Hello @ECISVEEP, my account was used to delete somebody's name from electoral roll. This was not me! Also checked on the portal. Only got below message.

Muhammad Ali Jinnah's grandson, Nusli Wadia, was the main funder of the Jana Sangh and later the BJP. He had exclusive freedom to walk into the PMO anytime while the BJP was in power.

Will the BJP hide these facts today?

The irony is impossible to ignore: the BJP's foundation was laid with money from Jinnah's bloodline.

In Finland, charging fees for tuition is illegal, which means rich kids have to mix with normal kids. That means rich families had to make sure the schools their children attended were good, which in turn prompted the wealthy to invest in public education.
Finland, take a bow.

Prime Minister Research Chair is a great idea - top research talent must be brought back to India - whatever the cost.
But all this would be headline management & optics if the Govt is not able to stem the brain drain that hasn't spared even India's premier ISRO.

The preambular promises of Liberty, Equality & Fraternity in our Constitution came from the French Revolution. There is a straight line from the Russian revolution to our directive principles of state policy. Removing international historical context which influenced Indian thinking, from our text books, is an invitation to stunted minds and limited vision.

Nobody wants #Journalism to die. The person who can save this today is @sudhirchaudhary. Convince him to end his farcical show on TV. Take him to Tihar.
If Sudhir wants to make a point, he can start by becoming an official party spokesperson but please spare Journalism. Don't turn your profession into political campaign tool.

Historic Judgement by Justice Purnendu Singh of the Patna HC. ☺️

So the story is - On Jan 19, 2008, a girl with her father went to Chaya Studio owned by Shri Himanshu Kumar Pathak ji in Amarpur, Bihar for a photograph.

Pathak ji asked her father to remain outside on the pretext that he needed to check the photos on the computer.

He then locked the door from inside and undressed himself.

Pathakji removed her salwar, and forcefully started pressing her chest.

The girl started crying and screaming. Hearing her cries, when her father forced open the door, Pathakji fled.

The Additional Sessions Judge in Banka, Bihar then convicted Pathakji in attempt to r@pe charges.

On this 9 July, the Bench of Justice Purnendu Singh held that attempting to remove a woman’s salwar and pressing her chest does “not unequivocally establish" an attempt to rape and acquitted Shri Himanshu Kumar Pathak ji.

The court said there was no evidence of penetration "even to the slightest extent" to establish attempt to r@pe. ☺️

In a patriarchal society, a woman fought for 18 years. I even cannot imagine the hurdles she faced in her quest for justice and to punish her molester, only to see this day. Can you?

However, according to sources, the judgment has triggered a wave of jubilation among all the existing, potential, and future rapists and molesters in India.

Congratulations. ☺️

The rotten Indian judiciary is the one enabling hate attacks on Muslims & their properties across the country. Time to remember DY Chandrachud who twisted the Places of Worship Act to enable Hindutva goons to attack mosques.

The last chap who physically demolished a university, was possibly Bhaktiyar Khilji in the 1300’s.

[Supriya Shrinate @SupriyaShrinate]

They are now going to bulldoze a University!

That’s how vindictive this illiterate BJP-Sanghi brigade is.

They give a damn about education and the future of youth.

Bulldozing a university…pause and think!

[Apoorvanand अपूर्वानंद @Apoorvanand__]

Read it carefully: they are bulldozing a university! And they want us to believe that this is only because the buildings were unapproved.

A model of analytical clarity, rigorous data analysis and simple presentation that debunks a political lie about illegal migrants.
Thanks @AbhishekShaw
