Is this for real? New OCI forms for foreign spouses requires certified birth certificates of their great grand parents as well...

Looking forward to this one...

There is such beauty in Indian artisanal works and there is added magic when it's connected with history. Love this instalation at B'lore's T2. Its inspired by the architecture and motifs of Hampi.

Thankfully @Olacabs @ola_supports have responded positively. I do hope action is taken. It is so disturbing for those of us who use these car rides to catch up on work

@ola_supports As someone who has had only Ola and used it for years in Mumbai and Delhi I do hope you act on this feedback.

@MiniMenon This is not how we want your experience with Ola to be and want to make sure this is taken care of. Please share the CRN details and your contact details via DM to help us dive deeper into the issue.

What's with drivers @Olacabs @ola_supports in Bengaluru They are perpetually on phone calls through the ride. This is specific to this city. Not in Mumbai, Delhi or anywhere else. Is Uber the same? Are there no rules around driving and talking on the phone here?

@ola_supports Thanks for the reply. Am not able to DM you You can get me on 9820178129. Would really be good if you can have some training for your drivers. It's just bad manners for a driver to be constantly talking on the phone for the entire trip. I face this every time I take an Ola!

Great to hear this! Have often wondered why no one has written about him... Fascinating man and what a body of work he has left behind.

Tomorrow marks the death anniversary of Rani Lakshmibai. Everytime I come across her image I think of the little boy she had strapped to her back as she fought. Here is an old LHI classic on what happened to him... peepultree.world/livehistoryind…

@MiniMenon @airindia @TataCompanies Is he back ?

@Amitabh76Singh Thank you 😊

#historymatters but what a niche shift from #FinancialWorld leading channel #anchor to a #HistoryExplorer #selfemployed woman entrepreneur. Great move!!!

How nice to see the quirky old Maharaja make a come back. I had done a class project on him when I was 8!!! @airindia @TataCompanies

Sad to hear of the passing of Historian Dr. M G S Narayanan. Thankful to have had the chance to spend time with him over the years, learning so much. His book on The Perumals of Kerala remains the most authoritative study of this formative phase of Kerala's history. RIP

4/ This Women’s Day, let’s move beyond just celebrating success stories. We must acknowledge, support, and uplift the millions of women who are shaping India’s craft economy. It’s time to count them in. #WomenWeavingChange #CraftingFutures #InternationalWomensDay

3/ Yet, despite their contributions, most women artisans remain invisible in India’s workforce. The government counts 7 million crafters in the country. The real number? 200 million. A lot of them are women.

2/ As their embroidery work grew, so did their confidence. 💪🏽 Some used their earnings to educate their children. Others to support their families through tough times. More women joined in. Young girls learned the skill, ensuring financial security for generations.

1/ In a quiet corner of Anjar, I sat with Rabari women as they stitched fine embroidery onto cushions. 🧵✨ What was once a craft meant only for a bride’s trousseau is now an economic force, empowering families and shaping futures.

6/ It’s not just our name; it’s our inspiration to celebrate India’s craft, culture, and stories. 🌿 #WhyPeepulTree #TreeOfLife #CraftingChange #CulturalEconomy #AncientIndia

5/ For us, the Peepul Tree represents endurance, creativity, and community—values that guide our work at Peepul Tree World every day.

1/ 🌿 Ever wondered why we chose the name Peepul Tree? It’s more than just a tree—it’s a 7,000-year-old symbol of India’s heritage.
