New Year wishes are fine, but as a Delhite, my hope is for less political blame games and more concrete development. The Yamuna still looks terrible and traffic is a nightmare. Hope 2026 is the year our leaders actually "work together" as they all say.

Everyone from the PM to the LoP is tweeting greetings. Good to see a moment of unity. Now, let's see the same cooperative spirit in Parliament when discussing important bills. Here's to a productive 2026 for the nation! 🇮🇳

Prosperity and development sound great, but it must reach the common person. I hope this year brings down inflation and creates more job opportunities for the youth. That's the real New Year gift we need. Fingers crossed! 🤞
