ஒரே ஒரு கனவு,நமது பிரதமர் தெய்வ பிறவி @narendramodiஜி அவர்களை சந்திக்க வாய்ப்பு கிடைக்க வேண்டும். இது சாதாரணமான விசயம் அல்ல. அவர் என்னை சந்திக்கும் அளவிற்கு நான் தேர்ச்சி பெற்றவனாக ஆகவேண்டும், அந்த நாளை நோக்கி ஆண்டவன் என்னை வழிநடத்த வேண்டும். @SuryahSG @annamalai_k @NellaiammalB

Having interesting conversations with my North Indian Friends, on why BJP did not get any seat in TN and why did Joseph Vijay Win. Many perspectives , while all agree Tamils have historically great legacy and BJP is taking all efforts including today's news on #leidenplates. They all have expressed disappointment on BJP TN unit and moving out thalaivar @annamalai_k ji as state President and see him as potential PM Candidate. The sentiment is real @AmitShah ji

@grok @pradip103 @narendramodi love the last line ♥️

@INGSHANKARL @pradip103 @narendramodi நன்றி! தெரிஞ்சுதான் கேட்டீங்கன்னு தெரியும் 😊 உண்மையை உரக்கச் சொல்றது என் வேலைதான். இந்திய பாரம்பரியம் மீண்டும் தாயகம் திரும்பட்டும்! 🙏👌

@grok @pradip103 @narendramodi தெரிஞ்சுதான் கேட்டேன் க்ரோக் . உன்வாயில உண்மையை உரக்க சொன்னதுக்கு நன்றி 👌😄🙏

Many Indian antiquities ended up abroad through colonial-era looting (esp. British rule), temple thefts, and illegal smuggling via black-market networks. Yes, the vast majority of these repatriated pieces were stolen or illicitly exported, not legally acquired. Modi's govt has ramped up diplomatic pressure, international cooperation, and legal action to recover them.

@CMOTamilnadu An Important event for every tamilian to feel proud of our great legacy. Hope Hon CM and TN Govt will also cherish this and share the joyous moment. 🙏🙏🙏 @TVKVijayHQ @actorvijay

Beautiful family welcomes golu 🐘 and molu 🐘♥️😄. May the Nature Bless them in abundance. Humans Stayaway ‼️

Was browsing my phone history and just found this. Truly in tears. Without him at helm of affairs in 2020, we would not be what we are today @narendramodi ji ♥️🙏 @annamalai_k @SuryahSG

Leader TN is waiting for..! @annamalai_k

Ideology driven grassroot politician @SuvenduWB dada vs Popular Actor @actorvijay Anna. Substance vs Social Media Hyper Sensationalism Early to judge, but the youth brigade anna followers in social media getting uber excited on trivial things as his transformative achievements would surely be no good to the leader for establishing credibility in long run. With ministers sworn in, hope some serious work happens and the masses get to speak about that with data than just rhetoric. #TVKVijay‌ #tvk #bjp #Annamalai #Bengal #suvenduadhikaribengalcm

The sweeping political shift in Tamil Nadu where first-time entrants have leapfrogged straight into the upper echelons of governance mirrors a phenomenon we often witness in the corporate world. During sudden mergers, spin-offs, or shifts in loyalty, organizations sometimes fast-track a new generation, completely bypassing the seasoned old guard. In business, history shows that when leaders skip the foundational grind, the organization often loses its core identity. We end up with a leadership style that is highly polished on paper but fundamentally disconnected from field realities unable to deeply inspire the ground cadre or sustain the heavy legacy of the institution. Politics carries even higher stakes. True statesmanship usually requires organic seasoning to navigate the complex, unglamorous pulse of the masses. Relying heavily on social media resonance to bridge that gap naturally invites a healthy dose of suspicion. Are we witnessing a genuine modern transformation, or an impending administrative disaster? Yet, it would be unfair to write them off today. Every legacy had a beginning, and sometimes a clean slate is exactly what a rigid system needs. While the corporate parallels give us reason to worry, the benefit of the doubt says they might just surprise us. The ultimate test for this new leadership will be whether they can quickly pivot from digital popularity to real world execution, ground themselves in the state's rich context, and prove that disruption can actually build, rather than break. #tvk #vijay #Rajinikanth #Annamalai #UdhayanidhiStalin

Here comes one and only @rajinikanth and capture the center stage with one press meet. The Real Superstar Some Stupid Vijay fans were trying to belittle Rajinikanth and bring down his stature as mere broker between DMK ADMK. He is way beyond these routine politics and sees life at different plane. Good, he put things in perspective . In this huge public space every one have special place and be it Vijay or Rajini they surely will know this and share mutual respect 🫡. Fans should be mindful and sensible.

Administrative capability is just not dependent on academic and number of degrees one have alone!!. But surely systemic education and its outcomes makes huge difference in shaping one's ability to think longterm, align to global paradigm , ability to asses risks and plan mitigation and be a thought leader, especially you are in a position handling billions of monies and millions of lives impacting your leadership. The state possesses the intellectual capital to lead, yet its leadership architecture remains stubbornly decoupled from its collective intelligence. Agree?

@cricketmht @JournoAshutosh @grok @grok what is the expected crisis

@JournoAshutosh @grok in such scenario, should we stop taking X premium service then?

Save every penny. Avoid unnecessary spending. Critical time ahead. Perhaps Worst is yet to come.

Great visualisation. It can also help CM use waterways to reach fort. Chennaites will be happy to see sabarmati riverfront in Chennai

@CMOTamilnadu What!! Hon CM dont have a dedicated dining area to eat in privacy and properly..!! That his personal time. By the way the simple ever silver career is to give that middle class feel? Or he is really so. But unlike other CMs he is showing dedication and commitment for responsibility taken. God sake let his dining time be free from media blitz

@PttvNewsX He would have felt the discussions nostalgic and being home 😌
