Dear @Phogat_Vinesh I cannot imagine how disappointed you must feel. All one can say an Indian, as an admirer, you have won something that cannot be measured in gold silver or bronze. It lasts longer than metal. It is a legacy for athletes of all fields, a display of true patriotism that goes beyond mere thumping of chests to real sweat on a mat, a place on the right side of history for young women and men who will remember you for your humanity as much as your athleticism. Infinitely proud of you 🙏🇮🇳

Are all Govt agencies like SRA and Police, working only under Political Pressure? Don’t they have spine to stand for what is right ? Shri @rautsanjay61 , your brother MLA Sunil Raut is in connivance with infamous Developer, Atul Shirodkar from Nagpur, who has not only looted innocent home buyers in First City project, but is now trying to usurp a plot of 18000 sq mt, by paying a meagre 89 lakh ? Do we even get a 2 BHK in Bhandup for 89 lakh? The plot belongs to innocent middle class people. They are NOT ENCHROACHERS or TENANTS, but are OWNERS. In his office at Mihan, Atul Shirodkar was accused of stealing electricity from MSEDCL. Now with the help of MLA Sunil Raut, he is spreading panic, terrorising and illegally demolishing chawl at Sainagar Chawl Bhandup. How do people fight? No police help, no help from SRA, all are working only under political pressure. Despite knowing all the facts and when the matter before in AGRC, neither ACS Housing Ms Valsa Nair nor SRA CEO Mahendra Kalyankar are taking any action. Spoke to adamant Sunil Raut, thought he might not be knowing facts, but I was shocked to hear him. DEMOLITION Must stop immediately. Now the fight is not only against the Developer Atul Shirodkar, but against MLA Sunil Raut and SRA too.

It's funny how Bengaluru is the tech hub of the country and rickshaws won't use simple tech like a meter

Have recently seen a Podcaster/Youtuber interview several Cabinet Ministers in the Union Government. This piqued my interest and I found that in the description, the phrase, "Co-presented to you by ⁠@MyGovIndia". As I regularly check government websites (one of my many weird habits), I started to wonder if this was pursuant to a tender dated 07.03.2023 titled, "Request for Empanelment (RFE) for Selection of Influencer Marketing Agencies for Empanelment with MyGov" (link at the bottom). If yes, then, is it proper for money from the public exchequer to fund influencer interactions with senior government functionaries? Are audiences properly informed with existing disclosures that such interactions are not press interviews but paid promotions? meity.gov.in/writereaddata/f…

Ordered food from my wife's @Swiggy account, but the delivery partner got stuck due to an accident. He had lost a finger and asked me not to cancel the order, fearing @Swiggy would deduct money from his account. #JusticeForDeliveryPartners #ProtectGigWorkers #Swiggy

Listening to @LennyHenry narrate @neilhimself 's Anansi Boys. What a narration, such great impressions. You've had me chuckling all along. Thank you both.

Such a sobering read. Brave of the writer to come out. Top tier education (BITS Pilani grad) There is a lot of Survivor-ship bias in the follow-your-dreams business.

I did some reporting in Bolivia for this piece by @TheEconomist Here’s a thread with a little more from the interviews, specifically on coca in Bolivia. Thanks to @AndeanInfoNet, @JoaquinChacin, Thomas Grisaffi and Diego Giacoman. economist.com/international/…

Class action in California against Oracle by @johnnyryan and others Ryan and others' recent case against the IAB over RTB was a pretty impressive piece of work This case deals with similar issues but in a much trickier legal environment A rather long🧵 iccl.ie/news/class-action-ag…

Tried looking up information online about MMRDA tenders. Could not find anything. On top all govt. websites are still not encrypted, still use HTTP, not responsive design. How else can we expect better governance when information is not made available to citizens.
