One can only try to understand #NarendraModi's moves in hindsight. It is now clear #JagdeepDhankhar's actions as #WestBengal Governor had the tacit approval of Delhi. So, it is to be expected that the next Governor will follow his footsteps. So, who are the probables? 2/n
2/n Will hazard 3 guesses. #arifmohammadkhan, #mukhtarabbasnaqvi or someone with an Intel/Security background like TN Guv Ravi. Khan and Naqvi coming from minorities background have an edge. Naqvi is fluent in Bengali. He can play the #JagdeepDhankhar role better 3/n #WestBengal
3/n if it is #MukhtarAbbasNaqvi for reasons mentioned above - he will have a larger mandate. What can it be? Only prediction that can be made is that the game in #WestBengal will heat up again in the run up to 2024. Ebar notun "Khela Hobey". #JagdeepDhankhar #MamataBanerjee

The problem with old school politicians (even the younger ones) is #Modi thinks far ahead of them - while they are still stuck in a 60s and 70s construct. That’s why despite opposition #Modi keeps winning. #Agnipath is the latest example. #AgnipathRecruitmentScheme 2/n
2/n Concept of lifetime employment is out of date. A youngster who doesn’t have a job will not turn down an opportunity in a good organisation where he can learn on the job just bcoz it isn’t for life. Key is value-addition thru skills and competency development #Agnipath 3/n
3/n That is why youngsters line up in companies like Tata etc to join as interns or trainees. They know that all of them may not get absorbed but at the end of the term their “market value” would have exponentially increased. #Agnipath 4/n

It's been one year of the #MKStalinGovernment in Recall there was some scepticism. My sense is people are generally satisfied with the level of governance and I would personally rate its performance better than most other states that got new governments in May 2021. #TamilNadu
#MKStalinGovernment 2/n Although one has not seen any "big-bang" moves, the key has been his appointing competent and efficient bureaucrats around him (believe that was the Karunanidhi model too) and @ptrmadurai is an asset providing him the bandwidth for politics. #TamilNadu 3/n
#MKStalinGovernment 3/n Surely, there have been a few stress points on religio-political issues, some isolated controversies and the NEET stand-off But, by and large, the frictions have been less than what one has seen in some other non-BJP ruled states. 4/n #TamilNadu

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

.@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

#VaccinationUpdate: 7.18 lakhs till 11.00 AM. And for those, like me, keeping a keen eye on #MadhyaPradesh - it has crossed 1.4 lakhs already, #Maharashtra at 73 k and #UttarPradesh 50 k. Keep it up India. #VaccinationDrive

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
