My Lords, there is nothing personal in the criticism of the judiciary or those who helm it. (1/n)

"Like Seervai and the four former judges, some feel it is their duty to speak out, maybe even to indulge in personal criticism, for a larger cause." (2/n)

This is because inconsistencies in judicial pronouncements, particularly those that go against the disadvantaged and opponents of government, are only increasing. (3/n)

Hi, need to ask you for a little help today. My cook in Bangalore, Jayant had to go to Orissa just before the lockdown started to take care of his new born daughter who was extremely sick. He came back in the middle of the lockdown and had lost all his previous jobs. 1/n

For the past 2 months, he has been struggling to make ends meet and is unable to send money back home to feed his child. He's in desperate need for work. He's an amazing cook, the best I have had and more importantly he's an amazing human being. 2/n

He would take care of me while I was sick, arrange almost anything that you ask of him. He's extremely humble and punctual. Would be extremely grateful if you could help him find any kind of work during this lockdown. 3/n
