What's Xi Jinping's intention to send Chinese to Bangladesh, record slum and train videos, and present them as India? Check the thread below. This has been exposed by Bangladeshi media.
Almost 150 Chinese WeChat streamers came to Dhaka, Bangladesh & spent the entire day livestreaming while showing the city's slums. When locals noticed the unusual number they started investigating why so many of them were doing this. Turns out, they were presenting it as India

In 1950, a newly independent India was running low on food. India requested the US for help. It wasn't provided immediately. After much debate in the US congress on why they should help India, Truman signed the India food relief act to provide India with $190 million of assistance to help it buy US wheat. But that US wheat came with a weed. The weed known as Parthenium or also called "Congress grass." This weed destroyed any plant around it. Till today, India has not been able to get rid of this weed. Some 35 million hectares of arable Indian farmland has been laid waste by this weed. Including, and as far as, Andaman & Nicobar Islands. This weed is one of the biggest causes of losses for Indian agriculture and productivity. American experts still say it came into India "accidentally."

Here are children from Bengaluru to Bidar, eager to learn more languages at school, contrary to what Congress and other vested interests want to restrict. The government must listen to parents, teachers and students before making decisions that affect their education and future.

Clarification on E20 petrol: Reports of 26–31% ethanol content at certain Karnataka fuel outlets are not supported by testing conducted as per prescribed standards. All 893 samples tested across 27 States and UTs, including 56 from Karnataka, were found compliant with the prescribed 19–21% ethanol range. IOCL, BPCL and HPCL have sought transparent, joint testing with the State Government to ensure an independent and scientifically verifiable assessment. We remain committed to fuel quality, regulatory compliance and consumer confidence. Please rely on verified information and official sources. @HardeepSPuri @PetroleumMin @TheSureshGopi @Secretary_MoPNG @neerajmittalias #E20 #FuelQuality #BPCL #IOCL #HPCL

Mr. Chief Minister, Since you don’t acknowledge nuances of federal cooperation, let me explain, Bengaluru Metro follows a 20:20:60 funding model: 20% each from Centre and State, and 60% through loans from international agencies, backed by the Centre’s sovereign guarantee. Without the Centre’s backing, these projects would not even take off. Considering all the approved phases Bangalore Metro Phase 1, Phase 2, Phase 2A & 2B and Phase 3 Government of India has committed Rs 41,557 crores for construction of various metro projects in Bengaluru . Whereas Government of Karnataka has committed Rs. 36,332 crores of rupees for the construction of Bangalore Metro. Which international lender would fund a project based on the guarantee of your Pauper Sarkara?
CM @DKShivakumar questioned BJP’s connection to Bengaluru Metro inauguration, saying PM was invited by the state govt to inaugurate Pink Line on Nov 13. He said Metro is being developed using public money and loans. He added that he would raise certain issues with the PM during his visit.

Heard angry men speaking in BMTC: "Snatch from men. Give women" "No seat for paying men" "Who asked for free buses" "Buses are always crowded" Best answer for men would be to Vote them out in 2028
The best response to the irrational BMTC bus fare hike must be encourage ONLY women to travel in it for free! MEN should boycott BMTC What say Bengaluru?

Diwali has always held a special place in my heart and has been my favourite festival for as long as I can remember. There is something about the magic of lights, the sparkle and the fireworks that fills me with a sense of wonder and joy. While in space, I captured this video and couldn’t help noticing the flashes of lightning dancing across the Earth below. Looking down from space, they reminded me of nature’s very own fireworks — a beautiful, unexpected reminder that the universe has its own way of celebrating light. It felt particularly special to come across this sight, and I couldn’t think of a more fitting day to share it. Wishing all my friends and their families a very Happy Dhanteras. May this festive season fill your homes and hearts with light, happiness, good health and prosperity. #shux #space #shubhanshushukla #india #axiom4

Apologies where they are due: last night, I should not have bucketed all Indian doctors into one single box. We work with so many of them. Even my elder brother is one of them. All my emotion last night was directed at a few influencer doctors, who are more influencers than doctors. They did not read our research in detail, and spread twisted facts to call something new a scam. They get views by piling on us. They wouldn't do that to a startup doing the same thing from some other first-time founder, because it would not get them views. That's actually more a reflection of their petty mindset, than other doctors, our country, or our team. Happy Diwali everyone! Have a good one. Keep building. We have a long way to go.

For some, Karnataka is the land of their ancestors. For others, it becomes the land of their dreams. Both can proudly call it home. Kannada is what anchors us. Karnataka is what brings us together. There is something beautiful about the journey from being a stranger, a 'non-Kannadiga', to embracing Karnataka as one's own and proudly saying, "ನಾನೂ ಕನ್ನಡಿಗ!" Much like the metamorphosis of the Southern Birdwing, Karnataka's magnificent state butterfly, this transformation happens naturally, through affection, shared experiences and a growing sense of belonging. I have shared my thoughts on what it means to be a Kannadiga today, and how this identity continues to evolve while staying rooted in our language, culture and heritage. Do give it a read! deccanherald.com/india/karna…

कांग्रेस की वोट चोरी, कैमरे में कैद... हाल ही में कर्नाटक में बैलेट पेपर से हुए MLC चुनावों में कांग्रेस की वोट चोरी कैमरे में कैद हो गई। एक महिला जिसका नाम न तो वोटर लिस्ट में था और न ही वह ग्रेजुएट होने के नाते वोट देने के लायक थी वह कथित तौर पर एक कांग्रेस ज़िला अध्यक्ष की तरफ़ से फर्जी वोट (किसी अन्य का वोट डालते हुए) करते हुए पकड़ी गई। भाजपा सांसद @Tejasvi_Surya ने वीडियो जारी कर लगाया गंभीर आरोप

Rajamata Pramoda Devi Wadiyar has just set the record straight: the government never “gave” the Wadiyar family a place in Mysuru Palace the residential portion is theirs, protected by court order, not charity. A sharp rebuttal to Yathindra Siddaramaiah, who claimed they were merely “left a small portion to stay in, like their father’s property.” #MysuruPalace

80% of BMTC commuters are short distance riders. That’s why they are targeted. While most Metro riders take long distance trips and therefore, Metro prices are highest for long distances. Whether you’re short distance commuter or long distance, DK ain’t sparing you.
🚨 Bengaluru bus commuters face up to 67% hike on short rides as BMTC minimum fare matches Metro at Rs 10 The minimum BMTC bus fare has increased from Rs 6 to Rs 10, bringing it on par with Namma Metro's minimum fare. @ChristinMP_ with details moneycontrol.com/news/india/…

If anyone chooses public transport in Bengaluru, punish them with fare hikes of up to 71% in Metro & 67% in BMTC buses. Relocate bus shelters away from convenient locations, delay Metro projects & insist on end-to-end double-decker flyovers. Is this how Bengaluru plans to encourage public transport? @CMofKarnataka
People will move to their own private vehicles, public transport should not become a burden and expect to reduce traffic at the same time. We will sadly experience more traffic due to these hikes.
