So the much learned, argumentative and much sensible person like @Mahmudabad has been arrested for his fully democratic remarks, but the foul mouthed minister from Madhya Pradesh is allowed to roam free with full security and protocol.
Disgraceful, undemocratic, pathetic. That's what it is.
all pvt univs who want to be "Harvard of India" must know currently Harvard is fighting US president, losing 1 billion $ in funds & staring at long legal battles
Sonepat 'Harvards' must take note esp when profs are arrested for FB posts-- Indian academic freedom is almost over!
The most damning aspect of that Blume Ventures report that pointed out that around 800 million Indians essentially have only enough money to survive: it wasn't written by any western NGO or think tank.
It's essentially meant for businesses, for devising consumer strategy
India is spending millions to host the 2036 Olympics. But guess what?
The school Children in India are served yellow turmeric rice as Mid day meal vs the Chinese Children get a full course meal. Imagine how much wrong we set our priorities.
Profound sadness to learn of Zakia Jafri’s passing
She's one of India’s bravest
She took on the might of CM & PM Modi in her fight for justice for the brutal mass killing of her heroic husband Ehsan Jafri
Justice can be our only fitting tribute to her

We are deeply saddened to hear that our Citizen Ambassador, Tapan Kumar Bose, passed away this morning. Our heartfelt condolences go out to his family and loved ones. He significantly contributed to the Rohingya cause, and we were honoured to have him in our coalition.

There's been a terrible tragedy at #KumbhMela2025. News channels shld give us wall to wall live coverage of what went wrong & who is accountable. But these channels fed on Yogi ads & Kumbh ads showing PM Modi's election speech live. Time for ads but not for Journalism from Kumbh
In 2013 during the Mahakumbh at Prayagraj, there was a stampede at a railway station due to a change in platform of a train where 13 people had died. The fault was of the railways but the media had sought accountability from the then UP chief minister and the UP government. The massive tragedy today that has resulted in dozens of lives being lost has not resulted in any accountability seeking from Adityanath or his government. On the contrary Noida anchors were breathlessly awaiting the pushp varsha in the morning while pretending nothing had happened. This is the difference between 2013 and 2025.
In my years as District Magistrate when India was burning with the Babri Masjid movement, a vicious hate-mongering voice was of Sadhvi Rithambara
Today she is picked up for India's third highest civilian honour
India is utterly disgraced by the Padma Bhushan for Sadhvi Rithambara
Govt has no data on-
PM cares
Unemployment
Electoral Bonds
Covid Deaths
But they have all the data on Mahakumbh-
2 crore took dip daily.
40 crore will do it eventually.
2-4 lakh crores revenue will be generated.
Wonder how they are getting these numbers? Dreams?
