शकुनि के छल ने वंश उजाड़ दिया, मंथरा की कुटिलता ने राम को वनवास भेज दिया. इसलिए कभी किसी कपटी की सलाह पर मत चलना.

People who die of thirst in the desert are sometimes found carrying full bottles of water. Many of us live the same way. We save love for later, postpone dreams, delay joy, and wait for the “right time.” Why don’t you live for now.

Congratulations @narendramodi ji on completing 12 years in office as PM . If one drives on Indian Highways , if one sees electric cars and buses everywhere , modern airports , a seat on table In global key meet , a visit to Ayodhya , Kashi Vishwanath temple and travel across J&k , one will pause with gratitude and admiration for your work and feel gifted for you as leader amongst unsettle neighbourhood and with some great powers !

It’s natural to make error of judgement but it’s certainly authentic leadership to admit . Gates says Epstein association was a mistake that ended in 2014 and urges the world to focus on his work in global health and education. Testifying before the House Oversight Committee, Bill Gates said he ended all contact with Jeffrey Epstein in 2014, stating that no charitable vehicle was created, no funds were raised, and no promised philanthropic efforts materialised. Acknowledging that he "should never have met Epstein," Gates expressed deep regret and reiterated that his life's work remains centred on improving global health, expanding educational opportunities, and helping save lives around the world. Reflecting on the lessons learned about reputation, trust, and accountability, Bill Gates acknowledged that his interactions with Jeffrey Epstein stemmed from efforts to mobilise resources for global health and education philanthropy but ultimately represented a serious lapse in judgment. He expressed regret and said that his mission remains focused on building trusted partnerships to support health, education, and opportunities around the world. He stated that he deeply regrets that decision and emphasised that it was not justified, while reaffirming his longstanding commitment to global good.

Everyday a new reel of our great tourists appear! Here’s a Marwari group supposedly having fun abroad. Fun is ok, but this is nuisance!

Words cannot express how immensely proud I am to see my dear friend, the legendary Ustad Amjad Ali Khan, @AAKSarod, and his incredibly talented sons, Amaan and Ayaan, honoured at the Grammys. It would take a symphony! Having been blessed with Amjadbhai’s friendship for more than forty years, I have had the privilege of watching his lifelong devotion to the sarod, his deep reverence for music, and his unmatched grace both on and off the stage. This prestigious recognition is a testament to his enduring legacy and his family's brilliant contribution to global music. And it’s fitting that the honour is for an album that embodies the finest values of Indian secularism, which the family embodies in its own life. Respected Khan Sahib, dear Amjadbhai, congratulations on this spectacular and well-deserved milestone! Sending you, Amaan, and Ayaan my warmest love, admiration, and respect. Here is to celebrating many beautiful memories and many more milestones to come! indiawest.com/sarod-maestro-…

With so many reels of our tourists behaving badly abroad, here’s a lovely exception. A Bengali song bringing together people at Van Gogh Museum. Culture is spread best when it creates joy, not disruption.

I shed no tears for the TMC’s self-destruction. My only hope is that the political culture of the vandals doesn’t start contaminating the W.Bengal BJP. We in the BJP have to be always wary of false friends who are today cosying up to us because they need to wash away their past sins. The detox of Bengal cannot be left incomplete.

India is expected to contribute 17.2% of global GDP growth in 2026- more than the US and second only to China. Demographics, entrepreneurship, digital infrastructure and rising aspirations are turning India into one of the world’s most important growth engines. 🇮🇳📈 (IMF data)

Taxes raise revenue. Investments create wealth. The challenge for our policymakers is finding the right balance between the two. India’s growth story deserves capital markets that are among the world’s most competitive.

I had a deeply unpleasant experience today while interviewing the star cast of the film Maa-Behen, featuring Madhuri Dixit and Tripti Dimri. The media interactions were being managed by MSL India @MSLGROUP_India, the PR agency handling Netflix, the platform on which the film is releasing. Everything was going smoothly until I asked the actors about Ranveer Singh being banned by FWICE for walking out of Don 3. As the actors began responding and I followed up on their answers, a PR representative in the room suddenly screamed at the top of her voice, “I’m sorry, we will not be taking any more questions on this.” Her tone was so loud and aggressive that not only I, but the entire star cast was visibly taken aback. I objected, but she repeated herself. I reluctantly moved on. A short while later, when I asked @dharnaaaaa331 about the hurtful incident where paparazzi asked her to step aside during promotions while focusing only on Madhuri Dixit and Tripti Dimri, the same PR lady screamed again, even louder this time, and demanded that I immediately wrap up the interview. I requested five more minutes, but she forced me to stop shortly after. These film promotion interviews are recorded exclusively on the cameras of the production/PR team. News channels are not permitted to use their own setups. The clear purpose of this arrangement is to maintain tight control over the content. The PR team can delete any portion they find inconvenient and then selectively share the edited footage with broadcasters. I dare the PR agency and the production house to release the full, unedited footage so everyone can hear the rude and completely unacceptable manner in which the interview was shut down on legitimate, ongoing issues in Bollywood. While news channels must also introspect on why we continue to accept such restrictive arrangements, the bigger concern is the increasing high-handedness of PR agencies. Since when did they assume the role of gatekeepers who can bully, scream at, and rudely silence journalists? This particular agency takes pride in its association with the French group @PublicisGroupe One would expect far more refined and professional conduct from a company linked to such a global name. What surprised me the most was how the entire star cast — including the iconic Madhuri Dixit — appeared completely controlled by this obnoxious PR machinery. Dear @netflix @NetflixIndia @NetflixFR - it is worth reflecting on the kind of people you entrust with promoting your films. @MadhuriDixit @tripti_dimri23 #Netflix #MaaBehen #MadhuriDixit #TriptiDimri

An Eminent personality will join BJP today 11 AM at BJP Central office, New Delhi.

Sharp Edge: I don’t like Raj era clubs and I will never become a member of one. So whatever happens to the Delhi Gym makes no difference to my life. And yes it may be unfair to charge only a nominal rent to a club that mostly caters to retired army officers & civil servants But if you are talking about unfairness why stop at veterans? Why not throw ministers out of their huge houses? Why not take away their motorcades? Ground their private planes? Today’s Lutyens elite comprises politicians who have run Lutyens Delhi for a decade and live in those huge Lutyens bungalows.Why pamper the new Lutyens elite and persecute soldiers who have fought for our country and bureaucrats who gave their lives for India ? Don’t swallow the propaganda & the lies. Don’t let political dadagiri extend to attacking veterans and retired civil servants while politicians live off honest tax payers theprint.in/opinion/sharp-ed…

Centre has issued an order for re-entry and resumption of the historic Delhi Gymkhana Club land at Safdarjung Road, New Delhi, citing public purpose, defence infrastructure and national security considerations. The government has asked the Club to hand over possession of the property by June 5, 2026.
