I believe the Sion bridge is now ready. If that is indeed so, I hope they open it at the earliest without waiting for availability of people to inaugurate it. It has caused a lot of hardship and the earlier it eases, the better it will be for the public.

The absolute levels of shamelessness some people have. Disgusting. First spat huge fountains of paan straight out of the window. Then opened the door and didn’t same WHILE MOVING. Then did this…. Disgusting. The sticker on the car says it all. Yuck @BJP4Mumbai - YUCK! 🤡

Text: New Tata Aeris launched at ₹5.29 lakh (starting price for manual petrol). It keeps Tata’s safety promise. As always a cool new trick from Tata to communicate this. Watch this video. 🚘 So, a gimmick or good marketing? You decide. SVP

Hey @airindia are you a zero empathy airline? This man missed his flight due to a last-minute gate change, which wasn’t announced. You are clearly at fault and your on ground staff is barely acknowledging him. Not okay. 1/2

He is still at Gate 43 at the Mumbai Airport. Can you please still send someone and assist him. Not out of obligation but moral responsibility. And ask your staff to behave better with passengers. 2/2

This video is part ASMR and part design showcase! And well maybe part feature list scorecard too! Starring the new MG Hector Tomahawk EV. The PHEV will have a lot of the same when it also comes in soon. SVP

Hindus are incredibly insecure people, lol. A Muslim female IPS officer said "Assalamu alaikum" in a video and it rattled them so badly that she was transferred as disciplinary action. Meanwhile, Hindu IPS officers openly participate in Hindu religious ceremonies and organise Hindu events inside their offices, with no comparable outrage. This is Senior IPS officer C.V. Anand after taking oath as DGP Telangana, with Vedic chants being recited in his office. There are hundreds of similar examples but Muslims didn't outrage over them.

I’m in Munich to test the two new electrics from Škoda. The Peaq is a car I’ve already driven and showed you yesterday. It’s the new flagship for the co - and the largest suv in its portfolio. The Epiq is at the opposite end as the entry EV for the brand. More details soon. SVP

The new-generation Audi Q3 is nearly here, and the German automaker isn’t stretching things out as some of its rivals. But the new Q3 goes big on tech with Matrix LED headlights, a panoramic screen, advanced driving assistance systems, and more. SVP
