Just a couple of facts. How long can a multiple term CM of Gujarat & 3 term PM of India Modi continue to pretend to be a “KAAMDAAR” particularly when the “Kaam” is so mediocre & patchy. 3 recent roll backs Agniveer, 2 Farm laws, land act, nutty demon & speaking against “revdi” while being the biggest distributor of freebies. State of employment, education, foreign relations China & the USA & off course the really poor social economic indices of Gujarat & India. The cronyism is endemic the culling of a free press. Modi has not yet met a democratic institution which he has not destroyed. Look at the EC. The misuse of the central agencies is legend

Congratulations to everyone who insisted we burst more crackers. You were absolutely right! We are now proudly at #2 among the world’s most polluted cities. Clearly, we should have burst a little more to clinch the top spot. What a missed opportunity! 👏😷

It’s very unfortunate that some “deemed poor” commentators - leading relatively very well off lives - are resorting to such banal dissection of an intimate video of a regular dinning table evening. After all Mrs. Indira Gandhi, who was the Prime Minister of India - Grand daughter of MotiLal Nehru, a leading advocate in British India & daughter of India’s first PM, Pt Nehru - is seen enjoying dinner with normal cutlery in a run of the mill household demeanour. Where is the vulgar display of privilege in this video ? What is so wrong in video ? @MediaHarshVT I come from a regular middle class household. My late father was a government employee, who having studied at BITs Pilani, encouraged such dinner table habits as seen in the video, amongst us since childhood - (that is the decade of 70s) Even my Late Grandfather - a farmer, was very adept at using fork, knife & spoon during dinner, as when he felt like. Porcelain plates with cutlery. Discussion on books, art, music, paintings, sculptures & political cum economic scenario in English was regular fare for a majority of service class - middle class Indians. So, I can’t see the reason for the outpouring of such huge angst. And by the way, those who did belong to the service class, they were not British boot lickers, as you present them to be. It is from amongst this service class, a majority of freedom fighters emerged. Kindly get your history lessons corrected.
सोनिया गांधी की पुस्तक को चर्चा में लाने के लिए अब किसी तरह के प्रचार की आवश्यकता ना के बराबर है, लेकिन सोनिया जी पुस्तक के प्रचार के लिए एक्स और इंस्टा पर आ गईं। अच्छा है, लेकिन जिसने भी इस वीडियो को साझा किया, उसे देश के मानस की समझ नहीं है। अस्सी के दशक में किसी राजपरिवार या बड़े उद्योगपति के घर की डाइनिंग टेबल ही ऐसी होती थी। काँटा-छुरी-चम्मच से आम खाना और वन लाख को हिन्दी में बोलने पर इंदिरा जी का वन हंड्रेड थाउजेंड अंग्रेजी में बताने पर ख़ुश होना। देश के लोकतंत्र को अपनी जागीर समझने जैसा भाव भी वहाँ स्पष्ट दिख रहा है। दुर्भाग्यपूर्ण यह है कि, देश के पत्रकारों, बुद्धिजीवियों का बड़ा वर्ग गांधी परिवार की ग़ुलामी को गर्व के साथ बताता रहा और गांधी परिवार को ब्रिटिश राजपरिवार की तरह की स्थापित करता रहा। उन्हें लोकतंत्र में “हम भारत के लोग” की सत्ता में आना बर्दाश्त नहीं हो रहा है।

2 minutes 16 seconds of beating around the mooch…sorry bush. They will repeat Modi’s name 56 times in a single sentence even if he gets an insignificant medal from Sudan. But they won’t call him out for India’s economical & environmental problems even after 12 years. We, us, people, system,politics, Delhi, Punjab, blame game…..that’s their standard vocabulary when they discuss about an issue that is too big to ignore. But still no naming of the ‘Root Cause’ is allowed.
Almost all of the world’s 100 most polluted cities are in India. We are the true ‘Vishwaguru’ of filthy air.

દારૂખાનું અને પતંગો - બીજા લોકો કે પ્રકૃતિ માટે જીવલેણ સાબિત થાય તે સામૂહિક ઉત્સવ કેવી રીતે કહેવાય? મંદિરોમાં કે ઘરમાં ચોપડા પૂજન, રંગોળી, અન્નકૂટ, પરિવાર મિલન અને એકબીજાના ઘરે જમવાનું, વેકેશન વગેરે આપના ઉત્સવની ઓળખ અને પરંપરા છે. દારૂખાનું અને પતંગ કયા દેશથી આવ્યા ?
बिगड़ते AQI और शोर के बीच दीपों का त्योहार पटाखों से मनाना कैसी खुशी? यह बुजुर्गों, बच्चों, बीमारों और बेजुबान पक्षियों व जानवरों के लिए आतंक है। त्योहार खुशियाँ बाँटने के लिए हैं, तकलीफ़ देने के लिए नहीं। पटाखे केवल निर्धारित सार्वजनिक स्थलों पर ही जलाने की अनुमति होनी चाहिए।

ટુ વ્હીલર પર જતા લોકોને ઠેર ઠેર આવી રીતે સાચવીને ઉભા રહીને જવું પડે. ગમે ત્યાંથી રોકેટ કે છૂટો બોમ્બ લોકો ફેંકતા જોવા મળ્યા ગઈકાલે રાતે. ફોર વ્હીલર આગળ છૂટો બોમ્બ ફેંકતા લોકો ખચકાતા નથી ! પ્રદુષણ તો ખરું જ પણ વાહનચાલકો માટે ગઈકાલે રાતે અમદાવાદના રસ્તા પર ફટાકડાનું જોખમ હતું.

