No major infra project in Bengaluru has been completed by BJP
Triple engine govt but Bengaluru's infra has collapsed, roads are worst ever. No yearly targets for these

Tejasvi & Bengaluru are symbolic of what's wrong with New India
No work. Only bigoted talk.
It happened because of relentless pursuing of this issue by courageous journalists like you. Your article was the inflexion point. Now Justice has to be delivered. Let's push for that.

The news spreading about IAS Girish Murmu becoming CM is false. After fighting against one Pandian ....BJP can not afford to chose another officer to hold CM office. Enough of Babu Raj in Odisha.
The people of Odisha have questions and apprehension in their mind, they demand the answers to which they are entitled.
Naveen stands answerable to the people...
Why you couldn't speak odia despite being an Odia and being in power for 25 years?

There is a Barkha Dutt interview and there are the rest. Only you can get the best out of such a personal interview to get to know the interviewee better. And Channi got the best out of him here as well, so charming, humble, grounded; truly a gem to have come out of Congress.

And especially how

Thank you Odisha! It’s a resounding victory for good governance and celebrating Odisha’s unique culture.
BJP will leave no stone unturned in fulfilling the dreams of people and taking Odisha to new heights of progress.
I am very proud of all our hardworking Party Karyakartas
@ARanganathan72
Odisha Healthcare is in a big mess, education is even worse and so is job crisis and increased crime rate but still Right ecosystem commentaries makes look Naveen Patnaik as a hero. This doesn't help BJP growth in Odisha and Odisha remains a poor state.

Thanks Barkha for the clarity. It's a real mess made by the Twitter team which exactly shows their lack of understanding of society and what is appropriate for the community they have built or it was done by some employee who had an agenda.

To be honest any party would have been lucky to have Jay Panda. When I was a student activist many years ago, had me you at your BBSR residence. Knew that moment that this was a leader with a difference. You have rightly said there is no price for Dignity and Respect.
Was speaking to a colleague who is from Kendrapada, he explained how state machinery and gangsters like Tito Usman were used by ruling party for intimidation and money distribution to defeat
@PandaJay
. This was never a fair fight from the beginning for Jay Panda sadly.
What “I have a dream” speech by Dr King did for the Civil Rights Movement in US, today’s speech by

This is how so many careers get destroyed because of players following their agents than their own passion for football. Just see Coutinho for example, could have been a club legend.
This is what happens when the Liberals get obsessed about opposing everything under the sun and become so parochial that they lose a sense of objective and reason. Well argued
@BDUTT
Private money bankrolls our newspapers, TV, universities, healthcare, NGOs- making it too late & disingenuous for us to be socialist chic. Why I think liberal protests against 'adopting' of Red Fort or Taj are low on reason. My piece in
@washingtonpost
I believed these stories when I heard my next door neighbor (married boy and girl, no kids) fighting recently. The girl kept shouting expletives you "mother fu***", cheap f***, bas**** and what not to her husband. Poor guy was simply defending himself meekly.
So many men are facing such abuse from their wives on a daily basis. Sadly India's domestic violence law doesn't recognise men as victims. The only two options for this man is to either continue to suffer or face wrath of false cases by his wife in case he files divorce!

The new product to sell is The Perfect Couple. The endorsements that they have got in the last few years is around this positioning. Hence what your are saying looks about right.

Aditya Menon has revived the art of political reporting and analysis. Its been while journalists in delhi had made their craft too lazy and banal focusing more on sources and gosssip. And the best part of his writing is it doesn’t have an agenda but trying to demystify politics.

Bhartruhari Mahtab has distinguished himself in his long stint in the Lok Sabha and has raised the image of Odisha at this most important of national forums. I wish him continued success!
It was my privilege to have been part of the committee headed by the Hon'ble Speaker🙏🏼
In the name of identity politics the extent politicians go, this is the most reprehensible face of identity politics that a sitting CM is hugging the killer of an ex PM of India.
Terrorist AG Perarivalan gets death sentence for killing ex-PM Rajiv Gandhi.
Court commutes it to life in jail.
SC sets him free.
Tamil Nadu CM Stalin gives him a hero’s hug.
This is why so many of Indian cities and streets are named after invaders, colonisers, mass murderers.

