Saddened (but not surprised) that the new Jallianwala Bagh monument in Amritsar is a gaudy monstrosity. Glad I visited when it was still possible to experience the scene of the massacre with appropriate simplicity and solemnity. https://t.co/PhHrfqzKkz
The last US flight left Afghanistan and Taliban has full control of HKIA. Broken beyond repair. Kabul my home. my betrayed family and friends. My betrayed army. My betrayed country. I am sorry 😢 I have never felt this helpless all my life. 💔 #AfghanistanCatastrophe
I don’t know who is the brain behind defacing both the soul and the body of Jallianwala Bagh. It was and will remain sombre and grave. People were mercilessly killed. To have a son et lumiere and that wretched design shows how removed we are from any level of refinement.
Taliban’s segregation policy in the education field is an irrefutable fact that women & girls will not have the same opportunity to get an education. Their inhuman treatment means to discourage the participation of women. Pic: a male dominated session discussing education policy.
Taliban started door to door search looking for govt officials, former police & security forces members & those who worked for foreign countries NGOs or infrastructures in Afghanistan.
At least 3 journalists' houses were searched in the last hour.
Kabul is now becoming deadly..
Most television channels have moderated their broadcasting.
Most channels have taken their female anchors off the screen.
No music has been played in most channels since this morning.
Media is going toward Talibanization.
India announced a new category of electronic visas to fast-track applications of #Afghans for entry into #India from #Afghanistan.

Millions of people have been internally displaced in recent months. The dreadful violence and the surge in fleeing the war are occurring during one of the biggest global health emergencies due to Covid-19 Pandemic. @RamizAlakbarov@AurvasiPatel@Refugees@UNHCRAfg
1-2 “The Taliban have direct connections to other terrorist organizations, are responsible for 90 percent of the global heroin trade and despise any modern, enlightened, democratic order. They commit crimes against humanity - for me they are terrorists,” says @BakhtariManizha
Afghanistan’s fall to #Taliban doesn’t augur well for our country. It’ll strengthen the Sino-Pak nexus against India (China has already sought militia’s help on Uyghur). The signs are not at all good, we need to be extra vigilant now at all our borders.
After the second wave of Covid-19, several state governments have announced their decisions on reopening education institutions
Here is a list of the states and the date of reopening of schools in them

The problems humanity faces today demand a positive mental attitude and a sense of compassion for others. I firmly believe we can solve the majority of our problems by developing a sense of universal responsibility—wanting to do something for others without a selfish motive.
