The statements after the latest round of talks with #China clearly show that they’ll continue to remain on Indian territory & @PMOIndia can do nothing. Sad that a new status quo has been created on LAC. This denies our forces access to the areas they traditionally patrolled. 1/
This loss of control over our territory to China has been on for 20 months, but Parliament has not been briefed in detail nor have questions been taken in an open press conference. Why is Modi silent? Or does he still say that no one has encroached our territory? 2/
Citizens need to know the full truth. An all party parliamentary delegation must be taken to Ladakh to independently study the situation. There must be a full debate in Parliament. Modi’s strategy is to spin half truths. There’s no real plan to deal with Chinese aggression 3/
We need to know if govt even has a strategy when Chinese ‘visit’ Uttarakhand or Arunachal again. Is it going to be more of the same?
Bottom line is that the current situation is unacceptable, and the blame solely lies on Modi govt. Our soldiers and our country deserve better 4/
Absolutely condemnable. Condolences to families of martyrs for their supreme sacrifice. Increasing violence in Kashmir is clear proof of Modi govt’s false claims that intelligence was ramped up after Pulwama & militancy was finished after DeMo/Aug5 2019
29 civilians - including workers from pro-India parties - have been killed this year. 22/29 were Muslim. My prayers are with the families of all victims. These are TARGETED KILLINGS perpetrated by Pak. What kind of LOC ceasefire is this @PMOIndia?! u.afp.com/Uvnz
Modi’s weak foreign policy is causing unabated domestic chaos
If we fail to stop this spate of killings in J&K, my fear is that it’ll spread across India. I hope my fears don’t come true.

Modi’s speech on human rights at #NHRC today exposed his problematic & incorrect understanding of human rights. Most unfortunate part was that there was only one passing mention of the constitution, but references to ‘tradition’, ‘culture’ & religion could be found throughout.
1. A constant Hindutva talking point was repeated by Modi; that human rights & duties are dependent on each other. No. Rights against state always trump duties. Duties are not enforceable, rights are.
People in power failed to discharge their duties. This resulted in a deadly second wave where people died without vaccines, oxygen & hospital beds
आज कुछ उग्रवादी गुंडों ने मेरे दिल्ली के मकान पर तोड़-फोड़ की।इनकी बुज़दिली के चर्चे तो वैसे ही आम हैं।हमेशा की तरह, इनकी वीरता सिर्फ़ झुंड में ही दिखाई देती है।वक्त भी ऐसा चुना जब मैं घर पर नहीं था। गुंडों के हाथों में कुल्हाड़ियाँ और लकड़ियाँ थीं, घर पर पत्थर बाज़ी की गयी। 1/n
मेरा नेम प्लेट तोड़ा गया और 40-साल से हमारे साथ काम करने वाले राजू के साथ मार-पीट भी की गयी।
साम्प्रदायिक नारे लगाए गए और मुझे क़त्ल करने की धमकी भी दी गयी। राजू के घर में रहने वाले छोटे से बच्चे घबराए हुए हैं।झुंड में कम-अज़-कम 13 लोग थे। 6 दिल्ली पुलिस की हिरासत में हैं। 2/n
उम्मीद है के पोलिस करवाई करेगी।
मेरे घर को ये तीसरी बार निशाना बनाया गया है।पिछली बार जब ऐसा हुआ था तब @rajnathsingh न सिर्फ़ गृह मंत्री थे बल्कि मेरे पड़ोसी भी थे।मेरे घर के बग़ल में ही निर्वाचन सदन है, और ठीक सामने पार्लियामेंट स्ट्रीट थाना भी है। 3/n
उत्तर प्रदेश के 19 प्रतिशत आबादी वाले मुसलामानों का एक भी जिला अध्यक्ष नहीं है। मंसूबा बंद तरीक़े से हमें सियासी, म'आशी और समाजी तौर पर दूसरे दर्जे का शहरी बना दिया गया है।1/n
उत्तर प्रदेश की एक सियासी पार्टी खुद को भाजपा का सबसे प्रमुख विपक्षी दल बताती है। ज़िला पंचायत के चुनाव में उनके 800 सदस्यों ने जीत दर्ज की थी, लेकिन अध्यक्ष के चुनाव में मात्र 5 अध्यक्ष की सीटों पर उनकी जीत हुई है ऐसा क्यों? क्या बाक़ी सदस्य भाजपा के गोद में बैठ गए हैं? 2/n
मैनपुरी, कन्नौज, बदायूँ, फ़र्रूख़ाबाद, कासगंज, औरैया, जैसे ज़िलों में इस पार्टी के सबसे ज़्यादा प्रत्याशी जीत कर आए थे, लेकिन अध्यक्ष के चुनाव फिर भी हार गए, इन सारे ज़िलों में तो कई सालों से ‘परिवार विशेष’ का दबदबा भी रहा है। 3/n
Assam has already achieved replacement levels of TFR 2.1. National TFR is 2.2. In simple words, there’s no population explosion 1/n
Central govt has itself opposed coercive family planning & called it unnecessary in the Supreme Court

Your govt should worry about skewed sex ratio due to barbaric practice of sex-selective abortions. It’s projected that even in 2036 Assam’s sex ratio will still be seriously skewed in favour of men. There’s a clear need to fight against underlying sexist cultural ideas 3/n
Thanks to @PMOIndia for another episode of an unnecessary lecture that could have been a press release. Reversal of vax policy seems to be result of SC's order. Although blame of a terrible vaccine policy has been put on states, it's Modi who failed to ensure vax supply 1/n
Modi put politics before saving lives. Did it create horrible "liberalised" vaccine policy just to insult states? It's always chosen gimmicks over efforts to increase vax production. Forget everything else, only question for PM is why's there such large shortage of vaccines? 2/n
Till April, no money was spent on ramping up vaccine production. If there are no vaccines, it does not matter who procures it. Not surprisingly, private hospitals will continue to have 25% quota so that rich have ‘VIP queue’, while poor have to wait for vaccine availability 3/n
