And with that, ladies and gentlemen, let's move forward to the welcome address for which please help me welcome the editor for Realty Plus, Ms. Sapna Srivastava. Could we have a huge round of applause, ladies and gentlemen? We have Ms. Sapna Srivastava welcoming her. For the welcome address, please. Dear delegates, speakers, our partners and sponsors, a very warm welcome on behalf of the entire Realty Plus team to the 9th Realty Plus Conclave and Excellence Awards North. Friends, there are many who are joining us for the first time at this event, so to give a brief introduction of what Realty Plus is, it is a real estate based publication, a monthly publication from the Exchange for Media Group and this is, we have just completed 12 years in the real estate sector. This is the 9th year of Realty Plus Conclave and Excellence Awards. We have been conducting these events across the country in the cities of Delhi, Mumbai, Bangalore, Kolkata, Pune and Ahmedabad. We are also coming up with new products every year to make value addition to the industry in our own way. We have just concluded the coffee table book, Mughals of Real Estate, where we summarized top 100 developers from across the country. This coffee table, we will be presenting later in the day. At the same time, we have launched another coffee table book, which is Homes for All. The budget housing projects from across the country that we will be featuring in this coffee table book. While we have been appreciating and acknowledging the real estate professionals, the developers, the financiers and the reactors, product companies is something that we think that we should be also acknowledging their participation and partnership with these realty professionals. So we are coming soon with interior and exterior awards, which are for these product companies, where the awards will acknowledge, the duty will acknowledge innovation, innovation in product design and application, innovation in product marketing and branding, innovation in products, consumer-centric technologies and marketers of the year. So some very new initiatives that we are taking at our end, but we all recognize that last few years have been very difficult for the real estate sector. There have been many new changes, many new transformations, and it's a learning curve for all of us. But yes, as most of us, we know it's a short-term pain for a long-term gain. So we all are looking forward to some very good times for the real estate sector. And that is what our conclave today will be discussing on. Our panel discussion on affordable housing. Is it going to be a game changer for the industry? This is one of the discussions that we will have. Another experts' debate will be on RERA. Now that RERA is a reality, developers have registered, they are registering. What are the implications? That's another point of discussion we have. We also have a very wonderful presentation on what should be the approach of developers towards construction. The sustainable approach. We know construction is imminent. We have to construct homes, offices, retail spaces. But how can we be more sustainable, more environment-friendly? So friends, very thought-provoking conclave we have. I request all the delegates to actively participate in all these discussions. And let's have a wonderful conference. So friends, thank you all once again for joining us here today. And we look forward to having a great day. So thank you all and enjoy the day. Thank you.


Good afternoon everybody and welcome to Unfiltered. Pastor David, welcome. Thank you, John. Pastor, last night was the first GOP debate and I was reading that DeSantis was of course part of the debate and that some of the some other of the candidates that were there and some of the reports were reporting that it was pretty much a bust and that according to different sources DeSantis was avoiding being attacked and just wasn't a good turnout. Yet Tucker Carlson has Donald Trump on the show and the ratings were over 84 million views. Does that have anything to say with the GOP political candidates for president candidates? I think that these kinds of things are intended to cause the viewers to have an opportunity to see how the various contestants if you will, because more like contests, you know, the candidates can respond to questions that that the average American might have and all and that's what they're supposed to produce is a clarity between the candidates as to why I would like this man over that person or this woman over that guy and all of that of course. So this isn't this is early, you know, this is the first debate. You wouldn't really expect an awful lot plus you really wouldn't expect the front-runner Trump to necessarily be involved in it. He's already spent four years as a president and he already has a, you know, a list of accomplishments that he can point to. So I'm not quite sure whether or not this debate needed to include him because he's already in the mind of many people, the front-runner and according to all the polls, he's way out in front of his closest competition, which would be DeSantis. So from that angle, you wouldn't expect him to be involved in any debates until it's necessary for him to be so. So being on Tucker, which is interesting to hear because Tucker was fired by Fox, you know, for some things that were allegedly incorrect and thus he was released. It's interesting that he has that great of viewership or listenership, you know. Tucker Carlson is very popular and it only shows that. And so I think that Trump being a businessman and having an awareness of things like that, probably made the most, the wisest decision he could make by doing something like that. He gets all of these views and all of these people are listening to him, but frankly, those who hate him will never be open to any ideas he might have and will never give him any credit for the things that he accomplished. So we're looking at, many are looking at others and different options. So the one who I think stands out is going to be the DeSantis. But they have the other contenders, you know, some of them that shouldn't really, I don't think in my opinion, should even be up there in the stage. You know, Christie, for example, is basically said from what I understand that he's there to try and derail Trump. He doesn't even really seem to believe he has an opportunity or a chance to become the president. He simply wants to attack Trump for whatever reason he might have. And then you have the others who are new and all of that. So this is early. It really doesn't matter that much. What I'm more interested in is the nonsense that the Democratic Party spews in relation to these things. Because they must honestly believe that Americans have the incapacity to reason. They have to. I mean, when you have surrogates for Biden, even though it's under Biden's name in his tweets or whatever he's doing, it says from him, you know, and I know that it's not him who's tweeting anything, he doesn't stay up past nine o'clock. So he's not watching anything. I don't really believe that this man who is called president has any business being it holding the office he has. I have, you know, a real disdain for all that he stands for and all that he's done. And he and his special interests, including his son, have really made the name of the United States, see the off scouring of the world. He's brought us into disrepute in a way that no president up to this point, I think, has ever done. So when you have that kind of thing going, when you have Biden who won't debate anybody, when you have Biden who doesn't debate, making comments about another debate, though it's not him who's making the comments, it just shows you how ridiculous things are. So this is the beginning. They all have their ideas. They're trying to sell their ideas. What this really is, is to see who's going to be the nominee for the vice president. That's really what I think this is. And so, you know, America will be given opportunity to determine who they think should be the one second in command, if you will, the vice president, because that person, if Trump wins, is going to be the successor to him. And so that, I think, would be much more interesting who's going to come in second place, and who's going to be appointed or requested. I wouldn't be surprised if Tim Scott isn't the person. I think that Republicans would do well to have somebody like him. I think DeSantis has done a great job, has done a great job in Florida. There are some others who I think probably could bring some fresh ideas and fresh blood into the Republican Party. But I think we're bent on just keeping the old people in. And this is probably going to be for another unfiltered, but even looking at the Democratic side and the corruption that's going on, and even possibly still in another election. So I mean, I don't even want to think about how we would be another four years under this type of presidency. It would be difficult. That'll be another for another unfiltered. But I want to thank you, pastor, for joining us, as you always do. I want to remind you that we have our services at 830 and 1045. Pastor David, you're taking us through the conversion of Saul. A powerful, powerful study. So we look forward to having you guys come out and look forward to joining us in this study. Invite a friend and your family members to come out and join us. Thank you again for joining us today. And God bless you.
