BJP IT cell just never stops! Anyway, have to put this out so they can stop with their ugly graphic designs: 1. We are thankful to EVERYONE who is sending help to Goa bc our govt didn't when they had the time. 2. Thankful to @chinukofficial
for reaching out & sending these. 3. Thankful to @VijaiSardesai for arranging people for unloading these cylinders in the middle of a cyclone when no one even picked our calls. 4. We do ZERO monetary transaction with any donor. We are only on ground volunteers providing help from donors to beneficiaries.

Negative & better than yday. 🤞 Stepped out layered with triple masks (just in case) distributing 3,00,000 Litre of oxygen that we received in donation to hospitals in Goa. First the mismanagement of pandemic and now #CycloneTauktae has ravaged Goa.
Our Goa will heal.
These filled cylinders are given to North Goa District Hospital, Borkar Nursing Home, Horizon, Mothercare, RG Hospital & Trimurti hospital. The hospitals have committed to use this ethically for the benefit of disadvantaged. Thank you #DilSeFoundation for all the kindness.

Our petition has asked the State of #Goa to acknowledge and solve the following: 1. Share where are 200 ventilators that were purchased from PM CARES funds being occupied, & since there's a shortage despite that, share the steps to fix it. 2. Make beds availability public.
Not only tell people beds are available, but also specify what types of beds - oxygen, ICU, ventilator, or COVID Care? 3. Acknowledge the crunch of Oxygen, regulators, and even oximeters (that are missing from govt home quarantine kits now). Share the plan of action to fix this.

6 months since I had COVID-19 and it still continues to trouble. Am not a doc so no advices, just my experience & learnings:
If you haven't got it yet: 1. Avoid catching the virus. Wear mask, etc you know the drill.
2. Instead of kadha & random churans, eat very nutritious food according to your body's req. Have multivits if you need. 3. Workout. Do yoga, strength training, breathing exercises

If #SachinVaze, Singh & Deshmukh nexus is shocking to you, here's something from #Gujarat that's going unnoticed in national conversation. Please read this:
▪️A Dalit activist #AmrabhaiBoricha was murdered in a village nr Bhavnagar by Kshatriyas, who had usurped Amrabhai's land
▪️The accused attacked him with swords, spears and rods, killing him infront of his 25 year old daughter & policemen.
▪️Before this attack, he was attacked 13 times by the same people, once breaking his legs. He had requested local police about the threats but was ignored.

Thread: A personal episode from the past that I feel is very relevant to be shared today, especially for parents of young girls.
I was 18, when my first cousin morphed my face with that of a male school friend in extremely compromising position.
Very believable for anyone without knowledge of tech.
I was devastated. This was a brother I looked upto. This was the brother I had given my laptop to so he could apply for jobs. And on the same laptop, he made those photographs of me, his younger sister.

People you're seeing in TV posing as locals of #SinghuBorder are NOT locals. Infact, locals are extremely warm with the protestors. This is what real locals have to say!
No one has a problem with protestors at #SinghuBorder. Who were the ones who came to protest??

Singhu border being vacated is FALSE NEWS. Everything's chill here, they're making arrangements for people from other sites who are being asked to vacate.
No one is vacating the Singhu Border protest site! Police is patrolling. @AltNews@free_thinker@Pooja_Chaudhuri@zoo_bear
Protestors are determined to not leave, despite news of their Union Leaders being "set" by the government. Dinner preparations at langars have begun. Palwal protestors are moving to Singhu and Tikri after police & force was deployed, water was cut off.
What are your views on the Kisaan Andolan after 4-5 incidents of aggression that happened today in #KisaanParade? Has your perception changed?
Sitting with some young people who've been protesting peacefully since 60 days, including today & feel disheartened how today's actions
by some people has taken a very well meaning movement behind by a thousand steps. Your response could help them understand the perception and re-think on their next steps.

Reposting the chats from 2 ABVP & RSS groups am part of. Hiding number, since Twitter India is blocking accounts. #JNUViolence#JNUattack#jnusos@DelhiPolice Isn't this proof of an organised terrorist attack?

I retracted a harassment case today. A thread on why:
Some context - This was 2013, I was in college in Ahmedabad. My friend and I had gone to Bhadra Fort - I went to the Bhadrakali temple while she stayed outside, checking out earrings outside. When I came outside, I saw her
trying hard to get out of hold a man. He was a hawker in the Bhadra market. He held her by the wrist, touched inappropriately and kept saying lewd things. I tried to get my friend out of his clutch so he held me too, repeated. I slapped him and moved back (must have been a funny
