One thing the ECI’s SC affidavit makes it clear: the entire petition relies heavily on a single @IndianExpress report.
Wish SC procedures in high-stakes PILs routinely involved calling the reporter to testify on the factual basis of the story - without touching source confidentiality.
Would clear up so much, especially amidst reports of internal debate over the article itself.

कर्जत पंप स्टोरेज प्रकल्प हा पर्यावरणाला पूरक असाच प्रकल्प*
काय आहे वस्तुस्थिती?
- हा गुजरातचा प्रकल्प नाही, तो महाराष्ट्राचा आहे. या प्रकल्पामुळे गुंतवणूक महाराष्ट्रात, रोजगार महाराष्ट्रात आणि निर्माण होणारी वीज सुद्धा महाराष्ट्रातच!
- यातून 12,000 मेगावॉट वीज महाराष्ट्राला मिळेल. 30,000 कोटींची गुंतवणूक यातून येणार आहे.
- हा कोळशावर आधारित प्रकल्प नाही तर सौर ऊर्जा आधारित, त्यामुळे पर्यावरणाला नुकसान करणारा नाही तर पर्यावरणाला पूरक
- पंप स्टोरेज प्रकल्प असल्याने याचे स्थान निश्चित असते. तो अन्यत्र करता येत नाही.
- या प्रकल्पाला 233 हेक्टर जमीन लागणार असल्याने पर्यायी वृक्षारोपणसाठी कंपनीने वन विभागाला आधीच 253 हेक्टर जमीन सुपूर्द केली आहे. त्यानंतरच वन विभागाने परवानगी दिली.
- शिवाय परवानगीसाठी 18 महिन्यांची संपूर्ण वैधानिक प्रक्रिया पूर्ण केली आहे. सर्व संबंधित प्राधिकरणाच्या परवानगी संपूर्ण पर्यावरणीय अभ्यासानंतर प्राप्त झाल्या आहेत.
- हा प्रकल्प सैदोनगर रायगड जिल्ह्याच्या कर्जत तालुक्यात भीमाशंकर वन्यजीव अभयारण्यापासून सुमारे 16 किमी दूर आहे. सर्व प्रकल्प घटक अभयारण्याच्या सीमेबाहेर आणि इको-सेन्सिटिव्ह झोन (ESZ) बाहेर आहेत. त्यामुळे अभयारण्यात कोणतीही झाडे तोडणे किंवा काम चालू नाही.
- हा प्रकल्प भीमाशंकर ज्योतिर्लिंग मंदिरापासून सुमारे 20 किमी दूर आहे. मंदिराजवळ कोणतेही प्रकल्प काम प्रस्तावित नाही.
- या प्रकल्पामुळे पीक तासांमध्ये स्वच्छ वीज मिळेल. इतकी वीज तयार करण्यासाठी वर्षाला सुमारे 4.6 दशलक्ष टन कोळशाचे ज्वलन टाळले जाणार आहे.
- वर्षाला 40 लाख वाहनांमुळे जितके कार्बन उत्सर्जन होते, तितके या प्रकल्पाने टळणार आहे.
- याच प्रकल्प क्षेत्रात टॉरेंट कंपनी 60,000 झाडे लावणार असून वन विभाग 30,000 झाडे लावणार आहेत.
- पाणी आणि जमीन वाचवली: वर्षाला सुमारे 19.7 अब्ज लिटर कूलिंग वॉटर, जे 4 लाख लोकांसाठी पुरेसे आहे ते यात वाचवण्यात आले. इतक्या क्षमतेच्या प्रकल्पात वर्षाला सुमारे 1.6 दशलक्ष टन फ्लाय अॅश आणि 40-50 हेक्टर नवीन ओपन-कास्ट मायनिंग होते. ते या पंप स्टोरेज प्रकल्पामुळे टाळले गेले आहे.

स्वतः पैसे कमवून गब्बर झाल्यावर इतरांना ज्ञान शिकवणं सोपं असतं.
यांचे सिनेमे जिथे लागतात ती सिनेमाघरं पर्यावरणपूरक असतात काय?

I have a request for @SuvenduWB Sir
Build few Highways Less, Build few Airports & Industries lesser.
Development can wait.

