Had a deeply emotional and heartrending conversation with Shri Sibi Joseph, the father of young Anna Sebastian, who passed away after a cardiac arrest, following four months of deeply stressful seven-day weeks of 14 hours a day at Ernst&Young. He suggested, and I agreed, that I raise the issue of legislating, through Parliament, a fixed calendar for all workplaces, whether in the private sector or the public, that would not exceed eight hours a day, five days a week. Inhumanity at the workplace must be legislated out of existence with stringent punishment and fines for offenders. Human rights do not stop at the workplace! Will raise this matter at the first opportunity during the next session of parliament.
Serious questions need to be asked of P T Usha, the entire official entourage accompanying Indian athletes to Paris the sports science managers & India’s IOC member Mrs Nita Ambani in the Phogat medal fiasco. Did they act at all? Or conspiracy against the fiery rebel wrestler who had a point to prove
Since "sources" are so eager to leak stuff to journalists -- like Modi's calls to PT Usha -- can they also leak which Indian official was responsible for watching Vinesh's weight? Who messed up?
Names please.
@jackhawkski Hello, I'm a freelance journalist working on a story about the 2015 National Maternity Safety Ambition plan & the state of maternal care services in UK. I've been trying to message you, would it be possible to open your DM so we can discuss this further? Thank you.
Do watch this brilliant response by @_YogendraYadav when the Anchor said "BJP itself is more than the entire INDIA block put together, What do you have to say about that".
Journalists who actively promoted Hindu-Muslim divide, show after show, article after article, may suddenly discover secularism and more things now. Good. But one should never forget what they did, because they will go back to their old ways at the first opportunity.
For many of in the South who have had the feeling that states like Uttar Pradesh drag our democracy down, this election is a lesson in humility.
Thank you #peopleofuttarpradesh
INDIA alliance may not even form the government, but look at the sheer collective joy among people at the very thought of BJP not getting a majority on its own. BJP has drained the joy and happiness from this country for a decade.
Irrespective of whether INDIA forms the government or not, this is a significant election result for the country. It decimates the mainstream perception of the BJP’s invincibility. We now know that the fascists can be voted out, if not today then tomorrow.
If the Indian media doesn't bootlick, if the government agencies remain fair, the BJP can't even cross 150 on its own.
Modi isn't a wave, it's propaganda created by corporations and the media to exploit your religious sentiment.
