It is convenient to become an Aditya Dhar, Sudipto Sen or Vivek Agnihotri in a land where sympathy is a crime, empathy an offence and fraternity condemned.
It is equally difficult to remain a Diljit Dosanjh or Imtiyaz Ali and sing a ballad of peace. 🎶
Kudos to both. ✨ 🩵

Mayor Mamdani criticizes Trump admin for handling of the World Cup, travel restrictions & visa denials for teams & others.
“The World Cup is supposed to be a celebration of the world as a whole… this is anathema to what this tournament is supposed to be about.”
BREAKING: New York City's Mayor Just Called For ICE To Be Abolished Ahead of Trumps Visit To Todays NBA Game At MSG.
He says ICE raids are "cruel and inhumane" and do nothing to improve public safety.
The question is no longer whether ICE needs reform.
It's whether one of the federal government's primary immigration enforcement agencies should continue to exist.
That's a very different debate.

टीटीई जितेंद्र मिश्रा ट्रेन में टिकट चेक कर रहे थे।
एक युवक बिना टिकट मिला। आँखों में आँसू थे। पूछने पर बोला
साहब, होटल वाले ने मारपीट करके नौकरी से निकाल दिया। गाँव जाना है, लेकिन टिकट के पैसे नहीं हैं। माफ कर दीजिए।
नियम तो कहता है कि जुर्माना लगाया जाए।
लेकिन मिश्रा जी ने इंसानियत दिखाई।
उन्होंने पहले उसे खाना खिलाया, फिर अपनी जेब से टिकट बनवाया और जाते-जाते ₹200 भी दे दिए।
वर्दी तो बहुत लोग पहनते हैं, लेकिन वर्दी में इंसानियत निभाने वाले बहुत कम होते हैं। 🙏
सलाम है टीटीई जितेंद्र मिश्रा जी को। ❤️
क्या आज के समय में ऐसे लोग ही असली हीरो नहीं हैं? ❤️
NYC investing $122 million in schools and hiring 1,000 teachers is somehow a problem?
That's 1,000 people getting jobs.
That's 1000 students getting educated.
Money invested in the future instead of more bombs & endless war.
Sounds like pretty good use of taxpayer money to me.
“Why argue with an Arsenal fan when you can just wait?” We waited. We won. We are champions of England - and we are just one game away from being crowned champions of Europe. Read my piece on what Arsenal means to me here: https://t.co/J6cg388mRH
Three months ago today, a war began that no one voted for — and the cost has been paid by people who had no say in it.
Thousands of civilians have lost their lives. Thirteen U.S. servicemembers will never come home to their families.
Americans across this country and our city have watched prices rise at the pump and the grocery store, their budgets strained by a conflict launched without a single vote of Congress.
Every life lost abroad and every dollar squeezed from a working family here is part of the same reckless bill, handed to the people who could least afford it by those who will never pay it themselves.
I opposed this war from the first day. I oppose it still. It must end.
