With the defeat of #ArvindKejriwal in his own seat and the @AamAadmiParty in Delhi, @narendramodi becomes the only leader after Pandit Nehru to have not lost any election, either as a constituency candidate or as the PM/CM candidate. Nehru contested 3 elections, while @narendramodi has contested 6 elections. Every other Indian political leader of consequence has lost elections at some point in their careers. #DelhiElections2025

Fortunate, in some worldly sense, are those who can be indifferent to political developments at a fundamental level.
The real tax is society forcing otherwise productive people to pay attention to politics. @naval

This is so sad. But very naive of anyone to expect stricter regulations in India around adventure sports. Indians should simply not indulge in adventure sports in India - PERIOD!!! If one values one’s life, then one should indulge in adventure sports only and only in nations were the consequences of negligence is very severe.
Yesterday I had the very sad duty to attend the funeral of Jeyesh Ram, 27 year old son of my dear friend Cibi Anand and Priya. He lost his life in a para-gliding accident in Kulu, Himachal Pradesh last Friday. Way too many accidents happen with sickening regulatory there and I am deeply saddened Jeyesh became the latest statistic. Much stronger regulatory oversight required here. We had invested in Jeyesh's venture Tools Hub, a fast growing hardware retail store franchise. His father Anand suggested the name Karuvi and it was Tools Hub distributor Abdul Gafoor, a long time Zoho customer and good friend of Anand who suggested the idea of Karuvi to us. Jeyesh was a dashing young man, very kind to his employees and all those around him. He had the world ahead of him. He was a risk taker. So am I but even at his age I would do a risk analysis and would have declined para-gliding in Kulu as too accident prone. I hope young people, particularly young men, avoid bad risks like this. I hope his death does not go in vain and regulators take a good look at this. All of us came together to bid tearful farewell to Jeyesh yesterday. Om Shanti 🙏

Hello @instagram, this is a fake account in my name. The account holder is chatting through this account and asking for my friends and relatives to transfer money, as though I’m asking for it. @InstagramComms

A very clear articulation of the problem and solution by @PierrePoilievre. Truly a common sense approach that became so uncommon in Canada. #JustinTrudeau

It’s nothing short of appalling that the western media labels the Bangladeshi government under Sheik Hasina on par with the truly autocratic regimes like Syria. The hatred of the west towards global south nations that don’t tow their line is dangerous for democracy and the world. Sorry @WSJ, you got this wrong.

@EurekaForbes I’ve sent a private message. Btw, the customer complaint number I’ve mentioned is what I get from your helpline when I call your helpline from the registered mobile number.
