The increasing reality of modern India and the increasing disconnect this govt and its laws have from it.

Chalo, one more movie will have to be made on this now.

Cinema as propaganda. Always a great historical precedent.

So when State Bank of India said that 'information on donors and recipients was maintained in two separate silos & the process of matching would take time', they were talking bullshit? Anybody surprised?

Okay, looks like this is going to be a longish one. Hold on to your hats!

1. The media's job is to ask questions. Hard questions. Annoying questions. Questions that make the powerful want to toss custard at you. That's not being like the opposition. That's what the job is.

Downloaded the #MumbaiTrafficPolice app today & found a 2-year old challaan with this image as evidence. Could you please share which AI software was used to generate this photo of my “car”, because I think you desperately need an upgrade! मुंबई पोलीस - Mumbai Police

So Kashmiri pandits are the face of 'Naya Kashmir' and the apple of the Fearless Leader's eyes....

....unless their opinions happen to not align with yours.

I was wrong. Now we've reached peak stupidity.

It’s sad that #Kashmir is now a metaphor for a police state and unleashing security forces on civilians. But chalo, mehsoos toh hua.

We have now reached peak idiocy.

No, wait. I'm sure there's potential for more.

These are the 3 roads outside my house. They’ve been like this for 2 months now. The maximum activity I’ve seen here is when the BMC crew manages to hit the gas pipeline, which has happened twice already in the last 3 weeks. Thank you for everything, माझी Mumbai, आपली BMC & Iqbal Singh Chahal.

So what happens to the ₹5,272 crore that the BJP has made from this “unconstitutional” process over the last many years?

Goodbye to 17th Lok Sabha. This was a Lok Sabha of many dubious firsts:

(i) In terms of the number of workdays, this was least productive Lok Sabha (lowest days worked) since 1952.

(ii) The PM did not answer a single question on the floor of the House.

iii) No Deputy Speaker

This is Rohit Arya of the MP High Court. He denied Munawar Faruqi bail even though he hadn't actually started his act. He granted bail to a person accused of outraging someone's modesty by recommending he get a rakhi tied by her. I'm assuming Rajya Sabha after retirement?
