Right now roads are blocked in Mumbai suburbs and local trains on @Central_Railway are running half hour late. The problem is never about infrastructure @AshwiniVaishnaw but about efficiency and work ethic. People fall off trains coz they are late and packed.

Volte face! It’s popular opinion in India is that @narendramodi helps @AdaniOnline most. But, in the Russian import oil matter, the root cause for Trump’s tariffs, the world is led to believe that prime minister is ready to risk the country’s trade for #MukeshAmbani.

The high petrol price and ethanol issue reeks of an immoral, profiteering government. @BJP4India have a created a bad monster for business to follow: create a monopoly and dictate prices with scant respect for market dynamics.

Why should anyone pay for weather reports? Wednesday and Thursday last week were orange alert days in #Mumbai when there was hardly any rain. Yesterday was normal rain day but the city got flooded. @TOIIndiaNews @IndianExpress @htTweets.

Pune’s ILS Law sent a mother to Delhi to fetch original mark sheet for verification. It wouldn’t accept a digital one from @digilocker_ind as it was physical verification day. 100-year old college seeped in antiquity? @LiveLawIndia @barandbench @indiankanoon.

In the old Mumbai plan, central Matunga had access to 3 suburban stations: Matunga, Matunga Road and Kings Circle. In new plan, it has no access to Metro rail. Karmic fruits served the Indian way. @TOIIndiaNews @IndianExpress @mid_day @fpjindia @lokmat @mybmc.

The quarter century rule:. 1975: Domestic Pharma manufacturing begins after restrictions on MNCs. 2000: Indian firms begin export to the US, passing stringent US FDA rules. 2025: First serious recognition of Indian new drug research.
Glenmark’s novel blood cancer drug under development, which was bought by Abbvie for a whopping $700 million, was their last bet, says Glenn Saldanha. The deal vindicated 25 years of resilient focus on innovation. @tsurendar @satishjohn .

No success is too late. This is a great turn of events for Glen Saldanah who never gave up taking bets based on his conviction that he can indeed discover a drug.
The deal also entails $1.23 billion in milestone payments. While Glenmark unit IGI will retain rights for India and emerging markets, AbbVie will develop and market ISB 2001 in North America, Europe, Japan, and Greater China.(@_jesthetic reports).

There is no @ViCustomerCare mobile 4G connectivity inside busy #vashi station and several other spots along the suburban railway track. 30 years of Indian mobile services? Thank you @TRAI @JM_Scindia @DoT_India.
