◾ FEATURES OF FUNDAMENTAL RIGHTS [ PART - 1]
#Fundamentalrights
1. Some of them are available only to the citizens while others are available to all persons whether citizens, foreigners or legal persons like corporations or companies.
2. They are not absolute but qualified. The state can impose reasonable restrictions on them. However, whether such restrictions are reasonable or not is to be decided by the courts.
3. Thus, they strike a balance between the rights of the individual and those of the society
as a whole, between individual liberty and social control.
4. All of them are available against the arbitrary action of the state. However, some of them are also available against the action of private individuals.

Don't confuse #FundamentalRights with the right in personam.
The right to leave marriage supplements the fundamental right of marrying & has nothing to do, before the marriage or after the dissolution of marriage, with the advantages or disadvantages of a party to the marriage.👇
Advantage and disadvantages of the parties to a marriage should have been addressed through privity of the parties i.e #prenuptial agreement creating right in personam.

#FundamentalRights

एक महीने पहले तक देश की इकोनॉमी, किसान आंदोलन, @yuvahallabol जैसे ग्रुप्स, प्राइवेटाइजेशन के विरुद्ध उठती आवाज़, छात्र आंदोलन आदि जैसे सम्मिलित प्रयास ने बहुत मुश्किल से चुनाव का मुद्दा बेरोज़गारी पे आया था! हेल्थ सेक्टर की बात लोग भूल चुके थे!
1/n
फिर अचानक एक मुद्दा उठता है उडुपी में हिजाब का! मिड सेशन रोकना यूं तो किसी भी समझ वाले को चेता दे की कुछ है, पर तंत्र इतना मज़बूत की परीक्षा के 2 महीने रह गए, संविधान फैसला लेगा और जहां तक मेरी समझ है वो यह ही लेगा की यूनिफॉर्म कॉमन होना चाहिए, पर तब तक चुनाव बीत चुका होता!
2/n
आज के समय में अपने TL खंगाल लो तो दिख जाएगा की (including my TL) की बेरोज़गारी, प्राइवेटाइजेशन, किसान, मंहगाई, शिक्षा और हेल्थकेयर से बड़ा मुद्दा है फंडामेंटल राइट्स का हिजाब vs भगवा वाला! पर शायद लोग भूल गए हैं की ये अघोषित इमरजेंसी है! भूखमरो की! बेरोजगारों की!

This is EVP Margrethe @Vestager speech "Democratic values in a digitalised world" @HumboldtUni 25.10.21. It explains rationales, set up basis for what I think will be a successful #EuropeanDigitalLaw! A speech that will continue to resonate for us #Thread ec.europa.eu/commission/com…
Late 1990: large platforms “emerged and started organizing the internet for what would soon become millions of users around the world.” For 1st time "the platforms acted as global “match-makers” B2C. With “ever-growing match-making” platforms have power, & control. 1/1

Illegal Detention of Aryan Khan by History-sheeter Kiran Gosavi and his "Organized Crime Syndicate".

Can an imposter with criminal record jeopardize the Fundamental Rights of a Citizen of India?
#OrganizedCrimeSyndicate #KiranGosavi

#KanishkJayant Image
1. Kiran Gosavi is described as a private detective in many news articles. Does that mean that Gosavi is hired by NCB? Is it the case that Gosavi does all the work?
2. Gosavi appears at Green Gate, poses as an officer of NCB, abducts Aryan Khan and  uses a vivo x60 pro zeiss cellphone to click selfies with the abducted citizen of India Aryan Khan at 9.31 PM on 2.10.2021.

Citizens protest against Spanish state's imprisonment of a #Catalan rapper @PabloHasel for "crimes of expression" (speech!) that wouldn't bat an eyelid in Ireland. But for the #EU, if it's not happening in #Russia it's not happening. #LlibertatPabloHasel

pscp.tv/w/1MnxnlLAALyGO
For comparison, under laws like these you could throw half of Ireland's folk singers in jail for "glorifying terrorism." It would have a massive chilling effect. Even humour wouldn't be safe. Would @Rubberbandits have self-censored their song "Up the Ra"?

#Spain's alarming lurch into repression of artistic freedoms and freedom of political expression has repeatedly earned it "country of concern" status from civil society watchdogs like @freemuse98, alongside such countries as #Turkey, #Egypt & #SaudiArabia

1/8 👂 WHEN THEY HEAR US: After a majority of respondents called on the EU to ban biometric identification in the #AIWhitePaper consultation, the @EU_Commission says a ban is still being considered.
#BanThisBS #FacialRecognition #MassSurveillance #DemocracyInAction #PeoplePower
2/8 What is at stake with biometric surveillance? Our reality as we know it! We must protect our democratic public spaces– and with them, our freedoms to speak, to assemble, to protest and to express ourselves.

#BanThisBS #FacialRecognition
3/8 Europe, right now 🇪🇺: more than 15 countries have secretly experimented with harmful #Biometric systems like #FacialRecognition in public spaces. They have often ignored existing laws & showed no respect for democracy or critical public opinion.

A thread on some quotes from @gautambhatia88’s “The transformative constitution “In equality jurisprudence, the approach of focusing on the disproportionately exclusionary impact if politics rather than their formal character or motive is known as disparate impact”
“It is based on the premise that inequality and discrimination result not (only) from individual hostile acts, but from structures and institutions.” @gautambhatia88 Only in brackets important & added by me.
An test for entry may be “neutral” but yet exclude by aligning with exclusionary institutions; if an physical entrance test for firefighter includes activities not necessary for fulfilling duties and unintentionally poses #gender-barriers, deserves to be struck down. #NoteToSelf

Today, @NITIAayog released a Discussion Paper titled ‘National Strategy for Artificial Intelligence”. #AIforAll
niti.gov.in/writereaddata/…
We provide our initial thoughts on the paper here. 1/n
We welcome this initiative by @NITIAayog, but a call for comments would have been a welcome addition. The paper takes important steps forward from the #AI Task Force report released earlier this year by the DIPP, Ministry of Commerce and Industry (dipp.nic.in/sites/default/…). 2/n
This paper attempts a more holistic look at a broader range of issues concerning AI including #regulation, #ethics, #fairness, #transparency and #accountability. However, a number of issues still remain with this paper. 3/n
