Visited the decrepit Shaniwar Wada again today and wished I hadn’t. Impossible to imagine this was the Center of governance for much of India for 100+ years. It’s in extremely sorry state; unkempt, dirty, disorganized. #MarathaEmpire #Peshwas #Marathas #Pune #ShaniwarWada

WOAH 🚨 Mahvash Siddiqui, US Consulate Officer in India, says there is an entire industry in India for fraudulent H-1B visas to get into America
She says there are entire areas where all the stores do nothing but create fake documents for fraudulent visas
“When I served in India, what I saw in terms of industrialized fraud, there is a huge back industry where you have storefronts after storefronts focused on basically creating fraudulent documents fake transcripts, fake bank statements, fake degree certificates to use the visa loophole to cut the line and actually emigrate to the U.S”

Today is the birth anniversary of the artiste extraordinaire and musicologist Pandit Kumar Gandharva, born Shivaputra Siddharamayya Komkalimath in a Kannada family on 8 April 1924. Many, including yours truly, consider him the vocalist of the generation. #kumarGandharva

@JakeCan72 lol... this marriage between groypers / wignats and Islamists is height of irony... and yet sorta makes sense since they are both driven by Antisemitism and Hinduphobia.

A U.S. consular officer in India adjudicated 51,000 H-1B visa applications.
She denied 70 to 90 percent of those applications.
Storefront after storefront selling fake degrees, fake transcripts, fake bank statements. Not edge cases. An industry.
The pressure from politicians, she says — if the person isn’t a terrorist, issue the visa.
She spent twenty years in the U.S. Foreign Service. Her name is Mahvash Siddiqui. She’s Indian-American.
The best and brightest narrative didn’t survive contact with what she saw on the ground.

@RajaSubramani22 It's on the west side of the hill close to Panchavati, Pashan. I entered from the main gate at Panchavati, took right and it pretty close to the entrance.

4 miles hike / run through Vetal Tekdi early morning. Just like peacocks 🦚 there are a lot of parrots 🦜 on and around these hills. Video 👇 of a parrot feasting on “Flame of the Forest” पळस flowers. It doesn’t realize it; it’s doing God’s work!

What's Ricky Ponting role for Punjab Kings PBKS? He can't teach them his primary expertise cheating, claiming bump catches, sledging, racism. Neither is he teaching Punjab Kings how to spit in your palms. WTF is PBKS paying him the big bucks for? #PBKS #PunjabKings #IPL #IPL2026

Whichever way you slice it, this is a huge diplomatic win for Pakistan. Islamabad comes across as a responsible actor with enough trust in key world capitals to help avert a potential global catastrophe.

@aparanjape Good riddance. Was a horrible choice for CEO. AI was improving before he took over but deteriorated since he took over the reins. Hope they pick a competent Indian to run AI...
