How the system and institutions are reacting differently and inconsistently is best illustrated through the developments involving INC’s Rahul Gandhi, AAP leaders and BJP’s Kothapalli Geetha. Let us closely examine in this thread : Smt. P. Geetha Rao @ Kothapalli Geetha, currently a BJP leader, was a Member of Parliament belonging to YSRCP in 16th Lok Sabha representing Araku Lok Sabha Constituency in Andhra Pradesh reserved for Scheduled Tribes. She was in news as the validity of her claim of being a Scheduled Tribe was challenged before various fora. 2n

74-day review (patience requested) :
Yet another example of how a biased report looks like. This particular one is not only aimed at portraying Lalit J as a great achiever but also to run down his predecessor. To achieve this objective, author hides too many facts - read on. 2.
I can understand his inability to highlight the following firsts which are known to every journo who covers the Supreme Court. A first, when journos were asked to get briefing about the Court and office of CJI from a family member (daughter-in-law known as Bahu CJI) !.....

3.
The second puff piece in the series is supplemented with comments from another office bearer of SCBA who is mostly seen in the chambers of those very Registrars. Every serious journalist covering Supreme Court knows this. Yet, you need them to pad up your story. 4.
Why do these advocates, some of whom are office bearers of SCBA, visit the listing Registrars on daily basis ? Certainly not for discussing matters of Constitutional significance, I guess !!

Is it not the duty of the reporter to verify the tall claims made in handouts ?

International Court of Justice (ICJ) judge Justice Dalveer Bhandari says former law minister Late HR Bharadwaj single handedly deserves credit for dignified living conditions of judges of Supreme Court & High Courts in India. His work is unparalleled, says Justice Bhandari 1/n 2/n Justice Dalveer Bhandari says every evening spent with late HR Bharadwaj was a class in education.

Talk to any doctor on COVID duty and all are saying reasons must be made public by MHA & LG on why they have discontinued the most successful method of home quarantine for Covid postivecasymptomatic & mild symptom patients 1/n Doctors say comfortable environment is the best for those who don't require hospitalisation & shifting them will put such patients under unnecessary stress and panic.
Transportation will be an additional problem apart from unjustified load on doctors & medical staff 2/n

Amazing views of Twitter Constitution experts -
Delhi hospitals should be available to all :
* Despite Delhi having been the only govt not to have been given a even penny by central govt in fight against Covid 1/n * There are equal number of beds in Central govt & Delhi govt hospitals in Delhi.
Despite that
* Centre did not declare any of its hospital as a dedicated COVID facility in the national capital. 2/n

Data of top 10 states in India in terms of Covid tests per million shows Delhi is testing far more than states having 5-7 times its population including Maharashtra.
Gujarat despite very low testing has the highest fatality rate.
Govts must be criticised, but on facts 1/n : Facts show no state in India is conducting even half the number of Covid tests as compared to Delhi.
This means the outrage manufactured by those blinded by hatred towards elected Delhi govt had other intentions. Was it to keep private hospitals reserved for the elite ? 2/n

Came across some very angry tweets and motivated criticism obviously with lack of information based on blind hatred on why @SatyendarJain and Delhi govt released Jessica Lal's killer Manu Sharma ahead of his sentence being completed. Let us look at facts in this thread 1/n : First of all, govt cannot release any convict. It is the Court appointed Sentence Review Board which has to review the cases for release as put by jail authorities, in this case the Tihar Jail. First of all let us understand what is the Sentence Review Board (SRB) 2/n

BJP's central govt imposed a burden of Rs 100 crore on Delhi by hiking the CBSE claxx X & XII examination fees simply to take revenge from the Delhi govt 1/n On 22 June 2019, Delhi CM @ArvindKejriwal announced that Delhi govt will pay the full Board exam fees of Class X & XII students of govt schools 2/n

A lot of media friends, including senior editors have asked me why has @ArvindKejriwal headed Delhi govt expressed disappointment at Supreme Court's split verdict on Services & allowing Central control over ACB ? How earlier govts functioned ? I respond in the following thread : At the core of this issue is Modi govt's May 2015 notification, issued barely three months after people of Delhi had elected their govt with highest ever electoral mandate in history of independent India. Through this notification, Modi govt illegally amended the Constitution
