km when the British left vs 135,000 km today and runs 25,000 trains per day , 99 percent tracks electrified

Don’t you fucking dare go near Iceland. I’ve been there. It’s one of the cleanest, purest, most untouched countries on the planet, with stunningly beautiful people. Importing Indians there is the equivalent of dumping garbage in a crystal clear mountain stream. An affront to God and nature.
Narendra Modi@narendramodi

Had a wonderful meeting with Prime Minister Kristrún Frostadóttir of Iceland. India deeply values the friendship with Iceland. We talked about ways to improve ties in areas such as clean energy, fisheries, sustainability, geothermal energy, carbon capture and storage and more. Iceland’s prowess in sectors relating to the Blue Economy is admirable. We are hopeful that the historic India-EFTA TEPA will give an impetus to trade and investment linkages as well.

@PankajPachauri If you read the article, you will see that these reasons were not stated by Tesla, but by “analysts” Other brands are selling lots and lots of EVs just fine

Tesla bids Bye-Bye to India. Reasons: “Inadequate local infrastructure; a mismatch between the purchasing power of India’s automotive market and Tesla’s premium product positioning; and uncertainties and policy risks associated with India’s business environment.”

@cbdhage All of these are snacks tapris. The market is saying that there is a concentrated demand for cheap food here. There is probably a large IT park around. Demand generates it's own supply. Make permanent arrangements than fighting this losing battle again and again

AgniKul Cosmos@AgnikulCosmos·
Humbled to share that we successfully test fired 4 semi-cryogenic rocket engines simultaneously, as a cluster. All the 4 engines are 3d printed as single pieces of hardware - designed and manufactured in-house at AgniKul Cosmos Rocket Factory - 1. As with all our propulsion systems, these 4 engines are also powered by electric motor driven pumps. This test involved calibrating 8 pumps, 8 motors and tuning 8 speed control algorithms to work together in perfect sync to achieve uniform startup, steady state and shutdown performance across the entire system. As with the last cluster test, to the best of our knowledge, this is the first time such a test has been performed in India with semi cryogenic engines. We are extremely grateful to have the opportunity to be building world class, original space technology from India, for the world with the support of @iitmadras @isro and @INSPACeIND From here on, the addition of engines to our clusters will likely increase non-linearly. #Agnibaan #RocketEngineCluster #ElectricPumpFedEngines #Agnilet #SinglePieceEngine #3dprinting #RocketEngineTest #AdditiveManufacturing #Agnikul #AgnikulCosmos #StartupIndia #MakeinIndia #madeinIndiaForTheWorld @srinathr155 @moin_spm @satchakra_iitm @iitmadras @iitmrp @IITMIC @tdbgoi @IndiaDST @ANRFIndia @TIDCO_1965 @startupindia @TheStartupTN @Guidance_TN @startup_mission @SIPCOTTN

There is a simple thing that Indians must understand. If you are a strong proponent of the geopolitical success and rise of your own country, you will not be liked by many other countries who do not wish to see this rise. So being berated, even heckled, is part of that journey.
