True, the Seven Wonders are celebrated globally, but our architectural marvels reflect a legacy of unparalleled craftsmanship and cultural depth. From the intricate carvings of Khajuraho to the engineering brilliance of the Brihadeeswarar Temple, our heritage stands tall as a testament to timeless innovation and artistry. It’s time we celebrate these wonders with the pride they deserve! 🇮🇳🇮🇳🇮🇳🇮🇳🇮🇳

They say the Taj Mahal is the greatest wonder of India. But 1200 years ago someone caved an entire mountain for Mahadev 🔱

Our Govt’s Swachhata-MoHUA App already contains 1 of the largest untapped collections of real-world Indian urban imagery anywhere. Every time a citizen uploads a geo-tagged photo of a pothole/garbage dump/unclean street/toilet & every time a municipal officer uploads the after photo showing resolution, the app accumulates timestamped visual pairs capturing Indian urban decay versus repair. With 5M+ downloads on Google Play, coverage across 4900+ towns & cities, & millions of resolved complaints (historical figures include nearly 1.79 cr complaints & high resolution rates like 91% in past reports), the total photos likely run into tens of millions cumulatively. Now, here is the opportunity (& I am confused why govt does not leverage it yet): The Govt does not need to build a new platform. It can convert the existing Swachhata-MoHUA photo corpus into a high value, India-specific AI-training dataset, anonymized, labeled (decay vs. repair), & structured for training computer-vision models on: - pothole & garbage detection - automated resolution verification - predictive hotspot mapping - street-level urban quality assessment This would be far more grounded & locally relevant than most globally scraped image datasets, yet the dataset remains largely unpromoted & under-leveraged beyond complaint redressal (no public evidence of large-scale AI training use currently). Additionally, API-ify the app (with strong privacy controls) so developers, startups, researchers & AI companies can access the data. Add a simple gamification layer: award verifiable cleanliness points for uploads & resolutions. Allow users to trade those points for real economic incentives: UPI cashback, Metro ride credits, partner discounts (fuel, food delivery, etc.). This turns a grievance tool into a nationwide civic + economic engine: citizens get rewarded, data quality improves through more participation, cities get cleaner faster, & India gains a powerful localized visual AI asset all w/o starting from scratch.

things are about to get interesting from here on

When I die, don't look for me in the sunsets.. Look behind you. I'll be chasing you up the stairs after you turn off all the lights.

@loveena_joshi06 🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣

These days you will see 13 yr old girls posting stuff like. "I want to forget everything and move on" Forget what? The multiplication table????😬

Obligatory joke for this time of the year... 😉

Logon se pyar karo, Aur cheezon ko istamal karo, Iska ulta karoge....... Toh zindagi mein, Kuch seedha nahi hoga.

@loveena_joshi06 Wah wah! Satyabachan ji

@not_dying +1

Am I the only one who gets impressed quickly and annoyed even faster?

Married people having more affairs than unmarried ones.

@NAN_DINI_ Absolutely. Perfectly put.

Only a few years ago two Kashmiri Pandits glossed over the gore and trauma, recasting Kashmir as little more than a tale of estranged friends and urged viewers to ‘move on’ for the ‘greater good!’ Karma, in its own inexorable way, intervened. On behalf of those who were killed, those who continue to live in exile, and the enduring shadow of Islamist terror that India confronts even today, Karma ensured that it would be a Kashmiri Pandit who would finally tell the story as it was - as it needed to be told. For the sake of truth, and for posterity.

i love how dhurandhar has caused a generational meltdown among some people and it’s only been a day

💥Because it is a huge risk to our gulf partners to keep their savings in the US dollar. In the post crude oil world when they need to spend, these dollar savings will be no use.

The road to hypochondria is paved with good intentions (and tons of data on your vitals)

@sanjeevsanyal In order to digitalise everything including what’s going on inside this complex machine….this is simply inevitable.
