This is the state of Pune's arterial road with 30 min rains. And our leaders talk of 5000 Cr River Front Devp, London Eye, Bharat Mandapam etc. Do they know a bit of urban planning? Are they really aware of the common man's needs? DO THEY REALLY CARE FOR THE CITY? @suchetadalal

Ordered a pair of sandals @WestsideStores. Got a message that it was delivered by @BlueDart_ BUT there was no delivery. Followed up with @WestsideStores customer care-emails etc. No proper on response!

@gemsofbabus_ because that's the only weapon they have when they are found guilty of dereliction of duty

Since an FIR has been filed against me, I want to ask the Health Minister a few questions. JP Nadda ji, why is FSSAI going after those who are raising questions instead of those accused of wrongdoing? In a Democracy, does an ordinary citizen not have the right to question alleged irregularities in public institutions? We exposed alleged corruption and irregularities in FSSAI’s recruitment process. Instead of investigating the matter, FIRs are being used against those speaking in the public interest. Is this accountability or an attempt to intimidate and silence dissent?

@anandmahindra Its great, but suspect its a political appointment for convenience

Whether it is navigating the complexity of the Mumbai Metro Rail Corporation or delivering against impossible timelines in one of the world’s most demanding urban environments, Ashwini Bhide is accustomed to being a game-changer. Which is why making history as Mumbai’s first woman BMC Commissioner is just another milestone for her. And if her past is any indication, this milestone won’t define her. What she builds next will. Best wishes, @AshwiniBhide

@malpani Cos he has to emulate his political boss

Why does Adani need a camera crew while praying?

@mishra_abhi All Pillars have democracy have collapsed long ago- especially judiciary. Jungle raj is better

This is a civil dispute over my ancestral land in Patna, that was usurped by a criminal who was later gunned down, that has been pending in district court for 17 years. For the first time, my father could not attend a hearing due to medical reasons. Despite this, the court imposed a cost of Rs 2,000. At the next hearing on 26 February, he submitted medical documents explaining his absence. The judge gave a date of 30 March to consider whether the cost should be waived or not. When my parents appeared again, after waiting for hours in difficult conditions as one can imagine, the judge stated in a matter of seconds that he had not had time to review the medical documents and simply gave another date. Notably, this is the bench of a judge who joined in 2018, part of a younger cohort expected to be more responsive and efficient, which makes the conduct harder to justify. This reflects a deeper problem. A judge takes more than a month for a minor procedural issue, yet does not review basic medical evidence and postpones the matter again. There appears to be no accountability for such delays. If any other professional behaved this way, it would be unacceptable. Yet in the judiciary, litigants are expected to endure such repeated whimsical decisions.

@malpani The objective is this Govt is loot away by any means !

And other clever way for the government to loot us

@kirti_sd On one side the common man and on the other Govt & all agencies

Mumbai is getting hotter.. almost unbearable during daytime while thousands of healthy trees are being cut on the pretext of infrastructure development Shame on the government, the courts, bmc and the companies who are awarded contracts of such projects.. SHAME ON ALL OF YOU

@talk2anuradha No free meals of any kind for either politicians or bureaucrats

Nitin Gadkari ji says "A new AI-driven toll system will capture photos of number plates & deduct toll amount directly from bank accounts". So why can’t we use same technology to capture photos of potholes & deduct salaries of govt employees? Accountability can't be one sided!

@TVMohandasPai @siddaramaiah @CMofKarnataka Is there a separate box for taxpayers ? We need that reservation now ...

This is a total abuse of power, undemocratic and brings shame to Kannadigas that their MLA’s are doing this. @siddaramaiah @CMofKarnataka

@abhishek_tri Its the bambaiya people ! But those very same people donning the hats of bureaucrats/politicians are rascals bent on destroying the city

Bombay makes no sense. Spent a week and what a paradox. You can spend ₹2,000 on a perfect meal and 2 hours stuck moving 5 km. Strangers will go out of their way to help you… while the system around them barely works. I came from Bandra to Navi Mumbai International Airport in 92 minutes and somehow still left liking the city more. This shouldn’t happen. What is it about Bombay that makes people forgive everything?

@IndiaNewGen Disincentive to pay tax!

An income on which 31.2% income tax is paid take 5 years to reach the breakeven. Post tax 100₹ becomes 69.8₹ take 5 years to reach back to 100 with 9% interest. If you spend 50% of 69.8 which is 35₹, it takes approx 13 years with 9% interest rate to reach 100₹. Karo invest.

@thebetterindia Hyderabad is way ahead of a lot of cities in planning & execution. The citizens truly care of what nextGen will inherit

While most cities struggle with waste, Hyderabad flipped the script.🚀 From powering shops to feeding 600 people daily, Bowenpally market is turning garbage into real impact—electricity, biogas, and fertilizer. ♻️ And that’s not all—plastic recycling and solar cycling tracks are redefining sustainability here. Same waste. Smarter thinking. Would you want your city to do this too?

