On this day in year 2000, massacre of 36 Kashmiri Sikhs happened in the village of Chittisinghpura in Indian Occupied Jammu and Kashmir, on the eve of American President Bill Clinton's state visit to India.

Who was behind it?

Former Indian Army General KS Gill explains:

[Raghav Chadha @raghav_chadha]

₹19,000 crore.

That is what Banks collected in last 3 years just for not maintaining ‘Minimum Account Balance.’

Not from the rich. Not from big borrowers.
From the poorest accounts in the system.
Their crime? They didn’t have enough money.

A farmer misses the minimum balance - Penalty.
A pensioner withdraws money for medicine - Penalty.
A daily wage worker falls short by a few hundred rupees - Penalty.

The poor keep money in banks for safety. Not to be quietly fined for being poor.

Financial inclusion should protect small savings, not punish small balances.

In Parliament today I proposed ending minimum balance penalties so the banking system stops charging people for their poverty.

Congress budgets were non-productive like the birth of a girl.

BJP budget is productive like the birth of a boy.

This is the reason why Congress party is in the opposition.

BJP has many Epsteins. The most influential ones close to the supreme leader are freely roaming the world as ministers or holding important posts.

[Raghav Chadha @raghav_chadha]

If voters can HIRE a neta, they should be able to FIRE the neta too.

If Indian voters have the Right to Elect, they should have the ‘RIGHT TO RECALL’ too.

Right to Recall is a mechanism that empowers voters to de-elect an elected representative, before their term ends, if they fail to discharge their duties. If we can impeach the President, the Vice President and judges, and move a no confidence motion against an elected government mid term, then why should voters be forced to tolerate a non performing MP or MLA for five full years.

Five years is too long. There is no profession where you underperform for five years with zero consequences.

More than 24 democracies in the world such as the United States, Switzerland etc. provide arecall or voter initiated removal mechanisms in some form. If Indian voters have the right to elect, they should have the right to recall too.

However, there should be safeguards to prevent misuse:

Threshold - At least 35 to 40 percent voters should back a recall trigger through a verified petition before any recall vote is held
Cooling period - A minimum 18 month lock in after election so the representative has time to deliver and cannot be targeted immediately after winning
Clear grounds- Recall only for proven misconduct, fraud, corruption or serious neglect of duty, not everyday political disagreements
Final test- Recall succeeds only if more than 50 percent voters support removal in the recall vote

This is citizen empowerment. It will push parties to field performers, reduce corruption, and bring democracy back to accountability.

Voters have the right to vote someone into office and they should have the right to vote them out of office too.

[The Indian Express @IndianExpress]

The calm in Uttarakhand's Pauri Garhwal broke when Bajrang Dal members heckled and threatened a 70-year-old Muslim shopkeeper over using ‘Baba’ in his shop's name.

A man stood up to the mob, and when asked his name, replied: "Mera naam Mohammad Deepak" (My name is Mohammad Deepak). While his act won many hearts online, he is facing brickbats back home. Indian Express spoke to the man about what made him stand up to the crowd, and does he regret anything.

Raised the issue of Spam Call and telemarketing calls despite being registered in the national DND introduced by the Telecom Ministry. How our personal data is monetised and used to harass with sales spam calls. Have urged through the Hon. Chair for firms found flouting norms to be penalised/blacklisted

Great interview by @ajitanjum.
Why did Police file an FIR against 'unnamed people' when it's very clear who the BajrangDal goons were. I could recognise a few.
1. Aman Swedia
2. Siddhant Badoni
3. Bhupi Choudhary
4. Sachin Choudhary
5. Naresh Uniyal
