While Europe was under ice, someone in Ratnagiri carved a 14-metre map of India. It's an elephant. Head west to the Konkan, tail east. Inside it: a tiger in the east, a langur in the north, a boar in Madhya Pradesh, a pangolin in the south. Each animal where it actually lives. Seven mountains. The Mahabharata also names seven. It was carved 10,000 years before the Mahabharata. Now the part that should end the argument. The map's width-to-height ratio is 1.167. Modern India is 1.04. Doesn't match. Because they weren't mapping modern India. Reverse-solve 1.167 against the coastline of 12,000 BCE — when the sea was 120m lower and the Sunda Shelf was dry land — and the eastern edge lands at ~100.9°E. The eastern shore of the Malay Peninsula. The exact limit of the world you could walk to from India at the time. A decorative outline doesn't do that. A map does. The oldest known map is supposed to be Çatalhöyük, ~6,200 BCE. This predates it by 6,000 years. It's on an open plateau. People play cricket near these carvings. The monsoon is erasing it.

From the breathtaking heights of Purva Waterfall and Chachai Waterfall to the serene paths of Gopal Baag, Rewa looks its most beautiful when the rains arrive. This monsoon, let the heart of Madhya Pradesh captivate your soul.

Here's something you probably didn't learn in school. It's estimated that around 2 to 5 MILLION Europeans were captured as slaves by the Ottomans. White women were captured and taken into harems and r*ped. Yet you never hear anything about this horrific slave trade. Why?

International media won’t show you this, but the quick response from Kullu administration, local rescuers, IAF and PGI doctors helped save Deadpool & Wolverine cinematographer George Richmond after a serious paragliding accident in Himachal Pradesh. Richmond suffered multiple fractures after crashing in a remote area near Kullu. He was rescued, airlifted by the IAF and given timely treatment at PGI Chandigarh.

I think this should be the tax system for rich people. Mukesh Ambani: 70% Gautam Adani: 70% Savitri Jindal: 65% Shiv Nadar: 65% Dilip Shanghvi: 65% Cyrus Poonawalla: 65% Kumar Mangalam Birla: 60% Lakshmi Mittal: 60% Radhakishan Damani: 55% Sunil Bharti Mittal: 55% Azim Premji: 50% Nandan Nilekani: 50% Harsh Mariwala: 50% Kiran Mazumdar-Shaw: 50% The richer people are, the more tax they should pay because they have a much greater ability to contribute without affecting their quality of life. They benefit significantly from public infrastructure, legal systems, educated workers, and economic opportunities that help create and protect their wealth.

The Modi government @narendramodi has repeatedly failed to protect the lives of Indians who are working as sailors and operating in international waters. This is the very first duty of the Indian government. It is sad and distressing that the prime minister has time for celebrations but not for condemning the US military for killing Indians.

His mother will be proud ❤️❤️

Thank you, President Trump, for your warm wishes. I look forward to working with you to further advance the India-US Comprehensive Global Strategic Partnership, for the benefit of both our nations and the world. @POTUS @realDonaldTrump

🚨Bangkok gets more tourists in one month than the whole of India gets in one year. Thailand is much cheaper to visit than India, which is ironic since Thailand's per capita income is higher than India's: Shashi Tharoor
