🚨 RCB PLAYED SPECTATOR ROLE THROUGHOUT THE TRADE WINDOW. 🚨
- RCB seem to be the lone IPL team that has stayed silent during the trade window because they have a settled squad. (Indian Express).

An innings and 315-run victory for Karnataka, against Assam. With this bonus point win we leapfrog to the top of the table from Group B with 16 points and end the first leg of the #RanjiTrophy, on a positive note.

There is ONE star in our Solar System.
The Milky Way contains hundreds of billions of stars.
The observable universe contains hundreds of billions, possibly trillions, of galaxies.
Some galaxies contain hundreds of billions of stars of their own.
Andromeda, our nearest major galactic neighbour, is 2.5 million light-years away.
Now put your life into perspective.
You are worrying about what your boss said, who disrespected you, and whether society is conspiring against you.
On a cosmic scale, your existence is almost unimaginably insignificant.
The universe does not revolve around you. Most of what consumes your mind will never matter beyond your lifetime.
Stop living as though every insult is a catastrophe.
You are a brief conscious moment in an ancient, incomprehensibly vast universe.
Live well. Think clearly. Let go of the trivial.

Haven’t seen batting as good in a long time. What a chase by the boys. DK & Anvay 🤌🏼. To chase close to 360 in just 45 odd overs. Into the quarters we go. #vinoomankad

You are not going to get perfect partner.
You are not going to get perfect kids.
You are not going to get perfect house.
You are not going to get perfect health.
You are not going to get perfect job.
You are not going to get perfect money.
You are not going to get perfect parents.
You are not going to get perfect relatives.
You are not going to get perfect society.
You are not going to get perfect day or night.
You are not going to get perfect love.
You are not going to get perfect business.
Adaptations with imperfection is life.
Adaptations with incomplete is life.
Nature is imperfect.
Universe is imperfect.
God is imperfect.
"Perfection is a scam", it will give you ANXIETY.
Move on with whatever you get.
Don't waste life in anxiety and regrets.

A historic milestone for Chitradurga! 💧
The Upper Bhadra Project’s trial-run waters have now reached Gonuru Lake, the terminal lake in Chitradurga district.
Water released from the Bhadra Reservoir through the Chitradurga Branch Canal has travelled across the district, bringing fresh hope to farmers and drought-hit communities.
This marks a major step towards strengthening irrigation and water security in Chitradurga. 🌾💧

#Bengaluru: Dr Sharan Prakash Patil being felicitated by his supporters on becoming a minister in DK Shivakumar’s cabinet.
Hailing from Sedam in Kalaburagi district, he had earlier served as medical education minister in the Siddaramaiah govt.

I spoke to Thiru Vijay and congratulated him on TVK’s spectacular result.
This mandate reflects the rising voice of youth which cannot, and will not, be ignored.
My heartfelt thanks to the Congress workers of Tamil Nadu and Puducherry for their hard work and support.
I reiterate that the Congress party will continue to protect and serve the people of Tamil Nadu and Puducherry.

I have got a double century? So what do I do now? Wave? Ok then…”
The charming humility of Gundappa Vishwanath as the maestro waves to the crowd after having reached a double century against England at Chennai in the 1981-82 series.
Interestingly, it was only the second time “Vishy” got 200 after actually starting his first class career with a brilliant 230 in 1967-68.
@scyldberry’s caption to the picture in his brilliant Cricketwallah read:
“True modesty: 32-year-old Viswanath acknowledges the applause for his double century. Besides being the highest score by an Indian against England, his 222 was his personal best since he made 230 on his debut in first-class cricket in 1967-8. Viswanath had shaved off his beard and given up smoking, as well as invoking divine aid, in the attempt to end a year-long bad run.”
We were willing him to break Mankad’s record of highest score, but he got 222.
Honestly, it didn’t matter. It there was something Vishwanath taught us, it was that art and ability could not be defined by numbers.

BJP didn’t conquer India. Regional parties handed it to them.
TMC said “Congress is irrelevant” in 2021, BJP is now winning Bengal.
SP said “Congress is a burden” in UP, BJP has won UP 2 times in a row.
AAP said “we are the alternative”, they couldn’t hold Delhi, couldn’t hold Punjab’s narrative, and got decimated the moment BJP got serious.
Left said “Congress is finished”, Kerala just buried the Left and handed it to Congress on a platter.
DMK ran Tamil Nadu like a family business, and a new party ate their youth vote overnight.
See the pattern?
Every regional party that spent more energy keeping Congress out of the alliance than keeping BJP out of power is now either begging for relevance or watching BJP redraw their electoral map with SIR and Delimitation.
The Third Front fantasy has one consistent track record: it has NEVER defeated BJP. Not once. Not anywhere.
But Congress?
Congress held Karnataka. Congress flipped Telangana. Congress swept Himachal. Congress just demolished the Left in Kerala; UDF’s biggest win in decades.
Congress is the reason BJP doesn’t have a 2/3rd majority in Parliament today.
And they did all of this while every regional satrap was busy holding press conferences about how “Congress is a sinking ship.”
The ship didn’t sink. It’s the only one still sailing against BJP.
Regional parties don’t have a BJP problem. They have an ego problem.
And that ego problem has a name: Third Front Politics.
You either unite under the only national party that can take BJP head-on, or you find your party’s Wikipedia page updated to past tense.
Congress isn’t asking for charity. History is. 🇮🇳

Read the insightful piece written by CPP Chairperson, Smt. Sonia Gamdhi ji on why the real issue is delimitation and caste census.
Excerpts here:-
“The Prime Minister is making appeals to Opposition parties to support Bills that the government wants to bulldoze in a special session of Parliament when the election campaign in Tamil Nadu and West Bengal will be at its peak. There can be only one reason for the extraordinary hurry, which is to derive political advantage and place the Opposition on the defensive.
The Prime Minister is, as usual, being economical with the truth.
The Parliament passed the Nari Shakti Vandan Adhiniyam, 2023 unanimously in September 2023 during a special session. The Adhiniyam introduced Article 334-A in the Constitution which mandated one-third reservation for women in the Lok Sabha and Vidhan Sabhas, scheduled to come into effect after the completion of the next Census and the Census-based delimitation process. The Opposition had not asked for this condition. In fact, the Leader of the Opposition in the Rajya Sabha, Shri Mallikarjun Kharge, had forcefully demanded that the reservation provision be implemented from the 2024 Lok Sabha elections itself. For reasons best known to itself, the government did not agree.
Now, we are given to understand that Article 334-A will be amended to make women’s reservation applicable from 2029 itself. Why did it take the Prime Minister 30 months to make his U-turn?”

What a heartwarming display of kindness in Bengaluru at 3 AM ❤️
Aishwarya had just landed at the airport and travelled by BMTC bus to Kadugodi, only to find herself stranded and alone with no taxi available.
Two compassionate strangers showed true humanity: the caring BMTC bus conductor stayed with her until she felt safe, and a thoughtful Rapido driver safely dropped her home refusing any excess fare and putting her well-being first.
In a moment when fear could have taken over, this kindness restored faith in our city.
Bengaluru, you continue to shine with such beautiful souls. This is exactly why we love and cherish you ❤️
