#SupremeCourt to hear today ED’s plea challenging the Madras HC order which allowed the shifting of Tamil Nadu minister Senthil Balaji to private hospital.
#TamilNadu #EnforcementDirectorate Image
SG Mehta: I was going to say that this kind of order sets a wrong precedent. But a common man doesn't get the benefits of habeas when arrested...

#SupremeCourt #SenthilBalaji #EnforcementDirectorate
SG Mehta: Other side's argument would be that it's an interim order, go argue. That I'll address it first. The Supreme Court has held in its judgement that where notice is made returnable and not the date of filing.

The Palk Bay in #TamilNadu has the most abundant seagrass ecosystem in #India. Palk bay is a shallow lagoon-like sea, that allows sunlight to touch the sea floor, creating a fledging green sea grass forest. It supports many aquatic species including highly vulnerable Dugong 1/3
Lately, a lot of Aquaculture companies are started on the eco-sensitive shore of Palk Bay. Releasing the chemical pollutant into shore, it affects the wealth of seagrass & other ecosystem. @supriyasahuias @HemaShares , I req govt to regulate them better, restrict new facility 2/3 Image
Palk bay is a shallow sea shared between TN (India) & Sri Lanka, mostly a waveless sea, like a large lake. One of the 5 sediment sink in #India. Sediments from Palk Bay & Gulf of Manner dumped here. It has clear water & seagrass. It is rich fishing ground & snorkeling place 3/3 ImageImageImageImage

I wanted to find a better way to use discarded plastic and help clean the environment," says Tamil Nadu’s K Sankar, who, along with his son Senthil Sankar manufactures clothing using recycled #PETbottles.
The utilization of polyethylene terephthalate (PET) bottles extends to packaging several things, but these bottles often end up in landfills, where they can take considerable time to break down.

Game-plan of Cheap Opposition Boycotting Inauguration of #NewParliamentBuilding !

Enough said on how PM Modi Ji turned 20 Opposition Parties Boycott in a Flop-show!

Let's now talk about who is Winner & Loser among Opposition Parties!!

1/15
💐Clear Winner is CONgress!

Let's start with why CONgress boycotted Inauguration Ceremony? Was it really over it's opposition to “Dictator" PM Modi?Was it blind Modi-hate?

Everyone thought so.But it wasn't the case.Boycotting Inauguration was राजनैतिक मजबूरी for CONgress.

2/15
Just imagine if CONgress would have participated in Inauguration!
Consequence?
🔸Rahul Gandhi wouldn't have EVEN got invitation as he is NO-MORE Member of LS
🔸Priyanka Gandhi couldn't have got invitation even to sweep Parliament Campus as she is not Member of ANY House.

India is a veritable #TowerofBabel, with more than two dozen official languages and hundreds of dialects.

This has caused lots of tension because everyone wants to preserve their culture. There's also the feeling that there should be some link language to connect the whole.
(1/)
For a long time, #English was the link language, but self-styled nationalists, especially from the ruling #BJP, felt this was a betrayal of "Indian" values.

So they kept pushing for the use of #Hindi as the #NationalLanguage.

(2/)
But Hindi is not even spoken by a majority (>50%) of Indians. It is merely spoken by the most Indians.

So people of other ethnicities worry that under Hindi domination, their languages would disappear.

A three-language formula was suggested as far back as the 1960s.

Stories of Tamils in Moreh town of Manipur is fascinating. Moreh is a multicultural town located on the Burma border. In 1962, Military Junta Ne Win, threw out Tamil's from Burma . Many Tamil's who came back to #TamilNadu, found it poor with no job, tried to go back to Burma 1/5
Rangoon Tamils who were born & brought up in the lush green field of Burma tried to re-enter Burma, but Burmese Army blocked them, so settled in the border jungles of Moreh in Manipur. In 1970 Moreh had >13000 Tamils, with their Burma connect, started dominating border trades 2/5 ImageImage
Tamil started dominating the border trade between India & Burma often it sis illegal. Tamil's domination in business led to 1992 Kuki tribe violence, they burnt the town business of Tamils, and many left the town and migrated to Tamil Nadu, now only ~3000 Tamils live there 3/5 Image

This map shows the population projection for the year 2036 by the National Commission on Population Report 2020. It projects #TamilNadu and Himachal will have the lowest population growth in this coming decade and TN will have the highest median age in #India at 40.5 yrs 1/4 Image
I feel projections for Tamil Nadu and Karnataka are very conservative. I feel TN population will be better than the projection. Reports finding show TN population will stagnate at 7.8Cr for 4-5 yrs then will start to decline, TN fertility rate will decline to 1.51 2/4 Image
The next 15yrs are crucial for #TamilNadu, we need to grow to be upper-middle-class economy with 8lakh per capita income in next 15yrs. TN has to achieve 1 Trillion economy in next 10yrs to reach USD 13000 per capita GDP. I wish the best for govt to achieve 1Trillion target 3/4 Image

Shame on Tamil Nadu Government!!

You not only lied but also rejected the sacrifice of life made by Ariyalur and Lavanya, Lavanya was constantly being forced by Christian Missionaries to convert to #Christianity, she chose her death rather than converting.

#religiousconversion Image
#Lavanya was just a 17 year old girl studying in 12th standard, due to these Missionaries she had lost her life and you are saying no cases of Conversion had reported in the state.

Shame on you and your Reporting!! Image
There are hundreds of Minor Girls and Boys like Lavanya who are being constantly pressurized by these Missionaries to convert, rather than taking action against these missionaries you are saying there are no missionaries and no forced Religious conversion in the state.
