@ChrisSeltzer @atlanticesque It's a massive component. A city dedicated to cars and commuting infrastructure can never be a true city.

What a tight sl@p to MEITY by the Delhi High Court.
I am glad Nimo Yadav dragged them to court.
Snatching someone’s voice which they spent years building should never be accepted in a democracy.
Well fought @DrNimoYadav 👏🏻

@Khurpenchinfra Please don't glorify this. You guys will only mock if some babu gets inspired from this and implements it in some Indian cities.

France is cooling highways with mist tunnels.
Meanwhile, we can’t even keep roads pothole-free or drains covered.
Same heat. Different priorities.

@Sporty_Baba Even in Kolkata, WB govt is determined to destroy the tram services citing bullshit reasons instead of modernising them. @_CTUA_ is fighting hard at court for saving them. Do support them. If trams comeback in Kolkata, it can be a great example for other cities.

The most obvious answer is Trams. Imagine people bet on cars over Trams. Was shortsightedness both from mobility & environmental pov.
Also looks like the most obvious solution to decongest the city but our babus think about pod taxis over buses / trams.

@ManiSudhanshu58 Tbh railways nowadays don't have any clear direction, it feels like they are doing whatever the hell is coming in their mind.

@the_hindu @Chetan_Gowda18 Bengaluru needs these journalists to stop advocating for congestion shifting flyovers instead of public transport and skywalks instead of zebra crossings that forces pedestrians to put extra efforts and treats them as second class citizens

First they started Amrit Bharat trains claiming like they would be Non ac version of Vande Bharat meant for poor
Now they are going to introduce Amrit Bharat trains with AC coaches
Railways are totally running on weed nowadays

These tram workshops could be housing shiny modern AC trams, but unfortunately we aren't interested as public transport in India starts and ends with the metro.
A century's worth of knowledge with trams lost to time and regressive attitude towards them.

In India, #cycling isn’t seen as freedom.
It’s seen as fallback.
Which is why cities don’t build for it.
When mobility gets linked to status, we stop designing for what’s efficient and start chasing what’s aspirational!!

@AshwiniVaishnaw Exactly what types of upgradation has been done?

🚆 Passengers की सुरक्षा और सुविधा बढ़ाने के लिए रेलवे ने नए डिज़ाइन के coach और बेहतर टॉयलेट्स के मॉडल तैयार किए हैं। मौजूदा coach को अपग्रेड कर एक सैंपल coach तैयार किया गया है।

This is the exact reason why we started this movement
We are Against Police Brutality on Peaceful Citizens and we support the Right to Record the Police
We want Mandatory Body Cameras for all Police. If you agree with us on these issues
Join the movement !
The Nalanda Index@Nalanda_index
🚨 Brutality Caught on Camera in Bettiah This incident is from Bettiah, where a minor was allegedly brutally beaten by police personnel just for recording a video as they arrived at his house. The visuals clearly show the level of force used this isn’t law enforcement, this is sheer abuse of power. Such actions cannot be justified under any circumstances. Strict and immediate action must be taken against those responsible. Justice must prevail. @bihar_police @Bettiah_Police

Yes an entire slum stones throw away from a runway is acceptable but legit place for spotters isn't. Just babu things.
Pretty much like RPF targets only railfans

Fun Fact: Back in 2018-19, Kempegowda International Airport, Bengaluru, Planned to Set-Up a Permanent Spotting Deck for Planespotters! 🇮🇳 However, owing to Security Issues & Multiple Hurdles, the Plan Fell Through 🥲
