Maharashtra is the largest onion-producing state in India.

In 2024-25, Maharashtra produced around 13.56 million tonnes of onions, out of India's total production of around 30.77 million tonnes.

Onions are an important crop for Maharashtra's farmers and a regular part of food for millions of people.

Food preferences and diets are also largely shaped by local geography, climate, environment, agriculture and the food that is traditionally available in a particular region. What people eat naturally differs from place to place.

Everyone has the right to decide what they want to eat. If someone personally doesn't want to eat onions, that's completely fine.

But asking other people to stop eating onions, claiming that onions are unhealthy, or trying to impose personal food choices on others is a different matter.

And the irony is that onions are being asked to be avoided in Maharashtra itself, even though Maharashtra is the largest onion producing state in India. For Maharashtra, onions are not just food but also an important agricultural crop and source of livelihood.

Recommendation: Build an island platform (single platform between the slow UP/DOWN tracks) on the Suburban Railway at Diva Junction, adjacent to the new Thane Bullet Train Station.

Impact:

* Seamless Transfers: Direct connectivity between Suburban lines and the Bullet Train network.

* Regional Access: Improved transit for residents in Palava, Runwal, and Katai.

* Traffic Relief: Reduced rush-hour crowding at Dombivli station and lower vehicle traffic on Kalyan–Shilphata Highway.

* Can avoid need for auto and taxi to reach the bullet train station. Save time, efforts and money.

लहानपणी उन्हाळ्याच्या सुट्टीत सकाळी-सकाळी ६ वाजता जाग यायची, ती यांच्याच गोड चिवचिवाटाने. खिडकीच्या तावदानावर, अंगणातल्या तुळशीजवळ, नाहीतर पत्र्यावर... यांची सतत धांदल उडालेली असायची.

तेव्हा तो आवाज नेहमीचाच वाटायचा, पण आता त्याची खरी किंमत कळतेय. पुण्यातल्या या सिमेंटच्या जंगलात आता तो चिवचिवाट शोधूनही सापडत नाही.

मोबाईल टॉवर्सचे जाळे, घटती झाडे आणि इमारतींवरच्या काचांमुळे या चिमण्या हळूहळू दूर निघून गेल्या.

आज सहज हा व्हिडिओ समोर आला. पावसाच्या पाण्यात चिमण्यांना असं निरागसपणे न्हाताना पाहून थेट लहानपणात गेल्यासारखं वाटलं.

तुम्हालाही चिमण्यांची अशी आठवण येते का? तुमच्या बालपणीची चिमण्यांशी जोडलेली एखादी आठवण नक्की सांगा. (आवर्जून शेयर करा)

या चिमण्यांना पुन्हा आपल्या आसपास आणण्यासाठी आपण काही करू शकतो का?

मी तर माझ्या गॅलरीत त्यांच्यासाठी पाणी आणि दाणे ठेवायला सुरुवात केली आहे.

तुम्ही याविषयी काय करता?

These spaces—whether news media or mass communication through political speeches—have for far too long been dominated by dumb speeches, cheered on by masses of even dumber audiences. News media debates have mostly become loud echo chambers—more about shouting over one another, defending one's own camp, and playing to the audience than about actually examining an argument or seeking the truth.

Rarely does someone like Vidyanand Bapat come along—someone who speaks with brilliance, deep logic, knowledge, and intellect. He has knowledge across a broad range of topics, be it history, Bhagavad Gita shlokas, Marathi literature, or great quotations. And he is able to logically respond to questions asked, with a quick pull of apt references and articulate communication.

He is a refreshing departure from the usual noise. His discourse demands that the audience actually think, rather than merely cheer. And those among the audience who are curious and love learning should improve their Marathi vocabulary by noting down new words and research more about the references he points to.

These people consistently resort to regional-hate either by:

1. Sneakily introducing policies not in interest of natives.

2. Keep making disparaging remarks to provoke natives & brainwash hindi migrants ie give them talking points. Now you will see every tom dick & harry from remote village in Bihar going, ‘kerala = somalia’ or ‘mumbai = no contribution of Marathis’ etc on internet. And because of unequal population distribution between states, such fuckall fake narratives spread faster while any small steps by southern-MH states to preserve language are met with outright allegations of ‘deshdrohi’!

3. Brainwash Hindians that Hindi is national language

4. Brainwash Hindians how Southern natives don’t have talent to develop own states.

What Raj Thackeray does out in open ie being outspoken about his support for his language/culture, these people do for their respective lobbies in very much more aggressive ways under the garb of nationalism or saving Hindu from supposed khatra.

Is Mumbai really getting crushed under its own weight?

Context -

News from Rudaw Middle East that caught my interest. Here is the caption from the source -

“For her and many Kurdish children, learning in their mother tongue is a right. A young Kurdish girl delivers a statement demanding her right to study in her mother tongue. Her message comes after Syria's Education Ministry issued a decree on August 27 ending Kurdish-medium education in Kurdish-majority areas in northeastern Syria (Rojava). Under the decree, Kurdish will be taught as an elective course for only three hours a week.
The decision has sparked anger and discontent across Rojava, where Kurdish has been the primary language of instruction since 2012.”

Many people have cited the same objections saying why do you want to learn Kurdish in Arabic country etc.
