Reliance industries bought 5286 acre SEZ land for 2200Cr Rs.41.6 L per acre). The land parcel located next to Navi Mumbai airport & JNPT port.

The land next to main road in my village in Virudhunagar dt is worth 50+L per acre

Feeling proud, My village = Navi Mumbai Airport 1/3 Image
The land transaction has complex web of ownership. The NMIIA owns the NMSEZ land, 74% of NMIIA owned by DIPL, 26% by CIDCO. DIPL is owned by UIHPL. Which is 32% owned by Jai corp (Anand jain), 35% by SKIL, 33% by Mukesh Ambani group. Now DIPL sold its stake in NMIIA to RIL 2/3 Image
After announcing this news Jai corporation stock price went down by 40% in few days 😂. Industrial lands are typically sold cheap to motivate industries. TN govt gives land in Siruseri SIPCOT for 8 cr per acre, Oragadam for 1.7 Cr. Navi Mumbai SEZ sold for 41.6 L, cheapest 😜 3/3 Image

China unveiled its cutting-edge J-36 jet. As per my experience, with the present setup, India can never manufacture a 6th gen jet. We have chaotic, bureaucratic aircraft design, development, and Manufacturing ecosystem. With ADA doing the project management role 1/4 Image
Most of the design work carried by 30+ DRDO labs, NAL.etc. Different DRDO lab follow long procedure to even communicate between one-another. Highly paper oriented bureaucratic visionless system. These design are manufactured by HAL, BEL.etc. DRDO-ADA-HAL-BEL a nightmare combo 2/4 Image
I had visited most the these organization, I had worked in companies like L&T defense, GE..etc. I can visibly feel the difference. DRDO-HAL-BEL wonot work in sync. Whenever, I visit DRDO, first thing they say is, I am Scientist-C, he is Scientist-B, Hey I am distinguished 3/4 Image

If I were to be Samsung, if the option is between shifting the factory or accepting CITU. I will choose shifting the factory. People have no idea, what is the actual consequences of allowing CITU inside the production line. It is better to save the Brand name than factory 🧵 1/n
If a company allow CITU, they will loose the control over their production line, for high tech electronics company, it is like committing suicide. You can't control quality, u cant change the low quality employee. Political party (CITU is full of poltics) will dictate it 2/n
High tech electronics appliances has many components, even single assembly issues will create bad quality product, unhappy customer. Within a year, a company will loose the market. Most importantly its brand name. Samsung brand name more important than a manufacturing plant 3/n

Many heritage structures of Madurai incl the fort walls, orchids..etc were demolished by British. Many temples were in ruins. The pillars of the front mandapam was sold to Adeline Gibson, now displayed in the world famous Philadelphia museums. Adeline died at young age 2/3 Image
British were impressed by the ruins of Thirumalai naikar mahal, they renovated the palace, but didnot maintain the temples. In last 80yrs, many temples were renovated. Though not popular, Even today, Madana gopalsamy temple is worshipped by devotees of Madurai 3/3

Extending BMRCL upto Hosur is now a hot topic, hearing lot of angry voices. In 1973, TN govt setup Hosur SIPCOT due to proximity to Blre. Post 1991, Hosur saw decline. From 1998, KA started building, its largest Bommasandra industrial cluster using existing Hosur ecosystem 1/6
Image
Image
Hosur never competed with Bengaluru, it complimented it. Tamil Nadu/Hosur went through severe electricity crisis during 2009-13, political crisis btw 2014-17. During this time KA overtook TN in industrial investment. Built it's largest industrial ecosystem around Bangalore 2/6 Image
Having, intra state industrial ecosystem is beneficial to both states. It will ensure bad policy of one state doesn't affect whole ecosystem. Hosur and Bengaluru benefited from each other. From 2017, TN govt been proactive, so Hosur industrial system is reviving 3/6 Image

TN is No.1 in destroying beaches with waste. With illegal shop, irresponsible people, & failed govt.
Marina beach is gone, then we lost Besant Nagar beach, Ariyamaan beach is also down with waste. It is sad to see once clean Mahabalipuram beach is also occupied by illegal shop. Image
Most of these shops are controlled by local goons, these shop owners pay their rent to them. Regulating these shops by local bodies will fetch more revenue to them will help to keep it clean, but deprive mafia's their money. Shops went till beach water, getting worse in last 5yrs
I know, whatever I post in Twitter will have zero impact on the ground. It is a system run by the mafia, for the mafia. I request people to boycott beach shops, we can only do them.
