To inculcate a culture of gender equality, Kerala's school text books will be revised and audited to sieve out words and phrases disparaging women. Steps will be taken to turn our schools and colleges into spaces that embrace the idea of gender equality and equal rights.

Tamil Nadu Finance Minister calls out godman Jaggi Vasudev. “Publicity hound”, “charlatan”, “commercial operator”, are some of his descriptions of the godman. HR& CE minister to investigate “what was going on in the Isha Yoga Centre at Coimbatore.” About time.

During UPA, accountability was never dodged, even when fault wasn't proven: mistakes were corrected, ministries reassigned, policies altered &above all public opinion respected. Can the present govt point to a single example of any of this in the face of such cataclysmic failure?

[Vaisakh Venugopal @tweetingmanu]

@soulonatraipse Not required, IMHO. That is just pretentious gatekeeping.

Hi @amitabhk87

“Democracy” literally means 1 vote for every citizen in electing the govt.

There’s no possible concept called “too much of democracy” since 1 person only gets 1 vote.

There’s, however, something called “too much stupidity” which you ingloriously displayed today.

US Media fact checks Donald Trump and shuts him up when he lies. Meanwhile India Media has removed all reports quoting Amitabh Kant, CEO, Niti Aayog saying Indian reforms are hampered by "too much democracy" because he denied saying it, even when there is Video of him saying it

You all knew what was coming when Yogi was elected.
This is a man who was always known 4 his hate mongering. He was never a posterboy of our religion, robes aside.

Now, as the blatant coverups finally prick your conscience, you speak out but it's already too late.

The Prime Time anchors who spent all their time talking about Hindu-muslim , mandir -masjid this is on you.

Know that there is consequence to your fear mongering, this is the real life consequence

What becomes ever clearer is that this regime has never had anything in its bag that could be mistaken for governance or plans for genuine progress.

As the water is receding faster it’s important that ALL relief workers go to a doctor at the earliest. You have been in touch with water that’s polluted and you have worked in areas with floating carcasses . Please don’t take this lightly. #KerelaFloodRelief
