Gurpatwant Singh Pannun has no traction in Punjab, no one gives a damn about what he advocates, Punjab is worried about jobs creation, farm distress, scary ground water exploitation, migration to foreign shores, demographical changes, mounting debt; there are more pressing issues

India was once called a nation of call centers and it sounded like an insult. But quietly, it trained millions of young Indians to speak fluent English and dream beyond their hometowns. That was phase one.
Then we became the IT back office of the world. And it created a generation of engineers who could write code, manage complex systems, and deliver at global scale. That was phase two.
Today, we’re in phase three. Indian startups are solving for India and it looks chaotic from the outside. These are signs of a country solving its own problems first, before solving the world’s.
Sure, we should go more deep tech and we will i think. But first we need more patient capital, more research led universities & more talent density. Deep tech ecosystem can't be built in a hackathon. It will be built by million engineers who get obsessed in solving billion daily problems.

Late Dr. Manmohan Singh Ji’s wife, Gursharan Kaur, and daughter, Amrit Kaur, recited Kirtan at their home. This was Dr. Manmohan Singh Ji’s favorite Shabad, and his wife shared that he would always recite it. The video was shared by Advocate HS Phoolka.

Hello, Sidhuji, I am happy that your wife is now in remission from cancer, and my best wishes to you and a healthy future for your family.
But please stop behaving like a science and health illiterate. I know you are emotional and emotions make people's thoughts go blind. But there is absolutely NO EVIDENCE that any specific diet or herb or Ayurvedic balderdash can prevent, control or cure cancer.
And please stop sharing such nonsensical diets to mislead people from taking realistic healthcare.
Doctors always give the worst prognosis to prepare and sensitize patients and families. That does not mean that they have let go. Doctors always do their best to help them heal. This is exactly what all the doctors you spoke to told you. They were rational in their discussions with you, but practical and logical in their actions when it came to treatment. You should have known better.
You should be ashamed of not mentioning the real reason for your wife going into remission from a terrible cancer. Dr. Rupinder Batra (Former Tata Memorial Oncologist) at Waryam Singh Hospital, Yamunanagar was a key person who treated your wife with the best that medical science can offer for that stage of disease....but you and all the other health-illiterates and the YouTube videos you watched made you do all those nonsense diet and neem leaves and turmeric and what not on the side, and without thinking critically, you decided that it was what helped your wife.
You are firing on all the wrong cylinders here.
Embrace the value of science in promoting healthcare and improving lives of cancer patients instead of appealing to tradition, culture and nationalism. And stop using your wife's strong journey in fighting cancer to shamelessly promote Ayurveda and diet.
Studies have shown that complementary and alternative medicines and practices KILL CANCER PATIENTS MORE than it can delusionally save. Educate yourself.

A women's cricket team won a tournament. I repeat, a women's team won and a big city is out celebrating that trophy. This is a dynamic change, a shift, and as historic as it gets, the best omen in not only India but the whole of South Asia. Cricket is making a strong case for a tool bridging the gender gap after being proven to be one of the best diplomatic tools. Onwards and upwards girls.

Superb context of @IndiGo6E’s Food & Beverage revenues as shared by @grovermanu :
*Indigo F&B sales* revenue (FY'23): Rs 762 Cr
*Barbeque Nation* revenue (FY'22): Rs 761 Cr
🛫 Indigo's In-flight sales, mainly Food & Beverages, soared to Rs 762 Cr for FY'23, even surpassing Barbeque Nation's entire FY'22 revenue.
Let's decode its impact for the airline 💡
*Customer Experience Perspective:*
• Total F&B revenue = Rs 760 Cr
• Avg. order value = Rs 250
• Passengers ordering/year ≈ 3.04 Cr
• Passengers ordering/day ≈ 83,000
• Daily Indigo flights = 1,800
• Passengers ordering food/flight ≈ 46
• Avg. Passengers in an Indigo flight = 160
~30% of passengers consume F&B items in a flight.
*Financial Perspective:*
• Assumed Gross Margin on F&B ≈ 70%
• Profit from F&B sales ≈ Rs 532 Cr
Indigo's F&B sales profit is even higher than Jubilant FoodWorks total profit for FY'23 (356 Cr)
While many airlines face survival challenges, Indigo thrives with over Rs 500 Cr profit solely from F&B sales.

The top 1% of academics, the kids in school who always followed rules & and obeyed superiors, always did stuff on time, and had an inherent fear of compliance. People who were introverts. Yet studious.
Such people love the discipline of Singapore. Or any country in the developed world. Where following rules is incentivised.
Disincentives to follow rules is what makes talent migrate. A car jumping a red signal without any repercussion, while you wait, is disincentivising rule following.
