#NanpakalNerathuMayakkam the movie is stunning and so are #Thenieaswar’s mesmerising frames of the village . I attempted to draw some of them using watercolor markers @NNMMovie

He’s not deciding when you can speak or not. He’s telling you when you do - it’s often nonsensical, insincere and vile. You’re not so smart for someone on prime time. Or even generally. And for someone who’s peloing gyan daily, a bit rich to tell others not to pelo no?

I visited the southernmost tip of India.

I stood at Indira Point. I walked under trees that have stood for centuries. I dove into coral reefs among the most vibrant on earth.

And I sat with the people who live there. Tribal communities, whose land is being taken away by violating the Forest Rights Act. Settlers, many of them former soldiers, placed on these islands by the Indian government, who aren’t getting fair compensation.

The Modi government and BJP tells you Great Nicobar Project is about defence. It is not.

Expand INS Baaz - we will back the government fully. The Navy has been asking for expansion for five years - it has been ignored.

They tell you it is about a transhipment port. It is not. India is already building one in Kerala, which is on the mainland.

What it actually is: 1.5 crore trees felled. Coral reefs erased from official maps. Soldiers and tribals displaced - so one businessman can build hotels and casinos on India’s most irreplaceable ecological land.

Every young Indian I have spoken to understands this. You know that no amount of profit is worth destroying what can never be recovered.

I stand for ecologically balanced development. These islands can be the most extraordinary sustainable destination the world has ever seen. That is the India worth fighting for.

I don't think I have ever heard Rajesh khanna speaking English before.

What a great clip. And that accent. Totally charming. ❤

When the person in charge of the nation is talking about recipes for making aamrass this pathetic sanghini is faulting the poor students for reaching out to the LoP to be their voice in the House of the People. Don’t miss the not so subtle effort to delegitimise student anger with the phrase “Bangladesh style protest”. Shame!

[Anubhav Singh @lucifer_damned]

Been 12 years and Ram Guha still doesn’t understand that BJP isn’t winning because Rahul Gandhi is a 5th generation dynast. Nor is it because of Modi’s non existent oratorical skills or his supposed record of governance.

[Pracool @thehighmonk]

Dharmendra Pradhan won’t resign because accountability is contagious. If he goes, Hardeep Singh Puri is next. Then Ashwini Vaishnaw. Then Nirmala Sitharaman. Pull one domino and the entire chain of manufactured invincibility comes crashing down.

When you say “gift” , does it mean citizens can travel free of cost ?

Also, when you thank Modi for this gift, was the train built & deployed with his personal funds ?

Define “gift” for us please.

When he became @PMOIndia 12 years ago, @narendramodi asked for 10 years to transform the country. It seems clear now that his focus was mainly on the Indian republic's transformation into a Hindu-majority polity.

In the near future, as this economic crisis unfolds, it’s going to be important for us to ask questions of our leadership. When you do, your replies and your timeline will be flooded with hate and attacks. Don’t take it personally, it simply means the question was a really good one. The quality of the question is directly proportional to the number of anonymous replies.

The first one is a digitally altered page being wrongly presented as the front page of The Hindu on June 6, 1967. The second is the actual page released that day. This is what social media is capable of; it can even alter the front page of India's national English daily.

These two photos provide a gist of EXTERNAL AFFAIRS OF INDIA.

The son of India’s incumbent External Affairs Minister and former Foreign Secretary is the Executive Director of ORF America - the American arm of the Reliance controlled ORF.

‘Acche Din’ indeed for Reliance and Jaishankars❗️

Today, people of all political persuasions, class, race, gender and ability are uniting to show that Tommy Robinson’s (aka Yaxley-Lennon) hate filled rhetoric does not represent true British values. I’m proud to be standing up to racism on @AntiRacismDay with the Women’s Block

“I can speak, because I am not dependent on any party. I pay my taxes, I have no fear. I am raising this, not for me, but for those who walk behind me. I do not want anyone telling them, ‘Even Urvashi kept quiet, why are you making noise?’”

Standing at the New Delhi Railway Station—absolutely clean, with digital payment at every small shop.

What a transformation under PM Narendra Modi Ji (@narendramodi )

I remember the Congress era, when clean stations were rare. Today, good infrastructure & cleanliness have become normal.

That’s New India.
