I am disturbed because every protest in India seems to have the same script. 1. Abuse Lord Ram. 2. Abuse Bharat Mata. 3. Abuse PM Modi. 4. Abuse PM Modi’s late mother. 5. Abuse Brahmins. 6. Abuse Hindutva. No discussion. No solutions. Only slogans, abuse, and chaos. The opposition seems to be living under the illusion that one day they will be able to create a Nepal-like situation in India. No trade deal with the US has even been signed yet, but some farmers are already ready to block Delhi. This is becoming a circus. How can a nation progress when so many people are willing to protest first and verify facts later?

Today marks one of the darkest days in Indian democracy. It is atrocious to watch our children being lathi-charged, tear-gassed, and brutally beaten simply because they were peacefully marching towards the Temple of Democracy to make their voices heard by those in power. I express my deepest solidarity with our youth and strongly condemn this assault on them. Protest and resistance are the lungs of democracy. #ChhatronKiGoonj #JantarMantar

VIDEO | Former India captain Mohammad Azharuddin questioned the national selectors over the omission of prolific domestic performers Auqib Nabi and Sarfaraz Khan from the Test side, saying players are losing faith in the value of domestic cricket if strong performances are not rewarded with opportunities at the highest level. "I feel very sad for Auqib Nabi. He has taken around 60 wickets this season and around 50 last year, but we still don't find him a place in the Test team. It is very disappointing and surprising. Everybody says players have to perform in domestic cricket, but what is the use of playing the domestic season if those performances are not being recognised? Auqib Nabi is a very good Test-match bowler and an excellent exponent of swing bowling," Azharuddin said. "He (Sarfaraz Khan) has been given a chance after the New Zealand series. I don't think they have played him in any matches. I think it is fine if he scored 100 in that game. I mean, you need to give consistent chances. If you don't give chances, it becomes very difficult. He has not been given a chance in Australia also and in England also. So, what does that mean? Or what does that augur? So, I think the selectors need to look into this performance. Because I am very disappointed with the non-inclusion of Aqib Nabi and Sarfaraz. They deserve a lot of chances," he said. (Full video available on PTI Videos - https://t.co/bIyFWTfmBd)
