Sandeep Chaudhary — A journalist was arrested just bcz he showed ‘Namak-roti’ being served in a school in UP. Why the journalist who called Vedant a Pakistani should not be arrested?

BJP spokes — No answer

Ashok Shrivastava should not be let go away, he must be arrested.

[Ashish Joshi @bismil_prasad]

I write as a student of history.

History will be brutally cruel to Hon'ble CJI Ranjan Gogoi, D.Y. Chandrachud, and Surya Kant et al.

Like judges under Hitler who swore personal loyalty to the Führer and turned courts into regime weapons, these men presided over the slow death of judicial independence in India

Ranjan Gogoi: Fast-tracked Ayodhya to favour the regime. Sealed covers in Rafale. Ignored Kashmir habeas corpus while prioritising a "land dispute." Sexual harassment allegations handled in a kangaroo court he himself led. Reward? Rajya Sabha seat. Classic post-retirement payoff.

D.Y. Chandrachud: Master of the roster who delayed critical cases against power — electoral bonds struck down too late, bail pleas of dissenters buried. Ayodhya bench justified majoritarianism. Prayers before verdicts and public Ganesh Puja with the PM? Optics of captured judiciary.

Surya Kant: Part of benches delivering selective justice. Controversial remarks and decisions that echo executive comfort over constitutional duty. When judges start sounding like regime defenders, the institution is in ICU.

Under them, Supreme Court became an "Executive Court" — dual system where ordinary cases limp along, but politically sensitive ones deliver predictable outcomes.

History judged Nazi-era judges harshly for enabling persecution under the colour of law. Yours won't be kinder.
The records are unforgiving.

Yesterday, I posted about my sibling’s petrol car getting stranded on the road due to a fuel pump failure. The company itself confirmed it was linked to a fuel blending issue related to ethanol.

But unfortunately, I had to delete the post because of immense pressure from higher authorities. For the first time in my life, I was forced to take down something purely out of concern for family safety and precautions.

The unfortunate truth is that whenever someone speaks up about ethanol-related issues, attempts are made to silence them. This may continue, but these problems won’t disappear and tomorrow it could be my own car stranded the same way.

Ashok Shrivastav shouldn't be allowed to get away with an apology. He should be fired from his job.

Put yourself in Vedant's place.

You studied hard for your exam. You wrote your paper well. But CBSE goofed up with your paper and gave you low marks.

You are under tremendous stress. You take to social media to highlight the issue. But a DD News anchor labels you ‘Pakistani.’

And that anchor is paid with your father's tax money.

Now, imagine the trauma.

You might ask why Education Minister Dharmendra Pradhan has not been asked to resign despite multiple scams with NEET exams & now the irregularities in CBSC results.

It’s because ministers are usually made to resign to pacify public anger. It is done to show that the govt is taking concerns seriously.

There is a LOT of public anger today. But why’s the govt then being shameless?

BECAUSE - public sentiment doesn’t matter to them. When elections are rigged with the help of ECI itself, public sentiment is irrelevant. If elections can be “won” through manipulation, why would they care what people think?

The root of all problems today is the rigging of elections & a compromised ECI and electoral system.

If we don’t fix that first on priority, your voice is irrelevant for the govt because it has no effect.

IMPORTANT: Gurmeet Ram Rahim Singh (Dera Sacha Sauda chief) granted parole once again, this time for 30 days. It’s the 16th time he has been out on parole since his conviction in August 2017.
He is serving a 20-year sentence for rape. Meanwhile likes of Umar Khaled have stayed in jail for almost 6 years without even a trial commencing. Yeh hai JUSTICE system: Wonder what our Lordships would pontificate on next! 🙏

[Umashankar Singh उमाशंकर सिंह @umashankarsingh]

This is India's ‘FREE PRESS’ !

He's an anchor on Doordarshan, a central government TV channel. He's always spewing venom. When a child questioned the flaws in the CBSE exam testing, this national channel anchor @AshokShrivasta6 labeled him a P@kistani child. Imagine the mental trauma the child and his entire family must have suffered!

