“Bachpan Mein Galtiyan Hoti Hai..” - PM Modi with his latest selfie video says he wants to forgive the students who abused him , not have them face legal cases. “Bachon Ko Rah Dekhana Hamara kaam hai”

Sanjay Garg is about the coolest guy I’ve met in #Delhi. So it’s great to see his textile label #RawMango showcase at the @austmus. His designs alongside the rich South Asian collections represent a masterclass in bridging heritage with contemporary design. @VOGUEIndia

Lucknow is synonymous with a vibrant culture, at the core of which is a great culinary culture. I am glad that UNESCO has recognised this aspect of Lucknow and I call upon people from around the world to visit Lucknow and discover its uniqueness.
Lucknow has been designated as a UNESCO Creative City of Gastronomy, a recognition of its distinguished culinary heritage and invaluable contribution to India’s rich gastronomic traditions.
This honour enhances Lucknow’s global stature, positioning it as a premier destination for food and culture, and opens new avenues for tourism promotion, culture-led economic growth, heritage conservation, and international collaboration through the UNESCO Creative Cities Network.
Guided by the visionary leadership of Hon’ble Prime Minister Shri @narendramodi ji, India’s timeless traditions, culture, and values continue to attain unprecedented recognition and respect on the global stage.

महाराष्ट्राचे जागतिक भागीदारीकडे मार्गक्रमण!
मुख्यमंत्री देवेंद्र फडणवीस व ऑस्ट्रेलियाचे भारतातील उच्चायुक्त फिलिप ग्रीन ओएएम यांच्या अध्यक्षतेखाली आज बीकेसी, मुंबई येथे 'आयएबीसीए ग्लोबल लीडर्स फोरम 2025' अंतर्गत 'महाराष्ट्र-ऑस्ट्रेलिया इंडस्ट्री राऊंड टेबल' कॉन्फरन्स पार पडली.
मुख्यमंत्री देवेंद्र फडणवीस म्हणाले की, महाराष्ट्र हे देशातील सर्वात उद्योगस्नेही व गुंतवणुकीसाठी सर्वोत्तम राज्य आहे. गुंतवणूकदारांना आणि उद्योजकांना पोषक इकोसिस्टिम देण्यासाठी राज्य शासन नेहमीच तत्पर आहे.
राज्य सरकार विविध क्षेत्रांसाठी नवीन व परिपूर्ण धोरणे तयार करत आहे. येत्या काळात 14 क्षेत्रांसाठी धोरणे जाहीर केली जातील, ज्यामध्ये सेवा क्षेत्रालाही विशेष स्थान असेल. उद्योजकांना आवश्यक परवानग्या त्वरित मिळाव्यात यासाठी 'मैत्री पोर्टल' हे खऱ्या अर्थाने 'सिंगल विंडो सिस्टीम' म्हणून कार्यरत आहे.
मुख्यमंत्री फडणवीस यांनी नमूद केले की, 'इज ऑफ डूइंग बिजनेस'मध्ये सुधारणा, नवीन गुंतवणूक संकल्पना, राज्यातील एक्सप्रेसवेचे जाळे, वाढवण बंदराच्या माध्यमातून सागरी व्यापाराची संधी, सांडपाणी व्यवस्थापन, सौर ऊर्जा, पायाभूत सुविधा अशा क्षेत्रांत गुंतवणुकीच्या मोठ्या संधी उपलब्ध आहेत.
यावेळी मुख्यमंत्री फडणवीस यांनी सांगितले की, पुणे येथील नवीन विमानतळ आणि जलद वाहतुकीसाठी उभारले जाणारे पायाभूत सुविधा प्रकल्प शहराच्या विकासाला गती देतील. तसेच, नवी मुंबईतील एज्यु सिटीमध्ये जागतिक विद्यापीठांचे कॅम्पस उभारले जात असून, ऑस्ट्रेलियातील कर्टीन विद्यापीठ व गडचिरोलीतील गोंडवाना विद्यापीठाच्या सहकार्याने गडचिरोली हे देशाचे स्टील हब होईल.
या राऊंड टेबल कॉन्फरन्सपूर्वी झालेल्या संवादात मुख्यमंत्री फडणवीस म्हणाले की, राज्य सरकार उद्योग आणि गुंतवणूकदारांसाठी नेहमीच सकारात्मक निर्णय घेते. महाराष्ट्र जागतिक भागीदारीत आघाडी घेईल, असा विश्वास देखील त्यांनी यावेळी व्यक्त केला.
यावेळी मंत्री जयकुमार रावल व इतर मान्यवर उपस्थित होते.

A powerful moment that assured us of the Government’s unflinching commitment towards and pride in our multicultural identity. Thank you @JacintaAllanMP @VictoriaPolice for fulfilling your promise of protection today and keeping us all safe.
When I spoke to hundreds of members of our multicultural community at a gala to celebrate them, I had to address the marches happening in CBDs around the country this weekend. I told these Victorians that here, everyone matters, everyone belongs, everyone is equal. Everyone deserves to be safe in our state and free of hate.

In a landmark moment for India’s cultural heritage, the sacred Piprahwa Relics, linked to Lord Buddha have returned home after 127 years!
This was achieved through a unique public-private partnership between @MinOfCultureGoI and Pirojsha Godrej of @GodrejIndGroup.(1/4)

Melbourne’s front door …. Once the Old Customs House, Enterprize Park, Yarro Yarro Falls, now Immigration Museum and its Neighbourhood Circle. Always Wurundjeri Country. Visit the Museum @immigration_mv and be wrapped in stories and layered histories of Marvellous Melbourne.
A victory with “healthy helpings of humility and gratitude” says Jim Chalmers, Treasurer. Pragmatic, forward looking, problem solving leadership style of our Prime Minister is the wind beneath their wings. Loving the vibe of this partnership. @AlboMP @JEChalmers #insiders
Over the weekend, I was spotted waiting patiently for customer service, a staff member at @Bunnings walked up and offered me a coffee while I waited. A thoughtful but priceless gesture that created a joyful & memorable moment of engagement. Great customer service can be simple!

It’s not often we see two young boys, under 21s, supporting research into a women’s health issue, in collaboration with Epworth Hospital. I was proud to lend them my support towards better diagnosis, treatment and care for Endometriosis.
