@msisodia, son of a village school teacher, having received very modest education like more than 95% Indians, vowed to himself that if he ever got a chance to improve education system in the country, he would devote himself to it. As a journalist he was the first to answer 1/9
An anonymous ad by @ArvindKejriwal to start 'parivaratan',an NGO for social change. @SatyendarJain was a successful architect & had worked on major projects in the country & wanted to share his expertise.He decided to set aside a well established business to join Anna Andolan 2/9
He fought elections, despite initial opposition from family. @SatyendarJain's visionary ideas & years of experience, resulted in free electricity/water, govt schools, mohalla clinics, govt hospitals, flyovers/bridges, solar energy panels in govt buildings/housing colonies 3/9
Just few of his many achievements, all accomplished well within deadlines & budgets, unlike previous corrupt govts. His structural designs made it possible for @msisodia to infuse the govt school system with fresh energy & drive, earning him accolades around the country/world 4/9
Compare this to any of the @BJP4India run states. Zero vision, seeped in corruption & hate politics. @AamAadmiParty leaders came into politics to GIVE. @BJP4India only STEALS & LOOTS, sucking the very blood/sweat of the citizens, whom @ArvindKejriwal wants to protect & serve 5/9
@ArvindKejriwal's politics has created visionary leaders, who only dream & work towards making the country progressive.@narendramodi's brand of politics creates crooks like @gautam_adani #NiravModi, hateful politicians like @myogiadityanath, destroying homes/lives at will 6/9
If democratic institutions in India were to function, #CBI, @ED, police would not be desperately filing false cases against @AamAadmiParty leaders, which get thrown out in the courts, but REAL cases against @BJP4India thugs, who reek of corruption, without any effort at all 7/9
The corrupt need to be in jail. But @narendramodi can only threaten to jail #RobertVadra to shut up @RahulGandhi. Not a single @INCIndia leader has been jailed/raided by the once jailed @AmitShah. Surely the CBI which failed to find any hidden cash or property on @msisodia 8/9
Would find loads of hidden cash & gold, property if it were to raid a @BJP4India or a @INCIndia corrupt politician & emerge as heroes, instead of lapdogs today ? Is that why @narendramodi feels threatened only by @ArvindKejriwal, not a @RahulGandhi who can be FIXED any day ? 9/9

My contribution to a cover story in The Week' on the #HarshadMehta scam in 1992, as a 22 year old, memory now revived by the #GautamAdani scam! This special edition had sold 30,000 extra copies. It made the careers of so many journalists who seriously investigated the scam 1/6
Unlike today, when journalists are speculating on Adani being "targeted", to emerge unscathed soon. 92 scam led to Mehta being treated like a criminal, investigated & arrested by CBI. 70+ offences, with over 600 civil suits, eventually killing him less than a decade later ! 2/6
Journalists speculating about how @narendramodi is being targeted today, brayed for then congress PM Narasimha Rao's blood & @PChidambaram_IN's resignation ! Banks today are as actively involved as they were then. Big difference is that all names were out in the open then ! 3/6

A thread on ridiculous accusations used to beat up @AamAadmiParty by liberals/@INCIndia that @ArvindKejriwal is anti-Muslim!
For decades this country has been divided into Hindu, Muslims,Christians,Dalits,Adivasis,Rich & Poor, Urban/Rural. Never functioned as a single unit! 1/23
This kind of divide suits ALL parties, whether BJP, Congress, LEFT, TMC, SP, JDU. Never has any political party risen above corruption to address basic needs of the people. Babasaheb’s dream of rich & poor sharing the same school bench at govt cost remained only a dream 2/23
Then comes the political disrupter @ArvindKejriwal who along with his trusted & competent band of ministers decide that they will come up with an education & health model, which will benefit ALL, irrespective of religion, caste & their status 3/23

This is how godi media owing allegiance to @BJP4India & various YouTube channels owing allegiance to @INCIndia fool the viewers/readers with false news about @AamAadmiParty. Since AAP took charge in Delhi in Feb 2015,center took back almost all of powers of the state govt 1/14
Under the guise of it being a UT, granting all powers to the @LtGovDelhi to keep a check on AAP’s people friendly policies.
It was not until October 2018, that the SC returned most of the powers to the state government, still holding back Services, Land, besides the police. 2/14
As a result, @ArvindKejriwal who wanted to build schools. colleges, universities, mohalla clinics & hospitals all over Delhi, in just five years to make up for the deficit of 75 years, were stopped in the tracks by successive LG's. 3/14

The film’s narrative is set around the exodus of the 3 million Kashmiri Pandits from the Valley since January 1990, supposedly to highlight the plight of thousands of them “forced” to flee their hometowns and forced to live the life of a refugee since then
#KashmirFiles 1/18
The dangerous trend however is that the film, in line with the right wing Hindutva agenda, hopes to seek sympathy for the Pandits by demonizing the Kashmiri Muslim. #KashmirFiles 2/18
Decades of insurgency and political callousness has reduced the beautiful, enchanting Kashmir valley into a bloodied mess, hurting both the Kashmiri Pandits, who made up about 5% of the population, before the exodus and the Kashmiri Muslims made up to 95% of the population 3/18

Truth be told, 99% of the journalists in the country, even the most well known ones, do not have the insight to understand what exactly @ArvindKejriwal is doing in Delhi, or what he intends to do in every state that has the courage to vote for AAP now 1/16
Experience, just by virtue of the number of years spent at your desk, does not always mean deep insights. It also means closed mind sets, honed to think in a particular, stuck up way.
@sardesairajdeep's interview with @ArvindKejriwal yesterday is one such prime example 2/16
A Goan journalist mentioned to Rajdeep in @TheLallantop that Goans believe AAP MLA's will not sell out to BJP like Cong. AAP has had a very bad experience with Cong in 2015, when Cong offered outside support to AAP to form the govt but was working hard to make the party sink 3/16

India’s contingent increases in size every Olympics, but the medal tally unfortunately does not. So far we have won only 29 Olympic medals, from the 24 Olympics, (that’s almost a century) that we have participated in 1/16
This number is how many countries like the US and China, make it in just a couple of events in EVERY OLYMPICS.
One of the 29, one got added yesterday by 26 year old weightlifter Mirabai Chanu 2/16
Despite the fact that funding for sports persons has increased vastly in the last two decades, with several private players sponsoring medal hopefuls, like Olympic Quest, started by Prakash Padukone and others, JSW (Jindal South West) Sports group, Mittal Sports 3/16