મુખ્ય રસ્તાઓ અને વિસ્તારના અંદરના રોડ પર રીતસર ફટાકડા ફોડવાનો કેર વર્તાવેલો. વાહનચાલકો, શિશુ બાળકો, વૃદ્ધો, બીમાર અને પ્રાણીઓ માટે તો આ મુસીબત જ છે. આ કોઈ પરંપરા કે સહજ આનંદ નહીં પણ સામુહિક ગાંડપણ છે. સંગીત કે પરિવાર સાથેની મજામાં આ દૂષણ છે.

हाँ यार मैं नहीं जा पाया लेकिन ऐसे करोड़ों रिश्तेदारों के साथ खड़ा हूँ, उनके लिए ही यहाँ ट्वीट करने में फँसा रहता हूँ। चाहता हूँ कि @narendramodi भी इनके लिए कुछ करें क्योंकि हमारे ऐसे ही रिश्तेदारों को सपने दिखा कर वे तीन बार से प्रधानमंत्री बने बैठे हैं। उम्मीद है कि वे अपने दोस्तों के अलावा हमारे इन रिश्तेदारों के लिए भी कुछ करेंगे। आपके तो बॉस हैं वे आप भी उनसे कहना कि देश की देश ग़रीब जनता जाग जाएगी तो… Read more

“लूज़र होने पर कैसा लगता है, मिस्टर प्रेसिडेंट?” मध्यावधि चुनाव में हार के बाद जब अमेरिकी राष्ट्रपति ट्रंप से स्काई न्यूज़ के पत्रकार @DominicWaghorn ने ये सवाल पूछा तो ट्रंप रूक नहीं बिना बोले चले गए। और रिपोर्टर अभी भी आज़ाद है। 😎 डेमोक्रेसी में पत्रकार ऐसे ही काम करते है।

This is not a political book, it’s a personal one. Much has been written about my family, but rarely with real insight into who they were, their motivations, their struggles, their very human flaws. I wanted to portray them honestly, as people I knew and loved. I write in the Hindu about how Belonging came to be.

પક્ષના દેશી અને કટ્ટરવાદીઓ આવા જ તો છે. એટલે જ તો પક્ષનો એલિટ ક્લાસ આવા બેફામ વર્તન કરનાર અને માવા-તમાકુ ખાનારા સોશિયલ મીડિયા પરના લોકોને પોતાનાથી દૂર જ રાખે છે.

Exactly - સોશિયલ મીડિયા પર સ્કોલર ના હોય તેનો મતલબ એ નથી કે ઈન્ફ્લુએન્સર્સ કે કન્ટેન્ટ ક્રિયેટર જે બોલે એ સાચું હોય !
Well, Professor Sanjeev Bagai is a BC Roy award winning Indian pediatrician, neonatologist, and pediatric nephrologist based in New Delhi, India. He is NOT an influencer or an influencer doctor that Deepinder Goyal claim others to be, who are trying to sabotage his humanity saving device. Prof. Bagai specifies that Temple Device sold for 85000/- rupees is actually not even worth calling a wellness or fitness device. All doctors cannot be on Twitter or on media doing this. But the few ones who are, including myself, speak for the ones who care about the public, and are rational, when we say, TEMPLE is India's original scam, like Elizabeth Holmes did it for Theranos and the USA. No doubts about it. It's basic foundational science is deadass. Like shipping a mummy from Egypt, calling it your Mama and waiting for it to respond.

A long time ago Rajiv and I realised that there was no point in trying to keep up with all that had been written about us. But, as I say in the book, there came a time when I felt that I should tell my own story. Read my interview: thehindu.com/news/national/s…

Zero civic sense. Zero public decorum. Just pure, imagined superiority.
Can anyone say these people are from which state of India? This video apparently is from Vietnam Airport

वाह शर्मा जी! इसे कहते हैं "गोदी" में बैठकर कागज़ी तरक्की का चश्मा पहनना! ₹55 का डॉलर आज ₹94-₹95 की ऐतिहासिक ऊंचाइयों को छू रहा है, और आप 50 पैसे के सुधार को "रुपया मजबूत" होना बताकर दीपावली का बोनस बांट रहे हैं! शेयर बाजार का उछाल देखकर जो आप गद्गद् हो रहे हैं, उससे आम जनता की थाली में क्या पहुंचा? जनता महंगाई की मार झेल रही है और आप इसे "नकारात्मकता का दूर होना" कह रहे हैं। सचमुच, अद्भुत अर्थशास्त्र है आपका! @RahulGandhi @kharge
रुपया मजबूत, शेयर बाजार उछाल पर। दीपावली से पहले एक के बाद एक अच्छी खबर। अर्थव्यवस्था को लेकर फैलाई जा रही नकारात्मकता एक झटके में दूर हो गई।
