Picture of every corner of Gurgaon #unparalleled triple engine, funny @MunCorpGurugram have so much time to address twitter, more social media handlers than cleaning staff!
Once hailed as India’s ‘Millennium City’, Gurugram today is drowning in filth, broken roads & civic neglect. Where’s the governance? Where’s the accountability? Where’s the shame? @MunCorpGurugram @cmohry @PMOIndia #Gurugram #CivicFailure
Most @OfficialGMDA bus shelters for Gurugaman wear this look in Monsoons since many years. No action.
This is right outside Sector 14 main gate. Pls do something before an epidemic breaks out. #Gurugram #swacchbharat

Glad to see IITs and IISc offering institutional PDF fellowships—nurturing our PhDs who prefer to stay back, at least for now. Time for DST, DBT, CSIR labs and others to join in and build a stronger research ecosystem at home. Let’s retain talent.
Enjoyed being part of the WiSE edition of the newsletter! Thank you for considering my 2 cents in this issue🙏🏽

Road traffic in India must be reformed. Often traffic cops makes up their own logic on what is one-way, makes service lanes, entry and exit ramps two way traffic. The planners dont care where to make underpass where to make footbridge, and the list goes on...@nitin_gadkari
Started running at 89, signed by Adidas at 93, ran marathons till 100, led anti-drug campaigns till 114, was still going strong, until some imbecile ran him over in Jalandhar. What a shame for us as a country, where it’s all about tashan, rage, and reckless driving. Pic - ESPN.

For the unversed this is very road where apartments are sold for over 100 crores. #GurgaonRains turns Golf course road into river. Venice vibes and door step thrill surely deserves this price. The #LuxuryLiving hub #Gurgaon #Gurugram #GurugramRains #gurugramrain
Haryana plans Disneyland-style amusement park near Gurugram to boost tourism. Meanwhile, Govt has already started building Waterparks.
Gurgaon came to a grinding halt today. Many roads waterlogged and jammed. Many cars broke down on roads, many vehicles filled with water. This is the city that pays highest taxes in the state and is enjoying the benefits of triple engine Sarkar since 3 terms. Only hollow…
Who needs #Disneyland when entire city becomes a free water park every #GurgaonRains . This is OG #Gurgaon #Gurugram giving you free adventure rides. Get your vehicle and plunge to have real adrenaline rush from maneuvering potholes,traffic and these rivers. @cmohry…
Very informative thread, looking for the data behind this
Like I mentioned earlier, schools in India are, by law, required to be non-profits Private school must be registered as a trust, society, or Section 8 company No dividends, no profit payouts! But PE firms are profit-driven by design. So why are they investing in schools? 4/7
