Pls Retweet- Samserganj, Murshidabad. I invite the Election Commission of India to come meet its victims and see, on the ground, what this so called “voter purification” exercise is doing to the poorest citizens of this country who also happen to be Muslims. I have covered wars, communal violence, and mass movements. I have never seen anything like this before.

Mr. Democratic@MrDemocratic_·
It’s Sad to see this Report. People are crying, showing their Aadhaar and PAN cards and asking, ‘Are we not citizens of India’ ? This is a Shameful picture for DEMOCRACY. Thank You @khanumarfa for bringing this picture to light.

“Open the road.” Palestinian children protest at barbed wire erected by Israeli settlers in occupied West Bank village of Um al-Khair—calling for their basic right to access their school, move freely, & live without occupation. Imagine your child facing this on the way to class

न ख़ुदा ही मिला न विसाल-ए-सनम, न इधर के हुए न उधर के हुए रहे दिल में हमारे ये रंज-ओ-अलम, न इधर के हुए न उधर के हुए

We are deeply disturbed by @POTUS sharing this hateful, racist screed targeting Indian and Chinese Americans. Endorsing such rants as the president of the United States will further stoke hatred and endanger our communities, at a time when xenophobia and racism are already at an all time high. We ask @realDonaldTrump to reconsider, delete this post & recognize the indelible contributions of Asian Americans to our great country.

People speculating on unprecedented 92 % voter turnout. This figure would have been 83% if 7 million had not been deleted.

2 days before the election in West Bengal, Mamata Banerjee stands on firm ground, heading for a 4th term as CM. Her credibility as an efficient administrator, coupled with targeted welfare for women and the unemployed,has largely neutralized the Bharatiya Janata Party challenge. At this point,it’s hard to see what stops Mamata. The only real concern is the uncertainty around voter deletion in the SIR process, no one knows how that will play out.

Bengal goes to polls. What I saw in Murshidabad shook me to the core. 91 lakh people may not be able to vote. The Election Commission of India has failed the Constitution and the poorest of Bengal. Helicopter media and jhaalmuri media will not show you this. A collective failure!

In solitary with you, Namita ! Stay strong and please know you aren’t alone 🍁🍁

I left for bombay at 6.30 am like the hard working professional that I am & stopped the car at 7 am to make this reel as I’ve long realised that silence is not a virtue & one must speak up when they are disrespected. Yes if wrong things happen at any workplace that are against basic human rights, me & all of us should speak up. I don’t care about the personal trolling, I’m used to it last 5 years since shark tank but the purpose of this reel is to request all the proud Indians in this country to start speaking up when they see something wrong, out of humanity, out of patriotism. Jai hind. Now off to another joyful & complex day at work !

The idea of “Love Jihad” is a profound insult to Hindu women-their dignity&intelligence. It assumes they’re incapable of making their own choices &need saviours. It is a direct attack on women’s autonomy. More than communal propaganda,its abt controlling women not protecting them

Lol. She's been crying non-stop for the last five days just because we fact-checked her. Ironically, for the past five years she kept sliding into my DMs requesting me to share and promote her articles. Glad I never did.
