Totally in agreement with @PMOIndia on curtailing travel, fuel use etc. If it’s a global crisis, and beyond our control, self discipline will be the best foot forward. However, I also have a suggestion for @narendramodi ji. 🙏 Sir, collectively we have close to 5000 MLAs and MPs in India. Whenever they move, official vehicles aside, they are accompanied by hordes of followers and supporters. Never seen even an MLA with less than 5-8 vehicle convoy. And sometimes these cavalcades run into hundreds of vehicles. And political leaders, across parties, travel daily to multiple locations. The convoys never shorten nor stop. You can add 2-3 independent vehicle convoys to immediate families of entire number too, just for calculations. Collectively, we are talking about hundreds and thousands of vehicles daily, running for no apparent reason other than accompanying the leader and ‘to be seen’, and clocking millions of miles each day. Sir, if you can direct these leaders, to cut down these illogical miles, it not only would help the present initiative, but also set a case for better future where twenty cars with horns blaring on roads don’t push commoners like us aside because the leader has to travel by supersonic speed to fashionably arrive late at his / her next function. You’ve been a common citizen like us. You didn’t inherit the chair and power. I’m sure you understand the sheer insult and disgust we feel when bulky bouncers and cops hanging out from pilot and other vehicles just shove other vehicles around. So you will be resolving this crassness and unruly behaviour too. Practical problems are surface repressions of deep rooted cultural issues. Like your Swach Bharat initiative. No amount of infrastructure can keep India clean if we don’t stop throwing garbage on roads. I think, in the same manner, car pooling, minimising travel, not running ACs in cars in parking because the VIP cannot ensure 20 seconds of heat while the car cools when AC is switched on, traveling by public transport - all are more of cultural issue than practical ones. And I’m very sure, a step taken by leaders will go a long way in making your initiative successful, sir. Jai Hind - An Indian citizen.

Dear Prime Minister @narendramodi , After your advise to stop using cars, Today I decided to walk to my office and sharing some realities with you. Citizens are not addicted to cars. Most people would happily avoid taking their cars out if cities simply offered three things properly; safe footpaths, protected cycling tracks, and dependable Metro connectivity. Give us these three basics and I can confidently say private car usage will reduce massively on its own. But today, the reality is different. Cities like Pune, where public transport demand is exploding, still struggle with incomplete and delayed infrastructure, while Metro projects are inaugurated in places where the urgency and density are comparatively lower like Bhopal or Nagpur for political advantage. Footpaths are encroached upon or broken by your own goons or electric dept. Cycling tracks exist mostly for presentations, events, and photo opportunities instead of daily commuting. Then citizens are lectured about reducing car usage. Sir, roads in India are still unsafe for pedestrians and cyclists. Asking people to give up cars without first guaranteeing safety is unfair. A middle class citizen choosing a car today is not choosing luxury; he is choosing survival and, predictability. If you truly want us to adopt public transport and sustainable mobility, then please first make walking and cycling safe, and then focus on public transport reliable enough that citizens choose it willingly rather than being morally pressured into it.

We are Against Freebies.✊

@sudhirmehtapune Looking at constant #PuneMumbaiExpressway traffic issues, I suggest @AshwiniVaishnaw to start few #Motorail/#CarTrain services between #Pune & #Mumbai. That will be best, on time, traffic free, ecofriendly way to commute with own personal vehicles. @nitin_gadkari @narendramodi

Every weekend without fail the expressway between #Mumbai & #Pune is jammed due to leisure travelers. Given limitations of road in the short term, we need interventions to mitigate traffic . More train & bus services, restrict heavy goods movement or move it by trains, plus efficient traffic management. Comprehensive review needed at appropriate levels. Also create alternative destinations to Lonavala which is much beyond peak capacity .

@aparanjape If even half of these PMPL buses had been registered in October & started plying on the roads, #Pune would've experienced major relief from traffic, pollution & civic-sense issues. Politicians & authorities desperately need to rethink their approach @PMCPune @CMOMaharashtra

New vehicle registrations in Oct'25: Pune (PMC + PCMC): 74,000 Thane: 36,000 Mumbai: 28,000 One more data point highlighting the URGENT need for rapid progress on #Pune region's transport infra projects: Metro - fast completion of existing lines, approvals for new proposed lines Bus - PMPML needs more buses (more routes, higher frequency, better feeder network with metro) Roads - improve existing traffic flows, better traffic enforcement, road widening, removing encroachments, elevated roads, tunnels. Speed up external and internal ringroad work. Long pending highways/expressways development around Pune. Rail - 4 track widening of Pune - Lonavala cc @navalMH @mohol_murlidhar @Dev_Fadnavis @narendramodi

