@crispeconomiX Obviously stated by someone who has no familial history with the intellectual history of Kolkata. Sour grapes as is the case with most Delhi Bongs.

It is worth noticing that our giants were all in the past. A society in decline does not produce greats. A society in decline definitely produces a class that gets teary eyed about a hoary past, pays lip service and tributes.

Queue in front of Satyajit Ray's house in Bishop Lefroy Road to pay tribute to him on his birth anniversary.

Sharing an episode of my life with you @arvjpr maybe now you’d believe me more as to why I don’t agree with your idea about conducting historical walks/tours in this city of swine.
English
Mentioning such a thing now @HarounRashid2 would not be safe.

@MrDemocratic_ What do you know about what’s going on in Rajasthan?

Only heritage structure in Mullick Ghat is the wrought iron pavilion (partially made in Glasgow) which has been encroached and is covered with filth + tin/asbestos shanties.
It was commissioned by the (in)famous Suvarna Banik (Bong Bania) family patriarch Rammohan Mullick.
Sandipan Mitra@SMitra_
The place this guy is trying to rebuild using AI is Mullick Ghat, which is Asia’s largest flower market. So basically if they come to power they will snatch away the livelihood of numerous unorganised sector workers and also destroy heritage structures in the name of development.

@raggedtag Their love of disgusting forms of Maggi as adults makes me think that they’ve not completely grown into being adults and tasted & formed a refined palette. Such sad lives.

@payalmehta100 @HindusthanHotel It’s the worst hotel in Kolkata. I went in for a coffee once & the rate was overrated & it was nothing but Nescafé in a simple white porcelain cup.

@GhoshSamyak Coincidence indeed. Within my family we’re three paternal cousins born on the 26th, 27th & 28th of June though with a gap of a number of years between us.

My nephew was born on my birthday which is also his father’s birthday because his father is my twin brother. I still can’t believe this happened 😂🤦🏽♂️🙂

This is what’s on offer on this side of a certain fence @HarounRashid2.

Mahindra, as usual you don’t respond. I’ve also heard that you’re planning to take me to court for a defamation case that’s absolutely fine, you’re welcome. But this time, you need to answer this. What could be a bigger scam than selling cars that have already been in accidents, repairing them, and then passing them off as brand new to customers? How can a company operate at such a level? Your dealerships seem completely careless and fearless. Imagine the heartbreak of a customer who buys a “new” car, only to later discover it was already accidental. I will be sharing the owner’s details soon and I expect immediate action: deliver a genuinely new car and take strict action against the showroom and dealer involved. And for customers always make sure you are physically present during the PDI (Pre-Delivery Inspection). Never skip it. Unfortunately, many people still don’t even know what PDI is, and that’s where the problem begins! 🙏🏻

@HarounRashid2 Looks like it would have a lot of features in it. Pity such cars would never be allowed to be imported in my unique country.

Have owned my first ever Chinese car, a Jaecoo J7, for just over a month now and absolutely loving it.

Many international vloggers are here at the Beijing Auto Show, showcasing the highlights, cutting-edge tech and standout strengths of Chinese vehicles to the whole world. Join these three content creators and discover how impressive Chinese cars truly are! It’s a pity they are not yet available in many overseas markets, but it’s still amazing to explore and admire them up close. video credit to: youtube user Nobby On Cars/youtube user carsales/American car reviewer Ethan Robertson(also co-founder of wheelsboy)

@Benarasiyaa Can someone launch a RTI to figure out which company got the “theta” for providing all of us with this indigenous technology?

@nixxin @JM_Scindia This happened twice yesterday & once today so far. Imagine mobiles going off in hospitals, while passing through security at airports, even while driving and making a turn on hilly roads. Millions are made anxious as they don’t understand wht they did wrong like “digital arrest”.
English
Everyone get this? How do you randomly disturb millions (billions?) of users in one go with an alarming msg? Zero thought given towards how to test.
DoT is building quite a track record: Sanchar Saathi, SIM binding...this.
I expect @JM_Scindia will mess up Net Neutrality too.

@sagarikaghose If you’re posting such content then I’m sure you’d like to attend this exhibition too.

So beautifully spoken. On Satyajit Ray’s birth anniversary, posting the charming words of one of Bengal’s great actors Karuna Banerjee on working with Satyajit Ray and the filming of ‘Pather Panchali.’

@parrysingh I used to run around with one of them on my head as a child, gave a good Napoleonic look to my war efforts.

Here’s another vestige of the English Raj - the tea cozy. So ubiquitous in Indian households that I used to think it’s a single Punjabi word - ‘tikozi’!
Parminder Singh@parrysingh
I’ve always had a soft spot for chik blinds. Originally from North India, they were widely used in colonial bungalows by the British. As the Raj expanded into places like Singapore, they carried them over. Often adorning Singapore’s iconic colonial ‘black and white’ houses, at least in my mind, they still carry the charm of a gentler time.

Something tells me @iqtibaas88 that you might enjoy checkout this exhibition especially because it’s not too far from your workplace 😉

Weren’t you talking something about someone being amoral @JayantBhandari5?

Gandhi Sagar, MP is being electrocuted and its absolute madness. Im looking at the footage from Gandhi Sagar Dam and its gut wrenching. This isnt just a fishing issue. its a massacre. People are literally dropping live wires into the water with UPS batteries just to score a bulk catch. The result? A graveyard. We are seeing hundreds of fish and even a crocodile, a protected species floating dead because they happened to be in the wrong place when the current hit. This electro-fishing is a lazy, brutal, and illegal shortcut that destroys the entire aquatic balance in seconds. Where is the administrative accountability? We talk about conservation, but then let smugglers turn our dams into electric death traps. Stop the shock. Before theres nothing left to save. #GandhiSagar #WildlifeCrime #MadhyaPradesh #Ecocide #JusticeForWildlife #Mandsaur #ForestDepartment #SaveIndianDogs @PMOIndia @LiveLawIndia @minforestmp @moefcc @byadavbjp @CMandsaur @mandsaur_sp @dilthi_gujarati timesofindia.indiatimes.com/city/bhopal/el…

Sobha Singh, father of the writer Khushwant Singh, built most of New Delhi, including the North and South Blocks and Connaught Place. In fact, Block A of Connaught Place was named "Sujan Singh Block" after his father.
