Lapses galore, that is why information under RTI is being denied with the excuse of national security.

An extremely well deserved flop. There is justice. Let the ethical minority rule prevail. I was in Kazakhstan a few times after "Borat"; people were still distressed about it, would bring it up randomly to explain that "the film misrepresents the country". Antigoyimism is real.
Sacha Baron Cohen personally invested $3 million of his own money into the new Ali G film. The film is rumored to have cost over $160 million to make, with 54 credited producers, including 13 executive producers. It has since been pulled from theatres and total box office gross to date is around $3 million. It is on track to be the biggest box-office flop in history.

Destroying ancient, irreplaceable #ecosystems (even #ProtectedAreas) in #Nicobar, Panna #TigerReserve, and #Bhimashankar #Karjat #forests & more.... only to pour crores into 'developing' a 'rainforest' with fake rain and waterfalls for #tourism. Oh, the hubris of man. Make it make sense. 📉🌿🤡🤦‍♂️🌳

With the Indian stock market being one of the world's worst performing, naturally many anxious middle-class Indians are now looking to invest in foreign stock markets. But even that channel might soon be closed if a news report is to be believed. Automatic capital outflows under the LRS might soon be completely shut. I unpack how India's BJP-leaning middle class is now taken fully for granted in my weekly newsletter, the India Fix indiafix.stck.me/post/226242…

To suggest that a country should build expensive infrastructure without forward planning or usage modelling is the mirror image of say Lalu saying in the 90s that we should not build infrastructure at all. Please only build if you can reliably model that usage will come. Public monies is not an unlimited asset. It should be deployed in the most efficient manner possible.
Always build infra, the usage will come. The initial reluctance will change when speeds are faster and more shipments can happen in the same time. This oh-how-dare-this-poor-country-build-highways because look at this usage metric - is a really short sighted piece of analysis.

You won’t understand what courage looks like Mr Rijiju. At this age, he looks like a more nationalist than any of you. He is speaking up FOR the country (Mind you Modi and your party doesn’t mean India) Naseer Saab could have stayed quiet like many other spineless veteran actors who keep correcting their tweet numbers at a time when their country needed them to speak up. We have also lost respect for them. He is not just an amazing actor on screen but people like him are the real heroes.
I thought Naseeruddin Shah was just an ordinary actor. I used to respect & like him.. I never knew that he was a dangerous urban Dimagi Naxal ! मुझे उसके असली चरित्र के बारे में बहुत देर से पता चला।। भारत के लोकतंत्र के लिए अत्यंत हानिकारक है।

I fully believe Bari Weiss when she says she doesn't care about collapsing ratings. The only reason to care about ratings is profit, and that's not why Larry Ellison, at the age of 82, suddenly went on a frantic shopping spree to purchase Hollywood's studios (Paramount and Warner Bros), news outlets (CBS, CNN), and social media (TikTok). Ellison is the second-richest man on earth. He is not motivated by money-making in the last stage of his life. He bought all these news and entertainment outlets to turn them into Israeli State TV, to try to stem the rising disgust Americans harbor for Israel. Ellison is one of Netanyahu's best friends. He's the single-largest donor to Friends of the IDF. His only political cause is Israel. All the key people he and his son hired as Israel loyalists. So Bari Weiss is telling the truth: her job isn't to increase ratings but to convert CBS into Zionist propaganda.
During her on-stage interview, according to the article, Bari Weiss dismissed concerns about weak ratings at 60 Minutes by saying: “I could never build anything if I were focused on the precise number of people that happen to tune in to the second feature on 60 Minutes on a given Sunday.” theinformation.com/articles/…

BEYOND BIZARRE: SC observes that ‘logical discrepancy’ category for removing voters from electoral rolls in Bengal was an ‘interim measure’ and legality has not been decided. Ah! But your Lordships the Bengal elections are done and dusted and you didn’t allow lakhs of eligible voters to vote as a result of an ‘interim measure’? @AneeshaMathur has more

Be scared. Be very scared. The truth is being set free, finally! And the youth is leading the wave. 🪳
I think @narendramodi govt is losing the battle of perceptions particularly on @instagram. Every day hundreds of propaganda reels are being made against the govt that is being forcibly pushed on the timelines of everyone, even when you don’t follow the makers. The platform has clearly picked a side. And @AshwiniVaishnaw’s ministry seems to be either clueless about it, or the babus are compromised. @blsanthosh
