I love using the phrase "vice versa". Fuck you. I'm not saying all that again in reverse.
Big shoutout to etcetera too. What am I, the listing things fairy? Use your imagination.
@JM_Scindia@BittuT68697 A sitting Union Minister is celebrating the public not reaching out to Elected Representatives for help.
What are we paying taxes for, if we have to do everything by ourselves?
A federal judge ruled that the Trump administration broke the law when it ordered a 50 percent cut in FEMA employees.

Rao Inderjit Singh, BJP MP from Gurugram: water logging happens in the city because of construction done over drains. This happened when Cong was in govt.
But who was Gurugram MP when Cong was in Govt?
Rao Inderjit Singh (he was in Cong at that time)
@TheEconomist Sounds ridiculous, but think of it like this, it pays twice the per capita income in India. For a country as poor as India, this can often be life changing for the folks.
@dhume@swarajk_ Percentage calculation vs absolute values. You should have compared per capita income growth percentage.
It's terrible and long way to go, but it has done "good" since liberalization. Just not good enough for the chest thumping that most Indians (BJP) gloats about.
There are so many skeletons in the BJP's closet that the doors can no longer hold them shut. Every now and then, another skull comes tumbling out.
Of the ₹2,192 crore disbursed as soft loans to 22 companies, 15 beneficiaries are reportedly linked to the panel.
If an independent newspaper could uncover this, the government certainly could have.
This wasn't a failure to detect. It was a conscious decision to look the other way. Thanks for flagging this issue @pravchak.
Two days ago, a widowed mother packed up her life and left her rented home in Noida with her 15-year-old daughter.
She said they had little choice: police and strangers were turning up at their doorstep after her daughter — a Class 10 student — became embroiled in a controversy over alleged remarks against Prime Minister Narendra Modi.
The mother said her daughter had apologised and that the Prime Minister had forgiven her, but the family was still facing constant harassment.
“I am raising my daughter alone. My husband died in an accident in 2019, and my younger son lives with my in-laws. How can we continue living there when people and the police keep coming to our house?” she told The Indian Express, appealing to the authorities and the public to stop hounding her family.
The girl allegedly made derogatory remarks against the PM during a protest by the Cockroach Janta Party (CJP) at Delhi’s Jantar Mantar. The Noida Police registered a case against her.

One of the world's largest illegal gambling networks sends millions in crypto through a tiny office in Dubai. The network is fronted by two flashy Iranian influencers with high-level government connections, and it’s fueling a $4 billion sanctions dodge https://t.co/zst6IBLrwn
Almost everyone who entered Ceuta yesterday has now returned to Morocco.
It is not possible to travel from Ceuta or Melilla to mainland Spain without presenting identification at a police checkpoint. The integrity of the Schengen area is fully guaranteed.
Inspite of repeated assurances by @JPNadda and @DrJitendraSingh that the peaceful protestors will not be harassed, @DelhiPolice is continuously detaining our supporters.
This is completely unacceptable and won’t be tolerated.
