Unwarranted opinion: all the VCs in this country want their startups to ‘change the world’ and be ‘mission-driven’, without giving a rat’s a*ss on the reality of what’s going on @country . Clearly, the cheque size and carry is the only thing that matters, and rest is all rhetoric!

Dear Indians - learn from Karnataka et al. Focus on what matters to you - jobs, economy, harmony, social fabric, progress & growth. Not communal and polarising politics. Not hubris. We won’t be “vishwa guru” by proclaiming it, but only by delivering it.

@sampad You are taking to it an extreme binary. That’s reducing a complex/wicked problem to a simple/kind problem. Not everything can be reduced to such basics in a dynamic world. This leads to polarisation, without space for nuances. Us vs them isn’t the answer.