This is a serious crime. It's online bullying. If it were any other country, he would be in jail for violating child rights. But the @narendramodi government won't take action against this anchor. If they do, we'll let you know.

This is PRESS FREEDOM here… you can FREELY commit any crime while sitting in the government's lap.

Thank you

VERY IMPORTANT (because the media won’t tell you this):

PM Modi has been running a fake & malicious agenda for the last few days claiming that his Govt wants “early reservations for women in Parliament”. In reality, Modi is using women as an excuse to bulldoze his real agenda of delimitation (which is redrawing boundaries of Lok Sabha & Assembly seats in states to benefit the BJP)

Here’s the truth:

👉 Women’s Reservation was passed by Parliament in 2023. At that time, Opposition parties pointed out that the Bill would delay 33% women’s reservation till 2034 & demanded that it be implemented immediately

👉 Govt ignored the Opposition & said women’s reservation will happen after the 2026 Census followed by delimitation to increase total number of seats in Parliament

👉 Now, suddenly, just when Bengal & Tamil Nadu are going to elections, Modi decides that delimitation will be done BEFORE 2026 Census. Instead of conducting delimitation based on India’s actual population, the Modi Govt has come up with its own unknown formula

👉 But it will be IMPOSSIBLE to sell this sudden delimitation idea to the nation which has no basis. Therefore, Modi Govt is pushing a sudden delimitation claiming that “it will help in earlier implementation of women’s reservation”

Now, here are some questions that expose Modi’s real agenda & deception:

1. What is the connection between delimitation & women’s reservation? What is stopping the Govt from immediately implementing women’s reservation on the existing 543 seats in Lok Sabha without delimitation?

2. Why is the Parliament session being called from 16-18th April in the middle of Bengal & TN elections? Why could this not be done just 10 days later after voting is done in these 2 states?

3. Today, my party TMC has 39% women MPs in Parliament. Mamata Banerjee didn’t need any “law” to give women their due representation. In contrast, how many women MPs does Modi’s BJP have? ONLY 13%
So what has stopped Modi & BJP all this while from having at least 33% women MPs in Parliament & setting an example?

4. Where is a copy of the proposed Bill that the Govt wants to bring to Parliament in just 3 days? Why is Modi writing op-eds & conducting PR exercises instead of releasing a copy of the proposed Bill so that it can be studied?

It is utterly dishonest & shameful that Modi is cheating the women of India by linking their right to representation to delimitation. There’s nothing that stops his Govt from implementing women’s reservation immediately. Even the Opposition supports that.

But the real agenda is to change the boundaries of Lok Sabha & Assembly seats across states to benefit the BJP. The SIR process should make it clear how Modi-Shah are now desperate & will use delimitation to manipulate the entire electoral process just for clinging on to power.

The manner in which Chief Justice Surya Kant’s bench is handling the #BengalSIR matter does not augur well for the institution at all. The apex court is increasingly being perceived as an active player in West Bengal’s politics, especially after today’s order directing an NIA investigation. Instead of deciding the constitutionality of the SIR process and laying down clear limits on the powers of a clearly partisan Election Commission, Chief Justice Kant’s bench appears to have taken a keen interest in ADMINISTERING the process itself, effectively ensuring that the SIR proceeds without any hindrance. The companion judges on the bench, Justices Joymala Bagchi and Vipul Pancholi, have taken no objection to this approach, which is all the more disquieting. Certain observations from the bench, for instance, one not able to vote in this election can vote in the next, reflects a totally cavalier approach to serious allegations of mass disenfranchisement. These have only deepened concerns and invited further criticism of the court. At a time when the capture of a constitutional institution like the Election Commission is complete, the manner in which the Supreme Court has proceeded in this politically fraught matter raises dangerous questions about the role it is choosing to play.

The Court’s INACTION and delay in the AAP-Delhi constitutional crisis created conditions that enabled a political outcome favourable to the BJP. In the Bengal matter, however, the Court is not inactive, but ACTIVELY engaged in a manner that may have significant political consequences for yet another opposition-led government. The Supreme Court’s role is to create a just, fair, and equal level playing field to the greatest extent possible. In the Bengal SIR case, the Court is being seen as creating something totally opposite.

