IMPORTANT: In its first month, VB-GRAM G sees almost 50% sharp drop year on year in rural jobs. Kisan is the pillar for the welfare state: while one month is too early to pass judgment especially as many states are yet to adjust to new system, these initial numbers should raise serious concerns over why architecture of MGNREGA was altered in the first place.

You care for what you want fixed on priority and they will care for what they feel is important- why you expect them to be everywhere. Whataboutery is another art form for Godi Media. It was convenient that JPSC protest over a system which has been messed up since state formation came at the same time that NEET mess at a national level humbled the BJP. Now Godis are out to rebuild the image of their Supreme Leader
@Zakka_Jacob Karunanidhi was larger than life from 70s and 80s itself. You are a journalist and you must know that by 2003 he was already past his prime as politician.
@nirbhaavuka To win Gandhinagar, he has to be with the Congress. It has always elected Cong candidate since last 30 years; only once or twice before that Cong candidate lost- once famously to AIADMK. But then at that time there was a split in Congress caused by Bangarappa.
The widespread protests across Pakistan-held Kashmir have been met with police shootings, mobile and internet shutdowns, and sweeping state repression, including the arbitrary detention of protesters under anti-terror laws. Yet despite security forces reportedly killing up to 40 protesters since last week, the crisis in that heavily militarized territory has received scant attention in the Western media.
By contrast, @nytimes published 16 news reports in just one week (July 20–27) on the youth-led protests in New Delhi that forced India's education minister to resign. But on the mass protests in Pakistan-administered Kashmir, which have triggered a severe security crackdown and heavy casualties, it has published just one news report so far.
Shocking reports of lethal violence by Pakistani security forces against protestors in Jammu and Kashmir, in the lead-up to regional elections.
This brutal suppression must end. The communications blackout must be lifted. The human rights of the people of Kashmir must be upheld.
Don’t just keep quiet petition @reliancejio Mukesh Ambani to sack the leadership of this criminal channel. Enough is enough Modi media is dangerous & poisonous to our democracy
Has this country gone absolutely nuts to not condemn what is happening to Ruchika?
Everyday this hellsite has maa behen gaalis, plus in this part of South India "I hope your kids die" (Nee pillalu chachpovaali) from red flags here just because their feelings are hurtttttu; nobody takes action;
Politicians say "i'll build your samadhi" to another politician; some of the most crass speeches have come from political candidates and one girl speaking angered the OG Ram temple thieves?
700 tons of explosives.
Israel detonated 700 tons of explosives beneath Beaufort Castle in South Lebanon, in the middle of the night.
A 900-year-old Crusader castle that UNESCO just listed as endangered heritage.

I am deeply anguished to know that the legendary colour of the Indian hockey team’s jersey has been changed to saffron. The iconic shade of blue of the Indian hockey team is not just a colour. It is an emotion associated with the nation’s sporting heritage.
For decades, this colour united us in hope, in victory, in defeat and in the pursuit of sporting excellence. We have cried, laughed, celebrated and stood proudly with our men and women in blue. Wearing the blue jersey our teams have won Olympic medals with the national anthem playing on the world stage. #Blue is derived from the blue chakra in our national flag. It is a symbol of our national pride and identity. The colour blue belongs to every Indian.
When the national hockey teams were struggling for sponsors, #Odisha created history by being the first and only state to support our national teams and our beloved game. Every Odia across the globe was proud of the state’s gift to national hockey. After 41 long years, our men’s team won an Olympic medal. Just because the government changed in Odisha, it should not change our national team colours. This is petty politics of the worst kind.
Our blue jersey is to us what the iconic stripes are to Argentina and the yellow jersey is to Brazil. It is etched in our collective memory. Any change in this colour, is a crass attempt to erase our priceless sporting legacy. National symbols are meant to unite us not divide.
I am given to understand that this step was taken under pressure from the BJP Government in Odisha. Those in authority may deny it, but the fact is that for the last two years, everybody in Odisha has seen the obsession of this government with changing colours of buildings, buses and even bridges. It is the only work that is happening in Odisha today. But now the same government has changed the colours of our national team. I strongly condemn this attempt by BJP Odisha to politicise a national game like hockey. It has deeply hurt the sentiments of lakhs of sports lovers across the country and the pride with which Odisha has supported the national hockey.

Entire TV shows in the US are dedicated to mocking him- improve your knowledge level. There were huge No-Kings rallies held across the US last year against Trump, he is ridiculed for his body, hair color, way of speaking, dancing- they were even go after his wife and sons as part of the comedy
