ಕರ್ನಾಟಕದಲ್ಲಿರುವ ಉದ್ಯಮಗಳಿಂದ ಕನ್ನಡಿಗರು ಏನು ನಿರೀಕ್ಷಿಸುತ್ತಿದ್ದಾರೆ? What Kannadigas are expecting from enterprises in Karnataka?

Not many know that @ARanganathan72 is not only an author & political expert, but also a brilliant scientist. This time he & his team of researchers have discovered a a drug more potent against SARS virus than Remdesivir. The molecule is still in preclinical stage. Hope that it reaches clinical trials soon. Well done Sir 🙏

When CoVID affected our families, snatched our friends from us, both @shailjasingh75 and I, though not virologists, decided we should do something. Here, we report discovery of a mechanism that, when targeted, kills the virus. Link: sciencedirect.com/science/ar… indiatoday.in/science/story/…

National language Chindi didn't save that NRI & this Naarthi scums have the audacity to speak abt Bengaluru.
Never argue for small things like parking, small dent on car, never get into road rage, If someone is provoking, just close your eyes and leave the place, a 5min fight isn't worth losing your life. You never know which type of monster your talking to, some people fear no laws.

No Indian is going to be tempted to buy Apple products because of this ad as the only feeling it brings out is of disgust and failure to recognize India and Diwali. India lost its best ad man Piyush Pandey whose ads ingrained the brand and the ad on the mind forever, in his words the key to making great emotional connection is “Whatever you say, say it with respect for the audience, say it in a context that the audience can understand, say it spontaneously, say it without fear, and say it not to intimidate or frighten, but to delight.”
Apple’s new Diwali ad captures very little of India as it actually is, but almost everything about how outsiders imagine India to be. Hey @Apple, Representation is not the same as understanding.

1. Ranbeef's Ramayan has turned a mega box office disaster given its budget. 2. Paid reviews, increased marketing efforts, freebies, corporate bookings is making things worse. Who knows this was the real plan? 3. Brahmastra of Ranbeef also followed same strategy - invest heavy in marketing and corporate bookings. Call it the greatest blockbuster ever. Then silently sell Dharma Productions showing heavy losses. 4. We @GemsOfBollywood had declared right when film was announced that we oppose it. And for exactly the same reasons, all influencers who refuse to sell themselves are condemning the Islamic- leftist Ravanayana. 5. Today and tomorrow, Ranbeef remains more famous as Big Beef Guy than a stone-faced Ram- pretender. 6. Demise of Urduwood is inevitable. Gems of Bollywood is proud to have been part of this Yajna against Kaalnemis without compromise. इदं न मम।

The narrative is changing. The media that so far was questioning KaRaVe has now started questioning nepotistic hiring practices prevalent in some of these companies. Great work @karave_KRV. Kannadigas are indebted to you. 🙏🙏🙏
Are Kannadigas being overlooked for jobs at Bengaluru Airport? A debate over local employment has intensified at Karnataka's Kempegowda International Airport, with Karnataka Rakshana Vedike (KRV) demanding greater job opportunities for Kannadigas. A KRV delegation met airport officials and representatives of 13 companies over alleged hiring preferences for non-local candidates. According to KRV, the companies have assured them that they will double their local workforce within a year. While allegations of recruitment bias remain unverified, the controversy has raised questions about local employment opportunities at the airport. KIAL's response is awaited. #BengaluruAirport #Karnataka #KRV #Kannadigas #Employment

We have data only from 2008 when Albert Brunner was CEO of BIAL:- Around the airport’s opening (data as of 31 March 2008, under CEO Albert Brunner): 53% of BIAL’s own staff were Kannadigas (out of 473 employees). 40% of managers were Kannadigas (74 out of 185). Concessionaire staff: roughly 80% Kannadigas (of about 2,750 recruits). After Malayali Hari Marar has taken over BIAL, no such data has been published till today . Is that correct ? If yes, Why ? 1. What is the guarantee that there is no biased hiring or any unfair hiring practices? 2. What is the guarantee that Kannadigas are not discriminated in hiring ? 3. Why BIAL has become so opaque despite GOK having significant stake in it ? Where is transperency? @CMofKarnataka @MBPatil @karave_KRV ( data from grok)

🚨 BIAL Clarification | Local Jobs KIA & its region drive Bengaluru's economic growth. We support prioritising locals in jobs. Local communities have lost generations of wealth through land acquisition for airport & KIADB they deserve to benefit from growth through jobs too!

There's some scintillating Japanese anime content on Insta being made on our Itihasas and Puranas by youngsters which is a treat to watch for their respect for the original content and their attention to detail. I did rather watch that and encourage those honest voices. teapaw.org/aravind/status/2119108…

If there are no Kannadigas across any level, in some factory or company operating on Kannada soil, then that factory or company should not exist on Kannada soil. That's it, no ifs and buts.
