Shyam Benegal sa'ab was a visionary filmmaker who left an indelible mark on Indian cinema.

The ONOS initiative might be chasing an obsolete goal... an expensive detour and not really a step forward. #openaccess

The Ministry of Finance presented data in the Parliament that revealed a 317% rise in counterfeit ₹500 notes over the last five years.
Stellar failure of a disruptive initiative by the Modi government that failed to achieve any of its stated objectives.

What an incredible Test match win after that first session on the first day! Incredible performances... from the skipper to the young kids on the block to the comeback men.

ANI's suit against OpenAI alleges that AI hallucinations pose "a real threat to ANI’s reputation.”

Didn't get regular briefings by the health minister and the PMO during the pandemic.
