Yet another helcopter pilot flies into terrain called "Controlled Flight into Terrain" (CFIT) in bad weather.
I have now lost count of how many colleagues and close friends among the helicopter pilot community I have lost due to this one recurring factor

Folks, please check out this thread and join our Founding50 program if you think data can help you see your litigation better.
Yet another case management system? Nope, we had something else in mind.
Tracking individual cases is useful. Seeing what they tell you together opens up a different set of opportunities: 1/n

1. What does your law firm's or company’s litigation portfolio look like? Which kinds of matters dominate your practice? How old are your pending cases, and how have disposed matters ended?
2. What do judge wise patterns in interim orders look like? Do timelines vary by bench or judge?
3. Can I see across the case family (main case, interim applications, lower court cases, appeals and tagged matters) all together in one place?
4. Can I group cases argued by a specific counsel in one place and see case patterns?
5. Can I group cases involving a specific company (say, Tata Motors) together and see their case patterns? Courtfolio, our new feature on CourtsDaily, lets you explore those questions using public court data. Save cases, organise them into Watchlists and receive email updates. Then generate a litigation profile for yourself or your company, showing patterns across case types, judges, outcomes and timelines. Update it and share it (or not!) with clients, peers and friends at the click of a button. 2/n

Capping margins on drugs & consumables will not unfortunately bring down overall healthcare costs.
The costs will be pushed to other heads. Only silver lining-professional services will get hiked(justifiably) like nursing, physiotherapy, consults, procedures, surgeon fees etc.
🚨 SUPREME COURT | “Can you show any justification for this loot?”
A cancer patient’s husband, a medical distributor, told the Supreme Court that an injection available to him at a dealer price of ₹11,000 was allegedly priced at ₹1.30 lakh by a reputed hospital, which refused to administer the injection he offered.
“Why this difference? Where does the money go?” Justice Sandeep Mehta asks the Centre.

first you delete . then you make an appeal to apply using form 6 with an illegal declaration ( liable with a 1 year jail term for misrepresentation) that you are a "first time voter"!!
The election Commission and its proceedures are a cruel joke on people, democracy, and citizens
VIDEO | Karnataka Chief Electoral Officer V Anbukumar says, "I appeal to all the eligible voters of Karnataka. If your name is not there in the electoral roll, kindly apply through Form 6, your name will be definitely added into the electoral roll after due verification. I could assure, we have taken lot of special drives, campaigns and publicity campaigns. So, every voter is aware of and I specially appeal to voters who complete 18 years of age. The moment you complete 18 years of age, kindly apply immediately, definitely enrol your name into the electoral roll."

Tata is being criminally destroyed, and no business leader dares say a word.
How long will you stay silent? Until they own you?
Indian business is not Modi and Shah's plaything. You lack courage. We don't. We will ensure justice for these crimes.

Its heartbreaking to witness the descent of Andhra Pradesh in to a haven for goons, thugs and antisocial elements. This is the result of state-capture by two family-owned parties that have between them have been trying to restore medieval style feudalism in what was once one of the most progressive states of India.
Key governance institutions have been poisoned by casteism, cronyism, corruption, toxic politicisation, etc. Politics has become the exclusive domain of contractors, mining dons, education and health czars, liquor contractors, pairavikars, goons, with the police acting as the private militia of the party in power.
When political parties see each other as enemies to be annihilated, and elections are nothing but a war to be fought with weapons and cash, it cannot be characterised as democracy. Its demonocracy!
The #SEC conducting the local body elections was the same gentleman removed by the @ECISVEEP as the chief secretary of AP in 2019! It would be a pipe dream to expect free and fair elections in the state.
In more than one way, Andhra Pradesh is showing the way for rest of India to emulate, in the most decadent way, despite the pronouncements of AI, Quantum, World Class City, etc.
I appeal to the people of Andhra Pradesh to recognise the reality and put an end to this criminal enterprise by not voting for either @YSRCParty or the #NDA alliance - @JaiTDP @JanaSenaParty @BJP4Andhra.
Vote for any other public spirited contestant, if any.
Do not sell your vote, its priceless.

