#WATCH | Navi Mumbai: Managing Director at Dedicated Freight Corridor (DFCCIL), Praveen Kumar says, "There are significant benefits to running double-stack trains. Implementing double-stacking has quadrupled the capacity...the path remains the same, though electricity consumption will be slightly higher since two electric locomotives are required, but there is a massive saving in terms of track usage, allowing us to further increase the number of trains. This will provide a tremendous boost to reducing logistics costs, an impact that will be visible very soon. This is a global first - long-haul double-stack operations on electrified territory...since this corridor is dedicated exclusively to freight, only freight trains will operate on it. Freight train speeds will increase, supply chains will improve, and transit times to destinations will be reduced. A journey that previously took, say, 10 hours could now be completed in 5 hours, depending on the specific route..."

#WATCH | Mumbai, Maharashtra: On PM Modi appreciating his work in Mann Ki Baat 137th episode, creator of the BharatRajya website, Krishna Seshadri says, "... To be honest, it has not yet sunk in. The adrenaline is still there, and I still haven’t realised that what started as a very small hobby project could go to such lengths. I am really grateful to everyone, and especially to the Prime Minister for not only taking notice of this small project, but actually exploring it and then projecting it on Mann Ki Baat. It is still unbelievable for me. The beautiful part was that PM Modi didn’t just speak about the website; he had actually experienced it. He scrolled through it and saw the various features we had created, including the correction box. More than him asking me questions, I’m really grateful that he actually saw and looked through the website. For someone like me who did this as a hobby, Modi Ji, who is deeply entrenched in Indian history, culture and the Indian way of life, liking and appreciating the website is the biggest validation I can ever get for my project. I have always been interested in Indian history..."

#WATCH | Mumbai: On the landslide, Brihanmumbai Municipal Corporation (BMC) Commissioner Ashwini Bhide says, "The rescue operation is already underway. These are government lands where such habitations have come up, and we have been constantly warning them that it is not a safe site and that they should leave. However, certain circumstances may have allowed them to continue staying there. We are taking all necessary measures for the rescue operation."

#WATCH | Mumbai: Shiv Sena UBT MLA Aaditya Thackeray says, "You have seen the support for Sonam Wangchuk and Abhijit Dipke; today, the youth from across Maharashtra have gathered in Mumbai. Tomorrow, we will witness similar enthusiasm and strength in Delhi, and this movement will only grow. The fundamental issue is that the detention of Sonam Wangchuk yesterday goes against the country's democracy, and our sole demand is that Dharmendra Pradhan resign. We are raising the voice of the nation's youth."

#WATCH | Mumbai: Shiv Sena UBT MLA Aaditya Thackeray says, "The youth of the country are stepping onto every platform to demand Dharmendra Pradhan's resignation. This is the kind of accountability we seek; such reckless conduct will not be tolerated in the country, nor will a failed government. We want an accountable government that actually delivers results, not an incompetent one... Our demand is clear: from now on, it is patriots, not blind devotees, who will live in this country."

#WATCH | Mumbai, Maharashtra: Speaking on his book 'Budo for Life', Sensei Eyal Nir, Chief Instructor of the Traditional Karate Do Okinawa-Te Institute (AIBSKA), said, "I'm very happy and proud to have a new book and it was launched this week in India and available worldwide. The book and the program, 'The Budo Way', are in many ways a reflection of my life... The essence of the book is connecting, providing a bridge for the public, for people. Any people, not doing any martial arts, to acquire tools that based or taken from Budo martial arts, but applicable in their life... these tools are very useful, applicable for your success and for your well-being..."

#WATCH | Mumbai, Maharashtra: On Shiv Sena UBT MP Sanjay Raut hurls abuses at suspected rebel MPs, Maharashtra Minister Sanjay Shirsat says, "You must have seen him abusing. He leads a district; he's been working for so many years... I think abusing them and insulting them in this manner was not right. This must have been going on for a long time. The result is that today the MPs don't want to be with them."

#WATCH | Mumbai: Maharashtra Chief Minister Devendra Fadnavis says, "... This will provide great relief to Mumbai. 60% of Mumbai's traffic goes directly via the Western Expressway, and to reduce the pressure on it, we are preparing a signal-free road from Nariman Point to Bhayandar. Our effort is that this entire project will be completed by October-November or December 2028."

#WATCH | Tiruchirappalli, Tamil Nadu: "Our victory" says MNM chief Kamal Haasan on being asked about the message he wants to give with his newly released election song

#WATCH | Pudukkottai, Tamil Nadu: Congress MP Karti Chidambaram says, "We are the larger alliance. We have a natural advantage. The Chief Minister's image is very good. So we hope to win convincingly... We expect the DMK-led Congress participating alliance to win the election..." Additionally, he says, "... The women's reservation bill was passed in 2023. It is part of our constitution. One-third of the seats are reserved for women. We are ready for the reservation of women as long as it is within the size of 543. What we voted against was the delimitation... If that bill had passed through, Tamil Nadu's seat share would have gone up from 39 to 51. But UP seat share would have gone up from 80 to 143... If that had happened, all you had to do was win a handful of seats in the north of India, and then you could rule India. We prevented that..."

#WATCH | Karaikudi, Tamil Nadu: Senior Congress leader P Chidambaram says, "The Prime Minister introduced the 106th constitutional amendment. We passed it. It's part of the constitution. Is he disowning the article 344A? Why doesn't he read 344A in English and Hindi and then address the nation? He does not read or refer to Article 344A. It says clearly that out of the existing 543 seats, one-third will be reserved for women, which means 181 seats have been reserved for women. He can implement it immediately. He can implement it not in this state election, but you can implement it immediately in 2029..." "The Tamil Nadu doors are firmly closed to the BJP. The BJP is the antithesis of the Tamil language, Tamil culture, Tamil history, Tamil tradition and Tamil day-to-day practices. The people of Tamil Nadu will never accept the BJP... This time also, the BJP-led alliance will be kept out of Tamil Nadu."

#WATCH | Karaikudi, Tamil Nadu: Senior Congress leader P Chidambaram says, "In Tamil Nadu, there is a DMK-led alliance which has been tested and tried for the last four elections, including the present one. We won the 2019 Lok Sabha election. We won with a massive victory in 2021 in the Assembly election. We won all 39 seats in the Lok Sabha in the 2024 elections, and we are confident that in this state assembly election, the DMK-led alliance, including the Congress, will win comfortably."