Chief Justice Kant’s bench ought to have confined itself to deciding the legality of the SIR process, particularly given that it was initiated just months before an election with great hurry, leading to mass disenfranchisement of citizens, rather than allowing the judiciary, including the state judiciary, to become entangled in the administration of a politically sensitive process. The use of judicial officers for the SIR process, the appointment of High Court judges as appellate authorities, etc. is the greatest sign of how the Supreme Court is being run like a Khap Panchayat. These do nothing but risk doing grave disservice to the institution of the judiciary, whose credibility ultimately rests on public trust and a perception of unimpeachable integrity. Once that image erodes, only chaos reigns supreme. Chief Justice Kant’s bench have totally ignored and disregarded these dangerous concerns. Might I add that equally troubling is the silence of the Bar, which is meant to act as a check on the Bench.

Whichever way the Bengal elections unfold, the role of the Supreme Court judges in this episode will not be forgotten.

[Rajdeep Sardesai @sardesairajdeep]

IMPORTANT: SC Justice Joymalya Bagchi during SIR hearing : "If someone cannot vote in this election.. does not mean their right can be deprived forever". Sorry your Lordship, EVERY Indian citizen has a right to vote in EVERY election and the @ECISVEEP is duty bound to ensure that . A vote isn’t a post-dated cheque the state can encash at its convenience. 🙏

This is influencer Mukesh Mohan.
Not long ago, he stormed into the national spotlight by dropping a hard-hitting video on Nitin Gadkari’s alleged beef business — a video that was firmly rooted in The Caravan’s explosive investigative report.
Now, for doing exactly that, the same Mukesh Mohan has been hit with a massive ₹50 crore defamation suit — and an FIR slapped on top of it.
The man has been dragged through Nagpur police stations for the last two days straight, running from one counter to another, while the authorities have already seized one of his phones.
Let this sink in: The Caravan report was the original source that blew the lid off the beef business. Mukesh Mohan simply made a video based on that very report and credible sources.
So tell me — how “justified” is it to file an FIR and slap a ₹50 crore defamation case on an influencer for simply speaking on a story that an award-winning magazine had already exposed?

On 18 March 2026, one of our tweets was blocked in India following an order from the Ministry of Electronics and Information Technology under Section 69A of the IT Act, 2000.

The tweet posted on 14 March 2026 (screenshot attached below) is now inaccessible in India; however, the content remains available elsewhere. The correspondence we received from X support did not contain any information on the reasons for this blocking order.

The tweet was an excerpt from our December 2022 report titled “The submission of India Today Group.” Read the entire report here: https://t.co/2Unqa4tDOV

[Congress Kerala @INCKerala]

Dear @Ceokerala,

BJP candidate from Nemom constituency, Rajeev Chandrasekhar, has not disclosed his residence, a 49,000 sq.ft mansion in Koramangala 3rd Block, Bengaluru, in his affidavit.

This is a 1.07 acre property in one of the most expensive locations in the country, where many Indian billionaires live. Land here costs around ₹35,000 to ₹50,000 per sq.ft or more. By a fair estimate, the land value alone could be around ₹200 crore.

The property number is 408. You can download the property tax receipt using Application Number: 1600322463 from the link below:
https://t.co/0ajN6mffBU

The tax was paid just six days ago on 17th March, which you can verify yourself.

If there is any doubt whether this belongs to the same Rajeev Chandrasekhar, his 2024 affidavit lists the same address, #408, Koramangala 3rd Block, as his residence.

Rajeev Chandrasekhar is a habitual offender and appears to believe he can mislead the Election Commission of India repeatedly. His affidavit even suggests that he owns no residential property or car despite being a billionaire businessman.

We request you to intervene in this matter and disqualify the candidate as per the People's Representation Act. Otherwise, it's only fair for the public to question whether the office is acting impartially.

[Mahua Moitra @MahuaMoitra]
