The recurring incidents of passengers from non-Hindi speaking states facing harassment by #CISF personnel for not knowing Hindi and being forced to accept the misguided notion that Hindi is the national language of India are deeply concerning. As the passenger Sharmilaa rightly pointed out, this is not just an issue concerning individuals but reflects a systemic insensitivity. It is imperative that the @CISFHQrs takes immediate steps to sensitise its personnel on how to treat passengers and educates them about the rich cultural and linguistic diversity of our Union. Discrimination has no place in our #INDIA; let's ensure equal respect for all languages.

Why should meat shops be shut down by the BJP ruled municipal corpn in Delhi during Navratras? Stop policing food habits.. Don’t want to eat meat, pl don’t but stop imposing your diktats on others. By the way, majority Indians, including Hindus, are non veg by CHOICE!
Please learn from the @BJP4India how to leave no stone unturned when it comes to politicising issues that are of national importance!
Supplying more to BJP-ruled states purely reflects the pettiness & inhumanity of the @narendramodi Govt.!!

আমরাও বাইরে থাকি। কিন্তু আপনার মত লোকেরা বাংলার কলঙ্ক । আপনারা নিজেদের সংকীর্ণ রাজনৈতিক স্বার্থ চরিতার্থ করতে বাংলাকে প্রতি নিয়ত অপমানিত, হেয় ও দুর্বল করছেন ।
@Javedakhtarjadu You remember Sonu Nigam? How muslims were behind him on the same point. I personally oppose loud speaker in any religious places. Any sound system must be played only inside the premises with reasonable noise level. Performing religious duty doesn't give right to disturb others.
Mos finance Anurag Thakur rabble rousing speech raises a few troubling qs: Can a divisive politics co exist with growth driven economics? And yes, who really is the ‘tukde tukde’ gang? My column this week on ‘goli Maro’ politics! Do read/share! @htTweets https://t.co/VLhSwSJfav
News Today: 9 pm: I report from ground zero Jamia: what is the mood among the students after the gunman incident? Will the 'goli maaro' politics end? Should minister Thakur be sacked? Coronavirus updates: @IndiaToday news without the noise.
Left: 300 houses demolished for encroachment. The case went on for years, crying, drama for months, 25 lakh compensation and whatnot.
Right: 300 houses demolished based on a Tweet. No channel debates, no crying, no human story, no drama, nothing.

"এখনও, এখনও যদি ঘরে বসে নিজেকে বাঁচাই
যদি বাধা নাই দিই, তত্ত্ব করি, কী হল কার দোষে
যদি না আটকাই, আজও না-যদি ঝঁপিয়ে পড়তে পারি
আমার সমস্ত শিল্প আজ থেকে গণহত্যাকারী!"

আমার বাড়ির সামনের মোড়ে, ছোট্ট কুঁড়ে ঘরে এক বৃদ্ধা ভদ্রমহিলা থাকেন। সারাদিন কাঁপতে কাঁপতে ভিক্ষা করে, রাত্তিরে ওখানে ঘুমোন।
আজকাল ওনাকে দেখলে খারাপ লাগে। CAB বা NRC নিয়ে বিন্দুমাত্র ধারণা তাঁর নেই। বোঝেনও না।
এরা নিঃস্ব।
এরাই সাহসী!
সরকার এদের থেকে কি কাড়বে?
কেড়ে দেখাক!
