Unpopular opinion: A major reason people like Modi, is that he makes their bigotry feel like patriotism, their hatred feels like courage, and their lack of civic sense feels like nationalism.
He didn’t create the ugliness in them; he just made it socially acceptable to flaunt it.
First Nagpur and then Varanasi. All happened right after this tweet. Who is advising the PM? Is it time for some introspection in PMO? Is everything okay? Any thoughts @ShekharGupta @PrabhuChawla @ShefVaidya ? Is @AshwiniVaishnaw and @ECISVEEP doing their job right????!!!!

Torrent donated Rs 137 crore to #BJP through electoral bonds.
The same #Torrent group was provided tax exemption of Rs 285 crores in the past by the BJP-Shiv Sena government headed by Devendra Fadnavis. In May 2019, the Torrent Power was given exemption from paying Rs 285 crore in property tax, including interest and penalties, to the Bhiwandi-Nizampur Municipal Corporation.
Torrent is in news again, this time, over its pumped-storage project in #Karjat , Maharashtra, which has sparked a controversy over the felling of thousands of trees. n/n

Dear Mrs. Sitarama,
1.Which "legal and commercial matter" required Tata Trusts and Tata Sons to be hosted at Amit Shah's residence?
2.When is crony number 1 going to appear in the game and which pieces of Tata is he going to get?
Finally, all India's businesses except 3-4 of your cronies, already hate all of you and don't need any incitement.
Being the LoP @RahulGandhi, I suggest you refrain from politicising every issue. Also, casually labelling commercial and legal matters as criminal is unacceptable.
You have repeatedly decried the successes of Indian industry & our entrepreneurs. Now, are you trying to incite our business leaders to join you in spreading distrust & toxicity?
For decades, your party had smothered the spirit of the Indian entrepreneurs under the stifling ‘Licence-Quota Raj’ & inflicted poverty on crores of Indians.
On the other hand, our government led by PM @narendramodi values the Indian industry as job creators & drivers of economic growth. Our policies have been tailored to enable enterprise, support industry and encourage investment.
Political parties, leaders, governments and institutions share an equal responsibility to support our industry, strengthen our farmers and secure the future of our youth.
Therefore, it is essential to engage constructively rather than casting baseless aspersions to suit your narrow political motives.
The Constitution of India ensures justice to all its citizens & our Honourable Courts are entrusted with upholding it. History is witness to the shoddy manner in which you, your party and the PMs belonging to your party have demeaned the judiciary.
So Rahul ji, refrain from seeing ghosts everywhere.

Meta has struck a deal with Mark Zuckerberg to keep him living in California after the CEO warned he was considering leaving the state that houses the company's headquarters if voters pass a wealth tax proposal next month reut.rs/3TPz4YX
Meta invested ₹43,574 cr in Jio in 2020 for a 9.98% stake, which on listing will be valued at nearly ₹1 lakh cr. Sounds incredible, till one realises that Meta would have made significantly more money investing in Nasdaq, S&P or its own shares. State of Indian eco/entre...
What a great news in a rather depressing day.

Pillay is a South African jurist of Indian Tamil descent.
She defended anti-apartheid activists, presided over the UN tribunal for Rwanda, served as a judge on the International Criminal Court, was UN High Commissioner for Human Rights, and chaired the UN inquiry into Israel and Gaza.
Pillay’s work on the Rwanda tribunal helped establish that rape can constitute an act of genocide.
Pillay headed the UN commission that concluded Israel committed genocide in Gaza. Her credibility was attacked by the Israeli government and various organizations that support the State of Israel.

We are not going to stop protesting till Gyanesh Kumar resigns.
This is a fight to protect the most sacred thing in this country.
There is nothing that Narendra Modi and Amit Shah can do that will stop us.

Disturbing visuals from Janpath where LoP-LS Rahul Gandhi, Wayanad MP Priyanka Gandhi and other INDIA leaders have been dragged away and arrested once again by the Delhi Police. INDIA janbandhan leaders were simply attempting to reach Jantar Mantar to register their protest against the capture of the electoral system through the CEC. The brutal handling of elected representatives by the police shows the utter contempt of the poisonous pair of PM-HM for our Constitution and democracy.
This is the reality of the We Will Do It proclaimed by the Slogan Sultan today.

Shameful visuals coming in from Delhi.
The entire country is watching this and taking a note of the national embarrassment that the @DelhiPolice has become.

At some stage Narendra Modi will realise that the longer this goes on the more it looks as though he is clinging on to Gyanesh because he needs him to rig elections for him.
His refusal to listen to the protesters has become counter productive

The way the LoP is being treated is shameful. Delhi police has done the impossible- it’s managed to make UP police look like a professional force in comparison!

Mumbai airport's mandatory freighter shift to Navi Mumbai (NMIA) is leading to increased cargo delays.
A Manchester-bound pharma shipment on Challenge Group's freighter service faces a 15-day delay + 20-25% cost hike after being forced to reroute via Ahmedabad, Dubai and London Stansted.
The shipment was first sent to Navi Mumbai, where it was stored after the logistics company was unable to use the new airport as a gateway.
Challenge Group, Lufthansa Cargo and Emirates SkyCargo are among airlines who have temporarily suspended or relocated scheduled Mumbai cargo services amid concerns over operational reliability.
MIAL says the NMIA shift is temporary for T1 redevelopment.

Just goes on to prove that Indians, especially, at the highest levels of educational, financial and professional achievement are hopelessly clannish, corrupt, self-serving, shambolic humans.
A man willing to shortchange his shareholders for his ambition wants to talk about governance issue elsewhere. Wah! banger @varunstweets 👍.
