"If a citizen slaps a politician, they are jailed for months. If a politician slaps a citizen for asking a question, they walk free. This is two laws in India."
— Ravish Kumar Senior Journalist
Pro BJP propaganda News agency ANI didn't bother to post the video of Delhi Minister Parvesh Verma slapping the youth. But @smitaprakash was quick to post the clarification video of the minister.
In a tragic twist, Maharashtra is rapidly expanding construction of water-guzzling huge Data Centres even as 75% of the state is now officially declared drought-struck.
Strange times really.

Shameful behaviour by Pravesh Verma
Parvesh Verma slaps cameraman
मंत्री @p_sahibsingh के सामने विधायक @JarnailSinghAAP ने रोड की असलियत दिखा दी ।
मंत्री ने बौखला कर एक कैमरा वाले को ही थप्पड़ मार दिया । पुलिस सुरक्षा में बच्चे पर हाथ उठाकर तुमने अपना घटियापन दिखा दिया ।
📍शिवनेरी रोड, गोरेगाव पूर्व — Western Express Highway समोर.
या मार्गाने जाणाऱ्या मुली, महिला आणि सामान्य नागरिकांनी सुरक्षितपणे चालायचं तरी कसं?
प्रशासन याची दखल घेणार का? @MumbaiPolice@DGPMaharashtra@CPMumbaiPolice
The beams at the Chhatrapati Shivaji Maharaj Terminus (Victoria Terminus) still carry inscriptions “FRODINGHAM IRON & STEEL CO LTD ENGLAND” and “CARGO-FLEET-ENGLAND.”
This steel was produced between 1904 and 1912. The firm’s ironmaking history dates back to the 1860s.
It might be grubby and a little rusted today, but look closely and you’re looking at steel that has witnessed more than a century of Mumbai’s history.
A remarkable testament to the engineering of another era.

Sometimes, I wonder if it needs more than common sense to see a crisis coming.
Look at a typical case of Maharashtra.
It was always a water scarce state.
Yet, it has been made into India's largest ethanol-producing state, with roughly 315 crore liters annual capacity.
Not only that, Maharashtra hosts almost half (45%+) of the entire country's upcoming data centers by capacity.
And now, 75% of Maharashtra is declared to be under severe drought.
And then we call it as a 'natural' disaster.
So while villages wait for tankers, policymakers are encouraging more sugarcane, more ethanol, and more data centres.
A state facing drought should treat water as capital, not as an unlimited free resource.
At the end of the day, no one can drink ethanol or eat data to survive.
One will need water - for sure.
जे मुख्यमंत्री आपल्या सुरक्षेतील कर्मचाऱ्याची साधी काळजी घेत नाहीत, त्यांच्याकडून महाराष्ट्रातील १३ कोटी जनतेने काय अपेक्षा ठेवावी?
धाराशिवच्या दुष्काळी दौऱ्यात मुख्यमंत्री देवेंद्र फडणवीस यांच्या सुरक्षेतील एक कर्मचारी गाडीत चढताना पडल्याचे दृश्य समोर आले. त्यांच्या दौऱ्यात शेतकऱ्यांच्या व्यथा ऐकण्यासाठी थांबण्याऐवजी पुढे जाण्याचीच घाई दिसली; आणि आता आपल्या सुरक्षारक्षकासाठीही थांबले नाहीत.
दुष्काळग्रस्त शेतकऱ्यांच्या वेदना असोत किंवा स्वतःच्या सुरक्षेतील कर्मचाऱ्याची अडचण…मुख्यमंत्र्यांची हीच असंवेदनशीलता महाराष्ट्राने किती काळ सहन करायची?
मुख्यमंत्री साहेब,
दौरे आणि फोटोसेशनपेक्षा माणुसकी मोठी असते!
If you send all Biharis to Japan and all Japanese to Bihar, after a few months Bihar will look like Japan and Japan will become Bihar.
It’s not always the government. Sometimes, it’s the people who don’t want development.
