@vfsglobalcare Hello, can I collect my passport from the VFS global London office in the morning by paying an extra fee? Or is pick up only in the evening on working days? Please let me know.

[k @parakeert]

@vfsglobalcare hello, please reply to my DM.

[k @parakeert]

@vfsglobalcare please reply to my DM asap. I applied for an Irish visa at VFS Global London, and was not charged for the Irish visa fee. I need clarification regarding this.

Observing that a Court cannot compel a woman, much less a minor, to continue an unwanted pregnancy, the Supreme Court on Friday permitted the medical termination of a 30-week pregnancy of a girl who had become pregnant while she was a minor.

It feels surreal, tbh. You actually forget that this is the actual normal in functioning democracies. The press asking probing, combative questions, and the leaders being on the defensive. It's frankly insane that they torched this whole practice and just bought out the media.

IMPORTANT: Denied entry to #India for speaking on democratic & constitutional values. I was invited to a conference as esteemed delegate by Govt of #Karnataka (Congress-ruled state) but Centre refused me entry. All my documents were valid & current (UK passport & OCI). THREAD 1/n

the inability to think or argue coherently is a hindutva trait.
aurangzeb was a tyrant, but not atypical of his times. modi's autocracy is atypical for a constitutional democracy.
in particular, even under aurangzeb non-muslims had greater share in power than muslims under modi.

Upper caste outrage is truly mind numbing. Y’all get offended at someone saying they value an education and an exercise of equal rights above all else?

[k @parakeert]

Sanghi insults in the quotes being “he looks like someone who fails” “he’s going to be in JNU on a govt scholarship” when this kid values education and will probably make more of it than you venomous lot ever will. More power to him, I hope he thrives.

[k @parakeert]

You sanitise and whitewash the violent origins and trajectory of this entire spectacle, and then expect those who were most horrifically affected by it to turn around and either thank you for your generosity, or stay quiet and live in this country as second class citizens.

[k @parakeert]

Support for and ignorance of the violence and massacres that lay the ground for this mandir makes it quite foolish to say it can be considered in isolation, when everything to do with it has been a part of electioneering. It didn’t appear out of thin air.

[FullMetalChomsky🇮🇳🍉 @Chishiki_No_Umi]

@TathagatEcon I'd say the mandir in isolation should not be something we should oppose. It's rather pointless to oppose something so many want so badly. And frankly the Muslim institutions have also accepted the deal they got, money and a new masjid.
