Russell Napier: «We Are Entering a Time of Financial Repression» https://t.co/SGOcS0jCBo via @TheMarket_CH "Most of the skills investors have learnt since 1979 are now obsolete" 😀😀

Met with DCM Shri @DKShivakumar today to discuss alternatives to the Tunnel Road Project. Expressed our opposition to the project, as it is not a sustainable solution and would not effectively address Bengaluru’s traffic congestion. An 18 km car-centric road is an impractical

What we must envision for Bengaluru is a global city built on ease of access, efficient public transport, and equitable mobility. A city where every citizen can reach work, school, or leisure using affordable public transport. 22/22

No transport system can succeed without good roads and footpaths. The number of buses must rise to 15000. Private participation should be encouraged to expand coverage so that every citizen can access a bus within five minutes anywhere in the city. 14/n

I’m staying in a hotel in Zürich . An Indian family , after having the breakfast, they filled their empty buckets with food , fruits, yoghurt, boiled egg, which they can eat during the day . It was clearly mentioned at the entrance of the breakfast area, not to pack anything

This invitation from history of Jayanagara’s inauguration in 1948 is a reminder of how Bengaluru went from Jayanagar’s planned blueprint to today’s maddening chaos. The invitation reveals the seriousness with which our leaders once approached city-building. It wasn’t merely an

The Good Boy Trap. I was always a ‘good boy’. At home and in school. The boy grew into a teenager who stayed away from all bad habits and into a professional that followed the beaten course. Approval mattered to me. Parents, teachers, elders, bosses- my authorities changed

India’s medical tourism is such an under-exploited goldmine. Wife’s surgery was quoted at $30,000 in Singapore - cost $2,000 in India, in a good hospital. The problem is the ecosystem- travel, logistics, safety concerns. Fix it and India could become the ‘global healing hub.’

Oh man, Satish Shah passed away!! As a regular (child) viewer of 'Yeh Jo Hai Zindagi' in the 1980s in the only TV channel of that time (Doordarshan) in our old Solidaire B&W TV in Srirangam, Trichy... this feels like a personal loss :( He was fantastic in Jaane Bhi Do Yaaron too,

I think the difference between a developed country and an undeveloped country is not income inequality. It is power asymmetry. In undeveloped countries, people in government, be it politicians, civil servants or judiciary, have an extraordinary right to trample on citizens and

A lot of people ask why so many Indians run abroad the first chance they get? Why some states have temples dedicated to foreign country visas? Why some people are so desperate to get away that they even risk death by drowning or freezing to illegally enter other countries? Why

@aravind @VineetAgl Paddy farming in punjab mostly started when politicians started providing free power in around 2000. It's water intensive crop.

Oh, to go back in time, stroll into Cafe Samovar and order a chicken a la poos with dahi vada, keema paratha and boiled rice to remember a man who delighted us in so many ways and roles.

The fastest way of upgrading the look of Indian cities is to just fix the pavements! Broken verges, dirt and garbage on the side of the roads is a major reason why Indian cities look worse than their counterparts abroad. Also contributes to air pollution.

The Tale of Two Bridges Bridges are an important part of many cities. You build them well; they are a lifesaver. Build them badly, and you curse them for years. Whether you like it or not, bridges are very critical in the complicated maze that is the urban commute system.

The worst bank acc to me is the @AxisBank Some Manish CHABRA has raised a bill of 1 lakh 83000 rupees in his axis credit card and run away. The Bank is sending messages to me for last 5 years not from any number but platforms. Told them this number I have since 1998, bu their

Something as basic as footpaths can give disproportionate dividends for physical AND mental health. Below post is abt BLR but applies to the entire country. Time to fix this @Dev_Fadnavis @mybmc @DrSanMukherjee

Bandra-Worli sealink is now older than many other arterial "highway/roads" in Mumbai - how is the drive quality so much better? Wht did the contractors then know that the current guys dont?

On my way to the ground in Delhi and my heart sank when I saw people feeding a whole army of pigeons. Doctors have been shouting from the rooftops about the dangers of inhaling pigeon droppings and the severe lung disease it could lead to. Please, let us stop feeding pigeons.

our landlord lives on the second floor in the same house as we do, and most of the times he’s home out of curiosity, we asked him about his full-time work to which said that he’s a full time landlord manages the house that we live in, the adjoining house and probably a bunch
