Happy birthday @venture_center! All the best for continued success!

What we really need is a new dedicated IIM (and IIT) in Pune! A pending demand for many decades. Not expansion campuses of IIM Mumbai and IIM Nagpur (see news story below). Pune is among the top 3-4 industrial and tech hubs of the country... with huge demand for top management and engineering graduates and researchers. But unfortunately, successive governments over the past many decades have 'allocated' IITs/IIMs/AIIMS/etc... across geographies and states - not based on real market, industry and population needs! Pune (being a 'non state capital) has always ended up on the losing end in this 'allocation'. punekarnews.in/iim-mumbai-in… cc @mohol_murlidhar @Medha_kulkarni @Dev_Fadnavis @narendramodi

Go Hoosiers!! Unbeaten 13-0 ... unbelievable.

Did you know? After the 1857 War - the British considered moving India’s capital to #Pune? They eventually picked Delhi. indianexpress.com/article/ci… During the British government’s search for a more centrally-located capital, Viceroy Lord John Lawrence suggested Poona as a “salubrious” option only “eighty miles distant, and connected by railway with Bombay.” @MulaMutha
