Looks like it is time to move this thread on #NDTV forward!
92
This reminds me of a dialogue from the game GTA II which I used to play sometime in the last decade - 'REMEMBER, RESPECT IS EVERYTHING'!
Oh, and the single quotes for 'respect' .. if that cannot make you fall in love with the good folks manning the #NDTV offices, nothing will!
93
Sometimes I wonder would an allegedly renowned media house so proudly quote 'Foreign Media' in the main headline IN ADDITION to the usual disclaimer at the end of the report.. But then I tell myself, it is #NDTV!
94
Disclaimer: The screenshot on left on 'Abusive Handles' is in no way related to the screenshot of a couple of tweets of the #NDTV anchor.
I just felt I should post them here together, on a whim.
Seriously!
95
Facts are facts .. however, what is a few words in Queen's English here and there if it suits our narrative, this time about the role of the State as represented by it's police force, hainji?
96
If only 'Jumping to Conclusions' were an Olympic event, we'd never have any dearth of medals!
97
This screenshot, I'll just leave over here in this thread without any comments
98
Ah, this one reminded me of the hashtag #HafizKiBarkha, and the outrage it caused - both secular as well as communal!
Thank God for Twitter!
99
Aise editorial errors ho jaate hain kabhi kabhi!
100
A brutally polite lesson in tolerance!
Incidentally, I'm unable to find the original tweet of Barkha Ji that triggered this convo .. it might be my browser, or the tweet might have been deleted for all I know!
101
I wonder what triggered this hashtag about #NDTV .. but some of the responses are truly 'hilarious'!
102
It is no secret that the Pakistani establishment is not very happy with @TarekFatah, but #NDTV too???
Hawwww!!
But, trust @TarekFatah to give it back in his own way!
103
It was allegedly a bug which caused this on the #NDTV website!
🤣
(PS: Click on the screenshot to see the full story)
104
Damn those 'editorial gaffes' .. they never stop!
But the best part is that this tweet by #NDTV STILL hasn't been taken down and amended!
Well, atleast they give image credits at the end of the tweet!!
🤣🤣
105
The #NDTV tweet quoted by @muglikar_ might indeed be yet another 'innocent editorial error' for all we know, but then, he is not the only one calling it otherwise!
106
PAID audience?
Now whoever heard about that!
:D
107
Sab miley hue hain ji .. this is not fake applause .. there is a perfect explanation for it given more than a century ago by Shri Hermann Minkowski Ji.
TIME IS THE FOURTH DIMENSION!
THAT is how the fellow is asking the ques & clapping at the same time!
108
Fetish with single quotes is quite understandable, but the word 'suspect' in any case means things are not confirmed. Why put that in single quotes?
Chalo, small mercy that the word 'alleged' didn't figure in this report!
:D
109
For the nth time .. #NDTV has NO double standards whatsoever .. they have just one standard .. Got that??
😠
110
If there is one thing you can't blame the good folks at #NDTV for, it is CONFIDENCE!
:D
111
I will sign off on this thread for the time being with this VERY interesting conversation that a star #NDTV anchor had with @amritabhinder
I am assuming there were no lawsuits filed, though!
😇

Here in #NDTV we very strongly believe that behind every silver lining there is a dark cloud!
114
I can almost see the next headline - 'Banana Planters Go Out Of Business After Bridge Connects Village To School'!
115
(Refer tweet number 113)
Yo NDTV so patriotic that they don't give a damn about Chinese boatsmen!
Their concerns only concern Indian boatsmen!

Folks, sharing some thoughts on the #KartarpurCorridor in the next few tweets.
Let's see how it goes ..
2
#KartarpurCorridor
Firstly, about Gurudwara Dera Saheb Kartarpur. It was here that Guru Nanak spent a chunk of his last years at that location. Hence the emotional attachment of Sikhs to that place.

#KartarpurCorridor
Secondly, about its physical location. The Gurudwara is located just above 2km from the nearest point on the Indian Border, across the Ravi River.
Thus, a corridor for controlled access to the Gurudwara is eminently feasible.
Here is a Google Maps screenshot.

Wishing Happy #WalongDay to 6 KUMAON
Went to their deaths heroically & steadfastly, without any fuss
Just so that a General could please a PM on his birthday
This day in 1962 - The only attack by Indian army was launched - As a birthday gift from a general to a PM
A heavy price was paid by Kumaonis that night
Denied even 1 day to prepare for the attack,they went in as ordered.
Out of the over 200 men that had gone into the attack, only 90 returned

The Order of Light - Story #Thread
I just got into town and needed a place to stay, but for some unknown reason, everywhere seemed occupied, after checking the last motel available, I was left with no choice, but look for a secluded spot to just pass the night. It was dark, the moon had a faint glow about it, and
with all the occupied houses, one would have expected some domestic noises, but everywhere was quiet, it didn’t bother me anyway. As I walked with my backpack, I saw a house down the street that looked abandoned and overgrown with weed, “perfect spot” I thought to myself, it was

#Thread During #KeralaFloods many of the people lost their crucial documents. It was a big mess to recover these documents since they don't even remember the document no. Hence, Kerala IT department came up with an API architecture to retrieve the documents. (1/n)
The idea was generated jointly by IT secretary M.Sivasankar and KSUM CEO Saji Gopinath. The target was to retrieve the documents by taking the basic inpit values known to the public. It startes working last day (2/n)
Incase of Aadhaar, govt will take your biometrics as the input value to generate E-Aadhaar if one doesn't remember the ID number. This will be pushed into Digilocker account created. Also will get a print out for free of cost. (3/n)

Integrity! Integrity!! Integrity!!! The fact that this is the reason many myopic Nigerians want an obviously inept, outdated, grossly incompetent, nepotistic, ruiner-in-chief dictator, who has no single value for d rule of law, court orders, contemporary style of govt..
#THREAD
...tells a lot about how low we Nigerians sunk in our core values, that a one eyed man is now so heavily worshipped among his perceived or seemingly blind society, that two eyed men who see clearly no longer have a voice or given a chance to speak! How can we...
..worship a man of "integrity" when that is just d most basic of qualifications every normal average citizen of a country shld have? When did jst mouthed, albeit unproven deceptive integrity become a reason for someone to serve in office? Are we not all supposed 2have integrity?

THREAD: Remember, Remainers: whenever Brexiters like Boris Johnson & Jacob Reed-Mogg say moronic attention-grabbing things (about the Camden-Islington border or whatever), *they WIN the argument even when they lose the argument*. We need to get smarter before it’s too late...
2/
 When they spout this jaw-dropping shit (remember the Boris bridge?) or repeat widely discredited claims (£350m per week; EU tariffs impoverish African farmers) plenty of well-informed people jump in & prove they are wrong/stupid. They “lose the argument”. But they don’t care..
3/
 They are not trying to “win the argument” (in the sense of winning ppl over & convincing those who currently don’t support Brexit that it is a good idea). They are trying to *distract* (think Lynton Crosby’s ‘dead cat’ strategy). They are setting the news agenda...
