🏳️🌈 An all-male @BJYM contingent blocked the route of the first-ever #ThanePride yesterday.
The Police in our @BJP4India-ruled state did not move them or let us complete the march.
Why do #LGBTQIA+ people produce such disquiet in the minds of those who subscribe to RSS ideology?
In 2008, PM #ManmohanSingh advocated for a more tolerant society & said that #Sec377 needed to go.
After the Delhi HC judgment, his UPA supported decriminalization, asking that appeals against the verdict be dismissed.
Queer tributes to this beacon of progressive values, today.
This is incredibly dangerous. It lays the path for centralized, device-level client side scanning.

VANDE BHARAT | We've decided to prick the 'Vande Bharat' bubble. Analysis of IRCTC booking data reveals that over 50% of Vande Bharat runs either operate with empty or partially filled seats.
This data, sourced from IRCTC just hours before train departures, focuses solely on the General category, excluding Tatkal bookings. Despite the holiday season prompting increased travel among families nationwide, bookings for Vande Bharat remain surprisingly low.
Moreover, this data highlights a concerning trend regarding economic disparities. Affluent regions demonstrate a higher ability to afford Vande Bharat, while economically disadvantaged areas struggle to access these costly services.
You may ask a question what if these routes have less passengers in general? Good question, but see the next tweet for answers (1/3)

मैं @dhruv_rathee से असहमत हूँ। #DhruvRathee को यहाँ आ कर देखना चाहिए कि यहाँ कितना लोकतंत्र है। समस्या ये नहीं कि लोकतंत्र की कमी है, बल्कि मैं तो मानता हूँ कि देश में कुछ ज़्यादा ही लोकतंत्र है।

I understand (with some difficulty) why his family might want him around, but why is the Gujarat Hugh Court so benevolent? Are you the Law or his in-laws?
