PM #Modi adopting a sombre and measured cadence ..warming up slowly. #PMinLokSabha
2/n Now coming to #Corona ....for the first time speaking aggressively on the pandemic after nearly two years. He was waiting for this day. Rebuttal is best served cold. #NarendraModi #PMinLokSabha 3/n
3/n Recounts the role of Congress in Maharashtra and AAP in Delhi in encouraging reverse migration to #UttarPradesh, #Punjab #PMinLokSabha 4/n
5/n Sarcasm at its best: PM Modi says seems to have made up its mind that it does not want to come back to power for another 100 years. Goes back to Congress' role of during #Corona and amplification by the (Left-Lib) "ecosystems". #PMInLokSabha 6/n
6/n #LokSabha: Hearing some MPs from #WestBengal - find it difficult to believe the state had once produced some of the finest parliamentarians. Some, of them, are outright embarrassment. #PMinLokSabha #PMinParliament 7/n
7/n #PMinLokSabha PM #Modi turns to farmers and subtly runs in the opposition's partiality towards big farmer lobby. #PMinParliament 8/n
8/n #LokSabha The more PM Modi baits #AdhirRanjanChowdhury, he walks deeper into his web. #PMinLokSabha #PMinParliament 9/n
9/n #LokSabha #Modi's #Parliament speeches are never complete without mentioning #PChidambaram. He quotes Chidambaram's statements on prices and inflation during his tenure as Finance Minister in UPA. #PMinLokSabha #PMinParliament 10/n
10/n It is difficult to imagine #AdhirRanjanChowdhury is the Leader of India's GOP in #LokSabha. What a fall in standards. But, may be some will find streaks of statesmanship in his interjections. #PMinLokSabha #PMinParliament 11/n
12/n PM #Modi comes directly on the question of "Union of States" and starts with a quote of #Nehru on the concept of "nation" ("rashtra"). Refers to Vishnu Puran's definition of "nation". #PMinLokSabha #PMinParliament 12/n
13/n PM #Modi quotes Subramania Bharati in Tamil on the idea of India. Expresses his appreciation for the honour extended to CDS Vipin Rawat - Veer Vanakkam. Says Congress has become the leader of "Tukde Tukde Gang. #PMinLokSabha #PMimParliament 13/n
14/n PM #Modi says - those who have failed to defeat us democratically is trying to derail the government through anarchy in Parliament. If seen carefully - Congress' "game-plan" will be clear. #PMinLokSabha #PMinParliament 15/n
15/n Assuming for a second that #RahulGandhi managed to make an impression in Parliament - it is being blown to bits by his party's leader in Lok Sabha. #PMinLokSabha #PMinParliament 16/n
16/n PM #Modi quotes #Nehru on the "responsibility" of citizens in a democracy. The message should also reach those who feel talking of people's "responsibilities" or "duties" is a sign of fascists and dictators. #PMinLokSabha #PMinParliament 16/16
#RahulGandhi by his conspicuous absence from the #LokSabha during PM #NarendraModi's speech in Parliament yet again displayed his disdain for a popularly elected #PrimeMinister and own sense of entitlement. #PMModiInLokSabha #PMModiInParliament (was #SoniaGandhi present?)

.@ShyamalMajumdar Never expected @bsindia to be so shoddy on #FactCheck (that too in an editorial - not op-Ed). #MadhyaPradesh have been following vaccine holidays since May (see 👇). Besides, as a business daily BS ought to know basic principles Ops Management. This obsession
2/n to diss the #VaccineDrive even by respectable newspapers is baffling. Be that as it may 1) Inventory Management is neither usual nor a sin. It is routine practice in any ops 2) It is common sense that when supply chain is shifted from one channel to another (in this case 3/n
3/n from States to Centre) some dislocation is inevitable (in your and mine home state liquor distribution was disrupted for 3 months when the state took it over through its own agency😀); 3) Surge Tests are standard - to establish capacity, build confidence by demonstrating 4/n

Caught a little of the #BengalClub Annual Panel Discussion on FB. Political posturing apart - irony dies a thousand deaths when the @CPIM_WESTBENGAL panellist @BikashranjanBh4 calls #AbbasSiddiqui “secular” and says the youth of #WestBengal are again turning towards the left 2/n
2/n which world do they live in and what do they think Bengali youth smoke these days. @DrAMSinghvi was, of course most balanced (with @INCIndia having no stakes in #WestBengal anymore - @adhirrcinc pls note) except for his carping on ED, CBI and farm laws but impressed by 3/n
3/n the @AITMC panellist @SantanuSenMP talking with utter conviction about the development of #WestBengal across all sectors by #TrinamoolCongress. The ever suave @DinTri repeated #NarendraModi’s reference to #SyamaPrasadMukherjee as the founder of Jan Sangh (by default BJP) 4/n

.@nandu79 To me the appointment of @pbmehta as VC itself looks problematic in hindsight. Did he join #AshokaUniversity as a scholar or activist? Were the TOR clearly agreed with the trustees @PramathSinha? Can Mehta's articles be considered academic work or extra-curricular? 2/n
2/n if the latter, a distinction needed to be made. If it was the latter and so important to him - it is only fair that he steps down and follows his calling either as an independent voice or from an appropriate forum, not as the VC of #AshokaUniversity. This is a fundamental 3/n
3/n priciple of "conflict of interest" to be followed not just in "corporate organisations" but any institution. For example, in media if someone is appointed as an Editor (not for her/his political views) but for her credentials of a professional editor #AshokaUniversity 4/n

Hold @pbmehta in high regard. Also @PramathSinha founder trustee and many others at @AshokaUniv. Don’t know the circumstances of his quitting. But conversely, as many are saying, cancel culture of “non left” voices at liberal institutions a reality globally 2/n #PratapBhanuMehta
2/n Even in India how many Right leaning voices will find even a lateral entry into into left dominated academia, think tanks, NGOs (local and global) and media?That’s why the angst against a handful of institutions(state and private) that provide platform to non-left voices 3/n
3/n Also in corporate India the discomfort with pro-government views is palpable and considered “career limiting”. Honchos who come out supporting #Modi are accused of doing so either because of an agenda or under pressure. Socially, they are mocked and made to feel defensive 4/n

Have been watching the evolution of @DilipGhoshBJP with admiration. Over the last four years he has really come of age and emerged as a leader to reckon with in #WestBengal vindicating his selection as @BJP4Bengal President. #ModiInBengal #Haldia #WestBengalElection2021
2/n PM #NarendraModi takes stage - referring to the #UttarakhandAvalanche drawing a link between the source of the Ganga in #Uttarakhand and its meeting with the sea near #Haldia. #ModiInBengal #WestBengalElection2021
3/n As per @DilipGhoshBJP the gathering is around 3 lakhs from the 3 districts of erstwhile undivided #Medinipur. Impressive mobilisation. Certainly @SuvenduWB's entry would have made a big difference. #ModiInBengal #Haldia #WestBengalElection2021
