Can we remove all toll booths that are crowded and cause massive traffic jams and unparalleled wastage of fuel until the Middle East crisis settles down?? @narendramodi @nitin_gadkari @nsitharaman

After making fire crackers on Diwali as sole reason for pollution, now policy makers are labeling vehicles as the sole reason for pollution. If India wants to remain this blindsided & illogical, why not to declare curfew and ask people to stay indoors @gupta_rekha @OfficeOfNG.

Stuck for an hour plus in Indigo at 7:05 am departure because 1st officer & many crew members did not show up @IndiGo6E India can’t afford to have monopoly of any airlines. Indigo prices have gone thru the roof and services have gone thru the drain @DGCAIndia @MpRammohannaidu

Wishing @PMOIndia @narendramodi 75th birthday. A small piece I wrote in this occasion bwdisrupt.com/article/pm-mod…

Such a pleasure meeting, interacting and dinning with honorable Chief Minister of Haryana Shri Nayab Singh Saini @NayabSainiBJP. He has mature and progressive vision for the state of Haryana and deep commitment to PM Modi’s vision of Viksit Bharat 20247. He clearly sees how startups, tech, AI, semiconductor, deeptech etc play pivotal role in economic progress. It was heartening to meet and hear honorable minister of Commerce and Industry for Haryana Shri Rao Narbir Singh @RaoNarbir. Thanks to Shri Amit Kumar Aggarwal, Yash Garg, Sunil Kimar Sharma, Ajay Kumar, Vikas Kumar Arora, other senior officials of Haryana government and the KPMG team for aweosme event and coordination.

India’s GDP was up a whooping 7.8% in April to June 2025 quarter Y/Y led by services up 9.3%, manufacturing up 7.7% and agriculture up 3.7% - driven by Digital India, PLI Scheme, PM GatiShakti, Agri reforms & Startup India initiatives—India’s growth story remains strong. A robust and vibrant economy means more opportunities for startups & innovation. Rooting for India and Viksit Bharat 2047 !! @FinMinIndia @startupindia

Two days of intense conversations on startups, policy reforms, national building, AI, product, technology, advantage Andhra and many other important topics with none other than honorable Chief Minister of Andhra Pradesh Shri N Chandrababu Naidu @ncbn and other important leaders honorable India’s cabinet minister for civil aviation Shri Ram Mohan Naidu Kinjarapu @RamMNK honorable eduction minister of Andhra Pradesh Shri Lokesh Nara @naralokesh and honorable Member of Parliament from Vizag Shri Sribharat Mathukumilli @sribharatm some of the brightest secretaries from the IAS cadre you can ever find. It was amazing to see and hear the clarity of vision in Shri Chanderbabu Naidu, who truly pioneered way back in 1990s how a statesman must run a state or country like a CEO with long term vision, policy reforms, economics progress, FDIs, job creation, infrastructure and national building. All four leaders had no sense of entitlement or ego but pure vision and hunger for the state and the country backed by purpose, passion, energy, world-class eduction, progressive thinking and intellect. These four leaders are leading the pack of new age politicians and leaders in terms of how the purpose driven public service, leadership, governance and nation building should be, in my view. Loved hanging out with dozens of fellow founders who are building great companies and super passionate about what they do. Also had an opportunity to meet many folks from Vizag community. This amazing sojourn was end to end conceptulaized, curated and managed by Inc42 Media @Inc42 and Vaibhav Vardhan Pooja Sareen Utkarsh Agarwal and their capable team as part of Griffin Club.

Need I say more

Thank you to @narendramodi , @AmitShahOffice, @rajnathsingh and our brave soldiers for serving justice. Pakistan is world factory of terrorism, failed state, cultural & morally & monetarily bankrupt, minorities are oppressed and ex PMs are raped or murdered

Always such a pleasure meeting and listening Prime Minister @narendramodi. The way honorable PM has started articulating Viksit Bharat vision is so strong, persuasive and inspiring. Congratulations Barun Das and @TV9Bharatvarsh on 3rd year of What India Thinks Today and thanks for having us.

Early this week I had a pleasure of attending Global Investor Summit, Bhopal 2025. It was fascinating to hear PM Modi about his vision for the Viksit Bharat by 2047. It was so Inspiring the way PM Modi articulated opportunities and invited corporates, entrepreneurs and investors to go long on India and MP. CM of Madhya Pradesh Dr Mohan Yadav highlighted strategic advantages of MP and offered all help and support to attract investments in his state. I had a pleasure to meet Gautam Adani briefly, he was very humble and accessible with his courteous & polite smile and soft demeanor. My friend Rikant Pittie and I ran into each other and that made life easier for both to navigate this well attended summit. One highlight that made my day was to spend roughly 2 hours along with Rikant with Nadir Godrej sir and Swati Salgaocar and chatting about the summit to Indian economy to startups to so many interesting topics. Just 4 weeks back I had an opportunity to meet Nadir sir in Davos first time and his poetic style made me his fan that time. I heard some of his poetic style during his recorded speech and also during our small group chats. In all, I am happy and encouraged by how MP and many of our states are becoming super competitive and committed to business and economic progress. I am third row behind Modi Ji on extrem right, while he unraveled 18 new policies for MP. @narendramodi @PMOIndia @DrMohanYadav51 @PiyushGoyal @PiyushGoyalOffc @rikantpitti @gautam_adani

Happy Maha Shivratri to my fellow Indians!!

Today I had a pleasure and honor to meet and interact with CM Yogi. We spoke about ideas about UP becoming a Trillion dollar economy and where all Droom can contribute in and collaborate with the state. CM Yogi gave multiple and convincing examples of how UP has huge upside potential. He also mentioned that Mahakumbh now has crossed over 600 million total visitors. As I stated before during my visit to Mahakhumb early this week, the scale at which Mahakumbh is happening is beyond human imagination. Thanks to Vaibhav Vardhan, Pooja Sareen and Utkarsh Agarwal at Inc42 Media for creating Griffin Retreat, brining 100 Unicorn and Soonicorn founders and by any stretch hosting India’s most curated retreat for the founders. While I feel very fortune to be friends with so many smart founders of Indian ecosystem, the two days retreat added a minimum of 20 more founders in my close friends list. The event was full of fun, experiences and immense amount of learnings. @myogiadityanath @Inc42
