1 minor crrection on my part regarding the Vimag labs' post. Claiming Vimag Labs is India's 1st magnet-free motor company overlooks the deep-tech groundwork laid down yrs prior.
Both Vimag Labs (founded in 2025 by Manish Kumar Seth & Krishna Murthy Rahul) & Chara Technologies (founded around 2019) are racing toward the absolute holy grail of the modern green transition: building high-efficiency, magnet-free electric motors.
Chara Technologies was founded by veteran engineer Bhaktha Keshavachar (who previously co-founded Ezetap, a fintech/mPOS company acquired by Razorpay), along with Ravi Prasad Sharma &dMahalingam Koushik.
Instead of permanent magnets, Chara uses Synchronous Reluctance (SynRM) & Switched Reluctance (SRM) motor topologies. In these motors, the magnetic field is created entirely by the clever design of the steel rotor & complex electrical pulses sent through the copper windings, bypassing permanent magnets entirely.
The reason why traditional industries did not use SynRM motors in consumer vehicles is that they are notoriously difficult to control, loud & prone to torque ripples. Chara solved this with a heavy IP layer: they designed custom cloud-controlled power electronics & ML algos that dynamically stabilize the motor's performance in real time.
Chara raised a $6M Series A funding round led by Arkam Ventures, with aggressive backing from prominent deep-tech VCs like Kalaari Capital, Exfinity Venture Partners & IIMA Ventures.
With their Series A capital, they built a state-of-the-art automated factory and testing facility in BLR, scaling their annual production capacity from 20K units to 100K units per yr. They are targeting 2 wheelers, 3 wheelers & commercial HVAC applications.
They both (& other players for sure) will ultimately provide India with complete geopolitical autonomy over its domestic electric vehicle supply chains.

Let me explain the Kashmir conflict using a direct American parallel:
Imagine if, after the Civil War, the US permanently split into 2 nations: the progressive, secular Union in the North (India), and a regressive, hostile society of slave owners in the South (Pakistan). (1/8)
Carl Wheless@carlwheless
Most people don't understand what the deal is with Kashmir and India. Explain it to us in the West, especially Americans.

@TheLaikYobaz Nobody believes Trump...He is a habitual liar.....

Trump: Meloni, birlikte fotoğraf çekilmemiz için yalvardı, onun adına kötü hissettim. Onunla konuştuğuma şükrediyordur.
Meloni: Trump'ın sözlerini duyunca kanım dondu. İtalya asla yalvarmaz.
Kim doğru söylüyor?

Every single one of the points are a real problem.
But your understanding is broken, let me explain. :)
Norway has 55 lakh people. Total. That’s smaller than the population of Pune. Their entire country has fewer citizens than India’s 25 smallest cities individually. Norway also has 1.2 trillion dollars in sovereign wealth from oil reserves, accumulated over 50 years.
They have $250,000 per citizen sitting in the fund. India has roughly $3,400 per citizen in forex reserves.
Norway is what you get when a small population sits on top of one of the largest per-capita oil discoveries in human history.
The right comparison is other low-income, high-population, post-colonial democracies. Brazil. Indonesia. Nigeria. Bangladesh. Pakistan. Egypt. Mexico. South Africa. Vietnam. Philippines.
Compare on these and India isn’t doing badly. It’s doing better than most.
UPI is the world’s largest real-time payments system.
Aadhaar is the world’s largest biometric identity system.
We absorbed the global pandemic, the Ukraine war, the West Asia conflict, Trump’s tariffs, the Iran war, and a rupee fall without going into recession.
Most of those countries above did. Pakistan went to the IMF 24 times. Sri Lanka collapsed. Bangladesh is unstable. Egypt needed emergency Gulf bailouts. Argentina has 60% inflation. We stayed standing.
India is the only country in human history to add a trillion dollars of GDP every 18 months. We added our first trillion in 2007. Our second in 2017. Our third in 2024. Our fourth coming in 2026.
The problems you mentioned exist in every large, low-income, high-density country on earth.
Mexico City’s pollution is worse than Delhi’s.
Manila’s traffic is worse than Mumbai’s.
Lagos has worse road quality than Delhi.
Jakarta has worse air than Delhi.
Cairo has worse adulteration.
Karachi has more corruption.
Hanoi has higher pollution.
None of these countries are run by Modi. They’re all dealing with the same impossible math.
Industrialising a country of 145 crore people during a global energy transition, with limited natural resources, while keeping democracy intact, is the single hardest governance challenge in human history.
> China did it without democracy.
> South Korea did it with a population one-tenth our size.
> Japan did it with no major religious or linguistic diversity.
> Singapore did it with 50 lakh people total.
Nobody has done it at India’s scale, with our diversity, in democratic conditions.
So when someone asks “why hasn’t Modi built one city like Norway,” the answer is because building one Norway requires not having 144.5 crore other Indians to look after.
Helle@Oyemisty
Go tell your Prime Minister Mr. Modi to build just one city like Norway, where people get these facilities: - Corruption-free - Pollution-free - Food free from adulteration - Best quality roads and flyovers - Best quality education with no paper leaks - Proper treatment in hospitals without medical mafia loot - At least basic facilities for common people It’s okay if he does not hold press conferences, because if he does, the public will definitely ask all these questions. That is why Mr. Modi runs away and does not want to answer. Hello Lyng, Since Mr. Modi became the Prime Minister of India, you people tell me - which city in India is pollution-free and corruption-free, where adulterated food is not sold? Has Mr. Modi created any such city after coming to power? I am not talking about cities or villages that were already better before, like many people mentioned South India and Jammu & Kashmir - those places are naturally better and pollution-free. Now talk about Delhi, the capital of India. India has a population of 1.3 billion, a 4 trillion-dollar economy, and was once considered one of the world’s most developed civilizations. In the capital city Delhi: - Are people getting clean air? - Are people getting food without adulteration? - Are the roads good? - Has corruption ended? - Are people getting proper treatment in hospitals? If all these things are not happening, then what has Prime Minister Modi been doing for the last 12 years? He has not even made his own capital an example for the world. Delhi’s pollution is famous around the world. Many people say that population does not allow India to progress. In fact, if there is a right leadership, then by using population as a weapon, it can become the number one country in the world, which will be the safest country in the world. Where corruption, pollution, medical mafia, top exam Exam paper leak can never happen.

