⚠⚠ Passed after an hour-long "discussion" in Lok Sabha, it is slated for passage in Rajya Sabha today. The Telecom Bill, 2023 is a privacy-infringing relic of the colonial past.

It was August 10, 2017 during the farewell to Shri. Hamid Ansari, who was retiring as Vice President and Chairman of the Rajya Sabha after a long ten year tenure. It was then most shockingly that the Prime Minister mocked Mr. Ansari, one of India's most distinguished diplomats, reducing his identity to his religion and in effect alleging that his entire professional and political achievements were because of his religious identity. The PM pretty much sang the same song in the evening farewell function in Parliament Library auditorium as well.

Such a petty PM and his drum-beaters talking of insults being heaped at Constitutional authorities are hypocrites and opportunists of the worst kind.

This is nothing but an absolutely pathetic attempt to divert attention from the undemocratic suspension of 144 MPs from Parliament and the shocking security breach in Lok Sabha on December 13th.

- BJP would use the Jaat card when it's about the vice president.

- BJP would use the Dalit card when it's about the president.

- BJP would use the OBC card when it's about Modi Ji.

But the same BJP opposes the caste census, saying it divides people.

situation in Parliament is so sad right now that BJP MPs have to criticize their government's bill saying, "if opposition would have been here then they would raise these points. They would say such and such provisions are bad things in this bill".

And then they are giving reasons why those aren't bad things.

Are we one step closer to a surveillance state? The Telecom Bill, 2023 grants the government sweeping powers over OTT applications, encryption, surveillance, & internet shutdowns. Discover it's dangerous implications in my latest video at Amaltas Talks. https://t.co/V3toNARYmw

🚨🚨
The Telecom Bill 2023, has been passed in Lok Sabha, despite suspension of approx 100 opposition MPs in the LS. 👇

A repackaged version of the colonial past, the Bill tends to retain draconian surveillance & internet suspension powers. 1/n 👇👇

Government is bringing in two laws which would let it have COMPLETE CONTROL over all forms of communication.

Broadcast Bill:
- Allows the government to control & punish everyone who is communicating on the internet (termed "broadcasters").
- It is bringing literally everyone under their regulatory control, the govt will be able to take selective action on people with independent youtube channels or even twitter journalists who post videos here.
- it gives powers to 'authorized officers' to raid and seize equipment from broadcast networks or broadcasting services as well.

Telecommunication Bill:
- allows centre to take control of any telecommunication services or network
- allows centre to direct any message from any person can be intercepted or detained.
- allows centre to force any person to disclose these messages in intelligible format to the concerned officer

Modi govt is clearly on an overdrive to control all sorts of information before the 2024 elections.

The #LokSabha passed the #TelecomBill2023 today.

The bill will replace the Indian Telegraph Act (1885), the Indian Wireless Telegraphy Act (1933), and the 1950 Telegraph Wires (Unlawful Possession) Act. It will also amend the TRAI Act (1997) without diluting the regulator’s powers.

Ask yourself:

What do #Israelis want to hide?
What do they not want you to know?

Why are #Zionists silencing the reporters?
Why is #Israel geo-locating, targeting and murdering #journalists?

And why isn’t Western media speaking up in solidarity?
Because they aren’t #white?!
