U.S. sanctions bill backed by the White House could allow tariffs of up to 500% on countries that continue to buy Russian oil, putting India once again in the crosshairs of the U.S. and raising the threat of punitive levies on Indian exports.

Got an idea. Let's just rename the Mughals only, as we say.
Babar: Bhaskaravarman
Humayun: Hemendrayavana
Akbar: Amritakaalesvara
Shahjahan: Sahajananda
Aurangzeb: Audavarajan
etc...
The Mughals, ofc, can be the Mangalavamsa
Solvitur simpliciter. Baat khatam.

New Delhi in the future, as visualised by an AI bot. I love how the traffic jams and the monuments are an identity of the city. The third image features the city in a star wars theme #MidJourney

Always been curious about the Indian English word "almirah" (=wardrobe). I had simplistically assumed that it had some Arabic root (bc of the "al-" at the beginning). But no! It's from Hindi "almari", a corruption of the Portuguese "armario", derived from the Latin "armarium." /1

Every year we organise the Annual Book & Bake Sale in Delhi. People donate books and baked goods for it, and we sell them at v low prices (between Rs 20-200). And all proceeds go to a charity or a cause.
This year we got over 4k books, and the collection is FANTASTIC! A thread:
