The posts sparked a flood of reactions from users across the country. While many echoed Agnihotri’s frustration, others weighed in with biting humour.

The first major downpour of the season brought Mumbai to a grinding halt and filmmaker Vivek Agnihotri has not held back in expressing his outrage. Taking to social media platform X, the director of The Kashmir Files shared videos of flooded upscale neighbourhoods like Peddar Road and Nepean Sea Road, criticising what he called India’s “pathetic urbanisation”.

“Nepean Sea Road, home to India’s top billionaires, top ministers & officials, chokes in one shower,” Agnihotri posted, alongside a video of the inundated street. “So do Delhi, Bengaluru and other cities, year after year. India’s pathetic urbanisation is a scam wrapped in a sham. Poor ordinary citizens.. but who cares?”

In another sarcastic post, he remarked, “Pedder Road. One of Mumbai’s poshest addresses. Rs 1 lakh per sq ft for the privilege of watching your car float past your living room. World-class pricing. Third-world drainage. Enjoy the waterfront property. No extra charge.”

The posts sparked a flood of reactions from users across the country. While many echoed Agnihotri’s frustration, others weighed in with biting humour. “Sir 'Water Files' movie when??” one user joked. Another wrote, “Sir. This clearly deserves a film. Only a visionary director, a true seer of our times, can capture its depth. Title suggestion: The Drainage Files. Can’t wait for the Venice & Cannes premiere. Or at least a BMC screening. With zero taxes.”

After Shashi Tharoor's delegation expresses disappointment, Colombia withdraws statement for Pakistan

 After the Shashi Tharoor-led delegation to the US expressed disagreement over Colombia's statement supporting Pakistan, the state withdrew its statement and "will issue a statement of strong support for our position and understanding of our position," the Congress MP said."We met with the foreign ministry - the senior vice minister received us. We had some good news: They have withdrawn their statement that disappointed us earlier and will issue a statement of strong support for our position and understanding of our position. Finally, here we are before this beautiful bust of Mahatma Gandhi on the campus of the main university," Tharoor said.Speaking to the reporters later, he said, "There is no equivalence between those who attack our country and those who defend their own country, and our only disappointment with the earlier statement by Colombia was that it seemed to have overlooked this difference. We're very pleased to learn that that statement ha...

Terrorism is Pakistan’s war strategy, India to respond accordingly: PM Modi

 Prime Minister Narendra Modi on Tuesday (May 27, 2025) said terrorism practiced by Pakistan is not a proxy war but a deliberate war strategy and India will respond accordingly. Pakistan is engaging in war through terrorism, Mr. Modi said, while speaking about Operation Sindoor at the urban development programme of Gujarat Government. “We can't call this a proxy war as those who were killed on May 6 night [in Indian strikes on terror camps in Pakistan] were given state honours in Pakistan. Pakistani flags were draped over their coffins, and their military saluted them,” Mr. Modi said. “This proves that these terrorist activities are not just a proxy war but a deliberate war strategy on their part. If they engage in war, then the response will be accordingly,” he said. Mr. Modi said that whenever India and Pakistan went to war, Indian armed forces defeated Pakistan in a way the neighbouring country would never forget. “Realising they could never win a direct war against India, they ...

Shashi Tharoor ‘disappointed’ that Colombia expressed sympathies with Pakistan during Operation Sindoor

 Congress MP Shashi Tharoor has said India was disappointed with the Colombian government for expressing condolences over the loss of lives in Pakistan during Operation Sindoor, rather than sympathising with the victims of the Pahalgam terror attack. The Congress MP, who is leading a multiparty delegation to Colombia, stated on Thursday (May 29, 2025) that India was only exercising its right to self-defence. “We were a little disappointed in the reaction of the Colombian government, which apparently expressed heartfelt condolences on the loss of lives in Pakistan after the Indian strikes, rather than sympathising with the victims of terrorism,” he said. “Disappointed”: Shashi Tharoor as Colombia condemns deaths in Pakistan after Operation Sindoor  “We will say to our friends in Colombia, there can be no equivalence between those who dispatch terrorists and those who resist them. There can be no equivalence between those who attack and those who defend. We are only exercising o...
