Been 4 days since I raised a complaint for internet breakdown. No one has come to fix the issue. Now I am getting a message to reschedule and earliest data is 6th August which is 3 days hence. This terrible. Can someone look into this? Screenshot attached. @JioCare

Half knight's tour. Asked in India quiz a decade back. For more such questions land up at Qfiesta 2026 at Music academy. 💪
In 14th century, the scholar & poet Vedānta Deśika (birth name Veṅkaṭanātha) was challenged by a rival scholar to a intellectual duel. The rival boasted that Desika could not match his poetic speed & challenged him to compose 1000 distinct Sanskrit verses in a single night. Deśika accepted the challenge. But rather than just writing simple verse, he embedded complex mathematical algos & chess movement patterns directly into the poetic meter, creating a masterpiece titled the Pādukā Sahasram. In the 30th chapter of the work (Chitra-paddhati), Deśika constructed a mathematical puzzle known in chess as the Knight’s Tour, centuries before Western mathematicians like Leonhard Euler formalized it (I am not saying, he invented it because earlier Indian examples of knight’s-tour bandhas exist...e.g., Rudrata’s Kāvyālaṅkāra ~9th century; Ratnākara’s Haravijaya ~9th century): Anyway, verse #929 consists of 32 Sanskrit syllables arranged on an 4x8 chessboard grid (filling 32 spaces row by row). If we read the syllables in standard sequence, it forms a grammatically flawless verse praising the divine sandals of Lord Ranganatha. If we move across the board following the exact L-shaped jumps of a Chess Knight starting from the top-left square & visiting all 32 squares, the sequence of syllables spells out Verse #930! Verse #930 is an entirely new, fully functional Sanskrit verse with its own distinct rhythm, precise grammar & a whole new poetic meaning! This cryptographic feat is possible because of Sanskrit’s structural architecture: Words are built using modular base roots (dhātus) & suffixes (pratyayas), meaning word order in a sentence is extraordinarily flexible while retaining absolute grammatical precision. Sanskrit poetry relies on strictly counted syllable patterns (chandas), allowing exact 1:1 matrix mappings onto geometric shapes like chessboards / circles (padma-bandha) / wheels (chakra-bandha).

I support this decision. I urge CM Suvendu Adhikary to award the contracts for the Nabanna/Writers Building, Presidency University, Jadavpur University and all other government college and office canteens also to ISKCON. Why should ministers, officers and government functionaries be deprived of the delivious Sattvik food that Bengal's kids are going to enjoy?
Thank you to the Hon’ble Chief Minister, Shri @SuvenduWB ji, for entrusting ISKCON with the responsibility of serving mid-day meals in Kolkata schools. Through its mid-day meal initiative, the Annamrita Foundation, ISKCON serves more than 1 million nutritious hot meals daily in government schools across India. Our kitchens maintain five-star standards, and we provide wholesome hot vegetarian meals to students every day. Hare Krishna 🙏

One past mistakes that needs remedying. Any organisation with a 150 crore office in Delhi sprawled across over 3.75 acre with three 13-storey towers and 300 rooms, has to have registrations, accounts and audits. Allowing RSS to be supra-legal is the biggest illegality.
"RSS doesn't need registration, Hindu Dharma doesn't need to be registered. RSS is not secretive , we openly tell people about the Sangh, govt is aware of the RSS & hasn't asked us to register in 100 years" Sarsanghchalak Dr Mohan Bhagwat on RSS registeration debate.

Imagine taking charge of a nation left bankrupt by colonialism, bleeding from Partition, buried under mass poverty, then building dams, IITs, AIIMS, ISRO & PSUs, only to be compared to a leader who counts medals and gifting Melody as nation-building

Whoever has a visa, continue working... don't listen to this guy! His own employees are suffering!! If u have plans of coming back, make as much money as possible before you get here 🙏
Once again, my appeal to Indians in America on a visa. Please come home. Even if you feel it is hardship and sacrifice, self-respect should dictate your course. Let's make Bharat proud 🙏

I have always held & said Dravidian ideology is dead long ago, & Tamils want an alternative to both DMK & ADMK. Under Annamalai BJP was emerging in 2024 but it again went for short cut in 2026. If this wild card entry happens, it only means that Dravidian ideology is dead.

Amma wishes you Eid Mubarak. Amma, Smt. Meenakshi Srinivasan, an 80 year old Brahmin woman, has been hosting “Amma’s Iftar” in Bangalore for the last four years. Born into an Iyer family and raised in Coimbatore, she lived much of her life in Calcutta. Along the way she picked up Bengali with ease, developed a quiet fondness for football, and carried herself with a certain old-world clarity about how things ought to be. At home, her son says there are a few “rules” — some firm, some gently enforced with a smile: Always Prestige, never Hawkins. Always Rafi, never Kishore. Always Messi, never Ronaldo. And always harmony, no room for hatred. So, when she heard about some Muslims being prevented from performing Namaz or holding Iftar, she decided to host iftar every year. This year, I had the privilege to join her unusual iftar. The ceremony was unusual, but the underlying sentiment was not. This inchoate but deeply held belief in love and co-existence is the foundation of our secularism. This has held India together. In Amma I see Mother India. In her iftar I see a glimpse of India’s swadharma. I join Amma in wishing you all: Eid Mubarak!

There is. Can you afford it?
Slightly disappointed that there's no connecting flight from Bangalore Airport to Bangalore.

OROP is a grt example of sectional trade union interest trumping natl interest. Similar to labour laws and manufacturing in India, Datta Samant and textiles in Mumbai. Funnily, generations of "left wing" govts kept OROP on ice, b4 India's first unapologetic RW govt adopted it;)

You could have just tweeted about your father's treatment . RIP. But you had to bring in someone totally unrelated to make a tangential point. This is so sad.
My father was diagnosed with stage 3-4 esophagus cancer in late 2010 & treated at Max Saket under Dr. Hooda. Sadly, we lost him in 2012. During our tough time, I read news of Sonia Gandhi suffering from cancer & visiting USA often for treatment—never knew details, & she went abroad several times after. Wish her long life, but can’t help wondering: What kind of advanced care did she receive that my father couldn’t, or were those trips for other reasons?

I’m convinced anyone who thinks Rahman’s work stopped being great in the 90’s was also last happy in the 90’s.

1. He has blocked me so I can't reply. 2. He doesn't understand the meaning of "relatively". 😊
Bali - hindu majority, hence free. Lots of restrictions on non-muslims in other indonesian states, with sharia imposed on all in Aceh. Malaysia - non-muslims are dhimmis, with state benefits given to malay muslims but denied to them. Their temples are regularly demolished.

Malaysian Hindus are legally second class as per Bhumiputera policy. Often controversies arise when a partner in a marriage converts to Islam, as the children are often legally coerced, and it’s difficult to reverse legally. Indonesia, as per Pancasila policy officially declares that the national ideology is monotheism, so Hindu communities must conform to monotheism as per pancasila.
