Anngalhad I love you so much girl.
Tumblr media
She trust this man about as far as she could throw 'em.
Tumblr media
Trying to warn everyone about all this sus going on.
And while I'm loving the casual Chion Slander, I can't help but think a wools being pulled over our eyes.
Tumblr media
So right here it's obvious that Chion being front and center, along with what we've seen him lie about, puts him as the most likely to be the traitor.
But all this seems... To obvious to be entirely true? I can't quite explain it but I feel as though we're being slightly fooled, Chion as the traitor is TOO obvious, like if we were asked to give our suspicion on who it would be of course it would be him! But what if his sus behavior is hiding the real traitor like a Dank Mist?
Idk for now but when Barta says "Hope will be snatched away once more." Makes me hope he just means that Percy's getting a little kidnapped and not that Percy's Friends are about to die.

In a first-of-its-kind initiative launched by the exchange4media group 50 Party Spokespersons were ranked and honoured for their work as political advocates of their respective political parties.
Tumblr media
At the event held at India International Centre on April 28, veteran political spokesperson and Member of Parliament, Sudhanshu Trivedi was awarded the first place in the list that saw 5 non-BJP Spokespersons in top 10.

Dr. Anurag Batra Discusses Why The Tv Ratings Issue Continues To Rage On
One of the youngest media moguls from India, Dr. Anurag Batra is a serial entrepreneur and a mentor to many successful entrepreneurs. Dr. Anurag Batra, Founder, exchange4media Group and Editor-in-Chief of BW Businessworld, asks pertinent questions on why the ratings issue continues to rage on. In his latest article, Anurag Batra speaks on the unanswered questions about the TV ratings.
Tumblr media
“It’s been 10 weeks since the ratings have resumed for individual news channels. Ratings and measurement are supposed to bring order and give a currency for performance and measurement for all stakeholders. However, instead, the ratings have turned out to be baffling and bemusing. The ratings in the current form leave a lot many questions unanswered rather than answering and regaining credibility”, Anurag Batra says. The current regime seems to be taking off the sheen of ratings and raises a lot of questions about the mechanism, he analyses.
The first question he answers is whether the landing pages viewership be counted as legitimate viewership and should this data be factored in while calculating ratings. In his words, “In the past, a certain broadcaster did it and the then CEO of a ratings mechanism allowed the same and the technical board of the ratings mechanism continued to allow landing page data to be featured as ratings, and allowed it as an input into ratings. I, personally, would strongly urge the stakeholders to reconsider allowing landing pages determined inputs as ‘no viewership’ or its weightage be minimised. The advertiser is paying for engaged and real viewers, not accident-bait viewers who are forced to leave impressions on a certain page”.
The second issue that worries Anurag Batra is the fact that news channel owners who rightly stayed away and criticised such practices of landing pages or other not so best practices have started embracing these practices to stay ahead. “Certain news organisations have even embraced professionals who have been mired in controversy and who they were earlier targeting for malpractices. This is very disturbing. We have to have faith and conviction in one’s own content and the process rather than hiring the same professionals that were once publicly accused of malpractices. This is double-spoken and espouses the low morality of some news media owners and their own eagerness to do well in the short term. Ideally, such professionals should have been singled out and side-lined in a formal way. We need to clean up the system”, Dr. Batra says.
The third issue he discusses is with data collection. A lot of employees of a certain data-gathering agency, which was accused of malpractices or at least the lack of any checks and tampering, have joined a new agency that is supposed to protect and gather data. This is too ironic. This shows the lack of oversight and it seems it is so easy to violate data, Dr. Anurag Batra concluded.

