On Diwali, how could the imagination of a #SundayWanderer travel anywhere but to Ayodhya? The magnificent spectacle of countless diyas illuminating the city evokes the timeless story of Lord Ram’s return after 14 years of exile, when the people of Ayodhya lit up their city to welcome him home. I’ve never been to Ayodhya. But one day, I hope to be there on Diwali, to join in that joyous, symbolic welcome home to Lord Ram. Until then, my imagination will have to make the journey for me… From my family to yours, wishing you a Diwali filled with light, love, joy and togetherness. Happy Diwali! 🪔

After repeated price hikes over the last 3.5 years, Nandini is making it easier for Amul to capture its market. Ghee: Nandini ₹850/L | Amul ₹680 Butter: Nandini ₹350/500 ml | Amul ₹320 You can’t expect customer loyalty through emotional slogans while pricing people out. At this rate, Nandini risks losing the very market it enjoys today!

Dear Shashanka, ಹೌದು ಗುರು, ಈ ರಾಜ್ಯದಲ್ಲಿ ಉಳಿದಿರುವ ಏಕೈಕ ಅಪ್ಪಟ ಕನ್ನಡಿಗ ನೀನೇ! Now, please list out your contributions to Karnataka & Kannada, other than being a troll.
Shiv Aroor - Konkani Akshita - Telugu + Malayali Boppanna - Coorgi Nabila - Hindustani(Hindi+ Urdu) Kannada is emotion and mother for kannadigas so you guys not related better stay away. Don't say ನಮ್ಮ ತಾತ ಇಲ್ಲಿ ಹುಟ್ಟಿದ್ದು , ನಮ್ ಅವ್ವನ ತೊಟ್ಟಿಲು ಶಾಸ್ತ್ರ ಇಲ್ಲಿ ಆಗಿತ್ತು etc

This is absolute bullcrap! Kannada newspapers are available and available plenty at Bangalore airport! I pick up and read vishwavani or vijaya karnataka every time i am at the airport! One should not throw mud without basis!

Political parties listen when in opposition but stop listening once in power. Nobody asked for this flyover. People wanted better airport connectivity via Budigere & Hennur at a lower cost and faster execution of Metro & suburban rail and PRR projects. Instead, govt is pursuing projects people never demanded.
Bengaluru: For 18 months from Nov 6, 2026, goods vehicles of all categories, including light, medium and heavy vehicles & KSRTC and private buses will be barred from Ballari Road due to BDA's construction of a four-lane elevated corridor between UAS Staff Quarters and Mehkri Circle. Airport-bound vehicles can take Nagawara-Tannery Road or BEL Circle-Ring Road, while city-bound vehicles can use Nagawara-Bamboo Bazaar-Queens Road or Hebbal Ring Road-Goraguntepalya-Dr Rajkumar Road. @blrcitytraffic

Just thinking about this is giving me the jitters! Travelling through Hebbal, to & from Bengaluru airport could get very tedious over the next 18 months as BDA begins work on a four-lane elevated corridor. Total ban on heavy vehicles, alternative route options listed below 👇🏼

Karnataka hikes bus fares, including BMTC & KSRTC. Transport Minister @byrathi_suresh said average fare hike would be 23% for KSRTC & 33-35% for BMTC. In Bengaluru, BMTC's minimum fare has been increased from Rs 6 to Rs 10, while maximum fare has gone up from Rs 35 to Rs 45. @KSRTC_Journeys @BMTC_BENGALURU
Karnataka Transport Minister @byrathi_suresh A bus fare hike in Karnataka is inevitable. Revised rates to be announced on November 4 after a meeting of senior officials& heads of the four RTCs. The minister said fares had been increased only once in the past 11 years, while diesel prices, vehicle maintenance & operating costs had risen significantly, making it difficult to run transport corporations. He said govt reimburses 100% of fares for women travelling under Shakti scheme & scheme has not caused financial difficulties for the corporations. A committee has recommended a substantial fare hike, but implementing it fully would burden passengers. Hence, govt plans a phased increase. Karnataka's bus fares remain lower than those in neighbouring states.

When someone commits a heinous crime, the first response should be empathy & an attempt to understand the larger problem. Not finding a convenient scapegoat in cinema. It is becoming increasingly clear that your concern is not for the victims or their families, but that you're using a horrific tragedy as a dirty excuse to settle your personal scores. This is especially directed at those failed frustrated jobless male/female actors, few directors, producers & parasites, who suddenly appoint themselves as social reformers whenever an opportunity arises to take a dig at someone else's work. A tragedy deserves empathy 🙏, not opportunism. Learn the difference.

Malayalees claim to be very progressive to the outside world . But when it comes to their own families - they act very regressive . She is a major - she can decide for herself , this is not a KG school .
