The #BEST, which provides public transport & supplies power to #Mumbai is an undertaking of the Brihanmumbai Municipal Corporation (BMC). However, in the 20th century, the #BMC had actually boycotted the use of the BEST's electricity. Thread:

The element of time is crucial in a city like #Mumbai where things move on the dot & distances are measured in terms of time taken. Did you know that the city once had its own time zone & Sir Pherozeshah Mehta, the #Congress politician resisted attempts to change it? #history

Sir Pherozeshah Mehta (1845–1915) was a #Parsi politician & lawyer known as the Lion of #Bombay. On 3 April, Mehta's statue outside the #BMC headquarters will complete 100 years. Mehta was among those who sought that #BombayTime, a seperate time zone for the city be maintained

Before the official Indian Standard Time was introduced, British India had the #Madras & #Mumbai standard times. The #Madras time was half an hour ahead of that in #Bombay. Some govt offices followed the #BombayStandardTime or #BST, while some followed the #Madras standard time.

*जुन्या पेन्शन मागणीच्या निमित्ताने माझी वेगळी मांडणी*
जूनी पेंशन आणि तुमच्या मुलांना कंत्राटी नोकऱ्यांचे आयुष्य

आज विधिमंडळात जुनी पेन्शन योजनेवर सविस्तर चर्चा झाली.

उपमुख्यमंत्री देवेंद्र फडणवीस यांनी सविस्तर भूमिका मांडून चर्चेचे आवाहन केले.मला या चर्चेत एक वेगळा मुद्दा मांडायचा आहे. आज ज्यांना पेन्शन मिळणार आहे ते ही या कर्मचाऱ्याना पेन्शन मिळाली पाहिजे अशी आग्रहाने मागणी करतात पण मला वाईट याचे वाटते की १९९८ साली मी

पाचव्या वेतन आयोगाला विरोध केला होता.तेव्हा गावोगावी माझा धिक्कार याच नोकरीतील कर्मचाऱ्यांनी केला होता.मला शिवीगाळ करणारी किमान १०० पत्र आली.अनेकांनी संबंध तोडले.बहिष्कार घातला.अनेक वर्षे मी शिव्या खातोय...

#BMC on Tuesday appealed to citizens residing in #Mulund West area to filter and boil water for drinking until further notice. This was as water tunnel conveying water from source to BMC's Bhandup complex water treatment plant which passes below ground through Thane city,(1/3)

has been damaged while the work of digging of borewell (in Thane) was ongoing. Therefore, the water supply coming to Bhandup complex through the water tunnel of BMC had to be stopped for the repair of the water tunnel.

For this reason, the old conveyance system will be used to deliver water to Bhandup Complex. Therefore water will be supplied without treatment to Veena Nagar, Vaishali Nagar, Swapna Nagar, Yogi Hills and Tambe Nagar Check Naka in Mulund West and

Dobra. Głosy paru malkontentów to za mało, by mnie zniechęcić. Będą obrazki dla #Bumech #BMC 😊
Kolejna mocna fala wzrostowa na BMC, doprowadziła już do bardzo mocnego wykupienia papieru. 89 punktów na RSI to naprawdę dużo. Poprzedni szczyt RSI z 5.10.21 to było 93 pkt /1

Takie wykupienie nawet w tak silnych trendach wzrostowych jak na BMC oznacza spore ryzyko gwałtownej korekty. Na moje czucie dziś, maksymalnie w poniedziałek 25.07 zobaczymy tu szczyt /2

Jak poważny? Myślę, w odpowiedzi na to pytanie warto przyjrzeć się temu, co się działo na BMC w październiku '21. Szczytowi RSI na 93 pkt (1) towarzyszył szczyt siły (1) tamtego ruchu w górę, zrobiony 5.10.21. Właściwy szczyt (2) uformował się pod koniec października /3

शिवसेनेच्या नेत्याविरोधात कारवाई सुरू झाल्याने कार्यकर्ते चिडले. मात्र, त्यांची शुद्ध फसवणूक त्यांच्याच नेत्यांकडून कशी सुरु आहे, हे त्यांना कोणीही लक्षात सुद्धा येऊ देत नाही. जाधव यांच्यावरील कारवाई मागे मूळ आहेत वारीस पठाण, अस्लम शेख आणि नाना पटोले यांच्या तक्रारी. (पुढे वाचा)

मुंबई मनपा ही शिवसेनेची रसद आहे आणि ती खंडित व्हावी म्हणून काँग्रेस नेत्यांनी शिवसेनेच्या सोबत जाऊन केलेले प्रयत्न सुस्पष्ट आहेत. यशवंत जाधव प्रकरणी ते उघड होतायत इतकंच.

#ThirdWave of #Covid is yet to arrive yet they are not coming up with a proper policy.
