@dgpup @dm_ghaziabad @ghaziabadpolice Highly provocative videos R surfacing from Khora, Ghaziabad, disturbing communal harmony. While local Hindus & Muslims want peace, outsiders R fueling tension. Request deployment of Peace Committees & strict action against troublemakers.

@ShashiTharoor @KirenRijiju With due respect to Rijiju, he has the habit of just talking without substance to impress Modi ji

Where is democracy in this country heading to? We wish the top court would listen, since the judiciary is the last hope.

The country that always looks up to the CBI as the only neutral investigating agency is now ashamed of this institution. The term 'Caged parrots' is the perfect way to describe this agency

The greatest rivalry advertisement of Star Sports before the India Pakistan match is not in good taste. It encourages negativity and animosity. Fans and cricket boards should campaign against it.

@NBirenSingh Really sad. I was SP Ukhrul from May 1990 to October 1992. We prevented Tangkhul-Kuki clashes many times, by timely action. Leading a dedicated team of police officers including John Shilshi, we always succeeded in curbing the flare up. Trust, Transparency and Integrity needed.

@bansalavani @MamataOfficial @RahulGandhi @priyankagandhi @Pawankhera @Jairam_Ramesh @derekobrienmp @ravish_journo @advsanjoy @ShashiTharoor Wonderfully summarised. By the way, when I heard her ask "Why no SIR in Assam"? my heart thumped, because no one was asking this.

WELL DONE RAHUL GANDHI.

Personally speaking, I don’t care much for public posturing, ceremonial position in a queue, sequence in hierarchy on stage, seat on the table etc. In politics, however, these optics are sliced and diced. But truth is m, it shows an insecure mind, a big ego and a thin skin. Indian politics is full of this trash.

But on the Republic day celebrations , making the Leader of Opposition ( a shadow prime minister) Rahul Gandhi sit rows behind the others, shows you that we have a coarse, petty people in power, cunning, insecure and cowardly, like those sly village moneylenders seen in the 1970’s Hindi movies who have no scruples, and are shady, untrustworthy characters.

Rahul Gandhi may have things he can do better, but the decency, grace and gentlemanliness he brings to India’s current political toxicity is like a breath of fresh air. He carried himself with distinction. No fuss. Nothing. He sat where he was allocated his seat, craning his neck for a better view.

When this government is defeated, the Congress must not make the current man who will be ex-PM sit on the third row. No tit for tat. Give him respect: give him a front row seat. That will be the ultimate humiliation.

I repeat, we need a new politics. And a new leadership.

What is Harshit doing in the Indian team? To boost the confidence of the opposition team by giving away tons of runs? Rediculous. Enough of Coach GG picking players on his whims and fancies and not on merit. Why is BCCI closing their eyes to this?

On resolving the controversy of appointing VCs of Universities in Kerala, the remarks of the SC "We hope they keep talking like this" says it all. The country is suffering a lot because of differences between Governors and Chief Ministers.