A colleague who is ex-Zomato told me he was working in a super low entry level role there. But his CV shows something different. Fraud ultimately gets called out.
Basically what I understand is according to the courts : everyone is free to do whatever they want only the consequences are on the man. Literally no protection for men from these laws.
I wonder what's even the meaning of marriage now that anyone can be in a sexual relationship with someone else while being married & our courts are putting official stamps on it in the name of "freedom & right"
And if freedom to choose is so important, why not grant immediate

Karan Kataria a student at London school of economics was barred from student Union elections for being associated with RSS. Mukulika Banerjee a Prof. at LSE who was part of Bharat Jodo Yatra possibly orchestrated this disbarment shows the
#Hinduphobic
agenda of Team Rahul Gandhi
Read detailed report by Firstpost to know how much Rahul Gandhi hates RSS that his aide orchestrated the disbarment of a Hindu student at the so called prestigious London School of Economics.
#CongressAgainstHindus
The two most significant data point from India Today
#MoodOfTheNation
survey which shows the future of our politics:
1. 53% people think
#Modi
is the best person to lead India, Rahul Gandhi is at 9%
2. 52% people think Gandhi’s are unfit to lead the Congress
Together it adds up
2. Congress for it's DNA of being against hindutva and their vendetta against RSS members that a close aide of Rahul Gandhi plays a role in the disbarment of Karan Kataria. This exposes how hate for RSS makes Congress hate Hindus in India and outside India.
If preventing a terrorist attack by taking pre-emptive actions is now called warmongering then so be it. So what do all these romantic peacemongers suggest, India as a nation will not defend itself from the aggression of it's enemies. Its the duty of a nation to protect itself.
This episode exposes two institutions:
1. London School of Economics for being outright discriminatory against Hindus and having an agenda against RSS, the Hindu cause and having vendetta against a cultural organization with global repute and with a world wide presence.
We should vehemently demand that London School of Economics should apologise to Karan and allow him to participate in the Students Union elections and those like Mukulika who orchestrated this disbarment should be penalized. An example needs to be made of this

Every big idea which is ahead of its time looks ridiculous to naysayers and critics. For Congress the idea of India as developed nation is a fantasy because they could never envision an India being a super power. They said similar things about digitization and UPI. Truth is the

Now they have problem with Bharat. India if it's actually a Union of different states then the country would have a been called so. Congress can't accept that Sanantan Dharma is the unifying factor that makes India or Bharat a Rashtra with one soul and identity. They want India
#NewsKiMaut
has already happened for me over the last few years, now only consume news though the newage digital platforms. That's how I keep myself sane.
BJP has always been the proponent of the Bombay Club and opposed computers and opening up the Indian economy. Nothing has changed. This is a govt of the crony, by the crony and for the crony. They will ground the economy and destroy the social fabric of the country by 2024.

@NayanimaBasu
Our vicious politics always trumps goof economics. You can see how tycoons sabotage reform & competition & Govt is only too happy to oblige them.
In the larger context, India and Indian consumers always lose.
Thanks to the new life, I am playing cricket almost every evening. Finally....in form! IPL team owners, I am available to play free of cost for you. Just two requests- game should be played with tennis ball and after scoring 50 runs, I should be allowed a runner !😜😜
Yeah they want their fat salaries to continue and also want to wash off themselves from the stains of their channels. Hypocrisy much. Doesn’t work this way, if you don’t agree with your org, either change the org or change the job.
Most fascinating is TV anchors who disassociate themselves from their own shows, coverage and channels. By day they tweet about how real issues will get priority, how they won't run media trials & by night they are feeding off the same salacious crap. Wondrous schizophrenia
Till Prashant Kishore is a political consultant and keeps helping people coming to power, the political establishment will be in live with him. The day he tries to be one of them, you will see how is being treated. His relevance will depend on his services rendered.

Guru Prakash Ji rightly captures the betrayal again by Nitish Kumar as pure infamy. Nitish Kumar himself is a epithet for infamy the way he changes allies like changing clothes to suit his mood of the day. Such betrayal of public trust needs to be answered back by the people.
RSS sakhas has been canvassing votes for Trump in the US and after Modi’s blatant interference in US election by doing Ab ki Baar Trump Sarkaar, it’s hypocritical of the BJP to expect Bidden-Harris to forget this and surely will have repercussions.
