"As we bid good bye to 2024, we are in the age of Artificial Intelligence. The tech age and as Indians let us be honest. We have not contributed to any technological revolution. Yes we have the resources to make use of them by buying them. But scientific innovation. No. None. Not even remotely. Our Indian tech revolution is as users not as inventors," he added.

“Our desire for invention seems to be all invested in our obsession to invent hidden temples. And make no mistakes. A statistically significant section of the population is applauding it. And yes the more the educated the more temple-searchers they tend to be. Those educated ones who should have been at the forefront of heralding the Indian tech revolution are busy in mythologising,” he posted.

“I was recently in Dubai and had the chance to see magnificence in the form of architecture of the temples that have been built here. What an oasis of tolerance and mutual respect Dubai has turned out to be. So good it is. Literally every nationality is here and in how an orderly manner they live. I was in Dubai in late nineties. What an Evolution. How they have evolved. And they deserve to be proud of their evolution into excellence,”Lone wrote.

“And looking back at my own country. How we have regressed. The electoral victories have come at a cost, which have left this country soulless. This country once defined by its soulfulness is tragical now soulless and in search of a soul,” he added.
