Uma Kashvi's uncle Vijay quit his job, refrained from marriage & travelled for 500+ matches for her. Mom Vijitha has travelled for more than 400, working from grounds to support.

Manchester United brought so much pain and misery to my childhood. I could never imagine they would become such a potent source of joy and laughter in my adulthood.
These are insane rainrate which one will see in life. Kathivakkam has got 260 mm. Of which, 148 mm fell in an hour. I have never seen such rain rates in Chennai. Areas close to sea are pounded.
The clouds have covered south Chennai too, entire Chennai should be getting rains now.
How many protestors can this government detain? How many young voices can the BJP silence?
The more young people they jail, the more ordinary citizens, with no political affiliation, will take to the streets and show them the true power of the people!
Solidarity with @AshutoshRanka and @SauravDassss! The DMK stands ready to provide them with all necessary legal representation and support. ✊🏾

The response of @DKShivakumar and @PriyankKharge are welcome and reflects their accountability. Beyond what is said, the Licensing Order, 2021 by Commissioner of Police, Bangalore, restricting protests to Freedom Park, brought in when there was a BJP government, must be withdrawn
🚨 Heavy crowds at present during the Opposition’s march towards the Supreme Court in Delhi. People are standing above the buses as INDIA bloc leaders and supporters press ahead with the protest against CEC Gyanesh Kumar.
Visuals from the ground.
What a country we have become!
A big shout-out to all the young lawyers who ensure the release of all detainees every evening!
This fight goes on because we do not fight it alone. Journalists reporting the truth despite unlawful repression, lawyers holding the police to the law, lakhs and lakhs of first-time protesters fighting tooth and nail, giving actual blood to keep democracy alive.
This frame is the entirety of the BJP's problem. They spent 12 years, and oodles of money, to frame Indian politics as a binary -- a choice between Modi and Rahul Gandhi. And to denigrate the latter to the point where the choice was seemingly no choice at all.
Many stayed away because to oppose Modi was ipso facto seen as to support RG.
That is what has shifted. For the disaffected, it is no longer a binary. Don't like the Congress? No matter -- there is the CJP. Ambivalent about the CJP? There is Neha Bora.
You can now stand for a cause without that stance being openly linked to a preference for a particular Opposition politician.
And that is also the BJP's biggest failing: Modi's aura has been brutally punctured in the previous GenZ protests. And the party has no other leader who can come forward to give Modi some badly needed air cover, some breathing space.
In a big setback to the country, striving to hosts Olympics in 2036 and its athletes, Indian wrestlers, who are 20 or below and unemployed, denied visas for U23 Worlds scheduled in Las Vegas, USA from Oct 12 to 18. @indraneel0@Xpress_Sports https://t.co/6CWWA1yH3A
@h3nd00 Hello, Liam. Good day. This is Swaroop, a sports journalist with The New Indian Express, an Indian daily. Any way to get in touch with you? Cheers.
@stateofplayclub Was around in a few leagues immediately post Covid resumption as well. But too early to say it would be here to stay. Uefa have already said it won't be there in the euros. Top leagues ll not touch it. Think it ll be a one off (especially if this fifa regime leaves).
