India’s shiny new metros are costly white elephants-@mihirssharma I Disagree! Metro is the only solution for India’s Metros. But it needs DENSE NETWORK & LAST MILE Connect to be effective. Hence Delhi works & LKO/Jaipur don’t. @MoHUA_India

Share photos of the road on Both sides where ROB is pending. Also the Forest edge where road stops. Mark on the map too..
@rk_misra @DKShivakumar @BBMPCOMM @kiranshaw Please focus in getting ROB at Panathur for 150 ft #CDP road. It will act as link road between ORR and #Varthur road. In turn will help to decongest #Bengaluru East #BrandBengaluru

Bane of Bangalore IT Corridor- Panathur S Cross (actually S Shaped 3 mtr wide road) carrying lakhs of commuters daily. BBMP took 8 years to acquire few dilapidated structures. Apathy, incompetence or just lethargy. 😢 @DKShivakumar @BBMPCOMM @kiranshaw

@myogiadityanath @myogioffice Yogi Ji, you/your government have organised the largest congregation of humanity and faith with true commitment & care but there are profiteers who are exploiting the occasion like our airlines. You must take this up with Central Govt & Regulators.
Extortion by Airlines during #Mahakumbh All flights to Prayagraj, Varanasi, Lucknow, Kanpur or Ayodhya from anywhere cost Rs 14,000-30,000. It’s extortion of hapless travellers/pilgrims by airlines. @MoCA_GoI must cap fares. @DGCAIndia @PMOIndia @airindia @IndiGo6E @republic

Avoid visiting Delhi today & till January. If GoI and State Govt can’t fix air pollution, how will we attract FDI/China+1. Beijing used to be like Delhi but Chinese fixed it. @PMOIndia @narendramodi @NITIAayog @nitin_gadkari

Indeed a productive discussion. Very encouraged with DCM’s @DKShivakumar commitment to improving BLR’s infrastructure, both immediate short term and long term infrastructure needs of the city. Thank you @kiranshaw for hosting the discussion.
Productive evening at @Kiranshaw residence, with discussions on Bengaluru's pressing issues with key stakeholders! Grateful for the valuable insights from @kris_sg @prashanthp ,@rk_misra @mlanaharis @nnarasimhan , @ragubengaluriga & senior Govt officials. I am sure that our collaborative efforts will drive Bengaluru's growth & progress!

@pravchak ji, BLR-India’s highest job creator, 3rd largest GDP, tech/innovation hub, highest per capita income- But 30 lakh stuck 3-4 daily in traffic/companies leaving BLR. WE NEED HELP! Can @RahulGandhi pl help his state govt to fix BLR infra? @CMofKarnataka @DKShivakumar
Pl ask @RahulGandhi to do this in states ruled by @INCIndia Empty Rhetoric which changes every day is of no use. See how INC govt led by @CMofKarnataka @siddaramaiah @DKShivakumar have ruined Bengaluru, spoiling job creation by lack of governance, investment and misrule.

Our leaders have abandoned the city. They are busy in party, politics, by-elections, CBI/ED inquiries and freebies. The economic lifeline of the city ORR/IT Corridor/Mahadevapura/Whitefield/Sarjapura is ignored and left to suffer. Sad & sorry state of affairs.
Lack of action by @CMofKarnataka @siddaramaiah @DKShivakumar @PriyankKharge on roads, drainage, traffic on ORR is leading to huge anger and is forcing many MNC’s to seriously consider expanding outside City.promises made by CM, DCM repeatedly not upheld,trust down. This is very serious. CM/DCM should take urgent action to save city and jobs. Never seen this kind of anger and pain in last 20 years. Very sad at the misgovernance of city,false promises, lack of action. Sad day for all of us to have such a non performing, callous, indifferent govt which treats its own citizens so badly. @kiranshaw @kris_sg @rajeevgowda @rk_misra @lkatheeq @noorainee @RevathyAshok @BPACofficial

Rarely a business tycoon inspires a nation with his human centric approach to business & life. An epitome of business ethics & visionary leadership. We will miss him. May his soul RIP 🙏

Truly admire @svembu for taking the jobs where people are, rather than cramming them in crumbling cities. We need more such. Organisations like @nasscom need to bring out a report and organise brainstorming sessions on this. @PiyushGoyal @GoI_MeitY @investindia @rnivruti
Last week, we opened a nice campus in Tharuvai in Tirunelveli district, about 1 hour from where I live in Tenkasi. I love this new campus! With this we have 3 major centres in southern districts: Mathalamparai in Tenkasi, Kappalur in Madurai and Tharuvai in Nellai. We are also expanding in the Kumbakonam area and we have a significant presence in Palladam near Coimbatore. We have many smaller satellite offices too and I work out of a small satellite in a remote village. We are taking aggressive steps to direct our growth in Tamil Nadu towards rural offices so we don't further overcrowd Chennai.

@kaushikcbasu @kaushikcbasu These are the views of an economist or political ideologue- seems later. There are no skilled workers for available jobs as our education system gets you degree not the skills or learning. Govt jobs are coveted for the money & retirement perks.
