@baxirahul Believe concretisation preference and lesser attention to greens could be the reason

What’s the single most important reason we don’t see this kind of footpaths all around Mumbai?

@TataCLiQCare What details?

@ash_misra Dear @ash_misra , thank you for engaging with us recently. We would be grateful if you could provide us with some necessary details at your earliest convenience. Warm regards, Team Tata CLiQ.

@TATACLiQLuxury this is happening second time in last month or so. Order placed on @TATACLiQLuxury is being processed by @TataCLiQFashion? Is the delivery backend same for both apps? I am terribly confused

@volklub @TorqueIndia Don’t you think some of these are either at end-of-life or came in as CBU/limited numbers?

@TorqueIndia ADAS, Safety Ratings & 360 cam doesn’t matter if design doesn’t click with mass audience

SYROS 😳

@KamathGurudutt Exceptions are always created for convenience. For me mango and milk together never goes - ends up in upset stomach

In Ayurveda fruits and milk are generally considered incompatible (viruddha ahara). Exceptions: dates and mangoes.

@drifteternal_ @RoadsOfMumbai @mybmc @CMOMaharashtra @AshwiniBhide Glad we have statues, better then illegal hawkers and squatters

Clicked this in Milan this month. A traffic island made for people. Then Prabhadevi. A traffic island for statues no one asked for. @mybmc @CMOMaharashtra @AshwiniBhide

@pareekhjain Am aware of similar incidents in major cities too, but governance and POSH implementations a shade stricter and actions immediate. However, irrespective of city size, any setup that grows large has such risks as the day-to-day monitoring and governance is a challenge

Could a TCS Nashik‑like incident have occurred in large TCS centers in Mumbai, Chennai, Bengaluru, etc.? Do we need to rethink about big IT service providers spreading in too many small centers in different cities with little management oversight? From a corporate management perspective, is it better to manage scaled operations in a few cities so management has visibility and accountability, and these incidents don't occur?

@sidpatankar @VWGroup @volkswagen @volkswagenindia @AckoDrive They left a few things on the table. For what they have, there was no hype required, just a quiet upgrade would have been more effective. Hope they don’t do this to Virtus - either a major uplift or a quiet minor feature updates would be better

🔊 on Here’s the facelifted new VW Taigun. Prices in a few days from now. Finally a pano roof, ventilated front seats. Illuminated logos, LED connected light up front. Same engines as before too though the 1.0 gets the same new 8-speed automatic as the Kushaq. SVP

@Simon_Ingari Has been happening in IT industry in India for a long time now. One gets raise only on job switch, and that is why loyalty doesn’t make sense

2021: No salary increase 2022: No salary increase 2023: No salary increase 2024: No salary increase 2025: No salary increase 2026: Employee: “Kindly accept my resignation.” Boss: “But you’re doing such a great job! Why are you leaving?” Employee: “I’ve received a new job offer with a 65% salary increase, and there’s also a guaranteed annual raise based on performance.” 48 hours later…

Her name is Sanjukta Parashar. She scored rank 85 in UPSC. She could have become an IAS officer. She chose IPS instead. She said she wanted to be on the ground. Not behind a desk. In 2006 she became the first Assamese woman to join the IPS. In 2008 they posted her in Makum. One of the most dangerous regions in northeast India. Bodo militants were killing civilians, burning villages, running arms networks for years before she arrived. Within 15 months she led 16 counter operations in the jungle. She arrested 64 militants. She seized tonnes of illegal weapons and ammunition. She did not lead from a command centre. She walked into the jungle holding an AK47 alongside CRPF jawans. She had a four year old child at home. Her husband is posted elsewhere. She sees him once in two months. She has a PhD in international relations from JNU. She could have had any career she wanted. She chose the hardest one. She is now an Inspector General at the National Investigation Agency. India has one Sanjukta Parashar. It needs a thousand more. Follow for real stories the country does not talk about enough.

@volklub Pricing, lack of infrastructure, real maintenance cost

Will your next car be an EV? If no, why not?

@shamikv @pareekhjain It has the problem that all large organisations have. It did not manage the generational change of employee mindset/behaviour and refused to acknowledge the signs of drift since culture/environment doesn’t change overnight

We thought Air India will become like TCS, instead TCS became like Air India.

@volklub @DealsDhamaka Built a habit early on - always start a journey with full tank (learnt from my grandfather) and go for fill-up, to tank full, when just a shade below quarter mark (kind of routine for me)

@DealsDhamaka Darn! Always start travelling with a full tank I also learned the lesson slightly hard way like you

Worst incident. pure negligence on my part. Drove ~30 km up and down to a hilltop restaurant with just one dot of petrol that gives ~50–60 km, so I thought I’d be fine. The petrol pump nearby was closed (at 8PM) On the way back, the car just gave up. Heavy traffic, bad roads, no nearby pump open and there we were, stranded on a deserted village road with family and friends waiting. Got lucky we had another car and somehow managed fuel after ~30 mins. Could’ve gone much worse as it stopped on a road to nowhere, far from the main road. Lesson learnt the hard way, don’t stretch that last bar, especially in summer. Fuel disappears faster than you think.

@ZanaiBhosle @KamathGurudutt Wishing her a speedy recovery

My grandmother, Asha Bhosle due to extreme exhaustion and suffering a chest infection has been admitted to hospital and we request you to value our privacy. Treatment is ongoing and hopefully everything will be well and we shall update you positively.

@readswithravi Ruskin Bond, Amitav Ghosh are a few of the many

Have you ever read a book by an author that was so good it made you want to read everything else they've written?

@RoadsOfMumbai It’s both - a cheating society and a trust deficient society

Have seen at many places in Mumbai, that there are two housekeeping staff for cleaning the common areas in societies/offices. Person 1- Actually performs the task of cleaning Person 2- Clicks photos of the person cleaning to submit as proof. Is it because we are a trust deficient society?

1980s :: TV Brands In India Which Was Your First TV ?

@virsanghvi Yes. In fact question should be asked “why is there an ‘opposition’ anyway”

Are we now at a stage when a senior MP from one of the largest opposition parties can’t even get an article published?

@Dr_RMJoshi I check my BP and blood sugar at same time every so often on weekends - Fasting Sugar & BP after morning chores & fasting of course and PP & BP 2.5-3.0 hours after lunch same day

What is the right time for a high BP patient to measure his BP? Answer After getting up in the morning before taking tea, coffee, medicines, and breakfast. At what time do you check your BP?

@KamathGurudutt Yes, have a fairly long list of serials amongst the favourites. Big Bang Theory and Friends are on it and so are some from yester-years - MASH, Three’s Company, Cheers, to name a few

Thanks to my daughter we used to watch the Big Bang Theory. We loved it. Other series we loved thanks to daughter: FRIENDS, Mentalist.
