Children locked out of qualifying exams. This pic should be framed alongside others to show the cruelty meted out to 🇮🇳s children. The entire system is rotten.

[Andy Mukherjee @andymukherjee70]

India’s education system is mired in exam-related chaos, causing deep anxiety among students and parents. In the middle of all this comes a hasty switch to a weird 3-language policy. Parents have gone to court. A link to my latest column below 👇 https://t.co/CSSy9Ojl6G

Breaking down US statement, that marks an escalation over the issue of 3 Indian seafarers being killed by US Navy, here's what it says:

1. Vessels must comply with US orders (Why?)
2. US forces are seeking to uphold peace and security( By shooting unarmed ships?)
3. In the Strait (But US ships are in the Gulf of Oman)
4. Violations of US Blockade ( which have been many)
5. Illicit transport of Iranian oil (Not according to international law, and US sanctions are only punitive economically)
6. Won't be tolerated (Regardless of loss of lives, or contravening international law)

Awaiting MEA response.

This must have been before the actual call, before a mirror . Cause the official statement is basically showing us the finger.

[Dr. S. Jaishankar @DrSJaishankar]

Spoke to US Secretary of State Marco Rubio this evening. I reiterated India’s strong protest at the attacks by the US Navy in the Gulf that killed three Indian mariners. Such lethal actions against commercial shipping are not justified.

I don’t believe there can be any redemption for her

[Vir Das @thevirdas]

Watched this woman destroy an innocent girls life while reading her WhatsApp Messages on the news. For ratings. Had her call me anti-national on the news for speaking about women’s safety. For ratings. Now she’s ‘concerned’ about women. For ratings. Give me a break. That’s my take.

[Himadri @onlineGhosh]

Full agree with @dhanyarajendran.

[Rahul Biddappa @rahulbiddappa]

@RuhiTewari That says nothing about conviction, integrity or ideology- all integral to leadership, so if this is the young breed, heaven help this country.

[Rahul Biddappa @rahulbiddappa]

If you have not watched this interview, please do. Incredible youngster- Intelligent, dogged, sincere and humble.

[newslaundry @newslaundry]

“Anti-national”. “Pakistani”. When you take on a powerful institution at 18, the trolls come for you. But @sidhant_sarthak has a system and it’s more clever than you would expect.

Must watch . @PoojaPrasanna4 @thenewsminute

[TheNewsMinute @thenewsminute]

How did the Adani Group become one of India's most powerful infrastructure conglomerates? Was it business success alone, or did policy decisions play a role? @PoojaPrasanna4 explains in #LetMeExplain

The story of the mattress shop that turned its stock into a safety net for Delhi fire victims: Riyazuddin & family are from Amroha. They’ve made Delhi their home for nearly half a century. Now, they may have made it a home worth returning to for several others ♥️

@dmuthuk Sure, but not from a govt/ ruling party in which the leader instructs an entire nation in the midst of a global pandemic to come out of their homes at an appointed hour and raise a cacophony to shoo the virus away. What logic or facts do you think this nation is interested in?

#RIP

[Narges Mohammadi | نرگس محمدی @nargesfnd]

We are deeply saddened by the passing of Marjane Satrapi, the acclaimed Franco-Iranian artist, filmmaker, and author of the internationally celebrated graphic novel Persepolis who died at the age of 56.

Marjane Satrapi was a fearless voice for feminism, human rights, and freedom. Through her work and public engagement, she consistently advocated for women’s rights, standing in solidarity with the people of Iran and amplifying the message of the Woman, Life, Freedom movement on the global stage.

According to a statement from her family, Marjane Satrapi “died of sadness” a little more than a year after the passing of her husband, Mattias Ripa, a producer, actor, and screenwriter, who died on April 8, 2025.

Marjane Satrapi leaves behind a powerful cultural, artistic, and moral legacy. Her courage will continue to resonate far beyond her lifetime.

Umar Khalid returned to Tihar today after 3 days of interim bail for his mother's surgery. Look at the message on his t-shirt! His ideas can never be caged.

@sugataraju Hopefully there will be an update to the book in a few years :)

[Rahul Biddappa @rahulbiddappa]

@AmitGuha2020 That’s good , cause the museum in the city is a sore disappointment.

[Abhinandan Sekhri @AbhinandanSekhr]

Of all the ridiculous & daft things Modi govt makes people do, this has to be up there among the top. Making people listen/watch and then post about it makes him look like an insecure loser & makes other leaders look like incompetent children. How low we've sunk.

[Rahul Biddappa @rahulbiddappa]

@PoojaPrasanna4 It’s been happening increasingly.

[Rahul Biddappa @rahulbiddappa]

Exactly, finally speaking up in a democracy!

[Dhanya Rajendran @dhanyarajendran]

Actually am quite pleasantly surprised that all these teenagers and their parents were okay to appear in this video. That’s the kind of grit a lot of people haven’t shown. The simple act of speaking up

[Pooja Prasanna @PoojaPrasanna4]

At today’s press conference, Siddaramaiah said something striking: “If not for the Constitution, I would have remained a farm labourer. I would not have been educated, become an MLA, a minister or a chief minister.”

In all the years and interviews I’ve done with him, this one from 2019 was different. I had followed him through the day, from political meetings to a working lunch at his Mysuru home, and for the first time on an English channel, he opened up about his upbringing, the shaping of his ideology, the compromises and balances politics demands, and his views on God, religion and family.

@amritareach Will this be on Youtube? Or will the text of the lecture be available anywhere? Thanks!
