In today's Tech3 from Moneycontrol, we dive into the silent churn in India's venture capital scene as mid-level VCs quietly switch firms.

Conversations and Encounters Inside the Delhi Metro The Delhi Metro, beyond being a mode of transportation, serves as a microcosm of the city itself, bringing together people from all walks of life. Inside its sleek compartments, daily commuters engage in a rich tapestry of informal chats and encounters, creating a unique urban culture. From fleeting exchanges about delayed trains to spirited discussions on politics, cricket, and Bollywood, the conversations are as diverse as the passengers. Students compare notes on exams, professionals discuss office woes, and elderly passengers share anecdotes about a city that has changed before their eyes. Some encounters are serendipitous—strangers bonding over a shared alma mater, a lost object being returned, or travelers offering tips for navigating the city. Others are humorous and fleeting, such as passengers cracking jokes about the metro's infamous rush-hour crowds or offering unsolicited advice to someone on the phone. Despite the occasional chaos, the metro also fosters moments of kindness. People offer their seats to the elderly, share earphones to listen to a trending song, or help tourists find their way. These everyday interactions transform the Delhi Metro into more than just a transit system—it becomes a space where stories are shared, connections are formed, and the pulse of Delhi's life is felt. In these brief yet meaningful encounters, the metro reveals the essence of the city's spirit: vibrant, chaotic, and undeniably human.

Fluent Fiction - Hindi: The Enchanted Encounter: A Joyful Journey through the Heart of Delhi Find the full episode transcript, vocabulary words, and more:fluentfiction.org/the-enchanted-encounter-a-joyful-journey-through-the-heart-of-delhi Story Transcript:Hi: दिल्ली मेट्रो की भीड़भाड़युक्त दुपहरी में कुछ अनोखा होने जा रहा था। आवाज़ों और हरे-बहरे शोर के बीच, एक मनहूसी का संकेत मिलता है कि आज यात्रा सामान्य नहीं होने जा रही है।En: In the bustling afternoon of Delhi Metro, something unique was about to happen. Amidst the voices and vibrant noises, a sense of restlessness could be felt indicating that today's journey was not going to be ordinary.Hi: राहुल, प्रिया और उनका छोटा भाई आरव शामिल थे। उन्होंने गर्मी, जोरदार धक्कामुक्की और अज्ञात आधारों से अपने मार्ग को होने दिया। गूंजती हंसी की आवाज से उनका ध्यान बाग की ओर खींचा गया । चौपट करते हुए वे देखते हैं कि एक खाली सीट दिखाई दी, परंपरागत भारतीय कपड़ों में एक आदमी चुपचाप बैठा था जो सो रही आंटीजी के बैग पर बैठ गया था।En: Rahul, Priya, and their little brother Arav were present. They had allowed their path to be guided by the heat, vigorous pushing, and unknown reference points. Amidst the echoing laughter, their attention was drawn towards a vacant seat, where a man, dressed in traditional Indian attire, sat quietly, leaning on the bag of a sleepy auntie.Hi: वह अचानक उठती है, आपको अपनी बेचैनी का आभास करते हुए। मेट्रो गाड़ी हंसी से गूंज उठी। आरव बेसुख रह गया, जबकि प्रिया और राहुल चारों ओर फेली हंसी में खो गए।En: He suddenly gets up, giving the impression of his uneasiness. The metro carriage echoes with laughter. Arav remains indifferent, while Priya and Rahul get lost in the contagious laughter all around.Hi: "माफी चाहता हूं," कहते हुए आदमी तत्परता हुआ उठता है, उसके चेहरे पर शर्म और झिझक लिखी हुई होती है।En: "I apologize," the man says as he anxiously rises, his face showing a mix of embarrassment and hesitation.Hi: यह उसका अच्छा दिन नहीं था, लेकिन प्रिया, राहुल और आरव ने देखा कि कैसे ज़िंदगी की एक छोटी घटना एक अस्थायी भूल को क्षमा में बदल सकती है और अच्छी यात्रा को एक उन्मोल मुस्कान में बदल सकती है। यह एक संघर्ष और संतोषजनक सांगठनिक मिनट था जहां वे सभी सीखे कि, जीवन, चाहे एक भीड़भाड़ वाली दिल्ली मेट्रो हो या अनुमान से परे, हमेशा गूड़ गोलू और ममता से भरी होती है। लाइफ, अच्छी नहीं, बल्कि महान होती है, अगर हम सही दृष्टिकोण से देखें।En: It wasn't his lucky day, but Priya, Rahul, and Arav witnessed how a small incident in life can transform a temporary mistake into forgiveness and turn a good journey into an invaluable smile. It was a moment of struggle and contentment where they all learned that life, whether in the crowded Delhi Metro or beyond expectations, is always filled with joy and affection. Life isn't just good but great if we look at it from the right perspective.