@SumerWrites @RahulGandhi Very aptly said. Totally dirty & selfish mindset of all the politicians in #India. Hardly few raised voice against #HND boarding, #Pandharpur Jain Temple, #Ahilyanagar Jain land. Everyone wants to do is appeasement politics of Divide-Distribute-Destroy! #saveHND #CancelHNDsale

@RahulGandhi What double standards you have when Jain Boardings land was grabbed you didn't stand by them but just in another case the word dalit came out you instantly jumped in this matter

महाराष्ट्र में ₹1800 करोड़ की सरकारी ज़मीन, जो दलितों के लिए आरक्षित थी, सिर्फ़ ₹300 करोड़ में मंत्री जी के बेटे की कंपनी को बेच दी गई। ऊपर से स्टाम्प ड्यूटी भी हटा दी गई - मतलब एक तो लूट, और उसपर कानूनी मुहर में भी छूट! ये है ‘ज़मीन चोरी’, उस सरकार की, जो खुद ‘वोट चोरी’ से बनी है। उन्हें पता है, चाहे जितना भी लूटें, वोट चोरी कर फिर सत्ता में लौट आएंगे। न लोकतंत्र की परवाह, न जनता की, न दलितों के अधिकार की। मोदी जी, आपकी चुप्पी बहुत कुछ कहती है - क्या आप इसीलिए खामोश हैं क्योंकि आपकी सरकार उन्हीं लुटेरों पर टिकी है जो दलितों और वंचितों का हक़ हड़पते हैं?

BREAKING ✅️ ●Charity Commissioner CANCELS HND Jain Hostel Land Sale — LEGAL Victory for the jain Community ●The Charity Commissioner of Maharashtra has revoked the permission granted for sale of HND Jain Hostel land to Gokhale Landmarks LLP. ●This is not withdrawal. This is a LEGAL CANCELLATION under Section 36(2) • The sanction order dated 04-04-2025 under Section 36 is revoked • Sale Deed & Power of Attorney dated 08-10-2025 must be canceled • Trust must refund the entire sale consideration (minus TDS) to Gokhale Landmarks • Trust must update PTR records after cancellation ●This is now a binding legal order This is a precedent-setting order under the Bombay Public Trusts Act, 1950. Section 36(2) is exercised only when there is: • Lack of transparency • Community interest at risk • Need to protect donor intent & trust purpose ●The Commissioner clearly found grounds to intervene. This is a moral victory, too. A message to all trusts that operate in the name of Dharma: Community assets are not private real estate. they are sacred responsibility. ●Today is a moment to acknowledge: • Alumni who raised their voice • Students who stood strong • Community leaders who supported truth • Media who covered the issue • The judiciary process that kept the matter alive, especially @advpyog ●This judgment will inspire every community fighting to protect its heritage. History will remember HND was not sold. HND was saved. #SaveHNDHostel #Jainismjewells #LegalVictory #JainYouthUnited #Pune

@makmd @talk2anuradha @nitin_gadkari Add to this - • Timeline of maintenance work done after construction. • Amount of Challans collected on that road. Iam sure amount challans collected will be huge as compare to maintenance. #NHAI #RoadSafety #civicsense @MORTHIndia

To add to this: 1. That website as mentioned by @talk2anuradha should have a grievance box - allow people to post their road-specific complaints directly to an ombudsman. 2. Put QR codes on major highways for people to easily report potholes/bad road condition, let the QR code show all the details of the money spent, toll collected, etc. 3. Mandatory related party disclosure. If the contractor has a relative/business partner who's holding a public office / politically affiliated, let people see that clearly. Similar to the related party disclosure mandatory for companies. 4. Blacklist the defaulters, those who repeatedly create poor quality infrastructure & neglect the basic quality standards. Let people know who was responsible for the potholes they suffer!

Dear @nitin_gadkari We need a public website that shows: > Which contractor built road > Which babu approved it > Total cost & ministers involved > Firm responsible for maintenance Contractors are becoming billionaires while people die on roads Bring real accountability now!

HOSTEL nurtures young minds, TEMPLE purifies hearts & NATURE blesses every breath. In #Pune, #HNDhostel #JainTemple & #Nature -are at stake of illegal demolition despite being a PublicTrust! @PMOIndia @rashtrapatibhvn @MOMAIndia @PTI_News @EnvironmentPib @CJGavai help #saveHND 🙏🏻
