Quick notes: 491 years | Startup scene...

  • US state department report: Nepal biggest operation hub for Indian Mujahideen.


  • K Parasaran: Dharmo Rakshati Rakshitah!


  • Isolate the innovators, move to small towns: Rajeev's insights into the Startup environment and Tech in India and how it can bloom.



  • Really: Zomato made Rs 1001 Cr loss in FY19 on revenues of Rs 1,397 Crore


  • Help the Kurds, not the Arabs: India is providing scholarships to 1,000 Syrian students to study in Indian universities, in undergraduate, post-graduate courses and even PhD


  • Turkey Is Islamic State: For Syrian Kurds, and aid workers – the ‘safe zone’ is not so safe


  • Su-30MKI: Russian designed, Indian built. Pakistan may well achieve near-parity over time if it receives J-10 fighters from China (as well as the J-31, the quasi-5th generation fighter now being developed by the Chinese). Such near-parity between the IAF and the PAF would be completely unprecedented.  The power balance with the Chinese Air Force is an even greater worry for India.


  • Walkability upgrade: Bengaluru's suburban rail network, finally on track?


  • Clean air hope: Electric bus manufacturing unit coming up near Pune
