It has been 18 Days since #SonamWangchuk has been on fast, asking for very basic & necessary demands for the region of Ladakh. We the people of Mainland should rise for the support for Ladakh. As the eco-sensitive place has implications for all of India.

At Lalbagh, I was finally able to click a shot of the much favoured EV -- dubbed as Harini Express. Any guesses on who it is named after?

Can someone tell me who the #Bengaluru cab and auto-drivers are relentlessly talking to on their phones, day or night? Be it a 5 AM drop to the airport or a 6 PM drive through Sarjapur traffic, these men will be talking away like no tomorrow. It doesn't feel lovey-dovey either..

Coming soon on Azim Premji University YouTube Channel.

#alexeinavalny was a very bravest man. A man who had the guts to stand in front of an autocrat & not cower. When he returned to Moscow, his fate was sealed. Putin had got him poisoned in Germany, how could he ever think of returning to Russia? Destined? But very very tragic

This logo makes me happy, no matter wherever I go..
