Pune's garbage collection system is facing a massive crisis, and the reason behind it is absolutely shocking. Out of over 10,000 workers assigned to keep our city clean, only about 40% are actually doing their jobs on the ground. A detailed internal report by the solid waste management department reveals that around 450 to 500 sanitation workers are allegedly deployed at the private residences of political leaders, including MLAs, corporators, and former office-bearers. Instead of cleaning the streets, these municipal employees are reportedly being used for personal duties like housekeeping and driving, all while drawing their full salaries from the taxpayer-funded PMC budget. What makes it worse is that this isn't a new issue. The investigation shows that some workers have been completely absent from their original cleaning postings for 5 to 10 years. Even though a detailed report on this mess was submitted to senior civic officials last year, political pressure and frequent transfers of senior officers have successfully delayed any concrete action. With the city's cleanliness visibly suffering, PMC Commissioner Naval Kishore Ram has now stepped in and ordered a strict verification process, promising that anyone found guilty of exploiting the system will face consequences. #Punetimesmirror #PuneNews #PMC #WasteManagement #CivicIssues

OLD MEN HAVING GIN AND TONIC AT DELHI GYMKHANA CLUB IS A NATIONAL SECURITY THREAT. BUT A RS 20000 Crore BCCI IS A “ CHARITABLE ORGANIZATION”. Hypocrisy reigns in our country. The same yardsticks need to apply to all. This government is cherry picking who to target, and who to turn a blind eye too. It’s brutal power grab. #NoTelePrompter #DelhiGymkhanaClub #BCCI
A thread on why Eid ul Adha might be India's most underrated rural economic event. 🧵 1/ Every year, 3 crore Muslims perform Qurbani. Average goat costs ₹15,000. That's ₹45,000 crore — in 3 days — flowing from cities and towns directly into India's villages. No middleman app. No corporate cut. Just farmer to family. Keep reading. The numbers get wilder. 👇
Location: Mira Road, Mumbai During Eid al-Adha, Hindutva activists attempted to enter Poonam Cluster Society with pigs in protest against goats being kept inside the society for sacrifice. The situation later turned into a violent clash.
In Stockholm, Sweden, a quiet green solution is keeping young trees alive through intense dry spells. They are called bevattningspåsar, or tree watering bags. Simple green bags wrapped around tree trunks that release water slowly into the soil over several hours. City workers in Stockholm use them to reduce evaporation and runoff, helping urban trees survive heat stress and grow stronger in dense city spaces. It is simple, almost unglamorous. But it works. And it raises a powerful question for India, where extreme heat is becoming more frequent every year. Could a similar slow-drip watering system help protect young trees in our cities too, especially during harsh summers?

Mumbai lost 21,000 trees in 6 years. 193 acres of SGNP in Thane now face potential destruction. 45,000 mangroves to be cleared for the Versova–Bhayandar DP Road. Up to 65% of city’s OG mangroves cover already gone. Hope Mumbai is learning from Sumatra’s case study on how ecological destruction invites natural catastrophe.

She's just 16 and she's already above what most people call “impossible.” Nisha Sasikumar from Tamil Nadu just became the youngest woman to summit Mount Everest via the South Side—where oxygen is thin, storms don’t forgive, and every step is a negotiation with your limits. And the wild part? This isn’t the peak of her plan. Everest is just one checkpoint in a bigger high-altitude mission—multiple continental summits, extreme endurance, and a season built around doing what most climbers spread across years.
