The women vote loyalty towards Nitish is built on countless such stories.
When an Old woman living in remote juggi, with no access to TV or Social Media, has to say this about a Politician, no combination can defeat him! For me, this was the most heartwarming video of this #BiharElection

I grew up in Bihar in the 90s, right in the heart of Lalu's Jungle Raj. Saw it firsthand - it's not a myth and lalu is no 'pichdon ka maseeha', as the intellectual media wants you to believe. My father, a govt servant, battled chronic renal failure. To withdraw his own GPF he had

- I went to boarding school at 5yrs straight from my village. - A friend at 6-7 years was kidnapped. Never found. - Cut my hand many times in cleaning lanterns & lamps to be able to study. - Roads did not exist. School to home then was 17 hours. Today 8 hours, thanks to roads.

A month in this new Bangalore stint. Amongst the things more than the weather I am grateful for is the people I get to meet.

Wonderful read
the bangalore/ sf corridor is finally real: founders, capital, and ideas moving both ways. but the conversation needs way more common sense. silicon valley doesn’t fund tourism. it funds ambition, originality. the physics are completely different across the two markets. what

The startup service provider directory is live 🚀 Got tired of the “bro do you know a good deck designer” DMs so I built a phone book for the Indian startup ecosystem. Revolutionary, huh? 250+ providers across 15 categories - pitch decks, legal, accounting, market research,

Founders are usually the ones pitching. This time, it’s our turn to share why you should work with us. (Outside of the food bribes & killer comedy.) ICYMI, we just raised a new $129 Mn fifth fund to back startups at the idea, pre-seed, and seed stages. If you’re building,