“India is the most conducive market for consolidation in the media and entertainment sector”, asserts Anurag Batra
Anurag Batra is the Chairman & Editor-in-Chief of the BW Businessworld Group and the Founder & Editor-in-Chief of the exchange4media Group. Anurag Batra is a serial entrepreneur, media mogul, a journalist and an angel investor all rolled into one. Anurag Batra is also appointed by Government of India as the Chairman of an industry committee formed to come up with a vocational training framework for the media, communication and entertainment industry. Anurag Batra discusses on the Zee-Sony merger matter and the immense opportunities that the combined entity will be able to create. He also highlights the importance of home grown Indian giant companies and the essential role they play in the Indian media and entertainment sector.
Tumblr media
Zee is a home-grown Indian company and its merger with a global giant predicts well for the industry as it is bound to drive consolidation and growth while bringing in enhanced investment into the sector. Anurag Batra highlights that the immense opportunities the combined entity will be able to create in terms of employment generation can be transformative for the entire Indian creative ecosystem. He also identifies that this can in turn propel advertiser sentiment and spending.
As per the thoughts of Anurag Batra, India is the most conducive market for consolidation in the media and entertainment sector. “With behemoths like Google and Facebook scaling up massively in India, we need larger players to take them on”, Anurag Batra states. This can lead to the race for digital advertising ending up as a two-horse race with maybe one challenger, who may have the financial resources. Anurag Batra suggests that we need a strong counterbalance to the other bigger players to keep the Indian media and entertainment sector vibrant and competitive.
Anurag Batra believes that financial investors should not suddenly assume the mantle of strategic partners. If they want to see the creation of value for all stakeholders, they must continue to trust the management and board of the company while establishing appropriate checks, balances and governance controls. Anurag Batra considers this especially important if the management is always delivering spectacular returns. Strategic support and inputs would certainly assist the management, he says, but intervention when it is not required can become a sure cause for long-term disaster on the back of some misplaced desire for short-term satisfaction.
Anurag Batra also identifies the fact that family-driven companies deliver more shareholder value. Empirical research has shown that family-run companies have delivered spectacular returns too. Anurag Batra is certain that the Zee-Sony consolidation led by Zee’s Punit Goenka will create even more value for all stakeholders. This merger will empower family-driven companies to be the anchor of India’s vibrant and fast-growing business environment, attracting foreign investments, Batra hopes.
Home-grown Indian giants such as Zee have also contributed to the betterment of various socioeconomic indicators in the last three decades and to the betterment of the country across the board, through employment generation, pioneering the sector, gigantic CSR efforts and their unflinching and deep support to the nation during the pandemic.
While Gautam Adani’s impending entry into media may happen this year, Annurag also notices that Sanjiv Goenka has also been keen on media and entertainment for a long time and has been keen on growing his portfolio. Even if that happens, Anurag Batra asserts that we need to preserve the Zee legacy and strengthen it by creating a strong Zee-led entity through this merger with Sony. In Anurag Batra’s view, till more large Indian business houses invest and create larger players in the sector, the prudent approach would be to encourage consolidation to create larger entities that can compete well and continue driving growth in the Media and Entertainment sector.

India has recovered faster than any country in the world post-pandemic - Anurag Batra
Anurag Batra, the Chairman & Editor-in-Chief of the BW Businessworld Group and the Founder & Editor-in-Chief of the exchange4media Group is an entrepreneur, journalist, an angel investor and a media observer. He also an author, TV show host and mentor to many successful entrepreneurs. He is a B. Tech graduate in Computer Sciences, a degree which he acquired before joining Management Development Institute MDI Gurgaon, one of India’s leading Business School. According to Anurag Batra, India has recovered faster than any country in the world post-pandemic. Digital adoption and technological acceleration are two major factor that helped cause this change.
Tumblr media
India is in the midst of a deep technological acceleration and is aligned with the world, says Anurag Batra. He also forecasts that in some cases India is even ahead of the curve. Indians have digital adoption across every aspect of life and business. Anurag Batra explains this fact with the help of some interesting factors:
The US retail market is the largest in the world, where e-commerce made up 16 per cent of it till February 2020, 20 years since retail went digital. In just two years since then, the percentage of e-commerce in retail has jumped to between 26 per cent and 30 per cent. An acceleration of that kind in just two years since the pandemic struck would be massive, Anurag Batra points out.
Addressing the Indian economy, the country had 10 million retail investors, which has swelled to over 25 million in the past few years, driven by new-age apps such as Zerodha. Technology IPOs have seen great success, at least at listing — driven by these investors, says Batra.
With these information Anurag Batra confirms the technological development that has occurred in India in the recent past years. This technological acceleration and the digitalization of the economy has helped India in recovering from the pandemic at a much easier pace. Digital economy was not familiar Indians before the pandemic. But digitalization has so well deep rooted in India during the pandemic that, even the smallest of manual work are now done digitally by Indians. India has recovered faster than any country in the world post-pandemic and I am sure we will remain on target to be a $5 trillion economy before the decade is out, Anurag expresses his hope.
Anurag Batra concluded on the note saying that, digital adoption and easier access to information has also led to twisting of information and fake news. Abundance of information is leading to dissonance of opinions on very small issues to bigger matters including Russia — Ukraine war. Information wars are preceding real conflicts, and then escalating them. Years of cultural and ideological conditioning supplemented with incessant fake news has often fructified into hard-line opinions and strategies.