@ggganeshh It means you have squeeze3d every drop of water/ blood / sweat & tears from us !! And we get nothing in return

Sickening...

@RoshanKrRaii Because its backed by China ...

@malpani They teach because they don't have a job~no reality only book knowledge

The reason most college graduates are unemployed and unemployable is because most college professors themselves would not be able to get a job in real life because they lack the skills needed. Do you agree?

@anandmahindra @Nagaland_India North East ppl are disciplined polite & courteous by far. you see them in hospitality etc-

The quality of urban life is ultimately shaped by the collective participation of its community. No amount of physical infrastructure can substitute for thst… (Video courtesy @Nagaland_India )

@ARanganathan72 @priyankac19 Its called the emperor's new clothes!

“The Supreme Court banning Prof Michel Danino and others for their NCERT chapter on judicial corruption, is nothing short of judicial dictatorship.” Thank you, @priyankac19, for being the voice of a billion Indians. You have said what the govt and its law minister should have.

@SauravDassss Me thinks his Lordship protesteth too much

The manner in which Chief Justice Surya Kant’s bench is proceeding in the #NCERT matter is terribly disquieting. If the Chief Justice truly wishes, in his own words, to “catch the bull by the horn,” then there is a far worthier place to begin: with accountability within the institution. Let the Chief Justice tell the country what happened to those 8630 COMPLAINTS AGAINST SITTING JUDGES received by the Chief Justice of India’s Office over the last 10 years! The Chief Justice’s bench is not only coming down heavily on the textbook chapter, but also now overseeing the proposal for an expert panel to vet future content touching the judiciary! Even more troubling is the manner in which the Chief Justice made severe, contemptuous remarks against academics who may actually possess a deeper engagement with history, pedagogy and democratic theory than some judges who sit in judgment over them, all WITHOUT affording them any opportunity to respond, explain, or defend their work! As I wrote in my column for @frontline_india, the team associated with drafting the chapter may have exercised its policy discretion in concluding that the problem of judicial corruption was serious enough to warrant prominence in the chapter. Can the court then condemn this in this manner, for a policy choice they were entitled to make? Where is the procedural fairness, at the very least? To publicly censure scholars, taint their reputations, and then ensure, in practical effect, that they are kept away from future government work is disproportionate and is only a form of judicial punishment without trial. (Column here: frontline.thehindu.com/columns/suprem…) The question is not whether school textbooks should be accurate, balanced or responsibly written. Of course they should! The question is whether a constitutional court can intervene in so SWEEPING and HIGH-HANDED a manner that it effectively begins to supervise pedagogy, blacklist academics by judicial signal, and expand its own oversight from one chapter in one book to future textbooks of higher classes that may mention the judiciary at all. That is not adjudication but an institutional overreach DRESSED UP as constitutional guardianship! Since when did the Court become a curriculum authority? Since when did retired members of the judicial fraternity become the natural custodians of how young citizens are to be taught about courts, corruption, criticism and institutional failure? One would have thought that, in a democracy, the judiciary earns public trust by the force of its conduct and reasoning. As for the Chief Justice’s reported remarks on social-media criticism, that critics must know how to “deal” with him, the language is simply ASTONISHING, though keeping in line with Chief Justice’s similar past utterances. The language is wholly unbecoming of a constitutional court, let alone of the highest judge in the country. A judge may be stern, may be offended, and may even warn against reckless imputations. But the language of personal settling, of teaching dissidents how to “deal” with him, belongs to street power, not constitutional power. In one of my other @frontline_india columns, I wrote about judicial temperament. Such language actually betrays a temper that is DANGEROUSLY at odds with the restraint, distance, and moral seriousness that the office of a judge demands. (Column here: frontline.thehindu.com/columns/judici…) The 8630 complaints, let the Chief Justice of India place in the public domain the details of how those complaints were handled, screened, buried, or acted upon. Let him show the standards by which allegations of corruption, impropriety, conflict of interest, and sexual misconduct are treated when they concern judges themselves. My RTIs have failed because opacity has been elevated into doctrine at the Supreme Court of India. But what the RTIs have achieved is to unveil this doctrine before the country. Can it be in institutional interest for the Chief Justice to continue maintaining opacity around the complaints which is precisely what fuels public suspicion? It is far too easy to threaten contempt and legal troubles against citizens, academics, lawyers, or social-media users who speak about corruption in the judiciary. But Chief Justice Kant must know that it is far harder to build an ethic of public confidence through transparency, self-scrutiny and demonstrable fairness. That is the real test of integrity. Not muscular language from the bench. And not such coercive sanitisation of criticism. So can the judiciary submit itself to the standards of accountability that it so routinely demands from everyone else? Can Chief Justice Kant ensure this during his term?
