I teach modern history at the university of Delhi. I am interested in the legal, urban and sonic histories of South Asia; museums and memorialisation in India.

I used the @urbancompany services and suffered damange to my house as a result. I made a complaint and explained why I was reporting the situation a few days late, and I had absolutely no satisfactory reply. Will not be using again for sure.
I have been locked out of my VFS global account, and although I should be allowed back in after 30 minutes, I cannot do so. I wish to make an appointment as soon as possible and now cannot do so. Please help. @vfsglobalcare @VFSGlobal
Thank you Sukhalata and Megha for oganizing such an interesting workshop!
Why does legal consciousness matter? We brainstormed on this question today at our day-long workshop, organised by @megha_sh2389, @Sukhalata3 and MWF. Here are some snippets from the brilliant panels. @nit_sinha @aparnab2015 @DhirajNite @mailradhakumar
I had sent an urgent courier to Sydney through Aramex, my courier guy assured me that the parcel would reach quickly and safely. The package has reached Sydney on the 5th and there has been no update since then. The courier guy has received a message saying
there is a backlog of packages going to Australia - nothing further. What does this mean? When does my delivery take place? @Aramex Most disappointed at the quality of service, will never use again
December is the time that I start ordering Christmas cake ( and January is the time that I start making those diet and exercise resolutions). Just tried Theobroma's - so-so I would say. I will order from my all time favorite, Wenger's of course

Do read this important piece by @nagrajadve about the challenges involved in a faster energy transition in India.
#ClimateChange | It is in the interest of its own people that India’s energy transition is faster & that rising emissions slow down. A key challenge for India in enabling a faster energy transition is mobilising the investment needed.

Terrible service from @Hindware_India. Bought a kitchen sink with faulty outlet pipes. Endless calls for five days ans no-one has arrived with a replacement. Will not recommend Hindware to anyone @HindwareApp @Hindware_India
