Earlier the job of Indian embassies was to improve diplomatic ties. Now it is to gather crowds for modi’s visits. I got an invite from the embassy when he was in Doha.

Must be a hot summer in India.

"A 17-year-old kid who is not even eligible to get voting ink on his finger, has pointed a finger at the whole education system." Classy satire from Shekhar Suman! Especially this section, where he lauds the GenZ boys who exposed CBSE.

The Manmohan Singh govt, even on its last legs, had the gumption to remove security barriers at the American embassy in Delhi, and force the US ambassador to resign over the Devyani Khobragade saga (whatever one might feel about that).

PM Modi finished his short visit to India and returned abroad.

The @nytimes had published a poorly substantiated red-scare type report, with exaggerated allegations about @newsclickin. That report had been widely cited by the regime in India to demonise everyone who worked for NewsClick. Will NYT issue a correction and publish a new piece?

Have some shame @nytimes . Your half baked report destroyed lives. People dependent on Newsclick for their bread and butter are still without jobs . Your frivolous report made "Newsclick" a stigma on their CVs and no one would hire them .

Ahilyanagar,Maharastra Swati Bhosale wore a burqa & dumped meat on Brahman Street on Bakreid to create communal tensions & implicate Muslims Police checked CCTV & arrested her The case highlights how far Sanghi scums can go to incite riots & blame innocent Muslims for it

Even USA couldn’t defend killing of 3 Indian nationals like Bagree did for USA. For him it was a collateral damage & they themselves were responsible for it!! This is BJP IT Cell. These are the real anti-nationals. Only BJP & Modi’s image matters to them.

To refresh memory. The slang “Imma bounce,” which roughly means “I am going to leave” featured in one of Rhea Chakraborty's chats. Times Now at the time said on their show that she was talking about a bounced cheque. Sorry Vir, you are a fine comic but Times Now has better jokes

Interesting twist. Meenakshi Natarajan's Rajya Sabha nomination was rejected for not disclosing a private complaint. Now, the Hyderabad court has returned that very petition, saying it lacks jurisdiction. The complaint had not even been taken cognisance of, and Meenakshi was a respondent, not an accused. With the Supreme Court having already dismissed her plea, it will be interesting to see what turn the controversy takes next. @aajtak intdy.in/e6bdmr

RT @SushantSin: Nothing to do with the state of Indian economy?

This is FINAL. Sita was only SIX on her wedding with Rama (Note: Valmiki Ramayana is a story book, and not a history book)

Meet Aryan Verma, 21 yrs, R/o Shahjahanpur, UP > Father: Inspector in Horticulture Department > Mother: Govt school teacher > Failed to clear NEET twice > Wanted to become an army officer So, he dressed up as a brigadier with complete props: > SUV fitted with military insignia > air pistol > fake army ID > two bouncers to pose as NSG commandos > a uniformed driver. Ex-servicemen of the area found him suspicious because his age did not match the high rank. They invited him to a program at the martyr’s museum in the cantonment area and apprehended him there.

RT @SushantSin: Good edit from @DeccanHerald on the Newclick issue. @prabirpur

Good morning! Just got to know this! 1/2 A whole government Ministry is unleashed on me - because I speak against unscientific practices and primitive traditional healthcare that can harm, I communicate scientific information for public and patients alike. This was an official memo released during the Ministry of Ayush meeting on 12-6-2026 fully dedicated towards shutting down my social media presence. Imagine - the people in this meeting were eating biscuits and drinking tea, paid for by the citizens of the country - to decide how to gag and shutdown a citizen doctor who educates people on medical science via social media. Yesterday, my Instagram account was briefly hacked, but I got back control and removed unauthorized access within an hour. The Article 51A(h) of the Indian Constitution outlines the fundamental duty of every citizen to develop a "scientific temper, humanism, and the spirit of inquiry and reform". Added during the 42nd Amendment in 1976, this non-justiciable directive promotes logical reasoning, critical thinking, and rationality. The Ayush system is not scientific, it kills scientific temper, it does not promote the spirit of inquiry, it lacks logical reasoning, has the deadest version of critical thinking and none of its products and practices are rational. The only thing that needs to be shut down, is an unscientific body like Ayush that goes against the Indian Constitution and wastes public tax money... and not me. Also, please look closely at the person at the end, who is copied to, by the Ministry. His name is Vaidya K P Manikandan and he is the owner and founder of CNS Ayurveda Hospital, where children are treated for chronic conditions such as severe mental health disorders, autism and epilepsy (please see an official release from the hospital in the next post). One such victim of his was saved by my team (we reported it: pubmed.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/3629…) and he put a criminal defamation case against me and the authors (for publishing a scientific peer reviewed paper!) which was later "stayed" by the High Court of Kerala. This has nothing to do with service to patients, but everything to do with protecting the business of alternative medicine (especially Ayurveda). These low life complaintants should be ashamed.

A classic.

Imma Bounce special. Vid 1 - Congress is chirkut party. Vid 2 - Bloody Rahul. What kind of journalist uses such language on national TV? Journalism ke naam pe dhabba ho aap.@thevirdas

Fire is the biggest cleanser! Ask corporate India- fires are always in the small print somewhere- these days you can even ensure they don’t make news unless lives are lost!!

On 3 October 2023, the Delhi Police’s Special Cell conducted a series of raids targeting the office of the news website NewsClick and several journalists and people associated with the organisation. Later that day, the website’s founder Prabir Purkayastha and its human resources department head Amit Chakravarty were arrested under the anti-terror law UAPA. NewsClick has been accused of receiving funds to spread pro-China propaganda, a charge the organisation has repeatedly denied. NewsClick’s coverage has consistently reported on issues that concern the general public, ranging from labour issues, to the farmers’ protest and the anti-Muslim riots in Delhi. In the 27th episode of The Caravan Baatcheet, host Vishnu Sharma (@hellovishnu) talked to Hartosh Singh Bal (@HartoshSinghBal), the executive editor of The Caravan. Highlighting the distinction between journalism and propaganda, Bal says that journalism and democracy go hand in hand, and the crackdown on the last remaining bastions of independent media does not augur well for the country’s democratic future. What message does the government want to send to journalists and the media on these critical issues? Find out in this in-depth interview. Watch here: youtu.be/nDdDVLhpB_c
