Post Covid it’s been a struggle to get back to form with long distance running and it is an uphill battle. Need discipline and inspiration to keep going - the goal is a strong finish at @TataMumMarathon in January!

@aaichnairport To the @aaichnairport team: You don’t have to go too far to understand how to operate lifts in indian airports. Look at @CSMIA_Official or @BLRAirport Providing spacious lifts that can accommodate luggage and people is a super basic necessity at high footfall places such as

Where do all the 1000s of crores of ₹ go when they do Phase 2 and Phase 3 of @aaichnairport ? Now I am sure that the airport authorities will say “There are enough lifts at MLCP” Sure if there are enough lifts then how come you have not posted enough and proper signs at the

This is how passengers are made to suffer at @aaichnairport to go to multi level car park. Cramped lifts that don’t have space for trolleys, horribly scary and dirty lifts (Lift P6 I followed the Signboard “Lift Lobby” at West MLCP) ❌ In P6 lift just one trolley can fit! 🙄 Can

Pujara is a legend
Let’s get this straight. If a touring side wants to win in Australia, someone has to volunteer for the longest day. Pujara did it twice. In 2018/19 and 2020/21, Eight Tests. Same attack. Same intent. Cummins, Starc, Hazlewood, Lyon asking the same questions, again and again.

What silliness. Go to Thanjavur not only for the temple but the palace and Saraswati mahal library. Go to Madurai and Keezhadi museum and Nayakar Mahal and the food. Go to Taranganbadi for the old fort and the beach. Go to Yercaud for the hills and climate. +
Tamil Nadu is the land of great Hindu temples. A lifetime isn’t enough to visit them all. But beyond temples, tourism in TN feels stuck in a loop: Ooty. Kodaikanal. Mahabalipuram. Repeat. Despite glossy policies, real diversification hasn’t happened. Hills, forests, coastlines,

When or where did Ānjaneyar ask us to do all this? Where do these practices come from? Do we have to do all this to show our devotion to him? மழித்தலும் நீட்டலும் வேண்டா உலகம் பழித்தது ஒழித்து் விடின்

Despite all these negatives, there is so much beauty and simple joys to be experienced in Goa, especially in low tourist season. Be it long distance leisurely cycling all around Goa or hiring a scooter and aimlessly slow riding to admire the slow life in villages.
Goa’s culture 1) Taxi Mafia 2) Illegal Pubs/Clubs with no safety 3) Drugs 4) Dirty Beaches of North Goa 5) Exorbitantly priced 5 stars & Rampant Loot at Air BNB & Home-stays 6) Super Narrow roads 7) Rising costa for stupid C grade activities 8) Beach Shacks getting

We can’t extrapolate/ format paint Ahmedabad’s civic infrastructure with entire Gujarat’s. I say this as someone who has cycled the length & breadth of both Gujarat and TN. But I agree largely — the fundamental infra of TN’s major cities need a revolutionary improvement for
@TRBRajaa @CMOTamilnadu i was in Ahmedabad recently and the difference in urban quality of life is way higher in GJ. We are undoubtedly ahead in social and most economic metrics but our cities don’t reflect our per capita income. Our Urban infra and aesthetics needs attention.

I would add the following to the “Best of the best” 5/5 list - JW Marriott Mumbai Sahar - Hilton (Ekkatuthangal) Chennai And add the following to “I’ll pass” 2/5 list. Terrible breakfast options and hardly anything for non meat eaters / people who like a diverse range. -
🚨 The Ultimate Luxury Hotel Breakfast Ranking You Didn’t Know You Needed! One of the channels I religiously follow, Flip Flop Traveller, has dropped a massive ranking of breakfasts across 150+ luxury hotels worldwide. ✅ Seeing Andaz Bali so high on the list doesn’t surprise

Maybe this is what will push @chennaicorp to improve basic urban infrastructure in Chennai - remove footpath encroachments, fix the railings and sewer covers, potholes? (I know the answer. They won’t do anything)
After reading this spectacular thread, I feel compelled to visit Chennai and make a footpath video at the intersection of Boat Club Road and Chamiers Road.

Nobody goes to Goa thinking it’s Thailand. Thailand has footpaths, public transport, affordable taxis, a strong tourism infrastructure, and safety. Goa receives a fraction of its potential of tourists and gets overwhelmed by it because of improper planning and infrastructure.
Don’t come to Goa thinking it is Thailand. If you want Thailand kind of tourism culture, you are most welcome to go to Thailand. Goa is Goa. We welcome tourists who want to experience Goa’s culture.

I have seen @virenrasquinha have such a robust and superb Athlete Management System that provides brilliant in insights.
For the first time, Tamil Nadu has introduced an integrated Athlete Management System that brings training, wellness, performance tracking and medical data onto a single intelligent digital platform. Deputy Chief Minister Udhayanidhi Stalin said the system will enable data-driven

Credit where it is deserved. I raised a concern about dark passageway in T4, Chennai Airport and @aaichnairport team has fixed it within a day. I will continue to highlight issues faced by passengers and hope the AAI Chennai airport Team will address them similarly. Good job.
@srini091 The lighting concern at the pedestrian passage opposite Exit A10, Terminal 4, has been addressed, and the area is now well lit. Thank you