The war for talent has become an industry-wide phenomenon amid an acute shortage of digital skills.

It hit 41.5 degrees Celsius in Palakkad this week. In the blistering heat, there is an 89-year old man campaigning for the post of MLA from this storied town that sits in a gap in the Western Ghats between Tamil Nadu and Kerala. He is the legendary Dr Elattuvalappil Sreedharan, India’s most accomplished engineer.At his age, he has no need to prove anything to anybody. He has been awarded India’s second-highest civilian honor, the Padma Vibhushan, as well as the French Legion d’Honneur. I have suggested that he should be made President of India, because he would be a fantastic role model, and an inspiration to youth.Dr Sreedharan has frequently faced long odds in his engineering career spanning seven decades, and defeated them. There are very good reasons to honor him with a Bharat Ratna, the highest civilian award, as well, as argued delightfully by kaipullai who recounts the herculean tasks that Dr Sreedharan set himself. To take just three: the Pamban sea bridge, the monumental Konkan Railway and the Delhi Metro — all bhagiratha prayatnams.At the age of almost 90, when most people prefer to take it easy, he has taken on another huge challenge: he is on a mission to revive the BJP’s chances in Kerala. In 2016, after a fine campaign, the BJP had to be content with just one seat in the legislature. Conventional wisdom is that it will not get much more in 2021.There are several reasons for this grim forecast. One is the entrenched nature of the two fronts (LDF led by the CPI(M) and the UDF led by the INC) which have alternated in power for a long time. Another is the highly polarized nature of the electorate, where ideological metastasis has set in. The third is demography: Abrahamics, who tend to form vote-banks, make up more than half the voters.The Hindu vote has been fragmented. The numerically largest group, the OBC Ezhavas, have long been the backbone of the Communists. The next largest group, the FC Nairs, have been Congress supporters, but have moved somewhat to the BJP. Other groups, including SC, have been wooed by the BJP with little effect.In 2016, the BJP made an explicit call for Hindu unity by headlining their campaign around Sri Narayana Guru, Chattampi Swamikal, and Mahatma Ayyankali, who were respectively from the three groups mentioned above. However, groupism and internecine warfare especially among the Ezhavas and Nairs, along with tactical voting by both LDF and UDF, buried its chances.Several things have changed since then, though. See articles in the Indian Express and the Hindu about a consolidation of Hindu votes (although the articles may also represent the respective biases of the two newspapers).One big difference is that the Indian National Congress seems to be running a lackluster campaign. So much so that typical alternation every five years between the Communists and the Congress (much as between the DMK and the ADMK in neighboring Tamil Nadu) may not happen this time.The second is the changes in the previously monolithic Abrahamic vote. Christians of all stripes have viewed the Congress (and allies) as their own party. But now some of them, especially some Eastern Orthodox groups (as compared to the dominant Vatican-affiliated groups) seem to be vacillating a bit.The Muslim League has been a Congress ally, but this time they are being challenged by the more radical SDPI, which has made a strong alliance with the CPI(M). So the Congress, despite their safe Parliamentary seat in Wayanad for the current Nehru dynasty scion, can no longer count on the Muslim vote.There are also allegations that there are lakhs of illegal alien Bangladeshis and Rohingyas in the Kerala voters’ list. There are many lakhs of them working in Kerala doing everything from construction to plucking coconuts. It is not hard to believe that ruling parties (both LDF and UDF) have stuffed the rolls with them.There are regional differences too: Northern Kerala is Marxist and Muslim dominated; Central Kerala is Christian and Congress dominated; Southern Kerala is where Hindus may have a chance: and indeed the one seat the BJP captured in 2016 is Nemom, south of Trivandrum.The state has also been wracked with stories and rumors of large-scale corruption, including gold and dollar smuggling, scams in construction, deep-sea fishing boats, the sale of coronavirus patient data, and a whole lot more. Whether these have an impact on the ruling LDF’s chances remains to be seen.There are interesting twists. It is said that in 2016, the BJP spent 64 crore rupees, while the LDF spent only 14 crores, and the UDF somewhere in between. But there appear to be other, hidden factors. On March 25th, three boats with alleged Pakistan links were captured off Minicoy. So there could be unaccounted sources of money and muscle in the fray.There was also a tweet from Kanchan Gupta about what has happened in his native West Bengal, and, well, much of the same is applicable to Kerala as well.The only difference in Kerala is that there has not been a TMC here. However, the explicitly anti-Hindu nature of those in power is exactly the same. We saw this in the Sabarimala agitation, which brought tens of thousands of apolitical Hindu women on to the streets with lamps, to protest the desecration of their temple. People4Dharma (led by Shilpa Nair, Padma Pillai, and Anjali George) and Indic Collective (led by Adv J Sai Deepak) were able to arouse the silent majority out of their lethargy.There is also the fact that two of the most striking modern Hindu artifacts in the country are in southern Kerala: the Gangadhareswar murti at Aazhimala, and the Jatayu sculpture at Chadayamangalam, both in the suburbs of Trivandrum.This possibly means that if the NDA is able to energize injured Hindu sentiment, based on the continuous hostility of the LDF (e.g. contemptuous statements about Hindus by their leaders) and the UDF (e.g. an ostentatious slaughter of a calf and a beef fest conducted by their leaders), there is a possibility that the BJP may yet do better in Kerala than we think.If that happens, Dr Sreedharan may have pulled off yet another impossible dream.

