Today, the journey spoke for itself

It was indeed an amazing experience to be a part of the cyclothon. A proud moment to see my son Rian @rian_the_lion as the Brand Ambassador for sustainability and fitness through this #Cyclothon. He shared his journey, his experiences and his passion, inspiring the young generation to pursue cycling as a way of life. Kudos to NCS, New Delhi @IN_NCSDelhi for this great initiative.

🚴♂️ Pedal for the Planet: NCSD Cyclothon 2026 🌍
NCSD conducted its maiden #Cyclothon2026 on April 4—a 7 km cycling odyssey under the banner “Pedal for the Planet”, uniting participants in a perfect blend of physical wellness and environmental consciousness.
70 young riders from Classes VI–VIII cycled 🚲 through Nehru Park, celebrating fitness, unity, and sustainability.
Rian Kumar (VII-E), recorded as the youngest ever to cover the longest & fastest distance of 108 km non-stop, inspired all participants. Through his achievements, he motivated and guided his peers to embrace eco-friendly choices and sustainable living 💚
Kudos to all participants for pedaling towards a greener future! 🌱

This is a stupid and unforgivable thing to do. We may have political differences between parties but it is completely wrong to disrupt an international event and disgrace India.
The Congress party should apologise at once

This is absolutely pathetic. The timing of this ruckus seems like an attempt to tarnish the image of Bharat on world stage. The event is being attended by the most prominent leaders and innovators and is being covered globally. To do such a thing is utterly shameful. @INCIndia should hang its head in shame.

National Shame
At a time when India is hosting a prestigious global AI Summit, showcasing its innovation and leadership in technology, the Congress party chose disruption over dignity.
Under the leadership of Rahul Gandhi, Congress workers went topless and created a ruckus at the venue, an act clearly designed to embarrass India on the world stage.
When the nation is striving to position itself as a global technology powerhouse, such conduct only serves the interests of those who wish to see India falter. Political opposition is a democratic right, but sabotaging India’s global image is not.
India deserves better.

They aimed for our airspace, but ended up on our dinner plates. 🍽️
For 93 years, every hostile aim has only served to sweeten our victory meal
Happy IAF Day!

Despite long-standing evidence of Pakistan’s links to groups like LeT & JeM, the country now chairs the UNSC Taliban Sanctions Committee and serves as vice-chair of the Counter-Terrorism Committee—just weeks after the Pahalgam attack.
@CdrGauri notes that the move exposes deep flaws in the UN’s vetting process and raises questions over its commitment to fighting global terror….

It is an established fact that Pakistan has served as a safe haven for many designated terrorist organisations. What is more worrying is that the world seems to be turning a blind eye to it. My editorial today @the_hindu questions Pakistan’s role at UN in chairing the Taliban Sanctions Committee and co-chairing the Counter-Terrorism Committee amid ongoing terror links. India also gave a befitting reply to the speech by Pakistan PM at UNGA and branded Pakistan as “Terroristan”.
