यही बेइज्जती करवानी रह गयी थी देश की??
एक विदेशी आदमी खुलेआम बोल रहा है कि दिल्ली में 800 AQI में वो सांस तक नहीं ले पा रहा है, 50 मीटर से ज्यादा नहीं दूर दिख रहा.
ऎसा लगता है 18 सिगरेट पी गया हो.
क्या इसी के लिए देश और दिल्ली ने इनको चुना था??

Make India Great Again! 🙏
average Indian go there b/c they are particularly fond of its natural beauty, history, or architecture? Some do, no doubt about it. Are they going because it offers such economic opportunity - in renumeration, growth or specialization in subfield? Definitely not. Polish people

This inequality creates a cushion of privilege. India youth may still hold core values on what their society should be like. But they lack the will to act on it because it does not contribute to their personal gain, whether its getting that cushy government job or going abroad.

'India’s National Clean Air Programme hasn’t curbed pollution. It needs Swachh Bharat-like push'

Air pollution is a matter of life and death. It is high-time that it becomes a political and public policy priority. @sabookartik and I argue that addressing bureaucratic inertia, civic apathy, and entrenched habits are key to cleaner air and health.

"Trusted geographies" meets "Trusted connectivities". Don't dismiss the India-Middle East-Europe Corridor as a BRI clone. It has more depth and potential because it connects independent and viable economic ecosystems. My piece in @EconomicTimes m.economictimes.com/opinion/…

This is a shame Indian government and Delhi Police called on itself. Wish the Sports Ministry and Women Ministry had shown the spine to stand up for what was the right thing to do rather than over their politics. Wish India’s PM had lived upto his words of Naari Samaan rather than turning a blind eye to the protests. Their silence led to this statement from UWW.
Attended the Global Buddhist Summit 2023 in New Delhi. Graced to be in the presence of @DalaiLama @PMOIndia @mingyurrinpoche. Heard from scholars, and practitioners about the role of dhamma philosophy to address our contemporary challenges from environment, peace to mental health
Very promising news for emerging markets world over. Although increasing EV stations seems like a costly endeavor - there must be cheaper, more feasible alternatives? Also wondering how the transition to solar/renewable sources will play out.

Criticizing the religion/nation is NOT the same as criticizing the followers/people. As a liberal, it puzzles me that they maintain standards of French secularism for one group and flip for the other just because it doesn't fit some narrative.

A stand-up comedian who knows the real meaning of the term "stand up" is not physical but moral -- @thevirdas spoke for millions in this 6-minute take on the Two Indias he hails from & stands up for. youtube.com/watch?v=5A-F9qu6…
"This is a joke, but it's just not funny." Brilliant.

Well said!
Tulsi works at ground level. Greta works at an institutional level by pressurizing Govts. Ultimately both are needed. Without ppl like Greta, corrupt politicians would freely destroy forests at their own will and work of people like Tulsi would go to waste.
Is it mandatory to cancel Greta Thunberg in order to celebrate Tulsi Gowda?