At BW Businessworld BW Accelerate is an initiative started by Anurag Batra to provide a structured platform to entrepreneurs for mentorship and growth.
Anurag Batra in his latest article, articulates his views on the progress made by India as a country in its 75 years of independence. “Talking of progress, India at 75 is a nation that has made giant strides in science and technology. It now strives to establish itself as a leader in the field, evident in the whopping Rs 14,217 crore budgetary allocation for the Union ministry of science and technology for the 2022-23 fiscal. Agrarian India will transform too, with the government investing in another technology-driven Green Revolution. Yes, we are moving in the right direction with science and technology”, Anurag Batra expressed his hopes for the country.
Tumblr media
Anurag Batra also highlighted another area where India has made considerable progress – Inclusion. He says that India at 75 values diversity, equity, and inclusion. According to Mr. Batra, India is in a better place with gender equality today and more opportunities are available for women. But there is so much more to be done. He asserts that the focus of the country should be women in rural India, considering that agriculture is still the occupation of a majority of Indians, half of whom are women. “Women comprise 48 per cent of the rural population. Even though agriculture contributes to around 18 per cent of India’s GDP, it is the primary source of income for half our population. We must provide access to healthcare, education and economic development for these women to be able to make a real difference to our society”, says Mr. Batra.
Gender inequality is a global issue. Reports suggest that gender inequality has cost the world $70 trillion since 1990. Anurag Batra expressed his concern that even in developed economies, women don’t earn as much as men and that they are not really equally represented in industry, business and politics. In the developing part of the world, they definitely enjoy less advantages in terms of education and healthcare. A change can only occur when each individual considers himself a stakeholder in gender equity. “Each of us should encourage, support, and mentor young women and help them achieve their dreams. It would be the right path toward creating a progressive world”, Anurag Batra concluded.

“Media mavericks turns to tech as they chart a unique growth course for the Indian economy” – Anurag Batra
Anurag Batra is the Chairman & Editor-in-Chief of the BW Businessworld Group and the Founder & Editor-in-Chief of the exchange4media Group. He is an entrepreneur, journalist, an angel investor and a media observer. Batra talks about the announcement of the Union Ministry of Information and Broadcasting in November 2020, that digital audio-visual content, including films and web shows on over-the-top (OTT) streaming platforms and news and current affairs on online platforms, would be brought within its purview. “The decision evoked a mixed response. Some welcomed the regulation, while others questioned the government intervention, saying it interfered with creative expression”, states Anurag Batra.
Tumblr media
Dr. Anurag Batra brings into view that while this is about the growth in digital, facts have proved that ‘digital’ has become too broad a term from what it once was. “Specific attention needs to be placed on some of its aspects, which are now becoming industries in their own right. All the government initiatives simply underscore the tremendous promise the sector holds for the country. Media is the only vehicle that truly and directly reaches consumers. It is a pull medium. Compelling content, engagement and overall entertainment attract people, demanding their time and attention. These attributes in turn provide an opportunity to large companies, institutions, the government, etc. to address consumers and engage with them through messages and calls to action”, affirms Anurag Batra.
Media, hence, is the original direct-to-consumer (D2C) interface. Mediatech is a wave pushed forth by startups and young entrepreneurs with the ambition to take homegrown media and social media platforms around India and beyond. “Right now, they are doing a good job, perhaps because there clearly is a space for it. This industry attracts optimism. That being said, mediatech is not limited to startups but is also being embraced by traditional media companies that now prefer to call themselves content brands instead of broadcast or newspaper and the likes. The move is in the right direction. We focus on the fast-growing Mediaech subsector, look closely at how technology is disrupting some other sectors and the role that leadership plays in moving the baton forward”, concludes Anurag Batra.

Anurag Batra believes in experience, rather than failures
Anurag Batra, Chairman & Editor-in-Chief of the BW Businessworld grew up in a middle-class family in Gurgaon. He became a first-generation entrepreneur, after acquiring the iconic business media and magazine brand BW Business World, a 35-year strong media brand as well as the most respected business publication in the country.
Tumblr media
After his undergraduate studies, Batra went to an engineering school and then to a business school. While he was doing his business studies, he had very limited ambition. During that period, his ambition was to join an IT services company in marketing. Just like his wish, he got placement through campus selection. But just before he joined the firm, came the turning point of his life. Through his friend, Anurag Batra met the people who were setting up Colliers Jardine in India.

It was started to build a B-to-B exchange for buying and selling of media time and space. It was a failure for the first 3 years and then it evolved into a daily newsletter for the media advertising communication industry.
We are in a culture where all of us want to get ahead, all of us have deadlines, dreams ambitions, goals whether materialistic or non-materialistic. Anurag Batra thinks the notion of helping others may sound little earlier to some people who may do it consciously. “It may be a notion that is real but all of us are very individualistic. All of us want to do well in life, all of us don’t find time for ourselves when you talk about helping others and you know all of us are struggling”, says Anurag Batra. Even in his busy schedule, Anurag Batra spends time introducing people to people. Some of them ask for introduction, but he also does it even for people who don’t ask for introduction. It is something in which he invests his energy, time and mind. Anurag Batra believes that it is his duty to help people in some way.