In this episode, I read "Aligarh"  by Akhil Katyal. And two bonus poems because I have a mountain sized crush on him.  Continuing my exploration of India poets in English and in translation. Since the only other Indian language I can read is Hindi, it is hard for me to access material in other languages unless already translated and well, the loss is entirely mine. The poems today touch upon the subject of identity and the communication of identity, about what is acceptable. I find these two poems, both on the subject of queerness interesting when juxtaposed with each other. One is Akhil's lament about how to explain queerness let alone claim it in a coloured and intolerant world. The other is a private conversation with his mother, her question not one of morality but of concern not "log kya kahenge?" but "tum theek rahoge?". Listen in!    The poems I read can be accessed here - https://scroll.in/article/911994/politics-history-and-memory-merge-in-these-poems-on-kashmir-and-beyond And -  http://poetry.sangamhouse.org/2018/09/by-akhil-katyal/   The host, Ravneet Bawa as -   @one_third_above on Instagram   @maikeya on Twitter   Email: ravneet_bawa@icloud.com                        Disclaimer: This podcast is created for sharing with friends and family, and only as a passion project amidst the Covid lockdown with no commercial interest.

Recently, a video of Deepak Kalal surfaced online from Delhi Metro, where a girl is seen slapping him.

In the latest edition of Metro Matters, Mangu Singh, managing director, Delhi Metro Rail Corporation, speaks to Shivani Singh, metro editor, Hindustan Times. The Delhi Metro chief talks about tackling the challenges of punctuality in operations, the growing problem of crowding at stations as well as fixing last-mile connectivity. Mangu Singh says that the corporation is planning to introduce new, energy-efficient mobility options such as e-rickshaws and e-bikes to complement the feeder bus service. He also talks about the new Metrolite project and the Phase IV expansion.

In a change of track, we decide to discuss a matter that has been around for more than a decade now. When the Delhi metro rail was planned and put in place, it was suggested that it would significantly improve intra-city travel and improve the traffic situation in the city. While the former is definitely a positive outcome of the implementation, the latter is still a major problem in the city. In this podcast, we debate whether the Delhi Metro has really been as effective as is claimed by the governing bodies and their supporters. Or, is there a bigger problem at play here that we refuse to acknowledge. A problem that is more deep rooted than we think.

* The temperature and Indian politics is heating up as the country gears up for the sixth phase of elections on 12 May. Hey guys, I’m Sonal and you’re listening to the My Vote 2019 Podcast, your one stop shop for daily election related developments.  * As you know, AAP held a press conference over the distribution of pamphlets with extremely derogatory and casteist language against its East Delhi candidate Atishi Marlena allegedly circulated by the BJP candidate Gautam Gabhir. And now our elections has officially hit a new low. But Atishi has filed a complaint with the Delhi Commission for Women and in turn, Gambhir has sent a defamation notice to Atishi, Delhi CM Arvind Kejriwal and Delhi Deputy CM Manish Sisodia for alleging that he circulated these pamphlets. Gambhir first said he will quit politics if it can be proven he distributed these pamphlets, then he also said he would hang himself.  * While addressing a rally in Haryana, Prime Minister Modi slammed Congress for its leader Sam Pitroda’s remark, “Hua so hua” for the 1984 anti-Sikh riots. Modi said these three words summed up the Congress’s arrogance. Pitroda in response hit out at BJP for twisting his words and distorting facts to hide their own failures.  * Andhra Pradesh CM and Telugu Desam Party president Chandrababu Naidu held a closed door discussion with his West Bengal counterpart Mamata Banerjee in Kharagpur on future plans of the Mahagathbandhan. Naidu and Didi also discussed whether she will attend the meeting of opposition parties to discuss future plans, set to be held on 21 May.  * And your last update for the day, in a relief for Delhi voters, the Delhi Metro will begin services two hours earlier on polling day. The train services will begin at 4am instead of 6am on 12 May.  * That was your quick 2019 My Vote Elections wrap for the day.