Whenever a Pawar, Thackeray, or Gaikwad opposes a project, remember: the angst is usually personal.
Look at history - this exact pattern kept Maharashtra’s development stuck in limbo for decades. While conservation matters, progress can't be held hostage to political rivalries.
The biggest weakness of BJP-led govts today? Communication is entirely reactive. They don't get ahead of the narrative or learn from past playbooks.
Miss the 2011 era when the Boss was proactive, setting the agenda instead of playing catch-up.
SIGH

More than 32,500 trees may have already been felled in Karjat to build resorts and bungalows. No one complained then.
According to reports, approx 32,490 trees have been ordered to be felled in Karjat, Maharashtra, for Torrent Power’s Saidongar-1 pumped-storage project. Let that number sink in!
We are destroying forests that took generations to grow, threaten the homes of countless living beings, and then have the audacity to call it development. The arrogance of believing that everything on this planet exists for human convenience is frightening.
We're already witnessing unbearable heat, droughts, water scarcity, disappearing wildlife and a planet struggling to survive. Yet human greed knows absolutely no limits!
We demand cleaner air, cooler cities and a better future while mercilessly destroying the very things that make them possible.
How much more must nature suffer to satisfy our endless selfishness? What exactly are we developing if we destroy everything worth protecting?
This planet was never ours alone. Can we please, for once, just STOP?

1. Nehru Outer Ring Road. Fortunately everyone calls this as ORR & many have forgotten Nehru.
2. Rajiv Gandhi Cricket Stadium (Visakha Industries paid for its name to be included but later changed)
3. Rajiv Gandhi International airport for insulting a Telugu Bidda CM in the old Begumpet airport.
Every time pilot announces when I land in the strip I ask what did Rajiv Gandhi do to deserve his name in this amazing airport.

BIG BREAKING: Gyanesh Kumar and EC goes on the front foot.
ECI FILES AFFIDAVIT BEFORE SUPREME COURT
ECI SAYS ALL DECISIONS PERTAINING TO SIR UNANIMOUS
Election Commission of India files counter affidavit in Supreme Court on plea against CEC's functioning; says petition built entirely on a single news report
What ECI says:
Affidavit approved unanimously by all three members: the CEC and both Election Commissioners
All three SIR orders (June 2025, October 2025, May 2026) were unanimous decisions of the Commission
Notes, queries or suggestions by the CEC or ECs while a file moves are not decisions of the Commission
Files go to one EC, then the other EC, then the CEC. In urgent cases, approval is taken electronically and recorded on file later
Any officer issuing orders beyond delegated powers will face action
July 28 work allocation order was issued by an Additional Secretary on deputation. Both ECs wrote to the Cabinet Secretary the next day. The order was never implemented after the ECs' joint direction of July 30
Form 6 has not been amended. Only the Centre can amend it. The SIR declaration is a separate document
Admits the online display could be read as an amendment. From October 21, the online application will be split into Form 6 and the declaration, as in the physical form
Unmapped voters need not attend hearings. BLOs will collect documents from their homes. Hearings only in exceptional cases, preferably online
ECINet: no name is added or deleted except by order of the ERO. A committee with experts from IIT and IISc has been set up to check compliance
Goa: of 97 "left out" voters, 88 had already been enrolled, 6 were abroad and 3 held Portuguese passports
West Bengal appeals against inclusion of voters were filed by officers of the CEO, West Bengal, under Supreme Court orders. "These matters were not brought to the Commission"
Plea to restrain the CEC is not maintainable. CEC can be removed only like a Supreme Court judge
Commission never released or authorised the release of any internal note or file to the media
Repeated challenges to EVMs already rejected by the Supreme Court
Short reply filed due to Dussehra vacation. ECI seeks liberty to file a detailed para-wise response

Yes, what is happening in Andhra Pradesh is truly "extraordinary" @pbhushan1
1. Water from Krishna river is diverted downstream to Kuppam, 700 kms away.
2. Water from Godavari is diverted upstream to Anakapalle, 200 kms away
3. Flood waters of Krishna are diverted upstream 40kms to Veligonda.
Serious governance issues, that the likes of you will never be able to grasp.

I want @Dev_Fadnavis to start a govt body to enter redevelopment space.
Subcontract construction work to L&T.
Give 25% more space to original flat holders than pvt players. Value saleable flats 25% less than pvt players.
Still get a decent profit (pvt builders earn supernormal profits hence the inventory holding power).

An unfortunate ending to a great match in the M25 Mumbai Final!
Karan Singh won his maiden M25 Title in his third attempt. He came back from a 1-4 double break down to clinch the first set, and then Diggy couldn't sustain the heat in S2.
With this title, he might make the top 355
