We've reached the stage where godi media explains the benefits of pollution. "Pollution builds a protective layer and blocks direct sunlight. In Europe, there is no pollution. So, sunlight reaches directly and burns the skin." – Rubika Liyaquat

Indian journalism has officially peaked. A Republic TV anchor missed out on a Modi selfie, watched "pollution expert" Rubika Liyaquat bag hers, and spent his next broadcast roasting her. 😭 Unreal clownery. 🫡 Standards are now measured in front-camera megapixels.

I get why @GBA_office filled the potholes last night and made the roads even - it's so that the SPGs can run alongside Modi's motorcade without rolling their ankles and injuring themselves. For instance, everywhere else, the roads are not even and the pothole filling is a half-assed job with uneven improper roads done by harebrained men who would literally much rather do anything else other than their one job. And obviously as a taxpayer and resident of the city, why would the govt and @GBA_office care about me or my needs? My car suspension and my spine can get wrecked for all they care.

Welcome to Karnataka PM Modi avare. (People here don't trend #GoBackModi like they do in neighboring state😁) State has consistently elected double digit no's of BJP MPs since 1991. But the question is: Where is E-way? Where's AIIMS? Where's RRTS? Where's HSR? Where's IIT?

This is your routine duty, not an achievement to showcase to @PMOIndia. Bengaluru's commuters suffer daily. Please do this work across the entire city for the public, not for political visibility. @comm_blr_south @GBAChiefComm @KBGBlrDevUpdate @krishnabgowda

@narendramodi ji pls visit Bengaluru more often so that our non-existent civic authority wakes up from deep slumber to clean up the city & also proudly put out self-congratulatory videos, as though doing a supposed regular duty is a great achievement!

They promised cheaper fuel. They gave you E31: lower mileage, higher repair bills, and the same old price.

ಕರ್ನಾಟಕ ರಾಜ್ಯಕ್ಕೆ ನ್ಯಾಯ ಕೇಳಿದ್ದಕ್ಕೆ ಸಿಕ್ಕ ಬಹುಮಾನ - ನನ್ನ ಭಾಷಣ ಕಟ್! ಬೆಂಗಳೂರು ಅಭಿವೃದ್ಧಿ ಸಚಿವನಿಗೆ ಮೆಟ್ರೋ ಉದ್ಘಾಟನೆಯಲ್ಲಿ ಮಾತನಾಡಲು ಇಲ್ಲ ಅವಕಾಶ. ಸಭಾ ಕಾರ್ಯಕ್ರಮದ ಡ್ರಾಫ್ಟ್ ನಲ್ಲಿ ನನ್ನ ಮಾತಿಗೆ ಅವಕಾಶ ನಿಗದಿಯಾಗಿತ್ತು. ನಿನ್ನೆ ರಾತ್ರಿ ಬಂದ ಅಂತಿಮ ಪಟ್ಟಿಯಲ್ಲಿ ಬೆಂಗಳೂರು ಅಭಿವೃದ್ಧಿ ಸಚಿವರ ಮಾತನ್ನು ಕಟ್ ಮಾಡಲಾಗಿದೆ. ಬಹುತೇಕ ಬಂಡವಾಳ ಖರ್ಚು ನಮ್ಮದು. ಕರ್ನಾಟಕಕ್ಕೆ ನ್ಯಾಯಯುತ ಪಾಲು ಕೇಳಿದರೆ ಈ ರೀತಿ ಶಿಕ್ಷೆ. ಪರವಾಗಿಲ್ಲ, ನೀವು ನನ್ನ ಮಾತನ್ನು ಕಟ್ ಮಾಡಬಹುದು. ಆದರೆ ಬೆಂಗಳೂರಿನ ಅಭಿವೃದ್ಧಿಗೆ ಕೆಲಸ ಮಾಡೋದನ್ನ ನಿಲ್ಲಿಸಲಿಕ್ಕೆ ಆಗೋದಿಲ್ಲ. ಇನ್ನೂ ಹೆಚ್ಚಿನ ಪರಿಶ್ರಮದಿಂದ ಕೆಲಸ ಮಾಡುತ್ತೇವೆ.

The government banned the use of sugarcane for ethanol production because it was driving up sugar prices. Ethanol producers shifted to maize instead. Maize constitutes a major portion of cattle feed, and its increased demand is now contributing to higher prices of eggs and milk. So, you're not only paying more for adulterated petrol and getting lower mileage, but also spending more on food. And to top it all, you're still not getting clean air, which was supposedly one of the reasons for promoting ethanol blending in the first place.

My respect for Social Reformers of past has grown in multiples . It must have been so tough for them to convince society against Sati, Child marriage and women exploitation. We can’t convince people to stop firecrackers for their own lungs . Salute to them🫡

#PinkLine Opening a new line is good news and it’s great to see a few km added to our metro network 🎉🥳. But 9 years for a 7.5 km stretch? That’s 0.83 km a year - SHAME and shows the level of inefficiency. No one will take the blame, but everyone will rush to take the credit

Read that again. You earn for 12 months. But if ₹4 out of every ₹10 goes in taxes, you're working almost 5 months just to pay the government. And the worst part? You still pay GST when you spend what's left.
🚨Ashneer Grover says out of every ₹10 you earn, the government keeps ₹4. That means you’re working 5 months a year only for the government.
