Dussehra reminds us that the battle between good and evil isn’t confined to mythology. It’s fought every day. In the choices we make. The values we uphold. And the courage we summon to do what’s right, even when it isn’t easy. Because the toughest battles we fight are often the ones we fight within ourselves… Wishing everyone a very Happy Dussehra! 🙏

I bow low to our intrepid sportspersons, who truly clawed back our dignity with this outcome… 🙏🏽👏🏽👏🏽👏🏽 And now, for the next edition of the Asian Games, we need a “Mission 3”: To make sure we finish ahead of Korea. And then, on to greater summits. 🙂

Gold Medallists at the Asian Games after 44 years. That’s just data. This video is the emotion. Party on, ladies. 🇮🇳🇮🇳🇮🇳

Lord Ganesh comes home today. The remover of obstacles. But perhaps the message isn’t to wish for a life without obstacles. It’s to find the wisdom, courage and good humour to get past them. And when it’s time for him to leave, another reminder: know when to let go and move on. Ganpati Bappa Morya! Happy Ganesh Chaturthi to you all 🙏 And who else could be my #MondayMotivation today?

A final bell. A lifetime of service. I only just came across this moving moment from Bishop Cotton Girls’ School in Bengaluru, nearly a year after it happened. A school attendant, affectionately known as “Das Uncle,” was retiring after 38 years of service. On his final day, he checked his watch and rang the large school bell one last time. The students counted every stroke & then erupted in cheers and applause, joined by their teachers. The pride on his face & the depth of his bond with the school are unmistakable. I was moved too. When our schools nurture dignity and respect for everyone who serves their community, whatever their role, there is every reason to be optimistic about our future. 👏🏽👏🏽👏🏽 #MondayMotivation
