On Friday, Professor @manojkjhadu, in his speech in Parliament, recommended my book, Allahu Akbar, as a must-read for all. I am delighted and honoured by this mention by such a respectable and conscientious parliamentarian on the floor of the House. Thank you, sir! 🙏

I wish you all Eid Mubarak! It is an incredibly tough time for my Muslim brethren with a war raging in Iran, but I wish you all peace and safety. And in my mother country, I hope to see Rahim and Ram, Yasmin and Yashica, celebrate Eid with hugs. #EidMubarak

Priyanka Chopra's reaction reminds me of the Deewani Mastani song from the film Bajirao Mastani. As Peshwain Bai, she was standing on the balcony and throwing uncomfortable smiles as Mastani Bai (Deepika Padukone) wooed Peshwa Bajirao (Ranveer Singh). Similar expression here.

There is a war in West Asia that has reached India's backyard; the US under Trump is humiliating India at every step; but Narendra Modi is crying himself hoarse about an imagined slight to the President while his home minister is threatening to push out 'ghuspetias'. Priorities!

Deplorable that the office of the President has decided to get involved in the election bound West Bengal. This government has destroyed the sanctity of all offices. But the person who occupies that chair should also have a sense of the dignity of the chair.

Two days after Mr. Modi celebrated his visit to Israel, Israel and the US have begun their joint assault on Iran. This was fully expected given their military build-up in the last few months. Mr. Modi nevertheless chose to go to Israel, where he displayed the highest moral cowardice. He declared that India stood with Israel and got himself an award for saying so. This Israel visit was shameful and it is even more so in light of the war that has been launched by two of Mr. Modi’s 'good friends.’

Amazing! Meat and fish create "violent tendencies" among children! Logic, rationality, scientific temper have all been cast aside for the rapid march of Hindutva!
