@AnanthAyyasamy People saved you from a demotion of your stature - from a sincere seva warrior- (who everyone loves) - to a wannabe politician (who receives love and hate in equal measure). Nature has unique ways to signal direction!

Four years ago, I sat down with my 12-year-old daughter in the US and told her I was walking away from a successful tech career and real estate business to return to India for public service and politics. At that age, she didn’t realize “public life” would slowly take her Appa away from her for months… and years. But I came with conviction. So for the last 4 years, we gave everything we had — for example -In villages like Subramaniapuram and Vellanaikottai, we built bus shelters, restored a 100-acre pond, removed seemai karuvelam, strengthened bunds, planted thousands of palm saplings, supported students’ education, organized medical camps and career workshops, built community sheds, encouraged youth and sports activities, and contributed to annadanams. It cost several ten lakhs of hard-earned money - just for this village alone. But more than money, it cost time… family moments… and precious years watching my daughter grow up from far away. Then elections came. And the same village chose a candidate who had barely visited them in five years. In the end, one week of election-time money defeated four years of sincere service. Yesterday, my daughter quietly asked me over video call: “Appa… can you now tell me what exactly politics is?” For the first time in my life, I did not have an answer for my chellaponnu. @svembu

@VoltasBeko Your customer service 9818994444 is asking us to follow up with local service center 9538566420. He said he is on leave and gave another number 7848999363. This number isn’t reachable. Let me know how you plan to serve your customers. 2/2

@VoltasBeko Your customer service is pathetic to say the least. Our equipment is down since last 3 weeks. Your Technician visited last on 5th December and said he needs to order a part. Since then no follow up from his side. 1/2

@VoltasBeko Hey Voltas Beko. Your customer service in Bangalore south is pathetic and that is an understatement. It has now been more than 3 weeks since our dishwasher is down. After first visit on 5th Dec 2025 technician ordered a part and is now not getting back 1/n.

India can’t afford to slow its EV transition. No brakes. No detours. India has surpassed 6.5 million EVs, sold over 2 million in 2024 alone, and spent over ₹ 40,000 crore on building the EV ecosystem. But this momentum alone won’t get us to net zero.   From CAFÉ norms to battery circularity, we need clear, long-term signals for manufacturers, financiers, and startups. We must now shift decisively from incentives to mandates, from pilots to scale, and from intent to irreversible policy action. The Battery Aadhaar is a game-changer, but only if backed by regulatory teeth and ecosystem readiness.   I write with @PawanMulukutla in today’s @livemint

Friends, need your help. @antarikshB, a senior from IIT B has launched an incredible project of organizing all Sanskrit literature in one place, in a user-friendly manner. The service is free, not-for-profit, created purely out of passion. Media coverage will go a long way in ensuring the service reaches the right people. Could you help by RT-ing and perhaps tag the right people? (link below)

@Offtejasvisurya Hello, we seek your kind intervention for the nuisance due to loud noise and lack of any civic sense from this Pub called Gatsby on Bannerghatta Road. They blare loud music till late beyond midnight. Constant pain and curse. Please help 🙏🏼

Dear @BBMP_Cares @BBMPCOMM this is the Bannerghatta Road stretch at Arekere. How long before you finish this road or waiting for an accident to happen? @Offtejasvisurya

@IndiaPostOffice @JM_Scindia Dear India Post officials, it is quite disappointing that Post Offices do not accept UPI payments. They still insist on cash payments. Bottleneck in ease of doing business. Please address this on priority!

The single most *powerful* habit for personal growth: Daily journaling. Over the past 5 years, I've journaled every single morning. And along the way I've tested: • Over 1,000 questions • Every app, pen, & notebook But I always return to a pen, paper, and these 5 prompts:

Places on Earth that don't look real - thread 🧵 1. Namibia, where the desert meets the ocean

I used to be stressed out of my mind… Now, I only work 4 hours a day and make $730,000/month. 20 sentences that helped me 10x my productivity:

@tweetKishorec Majestic!! Curious what is that strange flying creature caught before the big fellow enters🤔

Gems of Sanatan We have so many crypto Hindus singing eulogies of Muslim rapists, looters, killers made famous in the history books as The Great Moghuls. Today we will see what Bharat was before these rapists, killers, looters invaded Bharat and tried their best for 350 years to destroy sanatan Dharma and its relics. Mughals appropriated our culture our temples and even names of our cities and towns. A country who normalises cultural appropriation will mentaly remain enslaved to it

@GMSRailway Train number 20653 Bengaluru Belgaum express. H1 bogie. No water in toilets , no cleaning in bogies. Please attend on priority. @RailwaySeva

Veeramarana 💐 Pranjal the only son of former MD of MRPL Shri Venkatesh and Anuradha of Mangalore has laid down the life for the country in J&K. Pranjal had got admission to BE at reputed RV Engineering College but since the 3rd std he wanted to join the army, he quit engineering studies to join the army. Let us give one big salute and wish Sadgati for the departed atma. My thoughts and prayers with the parents who have lost their only son.

This is absolutely incredible. Hats off 🔥🔥🤛👍❤️❤️ Sheetal Devi: Worlds first armless female archer!