@dhruv_rathee If this German wants Indian PM to be humiliated ...than I think it's time Indian should humiliate his family and relatives who are residing in india. Tit for Tat.
English
Modi deserves to be humiliated everywhere he goes.
He has not given a single press conference in 12 years since he became the Prime Minister. He fails to fulfill the basic transparency and accountability requirements of being a leader.
I would like to encourage foreign journalists from other European countries to ask him questions wherever they see him, just like @HelleLyngSvends did. Embarrass him so much that he is forced to show some accountability in front of people. You will be doing great service for India’s progress.

If I want to retire in India and want this, where should I end up?
1. Coastal city because pollution will be low
2. No danger of language warriors - I don’t intend to get into anyone’s way
3. Decent infra
4. At least 2 good hospital within 20-30kms
5. Airport within 2-3hr drive; railways station a major plus
I can think of these:
1. Vizag
2. North Goa (Ponda, Mapusa)
3. Bhubaneswar (not coastal but you get the drift)
4. Udupi
5. Mangalore
What else?

A PROTEST IS PROTESTED.
WHEN POLITICS BLOCKS ROADS, PUBLIC PATIENCE SNAPS.
A Worli commuter, stuck in a traffic jam for over an hour, storms into BJP-led Mahayuti’s Mahila Jan Akrosh rally furious over missing her child’s pickup.
The protest, targeting opposition over Women’s Reservation, brought roads to a standstill. She confronts organisers, calls out Minister Girish Mahajan, demands rallies be moved off public roads.

@KobeissiLetter Erosion of confidence in America's political and economical leadership and systems....
English
The US Dollar continues to lose market share:
The US Dollar now represents ~46% of global FX and gold reserves, the lowest in at least 26 years.
This percentage has declined -15 points since 2017.
Excluding gold, the US Dollar makes up 57% of global reserve currencies, the lowest since 1994, according to IMF data.
This comes as central banks have aggressively accumulated gold and diversified into other currencies.
The last time the US Dollar fell below 50% of global reserves was in 1990-1991, a period marked by elevated inflation, a recession, and a crisis of confidence in the US economy.
What is happening here?

This morning, I asked President Trump if he’s okay with the Iranians charging a toll for all ships that go through the Strait of Hormuz, he told me there may be a Joint US-Iran venture to charge tolls:
“We’re thinking of doing it as a joint venture. It’s a way of securing it — also securing it from lots of other people.”
“It’s a beautiful thing”

BREAKING: President Trump tells the Financial Times he wants to “take the oil in Iran” and could seize the export hub of Kharg Island.
“To be honest with you, my favorite thing is to take the oil in Iran but some stupid people back in the US say: ‘why are you doing that?’ But they’re stupid people,” Trump said.
