Elon Musk's statement may have made Ramanujan-Hardy laugh in heaven: A wonderful mathematical tale of the union of East and West, a partnership that the British scientist called a romantic incident

August 13, 26 Vadodara Live

Elon Musk, the founder of Tesla and SpaceX, said in an interview that in this era of artificial intelligence, students should pay more attention to basic subjects like physics and mathematics instead of computer programming. His statement worried many students studying computer science. But, hearing this, two great mathematicians in heaven G. H. Hardy and our own Srinivasa Ramanujan must have looked at each other and smiled. At the same time, the great physicist Richard Feynman must have seen this moment as a witness and consented to it. Elon Musk says learn physics and math instead of compute

Ankle deep again: A little rain, a big bill, and a city that keeps asking why?

August 01, 26 Rahul Vyas

It doesn't take a cloudburst to bring Vadodara to a standstill anymore. This monsoon, residents once again woke to submerged lanes, stalled two‑wheelers and water lapping at shop shutters after only a modest spell of rain. Continuous heavy rain left water accumulated on the city's main roads, disrupting daily life. For a city that markets itself as a "Sanskari Nagari" and a Smart City aspirant, the question writes itself on every waterlogged street corner: where does all the money go? The paradox: modest rain, maximum chaos: The numbers tell an uncomfortable story. Vadodara's

E20 Petrol: The Hidden Water Cost Behind India's "Green Fuel" Push — Is the Math Really Adding Up?

July 30, 26 Rahul Vyas

The Great Ethanol Paradox: Are We Burning Water to Save Petrol? India's ambitious ethanol blending programme has been celebrated as a shining success story of energy independence. India achieved 20 per cent ethanol blending in petrol in March 2025, five years ahead of target, and the Government is now aggressively pushing for E85 and E100 flex-fuel adoption. But beneath the glossy press releases lies an uncomfortable question that every Indian citizen deserves an answer to: at what real cost? While official communication celebrates carbon savings, a growing body of scientific evide

Welcome to Vadodara, where water logging is a tradition, and corruption is the city's only true infrastructure.

VADODARA — There was a time in Vadodara when the scent of wet earth brought joy, when children danced in the first showers, and a hot cup of chai made the monsoon magical. Today, a single dark cloud over the city triggers a primal fear. In Vadodara, rain is no longer a weather event; it is a municipal apocalypse. It takes exactly two to three inches of rainfall to transform this "cultural capital" of Gujarat into a sprawling, murky swimming pool. Roads vanish, cars submerge, and neighborhoods are marooned. The monsoon, once a romantic respite, is now an annual hostage situation. And the

THE GREAT DEREGULATION LIE — "MARKET-LINKED" PRICES THAT NEVER GO DOWN

May 27, 26 Rahul Vyas

On October 19, 2014, the Narendra Modi government announced with great fanfare that petrol and diesel prices would henceforth be "deregulated" and linked to international market prices. It sounded like a reform. It turned out to be a one-way valve — open to price hikes, permanently sealed against price cuts. The Tax Heist of 2014–2016: The evidence is damning and in the public domain. Between June 2014 and October 2018, the retail selling prices did not adhere to changes in global crude oil prices. The global prices fell sharply between June 2014 and January 2016, and then subsequently
