I got a visa to India and was supposed to leave this morning to attend the Bharat Summit in Hyderabad. I had been invited as a panelist and speaker on the future of media and press freedom.
But «orders from above» in the Ministry of Home Affairs have cancelled my visa.
Here is my message for @AmitShah
Umar Khalid spent years telling India what this government’s idea of development really looked like. Six years in prison later, people are beginning to see what he was talking about. Imagine being jailed for saying things that people would eventually have to learn for themselves.
I never understood what drives an adult middle class man to "defend" his favourite multi-billionaire or ultra-corrupt politician as if his life depended on it. Neither the rich nor the powerful give two shits about you. The guy that you are arguing with may become a good friend if you talk to him nicely. I think some people are born with a slave mindset, nothing else explains this
@DMRI05 i doubt future managers or players signing for them would think twice. as much as i want them to be stripped and relegated, i doubt its gonna happen
