@FI_InvestIndia Issue-“MANY” women weaponise the “heartfelt” share & either share it with others, or use it against us, when we are at our weakest!! Both of which is least expected and definitely not desired. Then, judgement & “advise”!! Exactly why guys are able to share among guys! Go figure!

If you are a man, you must watch this ❤️❤️❤️ If you are a woman, you must share this 😀😀 Beautiful message for all the lovely men out there... Speak out... #FI

@Tejasvi_Surya Beginning of Hindi imperialism in Namma Bengaluru.

This invitation from history of Jayanagara’s inauguration in 1948 is a reminder of how Bengaluru went from Jayanagar’s planned blueprint to today’s maddening chaos. The invitation reveals the seriousness with which our leaders once approached city-building. It wasn’t merely an inauguration. It was a declaration - that urban development was an act of nation-building. Jayanagar was conceived by the Bangalore City Improvement Trust Board (CITB) - precursor to today’s BDA - guided by the spirit of Sir M. Visvesvaraya and the Mysore Maharajas’ foresight. It was one of Asia’s earliest and most thoughtfully planned urban layouts. It was built on principles that cities like Tokyo, New York and London followed: • Grid-based planning • Dedicated civic zones and markets • Wide tree-lined roads and footpaths • Abundant public parks and playgrounds Even the act of inviting the Governor-General to inaugurate a neighbourhood showed how civic growth was seen as a matter of pride, not paperwork. Urban planning was driven by engineers, architects, and visionaries - not contractors and consultants. Every road had a logic. Every park had a purpose. Every design decision carried dignity. Leaders like the Maharajas and Visvesvaraya believed that cities reflected a civilisation’s discipline. The Mysore administration treated urban growth as a long-term institution-building exercise. They built universities, dams, townships, and layouts that still function after seven decades. Their belief was simple: a city must be engineered, not improvised. Today, unfortunately, we live amid the ruins of that foresight. Where there were walkable boulevards, we have potholes and parking chaos. Where there were civic squares, we have encroachments and flyovers. Where there was once planning, we now have “projects.” Our political leadership - cutting across parties - has confused construction with development and visibility with vision. Institutions like the BDA, once envisioned as planning agencies, have been reduced to contractors’ departments. The result is what we see daily: • Roads without design logic • Footpaths that begin nowhere and end abruptly • Drainage systems built after the rain • Metro alignments retrofitted into chaos It’s not just inefficiency; it’s the absence of imagination. Lack of commitment and sincerity. The 1948 Jayanagar inauguration invitation is is a mirror showing us how much dignity our forebears attached to civic order, and how little we have preserved of it. That single event symbolised urban governance as a national calling. Today, our cities are governed by short-termism and populism - with no professional planning cadre, no respect for design, and no accountability for outcomes. Just sheer opportunism. We have lost the plot of urbanisation. And in losing that, we are losing the very quality of urban life. If we are to rebuild Bengaluru - or any Indian city - we must go back to the ethos that created Jayanagar: • Plan before you build. • Design for people, not for vehicles. •Let professionals lead, not politicians meddle. • Treat civic dignity and urban quality of life as non-negotiable. The story of Jayanagar should inspire a new generation of urban reformers to ask: “What kind of city do we want to leave behind - a monument to neglect and greed, or a model of vision and inspiration?” Urbanisation is India’s destiny. But without leadership like the Mysuru Maharajas or Sir Visvesvaraya’s, it may also become our greatest failure. @narendramodi @yaduveerwadiyar #urbanindia #urbanisation

@MEAIndia sir on the portal that shows a dashboard for MEA, the spelling of “average” is incorrect. Please check and get it corrected.

@kunalkamra88 Interestingly I didn’t think you would have specially after you have proved repeatedly try at you didn’t have much to offer at all to start with!! Anyway good on you for making it this far through vindictive speeches. That you aren’t much different from those that you oppose!

I still have no regrets & no apology to offer…

@outskillio I have been trying to contact you to get my certificate for the weekend program of mastermind. Please tell me where and how I can access it. Thanks.

@Olacabs - I recently discovered we cannot cancel a ride when it has commenced. It is a very disingenuous concept. You may charge me a small fee and or waive it as no one cancels a ride unless they really want to. I sat in a cab and then discovered it had no ac!

@RailMinIndia @RailwaySeva @RailwayNorthern

@RailTel - I am at the first class waiting room@Delhi Cantonment station waiting for my train. While “railtel.in” website mentions this station has “Full scale Superlative RailWire Wi-Fi Experience” I am unable get it! Please look into it and rectify.

@RoshanKrRaii Since when did Dhirendra Shastri start teaching in schools!!?? Misplaced anger??

Take a bow MK Stalin 👏🏻 If all states implement this, the careers of Dhongis like Dhirendra Shastri will end forever. 🔥

@GitaShlokas_ Yes, maybe even a little bit more too.

If you have to contribute ₹100 per family to re-establish Gurukul in India, will you contribute? Please give your opinion in comment.

@vijaythottathil Bhai mere, will you please check the location of Poonch on the map, and the. Understand what he said? Then, when you are satisfied, let us talk about the “historic loss” you talk about. Please!

Amit Shah admits that in India’s history first we had loss in Poonj due to shelling by Pak! HM admits how incompetent is this Govt!

@Gabbar0099 So Sir, have you heard about “Mandyam Iyengars” from Melkote, a small settlement near Mysore, Tipu’s capital? Or probably how he and his father usurped the Mysore throne? If not, request you to kindly read those chapters of history, please 🙏

@RavinderKapur2 So you mean to say Sri. J.Nehru had nobody in his “hyper” educated cabinet, hence he chose Sri. A.B. Vajpayee to represent India in the UNGA conference, way back in the 1950’s!!?? Come on. When someone is doing something out of spirit, and also hopefully the right thing, support!

@EtihadHelp need to change my first name.

Interesting article. India has always wanted & strived towards peaceful bilateral negotiations to resolve any issue, be it Kashmir or border disputes with other countries. 70plus years of proof should be sufficient. This stance is not likely to change. bbc.com/news/articles/…

@puram_politics Mate!! Really!! Cute solution you thought off!

Why does India not ask Kashmiris a simple question: do you want stay in the union? If they say yes, it gives the country moral authority to act. If they say no, well, wish them luck and they ain’t our problem.
