“Authority is responsibility, not entitlement.” The day every politician truly understands this, we will witness the beginning of a new era —> a Sat-Yuga of responsible leadership, service, and accountability.

10–15 years ago in #Goa, Ganpati Visarjan was largely conducted in a disciplined and respectful manner, with processions and fireworks generally concluding by around 11 p.m. Today, Visarjan often continues late into the night and sometimes until early morning. The issue is not the timing of Visarjan itself, but the excessive use of fireworks and loud sound systems during processions. Air and noise #pollution can affect hospital patients, senior citizens, children, working people and residential neighbourhoods & we should also be mindful that people of different faiths live alongside us. Festivals should remain joyful, but celebration should go hand in hand with responsibility, civic discipline and respect for everyone. 🙏🏻 #GanpatiVisarjan #CivicResponsibility #NoisePollution #FestivalResponsibility

The increasing number of people begging on Goa’s roads has become a serious concern, particularly from the perspective of child safety and traffic management. What is more worrying is that very young children who are barely a foot tall, are being sent onto busy roads for begging by their parents. These children are too young to understand traffic movement and the dangers around vehicles. As a driver, it can sometimes be extremely difficult to see such a small child standing close to the front of a vehicle because the child may be below the bonnet’s line of sight. This creates a serious risk of an accident, where the child could become an unintended victim. @DGP_Goa @prudentgoa @InGoa24x7 @PrimeTVGoa #Goa

Kindly Note as informed to me by my Bank: A nationwide bank strike is proposed from 28.09.2026 to 30.09.2026. Customers are requested to avail themselves of branch banking services, if required, by 25.09.2026. Digital banking services, including Mobile/Internet Banking, UPI, ATMs and Phone Banking, will continue to remain available during the strike period.

🇮🇱 #Israel doesn’t have enough natural water. 🇯🇵 #Japan lacks natural resources. 🇸🇬 #Singapore lacks agricultural land. 🇸🇦 #Saudi Arabia lacks forests. 🇨🇭 #Switzerland has no ocean. 🇳🇱 #Netherlands has no mountains. Yet they have built nations that outperform us in many areas. 🇮🇳 #India has everything. So, what is that one reason we are still behind them?

Remembering my idol, former Prime Minister of India, Atal Bihari Vajpayee Ji. 🇮🇳 Thirty years have passed, yet the question he raised still echoes in the minds of Indians today. Some questions outlive generations and remain relevant because they were never truly answered. #BJP #INC #APP #INDIA #Corruption #politics #election

Unfortunately.... Today, public in #INDIA often feels like those students who keeps being told: “There’s one more fee to pay" by their institution.😂

A blunderous move by the ruling government. If reports are correct that NPCI is already in surplus & banks are making profits, then why introduce charges on UPI transactions above ₹2,000? What is the actual cost of running the #UPI system? Can the government explain it transparently? Pay ₹3,000 to a merchant, or transfer ₹3,000 to a friend, the underlying digital transaction is still happening through the same UPI infrastructure. So why should there be two different policies for what is essentially the same mode of payment? Before burdening citizens & businesses with new charges, the government should explain the rationale, the actual cost involved, and who ultimately benefits.

Two of my friends just arrived in #Goa, checked into their hotel, and within 30 minutes received a WhatsApp message offering escort services. At this rate, is Goa promoting tourism or has tourism promotion quietly taken a whole new direction? 🤦🏻‍♂️ Maybe the Tourism Department needs to rethink what kind of “welcome” visitors are actually getting. Who shared their numbers or does technology is far to ahead than what we think ?

Amazing what an #election can do. 😏 Potholes suddenly get repaired. #Garbage suddenly disappears. Broken infrastructure suddenly gets replaced and all that from the candidate’s own pocket. A few weeks of “public service” before #voting day 🗳️.... Then, mysteriously, the service disappears for 4 more years again.

India’s push for ethanol blending is reshaping commodity economics. No doubt that it's affecting vehicle 🚙🛵engines but ... When more sugarcane juice/syrup & molasses are diverted to ethanol production, less sugar reaches the market which is affecting sugar prices. At the same time, higher feed costs, particularly maize, can raise poultry costs and eventually affect egg 🥚 prices. The bigger question: Are ethanol policies indirectly making everyday food more expensive? 🇮🇳 #Ethanol #Sugar #EggPrices #Inflation #India

This is what I found when I tried to apply online for a copy of my driving licence through the official #Goa State Transport Department website. Personal information, along with other important official uploaded state documents may be unsafe now. @TranportG81016

In my opinion, the state government should not consider an #VoterID as valid proof of an individual’s state origin, especially when numerous cases of duplicate entries have been identified by private individuals as well as by the #ElectionCommission itself.

Checking pollution certificates is pointless when govt can't stop morning fires! 😒 What's the point of rules if they're not enforced? 🤷‍♂️ #AirPollution #StopPollution #Goa

Alert: This is the state of a government building in #Goa with around 10 departments functioning inside. No one knows when it might collapse or how many people could be affected. The front is kept presentable, but the backside tells a completely different story. @goacm

Traffic in #Dubai is worse than in many major Indian cities. Surprisingly, the local management system has such strong control over influencers that no one even dares to speak about it.

In the year 1987 - Our ancestors chose to keep #Goa independent by voting against merging with Maharashtra and today, we’re letting people from Karnataka rule us. All thanks to Goan politicians...

Within a year 5 to 6 new spa centers opened on 18th June road in Panjim, #Goa. It can be seen as an early sign of consumer interest shifting toward the wellness and leisure economy, similar to what happened on Pattaya’s walking streets years ago.

As an #Indian, I’m deeply hurt by the decision of the #BJP government and #BCCI to let our #Cricket team play against #Pakistan. It feels like our pain has been ignored for the sake of a game. #OperationSindoor #OperationMahadev #OpposeIndoPakCricket