As if the credibility crisis of ECI isn't already bad enough, in NDA-ruled Andhra Pradesh poll process for local body polls has been reduced to a violent joke.
Candidates, largely from Opposition YSRCP, blocked, papers snatched away as police stand by. Women candidates have been attacked.
A TDP MLA is caught on camera calling on his cadres to “break the legs” of those coming to file nominations.

At least 61,059 Form-7 applications seeking the deletion of names from Karnataka’s electoral rolls were filed by election officials themselves, with not a single application mentioning a reason for the deletion, a mandatory requirement under the Registration of Electors Rules, 1960.

Will capping trade margins on 137 #cancer drugs actually lower #medical bills? My recent story in @timesofindia examines the risk that #hospitals could offset lower #drug margins with higher charges for diagnostics, consumables or procedures. Lower drug prices don’t automatically mean cheaper cancer care. The move requires strict monitoring & implementation across all stakeholders.

First they create fear, detain protestors, smash bones, throw leaders in jail, book some under UAPA, install CCTVs, monitor social media, victimize dissenters, harass cartoonists, call the bulldozers - then they ask, "if so many voters are excluded, why are they not protesting"?

The EDF (Export Declaration Form) rules are now in effect, and it seems like RBI and banks have conspired to create a new hell. Or actually 5 hells.
I consult for an American company. Raised October invoice. Received the Inward remittance. And bang! Mail from @HDFC_Bank detailing everything needed before the payment can be processed.
Let me tell you what the 5 hells are:
1. The hell of confusion – RBI clarified last month that the EDF rules do not apply to individuals. But looks like they haven’t told the banks. And CAs also don’t seem to know. There’s no official communication on who is exempt. Last I checked, I was an individual. No company, no LLP. But HDFC still wants me to file the EDF to credit my payment.
2. The hell of complexity – See the attached pic of the form the bank has sent in excel. It has 5 sheets. To be filled and submitted. Some abstruse acronyms like “AD” - no clue what it means. Some fields are mandatory. Some fields are to be filled by the bank. No idea which is what. And it needs a physical signature. Which leads to...
3. The hell of paperwork - They also sent a pdf with a bunch of request letters. I’m supposed to choose the right letter, print, sign, scan and submit. Creating more paper today is incredibly silly. And, I suppose, someone in the bank will have to upload all this somewhere. Reminds me of those hand-filled immigration forms. Pointless.
4. The hell of repetition – At least for me, most of the details are constant. One client, one payment. If it’s a one-time exercise, fine. I’ll grit my teeth and get it done. But no. These details have to be given month after month. Else… no payment will be credited.
5. The hell of unpreparedness – It would have been simple enough for RBI or HDFC to create an online portal for this. With dropdowns, saved formats, contextual help, etc. to at least make this easy. But that would be too convenient, no? So, they’ve chosen to dump the entire burden on the taxpayer.
I have no opinion or understanding of why this is needed. Maybe it is critical information. Okay! But why make the process so confusing and painful?
And poor communication has meant that the banks have just passed on the pain to the exporter, and even CAs can’t help.
Basically RBI & HDFC feel I should consult less, and comply more. Maybe my client will also agree :)

out of the 5 tenders eMudhra has won, as per my database, 3 of them are single-financial bid tenders.
eMudhra had no competition.
i wonder why
If you'd like to start an #emudhra competitor in India, a CCA license requires 50 crores for companies and 5 crores for Individuals/firms.
The rest of the guidelines are at cca.gov.in/sites/files/pdf/g…

It was Modi who agreed to reduce tariffs on American goods to zero.
It was Modi who committed to buying $500 billion worth of American goods.
It was Modi who had agreed to stop buying Russian oil because Trump asked him to.
But according to some it’s the opposition and CJP who are being controlled by foreign powers.🤦🏻♂️
